The humming is not actually a problem with it, it's due to the earlier models not having rf shielding around the power supply causing interference, it's not damaging :o)

The Vectrex has to be one of the coolest systems ever, I still want one :o)

Hey, I see a signed dreamcast there, who signed it out of curiosity?

@RetroGamerVX It's signed by Adam Sessler and Kate Botello. Both are/were hosts of G4's X-play (known as Extended Play at the time). Morgan Webb replaced Kate in like 2002. Anyway, it was signed when they came to my city in 2000. They couldn't believe I wanted a console signed :p

I wonder if you can go through a whole day without using the word "essentially"? LOL!....just kidding! I'm probably going to purchase a Vectrex tomorrow,so I've been scouring utube for info. Looks like the controller is a common weak spot.

@lilmul123 Wow, amazing stuff, yes, I would love to get one of mine signed, but unless it's permanent ink, would be a pain in the ass to clean lol

Great vid. Love the Vetrex. You could have some "moving color" if you had the 3D imager actually, which was also the first home 3D game peripheral (predating the SMS 3D glasses).
