Hi,
Apologies if this is in the wrong forum.
I am having a problem with my Vectrex, I have owned this beauty for over 13 years and it has worked flawlessly over that entire time, in tandem with my Vecflash cart, courtesy of that genius Richard Hutchinson.
But when I powered it on the other day, I found that the buttons on the controller were not working.
It went from all working fine to none of them working at all.
The stick works as normal but the buttons are all out of action.
And I've no idea why.
All of the online resources suggest its a dirty contact in the controller, but that wouldn't explain why they'd all go at once.
So I thought I'd throw it out there, and see if you have any suggestions, a problem with some control board or some such, does it need a whole new controller, etc...
