Tommy,

 

can/will the racing games have different controls? For instance, I would like an option to have realistic vs intuitive steering.

 

Jeffrey

Pretty sure... yes.

Hahaha!

For some strange reason... I thought the BEST part of this was Frog Bog in the bottom left!

Interestingly enough, Frog Bog was the most fun part to make. One of the earlier draft versions had a UPS Dog holding an Amico controller wearing a shark suit.

Thanks @CurlyQ - Just seeing it is the best argument yet for front corner. Would look awesome like that on a collector shelf or in the entertainment center

I dont know why it took me so long to realize this.

I am getting ready to go grocery shopping and I have my Amico shirt on.

I grab my Intellivision hat that I also purchased and think to myself"Does IE have an Amico hat they are selling among the merchandise in their store?".

I looked and they do not,at least not yet anyway.

That would be another instant purchase for me. I almost always wear a ball cap of some sort and love wearing intellivision video game shirts and gear. I try to self advertise for the upcoming system when I can.

I was surprised to realize that there is no hat yet. Just curious!🤔

Thank-you for continuing to help spread the news!

An Amico hat is on our "to do" list for sure.

Shills Unite!

Man,Ellen sure is amazingly attractive to this day.

Her girlfriend is pretty cute too!

So being an Atari lynx fan by far my favorite game on there is California Games surfing.  Im currently playing it. Any chance of a surfing game like this would be on the Amico?  100% would purchase it. Also love your ideas on how it could be done as a multiplayer

I loved Surfing off California games as well as Footbag/Hackisack.

Both games would be great additions to the Amico library someday.

Please keep politics from this thread or I'm going to start removing posts.

I never knew a golden ticket was included with a founder's edition order. I did not get one.

The golden ticket comes with the merchandise you buy from the IE website's shop.  Such as the T-Shirt & mug.  I don't think a golden ticket comes included with the FE.

I am with @Intellivision Master plus I asked Tommy specifically about this - barring oopses people only got them for merch orders (plus that has been my personal experience too)

I got my RFID cards a few weeks ago. I remember because the To: and From: on the envelope looked like it was hand-written by a little kid, lol.

The paper RFID cards were given to folks who ordered merchandise from our online shop.

Did I miss something? I don't see any politics on the last pages. Was any message removed? 😇

That is a Utopia Rebel - I always imagined it was a running soldier with a gun. Not something you want to appear on your island but cool on a T-shirt

Whoa! I've ordered a number of things but always got teh 'Keep this golden ticket' version. Maybe those other versions were added later.

That is just @CurlyQ 's awesome photoshopping skills, with CurlyQ "pics or it didn't happen" is pretty meaningless
