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!

A PSP game frenzy-ette after Japan has a day off

Finally, here's a new video of the Monster Hunter feylne-inspired blocks game, Pazuru in Airou, from Capcom, it certainly has bags of character.


There, all better now?
