Original restored Space Invaders arcade video game manufactured by Bally Midway and released in 1978. Housed in its original cabinet, 26.5˝ x 68.25˝ x 34˝, with classic space-themed designs to side and front panels, marquee, minotaur, and control plate, which contains game instructions and buttons for player select, fire, and laser base control. This arcade contains a multi-game Space Invaders chip that includes the following gameplay options:
Space Invaders
Space Invaders Deluxe
Lunar Rescue
Balloon Bomber
Jatre Specter
Space Laser
Galaxy Wars
Super Earth Invasion
In fine, fully functioning condition, with wear to the control plate, and some scuffs to the cabinet; this unit has been lovingly restored, ensuring that every detail, from the iconic alien artwork to the original sound effects, remains true to the original experience.
A cornerstone of arcade history, Space Invaders is widely credited with revolutionizing the gaming industry, with its release leading to a wave of shoot-'em-up games such as Galaxian and the vector graphics-based Asteroids in 1979. It was the first fixed shooter and the first video game with endless gameplay (no final level or endscreen), and its pixelated enemy alien has become a pop culture icon, often representing video games as a whole. Space Invaders was considered the highest-grossing entertainment product of its time, with comparisons made to the then-highest-grossing film Star Wars which had grossed $486 million. A gorgeous example of one of gaming’s most influential and celebrated titles.
