Thanks for reaching out br0f. Please forgive the long list of questions 🙏

What model number is your Saturn?

What model number is your Fenrir?

What model memory card are you using in your Fenrir?

What version of Fenrir firmware are you using?

Have you followed any Fenrir troubleshooting guides?

Have you modified the game's files in any way (rename, delete, conversion tool etc). ?

Have you tried redownloading and recopying the game to the Fenrir memory card?

Does your Saturn have any other mods beside the Fenrir?

Do you have any accessories inserted into the cartridge port or expansion port (Pseudo Saturn, Action Replay, 4MB Expansion, Backup Cart, Video CD card etc.)?

Is your Saturn battery healthy?

If you erase your save game from the Saturn system menu (considering you're only on the first checkpoint of the training level) does this fix the issue?

If you load V1.001 or V1.000, and let the Saturn sit for 2 minutes, does the game eventually start?

Do other games work on your Fenrir?

Do the shoulders buttons consistently not work whenever you bootup the game, or did this only happen once?

How many times have you tried booting V1.002 overall?

No problem on the questions, I definitely could’ve included more information

Saturn model number: HST-3220

Fenrir model number: not sure if this is it, but it says “rev 2.3 2022” near the card slot. Menu says it’s Fenrir 20 pins.

SD card: Sandisk imagemate microSD XC card, 128gb

Fenrir firmware:  1.5.8

I haven’t followed any fenrir troubleshooting guides yet but that might be a good place to start.

I have a pseudo Saturn Kai in the cartridge port and no other mods to the console besides fenrir.

I replaced the system memory battery fairly recently. 

I have tried reloading the game onto the SD card, same results. Deleting the save game had no effect either. 

Every game I’ve tried except for Last Bronx and this one  has worked flawlessly on the fenrir.

I tried loading 1.000 and it did eventually make it to the intro and menu after a long load but it hung on “now loading”

I tried booting 1.002 at least 5 times. Most times it also fails to get past the loading screen after selecting a new character. It only made it to the training room twice, and both times the shoulder buttons did not function.

Thanks br0f,

some things you could try:

You could try removing the Psuedo Saturn Kai and loading the game straight from the official Fenrir interface to see if that makes a difference.

If you're using the Fenrir Loader Kai in the Fenrir, you could try reverting to the official Fenrir interface.

V1.001 and V1.000 had known long load times on Fenrir - this was fixed in V1.002. You may need to wait around 2 minutes for the game to load a level on these older versions. You could try loading up V1.001, giving it that 2 minutes to boot and load a level, and seeing if the experience is any different - this may give me some clues on further things I could look into.
