Atari under Rosen has been on a surprising upswing. It's no longer just Infogrames in a skin suit. It's a fine line to ride for Atari; they don't have the budgets to compete at the level of prestige a name that storied should command, but also they can't just rerelease the old games since not that many people still into video games are THAT nostalgic for Atari.
Atari 50 was them charting a course by looking at the past, and I think the lesson Atari 50 teaches is clear: keep everything simple, gameplay design is king.
