Re: "Missing" Genesis Beat 'Em Up Paprium Is Finally Playable Under Emulation

Paprium is a classic game, really innovative for the genre. It's a shame the drama around it ruined the game's reputation considering how good it is. Having said that this is technically pirating especially considering Fonzie did a crowdfunding campaign to bring the game to other platforms. I have no doubt he'll start DMCA proceedings.

@KingMike That is awesome! 😂

@Hairlesswookiee That's what they're trying to do.

Re: More Amico Games Release On Switch & Steam, As The Company Still Insists Hardware Is The Goal

@Andee It can be summed up by these things:

  • Tommy Tallarico couldn't keep his mouth shut and overpromised endless possible games for the Amico which were just suggestions therefore people say he's a liar.
  • Amico crowd funded $17 million through Kickstarter, sorry, investment crowdfunding and where did all that money go is the question always being asked.
  • Detractors are very concerned about the investors being misled about the people recruited to lead this project because of course putting out a new console you're not going to hype and market it to investors.
  • The console is a scam because it's about casual games (which is a bad thing apparently).
  • Tommy in an interview called out gamers as being elitists for not wanting simple casual gaming but in anger called gamers "gaming racists".
  • Tommy follows right wing people so that means the Amico is a scam and shouldn't come out.
  • Apparently a furniture lawsuit means the console is a scam. The detractors are REALLY invested in that one for some reason.

Above all the reason the CUPodcast is covering it is because when they said they didn't see the point of the console Tommy snubbed them online and dismissed their opinions so as a result those two have been grifting off the drama since 2018. The same podcast that shadow banned me for not liking their favourite Star Wars movies. Meanwhile their biggest fans have a subreddit and Discord to harass, insult, do defamation videos and generally dox or obsess about anyone that's remotely been interested in the console. 🙄
