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 .

SpyHunter dated and ready for sneaky pre-orders

Spy Hunter on the Vita and 3DS has been given a 1 October roll-out date by Warner, some glossy new box art and is now available to pre-order from most US online stores for around $40.
