desiv Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 3D Imager LightPen You have the original of those? I have the homebrew 3D LCD goggles (nice, but no color) and homebrew lightpen. I'd love to see/try the real 3D Imager someday, but I know I'll never own one... desiv Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrekMD Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 WOW, i am jelous i dont own the 3d imager or light pen, but i do own art master :/ I just added 3D Minestorm and 3D Crazy Coaster. Completely forgot to include those on the list! Do you know where to get the homebrew games? There are a couple of web pages you can get several of them from, directly from the folks who make them. i do know! at classicgamecreations.com they sell alot of homebrews nice! i looove the vectrex, if it wasnt for my parents, i would be spending alooot of money on the vectrex lol Classic Games Creations is but one page that sells homebrews. There are some others with different homebrew games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I figured I'd think of them as investments since they ain't getting cheaper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Catsmasher Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 I bought one at a flea market for $50. Cleaned it up and it works great! It is my favorite system - all i have to do is turn it on and play. No adapters, power supplies etc. Vectrex just plain rocks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do have some decent homebrews. I have the homebrew lightpen and the homebrew LCD 3D shutters.

GameGirl420 Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 I've owned a Vectrex for several years now. I only have around 10 games but I've got all the screen inlays. My favorite game atm for it is Starhawk lol. I play it at least several times a week. TrekMD's collection there looks really awesome. Now I've gotta get me one of those 3D Imagers and the light pen.

TrekMD Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 Thanks guys! Desiv, you have two games I don't have: Vix/Tsunami and Spinnerama. What are they? I'm going to guess they are very difficult to find. Desfeek, I posted pictures of my entire collection of systems (not just Vectrex) over at VGF. It's a very long post! You already received your Vectrosis controller?! Nice! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrekMD Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 Nice list, Matt. Spike's Circus! Another one that's hard to find. I've emailed through the web site for it but have not gotten any replies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
desiv Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 Desiv, you have two games I don't have: Vix/Tsunami and Spinnerama. What are they? I'm going to guess they are very difficult to find. Christopher Tumber.. Vix/Tsunami is a 2 game cart. Vix is Qix. Tsunami is Tempest, kind of.. It supports the Atari driving controller for a more realistic feel. As I understand it tho (I think, it's been awhile), the source code was lost so it's a very playable, but not complete version. It's more a play-alike. Spinnerama is a set of games modified to use the Atari driving controller, including: Bedlam , Cosmic Chasm , Minestorm, 3D Minestorm , Pole Position , Rip Off Solar Quest, Star Castle , and Omega Chase Unfortunately, I believe Christopher is out of the Vectrex biz. I think I heard he had some health issues. I wish him the best!!! desiv Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming, Christopher made them freely available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
