I own a arcade version of Atari Asteroids and am trying to modify
it to allow a pause in the action.  I have tried tying the RDY line of
the 6502 low (active high), but the thing ignores it!  Any ideas?  The
RDY line (pin 2) was just tied high before I attempted modification.

Anyway, I am looking for general playing hints as well as documentation
on the main board and system notes.  Is there the equivalent of a "Sams
Guide" for video games?
