The predominant theory is that Sony has removed legacy hardware from the device. There were physical chips on the board that allowed for software emulation. Once those chips were removed the software ceased to actually work. Like having gasoline and no car to put it in. Without that hardware the software is useless. Sony probably saved themselves something on the order of twenty dollars on the legacy chips.
