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. Of course, I had seen it in stores back in 1983, but at that time it was far too expensive for me.  Today, I own five Vectrex systems at home. Vector-based games ...

Limited Run checks out with Super Meat Boy

 All good things must come to an end, and Limited Run is waving goodbye to the Vita with a super-duper Super Meat Boy special edition, unless it has any more treats locked away in the cupboard. You can get the basic game for $29.99 or go mental with a $74.99 deluxe bundle collector's edition with a meat boy, meat tray and poster, all in a glossy box. 



Standard Editions of Super Meat Boy on Vita & Collector's Editions of Super Meat Boy on PS4, Switch, and Vita will be sold in limited quantity in two batches at 10 am and 6 pm ET on July 30. Copies of these editions will be limited to one per customer.

Super Meat Boy used to be on PSN, but was delisted  a while back (in the UK at least, it is still on the US PSN for a more reasonable $14.99). So this is could be your only chance to get it, assuming you're lucky enough in the scrum for copies. 


UPDATE: Naturally, all sold out in seconds (this was an old very limited production that Limited Run had kept back). That means eBay is the only place to go with prices ranging from £250-350 all the way up to £8,600 if you are clinically insane. I'll stick with my digital version thanks!
