Here's a hardware recording of Gimmick! from an A/V modded Famicom.

On another note, I have verified that the 5B has the noise and envelope features of the YM2149F. If you want to try this yourself (i.e. if you happen to own Gimmick!) this is the code/NES/etc. I tested this with:

NSFPlay has good emulation of this chip. So does Nestopia. A lot of other emulators don't implement noise/envelope or implement them incorrectly, because the Gimmick! game didn't use them.

No, but its clock speed is really low compared to Atari ST or ZX, so it's really hard to get accurate pitches for envelope saw/triangle waves.

I discovered I'd used a very poor recording setup before, so I redid this one. Same link in OP, but will sound better this time.
