Perhaps it shouldn’t be surprising that the Vectrex Mini smashed its Kickstarter target so quickly, taking less than 15 minutes to hit its goal.
There’s been a real buzz about the machine sonce it was previewed at this year’s Gamescom (as we previously reported). We also previously reported that a Kickstarter campaign to fund production of the Vectrex Mini would be launching on November 3rd, but it didn’t just launch then, but it also quickly obliterated its target of £96,471, with the total pledged sitting at an awe-inspiring £414,336 from a total of 2,382 backers at the time of writing, and the campaign still has 28 days left to run!

The Vectrex Mini will include a 5″ AMOLED screen, 12 built-in games with overlays, HDMI output, a Bluetooth controller, SD card slot, and the collector’s box inspired by the 1982 original. The White Edition also comes with an exclusive White Edition badge, a set of special stickers to customize your Vectrex Mini with a unique pearl look, and an  individually numbered unit and a Certificate of Authenticity.

Rewards on offer in the Vectrex Mini Kickstarter campaign include a range of T-shirts, the Vectrex Mini console itself; a limited edition white Vextrex Mini (of which just 96 out of 250 remain at the time of writing), and a Bluetooth control panel.
