6 Days Left! $11M passed and MORE UPDATES!
Hi Everyone!,
With only 6 more days left in the Intellivision Amico investment opportunity here on Republic we surpassed $11M in commitments this week with over 4,100 investors believing in us. Thank you all!
On Monday we released a video showing people experiencing Amico for the first time in public. If you haven't watched that video, please check it out to see the incredible reactions that families and everyone of all ages were having. It literally could not have gone better!

But we didn't stop there! We've continued to give demonstrations to parents as well as more hardcore gaming journalists, influencers and YouTubers to get their thoughts and experiences as well. Hardcore gamers can sometimes be the harshest critics! A lot of them spoke about their experiences on their own YouTube channels and we just released a new video today which gives an overview of the hours and hours of super positive content they created after playing Amico. Check out our brand new video!
[For clarification, these people are not affiliated with Intellivision and were not paid or asked to talk about their experiences.]

A few more amazing national articles came out about Amico! Here is one from a big German magazine. Keep in mind... we're still 6 months from launch yet people are already excited to be talking about us. Pretty cool! :) 
Considering we're all about families... wouldn't it be amazing to be talked about in national magazines distributed to millions of families around the United States like Scout Life. Well, if you and your family get Scout Life, make sure to check out page 39 in this months issue! :)
Note: It mentions that Amico is currently in stores, but we won't be in stores til October 10th. But we love the wishful thinking! ;)
A lot of discussion has revolved around how unique and amazing our new controller design is and how easy and intiuitive it is to use... no matter what your gaming (or non-gaming) skill level is. One of the people who played it during our public Texas event did a really great write-up on the controller (including pictures) that they posted here:

By the way... the forum and thread that the write-up was posted in is a very popular video game website and message board that has been around for over 20 years and featured on CNN, CNET, NPR and Entertainment Weekly just to name a few. My "Intellivision Amico - Tommy Tallarico Q&A" thread is one of the biggest threads in the history of the website and currently has over 1 million views and almost 30,000 posts! And to think... the system is still 6 months from launching.
Here are 2 other recent and great videos from people who played extensively with the Amico controller.

Thank you all once again for the incredible support and the amazing REVIEWS you've been leaving here on the Republic page. Your words inspire and motivate us even more (if that is possible!?!). The team really appreciates your help in making this incredible project. We feel so much gratitude for having you be a part of our Intellivision Amico family.
Thank you!
