Check the test menu. A handful do support it in the software, but most do not. I recall Futari supporting it.

All newer CAVE games i.e. PGM & SH3 do NOY have a screen flip. Instead
they follow the industry standard.

Look on your CRT chassis for an alternate yoke connector.

I distinctly recall Futari supporting an "invert monitor" option, as I have played it on a cab with an invert monitor (Jaleco Pony Mk II 19).

There is no option in Futari (or any other SH3 game) to invert the screen.

There's no option, but there /should/ be. Still a lot of cabs left made before someone decided there was a standard, and I can't imagine a screen flip is very much effort for the hardware. Lazy, plain and simple.

its odd too cuz they have invert options in the pre-sh3 stuff

I do wonder if there's an undocumented trace jumper or similar that does it, but I've never felt like potentially exploding one finding out.

Only Cave would know that for sure. ^_~
