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? I’ve always been passionate about retro-gaming, but my first love was computers rather than consoles — the ZX81, then the Commodore 128.

If this talk proves true then the Vita-as-a-substitute-screen gives it another reason to exist and makes those PS4/Vita bundles a little more likely to happen. But, can Sony provide another link between the two to make their coexistence really useful, fun or essential. Having read through many Wii U boards, it seems few see value in the Wii U's extra screen, so can Sony find the magic ingredient?
