"Our trusted partnership with Ark Electronics reflects our focus on an

integrated approach to developing Amico," said Tommy Tallarico, President and

CEO of Intellivision Entertainment. "We look forward to a collaborative

relationship with Ark and leveraging their industry experience and expertise to

provide a world-class gaming system."

Amico will cater to an underserved segment of the home gaming market, offering

April 2021, Amico is distinct in offering non-violent games that are fun for

all ages. Featuring cutting-edge technology that encourages cross-generational

play, Amico is designed to be enjoyed by anyone, regardless of skill level.

With a budget-friendly price, six pre-loaded games with each system, and

additional games typically priced around $9.99, Amico will further

differentiate itself from other gaming options.

"Ark's commitment to deploying a comprehensive suite of manufacturing services

to Intellivision resonates well with our home entertainment product strategy,"

said Michael Lang, EVP, and Chief Revenue Officer of Ark Electronics. "The

combined passion and transparent relationship with Intellivision go well beyond

the traditional vendor relationship and we're delighted to manufacture a truly

revolutionary and family-oriented gaming system that will bring families

together worldwide."

Together, Ark and Intellivision are excited to introduce a new system that,

like the original Intellivision of the late 1970s, changes the gaming landscape

and sets the modern standard for multiplayer fun. Additional information about
