I take it you haven't read the original article.He talks about SG2 and SSF5 allowing it but wouldn't the option to use an older stick be up to the console maker rather than the game maker?
Sony has already confirmed that developers can allow older peripherals to work with their games.
There's already a precedent set on the PS3 with Gran Turismo 5 where every update adds support for more and more racing wheels that the PS3 would normally not recognize.
