Not much info here but I wonder if these were some sort of fake NES/SNES/Mega Drive minis or just handheld emulation devices in general

I was wondering if shipping SD cards full of ROMs would ever come to bite the manufacturers in the ass and I guess it might have. Will this be a one-off thing or a sign of a wider EU crackdown? I think there was a warning earlier issued by some agency this month about how the solder in one of the Anbernic devices exceeded EU’s maximum lead levels

Edit: There’s a video of the Italian cops’ raid on the warehouse where the devices were being held, looks like a large variety of different devices

    thank god! i don’t know how many nights of sleep have been lost over that whole fiasco. the amount of profits that some non-existing companies probably could have missed out on is unthinkable
