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 .

Does the Switch really need All-Star Fruit Racing?

Players collect different types of fruit as they race to fill up The Juicer's liquid tanks, then custom-combine the juice tanks' power to let loose a combo power-up.
