The voices in this game make me so genuinely happy and i don’t know why. Spike is a gem

[Biospark]

My uncle had a Vectrex with about 10 games and this was everyone's favorite game. Coolest uncle ever.

Yet another awesome retro gaming vid: concise, informative, and entertaining. Level up! Never heard of Spike. <3 the voice synthesis and game play. I must own a Vectrex someday!

[vnceigz]

I love that it uses perspective to make a 3D game. It kind of makes sense too since the Vectrex is all about lines which make perspective easy.

I love your watching your videos. Learn so much in gaming I didn’t know. 😄

[BaronVonHardcharger]

OMG! My friend Richard and I loved playing Vectrex, but I had no idea the system could do anything like this! WOW!! Thanks for sharing!

Is it just me or is Spike's voice better than most Sega Genesis voices?
Love your videos! They're way fun to watch. Keep up the great work!

When we were kids, I used to walk around the house saying “Eek! Spike! Oh no! Molly!” and “Darnit!” Good times.

I don't see too many video game mascots often. I would love to see some in the future.

Love this. Spike was a limited release game back in the day near the end of the Vectrex game run. Hard to find then and now. Great video Erin!

"Maybe Molly sucks...." lol, brutal

[shawn_]

This is awesome. My knowledge of the Vectrex universe is admittedly limited, and I’ve never heard of Spike before. The game looks like a lot of fun!

[jakek]

awesome video Erin! love the retro content

[codemeister]

I got Spike in 1984 for my Vectrex game console. Loved the game and I got pretty good about kicking the "Bouncer" (the TV with the antennas and the bouncy leg) and "The Bird". (which looks like someone rowing)

How can you not love those super realistic voices.

Finally a video game character i can easily draw on Mario Paint! Thanks again Erin for another cool video

[JenosaidoZombie]

The Vectrex looks so awesome! I’d love to own one some day.

[jeffrey]

We had a Vectrex when we were kids. Our father picked it up from a garage sale.

This whole time I've been watching your Be Right Back animation on your Twitch streams and I had no idea that Spike was a real character! I thought you made him up yourself! Even the feet shuffle sound is accurate haha. My mind is officially blown!
