    Appreciate the review! You're exactly the kind of player we made this thing for :-)

      Oh man! You are one of the creators! Thanks for watching ❤️That’s so awesome. I don’t hold any punches on this channel so if there was even something remotely wrong you’d hear it. So there was literally no criticism whatsoever. It’s truly a great product and so well documented even though it’s a single piece of paper and a link. As a result it was a challenge to make a video on it 😀Because it’s so self explanatory and beyond straightforward. I love it and I can’t wait to hack some stuff myself and explore the Vectrex’ hardware myself.

    Portable vector graphics "console" was pretty cool. Played with them in stored, lacked the funds to buy one.

      Same here, there was no way I could have one in 1982.

      Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment! Means a lot! I also have two more videos on Vectrex, one where I refurbished this one and one I created a working digital joystick.

      Hi thanks Motown Batman (awesome name!) for the sun and enjoying the video. I soon want to start playing with some C development on the Vectrex to explore it myself too. I’ve never written anything for it, heck I didn’t even own one in the early 80s. I had to plonk a dollar into one that was converted to a coin op in front of the toy store. But it’s after the MegaDrive (Genesis) my most favorite and played retro console.
