- ANBERNIC has started removing optional microSD card bundles from several handheld listings on its official store.
- The changes follow an ESA complaint accusing ANBERNIC of selling devices bundled with unauthorized games.
- ANBERNIC hasn’t confirmed a connection, but the move may be intended to head off further action against the company.
ANBERNIC has had quite a week. After recently unveiling its Nintendo 3DS-inspired RG DDS handheld — whose potential pricing was leaked earlier today — the company found itself facing scrutiny over the copyrighted games allegedly bundled with its devices. Within days of the complaint coming to light, ANBERNIC now appears to be quietly removing the contentious microSD card options from its online store.
As spotted by Retro Handhelds, several ANBERNIC handheld listings have lost the option to purchase additional microSD cards alongside the devices. The publication compared an archived version of the RG SP listing from August 14 with the current storefront, finding that only the 16GB option remains. That card is still needed because it contains the handheld’s stock firmware.
