Wasn't Atari responsible for burying millions of cartridges of ET in a desert landfill because it was so crap?
Yes, 5 million ET carts, along with 5 million PacMan carts, and an uncounted number of other titles. PacMan was especially stupid as they had 12 million carts made when only 10 million consoles had been sold all total. It's amazing they managed to sell 7 million PacMan carts.
I never saw a TV commercial for either Atari or Commodore though, which is odd.
I saw those old ads Alan Alda made for Atari. Never saw a CBM ad.
