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?

Puddle now free on PlayStation Plus for Vita owners, F1 2011 diddy discout

Another two games I happen to own already, curses! But, if you don't (and its pretty good timing with the start of the new F1 season last weekend) you can grab hold of Codemaster's F1 2011 for just over £10 on the Vita.
