"That man is playing Galaga... well, he's playing a YouTube video of the MSX port..."

As it turns out, in "The Avengers"... it was the MSX port of Galaga. (I'm sure a few of you never heard of the MSX, but I'm sure all of you could tell it was a port.)

... and they copied a YouTube video at that.

As I'm sure you guessed, I knew all along it wasn't the real Galaga and I could tell it was gonna be some weird port. Hadn't figured on the YouTube copying.

Thanks to "Vincent van Dam" and "LeandroCorreia" of msx.org forum for the discovery.

YouTube at the exact time as in Avengers, belonging to YouTube member "zhouluyi":

More info on the MSX:

The YouTube video is, of course, probably from an emulator, but I'm not sure.

Thanks to hap for the head's up.
