41 is approximately the number of original game releases which are now all freeware (officially made freeware by the current copyright owners). The rest are made up of scene demos, homebrew and hacks of those free games. There is a ton of great stuff made by homebrewers.
Google "Vectrex Tosec" and you'll find links to rom sets on Archive.org that are bigger than Mames, but does have junk in (bad dumps, clone dumps etc).
Better still, search for "Vectrex DrSnuggles" for a very large rom collection, all downloadable via this guys online java emulator github page. This DrSnuggles set is as good as i've found online and only contains freely distributable roms (but thats pretty much all of them). You'll have to hunt around for any stragglers. Some come from a Vectrex fans facebook group where the most prolific homebrewers hang out.
281 have been collected from many sources over the last couple of months, a lot of work, even using wayback machine to get some of them...

What an awesome set of files. 3 sets, comprising 2D Carts, 3D carts and 3D boxes. These areas in the Vectrex art were so poor, now they can be 100% filled and unified. Great stuff. All downloaded, putting them into place now!
