The Amico Intelliance was again delayed

The Amico Intelliance had trouble getting out. Inspired by the original console of the 1980s, was postponed for the third time at the end of 2021. I guess we will just have to wait a little longer to play Moon Patrol.

Although three times sound a lot, it's not so surprising. Covid did a great job by making various parts almost impossible to get. This last notice of delay was sent to those who pre-ordered by e-mail where IntelliCision announced an international supply of components, and various logistical challenges led to this decision.

_ "The Team of Intellivision has worked tirelessly to bring Amico, our family-oriented entertainment system, enthusiastic homes around the world," wrote intellivision. "We have become a strong and stable business of more than 60 passionate team members spread over three continents, representing some of the best talents in the industry. We are all extremely happy to share Amico with you.

_ "We originally planned to launch AMICO in the fall of 2020, but we had to adapt to us in the middle of the global pandemic that disrupted our production. Despite all our efforts, and now faced with new unprecedented international challenges of components and logistics out of our control, we would like to apologize because we are forced to push again the desired launch date. »_

Intelliance confirmed that they are "concentrated and determined to deliver units pre-ordered by the end of the year." In addition, this delay "will leave us more time to optimize our operating system for the future development of the game."

Unfortunately, they are far from being the only ones to have difficulty getting the necessary parts right now. It's just a difficult time right now to try to go out something like a game console.

As an excuse for the delay, IntelliCision promised those who have pre-ordered "a very special thank you gift by e-mail next week".

The Amico will cost between $ 150 and $ 180 and all its games will be classified for everyone or E10 +. All games would be downloaded and cost between $ 3 and $ 8, without DLC or purchases in the high price game.
