What is atari with pacman?

Atari is a video game company that originally launched in 1972. It's known for creating some of the earliest and most iconic video games in history, such as Pong, Asteroids, and Centipede. In 1982, Atari released a version of the hugely popular arcade game Pac-Man for its Atari 2600 console.

At the time of its release, Atari's version of Pac-Man was considered a major disappointment. The game's graphics were significantly inferior to the arcade version, and the gameplay lacked the same smoothness and level of challenge.

Despite the poor critical reception, Atari's Pac-Man went on to become one of the best-selling games for the Atari 2600 console, with more than 7 million copies sold. The game's popularity was largely due to the huge popularity of the Pac-Man arcade game at the time, as well as the success of the Atari 2600 console itself.

Today, Atari is still a major player in the video game industry, having released a number of successful and critically acclaimed games over the years. Pac-Man, too, remains an iconic and beloved classic of the gaming world, with dozens of sequels, spin-offs, and adaptations released over the decades.
