E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial for Atari.

It was so bad it actually caused Atari to go bankrupt.

Millions of cartridges are actually buried in the desert.

A good friend of mine literally was the last person to leave the office and turned off the lights. He took me out to the desert where the cartridges are buried.

“E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial for Atari.

And in follow-up to my own post, the failure of Atari is credited with causing the 1980s collapse of the tech industry.

Those have to be worth money by now. What broke them? The license fee to the studio?
