Galaga Fun Facts

He practiced for two months and the Galaga arcade unit makes two appearances in the film. Additionally, the "Challenging Stage" jingle can also be heard in a later, unrelated scene in the same film.
  • Galaga is actually the sequel to Galaxian.
  • The current world record for classic Galaga is 15,999,990 points.
