Celebrating Atari’s 50th anniversary!

The brand Atari has been around since 1972, making 2022 it’s 50th year in existence. Atari’s history is long and rich (some may say, sordid) with plenty of owners taking the helm, some for the good of Atari, some not.

The current Atari is a far cry from the Atari from the 70s and early 80s, but we’ll spare you the details on how we feel about the contemporary Atari, after all, this post is to celebrate their 50th anniversary! If however you do want to delve deep into the history of Atari, check out Marty Goldberg & Curt Vendel’s book, Atari Inc. Business Is Fun (read our review here).

For now, let’s all raise a glass to Atari in celebration of its 50th anniversary!
