Although I have infinite gratitude in my heart for what Mr. Bushnell created for us all, I really have no desire to meet the man as he is today. He seems to have taken up the mantle of one who looks back on his creations and laments all while uttering, "my God what have I done?" It's a position that I can not understand no matter how many angles I approach it from.
His opinions on the current state of the industry sadden me, and his most recent business ventures make me laugh. Nolan Bushnell is better remembered than met.

I feel like he doesn't get enough create, if someone to ask me to name ten people when I think of the video game industry his name wouldn't even come to mind and that's sad.
I think the name Nolan Bushnell means more to gamers that were alive and gaming in the Atari/ChuckECheese heyday like myself.
I remember buying the game "Secret Quest" (brand new mind you) because it had his picture on it touting his involvment (ended up just being a producer/designer IIRC).
Of course, the newer generation of gamers would probably also have the same "what do I care" attitude if someone mention Roberta Williams

Bushnell is a twat and couldn't be further removed from gaming culture. That would be idiotic.
Also Screw Attack has a convention now?

On one hand, he made Atari.
On the other, he made Chuck E. Cheese.
I am very confused on how I am supposed to feel about Nolan Bushnell, considering one of his creations birthed my old local arcade and the other killed it. Some kind of mixture of joy and pure rage.
