Regarding Breakout and Super Breakout, did Atari ever have any type of legal dispute with Taito regarding their creation of Arkanoid in 1986? Martin, could you shed any light on this? Different Arkanoid websites list the game as being "based upon" or "inspired by" by Breakout, but I really can't find anything concrete if Atari had a problem with Arkanoid.
