Pulled from GamesInsdusty.biz "Substantial" doubt over Atari's future as profits plunge-- "Publisher continues cost-saving moves as HSBC refuses to extend further credit Atari Inc, the US division of French publisher Infogrames, has confirmed that the company's ability to continue as a going concern is now in question after its third quarter results slid into the red. The firm's results for the quarter ended December 31st revealed sales down to $100.8 million from a figure of $156.4 million a year previously, while profits collapsed into a net loss of $4.8 million, from a profit of $19.6 million in the previous year. The figures are a slight improvement over the rest of the financial year to date; over the past nine months, Atari's sales have fallen more than 50 per cent year on year to just $163.4 million (down from $332.5 million), and the firm is trailing a nine-month loss of $62.8 million compared with a nine-month profit of $14.8 million in the last three quarters of calendar 2004. Even more troubling for the company than its losses, however, is its precarious financial situation - with the company currently in default on a variety of covenants related to its credit facility with HSBC, which is currently refusing to extend further credit to the struggling publisher. Atari is now exploring the various measures available to it to stay in business, including moving to a new credit facility, the sale of various intellectual property rights and the sale or even closure of some of its development studios. The company has also revealed that it's looking into making layoffs and suspending various projects in development in a desperate attempt to control its costs and lower its working capital requirements. In the midst of the crisis, another blow to Atari has come with the departure of the company's Chief Financial Officer, Diane Baker, who has resigned to "pursue a new opportunity" - with no replacement yet being announced. Despite the uncertain future the company faces, chief executive and chairman Bruno Bonnell announced a number of new products along with the firm's Q3 results - namely a new game in the Stuntman franchise for the Xbox 360, a new Alone in the Dark title for the PC, and a return to the classic Battlezone franchise on the PSP. Unsurprisingly, shares in the publisher sank on the news, and were trading down nearly 14 per cent at $0.78 in New York at the time of writing - having dropped almost 30 per cent of their value overnight to open at $0.63, but rallying slightly as the day went on. Atari's stock hasn't traded at over the $1.00 mark since mid-January."

I sent you a PM on the connector cable for the 32x.

I dont think that the stack-up parts are included, but it does include all of the gyros and what not. The asking price is $30.

I am looking for miscellaneous stuff to hang in my rather small game room, such as instruction booklets, poster, and old boxes to games. I know that alot of collectors utulize all of these, but if you have anything lying around that would hang on a wall (that you dont need), please, lemme know! Beery

I have an opportunity to pick up a fully functional, complete R.O.B for the NES. How much should I spend on something like this? I dont really know how "rare" it is. Thanks

Well, I suppose I will crack open the seal, and update this post. Sorry for the misleading statement.

I guess no one wants em?

I usually get alot of time in gaming. My fiancee and I work opposite shifts, so there isn't much to do other than game. I dont play too much else right now other than World of Warcraft. I just cant seem to put it down.

I would love to be in it as well, if there is room!

Hello fellow collectors! I picked up a few (11) CIB Atari games, had two of each of these titles, so I am putting them here if anyone is interested. Just make an offer! I opened them all to take a gander at what was inside-- Haunted House--Game, instruction manual (both in great shape) Defender--Game (picture label), instruction manual (creased and torn a little on top) and Atari Force #1 (great shape) Space Attack--Game (great shape), and manual (creased, but in good shape) Asteroids--Game (picture label), instruction manual, and "The Atari VCS Catalog" (great shape) Breakout--Game (picture label) and instructions (good shape) Beery
