[@geoserenity]

Fun fact: Space invaders has always sped up based on how many enemies are left. Its based on the arcade limitations where the arcade struggled the more ships were on screen, this was emulated in the ports to keep the difficulty curve

[@OtterlyInsane]

This

[@mymomsaysimcool9650]

I’m 52 and still remember the first time I saw and played this game. It was at the entrance of a department store called Heck’s. Dad had to hold me up to play it.

[@RetroCore]

Those are some classic memories. I remember seeing one in a shed at some country pub back in the early 80s. It wasn't plugged in so my brother and I plugged it in only to be amazed once it started up. My dad was quite annoyed though as we persted him for 10 pence 😂

[@atm94404]

The original arcade speeds up based on how many are left, not position. It was a happy accident caused by slowdown as the processor wasn't powerful enough to update all the invaders smoothly. When the programmer saw the result, he kept the "bug" rather try to optimize it because he liked how it ramped up the difficulty as you got closer to the end. Atari got that detail correct in their ports. This was a deliberate decision because slowdown isn't really a thing on the Atari VCS (and 8-bit) because of how the hardware works (no framebuffer). It either works at 60fps or it doesn't work at all.

[@SpaceFractal-g2o]

its only updated one aliens per frame as im is aware of it..... yes its cool he keeped that "bug" by not optimize it and yep im still loved the 2600 version. its was not arcade perfect at all. but its was till fun to play. that matter.

[@arashnikoubashman6946]

You got everything right, bravo! That’s why the 2600 doesn’t have sprite flicker either

[@kenwheeler3637]

Happy B-Day, Mark. 🎂 I remember how detailed and advanced this game was when it came out. Also remember the absolute joy I felt when I got the 2600 port for my B-Day. I could finally play it for as long as I wanted.

[@RetroCore]

Cheers 👍

[@chowdown]

Good gosh, the audio on the Atari 5200 really stands out here, in that it is strangely terrifying.

[@afriend9428]

Super Game Boy and ATARI 2600 are my favorite ⭐️

[@CptJistuce]

There is at least one western 8-bit computer with a Space Invaders port. The Atari computers had one. It was slightly modified to become 5200 Space Invaders.

[@OperationPhantom]

Well, those Atari invaders sure are "all your bases are belong to us" once they get to first base.

[@8bitsnkboy472]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MARK!! Thank you so much for all your amazing content for so many years!! Cheers!!

[@RetroCore]

Thank you very much 👍

[@johnebbs3819]

Space Invaders Extreme on the DS is a great game.

[@JudgmentStorm]

I'll second that. Also great are Majestic 12 (Super Space Invaders) and SI'95 The Attack of the Lunar Loonies (Akkan Vader), the parody one on Taito F3 cartridge- separate from Space Invaders DX.

[@jodyhong1]

The atari 2600 version was the first game to have a hidden cheat in it. Hold down reset while powering your 2600 on and your ship can fire 2 shots at a time instead of one.

[@RetroCore]

Nice cheat. That would come in so very handy.

[@julianobitsgen]

The PC-9801 Special mode featuring a guy throwing Pepsi cans at Coke cans seems like a response for one of the earliest advergames ever made, Pepsi Invaders for Atari 2600. If I'm not mistsken, it was promotional and used during an event. BTW, happy birthday!

[@RetroCore]

Could very well be. Thanks for the Happy birthday 👍

[@vivilovescarlo]

@@julianobitsgen Acho que possa ser também, concordo.

[@paulrahme]

Happy birthday and thanks for the BOTPs! From another person born in the year of Bohemian Rhapsody and the Rocky Horror Picture Show :)

[@RetroCore]

Cheers man, and thanks for watching. Yeah, 1975 was a pretty cool year 👍

[@flink1231]

I'm impressed with the sg1000 version! (Never thought I'd say that about a port!) I'm also surprised by the 5200 aliens animation fluidity!

[@RetroCore]

The SG1000 port is amazingly good. I can imagine many saying it was arcade perfect back in the day. Of course, it isn't but still close.

[@TechRyze]

IIRC the Arcade machine is z80 or 8080 based, so possibly uses the same code for much of the game.

[@JFD62780]

I got the Super Game Boy version, mainly because it had the SNES version on the cart! XD (Weird thing was only Nintendo Power could let me know such a thing was possible!)

[@Svartadragon]

The Super Gameboy mode was covered in all North American video game magazines bitd. The Super Gameboy mode for it was also advertised in magazines and TV commercials. The Super Gameboy mode was also advertised on the game's box and the game included a second manual dedicated to the Super Gameboy version.

[@videogamebookreviews]

There was an official conversion for the Atari 400/800 computers. It was programmed by Rob Fulop and published by Atari. It was somewhat stylised: for example, the aliens came out of a big spaceship. Some of the aliens had a cool wiggling effect as they moved.

[@DoomWarriorX]

Yeah I was confused by this too

[@daniel_lucio]

CLX 4008, 1981 black label, 1984 grey label, love this version

[@GamayObera]

The SFC one is mainly a port of Space Invaders DX, without the Parody Mode included in the Arcade original, which is sad. Perhaps because most games represented on it isn't available on the SNES, but still a loss. Also, happy birthday Mark.

[@RetroCore]

Thanks 👍

[@lorddalek]

The Super Nintendo version is actually a port of Space Invaders DX albeit with the New Zealand Story parody mode removed.

[@luisemilio1143]

First of all, Happy Birthday Mark! 🎉 Space Invaders technically made it to the 8bit and 16bit micro computers (Amiga, ST, C64), but as Super Space Invaders. That game was also made for the arcade by Taito and the ports were made by Domark. It’s more of an arrangement and a story mode version, you could make a BoP from that game too!

[@RetroCore]

Thanks man. I do plan to cover more space Invaders in the future. This would also include some Super Space Invaders as well as clones and stuff such as Space Invaders 90 on the Mega Drive.

[@billcook4768]

Remember kids, to maximize your score count your shots. Nail the “ufo” on either your 23rd shot or every 15th shot thereafter

[@RetroCore]

Pro tip 👍

[@videogamebookreviews]

I initially found the Atari VCS version to be a bit disappointing, but over time I came to prefer it to the arcade. It had some good variations.

[@SomeOrangeCat]

Happy Birthday. For me, and many gamers my age, the 2600 version was the first. I never saw the arcade cabinet until years after the fact.

[@RetroCore]

Thanks👍

[@creechrfeechr8094]

Happy birthday Mark! Thank you for another fantastic video! Nothing came close to the arcade original imho, but I was surprised to see the awesome SG1000 version.

[@RetroCore]

Thanks for the birthday wishes. Yeah, I was surprised at how good the SG1000 version was.

[@mattjenkin2884]

Good choice of music. Space Invaders 91 has a fantastic soundtrack.

[@RetroCore]

It sure is.

[@FabioGnecco]

this is what "Classic" looks like !

[@RetroCore]

Yep.

[@ats2099]

I grew up having only played this game on my Atari 2600- and it was only years and years later I finally tried it on an arcade cabinet to discover just how different the original was! The VCS sound effects still live in my head.

[@Valkian24]

Happy B-day, Mark! Hope you've had an amazing day! (I dig the faster sound of the aliens coming down in the 5200 version as you could probably sample that for a song :D)

[@RetroCore]

That would be a cool sample. Thanks for the happy birthday 👍

[@Fools_Requiem]

I was wondering when you'd get around to Space Invaders. IMO, the 94 Gameboy version that has the bonus Super Gameboy features is the definitive version.

[@RetroCore]

I'll probably do more Space Invaders in the future.

[@Code7Unltd]

The SNES program in the Super Game Boy cartridge removes the 2-player puzzle, though.

[@awwrelic]

Such a fun game. It was probably the second arcade video game I ever played, outside of Pong (which I played at a Greyhound bus terminal with my sister in 1975, as she was returning to Lackland AFB). Space Invaders I played in the lobby of a Holiday Inn with my (very drunk) elder brother in 1979. It was the original version with the moon scene in the background. We sucked so bad at that game back then :) Right now, I own the 2600 version, the Super Famicom version which I picked up last year for $3 at a game show, and various versions on the PS2 Taito collections.

[@RetroCore]

Thanks for sharing the happy memories 👍

[@Gloryzuki]

There is an Atari 8-Bit (Home Computer) port where the aliens actually differ from their arcade(?)/game counterparts. Just a head's up.

[@RetroCore]

Thanks, I'll see if I can add that to the follow up video.

[@rosa_uy]

Gotta love space invaders! Great video!

[@RetroCore]

Thanks for the visit

[@rosa_uy]

@@RetroCore Your welcome!

[@ZuranimatedMedia179]

I really love the Modern Version on the PC-9801 Version! The parody version on that port is also beautiful as well! Best port of Space Invaders in my opinion!

[@losalfajoresok]

I just turned 49 years old today and I think this was the first arcade I ever saw, as someone else said I remember my dad holding me up to reach the screen to "play it" because I think I just was moving the controls while in attract mode.

[@RetroCore]

Congratulations, we are the same age.

[@Nolasco.]

Thank you Mark and Happy birthday 🎁🎂🎉🎊

[@RetroCore]

Thank you! 😃

[@topofbones]

This time wins Super Famicom, lots of interesting stuff for this port. Very meritorious SG-1000 port. Waiting for the hilarious Space Invaders '95 😂

[@shotgunl]

Happy birthday, Mark! I prefer the Atari 2600/VCS port of the game over any port or the arcade versions, but that's probably because I played so much of it growing up and didn't play the arcade version until the late 90s nor any more similar to the arcade until I got the Game Boy port. I like the arcade Space invaders but just prefer the 2600 game.

[@RetroCore]

Thanks for the well wishes 👍

[@DeskoDev]

Awesome as usual! I really like the Game Boy version, mostly because of the Super Game Boy support though. Never knew about the SG-1000 version either, that port looks genuinely great. Also, happy birthday!

[@KorenLesthe]

Happy birthday !

[@RetroCore]

Thanks!

[@orderofmagnitude-TPATP]

I am so nerdy and sad that i know the music at the start of the vid is from space invaders 91 and its from the "moon" stage. Loved the music on that version!

[@RetroCore]

Technically it's from Space Invaders 90 as I was using the Japanese soundtrack 😋 But yeah, you are correct. Great tunes on that game.

[@Paul29Esx]

Happy birthday! A video of all the home micro clones would be very interesting I think.

[@RetroCore]

Yeah, I'm surprised about that. UFO came out in 1977 while Monster came out in 1978. I guess he thought UFO was too obvious?

[@RetroCore]

Thanks. I am thinking of covering some clones in a future video. 👍

[@xraymind]

Thanks for clearing up on "fact" that the aliens goes faster as more of them disappear from the screen. Been hearing whole time that it's bug that turn into a feature for the arcade version. When that only happens with the Atari ports.

[@nevanfr]

But aliens actually do go faster the fewer they are on all the port we can see here, apart for the Atari ones.

[@mightyfilm]

I'm wondering if the NEC Pepsi game is somehow a reference to the Pepsi Invaders game for the Atari 2600. The marketing promotional game made to advertise Coke, for those that haven't heard of it. Only with the companies switched to be pro-Pepsi, like someone found out about Pepsi Invaders and wanted a protest version.

[@RetroCore]

Could be a parody of that.

[@SpaceFractal-g2o]

on the Commodore 64, there was an INVADE-A-LOAD game, that should have invardred that damn Namco Loading patent, which was a prior art, but newer did. That game game first to feature a loading game. Actuelly its a cool Space Invarders game, of course not to been reviewed here as its not official.

[@DariusPowers]

Happy Birthday Mark. Enjoy your day whatever you get up to fella! 😀

[@RandomGamingDouchebag]

Wow interesting timing, i had recently picked up an NTSC release of the Gameboy release because of the interesting Super Gameboy compatibility. Supposedly this was done with expectations that they weren't going to do a worldwide release for the game but they did anyways a few years later.

[@thrillington2008]

I seen the cabinet in the wild in the 90s in my hometown in Virginia in a laundromat.

[@Horos_de_Vega]

To each its own: my fav is actually the 5200 version, Love that soundtrack!

Indeed. If we all liked the same thing it would be a very dull world.

[@zubiac]

My dad ran an arcade machine rental service in the 80s and 90s and we had the original table version of the game sitting for years in our basement as no one wanted to rent it. Our basement looked more like an enormous arcade at that time as it served as arcade repair center and as storage. I was a teen back then and was constantly "testing" repaired units :D I remember when we got our first NeoGeo cabinet. My dad was like "Look at this awesome thing!! it's basicely a console in a cabinet. I can swap games in minutes."

[@RetroCore]

That must have been so cool!

[@zubiac]

@@RetroCore it was. I single handedly broke an Operation Wolf arcade machine by playing it (secretly) too much. The weird force-feedback mechanism in the gun basicely crumbled to pieces. Our technician guy was so pissed off that he 'banned' me for months. lol

[@SpaceFractal-g2o]

There was 55 invaders. the faster speed was not based on position. but the cpu only drawn one invarder per frame. so more you got shoot down, lesser aliens its needs to draw and faster they became. Make sense in this game by not "optimize" it. Cool. There is still a arcade one near me.

[@KISSbestfan]

Since everybody wishes happy birthday, have my best wishes as well! Talk about retro! This is one of those games I considered retro originally, and pretty much a little has changed. After all games from early 90s are not retro at all. Right? Anyway I always loved the Super Gameboy version. For such a simple game devs went on and created something that really shown the power of Gameboy and Super Nintendo combined. Too bad not many games did it, and even if they had, we only got stuff like exclusive borders and colour palette changed mid game

[@dazsly]

Super famicom, sega versions. My local fair had this in the 80s! Who cant forget the sound effects.

[@smallmj2886]

My favourite is actually a clone. TI Invaders for the TI99/4A was really well done.

[@RetroCore]

That is a cool clone 👍

[@zanegandini5350]

This isn't a game I really like playing, but I can appreciate just how big of a deal it was at the time. My dad often cites this as an example of why he never wanted an Atari back in the day, as he was disappointed seeing how it was on his friend's VCS/2600 vs at the arcade. I'm surprised THIS is the game that made him think that, as there's plenty of other Atari conversions that fared worse.

[@RetroCore]

I guess the funky looking aliens on the Atari are off putting if yoh were really in to the Arcade game.

[@blutryforce762]

2:48 So, you're saying Space Invaders was almost going to be named after a Pink Lady song? That's my first time hearing that, I figured the devs would've named it after the song "UFO" instead. Space Invaders was more of it's time than I initially thought. Also, Happy Birthday!

[@TMS5100]

Ending summary - Atrai 2600! Yay!

[@daniel_lucio]

Hi Mark, I used to play the Space Invaders machine in the arcades here, manufactured by Taito do Brasil. However, I prefer the 2600 version. The sound of the marching gears is mesmerizing, as are the infinite number of game variations, such as the one where the enemies become invisible. I remember looking at these variations in the table in the manual and trying them out on the console was a bonus for me when I was a kid. By the way, there is an official port for the Atari 8-bit (big box), unlike the 5200.

[@RetroCore]

Thanks for sharing!👍

[@Gloryzuki]

10:02: *Fun fact:* There was actually (also) a reskin of the Atari 2600/VCS version of Space Invaders called Pepsi Invaders for the Coca-Cola company-- reportedly, only 5000 copies were only made.

[@RetroCore]

That could explain the parody on the NEC PC-9801.

[@HappySnoutHour]

I forgot about the reference this game had with Pink Lady. My theory is management changed it so they didn't get a cease & desist from either Victor, Yu Aku (who wrote the song) or JARSAC.

[@Arcee720]

Can you do a part two of space invaders ports?

There's a modern version for the ZX Spectrum +2a/+3 which is just a patched arcade ROM running natively. Imagine if that had been done in the 80s. These days, though, given we can play the original in lMame, I find the less accurate versions more interesting - especially the Atari 2600 with all the gameplay variations. Atari 5200 looked interesting, too.

[@RetroCore]

Really? Wow, that's very cool. Does it also sound right?

[@robqg]

@@RetroCore No, the AY rendition of some sounds are fairly different - hard to duplicate the wholly analog sounds I guess.

[@jasejj]

​@@robqg They've done the same on the CPC as well - in fact I think the Amstrad version was the earlier release. These machines were made for this sort of thing really - the Spectrum in particular has very similar graphics hardware, and while the arcade machine does have hardware scrolling technology this is fairly easily emulated on a faster Z80 CPU which does have some bit-rolling routines built-in which the 8080 lacked.

The US Game Boy version, with the hidden SNES version inside (playable on a Super Game Boy), seems to have sprites far closer to the arcade original than the Japanese release, I think it also come a couple years later.

[@lurkerrekrul]

What about Space Invaders for the Atari XL/XE line? Was that not an official port? Also, I'm confused by your claim that the Atari versions having the invaders speed up based on how many are left is a change from the arcade version. If you check the video at 1:50, you can clearly see the invaders speed up when you shoot the two in the center of the group, even though they are still at the same row of the screen. Likewise at 1:55, the remaining two invaders speed up immediately when you shoot the lowest one. It's brief because they hit the left side and drop down a row almost immediately, but it's there.

[@TimelordUK]

Why 60 FPS? Is that why my TV won't play this video properly? All the graphics are glitchy. The video plays fine on my phone, but not through my Xbox one onto my 720p TV. All other KZbin videos play fine. I'm confused

[@RetroCore]

No idea. I watched the video on my Series X at 1080p 60 with no issues. Also checked on my android phone without a problem.

[@TimelordUK]

@RetroCore thanks Mark. I've now noticed it on some other videos on different channels. It's so strange, some videos play fine and others don't. I don't understand what is going on. I've done a quick Google but still none the wiser. My favourite space invaders game was in the arcades. The one where you had to stop the enemy from beaming up cows. Was it called space invaders 97?

[@xmini-ul7je]

Like the arcade perfect ports that WILL be made for Snes (mostly Capcom's) using ALL the Snes capabilities, homebrewers will also test how far the Snes can be taken in terms of 3D without any chip, in order to see the REAL limitations, those bad 3D 90s games are not the norm, these homebrewers will also test about "superscaling" effects and more, all these without chips, fastrom (in the beginning) nor loadings, nor slowdowns, we'll see, but i really hope Capcom/Konami/etc will come up with those ports before the homebrewers will, like it should, officially licensed products is how things should be, AVE MARIA PURISSIMA, SINE LABE CONCEPTA, CHRISTUS VINCIT, CHRISTUS IMPERAT.
