Farà come fanno tutti: affitterà la licenza di quei giochi alle software house che ne faranno richiesta, per eventuali remake e spinoff moderni.
A me sembra interessante... ma con i giochi hanno acquistato tutti i copyright e la proprietà intellettuale sugli stessi?
Magari questa azienda è furba e seria.... Non ho tempo per verificare, ma penso che amiga games inc sia una branca di amiga inc, non a caso quest'ultima vende giochi x blackberry

Cosa resta di Amiga ad Amiga Inc.? Il nome? E' ormai semplicemente una holding dei marchi e basta o pare a me? Queste cifre poi indicano numeri da svendita, forse non era poi così ingenua l'idea di Altman di comprarsi tutti i marchi C=Amiga?
...Beh dai dopo una vita l'unica cosa vendibile sono i Marchi...
