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.

Superfrog HD hopping to Vita this month

We've known its been coming for a long time now, but now we have some confirmed details from Team 17. It will be a cross-buy, cross-play title with LBP-style Vita play on the PS3. There's also those lovely Trophies and Leader board support.

Superfrog HD is out on the 31st July via the European PSN for just £6.49/€7.99. It features enhanced graphics, 24 new levels based on the original designs, 24 original levels that can be unlocked and more.

There's also an Endless Runner mode, Cross-Controller Support – Play on your PS3™ system using the PS Vita as a controller to gain an advantage as secrets are displayed on the PS Vita’s screen. Why not try going through one of the portals on PS3™ and watch as Superfrog is transported to a hidden area you can then access on your PS Vita!

If you were hoping for some Vita-based Worms action, it looks like the next game, Worms 3, is iOS-only. Which is a big shame, but it might spread elsewhere after launch.
