1980 Midway Space Invaders Deluxe Upright Arcade Machine

A good working all original survivor machine. Cabinet is very solid and in great condition. Control panel has a few cigarette burns but the controls work great. 100% all original machine.

The basic mechanics of play for the Space Invaders genre is simple: move your laser base left or right along the bottom of the screen and shoot the endless waves of aliens descending towards you. Their relentless march quickens as fewer and fewer aliens (each worth 30, 20 or 10 points, depending which type it is) remain. In this game, the best defense is a good offense -- your only other protection being four stationary shields which slowly get blown away by both you and the invaders. Besides aliens, you can also target the occasional flying saucer which traverses the top of the screen.
