Following the release of Bubble Bobble at the end of December, Hamster has officially announced its first Arcade Archives release for 2023.
This time it’s Namco’s classic arcade space shooter Galaga. This title was first released in 1981 and is a sequel to his 1979 Galaxian (previously released on the eShop last November). In this follow-up, your job is to shoot all the aliens in sight again.
“‘Arcade Archives Galaga’ is now available. A masterpiece of a shooting game released by Namco in 1981. The 2023 ACA will open at Galaga! Please enjoy it.”
Like all other entries in the Hamster’s Arcade Archives series, this one is a ‘true’ recreation of the classic arcade experience. It comes with a modern extension that includes additional settings that allow players to fiddle with difficulty, display type, and more. Below is a screenshot from Nintendo’s official website.
Get 7.99 USD or your local equivalent back when you go live in the eShop. Are you excited about this? What other classics does Hamster want him to bring back in 2023? Let us know in the comments.
