Atari *is* dead. The current company using the name is not Atari at all. It's like the new Delorean company making that EV, it isn't Delorean. It's just some other company that bought the name.
It doesn't help when the original Atari pretty much died years and years ago and then another company Infrogrames or however it was spelled changed its name to Atari despite not having anything to do with Atari. Its any wonder why there's so much misinformation.
The Atari that hold a much bigger footprint in the industry is dead, as a publisher they're still around.
" As of 2022, the current Atari is pursuing several lines of business outside of video gaming, including cryptocurrency[15][16] and video-game themed hotels.[17] "
It might not even publish games anymore but that's the last I heard about them so I guess it's not even a videogame company anymore.
Atari might not be dead but it's not even part of the gaming conversation anymore. Getting back onto the big stage could happen if they started to attend E3 while others are no longer showing up. It's easier said than done, especially financially.
