When was the last time Atari made hardware?

  Either the Jaguar CD[0] or Flashback[1], depending on how flexible you are with the "atari made" part. [0] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atari_Jaguar_CD https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atari_Jaguar_CD [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atari_Flashback https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atari_Flashback

    At risk of splitting hairs, Atari Inc and Atari Corp were different companies as well. The 2600 was released by Atari Inc and the Jaguar by Atari Corp.

      Right! I would however guess most people would consider the jaguar (and its expansion) the last hardware product by "Real Atari".
      • hnlmorg 9y ago
        Oh absolutely. I think Atari Corp had some of the same management as Atari Inc too. So I was definitely splitting hairs :)

  This isn't the same company as the one that made the 2600. In fact the Atari trademark has been held by so many different companies over the years that it probably makes more sense at this point to class new hardware as "Atari branded" rather than "Atari".

    Infogrames, to be exact. They of Alone in the Dark and... that's the only game I can come up with at the moment.
    • hnlmorg 9y ago
      The thing with Infogrames is a lot of their catalogue is down to publishing and buyouts (like the Unreal Tournament franchise) rather than developed in house. But one of their own games I do own and still occasionally enjoy is Wacky Races on the Dreamcast.
