A simple adapter for rotating the DB15 joystick input 90 degrees right to play vertical titles on standard TV's.
The game will still play horizontal but now the joystick will match movement directions.
Built with a kit available from RSOnline or you can solder your own with a DB15 to DB15 gender changer shell, 1 male and 1 female DB15 solder cup connectors and some wire.
The kit comes with crimped wire connectors so is quicker and easier to put together.
