UPDATE: Doug Dabney - employee #3 at Atari - has died, his son Scott reports. Dabney's brother Ted co-founded engineering company Syzygy back in in 1972 with Nolan Bushnell, the company that would soon become Atari.
This corrects earlier reports of industry icon Nolan Bushnell announcing the death of long-time business partner Ted Dabney - the man with whom he co-founded Atari.
Kelly Bianucci will report to Atari chairman and CEO Wade Rosen in new company role.
Atari has revealed a pack of Namco classics that fans will likely love.
This looks like a fun fusion that collectors and Retro fans may enjoy.
I love how there are matching ghost colors for the controllers. I hope they add a Purple "Sue" controller for the inevitable Ms PacMan double feature cart they are working on. It would seem a crime not to.
That shit looks amazing. If I ever had a "retro room" in my house, this would be 100% needed. The best Atari 2600 design I've ever seen imo, besides the original of course lol
It looks cool, kind of ironic though considering that the port of Pacman for Atari 2600 is notoriously bad.
Wow so sad may he R.I.P :(.
The Atari Lynx was the very first games console I played on. My dad used to let us play it on long car journeys.
RIP
Hold up, it may be a mistake. We'll have to wait before final confirmation...
