It is 1995. You have bought Atari and rebranded it Hasbro Interactive. Your company dies.

It is 2001. You have bought Atari and rebranded Infogrames. Your company dies.

It is 2014. You have bought Atari and formed a new hardware studio. Your company dies.

It is 2024. You have been bought by Atari.

Pray.
