Vectrex Mini interview - David Oghia talks up the nostalgic vector powerhouse

Having been wowed by the news of the Vectrex Mini at Gamescom , I rushed off some questions to VectrexOn's main man  David Oghia .

Ninjamurai: Slashing its Way to PSP Minis

Irish developer Open Emotion Studios have a corking looking game out on PSN that brings back all kinds of Kung Fu Master and Shinobi memories (oddly some Green Beret in there too). The player is Ninjamurai, the offspring of a samurai and a ninja, which is a great set of genetics to have.






A highly-stylised platform slasher with some powerful characters to meet and guide the hero along the way, with the Black Armor as your ultimate nemesis. Can't wait to give it a go, its on the EU store now at £2.49 and coming to the US in July.
