Atari is a video game brand, originally founded as Atari, Inc. in 1972 by Nolan Bushnell and Ted Dabney. Their pioneering work in arcade games, home consoles, and home computers saw them rise and fall throughout the 70s, 80s, and 90s. Despite decades of challenges, bankruptcy and corporate changeovers, Atari’s legacy still reigns supreme.
