    And then Nz could buy it. Make an Atari themed MAME box, call it the DigitalPress-Ganged.

    Apparently their office space has been cleared out and is up for rent by the landlord, so another company who doesn't mind little "running man" Intellivision guys etched into the glass everywhere can snatch that place up.

    This thing could not be deader. It's a shame, I liked what they were doing with the machine, but yet again another group of people wanting to make a new console didn't realize how much money and resources it takes to get a video game system to market.

    Let's not rush to conclusions, according to Greg2600 there's still hope that they'll pull through and this will still come out.

    Hey all I said was the trademark could be renewed if they desired. Could do that and still never come out, which by the way is how I've felt for awhile now. Once that article got written about their lack of progress I knew it was doomed.

    It seems some internal documents concerning the Amico were leaked from a disgruntled employee. Hilarious stuff.

    Here's some direct links to download the documents themselves.
