Vectrex podcast
The Retrokompott (German only) podcast had the idea to make a series about the Vectrex. With Torbens help we came together and talked about many things Vectrex (we, as in Torben, Olli and me as “experts” and Patrick as moderator). The complete session(s) were over 6 hours of unfiltered vectrex stuff. Talking about original games and hardware to homebrews and new hardware, from anecdotes and fundamental half knowledge to guesswork everything was present (not to forget the Spinner). The complete recording(s) were split into 6 parts and published between June and September 2022.

If you want to digest this – you are welcome to head ofter to the podcasts folder and search for podcasts #172 to #177.
