Before I start, let me just say that I don't have a PS3 and I don't have the skills to pull off what I'm about to talk about.
Okay, I was just curious... do the new PS3s have the same motherboard as the old ones, just minus the PS2 Emotion Engine chip? If so, would it be possible for someone to take apart a broken PS2 and move said chip to a newer PS3 and then downgrade the firmware to a version supported by one of the models that came with the Emotion Engine?
I thought a better way would be an update later on to add software emulation to newer systems.
I always hoped it was removed just because either a.) It was inefficient and caused problems, or b.) PS2 still drew a crowd and money from PS2 sales.
Either of these reasons would be fixed with time, and maybe make them add the software compatibility in an update (Just like the Xbox 360 added Xbox compatibility in an Update).
