History

was the first electronic game to trigger the boom of arcade "and is still among the most cloned in history.

Space Invaders was designed and distributed by Taito in 1978, but had to wait until 1980 to 1979 and marketed it respectively in Italy (distributed by Sidam - "Invasion" ) and USA (distributed by Atari and Nintendo).

The original version of the game but would have instead of the alien ships of the soldiers who were advancing toward a kind of bunker (that "barriers to land" closely resemble the barriers of bags used in the war and the ships appear more "march "to fly) but the setting was then changed at the last moment: the fact Taito did not want his game could send out the message that killing a man had something good and fun.

Curiosity

- The Game generated in a few years sales of $ 500 million.

- Due to the incredible success of this game, in Japan there was a considerable "shortage of coins." To work around this problem, the Japanese government was forced to quadruple coin issues.
