Included titles (partial introduction)

Space Invaders (original version)
The original shooting game in which players control their own ship to defeat invading invaders that shoot bullets from the top of the screen. The game's novelty at the time, with interactive attacks from both sides of the screen, attracted many players and triggered a worldwide boom.
This is a 4-digit version for black-and-white monitors in the early days of the game's operation.

Space Invaders (Color version)
A version for color monitors. In the early black-and-white version, the score was only four digits, and many players reached 9990 points. Therefore, the score became 5-digit from this version.
At the time, a number of coffee shops replaced all their tables with Space Invaders table cabinets. Subterfuges such as "Nagoya Shooting" and "Rainbow" became the talk of the town.

Space Invaders Gigamax 4 SE
The world's first Space Invaders game that can be played by multiple players simultaneously. Players shoot down invading invaders in a variety of formations to clear the screen as fast as possible.
This title is the "4 SE" version that allows up to four players to play at the same time, with new stages, gimmicks, newly written BGM by the Taito sound team "ZUNTATA," and even new combination moves that can be used during cooperative play.

Arkanoid vs. Invader
This game is a fusion of "Space Invaders" and the block crusher classic "Arkanoid. The player uses bows to repel attacks by the Invaders and destroys enemies and blocks with their bullets. The game consists of 150 stages x 2 modes, which are cleared by using more than 20 different skills, such as power-ups and covering fire.
