Asteroids Multigame - Wondering Again!

3 Asteroids cabinets... 2 Asteroids Deluxe cabinets... + 2 additional Asteroids PCB's later...

I'm not interested. I was interested in 2006. I was interested in 2007. Same with 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014.... and about 2015 I started not giving a damn... I sold me extra Asteroids PCBs... and at some point during 2015 I sold my last Asteroids Deluxe cabinet.

I'm not holding my breath. I figure I'll work on buying a cabinet AFTER I acquire a KIT (rather than the other way around which is normal)...

LOL! Not interested, but interested!

With your luck Asteroids will double in value AFTER the kits. :D
 
I'm still interested in the Deluxe kit. I too have been waiting for years but you know, in this hobby that seems pretty normal. As long as I get a chance to buy at least one kit before some newb asshole grabs the last 25 kits in a planned future price gouge campaign I'll be happy.
 
was very interested long ago & almost signed up on the waiting list, but no longer care about this one (i also sold my asteroids & asteroids deluxe UR's long ago along with a pile of working boards)

still interested in the b&w vector pcb but don't believe it will happen .... have i become cynical?
 
I held on to my AD for YEARS hoping this would finally release. I gave up a few months ago and sold it, cash buyer making a can't-pass-up offer.

I'm not holding my breath. It will be easier for me to find a replacement machine once these come out, I don't have the space to store and just wait.
 
It really is too bad the kits haven't made it out in quantity yet. It's the only real multi kit I have, and having the 3 games in one cab is really nice since I have a small game room. AD loses a lot of cool factor without the background and black light, and LL without the thruster, but without a multi I wouldn't be playing them at all.
Bottom line: when/if it comes out, buy it.
 
Whoever finally makes these could sell 1000 of them easily.
 
LOL... you guys that complain about only owning the cab for this multi are funny.

If the original game doesn't interest you, I doubt the multi will do much for you either. If you have an Asteroids and want the kit because you only really like Deluxe, then you should probably just get a Deluxe (same goes for any other combination). Having 3 games you don't really care for in a single cabinet doesn't make it much better.

I see it mostly as the original game, plus 2 bonus games... not a replacement for all 3 games.

I was about to say the same thing. Couldn't comprehend how this would make you want to hold onto the game and without it they had to sell the game.

This, especially for LL. If you love LL or AD then get those games, the multi can't replace them. But you can't ask for 2 better bonus games than Lunar Lander and whichever flavor of Asteroids you don't have.

.
 
For ME... Asteroids... AD... or LL... not games that are worth the space they take up by themselves (barely for AD). All three in one cabinet? Now it's worth the space in my gameroom which has limited space...

Must resist giving NEG REP for such blasphemy. :p

(I don't care much for LL, though I own a cab, but I do like the idea of having AST and DLX in one/either cab -> similar to Braze's Centipede/Millipede combo -> both games compliment each other)

Playing Lunar Lander on Asteroids Deluxe is awesome (main reason I wanted one), was able to wrestle a kit away ~6 months back.

The board is very playable in current form, apparently there are a few sound glitches Scott isn't 100% happy with before releasing, I sure don't notice them. Hope these see the light of day soon.

Sorry... I can fit about 23-24 machines in my gameroom. Asteroids, AD, nor LL are in my top 25.... put all 3 together and they are...
 
I too am waiting and waiting. I did get a high score kit for my asteroids Steve at the time said he was working on the multi caves and he would let me know when they came out that was almost a year ago :(
