  1. No kidding right? Too crazy

     

     

    I already had purchased a 72 in 1 (seems good enough to begin with) and Big Blue PCB today. I will probably get the VecFever once released as well. My next step is getting some overlays. I am trying to do a little at a time to spread out the $$

     

    And of course at the same time looking for a good system to use all this stuff with ;)

     

     

    Any recommendations of psychedelic overlay pairings with games?

  2. Hello everyone!

     

    Long story short, I am new to the Vectrex world and I have a few noob questions I could not figure out. I do not have one yet, but will be getting one this summer. I have not played one for about 25-30 years, but I have fond childhood memories of playing one with my dad who is no longer with us. I actually did not even figure out what it was we played until a few months ago. Anyways....here are my questions.....any help would be greatly appreciated

     

    1) Multicarts - I am not looking to collect games, and would love everything in one package. Is the quality of a multicart the same as buying the regular games? I would still use overlays and would buy reproductions.. Would a Multicart me the way to go?

     

    2) VecFever?? - So I sort of understand the upcoming Vecfever, but not really. Basically it was be a Multicart that lights up and has some homebrew games on it? I am not interested in the developmental stuff so all that stuff confuses me, as did the FAQ. Would I me wise to wait for one? Is it easy to upload the ROMs and would the quality still be as good as carts?

     

    3) Buzz - How much buzz is acceptable when trying out systems? Again I have not even touched one in 25-30 years so I have no memory. Should I still hear it over the game play?

     

    4) Skins - I have seen some systems with graphic skins on the outside and the controller. Are these available anywhere? If I find a system that plays well but has cosmetic issues I would be interested in getting one.

     

    5) Homebrew Games - Any good ones (especially with overlays) currently available at retail prices and not for a ton on eBay?

     

    Anything else you think I am missing? Thanks Again!
