Intellivison Is Back Because What the Hell Why Not
The newly announced Intellivision Amico will bring retro classics and some to-be-announced titles to homes in 2020, Intellivision Entertainment announced Monday.
I mock, but this idea of their plan to continue to exist as a platform is clever:
All of the games released for the Intellivision Amico will be rated E for Everyone. Intellivision Entertainment will be the fourth video game console company (alongside Microsoft, Nintendo, and Sony) to join the Entertainment Software Association. Games will be priced quite reasonably at $2.99 to $7.99 apiece, with no downloadable content.
Accessibility, and the lack of wallet-preying DLC is a clever approach.
But I don’t know if it will be enough to stand against the big three, or mobile gaming.
