Will Any Other Video Game Companies Join the "Classic Edition" Craze?

Nintendo's classic NES and SNES systems are currently very popular, and, as a side note, I am certain that a classic edition of the N64 is practically inevitable, so I wonder if any other old video game manufacturers will attempt to join the craze for releasing "classic editions" of their old consoles.
The two most obvious companies who might participate are Sega and Atari, as they produced a number of consoles with many awesome and memorable games, but Sega no longer manufactures hardware and Atari, while still in existence, is now merely a shell of its former glorious self. The first Playstation is unlikely to have a classic edition, as it used optical discs, rather than ROM cartridges, which I imagine are more difficult to emulate.
What does everyone else say about this? Will any other video game companies join the "classic edition" craze?

Sega classic already exists, as does atari flashback.
You can still find them in stores, so either they weren't recieved well or more likely people didn't know that they exist.

I once played Asteroids for so long that I had to stop playing.
It was on the easiest difficulty, which I assumed would ramp the longer you played it.
It didn't.
