Morning all,
I also posted this on rec.games.vectrex...
I've decided to try to collate photos of all the secret messages inside the 27 Vectorcades (0-26) that Brett made.
I will try some more targeted detective work later but if anyone here has one and wants to share the message then please get in touch.
So far I have the messages from 0, 19, 23 (mine), 24 (a friend's one I ordered at the same time), and 25
Cheers,
cNp

Good idea  I just wonder if Brett is ever going to update his site ever again. |

Good idea I just wonder if Brett is ever going to update his site ever again. Think he might if he knows how much the auction went for. Might even complete the remainder of the 50? |

I paid $200 for my two Vectorcade controllers way back when on Sep 10, 2001.
So $100 each.
And yes, they did include shipping.
Brett was really awesome to do so.
Hi controllers really were quite a deal! They take all of the pounding you can throw at them and ask for more. The finish is pretty tough as well. Quite satisfied back then and remain so today.

Cheers for the heads up... I've saved the picture of the message to go with the others.

Vectorcade #8 is listed at ebay for $1888, again. In one of the pictures you can see the text inside the Vectorcade which is:
Hi! Vectorcade was one of many names
picked for this Digital Controller...
Others were: VDAC, Vstick,
Vbox, Varcadia, and Digitrex to
name a few.
8
You got my birthday!
Chris, what are the texts of the other messages that you have collected, already? Perhaps the Vectrex Wiki would be a good place to store all the messages.

Hey, yeah, I've been meaning to get around to doing something with the messages I have and the photos... I don't have many though!
I'll sort them out in the next week.
