Atari classic "Centipede" returns

• Nickerson tells Axios he first connected with Atari after discovering an email in his spam folder from an Atari official who liked his work.
• Atari showed him a list of franchises they had the rights to. He went with “Missile Command” first because he used to be obsessed with it.

As for “Centipede”: “I loved the arcade game and wanted to just play it in the way I remembered it, but add some cool powerups and modern touches to maybe make another generation care about it."
