Very cool Vectrex homebrew cart...

Recommended Posts

Doom actually looks exactly like I would have expected it to on the vectrex. When they get it to user controlled that would be really cool...

So what's the size of the binary for Bad Apple? I find it a little hard to believe that four minutes of audio could fit into 32K, so I guess that multicart supports some sort of bank switching? The graphics I can believe could fit into 32K.

It is not 32K. If I understand correctly, the cart has its own microprocessor which is significanly more powerful than the Vectrex.The Vectrex is mainly a display. .. Maybe it's a bit like a separate computer interfacing with the Vectrex through the cartridge port, but this computer is small enough to fit on 2"x2" PCB.
