Had SNES and GBA support working out the box fine but , after fiddling trying to get Genesis to work on retroarch or with a launcher, no roms would play for genesis or would play with no video.

Now i have no video on snes and gba as well.

So i cant even play those.

So the out of the box functionality of snes and gameboy is broken now. Anyone have any advice as to how , other than having to format the entire memory card to fix it?

Or could it be something with the battery being low, that is causing no video to come up. Idk.

Its charging now. So when full i could try again but all i know is."

No video on snes or gb now and basically, no games playable. I just dont understand why it stopped working whent hose emulators were working fine before. and i didnt change any configuration of them.

Okay, got it working. Thought I’d let anyone else know if they find this thread.

I just reinstalled retroarch using these commands:

Close RetroArch, SSH into your GS and then do  
cd ~/.config/retroarch  
rm retroarch.cfg  
wget [https://raw.githubusercontent.com/clockworkpi/GameShellDocs/master/retroarch.cfg](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/clockworkpi/GameShellDocs/master/retroarch.cfg)

from this thread [(Solved) Help here, retroarch.cfg needed](https://forum.clockworkpi.com/t/solved-help-here-retroarch-cfg-needed/2271)

Got video back … For now. Wont try setting up megadrive again probably lol . I seemed to have issues getting genesis megadrive working on my GS. Would like to get it working acuse i love the genesis library (earthworm jim, alladin) which are better than the snes versions.
