You're wrong, the Sony Playstation was originally pencilled to use cartridges too, so why would it originally be a CD addon for SNES?

the ps3 will be able to play ps1, ps2, ps3 and psp games! 

I read in an article that the ps3 won't be backwards compatible with ps one games.
It wasn't an article on the net so I can't give you a link.I read in in OPM2(dutch version)

edit:found an article on the net about it.

Recent tidbits have flowed from several Websites indicating that the PlayStation 3 will be backward compatible with PlayStation 2, but not with PS one. So, the PS2 is backward compatible with the PS one, and the PS3 will be backward compatible with the PS2, but not PS one. Additionally, Sony plans to have only two systems in the market at one time, so once the PS3 gets swinging in 2005, it'll drop production on PS one.

No, he's correct. Sony was developing the CD drive for Nintendo, but when they abandoned it, Sony decided to release it as their own stand alone console. So in effect, Nintendo is responsible for creating it's own biggest competitor. That's a fact.
