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.

Myth Busters: There are no original games for the PS Vita

Several comments and many tweets are saying there are no original games for the PS Vita. Obviously, that's not true but just so you can correct these people and show them the error of their ways, here's a list of the PS Vita's all-original titles [no sequels (Namco), reused IP (Little King's Story), dragging out ancient games (True Night of the Kamaitachi) or suchlike].



Lord of Apocalypse - unique for Vita
  • Gravity Daze
  • Army Corps of Hell
  • Reality Fighters
  • Sumioni
  • Lord of Apocalypse
  • Ragnarok Odyssey
  • AR Combat
  • Little Deviants
  • Dragon's Crown
  • Ruin

Sure, out of the 80-odd announced games, its not a huge number and a couple are being co-developed for the PS3. Also, some of them probably won't head west, but if some spotty oik insists there's no new games coming out for it. First show him this list, then punch him!
