My point is that it will bomb, not everyone has $600 to spare for a console and +$70 games add that to the fact the PS3 cant play PS1 or PS2 games and you've got yourself a bad deal. I like the PS1 and the PS2 but this was just a bad idea this is how Sega bombed when they released the Sega Saturn.
Clearly, enough people can afford the PS3 so far, every one of them is sold out!
When those who can afford it for 600 all have it, the price will drop.
Furthermore, backwards compatibility is far from the most important thing with the PS3. I already have 3 machines that can play my PS1 games, and 1 that can play my PS2 games.
