Atari 7800 Asteroids, Box, Manual. This is sometimes known as Asteroids 3D.As the Atari 7800 was delayed a few years from when it was supposed to be mass distributed, I bought this when it came out, but only played it a few times. It's been in it's box since about 1988 except to take these photos. The Atari 7800 were was unique for it's time. I was a huge fan of the arcade machine when it first came out and spent a lot of quarters on it. I eventually bought all four arcade machines in the Asteroids series.
