Cerny said in the original presentation, unless I'm mistaken.
The Road to PS5 at 27:03
That's a fairly bleak outlook you've got there... Our expectations of what Sony will actually deliver at launch must be somewhat different.At the time he was referring to having tested the top 100 as by game time, possibly with a boost, and they Expect almost all of them to work day one. After that there was questions about is that all that will be BC and their vague response was they expect the vast majority of PS4 games to be playabel on PS5... but the clear ommision of when, hence the question. If it's a 7 year generation they could be adding titles every month for years, unless they all just work in a base mode...but they've not confirmed any of it.

I expect almost all titles to work in P4S4, or PS4 Pro legacy mode at launch. Let's wait and see
The big BC question for me is whether we'll get anything on PS1-3, on which I’m not holding my breath!
Whre have they said day 1.....?
You won't but PS Now is the place to stream PS2/3 games at least.
Kinda hoping they’ll have sorted something and they’ll be downloadable.
They do have to sort something out for PS3 as the hardware solution they have for PS Now servers is unsustainable.
I'm hoping you're right and have put that as a possiible, but if so, why didn't they say that in the press release (after Cerny created some confusion), which was supposed to shed more light on their BC.
The other problem is they've said if any issues arise the devs would need to resolve them (unlike MS's process), and as mentioned before, many just wouldn't invest time and money unless there's potentil DLC sales from it or a sequel in the works and worthwhile to generate franchise interst etc.
The technical solution for PS5 BC is not the same as XBO.
Cerny's talk created some confusion as to whether the Top 100 being tested was for boost mode or BC. This was then clarified, somewhat, on the blog with the “vast majority of” statement.
Sure, they haven’t clarified every detail as they’ve barely talked about BC, but Cerny has outlined what the solution is and with that in mind you could equally ask, why wouldn’t it work?
The caveated scope is not dissimilar to Xbox's - “it is our intention that” all titles will be BC. No absolute guarantees. Why? Because there are some real pieces of crap with game breaking bugs on both stores and they don’t want to be accountable for fixing it if it’s broken on nextgen
If they announce Demon's Souls as a launch title they will get my attention.
