ony Japan is trying to patent an invention that would solve backwards compatibility problems on PS3.
The device - a new generation to previous generation console adapter - is external and has its own processor, DVD encoder/emulator, sound chip and graphics chip. It connects to what appears to be a PS3 (memory cards, joypads and discs are all shown beside it) via a cable.
Eurogamer's Digital Foundry blog is investigating further.
But don't get your hopes up, as this is only an application for a patent - nobody's actually said yes, as as Siliconera pointed out.
Sony Europe gave Eurogamer a flat "no comment."
