That actually makes me sad. I think it was better left as a mystery... Plus now the AVGN movie is kinda going to look outdated, since the whole storyline is about searching for the lost E.T. cartridges...that are no longer lost.

I thought the AVGN's movie was supposed to have a pretty strong grounding in that specific story so I wonder if he's a bit urked by this news. Though on his website he mentioned he was actually going to be at the dig but had to be at his daughter's birthday.
I think they would have found cartridges of the Atari 2600 E.T. game wherever they had dug in that dump! I mean, if I dig into any dump in the world, within a 20/30 year old layer, I'm sure I'll find dozens of those cartridges :lol: I don't think they found what the legends tells they should have found, i.e. MILLIONS of cartridges, they just found some of them. And I think the timing is perfect for James Rolfe, it will only provide publicity 8-)
I used to own an Atari 2600 in my younger years. And yep, even had this notorious game. What I remember is that it had boring and frustrating gameplay at the same time. Never finished it to the end. But hey, had it on sale for a couple of bucks 😄
For all you wondering what all the fuzz is about, here is some gaming footage:
