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

Sega teasing new Vita game: The new story will begin

So far the teaser site is only showing a flashy text logo, but buried in the source meta data is the telltale sign, "PlayStation Vita" which pretty much gives the format game away (and Vita only too, whoo-hoo). But what is the game? The colour scheme of the flash looks a bit Shenmue, but the logo is nothing like Shenmue's script curves. Any ideas?


It doesn't look very Yakuza-like, which was my second thought. A story-led game suggests something adventurish, "The new story" suggests an existing series getting a new tale, rather than a whole new world and series, or am I just reading too much into it?

Update: Some of the Japanese text apparently suggest its a card battler game, which is a massive let-down right away. A new free-to-play in-app-purchase heavy title beckons I fear.
