How would you like to be part of a new era of gaming consoles? Read along.
The Vega+
is a new low cost hand-held games console with a colour LCD screen and 1,000 licensed games
already installed. The Sinclair ZX
Spectrum Vega+, to give the
product its full name, is based on Sir Clive’s hugely successful Spectrum
products from the past - the early 1980s - and incorporates all the features of
the ZX Vega and more, including stereo output for great reproduction of gaming
sounds and music. It is the only games
console that exists with 1,000 licensed games already included and with both an
LCD for anywhere use and the capability to connect to a TV for home use.
In this new conception of what a games player wants
from their games console, their design team has taken advantage of major advances
in technology to achieve big cost savings, by replacing most of the electronics
in the early Sinclair computer products. Instead they have chosen a fast but low
cost micro-controller with software designed and developed by a leading world
expert on Sinclair Spectrum technology. Their software is used in clever ways,
allowing them to build this exciting product which can run every Spectrum game
that exists, 14,000 or more of them from the past, most of which were developed
during the years when some 5 million of the original Sinclair ZX Spectrum were being sold. And the low component cost
means they can afford to keep the price of the Vega+ very affordable, especially for a product with 1,000 licensed
games inside for you to play as soon as you open the box.
Current Status
The development of the Sinclair ZX Spectrum Vega+ is complete, and they have a fully
working prototype waiting to go into production in the UK. Production and
shipping of the first Vega+ games consoles
are planned for late summer 2016. Given
the chance, and with encouragement from all our supporters, they will reach their
funding goal quickly and perhaps be able to improve on this delivery date.
