Original Gameboy version developed by Taito in 1990.  Reprogrammed for the Super Game Boy by Taito and published in the U.S. by Nintendo in 1994.  When accessed through the Super Game Boy, two modes are available.  There is the Super Game Boy enhanced mode of the original Game Boy version, but the game also contains a full Super Nintendo program that is identical to the SNES entry below.

In 1996, John Dendzila published the first new game for the Vectrex since 1984.  A tribute to Space Invaders, Vector Vaders attempted to capture the multi alien mayhem found in all conversions.  However, limitations on how many images the vector system could draw caused a shimmering slowdown effect.  Dendzila remade the game in a simpler, yet more playable fashion as Vector Vaders Remix, contained in his Vecmania compilation cart, which is the first 64K Vectrex cart.
