Sega Superscaler games are great and it would be great to see games like Change Lanes and Galaxy Force II, Power Drift

Looks like a pretty good assortment of GenX'ers and Millenials in your staff Tommy. The kind of folks that have a good feel for what the market is looking for in a new home gaming system, and how to design it as well.

 

I wish you and your team the best luck this weekend. You've certainly worked hard on this and already have us all on board with you. Judging by what we know, it should be a success. Rock on!

 

Btw... looking at the competition at Mt.Fuji, it appears there's been a collapse and avalanche of sorts. Go plant that Running Man flag, show 'em how it's done!

Who else is excited to hear about the Amico at E3?

 

Sure I am.

But we should only see the new controller.

Footage will be released in a video in July.

Let's hope we will know more.

Is that the Vintage Woodgrain version?!? :-o

 

I LOVE it! <3

 

Tommy, it will be possible to preorder the Amico?

This is going to get expensive for me. So far my order of preference is:

Woodgrain

Black (this should just be referred to as the Tron variation)

White

Purple

Red

That black one and the wood grain look pretty cool. Hopefully you can change color of the lighting.

 

 

It can change within games.

I really like the black but also really wanted a woodgrain Amico. I don't think the woodgrain one here looks that wood or grainy but when the actual physical item is produced, that may change.

Love them all though :)

But pictures are not like the real thing, so I can change my mind when I will have them in front of me ! :)

I saw the colors, I wish there was a pink version. The purple one is more purple than anything else.

 

I also like the woodgrain and the red black ones too!

Wood grain for me!! Love it! The "Tron" black and blue is pretty nice too.

 

Great job.

I'm loving the red one; my wife has her eyes on the purple one.

 

We might buy extra controllers just so each has their favorite colors.

As an Intellivision II guy, I have to go with the red variation as that is the most like the Deuce.

 

In order of preference:

1. Carbon Fiber Red

2. Old School Woodgrain

3. Tron

4. Prototype White

5. 10 Year Old Girl's Bicycle Fun Colors

post-35882-0-36282000-1560231475_thumb.jpgMaybe we can use the rarest wood in the world for a "real" wood grain?

Looks like Brazillian Rose Wood... which would be a cool print and have a deeper meaning to the Amico.

 

But I'll settle for the standard looking Ethan Allen colonial stained wood furniture and nautical fabric print we all had back in the late 70's. Lol.

Woodgrain looks great as do the black and white. Purple needs a different LED color from the blue shown in the pics, but maybe.

The led changes color depending on the game you are playing
