Atari returned to the gaming market with Jaguar, the first 64-bit gaming console. Jaguar was praised for its slate of games, including the first console version of the PC game Doom, but criticized for poor controller design. Atari had a hard time attracting third-party game developers, since by then most were exclusively tied to one of the other console makers. This was Atari’s last home console.
