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?

Invizimals, Deception and MXGP hiding in the new UK Vita chart

In this week's UK chart, Invizimals sneaks its way in as the highest new entry at No. 3, probably more impressive is Tecmo's Conception IV in at No. 5, not bad for a relatively obscure Japanese game, while MXGP rather limps in at 16.

Square's FFX collection remains at number one, I wouldn't be surprised if Fez outsold them all on digital downloads, but since the UK charts are so old hat, we'll never know. None of the new entries make the all-formats top 40, so are probably selling negligible copies as usual. Here's hoping Sony's spring marketing onslaught gets going soon.

1 - FINAL FANTASY X/X-2 HD REMASTER SQUARE ENIX 1 2
2 - FIFA 14 EA SPORTS 2 27
3 new INVIZIMALS: THE ALLIANCE SONY - 1
4 - TEARAWAY SONY 4 19
5 new DECEPTION IV: BLOOD TIES TECMO - 1
6 - KILLZONE: MERCENARY SONY 3 30
....
16 new MXGP MILESTONE - 1
