[QUOTE="Jeepfreak81, post: 8222843, member: 93888"]Oh I remember pong, I had it on my Atari 2600. I guess I can buy that as the reason for it. It's not visually appealing to me that way only because it puts the text at a 90 deg. angle. I agree though, design flaw on this....but everyone has an opinion I suppose. :) edit - after taking another look, I stand by my original statement. It looks to me like the "pong" section is only in the top half and in this orientation it's currently being played vertically based on the position of the ball and paddles. Side note - there's an aracade in NH about an hours drive from me...largest in the world (not sure if it's largest overall or largest classic games).
