Merger Proposal

This article should either be deleted or merged with Alien's Return because it is the same game with a localized title.
Plus most of the article's content is either made up or not researched at all.
The game is not "practically impossible to find", there are three individual copies on eBay right now. One is even in its original box.
The claim "loosely based on the 1982 film E.T." is also false. The game itself has nothing to do with the movie. The box art just references E.T. but the main character is called UFI, hence the title. E.T. doesn't need to find parts of a spaceship in the movie, like UFI does in the game. The only similarity is that both main characters are aliens.

Merge - I've tagged both pages for merging. These are the same game, just a different name for a different region. Both articles contain useful content, but I think we should use Alien's Return, as that's the game's English title. --Danjewell (talk) 00:47, 15 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Are we absolutely sure it's the same game? There are no content changes? Is it localized, like on the title screen or something? Do at least situationally RSes say so? — Smuckola (Email) (Talk) 01:23, 15 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

They are literally the same game. This page has screenshots and ROMs of both so you can see for yourself [1] [2]. The only real difference is the oddball cartridge artwork on the German published version of the game, and that can easily be included in the merged article. --Danjewell (talk) 08:46, 15 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
