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.

Persona Dancing All Night gets a limited edition Vita

Not only is Persona Dancing All Night (see the new trailer) looking like one of the hot Vita party games of the year. It will also get (in Japan, at least) a very swanky limited edition that looks to be based on the lime green model, with a skin pre-wrapped on the back. Certainly I'd import one in a heartbeat (or perhaps Atlus could smuggle a few west).


It will be out on June 25th to coincide with the game's release, with reservations starting tomorrow. If Atlus can keep up the hype then that'd probably be a good week in the charts. Sony doesn't specify what memory card it comes with, unless it comes with the physical game and uses the internal 1GB for storage, but there's a Persona 5 preview Blu-ray as part of the deal.
