     This is a monitor, not a TV - but I LOVE it for gaming purposes as I can easily rotate the screen. I had to unscrew the rotation mechanism and flip it around so that Tate mode games play the right way up.

     Shiki is good, haven;t played that in tate mode yet. I though^[sic] Psyvariar was boring to begin with - but that was because I just didn;t 'get' the game. Now I love it. Haven;t played that in Tate yet either. Hence the need for a whizz bang TV!

     Perhaps the next generation of consoles, with more RAM, will finally give us some worthy collections. All vertical games should have 'tate' capability, Menus should be slick, with full-screen detailed adverts, commercials, interviews w/developer, etc.

     I think the small size of the screen allows the eye to take in the entire playfield, lessening the chances of dying from some unseen projectile catching your vision off guard. Plus, it's a snap to flip the monitor vertically to play in "tate" mode.

     Many would likely not orient their screen in a vertical or tate orientation (i.e, turned sideways as a vertical monitor) and many of these games do not have a rotation feature to support vertical/tate monitor orientation (although some do support it but then it means rotating the monitor to play かつ then rotating back afterward).
