zzip Posted October 2 Share Posted October 2 Nolan Bushnell also had another arcade company later: "Sente", another Japanese name also taken from Go. Sente only made a few arcade games, and got folded into Bally/Midway ironically making them a sister company with "Atari Games" now. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roots.genoa Posted October 3 Share Posted October 3 (edited) By the way, I'm surprised JPF hasn't created a topic yet about the fact that Wade Rosen shares his surname with David Rosen, one of SEGA's founders. It could be titled "Atari and SEGA finally embracing they have been the same company all along" or something.

Funny you say that because there is a certain genre of fiction where this has already happened, I wonder which one it is 🤔 https://cyberpunk.fandom.com/wiki/Segotari Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bakasama Posted October 3 Share Posted October 3 The idea that Atari made a dummy company to compete with it self and dominate the arcades is more believable than Atari being Japanese. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roots.genoa Posted October 4 Share Posted October 4 Absolutely. Even though I disagree with most of his hot takes, I find them amusing at least, so I know I won't get pissed off like I am when debating some Norwegian fungal royalty for instance... 🙄 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In before the lock!!! Locks were believed to have been invented in Egypt or Mesopotamia, I read. So it would be pretty nice to see AtariAge finally embracing its Egyptian/Mesopotamian heritage.

So yeah, don't even try going there. 4 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
