Yes, Mega Drive roms need to be renamed. This isn't actually stated in the official documentation so isn't obvious and does require some searching. Loads of people on the forum believe that Sonic 3 & Knuckles doesn't work because of this.

Does anyone know how to change emulator settings such as apect ratio, toggle billinear filtering on and off etc.?
Also, how do I access the difficulty setttings for the games? For example, in Retroarch, you can access "Diagnostic Input" which takes you to the cabinet's configuration screen. Is this possible in this pfba version on Switch?

Anyone else have an issue where quitting forces the joycons into that 2 player mode where you use them on their sides?

Hey, I’m loving the emulator, most of the games I tried on it run perfectly. I have just a few questions though.

First, 1 game I’m trying to run on it, (mega drive) streets of rage 2, actually runs faster than it’s supposed to. This is strange because none of the other mega drive games I’ve run on pFBA run at their normal speed. Is there a way to enable vsync or some sort of frame limiter?

One more minor problem I’m having is that I can’t figure out how to use multiple controllers for multiplayer.

But other than that, this is probably the best emulator on 5.0.X (not like there’s too much competition) and a great arcade and mega drive/sms/game gear emulator, keep up the good work!

I don't think multiple controllers are supported yet. Only remapping split joycons for 2 people.
