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.
I feel the same, but apparently there’s a quite a few people buying handhelds off of Tiktok and Amazon who get super pissed when they get something that requires set up and ROM loading, which encourages manufacturers to pre-load.
Oh god, the tech illiterate ignoramuses will ruin piracy for us all
They are always the ones who mess it up. It becomes popular because its “easy.”
