Gaming News: "Alamogordo"
Posted: Wednesday November 5th, 2014 by

As of yesterday the City of Alamogordo has begun following through with it's plans to auction off the 1300 games they recovered from the nigh mythical landfill where ET for the Atari 2600 were buried by the truckload. [more info] Of course E.T. was not the only game they uncovered. As such they're also not the only games being auctioned off. [more info] They are, however, the ones fetching the highest prices. As of the time of this writeup the highest price I saw was over $600. But, there is still a week of bidding to go. What's a piece of gamer history/legend worth I wonder?

I'd love to have one of the [Alamogordo Landfill] games for my swag shelf, E.T. or otherwise.

Edited for clarity.
