      I'm running an RPI 4 with a 3.5A/5V CanaKit power supply and RetroPie 4.6 installed from the image on your site. I've tried playing several Sega Genesis ROMs and they're all very slow.

      I've installed Lakka on RPI 4s in the past and they run Genesis ROMs just fine. Is there something special I need to configure in RetroPie? Thank you.

        @feanor512 Please provide more details of your set-up as detailed here

        If you have a 4k screen, you should force to 1080p via raspi-config.
