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?

Guardians of the Galaxy landing on Disney's Infinity 2.0

Not too sure about this Infinity stuff now, especially since the blink-and-miss-it E3 announce, and Sony's history of making promises it can't keep. Now, Sony don't mention the Vita in their own blog post, which is rather alarming. Also, while I know it is not exactly a gaming bible, the new Argos catalogue makes no mention of a Vita version of DI2. Maybe its out there somewhere, but if stores don't know about it, why should buyers care?

Anyway, assuming it is in the works, the flavour-of-the-month Guardians of the Galaxy will be making an appearance for the figures-cum-game experience. It features Star-Lord and Gamora in the Guardians of the Galaxy Play Set, and you’re also going to have the option to pick up Drax, Groot, and Rocket as singles at launch.
