[QUOTE="TerryRed, post: 242915, member: 5962"] PC Vertical / Portrait Games There are some PC games out there that actually do support a vertical / portrait layout. Some are basically arcade ports and some are original. they are either Steam games or normal PC Games such as: -Crimson Clover -Ikaruga -Mushihimesama -Raiden III -Raiden IV Overkill -Ice Cold Beer -Zeke's Peak Ice Cold Beer / Zeke's Peak required me using Pinnacle Game Profiler for my P1 joystick and XPadder for my P2 Joystick... but it works perfect together. the others just worked normally and gave you rotate options for your screen. Then there are the Windows 10 Store Games. These are originally tablet / phone type games that work with keyboard / mouse or gamepad controls. I basically had my P2 joystick and buttons act like a mouse for these games in case it was needed. Since these don't have a normal .EXE file to reference, in order to get these to run with Pinnacle Game Profiler for mapped controls.... I had to run this command: %windir%\explorer.exe shell:::{4234d49b-0245-4df3-b780-3893943456e1} Then create a shorcut for the games from the window that opens. Create a .BAT file that "Starts" the Pinnacle Game Profile (persistent) manually for your game via command line... then it opens the *.lnk shorcut you created for your game. Use this .BAT file with Rocketlauncher via Pinball X (I open all my PC games with Pinball X using RocketLauncher) Have your "Launch After" run another .BAT file that "Stops" your Pinnacle Game Profiler manually. These games look and play great when setup correctly. Games such as: Crossy Road Despicable Me Sonic Dash Like MAME, I added control panel pics in the middle screen where possible. Here's a video showing some of these games in action in Pinball X.

I know I can also run Android games through Blue Stacks and other programs (I have done so on my normal PC), but that may come at a later time. [/QUOTE]
