    Muhahahahahahhaha!!

     

    All will be revealed.


    :D

     

    Lets just say it's the game that tests THE BEST out of all our games!  :)

     

     

     

     

    I’m soooo curious ! Maybe ideal for a pack in ? The pack in games could potentially make or break the system. (Wii sports)  I’m sure you will include the top games so people can have fun and promote the system right out of the box.

    PONG can't be a pack-in because of the license. 
     

    I didn't even show the EASY Pong mode!  It's simply a "collecting" game with a time limit where you need to collect as many things as possible to get the highest score.  Made it look like something out of Willy Wonka too!  Casuals will LOVE it and hardcores will love the challenge.

    I love it !! One of the simplest games ever made but so much fun to have a remake !!! Bring on those local high scores !!!!!

    Thanks!!!  Haters continue to complain that these are a mobile games... yet each game we do is very stylized and proves that you don't need a super human graphics chip in order to entertain people.

    :)

     

    I’m so tired of the mobile game comparison. People just don’t get it, but hopefully they will when they play theses games. There are so many details that differentiate Amico games from mobile games. I lost my temper and commented on a YouTube video when I heard this comparison one to many times !!! Lol 

     

    Anyway keep up The good work and never let the passion die. This is the secret ingredient that can not be copied !!! I feel so involved in this project and am super thankful as a 53 year old that grew up Owning almost every system out there. I never thought I would ever be this excited again for a new system !! I feel Like a kid again ! 
     

    Thank you Tommy 😀

    You'll have 3 choices (and 2 different price points).

     

    Vintage Woodgrain ($279)

    Graphite Black ($249)

    Glacier White ($249)

     

    All will come with great value bonuses that are different from the Founders Edition (not as good... but still pretty cool).  I have also decided to do something a little special for all of our Founders Edition folks as well!

     

     

    Maybe a trip to the chocolate factory? 
     

    😂

    No... not those on launch.  PONG & Missile Command are definitely on launch... potentially Breakout as well.

    Atari Classics REIMAGINED and REMADE EXCLUSIVELY for the Intellivision Amico™: Pong™, Asteroids™, Centipede™, Tempest™, Adventure™, Missile Command™, Yar's Revenge™, Breakout™, Lunar Lander™, Night Driver™, Sky Diver™, Warlords™

    Awesome !! Can’t wait for Pong and Missile Command ! Classics !!!!

    Yeah... we're thinking about 6... maybe even 7!!  If we are forced to have the retail price be higher because components are getting more expensive by the day (because of Corona) then I'll make up for it with more pack-in stuff!   :)

     

    Can you believe that no other game console has come with 2 separate controllers as the base unit in 30 years!!  The Super Nintendo was the last one I believe!!  (not including special bundles or the Switch controller which is just one controller that you can split into two.

    Some folks try to convince me to keep the price at $199 and only have one controller.  Heck no!  Won't do it.  Not going to force people to pay money just for a 2nd controller.  Goes against everything we're about.  The phone app controls are fine for about half the games... but you really want the REAL controller if you can.

     

     

    7 is my lucky 🍀 number ! Another bonus for FE backers and I have 2 !

    Console color name change!
     

    Check it out... here's an Atari Age exclusive...

     

    We are changing the color names of the black and white consoles because we decided that we're going to do them in MATTE finishes (the main bodies) what satin highlights.  They look SO COOL!!!

     

    So Obsidian Black and Glacier White didn't work anymore (because those things are very shiny/glossy, etc.).

     

    I wanted to keep it nature based for the black & white versions so the new names are...

     

    Graphite Black (love that one!)

    and

    Ivory White

     

    It will be in our press release on Tuesday... but thought I'd sprinkle a little info in here for everyone.  :)

     

     

    I will take one of each 😀

    I have 12 of the very best Atari games... Adventure & Warlords are included in that bunch.   :)

     

     

    Yes !!! I always wanted to see a proper remake of adventure and warlords is an awesome multiplayer game !!!!  Super excited ! Will either of those be a launch title ? 
     

    Is their any chance of knowing the other 10 Atari games you have the license for ? I know you might not be able to say but I would LOVE to know all 10 .....or maybe a few more since you like to tease ! Lol 😂

    It's an absolutely FABULOUS story that I can't say publicly because of our contracts with Atari.  Some day in the long future it will come out and you'll all be LOL'ing.

     

    :)

     

     

    Do you have have all of the Atari licenses ? Love to see reimagined versions of adventure and warlords among others. It was puzzling that Atari has announced no plans to update their own games but to include the “Atari vault” with their system. Who needs that yet again ? I guess it takes Intellivision to bring us updated Atari games !!! Glad you guys got the licenses to do this !
