VERY SMALL VECTREX
David Oghia tells all about the upcoming mini console
» As you can see, the Vectrex Mini looks to recreate the original Eighties console in faithful miniature form.
Few gaming devices of any kind can match the cool factor of the Vectrex. There has never been anything like the self-contained console with the vector display, and thanks to the obsolescence of the technology, there will never be anything like it again. That makes it a hot commodity in the collector’s market, which has put it out of reach of many players, but now the Vectrex Mini is on the way – an all-in-one unit that aims to offer players a taste of what the system is all about. After a successful debut showing at Gamescom in Germany, the console is now doing the rounds at various retro events, so we caught up with David Oghia to talk a little more about the machine.
