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!   :D

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!

:D

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.

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.

Thank you,

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

Is the "running man" pole dancing?   Twerking?  

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

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