I don't think this is entirely true.

Sure, there was nothing like the Net Yaroze, but the PS2 came with Yabasic[1] on the demo disk and had a Linux distro[2], and the PS3 also had a Unix support[3].

While some of this might have been for tax benefits, I still think it fits in the spirit of Net Yaroze.
