A Canadian studio has confirmed to the BBC it will search a former landfill site in New Mexico where Atari's much-criticised ET game may be buried.
Fuel Entertainment has permission from the city of Alamogordo to excavate and is finalising funding for the project.
The video game was among the first to be licensed from a film franchise and was based on the Spielberg film ET.
Despite the success of the film the game was very badly received and Atari suffered huge financial losses.
It was released at Christmas 1982 for the Atari 2600 console but many copies were returned and the game was given terrible reviews.
Shortly afterwards the entire video games industry crashed, as PCs started to become more widespread.
Urban legend
In September 1983 the firm is said to have dumped millions of cartridges at the landfill site and buried them under concrete.
Fuel Entertainment, which has offices in Canada and LA, has six months to carry out its search, to coincide with the 30th anniversary.
スピルバーグから最初にETのライセンスをとったETのゲームだという。
カナダのフュエルエンターテイメント社は設立30周年記念として、半年かけて探すということ。
