Atari would never trash the E.T. cartridges. Instead, they would do what Nintendo did to the RadarScope arcades and left-over Mario Paint boxes: recycle for later use. Nintendo reused the RadarScope arcades for the Donkey Kong arcades, while they sold MOTHER 2 in North America as EarthBound while packing them with a Nintendo Power Player's Guide in the left-over Mario Paint boxes. So it would of cost E.T. a lot of money to hire all those diggers and waste the cartridges they could of re-used.
Yes, the cart is real and does exist. Atari Age carried it from December of 2006 to spring of 2007. Long story but Atari Age no longer carries this cart, but may again in the future or I may find another manufacturer/distributor for it. Pm me here, as I should be able to get you a copy.
how can this only have 3000 views, oh well - lovely video game
