Playing 2 players is a 10/10!!
Nebula Commander is on my list of must have, I have it in the Vectrom but I would like to own it on cart. Thrust is another game I miss, I need to order them from classicgamecreations sooner or later.

Thrust is brilliant and a must have as well. Knocks spots off Gravitrex in my opinion. I've not completed it mind. It gets very tricky towards the later stages. Once you lose control and that pendulum starts swinging it's curtains. But great fun. And well drawn, unlike Gravi... I really must be kinder to that game...

I wouldn't say graphics are Dondzila's strong point actually, but what the hey, I lived through rotten Atari 2600 graphics, and it's the gameplay that matters, so not a real big deal there

You can't be too critical of JD's work seeing how much effort he puts in (and has put in), plus it looks like he sells classic creation games at cost price almost. It's a shame he doesn't join the forum... that would be a real coup. And I'd never diss Gravitrex again.

He's done many a Vectrex owner a lotta favors! plus it looks like he sells classic creation games at cost price almost. Yeah. It wouldn't surprise me if he started raising prices soon, as he's been using oversized boxes for the last couple of years and putting instructions on the back of them in order to try to reduce cost, although some of that involves cutting out details though, since VectrexMad had put up a photo of his earlier version of Gravitrex with the printed instructions on the wiki, which tells about part of the story involving the gameplay. My version (only got it in the last year, as I had noted when I started this thread) tells nothing of any of that. It wouldn't matter if he raised prices by a buck or two since he kept them fixed for over 15 years now, they're decent enough as it is, although Vector Vaders seems overpriced as compared to everything else he's done since since it only has the one game on it. But he can make any price he wants though since it's his business. It's a shame he doesn't join the forum... that would be a real coup. He's way too busy, probably. (And for anyone thinking "I'll e-mail him and ask...", DON'T! He's been asked twice already!) And I'd never diss Gravitrex again. Wuss.
