In all fairness the people at Atari Age were comparing it far more to Atari VCS and Coleco Chameleon at the time. And that’s a very low bar to pass. And with Tommy it wasn’t just he did video game music but also he hooked people with his claims of many industry connections.

Intellivision was the first main console I was introduced to as a kid. The games were great for the early 80’s but I knew immediately that this Amico was not something I’d be interested in. Over the past 20 years I’ve owned several retro game packs of old arcade and Intellivision hits. I would buy these out of nostalgia and the result was always the same. I’d be entertained for about an hour and then I’d eject the disk and it would sit on my shelf never to be touched again. The simplicity of those kind of games just didn’t hold my interest anymore. So why would I spend hundreds of dollars to invest in a console that retreads the same concepts with almost none of the features that we’ve come to appreciate in current day gaming? No way was I going to order that.

I remember buying an Atari 2600 Jr. with tons of games a few years back it was great at first but barely got any use onwards when I had to downsize my collection it was the first on the chopping block. Your right the games from that generation don't translate well for 2022 and i think that's what would make the Amico a mediocre system that if it does get released will see small sales and then a year or two down the road quietly get its plug pulled like the Ouya.

Pat and Ian were right all along when it comes to the Amico, and I give them props for it. The chances of the Amico releasing is somewhere between zero and nothing at this point.

Instead of trying to develop a whole new platform, just get an off the shelf SOC, slap Linux on it, add a programming library, and stuff a simulator of their old platform to make the old games playable. Charge a nominal fee for access to the old games, encourage development by independent coders, open the system up, share profits with developers, and lock the system down (a bit) to prevent piracy. I could do this for $100K in less than a year. It should be cheap to do.

It's a completely different world now than it was in the early 2000s. Would say most of those changes are not particularly great. Some really cool stuff has happened but it came with some inherently awful stuff as well.

The thing is, the closer you look at Tommy's credits, the less impressive they become. Tommy's most recent claim to fame was the "oof" sound, but we know that was done by someone else. Tommy credited that someone else UNTIL the sound became a meme. Once it did, then Tommy said "that was mine". If you look at the vast majority of credits he claims for his (purchased) Guinness Book record of "most videogame credits", you'll see they're for a licensed collection of generic sound effects that his studio put out with very little of that collection being Tommy's exclusive work. There's likely other people with even more credits for using licensed software (like any number of compression libraries or video codecs) under the record's loose criteria that could claim that title- if they bothered to pay Guinness for a vanity award. Then there's the constant claiming "Tommy did the sound for Metroid Prime" which has been thoroughly debunked, or his claim for the first use of a sampled guitar in a videogame (again completely debunked). When you get to his "real" achievements in game soundtracks, you should ask the question "what would you say Tommy actually did". Most of his Sega CD soundtracks were for titles for which music already existed either from a movie license or a cartridge version (that Tommy didn't write). When interviewed about his Terminator Sega CD soundtrack, Tommy let slip that he did not know how to read or write music. He brushed that off with "I can just hire some guy to do that for me". Well if you can't read or write music, how do you take a piece of music that he plays (by ear) and orchestrate that for other instruments (that Tommy doesn't play)? He can't. He has to hand it to some "paid flunky" who DID bother to go to college and learn music theory, and tell that person "do all the other parts and leave a spot for me to improvise some sick guitar riffs". For the Amico, Tommy claimed that he did all the music and sound design for all the titles, but then a developer let slip on his Twitter feed that they (not Tommy) had done music and sound for at least one title. We've seen in 2020/21 Tommy was (under)paying college students to make games (hence all the stolen assets), so is it hard to think at the start of his career Tommy was passing the bulk of his work to some uncredited kid (drowning in student loan debt) desperate to break into the biz? And it's not like this is unheard of. Steve Jobs (in)famously conned Atari into thinking he was an engineer, but "sub-contracted" his assignments to Steve Wozniak. And in Tommy's mind he would see that as "I'm just like Steve Jobs. Cool!" The one thing we know for sure that Tommy is good at is selling is Tommy, but once you dig deeper you might (like J Allard did) realize that's only of value to Tommy and doesn't contribute to the success of anything other than Tommy's image.

When someone ask Tommy about Earthworm Jim and his reply was forget about that here other Games that are worst then that I want to talk about.

I always suspected it would be canceled and never be released.

Still remember calling Tommy out at a VGL concert in early 2019 during a Q&A segment in the middle of the show. He was not happy when i suggested that maybe he'd be better off as a publisher instead of a console manufacturer.

This has been the age of scam and fly-by-night consoles. Maybe one day, someone will write a book about it, and many of us will buy the book, read it, and laugh at the memory of this bizarre time period. I'm not surprised that this one crashed and burned. The one that I'm hoping for is the KFConsole. It is so absurd that I hope it actually exists one day, but sadly, I doubt it will ever come to fruition. I guess I'll have to find another way to keep my greasy chicken warm. I wonder what might be next. It would be hard to top the KFConsole for utter weirdness, but there are plenty of forgotten ancient consoles and computer systems that could provide inspiration for a junky console that will never be released. How about a new Magnavox Odyssey that is inferior to the original one? I'm sure that would sell. Or maybe bring back the Timex Sinclair and shine it up a bit. For a dual-use device like the KFConsole, here is an idea - the Bong Console - a third-rate game console with a built-in bong so that you can wallow in weed so much that you don't care that the games are crap. For those who don't like weed, the Keg Console might be a better choice. It would have an attached keg with a tap in a convenient location. You could fill it with cheap booze or Mountain Dew, so you wouldn't have to get up from your game to get a drink. Combine that with a KFConsole, and gamers would never have to move from the gaming chair again. Finally, all of these crazy consoles will have to feature NFTs because block chain is the wave of the future, and we will all learn to love NFTs whether we want to or not.

Genuinely saddened. Intellivision Lives! was one of my favorite retro compilations, and I loved Tommy back on Judgement Day when G4 started

My guess as to why Tommy stuck with the product, and why he wouldn't listen to reason, can be explained with his success with Video Games Live. He has said when he started it no one believed in the idea, and that probably carried over to the Amico I'm sure. I don't think he started it off as a scam, but he was in far too deep to just accept that it wasn't going to work out, having success as big as VGL and going to a failure as big as this was probably something he didn't want to accept/let happen.

That intro is very hypnotic......

Update! Did you see they released the "Amico Home Beta" on Android and iOS? Its supposed to simulate the whole console with multiple devices to replicate the console and its controllers and its super broken.

I think they could have been successful if they just remastered, reimagined, and cloned popular retro games and made them to work on modern consoles with modern controllers. They could have released new games on the big 3 and steam. The console and controller were going to be a major financial drain, and they would only need a studio to make the games and not needed all of the staff and space.

I wonder what Victor Lucas would say about Tommy. They worked on a show together on I think g4 but could've just been syndicated. Anyway he's a man child with no right to run a company with investor money. Period.

Oh no now who will fail to steal my money? 😢

It's a tremendously tremendously sad day. So sad ok? 👌 believe me, believe me 👌.

So… you are telling me there won’t be an Earthworm Jim 4?!?

@@SapphireKnight675 lol i wasn’t planning on getting this either way, but would be smart for them to bring it to consoles.

DSP is a man.

I forgot that it was even a thing.

Rich tomorrow- quantum TV tickled me and now my birds are mad at me let's get into it

If you are not Microsoft, Sony, or Nintendo, do not try to make a console. It will only end in failure.

This intro feels like a dmt trip

Tommy ScammedAmicos

The second I saw that controller, I knew the Amico was doomed

QUANTUM JUST UPLOADED A SPICY VIDEO ON CONTROVERSIAL TAKES

Imagine being a legit legend in the gaming community and still failing and trying to scam people

It probably won't end until there's an FBI investigation. Then there would be the trial and sentencing etc. Never going to happen nor should anyone expect prosecutions to happen in a world like this. The US can be weird though.

Yeah, it's just basic underpowered Middle-Wear like in Smart TV's and $100.00 PADS etc.

@message on telegram @ReviewTechUsa Wow, do you think these wealthy folks can use AGI to figure out how the rich tyrants can pay the taxes and wages that they've been subverting our societal government to avoid or how to pick fruits and vegetables without generations of Mexican slaves that they use to drive down the wages of everyone born here too?

Who really needs that system it’s not as great as the PS5 and xbox series X it’s just like buying another NES classic mini console buying the Sega genesis 2 mini is even a waste of money just hack the ones you got at home how many consoles do you need the only 3 important consoles you must own are the xbox series X PS5 Nintendo Switch

There is no winner I agree he’s not embarrassed of his fake messages lies either I dare him to message from his real account he had for years

Relevant since the early 2000's is being generous. The man has produced a video game cover band. The little emperor has no clothes.

The mario paint music sold me already

Bombsquad looks like a great value brand 'keep talking and nobody explodes' knockoff.

I would never buy it the switch is very Superior than that and for $300 that’s just terrible

There was no chance this was going to succeed. When you immediately remove yourself from the competition and target a niche audience, it's a set up for failure. Unfortunately, I now have to assume they took Earthworm Jim and Toejam and Earl with them when they sank. Very sad.

EWJ is property of Interplay and they (Interplay not Intellivision) are producing a new cartoon show for it. Toejam and Earl Back in the Groove is out and playable in other platforms. The dev said he had some ideas for how to add Amico exclusive features that would work with the controller, but it never materialized.

Tommy's Video Game Live performances were amazing. I attended one in 2013 and loved it. Aside from these I know nothing about the man. I saw him after the concert to get a signature on some memorabilia from the event and he was very friendly. Definitely didn't strike me as an "egotistical maniac" but I don't know, sometimes people change.

and the empty physical games boxes , that was funny.

Finally time to get some closure on this saga

Polymega is next. Radio silent since may on Twitter and by email. Several people ask for refund and no answers.

Rich, your not pessimistic, your a realist.

I will not slink away like a snake. I will stand up and own what I did. I apologize wholeheartedly, sir. I am a douchebag.
