It looks like the new company (Atari) will continue the focus of the old (Infogrames), just under a very recognizable name. They just publish games for everybody else's platforms, including PC, PS/2, etc etc etc.
The first BIG hit of the re-named company is "Enter the Matrix."
If any parent had been able to ressurect the old console glory days, it probably would have been Hasbro, but they blew it.
Say what you want to about Microsoft, but X-Box does represent the only North American competition to Nintendo and Sony since the old Atari folded. A little ironic for a whole genre/style of play that was invented in North America in the first place.
