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?

Great Edo Blacksmith site opens up its forge

The official website has gone live for Nippon Ichi's Great Edo Blacksmith. And all it has to show for all that patient waiting is a logo, until next week. At least we've seen the lovely ladies, and we've found out about the basics of the game through those mag scans.

Guess the magazines articles have to have their exclusivity first, which seems rather quaint. Still, if you want something to do right now, Bandai Namco's Godzilla site has also gone live today (only for PS3, but hey, its Godzilla). Also update is NIS's own True God Fashion site, an update of a PSP horror game coming in August.


Hopefully someone will tell NIS that there's no capital S in 'BlackSmith', but as long as we get a compelling role-player out of it, I'm not really that worried. Will the lady-bothering elements (its a good job my Twitter following is 92% male) put you off? Guess they'll be toned down for any western release, as with Criminal Girls.
