    They're totally different technologies. The Laseractive goggles are compatible with the SMS style, that shutter-effect. The Vectrex is a three-color wheel.

    Prognosis negative!

    Er, Joe... did you really want your title to be "Rottin' Tootin'"? It sounds like the world's nastiest smelling fart.

    It's an inside joke.

    to put this back on topic, the goggles can be used on the SMS. SMS II or just SMS I?

    ANY model. It's completely compatible with all 3D games. I know because John and I spent some time with both the Laseractive and SMS 3D glasses extensively - a little too extensively, and something that if there were pictures taken I'm sure we'd be blackmailed with them. The good news is that the 3D effect is MUCH better on the SMS. The LaserActive 3D is kinda lame. I think it's just easier to apply that technology to video game graphics than it is for live images.
