| | Atari Games - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Atari Games was an American producer of arcade games, and originally part of Atari Inc. When, in 1984, Warner Communications sold the computer and game console divisions of Atari Inc. to Jack Tramiel (who renamed his company "Atari Corporation"), Warner initially retained the arcade coin-op division, renaming it "Atari Games". | | | Atari Games continued to manufacture arcade games and, starting in 1987, also sold cartridges for the Nintendo Entertainment System under the Tengen brand name, including a version of Tetris. | | | Atari Games' corporate name was actually Atari Games Corporation (not to be confused with Jack Tramiel's company whose corporate name was Atari Corporation without the "Games") |

| | GameSpy.com - Top 10 |
| | Atari’s corporate history may be muddled and confusing, but their impact on the gaming industry as a whole is a little more palpable: without Atari, there would be no gaming industry. | | | The arcade division of Atari was transformed into Atari Games Corporation, who proceeded to churn out coin-op games into the late-90’s before eventually being bought out by their former arch-rival, Midway. | | | OK, so maybe that’s a bit of an exaggeration, but Atari is the company that got the big video game business ball rolling. |

| | Salon.com Technology Atari lives! |
| | During the so-called golden age of console gaming, from 1977, the year when the 2600 first appeared, to 1983-84, when the gaming market crashed thanks to a glut of lousy games and bad marketing decisions, Atari was preeminent. | | | The Atari 2600 certainly used to be the hippest console on the block. | | | Isn't the Atari 2600 the archaic console that only plays those games with the rinky-dink graphics and sound and simplistic play, like Combat and that godawful version of Pac-Man? The one with the goofy pseudo wood-grain trim on its casing that started the whole video game console market 24 years ago? |

| | Atari sold 7 million copies of Pacman, but the poor quality of the game turned many people off, and Atari was still stuck with 5 million unsold game cartridges. | | | Atari's VCS game console was several years old by 1982, and its established customer base was being eroded by newer, better systems such as Mattel's Intellivision and Coleco's ColecoVision (especially when those systems started offering adapters that allowed customers to play VCS game cartridges without needing to own Atari consoles). | | | Atari sent their goose away not with the traditional gold watch, but with a pair of cement overshoes. |

| | Several games that used the paddle were included in the original Atari TV Games Joystick, but because the controller couldn't accurately portray the analog control of a paddle they weren't well represented. | | | There will be two types of Atari Paddle TV Games units released this summer: single player and two player. | | | Like the Atari TV Games joystick released two years ago, the Atari Paddle TV Games will mimic the paddles released with the original Atari 2600 system and include several paddle-based classics built into the device. |
