Space Invaders (スペースインベーダー Supēsu Inbēdā?) é um jogo de videogame de arcade desenhado por Tomohiro Nishikado e lançado em 1978. Foi originalmente construído pela Taito Corporation e um tempo depois foi licenciado para produção nos Estados Unidos pela Midway Games. Space Invaders foi um dos primeiros jogos de tiro com gráfico bidimensional. O objetivo é destruir ondas de naves com uma espaçonave humana para ganhar o maior número de pontos possível. Para construir o jogo, Nishikado se inspirou na mídia popular, como A Guerra dos Mundos e Star Wars. Apesar de seus controles simples comparados com os jogos de hoje, este jogo ajudou a expandir a indústria de video game para uma indústria mundial. Quando o jogo foi primeiramente lançado, ele fez muito sucesso virando popular.
