Vertical Jamma on a Horizontal Monitor??
« on: March 28, 2009, 11:50:17 pm »
I'm curious. is there a way to convert a vertical jamma game so that it rotates 90 deg and will play correctly on a horizonal monitor?
Has anyone out there done this?

No.

If you are talking about a true JAMMA board, your game will be sideways.
Otherwise you have to physically rotate the entire monitor.

MAME...... that's a whole nother story.
Not a technician . . . . just a DIY'er.

Yep a true Jamma, Cool, thanks Kevin, I didn't think you could, but I wasn't 100%.
