Do You Have a nice Space Invaders in Your Arcade?

There is one sitting in my garage. It is in nice condition, complete with some extra boards, not working, and in my way. I have offered it to the local guys for $50 but I am willing to negotiate if someone wants to come and get it!

Awwwww, maaaaannnn! :(

I know some people in Missouri... Hmmmm. (Starts calling people)

Pics? :D
 
I have a deluxe. I've had it since 1988 and if I had to keep 1 game this would be on the short list. It would have been the 1 game but I have just picked up an Omega Race and now it would be a toss up.

If you have a choice between SI and SID I would go for the SID. SID has some interesting skill shots w/ bonus that SI doesn't have. As far as not getting played, mine gets played quite a bit. It is one of the few deceptively easy games. It is fun to watch people determined to get off the first wave..

So in conclusion and for John, Space Invaders Deluxe > Space Invaders > Dragon Spirit

hahhaha! Hey, DS was pretty much free. You would have taken it too!
 
I had a SI and it wasn't in real bad shape. It had a monitor problem and I never did get it working. I didn't pay acutal money for it (worked for it) and I got $100 selling it broken.
 
Not the greatest condition... at least I put the repro CPO on:D

Hey X, we've got the same 3 games together.

None of my Missouri friends are close, or want to help me... :rolleyes:

That's probably a good thing, though. I still have a Burgertime in OKC I need to pick up at some point...
 
Well, hopefully this isn't crapping on Phet's thread - but in addition to your pictures (or not) post your high score (either SI and/or SID).
 
I agree - that Taito is awesome.

I always thought the PCBs were different for Midway vs. Taito - but I don't see a different set of high-scores on Win Galaxies. Are they identical as far as they are concerned?

Its been a LONG time - I think I remember getting ~30K on SID BITD, I can't imagine 400K+.
 
Never really liked the game but no self respecting classic arcade collector would be caught without one.
