Hmmm, maybe this could be a reason for different ROM revisions? I don't know anything about the US market, but did Sears distribute Asteroids as a Sears cart? If so, it wouldn't surprise me if they didn't like an Atari copyright message appearing at startup, hence the revision... but it's only a wild guess.
BTW, I saw that Asteroids is an 8K cart, which rather surprises me since I think it's not THAT complicated... so I'm only curious if all ROM revisions have 8K or if there are some with less (4K, for instance...). And I still wonder what they needeed all that ROM space for...
