Space Invaders
Space Invaders was designed and programmed by Toshihiro Nishikado for Taito, Japan in 1978 and remains one of the most popular arcade games ever made.

Space Invaders was originally going to be called something completely different as the aliens were originally soldiers which you had to shoot down. They decided that it was politically unwise to encourage killing humans so changed the people into aliens.



Multitouch Space Invaders
Space Invaders was followed by several sequels as Space Invaders - Part II, Space Invaders Deluxe, Super Space Invaders 91 (Super Space Invaders has also another name... Majestic Twelve Space Invaders Part IV. Everything is the same as in SSI '91 except for the title screen. It was released in the US and Japan under this name, and SSI '91 was only released in Japan under as SSI '91), Space Invaders DX followed up in 1993 and in 1999 Space Invaders attacked once again from Activision. Now there’s a new Space Invaders, it’s called Multitouch Space Invaders.
