Atari, Ray Kassar and Warner

 TCW Podcast Episode 046 - Atari, Ray Kassar and Warner   We continue on to part three of our four part look into Atari.  We delve into Atari under the leadership of Ray Kassar.  It becomes apparent that while Ray did make mistakes the leadup to the fall of Atari cannot be entirely placed at his feet.  We also explore the role of Warner in the direction Atari took and the difficult decision on whether to concentrate on home console or PC.  We also delve into the Arcade side of things and how, while successful, they were not without their growing problems.    Atari Pinball: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aqcDFAphThY   Space Invaders Atari 2600: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=opru6qPsPa4   Atari Arcade Battlezone: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ymrYkbEbnEQ   Atari 400 and 800: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-InWwzs8Em0   Asteroids Arcade: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WYSupJ5r2zo   New episodes on the 1st and 15th of every month!   TCW Email: [email protected]  Twitter: @tcwpodcast Alex's Blog: http://videogamehistorian.wordpress.com   Intro Music: Josh Woodward - Airplane Mode -  Music - "Airplane Mode" by Josh Woodward.
