    Who?  Mike Dietz?  Nah.

     

    :)

     

     

    In germany there is a tractor company called dietz. However if Mike opened a soft drink buisness he could sell "diet dietz".  Or a beer company whete he could offer dietz wiser or dietz light. But he could always settle down as a peanut farmer. His brand would be known throughout the world as mikes peanuts...what you think i would stoop so low as to say....DIETZ NUTZ ! Lol hahahaha.....I'll sit down now and be quiet. (Heads to corner to put his nose in it.)

    I really want the woodgrain edition amico. It will tastefully compliment my home. I wonder why no one does wood grain anymore?

     

     By the way marvel has the "true believers" i think amico needs something simular l nominate "Amico Amigos" thats roughly translated into

    "family and friends" i dont know how about some suggestions? 

    Tommy you can be the judge and pick the best.

    Hey good day Tommy and my fellow "Amico amigos".

    Question for the main man, Tommy Talarico.

    Is activision and intellivision on good terms?

    Reason why I ask this question because, i would Love a remaster of Beamrider, River raid 1 and 2, and keystone cops.

    So is there any chance of this happening?

    Also are you going to get anymore licsenses from Sega? Reason why?

    ZAXXON BABY!! YEAH!...(ahem) I mean, I would like you to politely ask Sega for Zaxxon for the amico. They arent doing anything with Alex Kidd either. Go for broke, ask for both. Lol

     

    We also need Dig dug, 1982 Smurf game, and Pole position.

    Thank you for your time and be safe.

    Why are these two people above even relevant? They act like Dbags.

    Pat and Ian used to be cool.

    They were at one point affiliated with a company called Retroware, which made a documentary series about video games.

     

    This doc had people like pat and ian, the former head of intellivision kieth robinson , Tommy talarico, roo, pixel dan, the guy from LGR, and several more. It was the definative series on video games. 

     

     Pat also had a hand in exposing the fraud of the coleco vision chameleon.

    Pat got a ton of views from that. That is where pat got "youtube famous" from.

     

    Pat also claims he is the definitive source of nes and snes history. Which he isnt. If anybody could lay claim to the title, that would be John Hancock.

    He has every thing and is trying to open a museum of videogames.

     

    Pat i think is trying to recreate the coleco incident so he can more views and be relevent again. I dont think its about money i think its strictly about the adulation and fans he wants.

     

    Right now i think pat is depressed and bitter and lonely.  Ian isnt helping, he is just feeding the negative side of his ego.

     

    Pat is sad.You can see it all over his face. i think pat needs help. Maybe he will get help and be happy again, but right now he is nothing more than toxic shock press.

     

    I really hope he gets help, finds someone who positively affects his life, and maybe sees Ian for what he really is. 

     

    Until then the best thing you can do is ignore them, pretend he doesnt exist, because if no one is stroking his ego he will have to take a long look in the mirror and realize what he has become.

    Thank you and be safe.

    Three games i want to appear on the amico.

     

    1.) Beamrider- This is a great 2600 activision title it oozes 80's nostalga. More importantly its a great shooter in the style of vector and neon.

    All it needs is a synthwave or just the Heavy Metal movie soundtrack added to the game and it would be perfect.

     

    2.) Zaxxon- this 1982 shoot em up despertly needs a remake. Can you imagine the 3d isometric graphics remade with modern equipment?!? Can you say "Awesome"?  

    Seriously though, zaxxon is a wonderful underrated game. Plus Sega isnt using it, Hell if you ask for it Tommy they make it a twofer and throw in Alex kidd for free.

     

    3.)DigDug- what can be said about this classic? That's like trying to describe Casablanca in a new way. Dig dug is freaking classic, like Pac man with a tactical weapon, dig dug is awesome and needs to be on the amico.

     

    Now i know i said three but these games need a honorable mention.

    Smurfs- this platformer was very fun and competitive game just add some more levels and bam instant fun.

     

    Pole position- i really miss this racing game. Fun game.

     

    River raid 1 or 2- these activision games were a blast and really need a reboot.

     

    Thanks for reading my post. Be safe.

    Hey Tommy Tallairico,

    1st. Thank you for the nice response to my comment on atari creep's video. It meant alot to me.

     

    Ceo's of companies don't take the time to talk to buyers of their products. When was the last time Bill Gates stopped by on a youtube  to respond about the latest gears vid?...uhh never.

     

    That alone Mr.Tallairico you have my loyality to my last day. I grew up in a "one brand" family. My dad drove a dodge and that was the only car he would own. My dad also was the only guy who stuck with Philco tv and radios till they went out of business. I suppose im that way to.

     

    It used to be companies begged for that kind of customer loyalty but, not so much these days. I don't know why and it boggles my mind!  Maybe im out of touch, or old fashioned, but i dont think so.

    Tommy you and intellivision have my respect and my future purchases.

     

    Why? Because i see that you are a hard working person and you and your team really care. 

     

    Now that being said, i have a couple of questions and if you could answer them i would be honored. I'll try not to sound like a idiot. (No promises!)

     

    1st question: lets say you have a game that was on the 2600, like "G.I.Joe cobra strike" made in 1983 and you wanted to remake and release on the amico, but couldn't get the actual liscence rights for g.i.joe.

    so you decide to chang the name and some characters would there be any legal trouble for you over it? Or is there a type of "public domain" for video games?

     

    2nd.question. are you going to have independent product testors for your system. The reason i ask this is because the "big 3" xbox,sony, and nintendo have in house testers.

    Now you have stated that you want intellivision to be outside the box and look at things from a different perspective. So would independent testers be on that list of "outside the box" thinking?

     

    3rd.and final question, and the most important answer you give today. With you being a car guy, any chance of seeing a pole position, victory run or out run style game on the amico?  

     

    I have a idea on a game that would be cool for car people. You could create a 2.5 graphics driving racing R.P.G !

     

    The main character of said game would be like Jay leno (or similar type of person) who loves cars and is trying to 

    collect and fill his shop with all of his dream cars. While on your journey to get them all, you also have to repair and restore the cars, while making sure your garage is big enough.

    You can the character race to earn money, also take on odd jobs like be a stuntman in movies to acomplish his goals! Hope thos sounds fun to you to.

     

    Sorry for the long post but stay safe everyone.

    Hello fellow travellers, im ramey butler aka headtraumabob on psn. Question for Tommy, the boss man of intellivision.

    Are you gonna need product testers? 

    I know most companies usually do, however I realize that intellivision isn't like the other "guys" so what are you stances on pre market testing?

    By the way thank you for the kind remark on my comment on atari creeps youtube video concerning the latest game demos.

    I'll shut up now.
