A little bird told me that the new Amico Major League Baseball game might include some hidden unlock-able players.

 

 

500 base hits will unlock @OEB_Pete (playable only as a Montreal Expo) using this code: .... .- ...- . / .- -. / .- -- .. -.-. --- / -.. .- -.-- ..--.

 

To unlock these codes you must copy and paste them into the Online Morse Code Translator.

 

OEB Pete's traits will include the following:

 

- Throws 106 MPH fastballs
- Yells 'BONUSODE!' 'BONUSODE!' whenever he strikes an opponent out
- Sells shirts for charity during the 7th inning stretch

 

100 home runs will unlock @The Atari Creep (playable only as a Boston Red Sox) using this code: -.-. .-. . . .--. / .. - / .-. . .- .-.. ..--.

 

Atari Creeps traits will include the following:

 

- Has an arm like a canon and a golden glove
- Hits for power (his bat may or may not be corked)
- Drops F-Bombs whenever he strikes out (Amico will take liberties and 'bleep out' the strong language)

 

5 in-the-park home runs will unlock @Tommy Tallarico (playable only as a New York Yankee) using this code: .-- --- ..- .-.. -.. -. .----. - / - .... .- - / -... . / ... --- -- . - .... .. -. --. ..--..

 

What would Tommy's traits be?

 

Steals bases by running under the tag.

Throws bean balls to anyone named Pat or Ian.

Wears a Spiderman uniform.

So....an actual physical game cartridge/SD?   Or some RFID business type looking card that you swipe over a reader?

They were suppose to reveal more information this summer, but, like a lot of things, that got delayed.  Expect the RFID tag to be in some sort of collectable for kids of all ages including, possibly, collector cards.  The only media that's been mentioned so far is the RFID tag, which can't hold much data.

What would Tommy's traits be?

 

Tommy, stylized as a baseball player:

-versatile fielder, who can hit to all fields (making sure everyone's in on the action)

-natural leader, his constant upbeat chatter tends to rattle his opposition (sometimes to the point they forget the rest of his team)

-rock solid fundamentals. Both student and master of the game

-very knowledgeable. For instance, he'd never get Alfonso Soriano's number wrong (looking at you, High Heat 2003)

As an added bonus, live concerts after day games! Still working on getting Bob Uecker out of the radio booth in Milwaukee for a tuba solo...

What would Tommy's traits be?

Tommy could be a catcher, leading the pitcher and telling to all defensive players where to position themselves depending of the batter.

He will be the leader of the team. He will also be the General Manager and will try to negociate to obtain OEB Pete and Atari Creep.

TJ Ferreira could be the mascot (an alien !? )  lol

Tommy,

What do you think about this for Amico?  Looks like a fun game.

What would Tommy's traits be?

 

He shows up just a little late when at bat because he was doing an YouTube stream. Then in between pitches he races to the dugout and does a video interview which is broadcasted on the jumbo-tron. He moves so fast though it almost appears as though he's everywhere at once.

I think Tommy may well be the stadium's organ player... one that plays his own brand of ballpark music

I dont think I'll ever recover from the Mookie Betts trade...😭

Love Mookie, but lets face it, he is a second basemen that plays a great rightfield.

I just don't know if he has the power ( away from Fenway / Camden Yards another 19 games ) to have corner outfield power.

I will miss him.  Not at 400-500 Million.  But he was fun to watch.  I do consider doubles power.  Maybe he will still get 50 doubles a year for the next 5 or so years. ( this short season not considered ).

I'd much rather put that money into pitching.  Who knows maybe the Sox can re-sign him for 3 years / 100. LOL

Tommy, is this only an early mock-up or what ?

 

 

 

 

😁 lol

 

Yeah, I am a little excited ! 😉

Clearly a mock-up...  The Yankees are winning

Bench Clearing Brawls confirmed?? Wouldn't That Be Something?™

With all this focus on the games. What's coming out.When? When will we see more? Will CurlyQ pack tommy in the baseball diamond someplace? You know important stuff. I was thinking this morning about the, not much has been talked about, Soundtracks that are included on the system. 

Will it be only playable via the Amico? Can I download it and listen to it on my ipod/Zune/Android/iphone/MP3 walkman/minidisc player? If they are only playable on the Amico, no big thing, I'll have to get an external battery. Some duct tape. Figure a way to connect up some headphones. (Bluetooth?) and carry it all in a baby bjorn. So I can groove while walking.

Speaking of walking and fitness in general. Although not the biggest sellers, will there be any "Ring fit" or "exercise/Wii fit" type games on the Amico? I know Tommy has been talking about Accessories and such.  Would be neat to see something like that. Done Amico-style. Amicocise has a nice ring to it. Get some of us older people off of our ever expending rear-quarters!

Can't wait for more info !!!!

Fake!!! Too many player on screen at once.  Way more than 8 MOBs on screen at once.

However, that would be awesome if games do have these scenarios in.  Like, player/empire ejection.  Audiences throwing stuff on the field.  Streakers(with black box covering the private of course) to run around the field.  Hitting birds during a pitch.  Pitcher's arm exploding after pitching way too many times in one game.  Etc.

Once the TT code is entered and his player is active in your game, if at any point you feel a bad call was made by the computer you can  press 2-6-9 on your virtual keypad.  Tommy will rush out of the Dug Out and engage the Home Plate Umpire in a slam down 80s style Rank-out session, thus overturning the bad call and retiring the Ump. 

This will only work against Boston, Tampa Bay or the Mets...when in Yankee stadium.

Tommy,

Is any game "100%" complete? If so, and if the release date is delayed, will you further improve the "finished" games until the new release date, or will you move on? What's the plan?
