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!

Flying Hamster HD lands on the Vita next week

The Game Atelier, flush with the success of Sunflowers, has announced the release of Flying Hamster HD for PlayStation Vita, available on December 19th on the EU PlayStation Store. Flying Hamster made an appearance on the PSP as a mini but is now in HD (or as close as the Vita gets) and features 4 control modes using the Vita's motion sensor, front touchscreen or rear touch pad.



It isn't a mini this time either, as there are 15 Trophies, 2 online leaderboards, and plenty of comedy characters in this quirky arcade action shooter. There will be a free trial or you can grab the full version next week for 2,99€. If you're a fan, you can dial into the soundtrack here.
