Somehow, playing an Atari game on an Ouya controller triggers some kind of cognitive dissonance. I don't know whether's it's fitting for Ouya to be downgraded this way, or fitting for post 83 Atari to be associated with that brand. Or both. Someone help me before I explode.

-They took the name Atari from the ancient Japanese strategy game Go. -
Wait a minute. Didn't you say in one of the other Crash Course Games videos that Go is of Chinese origin?
Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

The clones of Pong actually meant that Atari had to innovate to increase their profit. This lead to the rapid advancement of the gaming industry, which was beneficial to the whole society.

My greatest respect for Wozniak comes not from his wizardry (which he certainly have) but his ability to tolerate a-hole such as steve jobs
