-Over 300 new pictures added including tons of individual shots of manuals, overlays, boxes and carts plus comparisons. Probably half of the entries got additional pictures.

-The title banner was updated with new Vectrex Art.

The checklist has not been updated yet. I will also be adding the Green generic overlay from VectrexMad and the NELS re-release once I receive it.

Big Thanks to VECTREXER for supplying me with a ton of new pictures.

Happy Play Your Vectrex Day!

I see that the last update was performed almost a year ago and quite a lot have been released since then. It took over a month to update the site to the level I wanted.

- Well over a dozen new pages added: Chopper the Dog Engineering Controller, Vic-Sarj Controller, Blackout Controller, VectrexMad Green overlay, Spudster's Revenge, Robot Arena, The Core, Vecfever, Thermometer Cart, Karl Quappe, Vectrex Audio Tap, Buzz Off Kit, Packrat's Test Cart Rev 4, Packrat's Bits n Bytes, Original Carrying Case, Original Dust Cover, and Original Control Panel.

- Updated many pages with variants such as Big Blue Lite, Madtronix Light Pen, NELS re-release, and the first 10 Fury Budget Games versions (Sundance and Sector X were just released).

- Hundreds of new pictures. I looked to see what I still needed and almost every version of every game released now has individual pictures of the box, manual, cart and overlay as well as comparisons and overviews of what came with each release. The galleries have plenty of pictures on each page.

- Checklist has finally been updated. Both the embedded searchable checklist and customizable google spreadsheets/checklist.com links have been updated.

- The are now more website as part of Additional Links. I try to make sure that everyone knows as much as possible. Please visit the Vectrex related pages of people who make this community what it is.

- 2 new overlay designs released especially for Play Your Vectrex Day. I've been working on a Patriots design for a while and its now available. I also got permission from Chris Malcolm to make available one of the many working designs for Hex. Also available in the download section is a box insert for Minestorm II, if you are one of the lucky people to own a copy.

- The Special Thanks page continues to grow as people contribute more and more pictures and information to the website. Everyone also gets credit on pictures in the galleries when they help out. Click on the pictures to see their names.
