Atari Age was a magazine distributed to Atari Club members from 1982 until 1984. It was published by The Atari Club, a subsidiary of Atari.[1] The magazine only covered Atari products and events, offering exclusive deals to its readers, and serving as an advertising and merchandise outlet for the company. Atari used the magazine to build brand loyalty, promoting Atari products in a non-objective manner.[2] The magazine was based in Philadelphia.[3]
