Asteroids Deluxe has 2 backdrops?? I never knew that! Gives it a really nice 3D depth appearance.
I was just thinking arcade cabinets go from highly customised to mostly standard back to the customised again as time progresses through their history. In the late 70s, early 80s it's this sort of thing but once you get to the late 80s, early 90s everything's CRT and joystick.It's only once the late 90s roll by that you get cabs, guns, more than one screen again.I doubt you could fit a 4-player tho!
Super zap can actually be used twice per level. First use kills all spawned enemies, 2nd use will kill 1 enemy (nearest the player). Recharges between stages.
Tempest is copyright 1980, released in October of '80. Great game, love my upright!
LOVE THIS GAME!!! I always play it when my son and I go to our local arcade in town called "1984." You pay $5.00 and play as much as you want for 3-4 hours.
I love Tempest too. Lost many many monies into it in my youth, but my favorite vector game was Star Trek Strategic Operation Simulator. Best game ever!
My god that is a Beautiful Asteroids machine. I have a Tron arcade machine, when I turn the knob to aim it skips a bit so I don't have the full 360 range. Any reccomendations? I saw your tron it looks perfect condition.

Tempest and Star Wars are my two favorite vector games. Are you ever going to sell anything or are you good with what you have?
