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?

Gundam Breaker 3 dominates in Japan

Its all go in this week's Japanese Media Create chart with a frenzy of new entries. Gundam Breaker 3 is top for the Vita with a fraction under 75,000 sales. That beats the PS4 version by about 8,000 sales, pretty impressive considering the big-screen version seems substantially shinier.

Atelier Shallie creeps in at No. 4 with a lightweight 20K sales with Wonderfuly Party at No. 6 on 13.5K. As a footnote, Kan Colle Kai is now over the 200,000 mark including digital sales according to the publisher's Twitter. Sounds like the game still needs a lot of work though.

On the hardware side, the new Vita starter kits had a modest impact on sales, up to just under 30,000 for the week.


Elsewhere in the latest Famitsu reviews, Digimon World: Next Order top scored scored 8/8/9/8, which suggests hot sales for the reinvigorated series.
