Rantmedia Games will soon be releasing Vectrex Regeneration, a universal Vectrex emulator that comes bundled with the entire original game library — nearly 30 titles. Beyond this, a number of feature packs will be available as in-app-purchases to enable extended functionality.

The Vectrex was a video game system from the same era of home consoles that spawned the Atari 2600 and the Mattel Intellivision. It sported its own built-in monitor, which displayed vector graphics (think “Asteroids” or “Tempest”) instead of the traditional blocky color graphics that were standard for the era. It died an ignominious death in the early 1980s with a paucity of games available, but anyone who’s ever handled one will tell you how cool it was.
