Atari

Originally founded in 1972, Atari began as a company that made arcade games, home video game consoles, and computers. The brand was extremely popular in the 1970s and 1980s, producing games like Pong and consoles like the Atari 2600. The company collapsed in 1983 due to the video game crash, and the company sold its computer and game console divisions to Jack Tramiel, who split the company into Atari Games and Atari Corporation.

Since then, Atari has changed hands several times, eventually merging with IESA in 2008 and filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in 2013. But the company has come out with a new corporate strategy, released new products and software, developed hotels, and released a new console called the Atari VCS.
