    I actually have one of these, its pretty cool but its really uncomfortable and it just rests on the tip of your nose and vibrates. If you tilt your head too much while playing it likes to grind a ring onto the colors wheels like an early xbox 360. 3D Narrow Escape definitely has the best 3D effect. Sadly 3D Pole Position never came out.

    I bought a vectrex not long after his first review of one. I only paid $80. sadly a year later I had to sell it for about that amount. man, do I regret it! now they go for $250+!!! Stupid! Stupid!!

    That's pretty wild. I somehow missed this review because I would have definitely watched Mark talk about a Vectrex product! I love how tentative Mark is about putting on the 3D Imager. It does look like a torture device from the other side.

    That's sooo true, why would anybody buy a ps4 vr headset if they could just buy a vectrex 3D imager, it's such special headset since it turns the b&w crt vectrex screen into a virtual 3D color screen in a cheap way.

    So this thing sort of works like modern LCD shutter glasses. But is the disk just attached to a DC motor that just spins on its own, or is it synced up to the CPU clock via PWM so the frequency matches the refresh rate?

    The imager is going for 1,600 on Ebay now and there's one listing for 1,000,000 that states that it was never used and still new in the box. Sadly, I don't think I'll ever add one to my collection. But I do have 2 Vectrex consoles. I just played a game of Minestorm with my 4 year old. She actually made it past the first level.
