An cheap and dirty test of this would be to reverse the X & Y inputs,
reduce the output levels before you turn on hte game, but the screen
will be a right angles to normal, but at least you can eliminate the
board as a suspect. You only need to move two wires on the monitor board
to get this result. This is for those of us too lazy to pull out a
scope.
I would suspect you have missed a cracked solder trace on your monitor
mother board. Please resolder ALL the connections on the underside of
the monitor motherboard to reomve this lingering doubt.
