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!

Watch the Phantasy Star Nova demo in action

The demo landed on Japan's PSN last week. Now, we can finally take a look at what Phantasy Star Nova looks like after the 13 trillion different versions of the rendered intro that Sega passed off as marketing over the last few months. Check out the video from YouTube Skyghene22 (dude, turn your notifications off when making these clips!), as he takes on that first big monster with a party and has a roll around the wastelands of this planet.

The first edition of the game will come with some special costume recipes, experience boosters and other extras to get gamers in nice and early.
