I could have sworn Atari was bankrupt. Where’d they get the money to acquire anything?

Bankruptcy is intended to be (though is not often in actuality) a temporary restructuring period. A lot of companies just end up liquidating while under bankruptcy proceedings, but Atari emerged from Chapter 11 in 2014 after a year of restructuring and selling off IPs to pay their bills. Now they’re doing a bunch of stuff, including casinos and hotels.

On one hand, that’s weird AF. On the other, I would definitely stay at (and probably steal towels from) the Hotel Atari.

(Half of bankruptcy is restructuring/planning while the other half is liquidation. Either way, the goal is to have a clean-ish start in debt terms.)
