Title: I rotated my monitor to vertical and it changed my life!
Post by: Generic Eric on November 25, 2014, 02:41:52 pm: I purchased a TT2 so I thought I would rotate my monitor for some arkanoid. It changed my life. So good.

Of course the wide screen wouldn't fit, so I put in a 4:3 19" LCD. So my cabinet is in further disrepair, but I still have to play some Donkey Kong. I have a zippy 4 way that I will install on the player 2 section. Again not ideal, but Qix will play better too!

Good on you for seeing the light, brother.

Popped the hood and recalled that I altered the base of the joysticks. This may have to wait until a new panel is cut after all. Such is such. Which won't be for a while at this rate.

It's more weird to play vertical games on a horizontal orientation monitor. :lol
