Alot of people don't want to go thru the hassle of setting up an emulator (even though it's not hard) and I'm sure it would bring in money.
If say... Sony came out with a Steam type of app where you could buy old Ps1/Ps2 games, I don't see how it would fail. However, none of the companies have done it yet so there must be a reason?
