Lineup For Space Invaders: Invincible Collection On Switch Is Revealed

I wish it would have Extreme 1 and 2!

Edit: Whaaaaaaat?! I got half my wish! It's just too bad Extreme 2 isn't in the collection!

@Giygas_95 Yeah, Extreme was awesome!

@Jayenkai I think Infinity Gene would be a good game to include also.

"All right. It's Saturday night, I have no date, a two-liter bottle of Shasta and my all-Rush mixtape... Let's rock."

Only six games?
Wow, remember the days when compilations were much bigger?
I really hoped we would see Space Invaders 95 again, but that looks very unlikely now.

I'm definitely looking forward to this. I hope they'll include at least one of the modern Games, Extreme, Infinity Gene or Get Even.

I'd like to see Majestic Twelve, as well as a super longshot port of Space Invaders Extreme 2.

And what are the games? Is the DS space invaders on it?

I actually emailed Taito twice about porting over Space Invaders Extreme and Extreme 2 to the Switch, so hopefully, they are listening! Fingers crossed that these are included in this collection!!!

2600 port is the best for me, even over the arcade. Hope its there

I can't wait for this.

I hope the original arcade is there. I missed some kind of celebration of the 40th anniversary of a so important game last year. Not even one. I wasn't really asking more than an Arcade Archives Space Invaders, but no. We'll have to see which games it includes and if it comes with a nice physical version.

I'm a sucker in Space Invaders but I'll try to rack my score up again on this one. The last time I play a Space Invaders was the Game Boy port.

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA PLEASE!!!

hoping for Lunar Loonies. that game is a classic

If it has Return of the Invaders, i am sold. That's my favorite Invaders game and i dumped a ridiculous amount of quarters into that game back in the summer of '86.

Damn i'm old. XD

@RetroTyGuy You are defeated. Instead of shooting where I was, you should have shot at where I was going to be.

Since the Wii Shop Channel is down, it would be nice to see Space Invaders Strike Back on there as well.

@Elvie It's called "Space Invaders Get Even," but yes I agree it would be a nice choice, although not very likely.

@BulbasaurusRex @Elvie
I also really liked Get Even, i'm still bitter about the game not getting the physical release that got originally announced.

Great. Good thing I never bought Extreme (because I didn't find it at a reasonable (to me) price). Now we want to know when in the West and if there's going to be a physical version.

With Extreme included, if priced reasonably, will buy for sure!

@joey302 They will most likely release it in other regions as well, otherwise you can still import it from the JP eShop.

@sanderev true but i hope for a western release just the same 😉 and PHYSICAL lol

Worth it for ‘91 alone.....

@Nagi_Nagisa yeah, this gen has become the less is less generation..... 6 games of this size is in all honesty an insult

I'm sure I'll be out of luck, but I wish I could play this on there.

MAME doesn't do the backdrop justice. It's luminescent and isn't just flat cardboard. There's different pieces to it to provide depth, such as the planet surface.

Great collection I also love space invaders 95.

@Nagi_Nagisa It's only six probably because we got Extreme. I also kinda thought that Space Raiders would of been cool

Hmmm, no Infinity Gene?

I hope Space Invaders Extreme is a marginally improved version of the Steam release. The Steam version has potential, but they refuse to update it. If this ends up being a far better version of Space Invaders Extreme for Steam, it will be my favorite version. Currently, the DS version is my favorite.

@brunojenso Guess not...

They should have made a new Taito collection to put Space Cyclone into; not a Space Invaders collection. It has been over a decade since we've seen a Taito collection.

@Moroboshi876 You can get the DS version for like 5 bucks.

@Giygas_95 They don't have a version of SIE2 that would be on there. The first game is most likely the Steam version, which I hope to God it ain't... Unless Taito polishes it BIG TIME!

How do they not get in Space Invaders ‘95? That’s the only game I’d have wanted.

@NinChocolate These are only the first six. More will be revealed over time.

@Bermanator Not in Europe, and it's even more expensive than I thought, just checked it. Anyway now that the collection is announced, I'll get it for the Switch.

@Moroboshi876 Ok.

@brunojenso Actually; read GoNintendo's article. They say there will be more. These are only the first six to be revealed.

@Jayenkai Donchya mean EXTREME?

@retro_player_22 You missed out on Extreme, Extreme 2, the Activision version, the GBA port of the Activision version, and Infinity Gene.

@Giygas_95 It seems like Space Invaders 64 is also missing.

Put me in the "Extreme 2" camp. I blind-bought that during the DS era and had some fun with it.

And why do they need until 2020 to develop such basic games?

But in all seriousness, I hope there will be a physical release.

@EmirParkreiner @BulbasaurusRex They really should. Get Even was super fun and isn't available on any platform other than Wii Ware...the extra ships were a lot of fun too.

Guys, they are announcing more games later.

@BulbasaurusRex Yeah, I remembered when I was at work today that the title is "Space Invaders Get Even" and that someone was going to point that out.

I must have had Star Wars on my mind for some reason.

Oh my gooooooooooooooooooooooooood this is amazing, finally a physical of DX. That game is incredible.

Space Invaders mmm okay, yeah sure we've all played it b4 but cmon now it's 2019, surely we shud just let sleeping dogs lie...

That would be a day one purchase for me. Hope it comes out in Europe!

How do I get it if I am in Canada?

@Carl2019 You could just import it from Amazon, just change country to Japan and Pre-Order. They don't charge until shipment. It's easier and cheaper than importing from Play-Asia, at least from where I am.
