I remember back in 1980, I believe, Atari showed the first version of Asteroids for the 2600 at the summer CES and the response wasn't very good. All it had was large rocks moving up the screen and smaller ones moving down. So they had to go back to the drawing room. Anyone ever see it or know more about it?

Saw this tee-shirt on ebay and got to wondering if the 7800 could do this? No, I don't mean make tee-shirts, just the multi-colored invaders...

Hi,

Hi,
Put my copy on E-Bay for those interested!

I got a couple of Sears Light Sixers and in a couple of weeks I plan on putting a Flashback 2 into one. Need to find out info on wiring it onto the 2600 board and any diagrams or other ideas that might help! Also, when I complete it, I'd like to find a label that I could put onto a "dummy" cartridge that can sit in the slot when I'm playing the built-in games. Wouldn't look right being on with no cartridge installed! Thanks!
