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.

Killzone Mercenary lands at No.8 in the all formats chart

This is not a drill, a real, exclusive, PS Vita game has made it into the top 10. Congratulations to the Guerilla Cambridge team and Sony for proving that a Vita game can sell in the UK. Technically, there's two games as Rayman Legends arrived on the Vita too, but that multi-format title didn't manage to outsell the Killzone release.

1 Saints Row 4
2 Total War: Rome II
3 Diablo III
4 Splinter Cell: Blacklist
5 Disney Infinity
6 Minecraft Xbox 360
7 Payday 2
8 Killzone: Mercenary
9 Rayman Legends
10 Farming Simulator

Naturally, those two games shoot straight to the top of the Vita chart (provided by ChartTrack, who still don't count digital sales, so should quit while they're behind).

1 new KILLZONE: MERCENARY SONY COMPUTER ENT. - 1
2 new RAYMAN LEGENDS UBISOFT - 1
3 ASSASSIN'S CREED III LIBERATION UBISOFT 2 45
4 FIFA 13 EA SPORTS 1 50
5 NEED FOR SPEED MOST WANTED EA GAMES 3 45
