Im not saying this to troll but does anyone actually give a shit about Atari anymore? I can unequivocally say I do not. I didn't 20 years ago. The 2600 is goddamn ancient and everything they did after that was either shit or got steamrolled.
NES Classic was a big hit because the people who grew up with the system have strong feels and also often young kids that they want to introduce the games to. SNES Classic probably will be a big hit because the games are great and it has strong nostalgia.
Trying to revive this brand is like trying to revive some old ass car brand only your grandpa cares about. It would be better if "Atari" named it something that didn't remind people of a company that has failed like 5 times over.
