Who
Space Invaders (TAITO, 1978)
When
1981
In 1981, George Foulkes, the Labour MP for Ayrshire South, UK, tabled a private members’ bill to have Space Invaders banned, citing a connection between video-gaming and child “deviancy”. The “Control of Space Invaders (and other Electronic Games)” bill was debated for 22 minutes before being narrowly defeated by 114 votes to 94.
