I won’t even attempt to estimate how many PCs are out there in the market, but it’s a lot and even without a dedicated graphics card most of them can run something like Mighty Goose.

The Switch and the PS4 have both sold over a hundred million units. This is a fundamental issue for the Amico. It’s not locked behind a $250 investment, and while you do have to own at least one of those platforms, most people have one and they can all do a heck of a lot more than just play Mighty Goose. Switch, PS4, XBONE, PC…if you have access to any of these platforms you can get Mighty Goose. But more importantly…you don’t need to buy any new hardware to play Mighty Goose. Mighty Goose does cost $20 if you don’t have Game Pass, which is twice the price of Amico games, but with Game Pass that cost comes down to 0 and even without it I’m sure it will go on sale from time to time. If I had to choose a game for a non-gamer to enjoy Mighty Goose would be the easy answer. Mighty Goose is firmly based in the arcade mindset that it should be fun and obvious from the first time you pick it up.
Fox ‘N Forests had constantly respawning enemies and tightly timed puzzle areas that required you to manage a magic meter. Mighty Goose just requires you progress left to right, blasting everything in your pass. Fox ‘N Forests requires collecting seeds to open up new levels, many of which are hidden or even invisible in the level, and others of which require backtracking with new abilities from older levels. I’ve finished Fox ‘N Forests, the game that Finnigan Fox is a reworking of, and though they have promised to make Finnigan Fox easier than that version I can tell you that Mighty Goose is much more accessible to non-gamers than even a reworked Fox ‘N Forests will be. Both of those are different forms of run ‘n guns, with a similar cartoony art style to Mighty Goose.
Two of the system’s games that people anticipate are Finnigan Fox and Earthworm Jim. Can Amico handle sprites this big and lots of objects and effects on screen with everything moving fast? It's possible, but we haven't seen it yet.Īmico proponents will argue that this is a “hardcore” game and a different market, but that has never made any sense. Except I’m not sure the Amico could handle the game’s graphics, since there are lots of screen filling effects when things blow up and it has large sprites with detailed animation. In other words it’s exactly the kind of game that you’d expect to find on the Amico based on what they’ve shown so far.
It even has a system similar to the Amico’s much touted “karma” engine that gives you extra health and weapon pick ups if you die too much on one checkpoint, tailoring the game’s difficulty to the player’s skill. This is a Metal Slug style arcade run ‘n gun with a pretty forgiving difficulty curve. It’s teen rated, but if you removed a little blood and a few bones that fly out when you run over enemies in a vehicle it could probably get an E. I started out with Mighty Goose, which I downloaded for “free” off Game Pass. The exact kind of gaming experience that the Amico is selling itself on.
I was looking for some accessible quick fix fun, the kind we used to have back in the 8-bit era where gaming didn’t require 10 mapped buttons or 3D camera control. I wanted to play games but I didn’t want to play anything overly complicated or taxing. Yesterday was an Amico kind of day for me.
