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

Around 12,000 consoles with 47 million games

No. That is incorrect. Each console had a few thousand games, and you did bullshit math to make that sound worse. Each copy of a rom does not count as an individual video game, that’s an insane way to measure things.

But what about those Famicom cassettes on which it is written "9999999 games in 1!"?
