Hi everybody, Since I discovered the Vectrex rather recently, I missed the opportunity to buy a lot of homebrew games and material. And I would like to get a device that allows me to play ROM directly on the Vectrex (like the VecFlash or VecMulti). But I didn't manage to find one for the moment (I didn't contact Richard Hutchinson directly but he says on his website that they are sold out). I look on ebay and other websites from time to time, but it seems that it's not frequently sold. So if anyone is selling one, please let me know

Hi! Glad to see that folks are still discovering the Vectrex. It is a fantastic console with many excellent titles. If I see anyone selling a multicart, I'll let you know.

I'm pretty sure Richard does have them back in stock, so go email him. I don't think he has spare shells at the moment though, so they are being shipped just as the circuit board.

If you find out the current status and availability of VecMulti, please update here. I am curious myself.

One advantage of the 3D printed shell for the VecMulti there I suppose, is that you don't have to unscrew the case to take the SD microcard in and out. And I believe Richard said the max files is 1024 (have to recheck my emails from ages back), but I doubt we'll ever get near that limit hah hah. Nice video heh, my parents are somewhat like that too

No,, We'll never be able to use: 256K Ram. 64K dialup. 10MB Ethernet switched. 1000 HP engines. Gold foil birthday cakes.
If you have it, use it, fill it, run it, eat it! :-)
I look forward to the day when Richard's VecMulti is jammed to overflowing with quality Vectrex games!

I always hoped at least for the Ethernet connection for my Vectrex!

Lot of hardware hurdles, and all PC software being done for the 640 memory blocks architecture... When the evolve moment came, that must have been a plight for poor Bill
