Why am I qualified to write this review,

The systems I own include, Atari 400, Atari 2600, Atari 5200, Atari 7800, Atari Lynx, NES, SNES, N64, Gamecube, Wii, Wii U, Gameboy, Gameboy Color, Gameboy advance, DS, 3DS, Sega Genesis, Sega Saturn, Sega Dreamcast, and the Sega Gamegear.

Fixed shooters are my favorite genre of video games. I own many fixed shooters including many Galaga and Galaxian ports. This is not my favorite Galaxian port. My favorite is on the Dreamcast under Namco Museum. This game is in my top ten list for the Atari 5200. It is probably number 4 or 5. This game is my 2nd favorite Atari 5200 shooter behind Super Cobra. This game is one of the few games on the 5200 that the controller does not hold you back. The controller still feels weird in your hands but it will not wobble on you while you are playing this game if you keep your controller in good shape. Finding games on the 5200 that are worth playing is a challenge, this is one of them.

Pros:
Decent controls considering this system is the 5200.
Similar to the arcade graphics.
2-Player
Very affordable.

Cons:
Button mashing will break the controller after awhile.
Never to be played with the Trak-Ball.
One of the hardest ports of this game.(This may be a Pro to those who like a challenge)
Thumb hurts after awhile.

Tips and Tricks:
Hold the controller sideways for a better feel while playing.
If you are playing two player always try to go first(:
Playing this game facing a away from the TV and using a friend as guide is really fun.
