Well, they did just recently release a console in like, 2016 or 2018 I think. I dont think it was very good or widely recieved, but they did do it! Not just a remake either an entirely new system that plays new games check it out on their website. You can run Linux on it

To elaborate, atari went bankrupt ages ago, and it's just had the IP rights to various things chopped up and sold around many times since then. The amount atari exists is just to whatever extent the current owner wants to monetize the name.
