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!

So you're buying a PS Vita, essential games to own

Just over a year ago, I wrote this buying guide, covering the best Vita games, budget titles, augmented games and others so far, which has proved to be one of the more enduring articles on the blog.

See my reviews list for some more detail, or search the blog for news, video etc. Anything I've forgotten, or your own favourites? Let us know in the comments.
