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!

On the hardware front, the Vita sells just over 4,000 for about the trillionth straight week. I'm pretty sure someone at Sony is being sent around to buy stock up from the stores, that Sony then push back into the channel creating some twisted cycle of sales purgatory.


Over in Famitsu land, a couple of Vita titles get reviewed, with the boob fest of OLZ doing suspiciously well.
