The Xperia Play had little to no support from the main Sony corp. At the time they were still operating under Sony Ericsson and kept the Play as a seperate entity to the Playstation brand. It was effectively an Android phone with a built in controller. There was virtually nothing extra, and it was underpowered compared to the top phones of the time (I know, I had one). Now there's the possibility of a properly supported Playstation phone but I wouldn't hold my breath.
Anyway, my point is, no one's actually tried this with a decent level of support (both in terms of marketing and software).
