Once it comes in the mail I'll snag a few pics of it for you to see.  Then I'll bring my sack to your house to fondle...

I’m being serious. What is the crux of this design? Leaving aside that Atari sucks overall times a million. Is it made to secretly insult everyone who buys it?

Is this official? If not then the trade mark symbol is next stuff level cluelessness.

あたり or 辺り isn’t written as アタリ as a logo ever as far as I know. It’s a Japanese word. Like I said, just kinda looking for someone to explain why isn’t just PCE Works level jankery.

I don't know what you really meant, but the company's name is indeed written as アタリ in Japan. I don't know whether that's in the official logo in Japan though. And yes, Atari IS a Japanese word, as it was intentional to use Iga (Go) terms (Atari is like "Check" in chess) as their company name, and so is their subsidiary Tengen (the dead centre position of an Iga board).

I don't know how legitimate the bag is, but simply googling it says it's at least officially licensed everywhere.
