oh and get yourself a psychedelic overlay :) you can just use it for all games, that's what i do (the original vectrex overlays were not very ambitious or exciting) a guy called Steven Kray on the facebook group sells them.. $13 https://www.facebook.com/notes/104852679725118/Overlays%20from%20Steven%20Kray/523467281196987/ !

That's a cool overlay. Nice pick up. The Vectrex is on my list of cool items that I'll probably never own do to the price point. |

Wait on it. Prices are absolutely insane right now. They will go down. They have to go down. This stuff is NOT WORTH what idiots are paying for it right now. I've been in this hobby for 20 years and it has never been anything like it is right now. |

Caps came yesterday, got them all installed and very happy with results. It looked great before. but now it's much better. The details in little things such as the tiny ships in Solar Quest and Cosmic Chasm can be seen now. The programmed variance with the intensity of the Z axis is much more prominent, it was hard to tell which player had the ball in Blitz! and the difference in teams with Head On. Got this sucker dialed in now. @opt2not. Moon Lander is included on the multicart, was pulling my hair out for a couple games with just the buttons til I realized the joystick does analog thrust. Fun stuff. After doing the cap job and learning more, these things are really just mini arcade units minus a coin mech. Check your voltages on +5 and -5 sounds cliche, but if you get nothing, replace the corresponding voltage regs or re-pin power connector to game baord. @adder. Yeah, I'm not a FB type person at all, would take 5 figures tax free per year to get me on that cesspool. I saw the thread on atariage for the vecfever, looks like a nice product, we'll see if it pans out. I'll be quite fine with the sean kelly thingy for some time. Pretty sure I placed an order on Sunday for 4 overlays through ebay from the same guy as the FB link. I ordered 4 kinda cool and unique ones, Armor Attack, Cosmic Chasm, Pole Position and Spin Ball. Seller sent me a pic of his modified Spin Ball that he came up with instead of the original and asked if I wanted to try it, I said sure. @ChadTower haha, I don't want the original goggles, that's for sure, unless they're free. I did see the "homebrew" ones from a guy in Germany? though, those look kinda interesting. Yeah the prices are a little cray cray now, same could be said for a lot of various hobbies, even the arcade market. Persistence does pay off eventually, it was nice to run into a seller that wasn't wearing dollar sign sun glasses with crack stem burnt lips. good day. |
