The boffins over at Taito Japan are revamping the Space Invaders game with a new twist on the classic. This time, you’re not on defense, instead you get to control the invaders yourself and serve up some Alien pay back.

Space Invaders Get Even puts you in command of up to 300 individual pixelated aliens using the Wii-mote and Nunchuk controllers. With the Nunchuck, you direct a UFO to drop hundreds of aliens on forest, city and military targets, destroying everything in sight. You’ll be able to command the invaders to swarm and group in a variety of attack formations.

Looks pretty awesome if you ask me. I hope the Space Invader aliens don’t team up with the Galaga aliens.

Here’s some biblical art I can get behind. All the classic video game characters in the Last Supper. But DK as Jesus?

Some guy made an awesome Space Invaders coffee table and is now selling it on Craigslist for $450.

Bad stuff can go down when you combine Space Invaders and coffee. Like in the 80’s when I stayed awake for 2 days and beat the high score. When the sun came out on the second day, some guy thought he was helping by leaning against the machine. I was so hopped up on caffeine, I accidentally slammed a quarter through his skull as I let out a girlly scream and then quietly resumed my game. The police thought it best that I stop soon after that.

Worlds collide. Your crotch against 8-bit invaders. Try not to soil yourself as you shoot at the alien armada.

These boxer shorts are not going to win you a real live woman, but you won’t need one. Your crotch rocket will be scoring hits on these pixellated aliens with every boner. They are snug-fitting and 95% cotton. They’ll cost you £18 a pair.

Jesus, crotch fun is expensive. The dude pictured is obviously packing a huge missile too. Game over man!

You know we love retro arcade games here at the Therapy. To all my groupies: If I see you get out of the pool and wrap a Space Invaders towel around you, you will have a geek on your hands trying to seduce you.

They come in the 3 varities shown. You can get them in mid-late June 2008 at $19.90 per towel.

Yes. More retro gaming towels please.

These cupcake photos have been zinging across the web and making geeks like me hungry. These are true retro arcade works of art. They make me want to play vintage games while munching away. They were created by hello naomi and arranged to look just like the game screen.

Clearly I need me a new Betty Crocker in the kitchen. I would ask my wife to make these, but I don’t fancy a punch to my face.

When plain sneakers don’t quite profess your love of retro arcade goodness, these Pac-Man sneakers will kick it up a notch. Great for chasing blue ghosts.

These hand-painted Pac-Man shoes turned up recently in a Flickr photostream from someone using the name thekalaka. No one seems to know for sure if they’re for sale or not, but thekalaka.com seems to be a Brasilian boutique that specializes in urban wear. If anyone has any info, let us know.

Even if you can’t buy them, you can admire them. Something about thee feeds the inner geek and makes us happy.

If I had a quarter for every quarter I put into the Space Invaders arcade game, I would be a rich man today. At the very least, able to afford the actual machine.

Here’s a great door mat sure to lure fellow geeks to your house and hopefully not scare away the opposite sex when they see what a geek you are.

When stepped on, the invaders start animating across the top of the door mat. It runs off of 4 AAA Batteries and will cost you $49.99.
