The first home port of Namcos classic, and unfortunately not a very good one. Still recognisable as Galaga, but stipped down to the point where I've seen more depth from Atari 2600 games. No challenge stages, no enemy capturing, and each level is exactly the same with the only difference being an increase in speed and aggression from the enemy ships. This was almost certainly done to fit on a smaller 16kb cartridge, but is still disappointing regardless. Check out the MSX port to see what the SG-1000 version should've looked like...

Recorded from an NTSC-J Master System via an EasyCap capture device. As a result, the colours look different from a 'proper' SG-1000 so please bear this in mind.

Enjoy ^_^
