I'm struggling to see the logic behind the PS4's very mediocre selection in it's PS online shop versus the PS3's. I got a PS4 this christmas and it's basically my first playstation console ever. I'm not sure what to do seeing as how there are plenty of PS3 and PS1/PS2 games I'd like to play that are on PS3/PS3's online store and not on PS4's at all.
Could they be doing this on purpose so as to still encourage people to buy PS3s? That is the only reason i could think of. Also, if the rumors i heard are true about the PS4's hardware having built-in PS3 emulation, then would it be wise as a CAG to put off buying a PS3 in case Sony has backwards compatibility plans up their sleeve, similar to what Microsoft did at E3?
For example, I really want to play through all of the Final Fantasy games. They're all available for PS3/PS3 online, and only a small handful of final fantasy games are available with PS4. Being a CAG, it's also difficult for me to see physical PS3 games I want for $20~ all over, yet at the same time not wanting to buy a whole new console since I can totally see sony revealing backwards compatibility this E3 or so to compete with microsoft.
All thoughts are appreciated
