Vectrex Mini interview - David Oghia talks up the nostalgic vector powerhouse

Kosmos Connections VN told on the Switch

Thetau Games and Ratalaika are bringing Kosmos Connections, a Kickstarter campaign visual novel (live now, well on its way to a £9.5K goal) to the Switch, if the campaign all works out.
