I'm on rog ally I've installed the bios did bio checker all looks good but none of my games run. I literally don't know what to do. Every other system runs great except neogeo cd. Even got the ps4 emulator to run although I only get 9fps but I'm pretty sure that's my hardware cap. Thank you if anyone can help me trouble shoot the saturn problem
 
I don't have a device to test personally, but I imagine it isn't a hardware limitation. I assume it uses Retroarch for Saturn emulation, but there's two different options, Beetle or Kronos. I'd probably double-check which one it's running, Kronos has less compatibility.

Otherwise, check their wiki and consider posting an issue on the Retroarch github if the problem continues.
 
Recently after updating Batocera tons of emulators broke.

Then i figured out, i had to specify the Graphical API for it to use (on every single one, rather than a default on all of them...), which will be OpenGL or Vulkan (though there may be others). Check and see if that doesn't help.
 
From what I can tell, emudeck doesn't use a standalone Saturn emulator, so it's using one in retroarch. I've had good luck with the Beetle core (Android-based RP5).

Can you get to the retroarch menu and download different saturn cores?
