I know. The good classics don't seem to be in short supply. And thank you.

Hmmm.... Is that why those particular games are pretty common?

This is my current collection of classic games. I only started collecting Atari games recently, but I might be off to a good start. My Atari 2600 jr. and accessories: Super Nintendo wireless controller These are great controllers. Atari 2600 games I don't know how I ended up with two copies of Combat, but I'm guessing it's not hard to end up with multiple copies of common games. The Tele-Games edition of Asteroids was an interesting find. For a game with millions of copies supposedly in a landfill, it is incredibly easy to find. If this "game" didn't come with my Atari, it would be in the trash can by now. Ah, Frogger. This version is one of my favorites. So far, Yar's Revenge was the only Atari 2600 game I bought new in its box as it is my favorite Atari game. The comic does an excellent job at explaining the story. That's my classic game collection for now, but this collection is likely to grow as time goes on.

Best bet would be one that still works.

Yeah. They probably dumped a lot of games in the landfill, like the one they pulled from their lineup. Some E.T. carts are probably there, but it is still doubtful that a lot of E.T. carts are in a landfill when it is very easy to find. Besides, what would a game sitting in a landfill for 30 years be worth?

That is interesting. I guess it means it doesn't take long for something to become a legend. Of course, Atari isn't helping matters by not keeping their stories straight.

Interesting article. It'll be interesting to see what they will find, if anything, but are the people involved in this dig aware that E.T. is not exactly a hard to find game?
