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? I’ve always been passionate about retro-gaming, but my first love was computers rather than consoles — the ZX81, then the Commodore 128.

PSP Update Live, Yay! PSN Store Next Week, Boo!

So, the PSP's long awaited update is finally here. When installed it tells you to use your PS3 (why do Sony always assume PSP owners will have a PS3?) or PC to log in and change your password.



The bad news is that this is Sony is now saying the store won't be up until the end of the month AKA next Tuesday, blaming speculation for the stories about the store coming back today. Fairly sure Sony mentioned the 24th somewhere, but hey what's another week after this mayhem?

Once you enter your existing details on the site, you get the same message that PS3 users have suffered with, that an email will be sent to your account within 24 hours. We'll see how long that takes.

[UPDATE] - Yay, only took about ten minutes. You then go through the password reset system and can then update your card details (because you did cancel yours like a careful consumer didn't you?). Now, there is just the wait until the store comes back up... before it instantly crashes again under the demand.
