Reviewtechusa tells us why Sega isn't entering the console market.

We know Atari isn't Atari anymore.

Perhaps, like I miss Tonka sometimes when discussing sms.

[KitsuneNight]

Atari is LONG dead. What was left of the old Atari closed shop in 2003.

[Semmie]

Do you remember this game on C 64 Semmie, it was fun.




Exactly. But Sega is more like Atari than Nintendo though. Nintendo is a very rich corporation still making consoles. Sega like Atari, is just a name. The logo is worth more than their vg profits as they are sub divisions of another company.

the games i had were black hawk and frogger. and some boxing gamei dont know the name of anymore
.
jumpman junior LOL later oni learned how to copy games on a casette without buying them. man that jumpman junior is like a overactive person who took 9 xtc pills. i loved the gameat that time tho. but i was a shmups fan mainly

I understand that. Which is why I brought up Tonka and SMS...nevermind.

I believe the Co-CEO of old Atari is the CEO of Atari US. Or was. Let's get real, Atari wasn't Atari when people left to form Activision way back when, which is also now owned by a French company like Atari was before Atari US recently split from them.

Ah, cool Semmie.

it was a bit of an opaque joke ( hasbro bought tonka and now owns the western rights to the gobots but not the actual molds and toys themselves those belong to bandai under machine robo )

[Vector2013]

Okay let's just do this. "It's actually Atari US from Atari France split from Infogrames from Hasbro from Midway from Warner from the split Atari Computer and Atari VG from original Atari."

I believe the 80s TF have that ownership issue too (Hasbro/Bandai)

[KitsuneNight]

^that just jetfire
he is a repainted macross\robotech veritech\valkyrie ( who are still damn good toys even now ) and bandai still owns the molds to those >>http://www.tfu.info/1985/Autobot/Jetfire/jetfire.htm

classics jetfire is closest to his 85 sculpt but a lot smaller http://www.tfu.info/2006/Autobot/Cla...re/jetfire.htm

[Vector2013]

Okay Hasbro/Diaclone/Bandai.

[KitsuneNight]

diaclone was the orginal tf series where most toys come from the diaclones were presented as mechs with pilots ( which is why so many diaclone toys have cockpits )
diaclone\diacrone\diakron are from takara who is a hasbro partner

what ? yes im a transformers fan how did you guess ?

[old man]

Infogrames isn't atari and sammy isn't sega, or are they?


@Sheath: this new avatar was a great idea.

[KitsuneNight]

Infogrames isn't atari and sammy isn't sega, or are they?


@Sheath: this new avatar was a great idea.

yes they are
infogrames chanched their name to atari inc in 2003

and sega is a division of segasammy holdings inc

I know. I had the g1 dinobots but both the hasbro and the ones before those, the diaclone ones had pilot flips.

[Vector2013]

Atari US is it's own parent company now, Atari France still might be with Infogrames but Atari US isn't.
