The ZX Spectrum is Back

Retro gamers rejoice! The new crowdfunded Sinclair ZX Spectrum Vega is ready to go into production.

The first run will be of 1,000 units for those that funded the project, then a run of 3,000, the plan after that is to move onto 10,000 units or more depending on demand.

Retro Computers, the company behind the reboot, expect the current retail price of £100 to fall as the units manufactured increases.

The Sinclair ZX Spectrum Vega plugs straight into your Tv, comes with around 1,000 built-in games ? which will load instantly, and there?s extra memory available to add even more games. You read that correctly, the games will load instantly.

Does not impress me at all. Check out this old'n'good project: Hobby computer ZX Evolution

It's an ATX form factor computer (4 Mb RAM, 512Kb ROM, Floppy, IDE etc) which is fully compatible with original Speccy, ZX Spectrum 128 and with many hardware extensions for advanced graphics and sound. Watch the demo for the base config model:
