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.

Bumper crop on this week's PlayStation Mobile update

With the PSM store closing down in July, developers are throwing their latest projects on quick, or are updating them so they appear near the top. Either way, there's still loads of free and great cheap games to pick up. This weeks best-looking picks include:

Aqualibrium (Archifishial) 11Mb FREE

A retro puzzle game with your hero lost in an alien underwater environment. Can he (she?) collect the liquid and avoid the aliens?


Grid Survivor (Cafe Game Studio) 180MB £0.40

A very retro shooter set on the grid, with your craft packing endless cannon and brakes, as it aims to avoid or kill everything else on the grid.

Tilt A Maze (James Collins) 169MB £0.79

Set across 20 3D mazes, you have to guide the ball home in the fastest time possible. With a random level generator and four worlds, you can play with the tilt controls or stick.

Super Space Serpent (Petrus) 5MB £0.40

Another vector style grid old-school shooter where I'm guessing the enemy is a really big snake.
