Just did my first "breaking news" post on TotalAmico :toot: . I found out that additional controllers are now available at Amazon. They're not cheap at £59.99 but I guess that price reflects the tech in them.

All that tech to play what are basically going to be low-budget mobile games?

The controllers have some cool tech that should allow developers to create some interesting stuff, Preezy! I guess the games will be relatively low-budget in comparison to, say, budgets for PS or Xbox games, but they're aimed at differing areas of the gaming market. And they'll be priced between £4 and £10, with no season passes or loot boxes :-).

My uncle who worked for Nintendo knew the Amico would be coming out all the way back in the mid-90's and hid some secret references to it somewhere after the final boss of Ocarina of Time. But they are so subtle only a Total Amico fan would ever find them!

Genuinely a bit apprehensive about expectations of my Twitter channel. Yesterday I had about 15 followers and today there are 80 :shock: . I gotta be sharp with sharing new info as I find it!

I’m not sure they can afford to lose such a high percentage of their sales.

They'll make up the money in software sales from our boy Jawa (pro tip for Timmy Amico, don't put any fields in your games).

Yeah, I was pretty shocked! :o . The main Intellivision channel has, too!

I'm aiming to be fair about my coverage; not fawning but generally positive!

OrangeRKN wrote:Imagine if the Amico got a Fallout 3 port

Oh gee. Now that would be incred. The game probably doesn't make a perfect fit for the Amico - games will generally have small-ish file sizes, be suitable for all ages and with a "pick up and play' style - but, hey, never say never!

I've actually subscribed to the channel purely because Jawa's enthusiasm is so infectious.
