Super Breakout DescriptionMove a paddle back and forth at the bottom of the screen to rebound a ball back into a brick wall, knocking bricks out one by one. There are three separate games: double -- same as Breakout, knock down bricks and when they are all gone a new wall forms; cavity -- two other balls are inside the wall, when they have an escape route you can hit them as well; progressive -- as the wall is destroyed, new bricks are added and the entire wall shifts down toward your paddle. The sound effects are just simple beeps.Know anything more about this game? Cabinet InformationThe cabinet artwork has an artist's rendering of bricks with an electrical bolt and explosion (very simplistic) hitting an area. The same artwork appears on the marquee.MiscellaneousHaving three separate game options is very unique.You can play a Shockwave version of Super Breakout online here (note: this only appears to work with Internet Explorer): ftp://internet.hasbrointeractive.com/anonftp/shockwave/superbreakout.html VAPS Arcade CensusGAMES OWNED, WANTED, or FOR SALE BY MEMBERS OF THE VIDEO ARCADE PRESERVATION SOCIETYCommon - There are 22 known instances of Super Breakout owned by one of our 900 members. Of these, 19 of them are original dedicated machines, and 3 of them are only circuit boards which a collector could put into a generic case if desired. Wanted - We currently do not know of any VAPS members that have gotten around to adding this game to their wish list. The wish-list system is fairly new (not all VAPS members have filled one out) and there are probably a number of collectors who might purchase this game if offered one at the right price. For Sale - There are 3 VAPS members with Super Breakout machines for sale. VAPS members are totally independent of VAPS and the International Arcade Museum, and we are unable to recommend, endorce, or guarantee any person or company selling games or game parts. Rarity is NOT necessarily an indication of value. Some common games show up as very rare here because collectors don't want them (they are common because arcade operators might be sitting on tons of them in warehouses), while some fairly scarce games are grabbed by collectors every time they show up. Additionally, some games made in the last 5 years are still making money for operators and are thus not yet affordable to the typical collector. For a clue to value, compare how many people have this game vs. how many people want this game and then click on the eBay links to help determine an accurate price range. eBay ListingsClick here to automatically search eBay's Arcade, Jukebox, and Pinball categories for the Super Breakout Videogame machine and items related to it.Click here to automatically search eBay's Arcade, Jukebox, and Pinball categories for machines and parts made by Atari.
