I recently got an NEC XM29 and I'm converting all my old consoles to RGB. One of my reasons for getting this monitor is that it's so easy to rotate. Does anyone know of a list of all the tateable console games? Mostly looking for shmups, but also interested in knowing if any of the old arcade game compilations rotate. (Namco museum, etc)
Thanks!
List of TATEable games?

I don't think such a list has ever been compiled, but as a general rule most Japanese vertical-screen arcade shmup ports from the PS1/Saturn era onward have a tate option, with a few exceptions - the opposite goes for US versions, as a few have tate but many don't. I don't know much about the compilations in general - I think the Namco PS1 collections have it, but the Capcom PS2 ones don't, for instance.
I couldn't find any list using google or searching here and other gaming forums. I'm going to check through all the likely candidates in my game library soon and make a list for myself. I'll post my list in this thread in case anyone is interested.
Seems like it would be a useful list to have as a sticky or wiki entry or something. I probably own 20+ games that I remember seeing a tate option. Now that I can actually use it, I can't find a list to reference which games.
