This is already posted on the main page but I thought I'd add a thread so we can talk about it...

Intellivision Amico is announced almost 40 years after the release of the original Intellivision® home video game system which helped to redefine the video game industry, Intellivision® Entertainment is proud to carry on its “Legacy of Firsts” by announcing the brand new revolutionary family home video game console named Amico™ to be released on October 10th, 2020 (1010 2020). Amico is the Italian word for “friend” or “buddy” and encapsulates an element of the approach and dynamics for what makes the new console so unique and an exciting addition to everyone’s family.

I was there when this was announced this weekend and I really liked it.  Tommy has really planned this out well and has a good idea of what they want to do with this machine.  They also have hired some top people to help for marketing (the two people from Nintendo who helped market the Wii), a hardware engineer from Nintendo, etc.  So, at least this has what sounds like a more solid plan than what Atari has said about their VCS.

The system will come in more colors (woodgrain among them), will have an external adapter so you can play original Intellivision carts, and will have games from not only Intellivision but also Atari and Imagic available.  It will be interesting to see how things develop between now and October 2020!
