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!

Metal Gear HD hitting western PS Vitas June 12

Wow, June is looking to be a pretty good month for the PS Vita with Resistance: Burning Skies, Gravity Rush and now Metal Gear HD Edition joining Batman 2, Doctor Who and a smattering of smaller games. Hopefully the EU release won't be far behind and with a decent E3 behind it (hey, you never know) the PS Vita could start to sell some units.

Check out the game in action here, remember there's no Peace Walker in this version, but we still get MGS2 and 3, plus the original Metal Gear 8-bit games and a bunch of other goodies.
