Huh. The company currently calling itself #Atari just bought Berzerk and Frenzy, along with another ten classic games. I wonder which ones? Presumably, a bunch more old Stern titles from back in the day.
@craiggrannell I miss the real Atari ☹️
@gpowerf I recall when Hasbro bought the rights for $5m in the late 1990s and the early MAME scene realised it could so easily have raised that cash and made the games freeware. Alas. Now some kind of mutant zombie goes RRARRRRR while having Atari’s face stapled to its head.
@gpowerf @craiggrannell I miss the original Atari too. Berzerk was one of the first games I played on Atari. The 2600 I opened on Christmas morning came bundled with Adventure and my parents bought Asteroids and Berserk. I have fond memories of playing that game with my dad.
