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 . After a post-event, well earned, break, he's kindly given us a lot of detail about the project and some new images of the unit to share.  His story mirrors mine somewhat, Vectrex represents a glowing, unaffordable, obelisk of gaming power from our youth! But he's had the energy and drive to do something about it, and met the right people to get the job done!  What first got you interested in Vectrex and what spawned the idea of a Mini version? I’ve always been passionate about retro-gaming, but my first love was computers rather than consoles — the ZX81, then the Commodore 128.

Vita Rumour Roundup: Battle Royale, Assassin's Creed 3, Castlevania and more

Several snippets are doing the rounds right now that suggests a few corkers are headed the PS Vita's way.

Next up is word that Castlevania: Lords of Shadow might also be headed to the Vita via Konami, although that's the vaguest use of the word "rumour" going on in the source article. Finally, it looks like the invites for the LittleBigPlanet Vita beta are going out, so keep an eye on your in-boxes.
