I realize there are extra boards in an EDOT, but theoretically couldn't the ROMS for the upright Discs of Tron work on Tron hardware with some modifications?

Just curious if anyone has pursued a multi-kit option for Tron. I guess the biggest limiter would be the difference in vertical versus horizontal setup.

It's been discussed a bunch of times, and if someone were to do it there are plenty of other mcr games that use the joystick and spinner that 'should/would' be considered hopefully.
 
Even if possible, you wouldn't be able to play DOT in Tron, but you might be able to play Tron in a DOT due to the spinner.
 
Horizontal vs. Vertical is an uncrossable abyss outside of emulation. You basically have to rewrite the entire game to change the orientation. There are a few orientation hacks out there, but they involve rotating a couple sprites and a title screen, Tron and DOT would not at all be a candidate for that as they have definite directional gameplay that can't simply be rotated 90 degrees.
