Jon sits down with Vectrex Lead Manager, David Oghia, to dig into the details of this forthcoming reproduction console. Remember 1982, the Vectrex is the console that made many gamers dream. With its look like a small arcade machine, its independent screen and above all the vector graphics, even 40 years later, the Vectrex is still great. #retrogaming #vectrex #genxgrownup - LINKS Kickstarter » https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1852390947/vectrex-mini Vectrex Site » https://vectrex.com Full Interview Podcast » https://pca.st/8izq2v4i - SHOP http://genxgrownup.com/amazon http://GenXGrownUp.com/merch - PODCAST http://GenXGrownUp.com/pod - SUPPORT US https://patreon.com/genxgrownup - WEB & SOCIAL http://GenXGrownUp.com/discord https://twitch.tv/genxgrownup http://fb.me/GenXGrownUp https://bsky.app/profile/genxgrownup.com https://www.tiktok.com/@genxgrownup https://www.instagram.com/genxgrownup/ http://GenXGrownUp.com - SPONSORS King of Nerds » http://kingofnerds.tv Order of Cosmic Champions » http://www.orderofcosmicchampions.com - CHAPTERS 00:00 Welcome 01:25 Inspiration? 04:07 Gamescom 06:05 Non-CRT 08:25 Controller 10:16 Screen Overlays 11:38 The Games 14:55 Date & Price 16:33 Backer Add-Ons 20:30 Created by a Fan 20:41 Hardware 22:30 Vector Clock 23:32 Size 26:35 Comparison Plan 28:03 Farewell

Atari released Tod Fry's VCS conversion of Pac-Man in 1981 to somewhat mixed reviews. Like the Star Wars prequels, Pac-Man has become more appreciated as the years pass, but at the time it left many players frustrated and wanting more. So, the following year, when the home version of Ms. Pac-Man was set to be released, Atari seemed to be doing everything it could to put Mister in the past. Jon was among those disappointed with Pac-Man on the 2600, and he's also among those who have grown more fond of it over the years. But in 1982, the wound was still fresh. And it's clear Atari wanted players to know they were listening. In a time when games were commonly created by a single programmer, Ms. Pac-Man's development is credited to FOUR different programmers all working to deliver a more accurate arcade conversion. #atari #retrogaming #pacman #genxgrownup - SHOP http://genxgrownup.com/amazon http://GenXGrownUp.com/merch - PODCAST http://GenXGrownUp.com/pod - SUPPORT US https://patreon.com/genxgrownup - WEB & SOCIAL http://GenXGrownUp.com/discord https://twitch.tv/genxgrownup http://fb.me/GenXGrownUp https://bsky.app/profile/genxgrownup.com https://www.tiktok.com/@genxgrownup https://www.instagram.com/genxgrownup/ http://GenXGrownUp.com - SPONSORS King of Nerds » http://kingofnerds.tv Order of Cosmic Champions » http://www.orderofcosmicchampions.com - CHAPTERS
