Super Breakout for Atari

Recently my husband picked up three large boxes of Atari paraphernalia at a local flea market, and this Super Breakout box was amongst the booty. I’m not really sure when astronauts started playing tennis in space (never mind the whole free-fall/lack-o-gravity bit) but it makes for an amusing scan. Don’t you agree?

Here’s a history of Super Breakout and an online, licensed Flash version of the game.

Monopoly, Modernized

Johnson Space Center Monopoly card

Monopoly Here & Now has a set of tokens and properties for today’s Modern Child:

A Modern Makeover for Today’s Would-Be Billionaires!

  • Play America’s favorite game as if it were invented TODAY!
  • Move with cool tokens that are iconic to life here & now.
  • Own popular destinations from across the United States

Nice to see that Johnson Space Center is a “popular destination”, although I don’t think NASA is keen on selling it. (Found here.)
