Comparing Atari's Asteroids Recharged To It's Arcade Ancestors

https://arcadeheroes.com - It's been a bit since I looked at something arcade-related for consoles, but with the recent "Recharged" releases by Atari, it's a good opportunity to do so. This video offers a quick look at Asteroids Recharged on the Nintendo Switch (it's also available on the PC/PS4/XBox) but also briefly compares it with:

-Asteroids (1979)
-Space Duel (1982)
-Blasteroids (1987)

As it says in the video, do NOT take the captures of Asteroids and Space Duel as "gospel." These were designed for vector monitors, which produce a unique glow & contrast effect that does not get passed along on modern monitors; Even when you point a camera at a vector monitor it loses some of it's look. It's one of those cool things you have to see in person.

This game is also available on the Atari VCS but that's just an Atari branded PC so nothing special. If you already have a decent PC or laptop, or one of the major consoles, you might as well grab it there.
