Interesting, but a Vectrex without a vector display is like a fish without water.

At least they went with OLED, which is as close as you can get with technology that's still in mass production. It would be a crime to use LCD for this.
But the resolution is too low to do it justice. They’d need a high dpi display with crazy good beam emulation to be even close to pulling off something acceptable. Just can’t see it with this.
It’s a 5 inch display. 800x600 in that size is hard to see already.

What I’m curious is how far they can push the brightness and how quickly the processor can fade the whole frame buffer.
