this brings back memories. when my dad owned arcades in Oregon in the late 70's / early 80's, i mastered this game. could play for hours on one token. i don't remember my highest score, but i do remember breaking 7 or 8,000,000. was going to go for the word record but didnt have the stamina. i was 10-12 years old when i was playing this. a lot of fun years at those arcades, and i met a lot of interesting people as well ;-)
Damn, 41 MILLION points! I remember how great I felt when I scored 10,000 points and earned ONE extra ship back in 1980-81 when I played Asteroids in the arcades. It's definitely one of the hardest classic games to play for a record. Thanks for the video, love those classic games!
Long ago I played that game and I became the best in my city in CHILE (Concepción), although I played the Asteroids de Luxe. I left the record for the first three places: 999,990
i have the skills for this too but not the stamina johns asteroids deluxe scores i think are even more impressive him and leo are way ahead of the rest of us
Is it better to break with lots of rocks on screen or few rocks? Fewer rocks attracts saucers and they AIM. So...

can you offer any proof?
I have my original machine and can't last more than 10 minutes or so I respect folks playing on the original and new machines
Reckon his mum was angry he had his friends over for nearly a week
Shame they didn't show the inside of the machine. I'd like to know which speedup kit is on his board.
the speed appeared to be normal to me
