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.  Update: the Vectrex Kickstarter is live and blew past its first funding goal in ab out 15 minutes, and approaching £450K and 2,500 backers in its first day.   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?

Jet Set Radio launching on PS Vita October 16

But it looks like it could be worth the wait, with good scores from 75% up and a spray can full of gaming goodness, which arrive to more-or-less coincide with the Dreamcast's 13th birthday (JSR appears at No.3 in this great list of top DC titles).

The Vita version will cost a pretty decent, $9.99, £6.49 or €7.99



I'll add more reviews as they appear.

Eurogamer - 9/10
Games Radar – 4/5
NowGamer – 9.0/10

I think we can safely ignore The Verge (Polygon's) review of 5/10 written by a pent-up executive who talks about properties and prioritization, as if this was a boardroom report.

Since there's been no word, and the Vita version is out late, I'm guessing there's no Cross Buy or Cross Play involved.
