      I've set up the Nostalgia Pure Lite theme on my RetroPie. I'd like to have the PC Engine, VideoPac and Megadrive display as their US counterparts. Therefore, I've created a platforms.cfg file in the /configs/all/ directory named platforms.cfg with contents:

      videopac_theme="odyssey2"
      videopac_platform="odyssey2"
      megadrive_theme="genesis"
      megadrive_platform="genesis"
      pcengine_theme="tg16"
      pcengine_platform="tg16"

      However, RetroPie still displays these consoles as PC Engine, VideoPac and Megadrive. Are there any other steps I need to follow in order to make the change?

        After you make those changes, it is necessary to update the emulator packages for those systems in RetroPie-Setup to trigger the change.
