FTA:

Ultimately, Anbernic should really consider discontinuing the sale of their devices with pre-loaded pirated games. Yes, this is commonly seen by some as a grey area. Yes, we’re talking about this on a website that promotes the purchase and use of handheld devices for the sake of retro game emulation.

However, selling devices that come with pre-loaded ROMs is much less grey, and should the US classify Anbernic as a ‘superfake’, it could lead to the halt of some or all sales of the companies devices to and within the United States.

The fact the industry is going digital only with licenses that allow purches to disappear with no reimbursement I don't ever see them filling the hole retro gamers are looking for. Personally I have no justification to buy a AAA system. They don't make anything I want. Maybe that is what they should focus on.
