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. I only really discovered the console world in the late 90s, which is when I got my very first Vectrex.

Sony's Gamescom Vita titles unveiled

German site PlayFront seems to have got its hands on an invite to Sony's press event at Gamescom next month, and it mentions several Vita titles in the list, plus two new unannounced games.

- Call of Duty: Declassified (PS Vita)
- Soul Sacrifice (PS Vita)
- Dust 514 app (PS Vita)
- LittleBigPlanet (PS Vita)
- PlayStation AllStars: Battle Royale (PS3 + PS Vita)
- Assassin's Creed 3 (PS3 and PS Vita)
- The Unfinished Swan (PS3)
- The Last of Us (PS3)
- Wonder Book: A Book of Spells (PS3)

With Capcom also promising big things at the event, could the middle of August be the time when the Vita really gets going? Of course, PlayFront could just be making an educated guess, there's no photo of the invite, but I'd buy into this. Killzone has been shown off, but not seen beyond the Vita's launch so could be one title. The other is anyone's guess.
