I remember getting this game for my Atari 2600 only to have Super Breakout come out a year later. I felt kind of ripped off. Same thing happened with the Blackjack cartridge when Casino came out a year later with more card games. Some other sequels that were far superior to the original were Pac-Man / Ms. Pac-Man and Defender / Stargate (Defender II).
