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 .

MechRunner gets closer to a Vita version

One of my favourite looking Kickstarter backed projects from 2014 is getting closer to the finish line. Sure, these things take longer than everyone expects, but the MechRunner team, SparkPlug Games, updated backers with news of improvements.

We want the boss fights in the sewer and industrial regions to be epic, so we're doing our best to make them fun and memorable.
