-What is the difference between this kit and the Braze kit?
Well, the answer is not much! This is a "crossover" kit that we did and Braze also did. Both kits are similar.
However, any of our online kits or even all of our exclusive kits, then, that's another story! Please check out all the features on any of our save kits and compare them for yourselves.
Supporting current development is ALWAYS appreciated and will keep more and more NEW and EXCLUSIVE kits coming out for years to come. Support the current guy!
In short, our kits have more bells and whistles. Please check out the Features when you make your decision. All our menu systems are screen based, no need for a service and/or test switch. The Braze kits requires this.
Crazy cool
Who would have thought putting in this simple to use save kit is well, simple. Took me only a few minutes and was able to use free play. And to think I was using quarters for over 40 years. Wish I found this sooner!
Works awesome! Asteroids Rulez! Lol
Shipped out fast and was securely packaged.

I called because I wanted to understand exactly what to order. Joe took his time asking questions about our game and made a few suggestions on what would offer us free play and score saving.

Why are there different kits? Online, Offline, Braze?
This is a GREAT question!
Let's start with this - "What is the difference between this kit and the Braze kit?"
Well, the answer is not much! This is a "crossover" kit that both Braze and we did. The kit for this particular game is very similar to the Braze kit or as we like to say, the Braze kit is very similar to our kit.
Now, when we get to Donkey Kong, any of our online kits or even all of our exclusive kits, then, that's another story! Supporting current development is ALWAYS appreciated and will keep more and more NEW and EXCLUSIVE kits coming out for years to come. Support the current guy! :)
Our kits also have a few more bells and whistles. Attract sounds can be adjusted and used in conjunction with free play, so no coins are needed. Our menu system is screen based, no need for a service and/or test switch. All Braze kits requires these. Our kits do not.
Hi, how do you enter the menu on the Asteroids kit?
It will automatically pop up on the screen when the game is turned on. If no input in about 5 seconds, it goes into game attract mode.
I see there are multiple high score save kits for the same game. What's the difference? Which one should I choose?
Great Question!
While all of the high score save kits save scores, have an on screen menu for difficulty settings and other features like attract sounds (Please see the description under each kit for full details)
There are usually 2 or 3 main types -
High Score Save kit - This is a great option for anyone wanting to save scores and have free play option on their game with some other cool options! Again, please see the product description page for each kit you are looking at.

Braze High Score Save kit - The Braze high score save kits give you features listed under each product and are not capable of uploading scores online.
Hope this helps answer your question!
Learn moreWe just installed the asteroids highscore save kit in our machine and it's all working great! However, we were curious why our machine always seems to want to enter the initial setup each time we start it up? We always have to hit hyperspace at the rotating pyramid screen to get to the actual game. Did we just miss a step somewhere?
There has been an update with Version 2 that has "Stealth Mode" available in settings menu. You can switch OFF Boot Up in the settings menu...and the intro screen is gone! You can see what version you have at the top of your settings menu.
