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.

Amazon UK's Black Friday PS Vita deal hits tonight

Get ready for it... Amazon will be throwing a PS Vita deal into the Black Friday sales this evening, a smidge before 9:00 PM. If you haven't got one yet, this will be the deal to get, perhaps similar to the U.S. Assassin Creed Bundle with free PS+ 3 months deal (making it a five game bundle in effect).

The UK deal is currently hidden, its the last one on the PC & Video Games list....

There haven't been any Vita games in the sale (that I've noticed) despite the likes of the Sonic All-Stars being discounted on Xbox and PS3. Keep checking though. I know I'm preaching largely to the converted here, but if a friend has expressed an interest in the Vita nudge them this way!

UPDATE: Okay, the deal was a PS3, PS Vita and PlayStation All-Stars for £329 which was pretty decent, it sold out in seconds, and I'll shout if I see it come round again.
