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.

Students of Round: The Eternal Legend is not an eating game

While the title sounds like some Sisyphus-style eating contest, it is in fact a new PSP RPG. Another Japanese company cross-over sees Kadokawa and Experience getting together to produce a series of Dungeon RPG titles, the first of which is for the PSP, with a PS Vita title to follow. This trailer is patched up of a few screen and character shots, and voice artists, but gives a hint at what's to come...



According to a literal translation the actual title should be The Eternal Legend student of the Round Table, but that's not what's on the box, but Hey-ho! Due in October, it will be available on UMD or download, so it should play on the Vita, but with a Vita game on the way, I'd hope for a western version of that over the PSP one. Or does this venture sound a little too niche for western gamers? Would it get you psyched?



The Vita game is titled only as a Dungeon RPG, which doesn't give much away.
