Space Invaders: The Original Game

Space Invaders DX is a 1993 fixed shooter video game developed and published by Taito for Japanese arcades. It is the fifth entry in the long-running Space Invaders series, and was later ported to several consoles including the Super Famicom, PC Engine Super CD, and Sega Saturn; several of these conversions use the name Space Invaders: The Original Game. The player assumes control of a laser base that must fend off waves of incoming enemies, who march down in formation towards the bottom of the screen. DX contains four variations of the original Space Invaders, in addition to a multiplayer mode and a "Parody Mode" that replaces the characters with those from other Taito franchises.
