Japanese Space Wars flyer at TAFA

Japanese Space Wars flyer at TAFA

This one was news to me. I was browsing The Arcade Flyer Archive and saw a flyer for the Taito version of Space Wars! I had no idea Space Wars made it over to Japan as a license. Maybe I need to re-read the story about the games creator, perhaps I missed something? (Read Tim Skelly’s History of Cinematronics and Vectorbeam over at dadgum) The license seems to have changed hands a few times so perhaps one of the final owners sold the rights to Taito?
