Vectrex rules!

Recently got a Vectrex with Scramble and Star Trek carts. Only Scramble worked(and of course the built in Minestorm).

Ordered VecMulti microSD flash cart from Richard Hutchinson and have been enjoying the hell out of it!
Many awesome homebrews and all the rest of the library--awesome!

Anyway I got a little bored and decided to go deeper into making the non-functional Star Trek cart work.
I had already cleaned the contacts like crazy so I opened the cart and voila! I found a corroded trace right next to the cart connector.

Scraped a little bit and soldered a jumper around the corrosion and...ta-da! It works now!

First ever successful cart repair for any system for me!

The Vectrex rules! I have wanted one of these systems for nearly 30 years.

Now if that one guy will whip up a few more homebrew light pens(crossing my fingers for CGE 2011!) I will have fully satisfied my childhood yearnings. Man but I am dying to draw on the screen of my Vectrex!

Gotta mod a genesis controller for 2 player goodness as well. Anybody got tips for easiest/best way?
I have done some research but was curious about others experiences.

Anyway
one happy Vectrex owner signing off...
