It’s like a digital marriage made in outer space. In 1978, the seminal arcade video game Space Invaders—developed by Tomoshiro Nishikado and manufactured by Taito—was released. It was around this same time that watch brand Timex began offering their first digital watches. In homage to these two digital icons, Timex has introduced this watch—a special edition of their T80 style, featuring a face adorned with the colorful pixelated creatures of Space Invaders. The screen has a classic LCD charm that evokes memories of high school calculators. Space Invaders is represented in MoMA’s collection.

Why We Chose This

A design in MoMA's collection, Space Invaders was created in 1978 by Tomohiro Nishikado and grew out of what was already a rich arcade culture in Japan. When it was first released, the Japanese public was so captivated by Space Invaders that it led to a temporary nationwide shortage of 100-yen coins. Today the game enjoys enduring popularity and is a quintessential example of what makes video games important cultural artifacts and outstanding examples of interaction design.
