Hi Folks, Although Amico has it's own section on Atari Age now, I did want to post this over here as it is Intellivision related and for a good cause. After successfully helping to raise thousands of dollars for CHOC through Intellivision (which I know some of the folks in here helped out with!), we were approached to donate something cool as an auction item to help raise more money for the CHOC Foundation (Children's Hospital). I thought this would be pretty cool. It just went live! It's a one-of-a-kind Amico Dev Kit shell signed by some of the Intellivision team members that helped to create it! Will be interesting to see how much it will end up raising for charity. Someone is going to get a pretty cool one-of-a-kind collectors item. Anyone want to make a guess on how much it will end up going for?? The auction ends on June 12th. https://e.givesmart.com/events/lzg/i/_Auction/e2IN/

What was your first Intellivision game?
Tommy Tallarico replied to Rev's topic in Intellivision / Aquarius
Wasn't everyone's first game Poker & Blackjack? Ours was MLB Baseball! Followed by SNAFU & SKIING I believe. -

No. Nothing yet. Keep hoping the whole damn thing will be over so kept putting it off. As a side note to everyone... it's the t-shirt/hat, apparel stuff that our sales & legal team are dealing with. Stuff like Homebrews, original add-on's, etc, are totally fine. Just don't want folks to worry. It's because we're working on a big apparel deal right now.

I think we could probably sell those on our website and just pass all the profits through to the Expo. Win win for everyone! I wouldn't want any money to do it... pass it all on.

Thank you for understanding. Can you explain a little bit more about "being shut down". Do you mean as an original fan who can no longer purchase? If so, we can easily recreate certain styles and make them available via our website. Or do you mean creating and making profits (even if it is for a non-profit cause). I'd like to understand the disappointment factor a bit more. Appreciate the conversation and thoughts!

To be clear and fair, no one was singled out. Our lawyers and sales people don't know who anyone in the community is... and unfortunately... it wouldn't matter anyway. In order to protect copyright and trademarks it must be enforced. I personally didn't even know it was happening, but it was explained to me why it needs to happen. In order to do bigger deals with bigger manufacturers and retailers (so that many more people can enjoy original Intellivision things), it's a necessary evil. It's not about the money being made off these products (which I'm sure is only in the hundreds of dollars) it's the protection of the trademarks and the insistence from big distributors and retailers to ensure exclusive branding.
