The Nintendo Switch may not have a full-blown Virtual Console collection yet, but its eShop has a few emulated classics already. This week, fans finally noticed that its current, small slate of 80's and 90's games had a surprise tucked inside ever since the system's launch: a vertical orientation option.
The only classic games available for purchase on the Switch's eShop come from the Neo-Geo system, and this week's launch of Neo Turf Masters should have gone by as a minor blip. This title wasn't a major Neo-Geo hit, nor a rare curio. But for whatever reason, this game, as opposed to the other Neo-Geo games launched thus far, got someone to post video of the emulator's "display settings menu."
This revealed an "orientation of the display" option, which one user at Reddit then tested. The option allowed this redditor to rotate the game's image in 90 degree chunks.
