    hey, I am a project manager....  but yeah i get it ;)  pretty sure thats how my guys see me.

    I deal with project managers all the time in telecom provisioning. I don't answer their calls. I make them Jabber me instead. 😄😈

    PMs love to talk your ear off. Repeating themselves over and over about how much time constraints we're under, while I could've had 4 circuits ready to go if they didn't talk so much.

    The only people who may be interested in buying it are people over 50 who had an Intellivision growing up.

    Most think history started when they were born. Nothing of significance ever happened before then. 

     

    In the late 90s I was at a CD store and saw a couple of teen kids pick up a Styx CD. One of them said "Whose Stixe?" As in St-eye-x. I knew I was old in my mid 30s then.

    Question for Tommy. And excuse me if this has already been answered, I can’t keep up with these hundreds of pages in this thread. 
     

    Amico Strategy and RTS games.  
     

    Games similar to:

    Command and Conquer and Sim City. 
     

    Any in the works?

    I second that! A Tower Defense game would be awesome, and I mentioned Theme Park World a few pages back is prime for an update.

    Why is it necessary to ask?  This is Tommy's Amico Q&A thread, after all; there's nothing wrong with trying to keep it on track.  Remember, the more often it wanders off-topic, the more work it creates for Tommy when he has time to catch up with it.

    Perhaps it wasn't, but I get triggered by an obvious attempt at peacocking and then gaslit by a second post that it was "just a joke", and then bullied some more by being issued an instruction to "lighten up".

    I have noticed it is the haters and trolls who are the first to cry foul for “fairness” whenever anything they see as even slightly unfair is said about them. However they can lie, insinuate, use fake accounts and issue personal attacks with no qualms what so ever.

    It's a front. Vast majority of "free speech crusaders" or "Anti-SJW" cares very little about freedom of speech. Just the freedom of their speech.

    I know, people must just keep pointing out reality over and over - it must be very tiresome to hear. I am glad you found a self justification for it in Orwell.
     

    Your point is taken - let people say whatever they want and don’t worry about confusion or injury to others because their rights to open their mouths is above all other concerns.

     

     I will defiantly give that policy all the consideration it deserves. Consider this matter dropped.

    It's always interesting when the free speech wailers like Rave Dubin & Shen Bapiro deny the freedom of speech of those that disagree with them. "I have a right of my speech to go unchallenged... and the new Sheera cartoon needs a bigger rack, you SJWs!"

    with all due respect, both the description and the video itself were clearly satirical, even if they were mean-spirited; so i think those are just excuses that you're coming up with in order to justify your actions, no different than those who like to abuse the copyright system in order to get back at people who disagree with them. either way, it was a pansy move on your part. And, yes... i get extremely triggered when it comes to censorship, especially during this present time in which the bill of rights and all our freedoms are being eviscerated under the pretense of a global health crises.

    This isn't censorship. Learn the term. The First Amendment offers no rights to a YouTube channel.

     

    If he get's arrested, thrown in jail and prosecuted for this video, then you'd have an argument.

    Yo Folks,

     

    I've been absolute slammed like crazy the past few days and have fallen behind in here... will probably be able to catch up over the weekend.

     

    In regards to the purple... it's just a render and is going to be shinier then it shows... and the silver bands look a lot better as well.  Very difficult to do a proper render of this and we weren't ready for photographs just yet.

     

    Also... the price on the Gamestop page doesn't list the extras.  Page is still being made.  More info coming tomorrow.

     

     

    Silver? Needs chrome!

    I just saw another video saying the Amico will fail, and it's like the Ouya... Why do I hear people bringing up the Coleco Chameleon and Ouya all the time when talking about the Amico?

    The simple answer is, it was the golden age of YouTube gaming channel monetization. Many gaming channels made big bucks from YT by bashing Ouya & Chameleon, where viewership spiked & adverts paid better. They're trying to put that lightening back in the bottle & Atari VCS bashing just doesn't get the eyeballs Amico does.

    the guy has a right to his opinion. And he has the right to speak that opinion - and even use satire to express that opinion...  if you don't like what he has to say, or his obviously satirical approach to communicate his thoughts on the matter, ...

    If that video is satire, then Apocalypse Now is comedy film.🙄

    I'm with you. Something about it is just too flat. The original render was super shiny and this new render looks like a sticker or skin put on the console. I was particularly excited about the chrome/gloss on the controllers and how the shiny plastic melded with the shiny purple. 

     

    I'm probably being overly-negative but I guess I had it in my mind a certain way. Hoping Tommy will assuage our fears or perhaps show an exclusive look at a real, in person prototype version. 

    Yeah. Me too. It's the matte finish that I don't care for.
