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.

So, which PS One games will you play when firmware 1.80 arrives for the Vita

Sony has said that over 100 games should be compatible with the new PS One feature on the Vita. Here's a list of all PS One games on PSN for Europe (138 games) and one for the U.S. (thanks Wikipedians). So which do you fancy trying out on your 21st Century gaming system?

Alundra is the latest arrival to the store, and now the Vita is fully functional, hopefully the pace of releases will pick up a bit. Personally, and as I've said many times, I'll be playing Ridge Racer Type 4 (again), putting some more effort into Vagrant Story and enjoying the lovely Rayman once again from my PSP-era purchases.

Looking at the list, I might pick up Parasite Eve II and Grandia. But some games, like the Tomb Raiders now seem rather superfluous, as you can get the Tomb Raider Legend PSP release for a couple of quid in the summer PSN sale. What do you fancy picking up for your Vita?
