[Epoch](/source/Epoch_Co.) released the Japan-exclusive [TV Vader](/source/TV_Vader) in 1980, which was a Space Invaders clone that could be played at home.

*[Space Invaders](/source/Space_Invaders)* is a [fixed shooter](/source/Fixed_shooter) [video game](/source/Video_game) released in 1978 by [Taito](/source/Taito_Corporation). It was designed by [Tomohiro Nishikado](/source/Tomohiro_Nishikado), who was inspired by other media such as *[Breakout](/source/Breakout_(video_game))*, *[The War of the Worlds](/source/The_War_of_the_Worlds)* and *[Star Wars](/source/Star_Wars)*.[1] It is one of the forerunners of modern video gaming and helped expand the [video game industry](/source/Video_game_industry) from a novelty to a global industry.[2][3] It was first released as an [arcade game](/source/Arcade_game) and later remade on different platforms; re-releases include [ported](/source/Porting) and updated versions. Ported versions generally feature different graphics and additional gameplay options, including moving defense bunkers, zigzag shots, invisible aliens, and [two-player](/source/Multiplayer_video_game) modes.[4] *Space Invaders* is one of the [highest-grossing video game franchises](/source/List_of_highest-grossing_media_franchises) of all time.

Taito released numerous sequels and spin-offs, many of which have also been remade on multiple platforms, including home consoles and handheld devices. Follow up titles are typically released in celebration of the original's anniversary. The first sequels were primarily released in arcades, while later titles were released on portable devices. Sequels often added [power-ups](/source/Power-up) and incorporated new gameplay mechanics—like [three-dimensional](/source/3D_computer_graphics) playing fields, [bosses](/source/Boss_(video_gaming)), and [rhythm-action](/source/Rhythm_game)—to the original's design.[5] Most titles were released internationally, though some are exclusive to select regions. The games have received different receptions: the [Atari 2600](/source/Atari_2600) port of the original became the video game industry's first "[killer app](/source/Killer_application)", while some sequels were regarded as insignificant updates.[4][6] *Space Invaders* and several of its arcade sequels are often included in video game compilations released by Taito.

It inspired numerous other games.[7] Many companies created [clones](/source/Video_game_clone) that copied its gameplay, with more than a hundred *Space Invaders* clones released for various platforms by the early 1980s (such as *[Super Invader](/source/Super_Invader_(video_game))* and *[TI Invaders](/source/TI_Invaders)*).[8][9] Others built upon the original's gameplay (such as the [*Galaxian* franchise](/source/List_of_Galaxian_video_games)). A live-action film adaptation is in development.[*[citation needed](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed)*]
