Toshihiro Nishikado (西角友宏 Nishikado Toshihiro?) is a Japanese video game developer. He is known as the creator of the video game Space Invaders, released to the public in 1978 by the Taito Corporation of Japan.

Originally Nishikado wanted to use tanks in Space Invaders, but had problems making them move smoothly due to the limited computing power at the time. Space Invaders was based on Intel's 8 bit 8080 microprocessor.
