The Intellivision Amico saga took another turn today as it was confirmed that the company is to release a smartphone application for iOS and Android that will effectively turn your handset into an Amico console.
The VP of Marketing at Boosteroid revealed that the company is in talks with major publishers to secure exclusive games on the service.
So they're adding Skull and Bones to their service? That doesn't seem exciting at all lol.
The Xbox brand has done a lot of good over the years, but their various blunders are pretty wild to look back on in their magnitude.
Ironically number 9 can save them at this point (releasing games on multiple platforms)
Phil Spencer is the worst that has happened to Xbox.
They built a respectable brand up to Xbox one. Then this guy took over and things became a joke
Really good video.
I remember the days with RRoD was big news on here, N4G.
Microsoft had it turbulence number of years.
Looking at the success of Sea of Thieves despite being 6 years old, time to release Halo, Forza horizon 4 & 5 on PS5. It'll help their revenue
I found this video painful to watch. Can someone list them out?
Top 10 for me from are:
1. 2013 reveal presentation
2. Bundling Kinect 2 with Xbox One
3. RRoD or why rushing to market with hardware is always a bad idea.
4. Buying studios only to close them.
5. Ads on the Home Screen
6. Letting Halo die.
7. Letting Geard of War die.
8. Every console name
9. Charging for Xbox Live on Xbox 360 when Sony let PS3 players play online for free.
10. Cancelling release of OG Xbox games after the Xbox 360 launched.
CRKD, and Limited Run Games announced a special Tomb Raider edition of CRKD's popular NEO S, and Nitro Deck+ controller. - IS
But hey, they made a smartphone app that allows you to play their "exclusive" games. Look at that. /s
Blaze, a smaller company, was able to develop and produce and market the Evercade all during the same time frame as Tommy was talking up the Amico. And the Evercade is now onto their next revision of the hardware after the original, the VS, the EXP and now the Hyper Pocket.
And what has Amico done??? a smart phone app.
Fail
I have no interest in the Amico, but I always visit the Intellivision Amico subreddit just to read the shady things this company did. Its actually equally both fascinating and revolting that this company squandered 17 million dollars and produced jack squat!
I also highly recommend watching the "OOF" YouTube video from hbomberguy, he went down an insane rabbit hole of Tommy Tallerico's lies and deceit. Its a very long video, but its not boring, and has 8.7 million views!
