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. I only really discovered the console world in the late 90s, which is when I got my very first Vectrex.

What crowd funded Vita projects should Sony pimp next?

With "no time," not even one minute, 19 seconds, for the Vita during its Keynote, Sony somehow found the space to spout on at length about an unfunded project by some whippersnapper indie*.

Okay Sony, let's play fair! Since you're supposed to be listening to the fans now, which games would you like to see them put up on its next event stage and give free PR to, to get funded? A great deal of time and effort went into developing the engines for Killzone, WipEout and other games on Vita.

How much pain would it cause Sony (or other development studios) to offer those engines and resources to third parties, who don't have the scale to develop a huge PS4 title, if they wanted to develop sequels, spin-offs or new IP games?

Or how about something totally left field? Let us know in the comments.
