When you take a look back it's obvious that Space Invaders is a founding block of video game history that filled the arcades full of people queuing to play the revolutionary shooter.

It is said that in Japan the game made 100 Yen coins scarce and defined the visuals and mechanics in the first decade of video games.

Now the most complete Space Invaders collection on cart ever, the Space Invaders Invincible Collection, is heading to the West.

It combines all titles from the Japanese standard and special releases on one cartridge, including Space Invaders DX (1994), Space Cyclone (1980) and Lunar Rescue (1979) - the limited Western collection even has the console port of the game Arkanoid vs. Space Invaders which is a unique title that was only available as a download code in the Japanese version.

The following games are part of the Space Invader Invincible Collection: 

● Space Invaders (1978, Arcade) – b/w

● Space Invaders (1978, Arcade) – colour

● Space Invaders Part II (1979, Arcade)

To celebrate 40 years of Space Invaders, Square Enix and TAITO held an art installation and limited-time event in Japan called “PLAY! Space Invaders”.

For the event, TAITO, with Square Enix, created a huge version of the game “Space Invaders Gigamax” with a 7 metre high by 15-metre widescreen.
