It's targeted towards old people who are scared by modern consoles, but how big is that market, really? How many people are afraid of the Nintendo Switch but want to drop over $300 on a console for their grandkids or whatever?Īnd how many of those Grandkids are going to have a Switch with them and just play that instead because the Switch games are so much better? The games all look horrible by modern standards and have old fashioned names like 'Shark Shark' and 'Astro Smash.' The only thing 'special' is the controller, and all that stuff can be done by linking cell phones like with Jackbox Party Packs.

The Amico, on the other hand, does those things but doesn't do the more. It doesn't JUST have those things, of course, but it does have them. I like Tommy Tallarico as a musician, of course, and I'm aware of Intellivision from the past, but what is the market for this thing? If you want a family friendly console with simple games.the Switch exists.

I've been following the Amico reasonably closely and it seems like a bad project.
