SNEAK PREVIEW
A new and different game innovation
will be introduced soon by Atari. This
game has all the features of a winner
and more. A popular theme, realistic
action, player involvement, competi-
tion, attraction and play appeal are
some of the general characteristics that
make this game a record breaker
among all previous games. It has a uni-
que presentation that will draw crowds
and is designed for location versatility
Most important, while on test this
new game showed higher collections
than any other, including most of the
best games in the market. When the
game was removed from location for
further development, many players
specifically asked about the game and
even called Atari to find out where they
could go to play it.
"This spectacular new game will be
available in the near future," reported
Frank Ballouz, National Sales
Manager. ''We are looking forward to
this being the strongest new game con-
cept in the industry.'' It is sure to be a
players' favorite in bars, taverns,
restaurants, game centers... every-
where! Watch for the official introduc-
tion next month.
A SPECTACULAR
INTRODUCTION
Super Breakout™ gives operators a.
unique opportunity to introduce this
game to players in a spectacular way.
By running a special contest promotion
for the introduction of Super Breakout
to a location, players will be encourag-
ed to practice their Breakout™ skills as
well as generate enthusiasm and added
income.

Tom Petit is the newest member of
Atari's dynamic sales team. As Sales
Representative in the Western Region,
Tom works closely with Atari
distributors to promote closer com-
munications with the marketplace.
''His experience and training with
Atari's engineering and manufacturing
departments make Tom a valuable ad-
dition to our sales team,'' commented
Don Osborne, Western Regional Sales
Manager.
Prior to his graduation from Santa
Clara University, Tom held a part-time
position with Atari's product develop-
ment engineering.
His studies in
marketing together with his continued
experience in engineering and
manufacturing gave him an excellent
background for sales and product sup-
port in the field. As sales represen-
tative, Tom will work with Don Osborne
traveling to meet with Atari
distributors and operators in the
Western Region. This will increase
Atari's interaction in the market and
help to obtain valuable inputs for
future product development and sup-
port programs.
A sign reading "PRACTICE NOW,
SUPER BREAKOUT IS COMING'' can be
placed on top of a Breakout game. The
game should be positioned in a prime
traffic area. Posters announcing an up-
coming contest on the new game placed
in the location and in other nearby
public places will stimulate interest.
The contest could be held around the
first week that Super Breakout is plac-
ed in the location.
There are many different ways the
contest can be set up. One suggestion
follows:
SUPER BREAKOUT

RULES:
• The top prize winners will have the
highest total combined scores on
