New Trailer for Intellivision Amico released

Intellivision Entertainment have launched a more detailed trailer for their upcoming console, the Intellivision Amico. The console, which is to launch on the 10th October 2020, is aimed at casual gamers and families.

Last year at the Portland Retro Gaming Expo, Intellivision president Tommy Tallarico announced the console, saying

“We are creating a console that parents WANT to buy, not that they were asked to buy. Almost every game being made for the home consoles these days is created with only the hardcore gamer in mind. We see a world where everyone is interested in playing at home and with friends, but this isn’t currently possible because the barrier to entry is nearly impossible for a non-gamer due to the complexity of the controllers, intricacy of gameplay, expense of the hardware and software and steep learning curve with an unbalanced fun factorfor the beginner. Our goal was to create a console that both gamers and non-gamers are able to have fun with and play together. The Intellivision Amico is our answer to this gaping hole we see within the current video game industry.”
