Okay, so we have three Atari pages. Now, I would have guessed ahead of time that the division would be that one of these pages was intended for the old Atari and one was for the new Atari (Infogrames). The problem though is that all three have a deck that describes the original company. The "Atari Inc." page seems to have more stuff attached to it, but who knows if it's even done correctly. Anyone want to help sort this out?
Atari
Atari, Inc.
Atari Corporation
Infogrames Entertainment
Atari UK
Combine: Atari
I tried but got lost. "Atari" and "Atarai, Inc." on GB seem to be the same, but were meant to be different companies. Like you mentioned, games are attached to the wrong pages, which makes it even more confusing. TBH a lot of company pages are like this on GB.
Maybe if someone quits their job they can figure this mess out, along with the Konami pages. And "Sony", "Sony Coproration", "SCEA" and so on......
Well I have plenty of old Atari 2600 games and they are all published by Atari, Inc. I do have one that was published in the late eighties that was published by Atari Corporation. The wikipedia page, here, is quite detailed and lists the "different" Ataris and it matches up with my info.
Are you wanting to consolidate most everything into one Atari and list the different versions of Atari in the page or break them all up and keep them separate but correct the info? Either way would seem good but if we keep multiple Ataris, there'll always be someone who isn't proficient with the wiki that'll just add the first one.
Like the Konami problem, tough tits.
I made a thread on this ages ago but I can't seem to find it. Basically, I was saying that Atari went through several distinct stages of existence but the pages don't reflect that. I don't know enogh about Atari to fill those pages in but there definitely needs to be changes made to them.
