Asteroids Arcade Game *

Considered one of the all-time greatest classic arcade games, Asteroids by Atari from 1979 is the one to own!

In this classic Atari game, your space craft is dangerously situated among fast moving asteroids in an asteroid belt that can destroy your ship on contact.

Armed with a front mounted weapon and the ability to hyperspace, you fly through the debris, destroying each rock one piece at a time. Alien saucers visit the playfield from time to time with an eye towards destroying your ship!

We recently acquired this game from a local collector. It has been well cared for and restored. Restoration includes the following:
– Brand new smooth black t-molding installed around the perimeter of cabinet
– Repainted coindoor and touched up some small imperfections on the exterior of the cabinet
– Restored control panel; sanded smooth repainted and new control panel overlay
– Brand new white leaf switch push buttons on control panel
– Brand new “Big Blue” voltage regulation capacitor installed in lower cabinet
– Rebuild AR Board – re-flowed header pins and installed new capacitors and voltage regulation transistors.
– Rebuilt vintage 19″ Vector Monitor – re-flowed header pins on monitor chassis, installed new capacitors and XY deflection transistors on frame.

This game is classic vintage arcade greatness! It looks and plays great! You would be hard pressed to find a more nicer looking original Atari Asteroids than this example right here.  The original 19″ Black & White vector monitor has a nice, crisp, bright picture. The monitor does exhibit some screen burn in on the picture tube as you would come to expect from a game of this age that spent many hours on in an arcade. The burn in does not effect game play…but it’s there and should be noted.

Asteroids includes our 30 day warranty on the electronics.

Fun!
