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.

Project V1 on countdown for Vita

UPDATE: Okay, the clock expired and now with some office scenes, with a helmet man in a suit, linking to invadr.net/e3, pormising some webisodes. Site doesn't work yet, is this a game, some shit TV show, definitely not Viewtiful Joe.




Original:

Haven't seen a countdown site in at least a couple of weeks. Who knows what Project V1 really is? We have a possible robot or helmet silhouette, an industrial noise in the background, but the Vita is listed as a format, alongside every other system - so consider me interested.

Given we're hot on the heels of a Wolfenstein release, can't see anyone releasing a game about the hunt for V1 rockets. It says "He is coming" which rules out Vonder Voman the game, I guess. No sign of who registered it, except for a GoDaddy mention which suggests a US publisher. However they operate in Europe too and a Belgian site got a paper press release first, so perhaps its a Euro project... all will be revealed.


At least its a short countdown that will expire next week.
