Apple now allows retro game emulators on its App Store
Tangentially related: if anybody is looking for a good way to organize a library of retro emulators and games on their MacOS laptops/desktop computers then I recommend OpenEmu. It is designed from the ground up to look and feel like a Mac app.

Mac/OS OpenEmu - Any way to automatically map PS5 controller for all systems?
Just follow the link i posted. Btw you can build OpenEmu in a couple of minutes yourself. Some controllers (PS5 for example) are natively supported, more shader options, and other small stuff..

Couldn't communicate with a helper application

Analog Stick AND D-Pad at the Same Time?
As far as I know, devs have no plans to allow multiple bindings to the same inputs. It is apparently too complicated for them to implement. See: https://github.com/OpenEmu/OpenEmu/issues/4600

How do I play TurboGrafx 16 in 2023?
The Pocket is a great device, highly recommended, get the Dock if you want to buy one. While waiting, I recommend using https://openemu.org/ on your Mac to run "roms", which are files that represent old games. To get the ROMs, google for "tubrografx roms archive.org". Then for a controller on a Mac, you can use a PS4/PS5 or Xbox (One/Series), if you have one lying around. That said, I recommend buying an SN30 Pro.

Yeah should be pretty easy if you have the ISO or a disc copy, OpenEmu should do it without issue - https://openemu.org

Emulators
Otherwise you can try OpenEmu: it's a very Mac friendly emulator of a lot of old systems that works by dragging/dropping the roms in it. The "Experimental" (direct link) build includes support of Mame, which means support of Neo Geo roms.

Please read the FAQ before asking questions about the emulator.

RDR Re-Master coming for PC?
I wish they could be fixed but they can't. You're thinking of the audio latency problem that Canary can fix with a config edit. There is no cure for these issues: https://github.com/xenia-project/xenia/issues/1515

Can someone assist me with this error.
The only further advice I can give is directly from the xenia git which says to read the following page. https://github.com/xenia-project/xenia/wiki/Quickstart and make sure meet everything here, and do whatever they suggest.
