No, there is no way you can really backdoor anything with that, at all. And I wouldnt really call them homebrewed games because of the fact that you are just literally changing the story and images. Homebrewed = Coding on your part. Thats just sticking images and text in set places. And these type of things have been around forever. There were around 3 of these type of things for the playstation, and I think there is one for the PS2. Also there was a very basic one for the N64 if I remember correctly.

Not from the looks of it. The only real thing the user is able to "input" per say is images and text.

I forgot what it was, but I distinctively remember playing something of this ilk on PC that was released in ~92-93 |

tfa mentioned the ability to create quiz games and the like, as well as programming skills, so my best guess is that it will have a rudimentary scripting system - nothing more complex than "square 00012 = tree31; square 00013=monster22", so don't get your hopes up on backdooring it. the best thing we could hope for is that the thing allows us to import custom tiles, which will end up in momory. In that case there's a chance that someone will figure out how to make a trojan tile and launch a 1x1 map with it in order to execute it, although considering the fact that they have 1.8GB of space for this crap on the UMD, 32mb on the memory card, and a bunch of dumb users who can't photoshop worth a damn, I don't think even that will be possible.
Then again, I can't hack my way out of a wet paper bag, so we'll see what people do with this.

Someday they will crack the protection or find a "Backdoor"
Nearly anything is possible, it just takes time.

Of course, but we are saying that this particular piece of software will basically not allow something like that.
