What snes emu to use for a vertical cab?
« on: December 10, 2015, 07:42:44 pm »
I have a vertical cab and I'm trying to figure out how to get snes working on it. I've tried both snes9x and znes but neither seem to have a screen rotation option.

Any help?

I just decided to redo the layout and rotate windows instead of having mala and mame auto rotate. Now I just need to figure out how to configure a snes emulator to look right.

Sound like you already figured out your own problem but if not, check out RetroArch.

It's the only Emulator front end out there that I know of that lets you rotate a NES/SNES screen 90 degrees.
If you can read this, it means Photobucket's money grab ruined my signature photos.

Is it available on windows? I've only used it on pi installations and it wasn't the easiest thing to use.


I didn't solve my problem but I did find a solution. I've decided to run windows in portrait mode and I simply recreated my layout to fit.

yes, retroarch works on Windows.

You can learn how to set it up here:
