"The Space Invaders Invincible Collection provides the classic Space Invaders gameplay in a nicely-wrapped package, but not all of the included games are worthwhile and the price tag is a bit steep."

"An ideal title for retro video game lovers and an important step in the preservation of video games on current consoles. However, its price is indefensible considering that half of its releases are more than forty years old."
