I have a soft-spot for the light-saber sound of Qix, but that’s partially due to the hardware. The board used two 6809Es on opposite clock phases to run the game and graphics, and a 6802 to do the sound. The weirdest thing about the board was the stuff that was missing: a speech chip, a serial port, and stereo sound. (Nothing in the ROMs that used those.)
