Space Invaders Impossible to beat, something isnt right!?!

We have a Space Invaders Deluxe cab with Space Invaders board set in it. We got an extra board set and we used one of our old ones with one of the different set and it worked. Fired right up. I found space invaders was a lot harder than I remember, you have to hit the aliens 3 times with their arms/legs (what ever they were meant to be) while they are open. After visiting with a fellow arcade collector, I found his space invaders arcade was a walk through and seemed SO much easier. There is no dip switch for difficulty, so I am wondering if this is something someone else has ever encountered, because our arcade works, but it is definitely not right.
 
Are you sure it's not a Deluxe boardset? On those they split in half when you shoot them, so you have to shoot them three times. It'll say Space Invaders Part II on the title screen...
 
You may have one of the many hacked ROM variants... there are tons of different ones out there. I'd personally grab a Braze multi kit, which will give you the normal ROMs, plus several other games (Lunar Rescue is my favorite). It also has a really good self-test, which will help pinpoint if you do have a board problem.

You can grab it from High Score Saves, Arcadeshop, Mike's Arcade, etc.
