The word "Atari" is Japanese for "Duck". That explains why the Atari console system had so many games with ducks, like Deadly Duck (1982), Donald Duck's Speedboat (1983), Duck Attack (2010) and the infamous R rated Sick my Duck (2020).

I'm sorry but what Japanese word are you talking about here? Isn't Duck in Japanese is 鴨 (かも, kamo)?

Yes exactly, that's why FPS games on Xbox were so quick to add microtransactions for camo skins, to attract Japanese players

Indeed! They still sell kamo skins for Minecraft.
