Whoa there's a name I haven't seen in quite some time! I have absolutely no idea. I think someone else asked about him (or her? I dunno) a while back and nobody seemed to know. Maybe life happened and DQ decided to spend a lot less time on the net.
I don't think he's talkjng about the same Atari you're thinking of. While the Atari 2600 had an 8-bit chip, it was restricted to 5, but in practice was 4. There are articles that can explain it better than me. Atari did have a line of true 8-bit computers and even a failed console with the 5200. The games were honestly pretty trash on all of them.
SNES was the peak of "oldschool" consoles, and sixth gen was the last of traditional consoles as we knew them. Everything newer is an idiot box.

They also released a the XEGS a year later which was basically a 8-bit computer in a console form.
