If my games from the first psvr were backwards compatible, I would have bought one already.
Now I’m waiting to get one for cheaper.
This was such a bad decision by Sony. Maybe there was a technical reason why it couldn’t be back-compat, but if there was any way they could have done it, they should have.
It doesn’t help that Sony is supporting it like it’s the Vita’s ugly cousin. If they made good games for it, people would buy it. Those who don’t get motion sick at least.
Given how much of a janky mess the original psvr was, my money is definitely on technical problems in making compatability actually work to an acceptable level for a commercial release. Because the only thing worse than not releasing compatability would be doing it badly, such that increased support issues and development costs would outweigh however many people would buy it.
