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. Of course, I had seen it in stores back in 1983, but at that time it was far too expensive for me.  Today, I own five Vectrex systems at home. Vector-based games ...

Bandai Europe counting down to a new game, God Eater?

UPDATE 2: Confirmed on the PSN blog, with an announce trailer for the western release of God Eater Resurrection, and God Eater 2, plus Mobile Suit Gundam Extreme Vs-Force - all the mech and monster pummeling action a Vita owner could want, happy Christmas.



I'm assuming the geometric shapes represent the PlayStation buttons. Another message just popped up, "nous sommes la proie" which translates as "we are the prey!" Yet another is...

...which is "teamwork will help us on the journey" - so definitely sounds like a multiplayer focused title. Feel free to keep watching and comment if you recognise anything - its a bit like the Midnight Channel isn't it!

Someone following the hashtag #mysteriousgames reckon they saw a God Eater MP3 file listed in the source, but it has since been replaced, so who knows! Guess we find out next Monday.
