@@pferreira1983 you really don't understand my politics if you think I begrudge him that. If you give someone money, I think they should be able to spend it on whatever you want. Ian spent the remainder on a trip? Awesome. I also think means testing is bad, I think benefits should be hugely expanded and I think limits on SNAP should be abolished. I'm one of the few people who has defended you as not being an unpleasant person, just being somewhat misunderstood and defensive - but you don't made that easy pferreira when you say needlessly incendiary things.
@@pferreira1983 I'm aware of that and I never said you didn't. For the record I've stated to these people directly that I didn't think singling you out was fair, and putting unrelated parts of your life on display for people to make fun of was just bullying and I've made that clear to people who did that several times. I don't agree with singling you out. But repeating the most incendiary of the claims against Ian isn't going to exactly endear you to people. And I'm sure you don't care. I'm just saying when I'm telling people making horrible meme videos about the "pferreira remover" isn't OK, it's difficult to have much comeback to "he said this horrid thing yesterday, I don't care". But like I said I have no issues with you dude. Keep doing what you're doing. I'm just saying, you don't have to mount a constant defensive for these people. They'll just use it as ammunition to keep going. I'm not saying that you should stop or that I don't understand why you'd have that attitude.
@@pferreira1983 I don't disagree. I'm definitely not saying you need to change anything about your comments or such for my benefit. I completely get the attitude of why should you play nice when no one else has even attempted to and I honestly can't fault you for feeling that way. Like I said, I've made it clear to people I thought it was needlessly cruel and I have no issues with you personally. I do struggle to see your viewpoint on several things, but that doesn't give anyone a license for abuse and abhorrent cruelty. You've never treated me badly, you've argued but I've never come away from an interaction with you thinking you were unfair. You're alright as far as I'm concerned. You're better than the people digging up steam pages to make fun of people and make vile accusations. That's for sure.
Even better its like Dave Meltzer knows wrestling by WATCHING the content than Jim Cornette who actually used to worked in wrestling. Cornette knows more wrestling because he used to do it full time than Meltzer who just stare at a TV screen.
DJC really going hard over this playskool, fisher price, leap-frog knockoff of a console and its games that are subpar at best in the year 2023. LMFAO imagine a grown ass man defending a game made for preschoolers.
I disagree with Jeff on one thing. They're not even XBLA worthy. They belong one tier lower, Xbox Live Indie Games, for no more than 240 points, where the storefront was more hidden, and the games had no QC from official staff. I found games there with stolen assets, too.
If only the Amico got released, there would be nothing for Israel and Palestine to fight over. Besides who is gonna be the purple fish in Shark! Shark! :p
All I want to hear from DJC and Mullis is a date. The exact day that they will give up on Amico if it doesn't come out. All this "it'll come out when it comes out" stuff is a clown show.
@@janong9873 they'll consider anything a victory. Remember these are the people who said they'd be happy if only the founders end up getting theirs. This is their logic, there'll be no future support for it if it doesn't get a retail release, but they'll have a rare item for their shelves. What a cringe fanbase.
Mike Mullis said in February 2022 "if anything delays this year it's game over". Yet he's still going along with the con nearly two years later. He has no integrity at all.
I guess the flub with that little live demo of Amico Home was so devastating to the narrative he was trying to craft, that DJC hasn't posted an Amico Forever stream in over a month.
DJC's brain would melt if he saw Cuphead, apparently. If I was some rich man with more money than sense, I'd ask BBG games for a blank cheque to buy their S tier IPs. No, not Super, Stupendous or other Superlatives. I mean the other S; the one commonly known as Kusoge. Shark Shark is one third of Jaws on NES, and I want everyone to think of that. One third of a game that is reviled; and it manages to have less content.
That is wholly correct … Not everyone has an Amico … I mean not one single person … not even Tallarico himself owns an Amico . It’s a figment of imagination .. Those exclusive, now not exclusive, exclusive Titles look smoking !
The early XBLA game he is talking about is feeding frenzy. It has the exact same gameplay as Shark!Shark! but has 40 levels instead of 12 and only costs 5 dollars.
Djc says: "Not everyone has an Amico". He should've said: "No one has an Amico, because it doesn't exist.". A couple of coubled up prototypes in the wild don't count.
Remember, these aren't just unfinished, overpriced games that lack a pause feature or have incorrect button mapping. Astrosmash and Shark! Shark! were supposed to be the centerpiece of a $350+ console that was supposed to sell to billions and take over the world and save your family (according to "veritable industry icon" Tommy Tallarico and his personality cult). They were Intellivision's Mario and Sonic, or pack-ins equivalent to Wii Sports. Welp, the games are now out there in the wild, on multiple platforms, minus the cost of a woodgrain or purple or GTO Red footbath, so they're more available now than they've ever been, and the result? Crickets. I really do hope that when the shills see these games sell in the dozens and have a concurrent player count in the single digits, not enough to get even a decent online multiplayer stream going, that they come to the epiphany that the Amico and its retrobait games were always stupid ideas that evolved into a $17 million+ grift. I'd like to believe that, but then there are the "puzzling" comments below. And before you compare anything DJC says to anything Jeff Gerstmann says, remember that DJC thanked Stephen Berendsen of BBG for providing the code for Astrosmash and Shark Shark, so he got the games for free. Not even the biggest shills will pay for this BS, and neither should you. Enjoy the "human experience" of saving a few bucks or spending it elsewhere.
Yeah, these are solid points and they do highlight the fact that the Amico Cult will accept ANYTHING as some type of victory. The first red flag they should've noticed was when Tommy told them that the games all had to meet a certain level of perfection, like a quality seal to even be on their platform. Then, announces ported over cell phone games and free internet flash games. This is why they celebrate medicore "exclusive" Amico games coming out on other systems now, no matter how well they sell. It's also why they would celebrate just the founder's editions coming out, which would mean a dead system with no new games as a shelf trophy.
It really makes DJC look like an even bigger clown than we already knew he was. I doubt Greg's words will be any kind of wakeup call for him. If anything, he'll just double down on denying reality.
@@SomeOrangeCat I was subbed with DJC's channel from 2021 and I unsubbed this year. Through this time DJC has shown nothing but stupidity. The money gained from licensing to BBG will be used to settle debts and pay overhead not to put out founders. DJC and the rest of us are given the exact same information but he interprets it very wrongly.
Ummm, NOBODY has an Amico, DJC. What is going on in that head of yours? Move on from the Amico already. You're the only one still banging a drum for this crapsole.
He he ha ha. Did you ever think of the fact that many who want these games actually WANT a step backwards? Will the Amico console/Home version be better? Sure. But it will cater to an audience it's selling to, and that is not Jeff's audience. You saw the reviews? You don't like it? Cool. Don't buy it then. Simple. Hate coming. Phhhfffft to all of you.
@@SomeOrangeCat Hey, it's Grumpy Pants! Coward? I never saw that video till now because I never cared. You don't like it? You don't understand it? You have an "opinion" on these games? Cool.

@@PuzZLeR_00 You've already stated that you're proud to be an idiot. Maybe you can go cheer up your fellow dumb dumb Devastated Lost Cause. He got BTFO'd so hard he stopped doing Amico Forever.
You've been defending Amico for 4 years. Very few share your level of excitement for these games so you certainly must have bought them and spent several hours playing them by now. What did you think about these games? What did you especially like about them? Describe the "human experience" you enjoyed while playing them.
@@nolster1 GuZZlEr has no logic. He's the guy that said he was going to contact Mattel to save Amico lol. He's just as low IQ as Relic Gamer talking about he'll make Amicos by hand for the company for free. It's like a child speaking. Mattel licenses PROPERTIES now, GuZzLeR should already know this as Tommy claimed a Hot Wheels game license was secured for Amico. These guys live in such a fantasy world, that's why they say silly things like he just said above. He didn't even grasp what Jeff was saying.
Why doesn't he ever show video of him playing the Amico version?

it sucks, kids. It's not finshed and BBG doesn't seem to provide any support to fix stuff.
DJC’s jaw is constantly on the ground, lately.
Probably worn and stretched from sucking off Tallarico.
This video made me laugh like a madman. “Not everybody has an Amico!”
The shill is strong with this one.
Jeff Gerstmann is literally the only person left who has or had the title "Video Game Journalist" that I trust.

@@ccricers I know right! 😂 Tommy basically pump and dump these fools without the decency to wipe afterwards
Imagine?😅. Oh no my friend it's already happened.
Cant wait for Amico Home to hit on chicks in a bar and challenge them to a game of Astrosmash 😂
Jeff is spot on. This feels like some of those $5-$10 short arcade experiences in the early Xbox and Xbox 360 years of digital games.
BBG Entertainment/DJC wristbands coming soon!
I disagree with Jeff on one thing. They're not even XBLA worthy. They belong one tier lower, Xbox Live Indie Games, for no more than 240 points, where the storefront was more hidden, and the games had no QC from official staff. I found games there with stolen assets, too.
The old Live Arcade games at 360 launch were really interesting and looked better.

They're the kind of games that you wait for to go on sale for $2.99 and you still feel like you overpaid after playing them .
