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? I’ve always been passionate about retro-gaming, but my first love was computers rather than consoles — the ZX81, then the Commodore 128. I only really discovered the console world in the late 90s, which is when I got my very first Vectrex.

Steins Gate Elite goes all multiverse on the Switch

The finest visual novel ever? I think so, such was the emotion kicked out of me by the 5pb original on my Vita. Now, Steins Gate Elite graces the Switch, adding a fresh visual layer to the tragi-comic time travelling adventures of maddening scientist Rintaro Okabe and his crazy friends.

Published by Spike Chunsoft, on the Switch version, we get an 8-BIT ADV STEINS;GATE, a special 8-bit graphics and chiptune version of the game developed by series creator Chiyomaru Shikura. This bonus content is available with all digital and physical copies.




STEINS;GATE ELITE is a fully remastered title with animated scenes from the anime, creating a brand-new, immersive experience. Follow a group of young, tech-savvy Lab Members who discover the means of changing the past by using e-mail and a modified microwave. Their experiment to push the boundaries of time spirals out of control as they become entangled in a conspiracy surrounding SERN, the organization behind the Large Hadron Collider, and John Titor, who claims to be from a dystopian future.

Check out the trailer, but it won't help! You really need to buy the game and persevere through the first few chapters to get into the story and its dramatic twists and turns through the timelines of a Okarin's tiny world tearing itself apart.
