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.

Sword Art Online hits the EU PSN and retail

Lost Song is now singing out on the shelves, the latest in the Sword Art Online series. In the game, your heroes, face-off against a mysterious guild and explore the beautiful land of Svart ALfheim - a brand new area of ALfheim Online (as seen in the anime). It costs 29.99 on PSN and is PlayStation TV compatible.

Fly across the world and fight enemies in unique aerial combat, traverse from one floating island to the next, explore dungeons and complete dangerous quests. A revised fighting system also allows players to engage enemies in dynamic and thrilling combat.



Bandai states its plan is to bring Sword Art Online games to the level where our other anime and manga based games are. We are investing in this brand by bringing more games to the online and physical shelves, by localizing them, by working hand in hand with the original author, by creating exclusive content and offers for our fans and above all: by listening to them.

That translates (to me) as "start buying these games, otherwise we won't be making any more".
