Totally get that, Space Invaders is great too! Arcade games are such a joy. ๐Ÿ˜Š

Thanks for your kind message!

Thanks for sharing, glad you like the Vectrex Mini! ๐Ÿ˜Š

Yes! The software will support digital overlays, so youโ€™ll be able to add them to the games. Weโ€™re currently working on a few small features like this, for example the ability to turn the buzz sound on or off. ๐Ÿ˜Š

Joining Fediverse would be great, but managing all those networks might be a bit much. ๐Ÿ˜

Yeah the screen is definitely a key part of the Vectrex experience! Thatโ€™s why weโ€™ve put a lot of work into the display and the emulation of effects... Youโ€™ll be able to adjust the display settings to get a look that works best for you. ๐Ÿ˜Š

Hi, sorry for the late reply!

1. The resolution is 800x480px.
2. The games will run in black and white, but the Vectrex Mini does support color.
3. Yes, youโ€™ll be able to add digital overlays to the games.

Thatโ€™s such a great memory with the bookstore setup! ๐Ÿฅฐ
For the Vectrex Mini, itโ€™s emulation on an OLED screen, and youโ€™ll be able to adjust the display settings to get the look you want.

Unfortunately thatโ€™s not something weโ€™ll be able to offer, as CRT screens are no longer produced for consumer use today.

If you're a retro enthusiast then you've no doubt heard of the iconic one-of-its-kind #Vectrex console

An innovative system that utilized a built-in vector screen for its graphics

And now, there's a mini-revision on the way

I can see that! Itโ€™s actually the ship that lays mines in Minestorm (which is the Vectrex version of Asteroids), but yeah, it does have that same kind of look! ๐Ÿ™‚

13.01.2026 19:35 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 1    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Backed this one on Kickstarter in the first hour! I just love how unique the Vectrex is, and I might never have learned about if not for this revival. Gonna be a long wait, but worth it!

12.01.2026 00:44 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 2    ๐Ÿ” 1    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Yeah the Vectrex is truly something special!! Thank you so much for backing it so early, that really means a lot to us. ๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ™

The Vectrex Mini doesnโ€™t support the 3D Imager, so true 3D games would be tricky, but weโ€™d love to see something like that happen. ๐Ÿ˜Œ

13.01.2026 18:29 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 0    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Iโ€™ll think about reposting some gameplay soon so you can see it in action!
