I remember (Yahoo? I think) making some really questionable acquisitions before everything fell apart; almost like it was being used a dumpster to pack a bunch of failed startups into.

Based on nothing but gut, this sounds like a deal to pay out to the investors in Wonder with Atari cash. The "synergies" will never pan out, technologies will never be combined.

There is no Atari cash, there is no Atari, just few dudes with legal rights to the brand and borderline scam (lying multiple times) crowdfunded half a laptop pretending to be a console with no games.
