Over the next three to four months, Atari U.S. will seek buyers for some of its assets, including the Atari logo and the company's games catalog. Atari as a whole owns or manages more than 200 games and franchises.

The gaming landscape has changed dramatically since Atari was founded in 1972. Atari scored hits with groundbreaking gaming consoles and classic titles like "Pong," "Centipede" and "Asteroid," but later lost its dominance to rivals like Nintendo. The brand has bounced around through several different owners.
What was your favorite Atari game? I'll have to go with Tank Command.

Wish we had ours. Having that metal switch and wood grain console in your living room would be a real blast from the past now.
We had "Krull" the video game.
Among many others of course.

remember with atari, if you took a picture of your tv screen beating a certain level or score, they would send you a patch.
i think i had one for keystone capers and plaque attack.
