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. I only really discovered the console world in the late 90s, which is when I got my very first Vectrex.

Keep getting logged out of PSN? Me too, fix found!

Over the weekend, any game I tried to play kept dropping the PSN log-in screen in front of me, and whenever I signed in, I was automatically signed-out again. Apparently this has been a common problem since Sony updated its terms of service. To get around it, IGN has the answer, basically go to the PSN/SEN website and accept some updated terms and conditions and your woes will go away.

Quite why you aren't requested to do this on the Vita is really annoying (Apple annoys iPhone users all the time with T&C updates, but at least it happens on the device). But, at least the fix only takes a second and seems to be working fine now. Back to the games and I can stop worry about my account being hacked and so on.

PS Thanks to all the Twitter comments that helped sort it out too.
