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!

Real Boxing and Bright coming to PS Vita from Vivid

Vivid is probably best known to PlayStation games as the company that gave us Speedball 2 on the PSP as a mini release, and it has plenty more in the pipe.

But not just a port, the visual quality has been significantly boosted according to the developers, it should be out by the end of the year.


Also coming the Vita's way is Bright, about which we know nothing, but from the image, I'd suggest it might be a light-based puzzle game of some kind.


The Polish-based company has just got a bunch of cash, listing on the Warsaw stock market and looks like it has big plans ahead. More news when we get it, check out their site for Vivid's other games.
