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?

Play Freedom Wars listening to the CD, wearing the tee-shirt

Japanese Freedom Wars fans can now order a bunch of extra goodies to go along with their prison-sentence reducing gaming sessions. Since we're getting the boxed version over here in October, any chance of these following it across the world?

I do rather like the tee-shirt (2,700 yen)! If you fancy importing them, I'm sure its possible, currently available on Ebten, which I think accepts all cards. The CD (2,000 yen) is "Politburo Culture Promotion Committee approved!" so has to be good, right?

The tracklist includes such political whimsies (via auto-translate) as:

1: Imprisonment of Koi for 1,000,000 years
2: First Panopticon Labor Song
3: Nananana
4: Thorns Lullaby
5: Imprisonment of love -Instrumental- 1,000,000 years
6: Panopticon Labor song first -Instrumental-
7: Nananana -Instrumental-
8: Thorns Lullaby -Instrumental-
