search astro fighter 8 clones
WRX2 has all the top submissions
I remember playeing the table-top at pizza hut
also table top Gorf at the same location in 1982.
table top Bosconian , taco bell in 1981 , up the street
and last but not least- upright Spacce Firebird & Cosmic GUerilla at a coffee shop near home
plus stand -up version of VENTURE by EXIDY that has to be the largest and bulkiest arcade game of all time.
easily weighs 1000 pounds
no way one person could move it very far without causing minor injuriesd to yersef.

thanks tar, i thought i searched for all astro's but this is the correct name Astro Fighter. Definitely not a clone of Astro Wars. Colors (which might just not be rendered correctly) and movements are different, but very similar sprites.

I remember an Astro Blaster mini cabinet that was really small, small enough for a 11 year old to stand tall over.
