When that guy said "Tommy's a good guy" clearly he meant the one that used to call into the podcast to leave voicemails every week. And I agree, that Tommy seems like a really good guy!
It cracks me up that in both encounters someone goes from being hostile and confrontational and then ends the encounter suggesting/demanding someone Patrizio and Ian don’t like be on the podcast. As of that was ever gonna happen 😂
I had a great time at Retropalooza. It was a pleasure to meet Pat and the SNES collection book is a thing of beauty. Pat looks like he has a time machine with a treadmill in it.
@@ponygrrrl I see, I know I get like this some times as well when i have alot going on and im feeling stressed., Pat rolled with it well throughout the podcast instead of getting upset in response.
I guess they had to be pretty uninformed to be Amico fans in the first place - but to STAY that way, after two years of delays and excuses just seems like willful ignorance.
The people that still think Amico has a chance either don't follow it much, or listen to everything the company says and treat it as gospel. There's little in-between.
Nah, it’s just another case of sunk cost fallacy. The guy probably spent a good chunk of money on the crowdfunding campaign, refuses to accept he was scammed and is now looking for a third party to blame.
Most likely just trapped in the amico echo chamber. He's probably only ever seen or heard about the CU podcast through out of context clips, 2nd hand information and straight up made up shit on forums/reddit. I have to say that echo chamber's got to be getting pretty lonely these days.
We at least know they jumped on the bandwagon pretty late in the game to get the impression that Pat and Ian were the ones starting drama with Tommy lol. According to Ian's story though the guy never really mentioned Amico but rather was just fixated on Tommy lol.
Yeah Casey and I did go by your booth with Amico shirts. But it was for good fun. This also explains Ian's look on his face.... "is this an ambush or am I being punked look!" And I also know for a fact the guy you had the confrontation with wasn't from the intellivision booth!!!!!
Why is it that whenever things like these go fucky the first response is "You should have let me/the guy behind the idea on the podcast to smooth things out" like... why?
I think guys like Tommy believe they can use their talking skills and “charisma” to win people over in a conversation by hiding the facts and focusing on personalities
Everyone that kissed the ring of Tommy and went on the attack for whatever reasons these past few years, all look completely idiotic with their noses so brown. Now we can all look at them and just laugh whenever they try to justify their words/actions because they have absolutely lost any credibility they may have had.
It's funny b/c a lot of these same people saw right through Mike Kennedy and the Coleco chameleon for what it was. But b/c these idiots liked Tommy and saw no wrong in anything he did, so obviously his console couldn't be a scam. They do look like idiots for giving him an unopposed platform, shilling this piece of crap game system, giving him money, or just out and out attacking anyone who said anything slightly negative and lying on his behalf.
"Sewer people" is a bit mean to actual sewer dwellers. Lotta good folks live in sewers. TMNT, Darkman, Ron Perlman in Beauty and the Beast, the Morlocks from X-Men... They don't deserve to be compared to those jerkfaces who attacked you.
I’ve been waiting to hear this story lol. I shouldn’t be surprised this stuff happens but yet I still am. I think I’m more baffled that a Tommy fan still exists and wanted to even confront you about him.
With a "haters" folder, that. Which really seems hilarious. Imagine if you will, you're trying to launch a product. Would you, pray a little finger, let some critics get in the way if you even had an ounce of confidence in your product? Tommy's ego was so huge that he tripped over his own face.
I have no idea why anyone would think it a good idea to confront you two over a system which as of this writing, _literally has no manufacturing path._ But cheering for a bastardization named after some irrelevant system from before the Famicom doesn't exactly seem like the most logical idea. Maybe they'd like a timeshare over a bridge in Death Valley. What's left for the Amico, anyway? Even Quark would have gone to Odo's office to report it so it could be put out of it's misery.
Love that last point about maturing is when you don’t feel s need to acquiesce to someone else’s hostilities. It’s like when i was early in my adulthood i put up with a lot of crap in my first part time job because i desperately wanted to save up for a graphics tablet and basically couldn’t afford to tell people that were pushing me off to go cram it with walnuts. But nowadays I’m older and don’t have to put up with anywhere near as much crap as before. Just recently i got into a heated argument with someone iv was previously on friendly terms with over a particular thing about cannabis and driving impaired. Honestly i didn’t really care that he had a different view to mine but the way he was arguing his position was so disrespectful that i ended up saying to him that his of “it IS because I say it IS” style of arguing may work on his son and other children but when trying to convince a fellow adult you need evidence and a convincing argument if you hope to sway them to your point of view. The more you try to grow beat them in s father knows best kinda way the more you’re gonna convince them that you’re fulla shit
It was all just 40 plus yo fan boys who remembered it from their youth, they knew what it was but because it had the name intellivision they had to love it.
In regards to review Tech USA, he is one of the biggest fraud on RUclips the guy barely play video games and talks about them (he has said this multiple times) I remember him trying to play dying light and couldn’t even press the jump button to climb. No one should take him serious I can’t tell you how many times I’ve seen a video of him talking about a video game that I played and he’s talking about and I know he didn’t play it.
I know Ian is a good person, and for someone to get in his face, give him crap , and for him to reason with the person and explain his stance, that is pure class, hats off to Ian. I hate that some people have to deal with this kind of nonsense, but what you guys do means a lot. This is a community and folks have to hold the con artists accountable. You have to say the truth and take a stand, even when idiots start drama over it, I respect that.
That's actually a thing. I've had arguments with people who wont even acknowledge that an argument is taking place. Luckily I didn't marry any of them.
“I was confronted by an Amico supporter. Only one.” You could’ve just stopped the discussion there. Mic drop. Only one. At a festival about video games.
I tried to meet pat at a SoCal retrocon years ago and I felt slighted by him at the time. I will give pat credit though, I brought it up to him on a Steam forum and he apologized and said that was not his intention. That's really all I can ask... I hope to get the chance to meet pat again and under better circumstances.
At this point with Retro Bro and others it's more of abandoning ship before it sinks. Smash JT is still trying to salvage his relationship with Phil lol
@@linuxrobotgeek he is of lower intelligence than it appears. He even said it himself. He is the type of person who will be scammed and scam others bc he can only handle doing tasks where the effort is so minimal than any reward seems unjustified. Luckily for him he is a stay at home husband living off his wife. So are quite a few Amico cult members. For example- rather than work harder on RUclips content he once planned to only make video types that got 1000 views right away. He would rather just become whatever people tell him to than work at anything he personally desires to.
DJC the "Devastating Just Cause" is the investor that makes pro amico videos but never says hes invested into Amico. He invested $600 and is probably the biggest Amico cultist on youtube. Hes currently waiting for Mike Mullis to send him the supposed amico test unit. Whats funny is its the same amico they used in the John Alvarado unboxing video. When Mike Mullis takes it out of the box you can see the same box damage in the same exact spots from the Alvarado unboxing video. If they had more then 1 Amico why didn't they send out multiple units at once. Obviously they only have 2 or 3 of these built, and there using these low viewership youtubers to try to draw in some more investors which isn't going to work.
I am full on going to confront you Ian if I ever see you in public... for the same reason. Kind of. I am going to demand that you heckle Tommy more than you have been, and I am angry that it slowed down. So maybe you just meet in the middle between me and this other guy and keep doing what your doing. Cheers!
In Pat and Ian's defense stating facts about how shitty the amico would be if it ever released, and how Tommy ripped people off isn't attacking Tommy, it's the truth.
That guy had to be clearly deluded to still be supporting the Amico and Tommy at this point. Yeah, those devs would probably be wise to try to get their games out some other way, than be tied to the Amico.
If I could go back in time to my college self watching the old G4 cable channel, I'd be like "Hey, you see that Tommy guy talking about game music? Wait'll you hear this shit..."
i know it would only cause drama for pat to list them, but can anyone provide a list of the youtubers/authors that were involved in the amico shilling? I have a huge ethical problem with it and want to avoid any of their content in the future.
Guys, next time some shmuck goes after you over Amico or whatever, how about you do a live read of your Earthy Select ad copy? Because I think the Amicult needs some CBD to fucking chill.
Just catching up on all the Amico coverage from the last six months and I nearly spit out my water when I heard Ian say all of the sudden: "WHOSE IDEA IS IT TO CONTINUOUSLY ATTACK TOMMY TALLARICO?!?!?"
How did it take me this long to notice that Ian has an Adult. sticker on his laptop? I have the same exact sticker on the back of my car! Got it at the show in San Francisco this past year!
I can't believe that people are still defending a project that officially failed , full of broken promises with proof of bad management of the project, only cause an ok video game composer from the 90s liked and responded comments on a forum, those are sad people , I don't understand when people do for a celebrity and Tommy ins't even one
The guy behind the Coleco Chameleon & that old game auction site once gave me a bunch of free game soundtracks when I asked him if he had anymore for sale when I missed an auction. That doesn’t change the fact that he was a shady businessman that acted horribly to you two & anyone who looked at the Coleco with ANY amount of questions. I’ve been to a Video Games Live concert & own their Blu-Ray from the New Orleans recording when Tommy brought Ralph Baer on stage, doesn’t change the fact that now Tommy is a bad businessman & bad person to anyone that isn’t a fanboy of his.
Pat I actually wish you would have tommy on your show. This would be the 1st time a big time youtuber would hold tommy's feet to the fire. Only smaller youtube critics have held his feet to the fire. Because RTU never really did.
@@pxlsicle At this point, you guys have nothing to say to him and there would be no point to have him on, nor would he want to appear on the CUpodcast now anyways. However, Tommy practically stuck his feet in the fireplace with how he was acting.
It's funny, I agreed with Ian's original opinion on the Amico 100%, and I rarely agree with Ian (especially that much), which is probably why I remember it so well. And yet Tommy and his followers turned it into a tit-for-tat mess. It's so bizarre... None of this needed to happen, but I guess that's what narcissism does to you.
Yeah. It _could have been something,_ but I've not seen such a public display of idiotic management with no impulse control & terrible PR since...2016.
Sorry for spamming the comments - I just want you guys to know that I am grateful for this podcast. I work nights and I look forward to the podcast every day. I look forward to longer episodes if you ever decide to do that! Thanks for being awesome guys!
I actually have an Intellivision Amico shirt, but I got it during the very beginning before all hope was lost. It's actually an extremely comfortable shirt, but now I'm kind of ashamed to wear it anywhere. Oh well, I guess it'll just be a comfy at-home shirt. Tommy did seem like a good guy, at first. This guy asking why you made it personal clearly didn't watch or listen to what you had to say, they just listened to what Tommy and others had to say and took their side rather than look into it and see what was actually going on from multiple sources. It happens all too frequently these days.
The good thing would be that if you wore it out, 95% of people wouldn't know what it was. However those 5% might think you're a Amico cultist if you do.
@@XanthinZarda That or rub the Amico part off. Want it to stay comfortable. I still love the Intellivision itself. They haven't ruined that much for me.
I was optimistic of it not seeing release, don't get me wrong it would of been great if had of got released with caveat of being in sufficient quantity to sold in retail stores however due to the lack of games on the original system i have to wonder how feasible the amico was the amico at the end oof the day turned into the what happened with every that saw release between 1993-2009/10 both av and hdmi variants atari's failed console releases.. to the actual; point it is easier to port old arcade classics and run them on the 360/one/series x or ps2/ps3/ps4/ps5 these days than waste time in developing a dedicated console for it. 3/4's of the games that came out in the 80's no longer exists as original games companies
Salty Amico people doesn’t surprise me at all I fully stoped watching the channel John “shill” Riggs because of him shilling for the Amico with he’s boxed RFID chips that meant nothing except people spending hard earned $$ on them to end up with useless pieces of plastic in a very average game box. Made me very angry him showing them off to he’s viewers which I’m pretty sure would have been gifted to him from he’s mate TT in lieu of him showing he’s viewers and shilling for them so they could rip more people’s $$ from them.
Anybody who makes $17 million dollars of other people's money just disappear should be under intense scrutiny. Hopefully it makes it that much harder for the next person who has intentions of making millions of dollars disappear.
Tfs Frieza: have you ever heard of the Coleco Chameleon? TT: n…no? TFS Frieza: funny. I expect the same thing when i ask the next person about the Intellivision Amico

I have no desire to hold Tommy’s feet
@@pxlsicle You wouldn't have to. Tommy would have them in his footbath aka amico. 🤣
@@pxlsicle At this point, you guys have nothing to say to him and there would be no point to have him on, nor would he want to appear on the CUpodcast now anyways. However, Tommy practically stuck his feet in the fireplace with how he was acting.
It's funny, I agreed with Ian's original opinion on the Amico 100%, and I rarely agree with Ian (especially that much), which is probably why I remember it so well.
And yet Tommy and his followers turned it into a tit-for-tat mess. It's so bizarre... None of this needed to happen, but I guess that's what narcissism does to you.
Yeah. It _could have been something,_ but I've not seen such a public display of idiotic management with no impulse control & terrible PR since...2016.
So why is Tommy selling his collection?
Sorry for spamming the comments - I just want you guys to know that I am grateful for this podcast. I work nights and I look forward to the podcast every day. I look forward to longer episodes if you ever decide to do that! Thanks for being awesome guys!
“Little crackly, on there.”
Am I the only one that thought the Delta 8 ad was cringe?
I actually have an Intellivision Amico shirt, but I got it during the very beginning before all hope was lost. It's actually an extremely comfortable shirt, but now I'm kind of ashamed to wear it anywhere. Oh well, I guess it'll just be a comfy at-home shirt. Tommy did seem like a good guy, at first. This guy asking why you made it personal clearly didn't watch or listen to what you had to say, they just listened to what Tommy and others had to say and took their side rather than look into it and see what was actually going on from multiple sources. It happens all too frequently these days.
The good thing would be that if you wore it out, 95% of people wouldn't know what it was. However those 5% might think you're a Amico cultist if you do.
@@heisensaul5538 Such is the dilemma. I think the world has had enough of strange cults these days so I'll keep it as pajama wear just in case. lol
You could wear it ironically or get it kitted up with patches for other failed products? Maybe even slap a DJ Slope logo on it somewhere.
@@XanthinZarda That or rub the Amico part off. Want it to stay comfortable. I still love the Intellivision itself. They haven't ruined that much for me.
I was optimistic of it not seeing release, don't get me wrong it would of been great if had of got released with caveat of being in sufficient quantity to sold in retail stores however due to the lack of games on the original system i have to wonder how feasible the amico was
the amico at the end oof the day turned into the what happened with every that saw release between 1993-2009/10 both av and hdmi variants atari's failed console releases..
to the actual; point it is easier to port old arcade classics and run them on the 360/one/series x or ps2/ps3/ps4/ps5 these days than waste time in developing a dedicated console for it. 3/4's of the games that came out in the 80's no longer exists as original games companies
"SEEEEAALLED!!"
Reviewtech is still around?
I found a sealed copy of Sigma Star Saga at my local thrift store, opened and played it. No regrets!
But Ian playing the intellivision Amico will Bring back such great memories!
Ian should have let this guy know there was an option 3
@@heisensaul5538 facts!
7:20 watch pats body language what do you think when he rubs his eyes really hard I think he contemplated it for a second
I think “A Little Crackly” would make for a great slogan
I've got a question when it finally comes out and if it's awesome are you guys getting one or not ???
I gave you a like just because you played the "Seeeeeeeeeeealed" sound bite.
Salty Amico people doesn’t surprise me at all I fully stoped watching the channel John “shill” Riggs because of him shilling for the Amico with he’s boxed RFID chips that meant nothing except people spending hard earned $$ on them to end up with useless pieces of plastic in a very average game box.
Made me very angry him showing them off to he’s viewers which I’m pretty sure would have been gifted to him from he’s mate TT in lieu of him showing he’s viewers and shilling for them so they could rip more people’s $$ from them.
Lol the thumbnail got me
Anybody who makes $17 million dollars of other people's money just disappear should be under intense scrutiny. Hopefully it makes it that much harder for the next person who has intentions of making millions of dollars disappear.
who was the famous author they were talking about??
Brett Weiss I assume
Tommy went too far talking about the hair.
Love the SNES Classic in the ad.
"I was confronted by one amico supporter; only one." Well, yeah, the other two are busy doing the company's PR work.
“Tommy Can’t lose”
Very impressed with the sponsor . Yum
thank you :)
Tfs Frieza: have you ever heard of the Coleco Chameleon?
TT: n…no?
TFS Frieza: funny. I expect the same thing when i ask the next person about the Intellivision Amico
The Amico was a scám, dudes..
Ian I’ll work security for you anytime
