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 .

EU PSN puts up a Vita first birthday sale

Go the web-based PSN site and there's a new entry called PS Vita 1st Birthday sale with a bunch of the original launch games listed.
