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?

Little King to reign in March

Konami's Little King Story for the Vita will launch in Japan on the 29 March, as a full sequel to the Wii original. It will be available in a box and as a slightly cheaper download

This is the story of the boy king to rule this country. One day, a ball was being held at the castle .... Then suddenly, with the emergence of monsters in the castle, roar.
