Steven Pendleton #11427 Posted March 31, 2020 1 minute ago, vongruetz said: His reasons seem to be: The woodgrain doesn't do it for him. Money is tight right now. He'd only play it for doing video content. All understandable. That last point though is where I think a lot of the differences are between those who love it and those who don't. The entire point of Amico is to play it with other people. I think that a lot of the gamers on YouTube are so used to just playing single-player games that the idea of a system revolving around local multiplayer doesn't appeal to them at all. He said he'd pull it out when something new drops to highlight it for a video. The point is to pull it out when you have friends over and want to play something together. That's one thing that I like about him; he'll just outright say if something doesn't appeal to him and leave it at that. No freaking out, no calling it shit, etc., which is why his is one of I think only 3 or 4 video game shows on Youtube that I actually watch 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've watched a bunch of videos (games look awesome and fun) and have seen the whole "family living room gaming" experience being touted. I'm all for that and think its great, but I live alone and would like to know if I also can play the vs games or any games in general with a multiplayer mode on the internet. I've seen in some trailers "internet FEATURES" but haven't seen any confirmation the games can be played online. (features could just mean leaderboards & DLC for all I know) The pre-ordering starts today and my pre-order is pending this information so can someone that knows this information please advise? Thanks No online multiplayer at launch . Maybe later as people start asking for it Prob won't reveal anything til 2021 1. Its budget reason 2. They want to establish the focus is on local multiplayer with upnto 8 real friends. 3. When they do multiplayer it will be more of a friends list style and not just open to random players. 4. I have asked about if maybe some direct connect style way.... tommy seems open to if any users find a work around ...so hopefully the gaming community get on that. 5. System will gave online leader boards for local , regionally and global . And will be broken down to all time , year month week day sort of way. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shouldn't it be called T-Bone? After getting cornholed I dont think.player looking to be boned in any way on launch. 6 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

+GrudgeQ #11435 Posted March 31, 2020 7 hours ago, RxScram said: So, true story... I was testing all of the haptics effects available with the haptics controller. Most of them are "cool!... yeah, interesting... nice!" type of effects. But then I get to effect number 118, and it's like a super powerful, very long effect... about 10 seconds, full on shaking your hand because the haptics are buzzing so hard. In my write-up on the various effects, I recommended against using that particular effect. Wrong industry. Good to know that if this whole "family friendly console" thing doesn't work out, Tommy has a clear path to pivot into 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You mentioned we could just listen and then said a negative about your own looks. I'm the opposite. I dont like to watch your videos too closely because I get hypnotized by your eyes. They are piercing and bright. I worry you might just see into my soul or something. Keep up the great work. And no more disparaging your looks. 🙂 LOL this made me laugh, my wife thinks I am getting to big for britches! Then show her some big channels compared to mine and she smiles and pats me on the back and says "good job, you do have nice eyes!" 2 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well, in my case, I just started working from home on Saturday and it's HORRIBLE because I keep being distracted by video games and Intellivision announcements! I give you my permission to keep making announcements, though! 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IntelliMission #11440 Posted March 31, 2020 (edited) Tommy, your patience answering each and every concern of new AtariAge users that decide to create an account here simply to say that they are disappointed with the Amico graphics is admirable. It looks like yesterday a new one appeared on the independent topic... Let's see how many days pass before another one joins the party. 🤓 Edited March 31, 2020 by IntelliMission 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LePionnier #11441 Posted March 31, 2020 Tommy. Will it be possible to let us know a couple hours before the end of the pre-orders ? Because I have friends to talk with before ( I want to know if they have the money and which color they wants ). And before ordering mine, I will probably wait for some answers of my friends to pre-order with the same adress and save money on Shipping. (Do you have an idea of the shipping price for Delivery in Canada Montreal ? ) I have another friend ( My boss who told me that I have no job ! lol ) and I want to give him an idea of a possible shipping price. That could decide if he will take a chance and wait on October 10th to have one. Thank you. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
