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!

Big Ben brings Rugby 15 to Europe

Features include, an Aviva Premiership Rugby license, TOP 14 and Guinness PRO 12 which  unites the best teams from Wales (4 teams), Ireland (4 teams), Scotland (2 teams) and Italy (2 teams) in a single league.
