It'd be more fitting with Duck Hunt.

The game in the life pictures is Space Invaders, the last picture is of the game Galaga

Galaga, I was going to say the same thing. I was trying to remember the Galaga easter egg that made you invincible.

First off, no, that's not Galaga in the last pic... it's a game LIKE Galaga, but not quite... not sure which one it is, but I spent enough quarterst that I could've bought a CAR or two on Galaga... unless it's a European version, that's not it...

Second, @ nat .... the whole POINT was to get you to think Duck Hunt... and then, of course, it's NOT... (sorry, but DUH!)...

Third, the easter egg in Galaga (didn't make you invincible, but it made them not shoot at you) was to let the last ship that came onto the first (or second) screen live until everyone else was dead, then wait until he'd came down twice without shooting at you... then kill him on the second run...

Peace...
