- TRIVIA -
This prototype was never released (6 units are known to exist). If this game had been released on schedule it would have commemorated Atari's 20th anniversary. It has 2 games on offer, ""Super Centipede"" and ""Missile Command II"". They are both re-makes of the original classics but with enhanced graphics and sound.
After selecting ""more new stuff"" in the operator's mode; two kinds of spaceships will appear in the ""Missile Command II"" game. The ""Mothership"" that appears after a few levels is exactly the same as (except less detailed than) ""Birdsnest"", which is a spaceship on page 21 of the 1978 book ""Spacecraft 2000 to 2100AD"".
The spaceships in the ""Invasion Wave"" are probably ripped from another book in the series.
