Gamasutra's "A History of Gaming Platforms" - The Vectrex


Recommended Posts

Hey, guys, just a heads-up, the second article in the series from the book, this one on the GCE/Milton Bradley Vectrex, has been posted by Gamasutra: http://www.gamasutra.com/view/feature/3117...tforms_the_.php

 

And some bonus images: http://armchairarcade.com/neo/node/1654

 

The next one up will be the Apple II, which I think is the best one yet. Enjoy!

The article states that you can get Vectrex carts for $5 a pop which I have yet to see...

 

Well, it's tough to go back to a 2007 article for things like pricing (and I purposely kept stuff like that vague anyway), but, yes, generally speaking you can get loose games far cheaper, particularly without the overlays. I've even seen the prices of the systems drop a bit over the past year too.
