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! 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?

Fruit Ninja to slice up the Vita this week

The fiendishly popular three-year old iOS finally comes to the Vita, something we realised a few weeks back when a bunch of in-app treats appeared on PSN. It will appear on the US PSN for certain this week, alongside Japanese open-'em-up Open Me, and hopefully in Europe too

Still, I was more than happy with Jetpack Joyride so will look forward to this, assuming the correct balance of play and in-app purchases is maintained. There's been a great deal of extra content for the original game over the years, so we also wait to see if the Vita gets any of that. Also remember that Halfbrick's next game Collossatron might get a slightly quicker port to the Vita.
