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!

Alien Isolation shown off on Switch

One of my favourite PS4 games, especially when remote played on the Vita tucked up in bed, Alien Isolation is the latest in the series to bring the sheer terror of Ridley Scott's and H.R. Giger's Alien creation to an interactive form.

Coming to the Switch soon thanks to Feral Games, we have a new brief gameplay trailer to help set the scene and to soak up some of the dripping atmosphere. With a 2019 release date at the end of the trailer there isn't long to wait until Switch owners get to tremble in cupboards and build their own handmade weapons to distract the creature that you have no hope of killing.

Seriously, the game is awesome, and should be great on the Switch, given its PS3 origins.
