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..

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.

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.
