The Vectrex definitely had a good soundchip. What all games have some good tunes, even if they're just the title screen pieces? Although it sounded more fitting for a science fiction-themed game, the Vector 21 theme is good. I also let the Vaboom! and Vecmania tunes go on for a while as well at times when I was dusting my room or something (and the latter secret thank you page with the Bach Prelude [think it is] is also decent). After seeing the first video of Vector Pilot (thanks, vectrexmad ) that music went through my head for a few days. The title screen music for Moon Lander is a good, fittingly Russian-sounding tune too. Also, some demo pieces are good too, like the Doctor Who theme. Probably the Axel F and I imagine the take on Madonna's "Get Into the Groove" are decent too, just never bothered downloading them though.

The same sound chip was also used in the Amstrad CPC, ZX Spectrum 128k and the Atari ST so it might be worth looking up some of those systems games on YouTube if you like that style of sound. Stuff like this for example: www.youtube.com/watch?v=xHJ4z5loF8U

The Vector Pilot theme is incredible. It really blew some of my friends away to hear that coming from a Vectrex.

The title screen music to the two full new games (at the time) on Vectopia (Wormhole and Trakkers) are good too, btw.
