Atari is opening eight video game hotels across the U.S.
- TeaDude 7y agoI was going to ask where they were going to get all the money to fund this considering they're having trouble paying people for much smaller scale projects such as the Ataribox but then I realized the same thing the executives realized a long time ago. They have a name and can abuse it. Either that or it's another classic Atari "unrealistic at best" announcement. The pre-emptive design is cool though.
- finphil 7y agoI hope they get quality partners to make this project sustainable.
- JohnFen 7y agoAtari doesn't really exist. It's just a brand name now.
- paulie_a 7y agoHopefully they have gambling
- weare138 7y agoI think that's the plan. Apparently that's Atari's new business model: On January 21, 2013, the four related companies Atari, Atari Interactive, Humongous, and California US Holdings filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York.[48] All three Ataris emerged from bankruptcy one year later and the entering of the social casino gaming industry with Atari Casino.[49] Frederic Chesnais, who now heads all three companies, stated that their entire operations consist of a staff of 10 people.[50] On June 22, 2014, Atari announced a new corporate strategy that would include a focus on "new audiences", specifically "LGBT, social casinos, real-money gambling, and YouTube". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atari#Infogrames/Atari,_SA_(2001%E2%80%93present) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atari#Infogrames/Atari,_SA_(20...
