+iesposta #351 Posted February 21, 2013 Early adopters get one of these, right? It is on eBay for "Atari 2600 Starplex Joystick Custom Paint Asteroids Design Boxed" for $125.00, an insane amount of money. Great idea, though. The BEST WAY to play Space Rocks! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

+Ransom #353 Posted February 25, 2013 Ooh, tantilizing! I'm dying to buy this. Finally, an excellent version of Asteroids for the 2600! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nognir #354 Posted February 26, 2013 Tried the latest version today and I'm really happy to get this as soon as it will be released. Again an excellent game Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+SpiceWare #355 Posted February 27, 2013 Thanks! I eagerly awaiting for it to be released as well, though I don't know how much longer it'll be. The printing company messed up the manual: the blue parts came out purple while white text ended up grey, which rendered it illegible. I think Al's still waiting on Melody boards as well.

+Ransom #356 Posted February 27, 2013 Huh. Between your experience, that of Al recently (with the Tempest 5200 manuals) and Opcode (with the Super Game Module manuals and boxes), I have to wonder what's up in the printing industry. Regardless, this one is definitely worth waiting for. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
