What is that, could you explain? Is it like Nintendo did on VC where they spread out 50 frames over 60hz which induced stuttering?
I don't know exactly since I've never used Nintendo's VC however it sounds the same.

It probably needs to be something that's low maintenance, easy to throw in, lasts across generations, and ends up being kind of "fire and forget" as it can just keep making money when something makes those games get some attention. Situations where it ends up not continuing to next platform (or worse, something like this or 3DS happens) probably does more to discourage buying in than not, certainly I didn't care as much on 3DS and on PS4 I wasn't as inclined to buy "for the sake of having it" as I was on PS3.It's tough. I'm not sure this sort of thing can make money the way it is currently done.
Virtual Console isn't what it used to be. I don't think MS makes much money off of this sort of thing either.
Oh, it's awful on WiiU VC, it completely destroys the visuals, constant stuttering.I don't know exactly since I've never used Nintendo's VC however it sounds the same.
No one cares about trophies.
Charge me $50 so I can put my PS2 discs in my PS4. It's not like that emulator is being used at all.
Came in to say this.
Sell an emulator that will authenticate and boot legit PS1 and PS2 games.
Like when they do those crazy price slashes in the holiday, MS isn't doing it to make money - it's to lock people to their ecosystem which is their biggest worry this gen.Virtual Console isn't what it used to be. I don't think MS makes much money off of this sort of thing either.
I don't see any reason why Sony can't.Would it even be possible to add PS2 disc based BC for the PS4? Just wondering. I'd love that.
I think the difference is that Microsoft, outside of licensing, does all the work for the pub/dev. Whereas Sony requires the pub/dev to put in extra work to increase resolution/performance and include trophies on top of licensing.just put games up people care about
i mean geez microsoft is constantly getting new titles on BC, why can't sony

Silent hill aside, wouldn't it better to bring the ps3 remasters of those instead of the originals?It's not about saving or whatever. Just give us games to buy. Games that people actually want to buy. Stuff like Ico/SOTC, SIlent Hill 2/3, MGS2/3, Okami, etc.

I like the trophies tooIm surprised people want trophy support dropped. Its literally the only reason Im buying them. If anything should be dropped is the updated graphics. Old games don't need them.
Trophies give the game purpouse and replayability imo. Why else would a play a game a 100% 10 years ago.

But looks like add the trophies is one of the reasons why they took so long to release new games
If this is true, just drop the trophies

If they do that then a lot of people won't buy them. But if they keep them games will take long to come out? It's a lose/lose situation then.
If people have problems with trophies then go buy a ps2/ps3 for a fraction of the price and play your games on that. Why should I as a gamer be incovenienced by your choices? Why can't we have both? And more. Man, people are so entitled and don't give a toss about others and how they play.
Just buy a damn PS2.
Have you hooked a PS2 up to a modern tv lately? It looks disgusting. The PS4 is a powerful system, theres no way that it couldnt handle PS2 emulation right out of the box.

You're basically describing how Bleemcast worked. Their plan was to release it in volumes, with each volume allowing you to boot about 100 PS1 games. As we all know, Sony nuked the idea from orbit.I've always wondered about the possibility of someone just selling an official emulator for like $50 or $60 that would just play any disc or ISO you put into it. Like, what if SEGA put together and sold a Dremacast emulator for a modern console or something like that?
For that to happen though the company would have to give up on reselling individual games. It would have to reach a point where porting or testing each individual game versus how much money they'd make on each of those games, isn't worth it compared to selling one emulator for a higher price. How many people would buy that emulator? The population of people who hold onto those discs is probably a minority.
Worse.I noped right out when I saw that they were sub-1080p.
Is that still the case?
They actually need to do this since many games make use of analogue face buttons.Now I want a wireless Dualshock 2. My ps2 works great.
Edit: ... which would be a dualshock 3. Duh. I want a ps2 ds3 adapter!
Games made in 2017 have trophies and achievements baked into the design process. It's probably harder to look at 15 year old games and find arbitrary goals that aren't just "level complete"^
Yep. Such a dumb requirement and it completely makes PS2 on PS4 a joke with what they have right now.

Using Sega releasing an emulator for their own games is an interesting thought. Could the PS4 even read the special 1gb DC disc format? I feel like Sony wouldn't like it, they would want the sweet licensing fees from individual game releases.
Worse.
No bilinear filtering so 2D games look awful. Also messed up aspect ratios in some games (GTA trilogy, just so the shitty in-game cropped widescreen will fill up the whole screen).
