Hi Bryan,

Lol! I have to admit that was my very favorite part of Space Invaders.
I would often times kill my ship just to hear that farting noise.

Cheers!

Just as a note,

the version of Space Invaders on the Atari Flashback 4 is actually the 
arcade version rather than the 2600 version in case anyone is interested.

Hi Dark,

Yeah, I am pretty sure there were color variations of the game out
there, and I believe that was the main difference between the Atari
2600 and Atari 7800 versions. Plus keep in mind there were two
different Atari 2600's released. There was the original 2600 consoles
from the early 80's and there was a much newer Atari 2600 that came
out in the late 80's along side the 7800models.  So it is entirely
possible yours was a later edition of Space Invaders as they did
release updated versions of their 2600 catalog before going under.

Cheers!

Hi Tom.

Wow! I bet original space invaders on a 78 inch projector was cool. I
currently have my snes, Pc and gamecube plugged into a 42 inch flatscreen,
which is pretty awsome after years of playing on standard sized tv 
screens,


but I'm still jealous! :D.

Back when we had the atari 2600 we were on a 15 inch tv, so no, I don't
imagine the invaders were very clear.

I also however do wonder if there was a different version of space 
invaders.


The one we had on the Atari 2600 had the invaders in rows and columns, but
if I remember rightly the invaders were yellow, and the shields between 
you


and them were orange while your gun was green. it also had a two player
option with one green gun and one purple gun.

I have played a version with red invaders and blue shields on one of those
multi game consoles that have hundreds of games on one machine and you 
just


plug into the tv.

I suppose though just like Packman and several other games at the time,
there were various different versions of space invaders around and it's
entirely possible that the first one I played wasn't the original.

All the best,

Dark.
