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?

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.

Hi Folks, I just wanted to apologize to the community as I was notified that our legal, sales and licensing folks have been sending out letters to a lot of websites banning the sale of Intellivision related clothing/merchandise with our branding. @mthompson was kind enough to e-mail me today letting me know that this stuff was removed (and kindly asked if there was anything I could do). I really appreciate his outreach. We are working on big merchandise and licensing deals with manufacturers and retailers. Unfortunately we're not in a position to be able to grant merchandise rights for t-shirts/hats, etc. to be sold at this time. I apologize for the inconvenience and we really do love the idea of the community helping to promote the original Intellivision brand. We're just not legally able to have people use our imaging on selling merchandise at this time. It really could screw up some really big deals that we are working on. I feel bad as we really do try to support the community as much as possible... but my hands are tied with this particular situation. Hopefully there are no hard feelings and I hope you guys have a super successful event!! If there is anything we can donate to help raise money for the event or something (if needed)... please let us know. And to be clear... it's only clothing/merchandise where this applies (because of the deals we're working on). We're happy to continue supporting events, homebrews, etc. It's just clothing/merchandise being sold right now. I hope everyone can understand and please let me know if you have any questions, comments or concerns. Thanks. And again... I'm really sorry.

Intellivision Ebay Roundup
Tommy Tallarico replied to IntellivisionDude's topic in Intellivision / Aquarius
I thought the same thing! I was NOT the person who got any of these. I was at $251 on the BASIC Data Storage sealed with 3 seconds left... then $576 came it at the very end. Wow!! I thought I was nuts. Clearly I'm just a noob!! -

Don't worry about me too much because I either always forget or the notification comes in when I'm in a meeting. -

I feel sorry for the person bidding against me for this. -
Incorrect information. "Backers" are not receiving "rewards" and they do not get a product. Investors in our Reg A or Reg D offering (regulated by the SEC) do NOT receive equity shares of the company. I guess anyone who has ever purchased a stock is also considered a "backer" of the company they own stock in? In that regards... yes... we have backers.
