    Firmware's built-in ROM downloader linked to piracy

    Anbernic firmware 1.0.6 included the RixelHK app, which could directly search for and download game ROMs; it was criticized as a piracy channel and withdrawn within hours. Its devices often ship with memory cards containing pirated ROMs, and an Italian blogger was investigated by police for reviewing its devices. Firmware withdrawn.
