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!

Golden Week Vita sales hit 5.5K in Japan

Golden Week definitely isn't what it used to be for hardware sales in Japan, but this year it managed to give the Vita a healthy spike to 5,500 units.

In the Media Create chart, Konami's Powerful Pro Baseball 2018 is still the only Vita game in town, shifting 15,867 copies last week to move to a healthy 74,303 overall.


Next up are the Persona 3 and 5 Dancing Moon/Star Night games at the end of the month which should make a healthy impression on the chart.
