Modern Classic | The Great Atari Dump of 1983 - yes, it happened! @ModernClassic | Uploaded February 2017 | Updated October 2024, 12 minutes ago.
In 1983, Atari dumped a huge number of E.T., Defender and other games and hardware in a landfill in Alamogordo, NM. This became an urban legend, with many people refusing to believe that it actually happened without physical evidence. The documentary "Atari: Game Over" finally unearthed the dump and proved it true. I bought one of the games the filmmakers liberated from the landfill, and I show it off in this short video.

This is the first in a series of videos I'm calling "Turbo Mode" - short but hopefully interesting videos I can do in a few days while working on my more epic, longer pieces. I hope you like it!
