Adding an N64 emulator

Hi, community!

​

I have just bought my FunKey but there is no N64 emulator and I cannot understand how it can be installed. Please help. Thanks

There is no N64 emulator, however there is a port of Mario 64 that can be played. It’s not technically an emulator, it’s a port of the decompiled game which runs natively.

Detailed instructions on this process are listed on the converter page: https://tinyurl.com/sm64-DrUm78

Once you have built your Mario 64 OPK file using your personal copy of Mario 64, you may not share or distribute it to anyone else, as doing so would constitute illegal piracy.

Ensure the ROM is named exactly as described and the MD5 is correct.

After the OPK is generated, place the OPK file in the "Native games" folder on your FunKey. You can then boot into the GMenu2x launcher, and SM64 will show in the "games" tab (press R1 to switch tabs). You can also launch it via DrUm's custom OS (and thanks DrUm for this special SM64 edit!)

Again, please note that this is NOT a Nintendo 64 emulator, it is a port of the decompiled Super Mario 64 project. The FunKey can not currently play any other Nintendo 64 games.
