In my opinion everything revolves around the controller because it's how you interact with the system. It's how you play the games. Show one of the non-reimagined games, like Cornhole, and how the controller really makes it easier and fun to play. 9 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We're saving that for a very special partner. All these are good. The question that occurs to me when thinking about this is “who is going to be viewing this at this time?” If it is still going to be mostly gaming community, then I would save #2 and #5 until closer to launch when more widespread marketing will reach the casual target. If you believe word of mouth on #2 and #5 will spread to the casual market in good amounts from this, then I would not worry about holding back. I just think if the gaming community is pretty much the sole audience at this time, #1 and #3 are more on point right now. I agree with you Oldfool ! It's been almost 2 years since I am waiting for Amico, so I would tend to wish to see new things ! So Number 1 is on the top of the list. If you make an interview (with of course some gameplay, or pictures ) I would like to have Mike Mika. I think he is working on a lot of Big Projects, and maybe some of them can't be revealed, but it's a guy I like a lot ! I don't know if you have some footage (probably before covid) of you and some of your team talking about idea to incorporate in a game (Kind of Brainstorming). It could be cool to see things like this. (As an example, you said that you tried to have pong with four players ( One player in the top and bottom of the screen ). Seeing everything you are trying to do to get the best of everygame. (Another example, when you were discussing about having or not having bosses on a game like Astrosmash, etc. ) Thank you Tommy for everything, and thank you Atari Age to let us discuss with the CEO for Intellivision Entertainement ! It's really appreciate ! 7 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you folks went with 4, I think it would be very interesting to have an interview with Cara Acker, Scott Tsumura, or Jason Enos. Here's something for number 6: what if you released a video, offering some details on how one (or more) of your retail partners plan to sell Amico? That might be a good place to host an interview with someone from one of those retailers: maybe Walmart or Best Buy? 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Intellivision Master #28220 Posted February 28 Tommy, There's a game called the Great Giana Sisters. The game has a neat story and also has some cool power ups and items. This game was on many platforms. It had 5 sequels. The first game looks similar to Super Mario Bros. But it has a different story, characters, etc. Would you consider having the original game on Amico? It would be great to see this get re-imagined. 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LePionnier #28221 Posted March 1 (edited) If # 2 wins, I would be really curious to see how Night Stalker will play with the controller, moving while aiming, etc. Edit: (Super Smash T.V. was one of my favorite games on the SNES, and I have always hoped to see that game with two analog sticks. So Night Stalker in a lot of ways looks like a Smash T.V. games, but I really dont know how it will be played with an Amico controller !) Thank you !
