A quick check of the docs (always a good idea...) shows that the yaroze
is indeed little endian:

The PlayStation uses a custom CPU based on the R3000 (33 MHz) 32-bit RISC CPU (little endian).

Now I come to think about it I can remember having to do byte swaps
in code written for Irix and Linux (in one or other of them).
