i soppose the main issue about selling it would be the price. For example loads of people were wanting a ps3 when it came out but then when they heard the price they thought well maybe its a bit to much for my standards.
And would anybody really be that interested in it? Hey it might be the best console but ive already got a console and im fine with that thank you very much, could be a response from many people.
Could you imagine having backwards compatibilty for the ps3, ps2, 360, wii, gamecube, and the rest of the companys consoles ? Yet do you think it would be possible ?
i was just thinking about it and thought i would share... =D

Because emulation inherently carries an overhead. In emulation all you're doing is making software perform tasks that ordinarily hardware would do. Naturally software is much slower and the only way to compensate is for the platform running the emulation to be much faster than the original hardware its emulating. Hence why modern machines can emulate old (slower) hardware such as the megadrive/n64 etc.
If you wanted to build something that would emulate modern platforms the cost would be so prohibitive there would simply be no point.
