Atari Drops GameCube Support For Two Titles

dade writes "Atari has dumped on Nintendo, making it the third company to do so in recent weeks. However, because the GameCube is a vehicle for first-party games, Nintendo's bottom line isn't affected. This article at switchbox asks if such a situation can last." Some good points are raised. While Nintendo is ostensibly content to hide in its niche market, it would seem to make sense that it would want to corner more of the gaming market if possible, especially given their history.

    Atari 2003 is Atari in name only. In the mid-90s when Atari went bankrupt all of it's assets were sold off, including the right to the corporate name. Atari today and Atari in 1978 have nothing in common but their name.
