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?

Retro RPG Antiquia Lost bags a trophy list

Revealed at the end of July, Antiquia Lost now has a trophy listing with a Platinum and plenty of loot to collect. The Kemco and CMC Create project only just arrived on Steam, so the PS4 and Vita version is a quick follow up.

Antiquia Lost is a pretty modern looking pixel RPG with the unique feature of a slime heroine who eats gems to grow skills, and she can imitate the many monsters that the party of adventurers face. More traditional characters include Bine, a lad who lives in a small rural village. He is challenged by Lunaria, a girl who lives near the village, to go with her to the royal capital, where many quests await.

What with Undertale, The Bards Tale and more on the way, Vita continues to be a true RPG machine!
