My Respectable Vectrex Collection

I love my Vectrex collection. It's the most modest section of all of my individual collections and far from "complete". And yes, that is the "mail order only" original dust cover! Let me know what you guys think!

Pretty nice, albeit most likely some expense involved. Vectrex is no cheap system to collect for.

Very nice indeed! You even have a 3D Imager! Those are not easy to come by.

Thanks! Yeah, some pieces were a little pricey. However, I think the most expensive parts are already done & paid for which is a relief. Kinda ironic though that I have the 3D imager but no 3D games, huh?

You need to get some of those 3D games!

Awesome pics! Thanks for sharing!

I got my first Vectrex in fall 1998.  The first thing I got was the Sean Kelly multicart, so when I got a Light Pen and 3D Imager, I was ready to go.

I also purchased a complete set of D.I.Y. overlays that were color-printed onto transparencies, with the opaque portions stenciled onto sticker backed paper.  I had to cut them all out with an exacto knife and carefully apply each one to the transparency.

I've got one original controller so I can play Hyper Chase, and two modded 6-button Genesis controllers to play some 2-player games as well.  Even with a limited game selection, this thing has a lot of pick-up-and-play value, especially with the built-in display.

Sounds like a decent collection, intylab!

Thanks. Although I only have a couple of boxed original commercial titles. One of them is Scramble, and I forget what the other one is. Most of my carts are the early homebrews. I also have a copy of Cube Quest, which I don't think is an actual game so much as a demo.

I have Cute Quest too. I got it at the last CGE in Vegas! I think that was in 2014.
