The Vectrex was a video game console made in 1982 by General Consumer Electrics. The Vectrex was the first console that had 3D peripherals and the first portable console. It could use Vector Graphics to make higher quality games. It failed after an intense crash in the video game industry. GCE failed along with it, selling the Vectrex to Milton Bradley(now Hasbro). The Vectrex left the market in 1984. (Wikipedia) Now, there is a Java based emulator (ParaJVE) for the Vectrex and most games are in the public domain or are freeware. Adding the Vectrex would be adding a more broad view of the early gaming industry for Vizzed users. Only a few games are still being updated and supported. They sell for $35 a piece. I hope that this request has been acknowledged and properly set upon.

EDIT: FYI: The vectrex has many legal ROMs and a legal emulator that actually includes public domain/freeware ROMs. The emulator is ParaJVE and ROMs are at the Internet Archive.

I have been wanting a vectrex emulator on here for a long time. Calling it portable is a bit of a stretch. I mean come on try playing one of those huge things in the car. It seems impossible. The vectrex is the only game console that uses 100% vector graphics making it unique and special.

Adding systems to the Plugin costs money. The Plugin is pretty much completely funded by donations. So the best way to get new plugin updates like this is to donate to the site so it can happen faster.

rcarter2 : He mentioned a Java emulator for it, it would just require David to add it to the RGR.

Thx for all the replies!

rcarter2 : Unfortunately, I have a Minecraft Server which I have to manage money for, which means I can't do any donates in the foreseeable future.

G@mehe@d : I received facts about the Vectrex when researching about old video game fails, and it is portable since all parts were included.

tRIUNE : See Below

rcarter2 : ParaJVE can be found at these following locations:

http://freecode.com/projects/parajve (mirror for ParaJVE)

http://www.vectrex.fr/ParaJVE/ (Official ParaJVE page and downloads)

http://vectrex-emu.blogspot.com/ (Official ParaJVE blog)

Unfortunately, I believe that ParaJVE is no longer being updated as of 2011. Last update was from 2010.

ParaJVE includes lots of ROMs, in fact most of all the available notable Vectrex games.

ParaJVE is freeware and all ROMs are legal.

An abandoned debugger project of ParaJVE (ParaJVD) is currently in alpha, and non-downloadable.



CC23 : The system actually isn't that great to play with, but is a VERY VERY VERY important piece of forgotten history.



Hope ParaJVE is included!

Say, does anyone know if I can mention Davideo just so he sees this thread?
