No, you cannot. If you want to play PS2 games, why not just get a PS2 instead of a PS3. Playstation 2 games will play a lot better on the PS2, they are far less stable on the PS3, since it just emulates the PS2 system to play the games. Plus, the PS3 costs $600 or more, while the PS2's price has really dropped down since the release of the PS3. And new games are still coming out on playstation 2.

The answer to your question is "NO". Playstation games are for playstations, XBox games are for XBox, And Nintendo games are for Nintendos, etc. There's no such thing- if it was like that then No one will be making money with all these game systems. Nintendo & Sony Playstation are two different companies, they won't allow you to play other companies games on their system.Plus their competing against eachother.... You can buy a Playstation 2 the price for the sysytem has dropped, it costs about $125, & they still have plenty of games for it- the Playstation 3 costs from $500-$600 & that's pretty expensive. Sorry!

On the wii you can play gamecube game, the playstation games won't work on the wii, because a wii is made by nintendo and the playstation was made by sony.

No you can not because PlayStation is owned by Sony and wii by Nintendo. Also if you could you could not control the character because a wii uses a different controller.

Now, you can't. However programmers have made a playstation emulator for the xbox, so they could make one for the wii

NO, they are two different companies(Sony PLAYSTATION and Nintendo WII). Also I don't think the Wii has a large enough drive, I think they use mini-Cds still.

ummm maybe if you have the right software on your computer you can play playstation and wii games, but then you'd have to call your pc a wii
so technically yes, or you could say look i can play wii games on my playstaion, if you call your pc a playstation, its up to how you call it

No, of course not. Why would a company allow a rival company's games to be played on their own machine?

ummmm....no. Sony and Nintendo are competing against each other, why would they make a system that is compatible for both? that would be like giving money away.
