Delikatessen Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 There's a pizza place down the road, and its owner just bought a Galaga arcade machine. No, not one of the newer ones with loads of other games on it, but an actual, vintage arcade machine straight from '82. It's just for show because it's not operational, but when I saw it I remembered playing it a long time ago as a kid sometime in the early 90s. Does anybody remember this game?

luthienanarion Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 Top-down scrolling shooter in space, where you get tractor-beamed into another ship for the power-up that lets you use two ships side-by-side? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lisnpuppy Posted November 12, 2011 Share Posted November 12, 2011 I remember playing the one from 1982....*cough* My Dad and I would run down the hill to pick stuff up at the 7-11 and we would always play a few rounds. Ah...good times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Illiad86 Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 Haha our gyro joint has the original Galaga arcade machine too :) Only a quarter to play! I used to have it on my Atari Collection for the Playstation 1. My dad and I would play it all the time, along with Gauntlet and Klax (think it was called that). Fun times Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RitualBlack Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 I have galaga on my NES :biggrin: . I think its just one of those games that everyone has played, be it in an arcade, NES, classic game pack or even on an emulator. Really addicting game, may have to dust it off one of these days and hope it still works :laugh: . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChuckFinly Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 (edited) When I lived somewhere a long time ago, there was this mom and pop joint that had an arcade version. EpicIn my personal opinion, Galaga = King of the Arcades! Too bad they don't make games like that anymore :sad: Edited January 29, 2012 by ChuckFinly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
