Upside-down cakes are pretty much what they sound like - cakes that are upside down.
The cake mixture is made as normal but, before it is poured into the pan in which is is cooked, chopped fruit is placed in the base. Then the mixture is poured on top of the fruit. This means that, once the cake is cooked and removed from the pan, the chopped fruit is now on the top of the cake as a decorative topping.
In pineapple upside down cake, the fruit that is used is, of course, pineapple. Pineapple (which is actually a multiple fruit comprised of many berries) is skinned and, usually, sliced when it is used. The pineapple upside-down cake is a traditional American dish.
