  1. So much of these retail suggestions would turn this new machine into nothing more than a "As seen on TV" aisle throwaway, right next to the flow bee and slap chop. This isn't a rubber octopus that crawls down walls. Do you want a family style game machine or a salad shooter?
  2. Nice video, but I was distracted through most of it. Keep your hands on the wheel! I'm begging you.😳
  3. If you are making videos in your car and not talking about what the French call a Quarter Pounder, then you're doing it wrong.
  4. I'm also in that 5%. I have a Target just around the corner from me, so it's just easy to pop in there. WM's major crowded anyway. McDonald's? Well... I'm part of that 89%. Those french fries! 😋
  5. They also said that Warner Bros. made Godzilla too fat.😂 Also love their honest use of English...
  6. I remember QVC selling Genesis Shaq Fu one time & I guess it was a hit with them. Even if that piece of EA crap can sell on QVC, then the idio... I mean smart consumers who watch it will buy a good system too. 😉
  7. Not to take away from anybody's logic, business sense or arguments here, but... You all know Shark Tank is fake for maximum dramatic impact, right?
  8. Split Screen option! As long as the aliens I destroy gets respawned on my opponent's playfield. 😈
  9. No! I was MAD when Arnie won Governator! No Arnie movies for 8 years. After he was done, we got old fart Arnie movies.
  10. Sounds a lot like what Disneyland did with the new Smuggler's Run ride. Each rider has a job in the Millenium Falcon. Pilot, Gunner, grabbing cargo, etc. There's a pass/fail at the end of the ride.
  11. How do I stop misquotes like this? Anyhow... Galaga 88 could use a port to a new console, since Turbografx and it's games are so hard to find.
  12. I said I give up! It's clear I'm not getting anywhere, and I really don't need the condescension & pop psychology, so you can "Finish Him!" by belaboring your point.
  13. I thought this was an Amico thread. Is there some rule where the Switch must be bowed before in order to talk about something else?
  14. So... put Leslie Nielsen's face on him? Of course not about sexual assault in the game, but I'm curious what were you doing when you should've been paying attention to those Dracula movies you were supposed to be watching?
  15. Tommy, you announced a good selection of Irem games for the Amico. Do you plan on licensing any more from them? They are my favorite game designers.
  16. All of those were games designed by Irem. So it looks like a one stop shop for those. Excellent choice though. Irem made some of the best games.
  17. You announced plans to re-design Dracula. I don't envy the tightrope your designers will have to walk to keep him an icon and please the ESRB at the same time, without turning him into a muppet that counts things on Sesame Street. Dracula's only motivation is his insatiable thirst for blood. He gets this through seduction, mind control and sexual assault. He is the personification of our darkest fears of losing our autonomy and ownership of our bodies, minds and souls. It's why he's up there with Robin Hood, Merlin, Perseus and Long John Silver as a literary and cinematic icon. Even the original 1983 game has him as the player's avatar assaulting people on the street. I don't know how Dracula's character can be faithfully depicted and still remain within the rules of E10+. It seems to me that the ESRB ratings are arbitrary and capricious. Shooting somebody is OK, as long as there's no blood. Punching somebody with no blood is bad, because reasons. Biting somebody, where blood is necessary to remain true to a literary icon? Maybe they'll bend the rules.
  18. *sigh*. Okay. I give up. Let's just enjoy Armor Battle... depicting a war where over 60,000 deaths occurred defeating Nazism with the tank being the biggest death trap of all war machines. Or Night Stalker and it's neighborhood gun violence. What did those demons ever do to you? Or the ultra-sanitary way to make hamburgers... by walking on them. No e-coli there! Lock N Chase will teach our children how to rob a bank vault while trying to avoid the cops. First class family fun! Or racing cars in city streets & crashes never result in dismemberment & decapitation from flying through the windshield at 70mph. Ah SharkShark! The great circle of life. Or is it an allegory to eat or be eaten world of corporate America where you only get ahead by destroying everybody else in your never ending ambition to be the biggest fish? Do I need to even describe Dracula? I get it though. Pocket Fighter is just way too much and disturbing for a family game system.🙄
