Yes please - what did you guys (outside of the UK) think about Space Invaders?

What licensed / unlicensed versions did you see back in the day?

We'd like more feedback from overseas listeners, please

Cool! Right in time! I'm traveling tomorrow and listening the show will 'accelerate' the travel! 

Regarding Space Invaders, I've seen many bootegs. For example all of these are French made 









I'm sure they are plenty of them...

[ShaunHolley]

Thanks DarthNuno. Odyssee 2000 is a completely new one to me, and they've even changed the cabinet art. I wonder if the game exactly the same?

[virtvic]

I really like the Super Invaders!

Can I have it, please? 

[DarthNuno]

... and I would kill for this ...'clone'...(but does it really exist)?   



 

[anunaki]

O yeah, that looks truely awesome Bruno

[ShaunHolley]

... and I would kill for this ...'clone'...(but does it really exist)?    

The game certainly exists in MAME, but the cabinet art I've found does not feature Darth Vader

[DarthNuno]

...and just finished to listen that old one in my car this morning. 
Great show, I didn't know about the Space Invaders hints, thanks  I hope I'll increase my score with them 
So you also had in UK the TAITO version of the game only? Not the Midway model?
Oh, and a important precision about the gam 'Grobda' mentioned at the end of the show (back in time).
It certainly has common points with the Atari's TANK game, but it's mainly a spin-off from Xevious, as the player's tank (which is the eponymous "Grobda") first appeared in that game as an enemy. Xevious rulez!
