Zendocon Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 Canadian game ideas ... I actually had brainstormed a few ideas about three years ago. One of them had you manipulating pipes and valves to turn off Niagara Falls. Another one involved collecting boxes of Kraft Macaroni. I should try to dig up my notes now. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RetroAl Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 Logrolling? Something to do with Poutine? Speed Racing to Tim's? and don't forget curling eh! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+JasonlikesINTV Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 Curling should be a launch/pack-in for Amico Canada. I would also buy the Intellivision homebrew. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Log rolling was the bonus stage in the arcade game Timber, so somebody could start by porting that. There has to be a game involving doughnuts as well, so maybe a port of A.P.B. would be the next best thing to a speed race to Tim Horton's.

Sinjinhawke Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 Mine (as a Toronto boy) would be 1) Auto Parking - Driving to an event and trying to find parking within reasonable distance. 2) Shuttle Bus - Trying to take a subway to a destination with the least amount of disembarkations due train turning around or being suspended and having to take a shuttle bus. 3) Squeegee Kid - Like Dracula. You need to catch a car and successfully secure change after washing their windows. Annoyances are cops, TTC streetcars and keeping your squeegee wet using street puddles. You have until rush hour is over to get the most change. 4) Vape Escape - A party board game based on Toronto streets. Try to avoid landing on the squares occupied by vape and pot shops. 5) Yonge Street Tales - like Antarctic Tales, you progress along Yonge Street trying to avoid the random encounters with various people (the religious pamphlet guys, the urine smelling swearing guy, the human statue guy and the guy playing drums on a plastic bucket. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rietveld Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 Did Joe say if we will have this in time for a Christmas present to ourselves? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn’t count on that, but there might be a xmas miracle. By the time Joe ships some to me then I ship to people it’s not likely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

epoch19 Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 I would definitely be interested in picking up a cart. Please let me know if you are still distributing. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Steve Jones Posted February 17, 2021 Author Share Posted February 17, 2021 Hey Canadians, any of you that missed out before, I just got a final shipment from Joe of 12 more LTO-Flashes, message me to buy. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+LS650 Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 For any Canadians sitting on the fence and unsure if they should order one: I bought one from Steve last month and it arrived two weeks after I ordered. I use it a lot (in fact I'll be playing some Intellivision tonight) and I highly recommend getting one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Steve I also hand delivered one to another guy near you after Canada Post returned it to me when they couldn't figure out which door was his, even though the instructions said "Leave on doorstep". There were 2 doors, literally right beside each other, but I guess that was too much thinking. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
