Pretty sure PS4 BC was already confirmed for PS5. The real question is how far back the BC extends. I'd love to be able to play my previously purchased PS1/PS2 Classics or even PS1/PS2 discs on PS5. @Dezzy@CanisWolfred
Just show me some fast loading and maybe some upscaled PS4 games via BC. Not one to care about teraflops and whatnot, just whatever end result they achieve

I looked into it, and it does seem like they're aiming for full backwards compatibility, judging by some patents, and a comment from Sony suggests that they're currently testing to see whether or not it's possible. I'm hoping for the best, at least.
If I can download my full PSN library, I wonder if that'll include games that were removed due to license issues, like Scott Pilgrim and Marvel vs. Capcom 2? I'm in no hurry to replace my PS3, but should the worst happen, I'd hate to think those games would be lost forever someday...

I didn't think it had been confirmed.
PS3 games is what I want. Don't care if it's emulated and you need to rebuy them, or if it's based on the original discs. I never had a PS3 so still haven't been able to play games like Demon's Souls and MGS 4. This would massively add to the value of the console for me, and would guarantee I go with Playstation rather than Xbox for the next gen.
