Topic: Atari Set to Launch Cryptocurrency Casino Featuring Atari-themed Games and NFTs (Read 302 times)
April 15, 2021, 01:35:03 PM
Everything I read here sounds really interesting. I didn't have any idea that this was a thing. Honestly, can't wait to see what kind of a platform they'll come up with. I also agree with most people that Atari will probably introduce something unique and fun, possibly something ground-breaking. Loved pacman, so I'd love to see it reinvented for online gambling.

Atari, the legendary entertainment company behind Pacman, has announced plans to launch a cryptocurrency casino with new partner Decentral Games.
The Atari Casino will be built in a virtual gaming district in the Ethereum-based Decentraland metaverse. The gaming district, known as ‘Vegas City’ will be host to Atari Casino on an initial two-year deal starting in May of 2021.
The virtual Atari Casino will feature Atari-themed games and Atari non-fungible Tokens (NFTs). Players will be able to play games using MANA, DAI, and ATRI (Atari) tokens. Prizes will be offered in Decentral Games’ native token $DG.
Players who earn $DG will be able to use the tokens to get involved in the running and management of the casino.

This is interesting !
There are a lot of Pac-Man fans. People are actually spending thousands of dollars on the old Pac-Man machines and this game cum gambling platform would be instantly popular but I do think they should add more to it ofcourse.
They have to thoroughly investigate on the crypto gambling sites and they can also team up with other casinos which are already good in the game which would prove to be beneficial for them for the long term.
I do think that this would give a different edge to gambling and they can at the same time take this opportunity to add even more games. The completion is hard! They have to make sure to stand out, which they already do but right now they have to also please a wide spectrum of audience otherwise it won't work since we are in the middle of the pandemic and it is always hard for big businesses to keep running.

It seems Atari has procured this gambling license for a record 7.5 million dollars in the last financial period.

So I assume that they won't be planning a very simple crypto casino here considering the amount of licensing fees they have paid. It's definitely good to see known brands are jumping into the crypto gambling bandwagon. Hopefully such known entrants will increase the overall reputation of this market.
Seriously they have spend huge amount as license fees but they might not be planning a simple casino because they have deep pockets being the favourite gaming house for every 90's kid.We all have played their games and still remember them and now following the crypto gambling trend they are also entering this market with NFT announcement as additional package.It would be really interesting to watch which games they have included in the site and what crypto pairs they are allowing to use to deposit.They can provide tough competition to other casinos in the market if they develop user friendly interface and provide some unique gambling experience. https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2020/08/13/2077631/0/en/Annual-Financial-Results-2019-2020-Atari-delivers-another-financial-year-of-profitable-growth.html

If Atari could just provide an NFT blockchain based games instead of launching another cryptocurrency based casino, it would be much better. Similar from what others have previously pointed, crypto industry currently have tons of successful casino games and I don't think adding another would significantly gain traction on their part.
I mean they are known for creating successful games from before, wouldn't be a good idea to just stick from creating NFT based games that let other people earn from simply playing them? NFT based games owned by them could definitely gain more traction from the masses I think.

It is obviously good news that company as big as Atari joins crypto gambling business. Although I feel like Atari tries any business to make money in their last years (considering their failed video game console) Atari NFTs will be the most interesting ones with that casino for sure.
Totally agreed on this point because We need Big established company to entrust this market and having Atari now on the league will surely a Best interest not only for gamblers but also for crypto community and the 90's people.

I'm an Atari Player from my Teen, and I'm sure this plan will be a Big hit as well ..
Being one of the most popular from the past and they handled their name up to now , So Looking forward in trying this one..
From a Typical Video game from childhood and now a gambling Game in mature time
It's a hard to predict a success story or a failure for this coming casino, there are many casinos and gambling game providers already settled in the place. Atari has to offer a really game changing experience to attract gamblers, otherwise they will stay on their usual platforms they know and they trust, and where they have bonuses from their seniority. It's a big challenge for Atari I think. Being one of the most popular from the past and they handled their name up to now , So Looking forward in trying this one..

I haven't heard the news about Atari for a very long time, because it's been a long time since I played Atari either. And now suddenly there is news
that Atari will launch a crypto casino, this is very good news for the crypto world. With Atari's big name as an old game company, it can attract
the interest of many game fans who really like gambling. The owner of Atari saw a great opportunity in the crypto world, finally intending to launch
a crypto casino. Hopefully this can make more and more people get to know about cryptocurrency.

I didnt know they were still alive! I havent heard anything about them in years.
It makes sense to try and modernise by moving into a crypto casino.
How many 90's and 00's kids will know Atari?
Atari, the legendary entertainment company behind Pacman,
huh ? pacman ? i thought they became famous because of the legendary game space invaders 
and the pacman was popularly known because of namco . Players who earn $DG will be able to use the tokens to get involved in the running and management of the casino.
cool . does it mean that we can get the experience of running this casino ? thats new to me and they are too kind to allow this service , for sure different types of people ( gamer , non gamer , non gambler , gambler ) that are going to try this . itl also be better if they will add esports along with that casino because it was related to video games Pac Man was 1980, Space Invaders was 1978! accourding to: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_age_of_arcade_video_games
Oh man I spend hours and hours and hours at Space Invaders and Pac Man on those
table arcades.

Atari, the legendary entertainment company behind Pacman, has announced plans to launch a cryptocurrency casino with new partner Decentral Games.
Yeah, looks good and they must have some new games under their sleeves which would be refreshing to play and from what I can read in the article, we can play with DAI, MANA and ATRI tokens which although looks limited but maybe they will accept other coins as well.Players who earn $DG will be able to use the tokens to get involved in the running and management of the casino.
You have copied this from the article as it is, I was wondering how this will actually work. Does it mean something like how we do at betfury right now? Wager and earn some coins which then we can use and earn passive income. Looks very interesting and they are expecting $150m revenue within the first year which actually might come true given how big the crypto industry right now is. 
March 11, 2021, 08:41:46 AM
This is definitely very exciting news as this is a tech company that is going to try its bid in the gambling industry using digital space. This is a respectable gaming company that has existed for such a long time now that it has the reputation to attract big companies to cooperate with it for them to be able to launch the cryptocurrency casino. This is a new phase in the gambling industry and we might see more companies investing in cryptocurrency because of this.
March 11, 2021, 07:14:29 AM
While the idea is interesting, it seems that they have choosen the wrong chain. Ehtereum is still a project in construction - yes even if it has been around for such a long time - they just seem unable to get the PoS network in place and have wasted too much valuable time, allowing things such as the Binnace Chain.
I think that Atari may be better served, along with all users, if they use their resources to build a more effective chain.

I could not find an actual link to sign up for this though,,, can anybody help? Or must I actually sign up to decentraland first and use that? I could not figure out from reading the press release actually:)
Atari NFTs sound like something I do not mind spending a few dollars on. Anyone say binance nft it is over $100

It is definitely going to be interesting and it is going to be worth a look at least, if they actually concentrate on their product and the games they offer I do not see how they will not be successful, can you imagine the kind of games they can release with the use of their intellectual properties like pacman? If they do it right then they could definitely hit a home run with this, the only thing they need to watch for are the costs as it takes some time for a casino to become successful. https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2020/08/13/2077631/0/en/Annual-Financial-Results-2019-2020-Atari-delivers-another-financial-year-of-profitable-growth.html

NFTs are pretty hot right now and you can also purchase digital collectibles if you're a big Atari fan. It will make you nostalgic if you look through the cards they have in the marketplace, most of them have the old school styles. It may be just a running fad that will possibly die soon, seeing companies like these brings a lot of positive influence.
I'm hoping to see more large gaming industries adopting blockchain and NFTs as well, this could be very big for the gaming industry especially since the gaming industry has been booming recently even amidst the pandemic.

Yupp NFTs are the one that is making a good hype in this bullrun. Some artist had already tried to create their own and sell for auction. atari could really try this after all they are pretty much an old-school company in the world of gaming.
There are some doubts about atari however they did run an ICO before which turns out that the project wasn't materialized. Some users are already calling them scam because of it and now they are up to release atari casino and tokens. It's best to just wait untill the project is released.

So the bigger the gambler, the bigger the controlling interest in the Casino? A gambler with deep pockets could (in theory at least) wrest control of the Casino from its creators and then steer the Casino towards a rival's brand name (or, just park the casino and point it to their own brand).
I somehow can't see that happening.
I somehow can't see that happening.
But why not? It is not different from governance of tokens now,,, especially in staking tokens. The bigger your stake the more votes you have when it comes to governance decisions. Maybe ultimately a casino has a power to say how it runs the mechanics but ultimately investors can have a voice in choosing the political direction:)

That is pretty awesome news, but I really can't see how exactly this will become mainstream.
Crypto gamblers operate under a particular niche of convenience, anonymity, and liquidity. With a completely separate NFT as a medium of exchange, as well as a not very accessible game mode, this will probably just end up being a fad that will quickly fade into obscurity.
But this does signal once again the mainstream adoption of crypto - that can't be disputed.

is there any further explanation on this part? March 09, 2021, 05:42:12 PM
Atari, the legendary entertainment company behind Pacman,
At first glance I thought it's referring to Manny Pacquiao but I realize it's the game itself which is the Pacman that I have played when I was a kind when family computer ( if that's what its called) was still very popular, yeah, the word "ATARI" I still remember.
Well, I think this is a good news that they are entering in the crypto space, should help them improve as this market is getting bigger and players will benefit on that success.
March 09, 2021, 05:36:59 PM
Way to establish their name in a manner where they don't need to compete against the giants in the gaming industry. As of the moment, the only anchor they have with society is the fact that they made Pacman, and some other videogames in the past, but hopefully with this new project they have, they get to build their name and pioneer the crypto gaming industry.
March 09, 2021, 05:02:31 AM
Players who earn $DG will be able to use the tokens to get involved in the running and management of the casino.
I think that point needs to be expanded upon - How?
Would users be invited onto an advisory board? As I theorised three posts earlier, a user (or even a group - declared, or not apparent) could exert influence if they acquired enough $DG.
How would you know if one user was representing others who'd funneled their funds to that one (Shill??) user?
March 09, 2021, 04:11:17 AM
I enjoyed my childhood playing their games, and if they still live up to the tastes of the generation they used to cater in the 90s, then perhaps their gambling venture would surely be a hit. I'm pretty sure that a lot of gamblers would like to try this casino not to fill their gambling needs but to rather see whether it would relive some nostalgia that they are feeling considering that it's Atari that owns these games.
On another side, I see that companies are already seeing that the crypto gambling community can be one of the most profitable aspects of cryptocurrencies and not just trading.
They would have safeguards and clauses on the ToS to ensure that that's not gonna happen, for sure.

That is a pretty bold statement that players can get involved in the management, but I think that there is something deeper in play with that statement because if they were to do so then as @Timelord2067 says, a big player can destroy the casino with enough money.

We all have played their games,all of my age who were kids during late 80s and early 90s and I only have beautiful memories from their games.This is a great move from them but I don't like the fact that they are using tokens,better to start in full with all the major cryptos accepted and this would be a hit.
I see it quite the same way. I loved the Atari games back then and still play them now and then in emulators, sometimes with friends over a few beers, still incredibly fun. However, I am very critical of the introduction of a token. I would rather see well-known coins like BTC, ETH and ADA supported here. They can sill implement the whole NFT thing, there are also certainly enough people who will then collect purely for nostalgic reasons, but I wouldn't use a custom token as a payment-requirement at all.

I believe that Atari's move into the cryptocurrency gambling industry will give a huge boost to the development of both the company and the entire gaming entertainment industry. The year 2021 showed that people are willing to pay huge money for exclusive things in the form of NFT tokens. Atari caught this trend at the right time and I am sure that their success is waiting for them.
March 09, 2021, 12:03:26 AM
It is good news for the gambling industry because Atari is an old games company that still exists for a long time ago. So it can attract more big companies to cooperate with the other projects and launch their cryptocurrency casino, and if that can happen from this year, we will see a new face of crypto gambling games. Perhaps, that can bring a new experience for players out there who doesn't know much about crypto, so they can search for how to use the crypto and how to play on the gambling site. Cryptocurrency worlds need more good news like that to grow more than what we see.

That is a lot of money for a gambling license. I hope that despite the chances that they are going to be a different casino, I hope that they won't stray too far because people might be alienated when they replaced a lot of the classics that you see in a casino. With more NFTs coming in the market, it will only get harder for us to find the right one to buy. https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2020/08/13/2077631/0/en/Annual-Financial-Results-2019-2020-Atari-delivers-another-financial-year-of-profitable-growth.html

This is nice considering that NFTs are the current talk of the town and Atari going to join in is a big thing especially for their fans and I am pretty sure that their NFTs are going to be exploding in popularity. Their casino operation though is a little bit confusing for me but hey, what works for them am I right?

Atari, the legendary entertainment company behind Pacman, has announced plans to launch a cryptocurrency casino with new partner Decentral Games.
The Atari Casino will be built in a virtual gaming district in the Ethereum-based Decentraland metaverse. The gaming district, known as ‘Vegas City’ will be host to Atari Casino on an initial two-year deal starting in May of 2021.
The virtual Atari Casino will feature Atari-themed games and Atari non-fungible Tokens (NFTs). Players will be able to play games using MANA, DAI, and ATRI (Atari) tokens. Prizes will be offered in Decentral Games’ native token $DG.
Players who earn $DG will be able to use the tokens to get involved in the running and management of the casino.
