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!

Top PSN April downloads, God of War back from the dead

In the U.S., interest in the new God of War game saw the Vita collection shoot to the top of the portable downloads section. Cosmic Star Heroine is the only new release to muscle her way in among the usual old stagers. Not bad considering it only had a few days on-sale at the end of the month.

Europe stopped posting a Vita chart recently, just when things could be getting interesting. So, there's even less information for us to go on. Here's hoping the likes of Sir Eatsalot, Reverie and Rogue Aces made some sort of impact.

It's pathetic that sales figures are NDA'd by Sony, preventing developers from promoting their game effectively, and consequently the Vita if any of the above do manage to be a decent hit!
