Playfield graphics are limited to 40x192 resolution.  That means pretty
wide rectangular blocks.  Any graphics you see narrower than 1/40th of the
screen is sprite usage.  This includes the missile trails in Missile
Command and the asteroids in Asteroids.  There is barely any playfield
graphics in either game.
