Hey The system never came out, so this is the next best thing "" Need more Games please ""
★★★★★
This is the best gaming app ever, because I am retro game fan.
★★☆☆☆
Tried it out but couldn't get it to work right. Crashed a couple of times on my Chromebook while trying to use the menu. I actually bought the physical games years ago but could not find any way to input the codes. What a waste. Also, can't figure out how the side buttons work on the controller. The app shows them on the side of the phone, but that is obviously just my volume and power buttons. Also, the games are ridiculously priced.
★★☆☆☆
The "Free" app is pointless, offering only overpriced, mediocre mobile games at $14.99 each—comparable to discounted AAA games. It stems from a failed console project that wasted millions, patched into this subpar app. Worse, you need a separate device to play, as the games can't run on the same device using the app (well they will run, but there is no way to control the games, whose bright idea was this?) This poorly designed app is arguably one of the most useless on the Google Play Store.
★★☆☆☆
What a wonderful scam the Amico was. 17 million dollars stolen from gullible, naïve people on Kickstarter. This app is an insult to everyone who was lied to and used. I gave this app one star because at least it didn't steal any money from anyone, like the Kickstarter did. Tommy Tallarico has doo-doo for a soul, and his mother is not proud of him, despite what he claims.
