I'd be a lot more impressed to see tetris on the Vectrex. That's a  
lot of stuff to keep going on a real vector display.

Here's one, but it apparently uses raster mode to display the blocks:

As for the original demo, it's interesting, but being able to  
distribute it as a .flac file somehow makes it seem less cool. It  
might be interesting to compress it to MP3 (with joint stereo both on  
and off) and see what difference it makes.
