> With fewer than 25,000 units sold, the Gizmondo was named by GamePro as the worst selling handheld console in history.[8] > The Gizmondo was further overshadowed when Swedish press revealed criminal pasts of several executives, causing their resignations including Tiger Telematics CEO Carl Freer. Director of Gizmondo Europe Stefan Eriksson was involved in a Swedish criminal organisation, the "Uppsalamaffian" (the Uppsala mafia).[9] By February 2006, the company was forced into bankruptcy after amassing US$300 million debt, and the Gizmondo stopped production.[10] Weeks thereafter Eriksson crashed a rare Ferrari Enzo driving at 260km/h in California,[11] and was later jailed and subsequently deported for driving under the influence in connection with the crash and other criminal offenses.
