Classic Game Room HD - SUPER BREAKOUT for Atari 5200 review

Classic Game Room HD reviews SUPER BREAKOUT for Atari 5200. This Super version of Breakout was released in 1982 for the Atari 5200. How does it compare to the Atari 2600 version of Super Breakout? Watch the review and see. It's like Pong meets Arkanoid for those of you not familiar with Atari's masterpiece. Breakout took the simplicity of a basic paddle and ball bouncing game and amplified it to new extremes with fast paced, intense action. Destroy the bricks in this arcade style classic video game, earn more points for bricks higher in the formation and challenge yourself with increased speed when you do better. Super Breakout contains 4 different versions of gameplay for the Atari 5200 controller, although without paddle controller support the game suffers in the control department. Classic Game Room HD reviews Atari 5200 games as an Atari 5200 reviewer reviewing Atari 5200 video games like Super Breakout. This CGRHD has Super Breakout gameplay from Atari 5200.

The 2600 is classic but the 5200 is actually better, only flaws were it's size, the A/C adapter (even though adapters suck period), the weird box thing you plug the cables into, and the does not work unless you fix it yourself controller. Basically I prefer the 5200 controller for games like breakout instead if using those stupid knob controllers for the 2600 version

This game plays best with the 5200 Trak-Ball Controller.

The Controllers actually work!!?

There seems to be some glitches. At around 1:35 the ball passes between two bricks and hits one that it normally should not have had access to.

I once witnessed in the cavity version, that if you release all the balls into the top of the screen, the computer could not kep up with the scoring as multiple balls broke the bricks.

Great review, just a shame some of the game footage used is from old video tapes.
