If a game is a Jamma VERT, is it right side up as a standard?

My galaga 1981 board displays upside down with an adaptor. Just wondering if the new Galaga Jamma boards are the same way.

Thanks.

Hard wiring is not an option right now.

Does anyone have Galaga on a Jamma board to give me a first hand factual answer?


Thanks Toodddyyyy, I checked the dip switches but none of them have an effect on the way the video is displayed.

Didnt realise galaga was released with jamma connect.
The original is pre jamma and needs a convertor patch plug/socket

Yes there are a couple of Jamma new releases since 2000 for Galaga, and a combo pack for Galaga/ms pacman as well.

All my verts that are jamma are right side up! Anything pre jamma that ive got is upside down. So im wondering if "jamma" means it will be display the right side up automatically.

only one way to find out

edit- I have some jamma boards that are inverted, but usually a dip will fix that, if not then a switch on the deflection yoke wiring. Most of the non jamma boards I have are plug and play with no mod.
