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!

Valkyrie Drive stays at UK retail chart No. 1

Fun and games on the UK retail chart this week, with PQube's Valkyrie Drive sticking to the number one spot, which doesn't happen very often. Bandai's God Eater 2 continues to shift a few copies, glued to No. 5, while Gal*Gun is also claiming more sales back into the top 10.

Lumo continues to illuminate that top 10, and Criminal Girls 2 just drops out, hopefully the Limited Edition sold well. Meanwhile, ahead of the November Steins Gate 0 launch, the original sneaks back into the top 20, making it a hat trick of PQube titles in the chart.

On the Amazon Best Sellers list, World of Final Fantasy continues to be the lead pre-order game, followed by Sword Art Online: Hollow Realization.
