AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

The Vectrex is the very first game console with a built-in CRT display and vector graphics. The Vectrex was the first home video game console to come with analog controls.
In contrast to most game consoles, which use raster graphics, the Vectrex uses vector graphics. The name is derived from this as well. Because of the vector graphics the console could only display black-and-white images. To add a bit of color, every game came with an overlay. This fits into the clips at the screen and gave some color to the white lines.
The set consists of the console and a handful of extra games.
- Console and control panel: In some games one or two buttons don’t work, a common issue. Probably due to contamination of the contact points. The games Clean Sweep and Scramble work well.
- Built-in is the game Minestorm, with Overlay and manual, with also general description (11 pages)
- Game Hyperchase, with Overlay and manual (19 pages)
- Game Solar Quest, with Overlay and manual (19 pages)
- Game Cleen Sweep, with Overlay and manual (27 pages)
- Game Scramble, with Overlay and manual (27 pages)
- Game Space Wars, with Overlay (no manual)
