At this point in time in 2022, Amico’s market no longer exists. If amico came in 2017-18 when the classic console craze was in full swing then it made some sense. But that ship has sailed. With switch and mobile phones satisfying the casuals and the families. Amicos market has dried up. So even if this console were to release with no hiccups or controversies, I doubt that it would be a success. It would be Ouya 2.0 that people would give up on in a matter of weeks.
Some did which is expected during a pandemic and delayed... The best games in history were delayed, Amico is simply close to the release as it is fully functional with many completed games. Give it a chance and to the people too...
Do not get why people love Tommy? The few minutes of footage i saw of him on The Video Game Years, he came off very unlikable. I find him extremely hard to watch. It's baffling all this over some cell phone quality games. Oh your (NPD) ep. was so spot on.
Tommy has a used car salesman personality . He tells you what you want to hear , flamboyant exaggerated bullshit about his product , he compliments people who probably aren't used to any praise and he promises small youtubers instant views . Some people love that ego stroking personality where it makes most people sick .
Only time I saw him was on the Rerez channel where he seemed likeable enough and that multiplied with my love of the Sonic and the Black Knight OST that he played a part in. I was never swayed to support his new console or him though.
It is scary how much it sounds like OAXIS from the initial description. I'm sure I'm not the first to draw a line between Butch Hartman and Tommy Tallarico though.
@@baconatorrodriguez4651 Nice. That would be fun! Hope he drives it safely. The Ferrari love thing is a joke on the time Smash JT was "romanced" into investing 10 grand in the Amico after being wheeled around in Amico dreamerTommy Tallerico' bright red Ferrari
After initial release of the amico console instead of keeping families together it was found the amico actually rips families apart parents complain they spent all this money on junk parents complain to the children there are no games for this console kids complain dad the game sucks dad there's no more games there's only 3 hypothetically this is more than likely what would occur when families sit down to play this piece of crap
I love Tommy and Intellivision. But from day 1 the writing was on the wall, Amico was a bad idea. Still could have sold well if it made it to market. I'd like to find out the details of what happened. Who's job was it to complete the firmware and OS. Why didn't they get it done. Was the controller that caused issues ? Or just poor company management. Was someone pretending to work and didn't . Everyone blaming Tommy but he wasn't the only one behind this. He also had David Perry at the helm the whole time. I heard they got 10's of millions out of investors. But not sure.
"Still could have sold well if it made it to market" Absolutely not. The initial ~2019 claims were complete and utter lies with no basis in reality, the actual to-market version at 250+ USD with a small selection of shovelware games would have been an absolute flop.
@@g10118 Video games are a form of art. And nobody knows how well art will do until it hits the market. Just like a new song. People can guess , but nobody knows. That is a fact. I agree it likely would not sell well. By guessing.
They are simply releasing a new console (again during a pandemic, you guys are truly unfair), there's no point on trying to just find all the time negative things to say and just make videos to be negative... That's different than liking or not a console. They are at the point of negotiating a deal... You guys are blind then calling people excited a cult... Well we have the right to be excited about a console and to admire also members of their team which is normal with the resume they have, then you are just taking anything about this console very unfairly and unreasonably negative. All the people here hating on the console are those not reasonable and part of a cult. Simply being excited about a console that is now working and having many games completed there's nothing wrong, you guys are the ones wrong simply hating on pacific people and a simple video game console. It makes no sense. You literally hate and give no chance to something new, great and with great people that you judge.
Saggy, it's time to start singing now!
😅
Take off that face diaper and sing like a canary Melonz
3 BILLION CASUAL GAMERS, UNTAPPED CUSTOMER MARKET, TOO MANY BUTTONS!!!!! WE CRACKED THE CODE LESS BUTTONS, GO GET THAT MONEY BOYS 🤑💰🤑💰🤑💰
💰💰💰💵💵💵
It's silly to see a COO use the term haters lol
One man’s disaster is another man’s treasure
@A Volpe for real! I've been thoroughly entertained by watching this dumpster fire burn the past few years!
The only way Tommy could make money of off this is making a documentary of this disaster. Like the fyre festival.
The Amico is the Brendan Schaub of video game consoles.
Jeff doesn't even want to talk about it 😅
Who cares if Smash JT doesn't like the Amico anymore... He doesn't make much sense now and he might change his opinion again with time...
@@FrancoisTremblay77 Jeff from Giant Bomb yo😂
It was 4 years of empty promises and lies.

A reminder that even gamers detached from this think this is all insane.

@@FrancoisTremblay77, doesn't look like it's at all close to release.
@@FrancoisTremblay77And so far, Jeff was right the whole time! Some of those games are now gonna be on phones!

What an uninspired crew there . lol. Maybe they need Ferrari love in their lives
Pretty sure Gerstmann before has said he had a fancy supercar

They all look very unhealthy. They look run down, working too many hours. End the 5 day work week.

What flavor is Tommy's Koolaid?
Amico Simp
This whole thing was a great lesson for you. Reflect on how silly you were and try to get yourself together.
Hi Tommy.....
