        Its the uk name for the Genesis. Is it a real issue for you?

          @rayvearn what theme are you using?

          @grant2258 having grown up with the genesis and TurboGrafx, I always switch these two in my RetroPie builds as well.

                @rayvearn did you try this from the docs? it's always worked for me

                Don't forget to update the Genesis emulators (lr-genesis-plus-gx and lr-picodrive), that's always been my "why isn't this working this time?" mistake.
