The knob to the lever was rubbed off to where they couldn't throw the lever into launch! Parts shortage from covid means they haven't had a knob to replace it. I hear they will have a new knob soon per Amico Forever. Shove off, you knobs! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stop judging them for something that isn't finished. They give you a sneak peak (see that innuendo joke I did there) into the behind the scenes to go on this wonderful journey. If you just want to spread MISINFORMATION I am asking you to ease leave because you are mocking their business plan. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It should though. No reason this doesn't deserve that attention too. Can we play a game of spot the contradiction? 🧐 Would be interesting to hear your take on AA hiding the Amico Forum.

They took the month off. Covid had nothing to do with that software and firmware could have still be worked on. Which was not ready take 10/10/2020. So they not only said hey you aren't getting a console, but also thanks for the money to take a month off from working on the product that just missed its first launch date. Also for anyone who cares. Intellivision has officially abandoned their patent as of today. But hey they still have that trademark. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They just used the haters as a distraction to all of their innept handling of everything. They pretty much disrespected anyone rooting for them. Selling those dumb boxed editions is evidence of that. They sold those to get money knowing they wouldn't have a console anytime in the near future. This is just an example of them stringing along anyone that would allow them. How long of a time frame is, "or so"? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt_B Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 The thing that confuses me is how you'd power an Apple II and an Intellivision when you're living in a car under a pier on a beach. 😀 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I took an extended break from closely following the Amico saga and I'm moderately amazed that they are still operating. Considering their finances, I'm genuinely surprised that they can sustain even a skeleton crew of personnel. I've been playing "Art of Rally", lately, which is a nice little stylized racing game. It's another reminder that retro-style games are alive and well, with or without the Amico. I need to pick up, "Children of Morta", the next time it goes on sale. It seems like it has some of the charm / game-play of "Cloudy Mountain" with what appears to be greater depth. Just throwing out there that Art of Rally on Switch is on sale now for $15, and Children of Morta has a free demo. Good stuff, thanks for the recommendations! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was at least owned by him. The product description makes me think it still is his. https://bid.vegalleries.com/Super-NES-Emulator-SE-Developer-Kit_i46346793 The SNES Series X.
