Diggers begin quest to unearth Atari's E.T. games and...succeed... UPDATED!

Silly collectards paying big monies for otherwise worthless games just because they were once thrown away.

This is the dumbest shit. Like its a known fact that Atari buried a bunch of games in a landfill. The myth was that it was only E.T. carts that were buried. Also i heard there are tons of these that the city has yet to put up yet. So those people who spent over $1k to get one are going to see that later on more copies are going to go up for less money.

Pat the Nes Punk did a podcast on this. Apparently their are a bunch more going up on ebay and this was just the first round. Not to mention they could go digup more if the really wanted too. People are losing their shit over video games in general. When will it end.

I would love to see a video game themed beanie baby made, just to drive home how ludicrous the bubble around the video game "market" is right now.

The dug up Atari E.T carts apparently sold for up to $1500 on eBay.

I guess you could say one mans trash is another mans treasure
