Well, PlayStation has historically been more than just a console. PS1 was a killer CD player, PS2 a great DVD player, PS3 a “cheaper” Blu-Ray player, and we all know the PS4’s media capabilities.

So, PS5 being more than “just” a console is a gimme. Sony’s always tried to future proof their consoles with their media capabilities.

No it doesn't. It needs to play games and play blurays and that's it. If you want a ground breaking feature then why not let us download day 1 patches for games we
Don't have installed. That would save so much time.

Even if they do crack down all a person needs is an Everdrive and a regular old school machine. Or modify a disc based console that has a dead laser to boot off an SD card. Some of those illegal devices look neat and some of them are just plain crap.

What a stupid thing to be wasting time, money and effort. Aren't these guys literally drowning right now? Maybe y'all should focus more on that instead trying to stop people from playing old games no longer being sold.

Pretty sure I've read and seen parts of Italy experiences/ing pretty bad floodings. Id argue that's more important than trying to prevent the sale of emulation devices.
