      Pulled up my log for failed Dreamcast booting, and the lines that stick out are:

      terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::logic_error'
      what(): basic_string::_S_construct null not valid
      /opt/retropie/emulators/reicast/bin/reicast.sh: line 05: 25431 Aborted

      ...sounds like a source code error is preventing correctly-configured Reicast from launching. How should I fix this?

          Yes I do. It's part of a Picade cabinet, actually.

            @TonyTheTGR does it map as a keyboard though? Try updating RetroPie-Setup and reinstalling reicast. You may need to many configure it.

              Okay! It finally boots up, but now it doesn't recognize my Picade stick as a controller. It's called an "Arduino Leonardo;" is there a way to configure Reicast to support it? Thank you very much.

                Probably yes, it's described in the Wiki:
