The Extra-Terrestrial
Back in 1982, Atari was the world’s most popular gaming system. In the same year, the film E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial came out in theaters and was a huge hit. Atari made the move to purchase the gaming rights for the movie, convinced that an E.T. game would be as wildly successful as the movie was. To be honest, that was a fair assumption.
But for one reason or another, E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial just never quite caught on as a game. Over half of the four million cartridges that Atari produced went straight to a landfill–which makes this not only a product fail, but also a pretty significant environmental fail.
