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 it looks like the Vita might get another round of Kat's adventures. Comments from Director Keiichiro Toyama are that "he'll do his best on the sequel, but it’s a secret,” when discussing his next title.



Hopefully we'll visit whole new cities rather than be revisiting the same old places, and they'll be able to boost the colour palette a little to make it feel like a new game, not that the original isn't a thing of grace and beauty.
