GN 1.0 / 2.0

We learned of this a few months back, but now the plan is in its final steps. In just a few weeks, Namco Bandai is going to wrap up acquisition of Atari’s European branch. That means that Atari in North America will be the only Atari left standing. All sales and marketing staff have now been transferred over to Distribution Partners.

“We believe that DP will become a wholly-owned Namco Bandai games company soon, but this process requires time and we will comment further when we have an anticipated closing date.” - Atari’s UK marketing boss David Miller

Thanks to AusGamer for the heads up!
