What is Vantage?

Vantage is an acronym for Vertical ANTiquated Arcade Game Emulator.

VAntAGE is designed purely as a replacement for your 'classic' arcade board collection.

It was written to be as small and fast as possible (to keep the cost of the host PC to a minimum) and to run the arcade games 'as intended'.

With this in mind, it supports:

  • rotation (i.e. correctly oriented video)
  • screen flipping
  • cocktail modes (for all games)
  • screen video mode tweaking (see Video Mode Tweaking on home page)
  • arcade monitor output
  • various options to run 'tall' vertical games on a horizontal arcade monitor
