Consider it DONE!!

His name wouldn't happen to be Tony would it?



 

Nope, Patrick, but he is Italian 😉. I think he used to leave work early to watch you and Victor. But of course, this has nothing to do with the Amico Q and A, so I will ask a question on his behalf:

Will there be Tommy Tallarico bobble heads, action figures, or at least a Funko Pop figure, preferably wearing an Amico t-shirt?

Hey Tommy,

Not to change the subject, but here is a question that I have and hopefully it hasn't been asked.  I'm colorblind, not black and white and shades of grey.  But pretty bad, I have trouble with simple games like Candy Crush (okay, no hating).  Any chance that there will be an setting to change up colors, or try to use symbols along with colors?  People hate when I try to play FPS, I often times shot my own team.

thanks

Yes... and you thought the 6 Million Dollar man action grip was cool??

Wait till you see the Ding Ding kicking action on mine!

🤮

PLEASE help us to change the subject!!  Hahahaha!

Yeah... we actually have a section in our game design bible about this.  Colors will be important for some of our games... and it those instances we try to show other ways to incorporate letting people identify things that are important in gameplay.

If you are concerned about gender violence and video game characters without clothes, you might want to be careful with the Intellivision properties you update...

I think Beauty and the Beast would be a perfect game where the player can pick from different genders and mixed with a style like the box cover it would be a real unique looking game.

Ok Tony buddy... time to put you out of your misery as you have become super annoying to everyone in here and these posts of yours give zero substance to this thread (except to once again prove that folks like you are a lost cause and easy to embarrass.) 

Because I'm unable to post pictures of female and male genitalia...  Here's a link to a discussion about just ONE of the games that show full frontal nudity on the Switch.
(Super interesting that the parent who asked the question assumed that Nintendo would have not allowed it... this has been my point from the beginning.  I was shocked to discover this kind of stuff existed on the Switch as well).
 

Here's an article showing how another game eventually had to be PULLED from the U.S. e-shop store because of the x-rated nature including full frontal nudity.  The game was available as an x-rated game on the Switch in the U.S. but when they wanted to do a physical copy of the game they needed to get an ESRB rating... so they ended up pulling it from the U.S. shop.  The game WAS on the Switch in the U.S. and STILL REMAINS AS IS (X-rated) in other countries (which the article references).

Tony... There is full frontal nudity on the Switch.  And you've embarrassed yourself beyond belief.  Of course we all know you're not man enough to apologize... hell... you don't even have the nuts to admit you called me a liar after I called you out on it. 

I have at least 10 more examples... but these are good enough to bury you.  I didn't even get into the rape.

Now I know you're going to write some super long diatribe about how you're right and I'm wrong and then you'll find some kind of super grey area that you'll cling on to for dear life ("These games don't count because of... blah, blah, blah).  So go ahead and waste more of your time and make yourself look even worse.

Although, I'll give you once last chance to apologize if you'd like and call it "water under the bridge" in hopes that you've learned a very important lesson here today.

Hoping for the best... but not holding my breath.

 

 

I'm....speechless that you would use One Angry Gamer as a credible source of information.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAHAHAA!!!!!!!

You're a real piece of work guy.

I wasn't expecting that answer.  Even dumber and more embarrassing than I thought.

I'll give you this... you never cease to surprise.

Good thing I don't subscribe to this thread.

Or my email would be full.

Can you guys stop arguing, like little boys in a schoolyard?  And where are my TPS reports?

Tony could not help himself from bringing up politics again, so he won't be participating anymore.

I think it's time for you two to start a private thread ... in other words

Wanted to make sure folks saw the latest TJ video about spells, dice rolling and the Amico controller.

Great ideas and I think he's on to something! 

 

 

 

Thank you for posting a link to my video @Tommy TallaricoTallarico

I can't wait to play D&D on the Amico.

"Amico... Spell of Amicos for everyone!".😜

I'm done with him.  Gave him one last chance but he couldn't handle it.

I'm speechless that you would expend this much activist energy on an entertainment device. Amico is not going to stop a nuclear holocaust.🙄

Watching this thread devolve gave me a great idea for a casual, competitive Amico game --  Pissing Contest.

Or to keep it family friendly, it could be named "Urinating Competition."

Damn... just when I was going to start ignoring him.

How far can Amico can go at representing firearms and explosives and stay at E10+? Like say you guys were going to do a Zombie game. What's the line you could walk with something like that? Is it just in the death animations?  

Well now we can get back to the important discussion of ding ding kicking. 

I for one would deeply appreciate NOT being kicked in my ding ding, but that's just me. 😆

I check in during the halftime show during the Superbowl and there's pages of this nonsense. How the heck can we police this crap? It's almost like we all need to take a step back and enjoy a taco.

Hum. I can't seem to add a picture of a taco. Is that because there can only be one thread with tacos?

You can "shoot" things as long as it isn't depicted in a violent way.  Which includes blood, body parts flying off, pulsating bodies, etc.  So shooting something and it disappearing is no problem.
