Having been wowed by the news of the Vectrex Mini at Gamescom , I rushed off some questions to VectrexOn's main man  David Oghia .

NIS bringing Hyperdimension Neptunia to western gamers

Nippon Ichi ends the wait for a crumb from the Japanese table of Vita gaming goodness with Hyperdimension Neptunia PP (WIP title) coming to the US and Europe in 2014. Also coming is Mugen Souls Z for PS3. With a retail and PSN release, the Idea Factory game promises a dose of crazed idol career building in a virtualized world.


In HDNPP, the player takes on the role of the main character, hired by one of the four CPUs—Neptune, Noire, Blanc, and Vert — to be their producer and manage their idol careers. Get your training wheels on, ladies, because a new producer is in town and the fate of Gamindustri hangs in the balance! Will you be able to properly raise these CPUs into idols, or will their citizens be stolen away from them by the popular idol group MOB-48!? Teach these girls to sing, dance, and properly promote themselves to the general populace thanks in part to your expertise in training video game idols back on Earth. As the girls' popularity rises, they will be able to join one another in singing duets, or maybe even come together for a full ensemble!
