These were released by Team Pixelboy last month. Here is a recent AtariAge post about it: https://atariage.com/forums/topic/327644-team-pixelboy-news-bulletin-november-26th-2021/

Wow. Looks almost exactly like the arcade.

it says the "Super Game Module" is required to play. What the heck is that??

It came out in 2012 and it is rare. You can get one on Ebay for about $350. Here is a video review:

Oh wow, that's good to know.

So is this new Asteroids still available for purchase?

Sounds like from this post, Pixelboy worked out a deal with Collectorvision to produce more copies of Asteroids:

so many of these homebrew titles are so good that i hate they are released in limited numbers and then forgotten about
i mean i understand why but man there is so much good work that goes into these from the box art to the manuels and great games..i really think a lot of these should be included when they list the total number of offical releases a system has
