Oh My God!!! I did not even know this old arcade classic had been released for NES until I found it on Vizzed...

I know that the admins prefer reviews to be broken down into sections... But there is not really any point for this one... Still, Lets try and just go for it...

Graphics - Perfect! More or less the very same as the arcade - Yes they are basic but they did not need to be fancy back in the 1970's, the game just had to have that "One more play" factor. Its a fancy Space Invaders! So don't expect anything special...

Sound - Once again, It's a more or less perfect adaption of the Arcade - That may not sound like much, but given some of the poor sound on games that had a far higher budget, getting a near perfect adaption of Arcade Sound for the NES was amazing for its time!

Story - What Story? Its Advanced Space Invaders... You do not need a story!

Addictiveness - Most notably a "One More Game" factor, Anyone who played this in the arcades will remember how it stole all our pocket money... That same aspect has transferred well to the NES Port, though I have to be honest - I have not played long enough to know if there are continues (A lack of them could be a real pain in the butt!)

Depth - No Depth! There are some nice bonus rounds to break up the monotony, but this game is just a very basic formula.

Difficulty - While not the most difficult game in the world, it can have its moments. On occasion, your ship can get captured costing you a life, but if you manage to shoot the alien that captured your ship, then you can get increased firepower...

Sounds easy? Nope! Actually planning for this is near impossible - And most of the time it will happen more by luck than judgement.

As a near perfect arcade conversion, there is little more to say other than if you are a proper old school retro gamer (Like me! The kind who remember having to actually go out and see sunlight to play a Video Game... Either that or play PONG) then you are going to be in HEAVEN!
