I didn't even think Atari was still around. Should be interesting though.

I'm down if they adopt an anti-Nintendo strategy and make more than 5 of these available.

Atari would be making a huge mistake if they did that and practically killing it before it would have a chance to get off the ground.
IMO with A new console they'd be best off to flood the market with it to get it in as many homes as possible.
