Atari, Inc. was an American video game developer and home computer company founded in 1972 by Nolan Bushnell and Ted Dabney. Atari was a key player in the formation of the video arcade and video game industry. Based primarily around the Sunnyvale, California, area in the center of Silicon Valley, the company was initially formed to develop arcade games, launching with Pong in 1972. As computer technology matured with low-cost integrated circuits, Atari ventured into the consumer market, first with dedicated home versions of Pong and other arcade successes around 1975, and into programmable consoles using game cartridges with the Atari Video Computer System (Atari VCS or later branded as the Atari 2600) in 1977. To bring the Atari VCS to market, Bushnell sold Atari to Warner Communications in 1976. In 1978, Warner brought in Ray Kassar to help run the company, but over the next few years, gave Kassar more of a leadership role in the company. Bushnell was fired in 1978, with Kassar named CEO in 1979. From 1978 through 1982, Atari continued to expand at a great pace and was the leading company in the growing video game industry. Its arcade games such as Asteroids helped to usher in a golden age of arcade games from 1979 to 1983, while the arcade conversion of Taito's Space Invaders for the VCS became the console's system seller and killer application. Atari's success brought new console manufacturers to the market including Mattel Electronics and Coleco, as well as the creation of third-party developers such as Activision and Imagic. Facing new competition heading into 1982, Atari made a number of poor decisions to try to maintain their leadership position. These decisions resulted in overproduction of units and games that did not meet sales expectations and eroded consumer confidence in Atari. Atari had also ventured into the home computer market with their first 8-bit computers, but their products did not fare as well as their competitors'. The once-profitable Atari began a string of quarters of losses throughout 1983, with the company losing more than US$530 million over 1983. Kassar resigned as CEO in mid-1983 amid mounting losses and was replaced by James J. Morgan who instituted a number of cost-cutting procedures to turn Atari around, including a large number of layoffs. However, Atari's financial hardships had already reverberated through the industry, leading to the 1983 video game crash that devastated the video game market in the United States. Warner Communications sold the home console and computer division of Atari to Jack Tramiel in July 1984, who then renamed his company Atari Corporation. Atari, Inc. was renamed Atari Games, Inc. after the sale. In 1985, Warner formed a new corporation jointly with Namco, AT Games, Inc., which acquired the coin-operated assets of Atari Games, Inc. AT Games was subsequently renamed Atari Games Corporation. Atari Games, Inc. was then renamed Atari Holdings, Inc. and remained a non-operating subsidiary of Warner Communications and its successor, Time Warner, before being merged back into the parent company in 1992.

Später haben verschiedene Firmen den Markennamen Atari genutzt, sowohl für Spiele als auch für Hardware. Das Unternehmen GT Interactive benannte sich im Jahr 2003 in Atari, Inc. um. Das ursprüngliche Unternehmen war ein Pionier der Computerspielindustrie. Pong war das erste weltweit populäre Computerspiel. Erfolg hatte Atari mit dem Atari 2600 (seit 1977), einer Spielkonsole, sowie später mit Heimcomputern. Spätestens 1983 kam das Geschäft mit Konsolen in starke Konkurrenz mit Computern, auf denen man Software von Diskette laufen lassen konnte. Die Abteilungen für Spielcomputer und Konsolen wurden 1984 unter dem Namen Atari Corp. an Jack Tramiel verkauft. Nachdem Computer wie der Atari ST nur mäßig erfolgreich waren, verkauften Tramiel und seine Familie das Unternehmen. Nach verschiedenen Eigentümern ging die Marke Atari 2003 an den französischen Spiele-Produzenten Infogrames über. Der Arcade-Zweig, Atari Games, gehörte zu Warner und später TIME Warner. Man produzierte unter anderem Konsolen-Cartridges für Nintendo. 1996 wurde Atari Games verkauft; dieser Käufer wiederum musste 2003 aufgeben, so dass 2009 die verbleibende Holding wieder kurzfristig an TIME Warner zurückkamen. Seit 2013 gibt es diesen Atari-Zweig auch rechtlich nicht mehr.
