Vector-based Arcade Games of the 80′s

That is cool! I only had the demo disc with it on and didn't realize it was unlockable on the full game as well as the other arcade games. Why did I sell my GameCube again. . . . 

Not only that  - the disc also has a 2 player co-op version of the Rogue Squadron 2. Pretty cool.

This is one vector game I've never played, Major Havoc.  It really looks like a fantastic game.  According to Wikipedia it was released in March 2011 as a port on Nintendo DS as part of the Atari's Greatest Hits Vol. 2 collection.  There never were any ports to retro systems, though.

I have Atari's Greatest Hits Vol. 2 for the DS and have played Major Havoc a few times. Cool game with two completely different types of stages.

Same as, I really like it! Shame the updated Jaguar version never came out 

[TrekMD]

Shame indeed!  I'm sure it would have been great!  It would have also been an exclusive title for the console!

This is another vector Atari arcade game and also one that features on one of the Atari collections for the Nintendo DS:

That is cool! That game looks like it could be ported to the Vectrex!

I remember playing the game. Just not sure it was called Red Baron. I agree, TrekMD. Looks like a good candidate for the Vectrex.

The original arcade version of Omega Race, another game the received raster based home ports:

Omega Race vector arcade game from 1981.

Omega Race is a fun game.  It was never officially ported to the Vectrex but there is Omega Chase, a clone of the game with some extras.
