I vaguely remember seing one as a Kid somwhere here in Greece although i only played the upright version,i remembered the sound effects blew me away back then ! as i might have mentioned before this is one of my favourite classics .
How dare he unplug that right in the middle of your game? Lol. Great video as always. I enjoy seeing these classic machines of my youth being restored.
Great job with the videos Ken and Kurt - oh and Todd too :) You know, one of these days I'm gonna have to buy one of these pin ball units from you guys. I'm out here in the SF Bay Area so I'm thinking a Tron or Black Hole themed cabinet. Much appreciation - keep up the good work.
+Jeremy Lee Potocki Wel, I have worked on pinball machines from the 40's...we also have had games from 30's...but we don't actually fix them ...just sell them as-is...
Atari made a lot more than 47,000 Asteroids uprights. Most accounts have Atari producing some 70,000 machines (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asteroids_(video_game)#cite_note-VGExplosion-15). Atari produced a special gold version for the 50,000th one, similar to the gold Defender that Williams made for their 50,000th - forums.arcade-museum.com/showthread.php?t=225750 You're quoting the 47k number from a pdf that Scott Evans posted, but that's just a spreadsheet he put together. It's not scans of actual Atari documents.
Can you find a color vector monitor for etra style vasulka style experimentation/ much like the lady of the lake . NASA had many- they have to exist. Will buy
Todd, why did the distributor foot the cost of the machine out of his take ($3500), while the person who hosted the machine kept his entire $3500 to himself? You would think they would split the machine cost equally. The distributor would have been better off becoming a host for other distributors' machines!
+Michael Quattrocchi Typically, the split is 50/50....the location provides the electric and makes the change and puts up with the kids...and the vendor supplies the game and service.
+James Kennedy That video was posted YESTERDAY, young man! You are not watching all of our videos! :-) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-dj67hUWQCr8.html
