As I did last year, I have gotten the Vectrex ready to go first, as it is the easiest system to get prepared. That fact that it is an all-in-one console sure helps! :P
I will be using the VecFlash for most of the show, even though I'm disappointed in the fact that some games just would not play with this programmable multi-cart. Thrust and Moon Lander are two big examples, that crashed every time I tried them with the VecFlash. It is a nice programmable cartridge, but I have found that it does have its limits.
For the Vectrex '09 display, I will be mainly running these games (at best, probably less - it just makes it simpler and easier to run the show with fewer games):
-
Berzerk (something that people would recognize)
-
Hyperchase (darn good racing game)
-
Mine Storm (built-in, but a very, very good game)
-
Patriots (great homebrew)
-
RipOff (good space game)
-
Scramble (another recognizable arcade game)
-
Space Wars (great two-player game)
-
Spike Hoppin' (good homebrew)
-
Star Trek (always fun to play)
I will more than likely be bringing a set of Homebrew games just for display, but this will allow for the running of Moon Lander and Thrust too. I really would like to show both of these games to the public.
