    What kind of attractions would you build in a potential Intellivision Theme Park?

    Haunted house themed as Cloudy Mountain with giant snakes, dragons, etc. Gotta have their sounds audible when you get in proximity. 

    Astrosmash shooting gallery

    Deadly Discs laser tag. 

    Bump n Jump bumper cars ... don't know how you'd incorporate jump but you could keep score of bumps into walls, etc like when you destroy a vehicle in the game. 

    I think this concept has a lot of great potential ideas!

    I was watching Pete’s video on board games. (And thank you for breaking it into a separate video!)

     

    I started thinking of the board/card games I’d like to see, no matter how unlikely:

     

    Fluxx

    Dixit

    Ticket to Ride

    Guillotine

    Yahtzee (Don’t know if this is kind of rendered moot by Farkle... never played that one.)

    Memoir ’44 (Card-based wargame. The least likely to make the Amico.)

    Boss Monster

    Munchkin (Not the version that barfed onto the Switch.)

    Mahjong

    Twister (Not really, but interesting to consider how that might work.)

    Backgammon

     

    On backgammon, I wanted to toss this out to anyone who would know more than I do on the topic. I’ve tried a variety of backgammon apps on my iPad. Based on reviews, the biggest complaints of these games is that they cheat with the dice rolling... coming up with just the right roll at just the right time.

     

    Most of the developers I’ve followed have spent literally years fighting that in the review comments by swearing up and down their games don’t cheat. 

     

    Can anyone explain what “random” means when it comes to dice rolling in a computer game? Is there true randomness that can be programmed or is what we consider “random” not quite the same in the programming world?

    I'd also love to see Exploding Kittens! Great family game that would translate really well to Amico with opportunity for some awesome animations!

    I seriously doubt the announcement has anything to do with the Amico. Why?  Because we all know Tommy can’t keep a secret THAT big to himself!  😂

    I would say this in another way :  Tommy would have already gave us  a hint, because he likes us ! 😁

    Good points to both of you. That said...there are many secrets that Tommy is keeping still, so there's always a chance!

    Hey Folks,

     

    I don't know if anyone else in here is a fan of the show "Last Week Tonight with John Oliver" but in their latest episode the theme was about the disappearance of professional sport due to COVID and as they do they brought up funny alternatives. One of which was this thing called Jelle's Marble Runs where marbles race around a track while a commentator gives you the rundown. They have made up teams and the teams and fans are nothing but marbles. Watch the LWT episode if you get a chance its pretty good but what you should really do here is check this thing out...

     

     

    I just watched this for over and hour with my wife...we laughed our asses off, and are ordering t-shirts right after this. Now a question for @Tommy Tallarico...Tommy if there is a sport for Intellivision to support this is it! LOL but seriously as well...they do take sponsorships, and have now had major exposure from an HBO show...and hey they are marbles...how much can it be?!? The YouTube channel itself looks to have put on 200K subs since last Sunday's episode aired. Next thing...watch a couple of these eps and tell me if this doesn't need to be an Intellivision game. Give it a click folks its about 8 min long and we're glad we came across it :) 

     

    Cheers :) 

    Oh man this is one of the BEST things I've seen in a very long time! Thanks for sharing!!! 😆

    Tommy,

     

    Will certain retail versions of the Amico console come with a free physical game or free digital download code?  For example, once EWJ comes out, is there going to be a physical copy/digital download code included?

     

    Wouldn't that be something?  

    That would be cool! Like a bonus pack-in. Or maybe marketed as an "EWJ Bundle" kind of thing.

    They mentioned using the microphone but not specifically that game. Could be but couldn't it be a different game seeing there are 50 in production and Tommy did say only a couple of thise 50 use the controller the same way? 

    I've not heard the game specifically named as the 6th pack-in, it's just my guess based on this and one other video where the 6th was discussed. Can't remember which interview that was though as there've been quite a few!

    Awesome!  Thanks!  Welcome to the AA forums and the Q&A thread!  Hope you'll stick around.

     

    Thanks for the fantastic video!  Really appreciate it.  Please let me know if you have any questions!

     

     

    Thanks for the welcome Tommy. I've been lurking for a long time here and on YouTube. Decided it was time to start engaging. I'll definitely hit you up with some questions in the near future!

    So @Tommy Tallarico I have a question about the gamestop pre orders .does all versions on console come with.the $25 giftcard or just the.galthy.purple ?  I know you said gamestop was still.updating so just wanted to.know. I havnt.ore ordered yet waiting tonstzry back at work and then I'll be able to.  Just deciding if I should order at fig or just order at my.lical.gamestop when they re open.as that way I can.pick up and not have to deal with the hassle of taking off workin.hopes its delivered on.time.   :) but.if its not ill.jp

    On.ober to.gig.instead .....well.unless the red console was announced by a retailer.

     

    Also .will all exclusive consoles be 299 or is it just gamestop's pricingm.

    .  As I thought you were  aiming for 279 for limited edition consoles??   Not a deal.braker at all  just curious.

    FWIW only the Galaxy Purple listing mentions the $25 card.

    In this interview the last pack-in was revealed to be the game that's using the microphone.

    This was my immediate connection on hearing that interview as well. It's certainly not what I was hoping for the final pack-in game (Had fingers crossed for Cloudy Mountain myself)-- but this does look like good family fun and will show off some parts of the system and controller that the other pack-ins won't.
