The Vectrex is a vector-screen home video game console, the only one ever designed and marketed for the home market, developed by Smith Engineering. It was first released to the North American market in November 1982, followed by Europe and Japan in 1983. Originally manufactured by General Consumer Electronics, it was later licensed to Milton Bradley after the acquisition of the society. Bandai released the system in Japan.
The Vectrex, unlike other video game systems of the time, did not need to be hooked up to a television. It has a built-in monochrome CRT monitor. A removable wired control pad can be folded into the lower base of the console. Games include translucent color overlays to place on the screen. Peripherals include a pair of 3D glasses called a "3D Imager" and a lighted stylus for drawing directly on the screen. The asteroid-inspired mine storm is built into the system.
