I had so much fun running homebrew on my PSP. That ecosystem is something that could never happen on purpose. You had a massive electronics company with some good 1st party IP and adoption from 3rd party vendors building software for a not-too-unpopular architecture (MIPS). Then it turned out this WiFi-enabled device had fairly poor security, which meant hardware that was already in the hands of tons of people gained a second software delivery channel.
People have tried many times to capture that with purpose-built open devices. But they don't have the money behind them to reach critical mass.
