Emulator issues
#2
Whenever you say "all games boot back to the menu," my first thought is that you are missing a BIOS file (or that you have the wrong one). This can be tricky and not necessarily obvious. For example, the Neo Geo page (https://github.com/retropie/retropie-setup/wiki/Neo-Geo) tells you to put the BIOS file with your game files. Other emulators want their BIOS file in the BIOS folder.

I will say that the arcade games are notoriously tricky to work with. Often they are based on MAME and you need to be quite sure that you have the proper MAME version of a game for the exact version of the emulator you're using.

If you are using the same game files as you do on your Raspberry Pi 3, then you would want to be sure that you are using the same emulator on both machines. When you choose a game, you can hit the A button (while it's starting) to get the runcommand menu. In there, you can choose which emulator to use. It could be that your RPi3 system is set to use a different emulator than the Freeplay CM3 is.

As for N64, see if you are using one of the emulators that starts with "lr-". That will mean that it's compiled for use with "LibRetro" and then it will take the inputs from RetroArch/EmulationStation. Otherwise, (like if you're using Mupen64plus, see https://github.com/retropie/retropie-set...intendo-64) it will need to have its own controls configured.

I think there's a lot of technical info at https://github.com/retropie/retropie-set...intendo-64 that can really help get N64 controls mapped in Mupen64plus, but it's fairly involved. I'd try using the "lr-" emulators first and see how that goes for you.
