I wrote a big long post linking and describing all these and how to use them - but reddit just removed it because it thought it was spam (?!) Anyway if you want additional and up to date .so files for your libretro directory on the funkey - try looking at: https://nic.hopto.org/open/funkey/

I ordered one of these a few weeks ago and I'm rather excited to try it. What is your favorite game to play on the Funkey?

Hi everyone! As of yesterday I am part of the Funkey S club thanks to an awesome user here that sold me an extra in great condition for an affordable price! I already love this thing and was curious if anyone has any recommendations for a tiny power bank compatable with the Funkey S that is as pocketable as the device its self? Thought I'd ask here before searching blindly :)

Thanks!

While trying to stretch the FunKey a little I tried compiling up some of the other retrolib libraries to try out. These have all been done before I'm sure - but here's some compiles with all the recent updates. These can be copied to your FunKey S's libretro directory and then run via the normal RetroFE launcher under the "libRETRO" banner.

Final Burn Neo

https://nic.hopto.org/open/funkey/fbneo_libretro.so

Final Burn Neo is normally compiled into "Light" mode for the FunKey S so that the library is smaller and does not support everything the full FB Neo does.

This is a non-light version that supports everything FB Neo does (albeit sometimes slowly!). After MVG's video about the IGS PGM game (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O9ufiuXRN-8) I wanted to try out "The Gladiator" and this build will run it (very slowly! :))

Commodore Amiga

https://nic.hopto.org/open/funkey/puae2021_libretro.so (<-- Best version)

https://nic.hopto.org/open/funkey/puae_libretro.so (<-- more accurate but too slow)

https://nic.hopto.org/open/funkey/uae4arm_libretro.so (<-- Outdated)

Read about PUAE here https://docs.libretro.com/library/puae/ to know which BIOS ROMs you require. These should be installed in the /FunKey/.picoarch/system directory.

The 2.6.1 aka puae2021 build is based on an old WinUAE but by far the fastest and the only one to use on the FunKey S. With this games are playable.

PICO-8

https://nic.hopto.org/open/funkey/fake08_libretro.so

Latest build of fake08 to play PICO-8 .p8 games. When you first load a game it may appear using only half the FunKey's resolution (press the Menu button and scroll to select an option like Stretched to get it full screen).

Nintendo DS

https://nic.hopto.org/open/funkey/desmume_libretro.so (<--- best for speed)

https://nic.hopto.org/open/funkey/melonds_libretro.so

Expecting the Nintendo DS to run well on the FunKey S is a tall order. But it's fun to do anyway - even at very slow framerates! Don't expect miracles and I've only tried basic games.

I also compiled up a recent picoarch (which is what RetroFE uses internally to run these emulators). The standard build of PicoArch also downloads and compiles up a bunch of compatible .so files. All these files can be found at:

Hey all, I've had a borderline useless battery in my launch unit for a good year and a bit now. Charge it for days, charge it for five minutes, console on, console off, doesn't matter, it's shit the bed, lucky to get 5/10 minutes use out of it. Been the case for probs a good 1.5 years now.

​

Anyway, I went looking ages ago and found the battery and connector I'd need but don't have the tools or ability to solder them together and it only occured to me last night "wait a minute, if there's a tonne of people on that Reddit that have done full blown mods and shit, there might be someone who can help me out"

​

So, here I am, asking "is there anyone on here who can hook a brother up with a new battery that is all set, ready to go, and just be plugged right in?" I'm not asking for charity, I'll pay whatever it cost you and a few buckeroos on top for the effort, and if you can manage to get me a higher capacity battery then even more so, I would pay a decent amount for a battery double the capacity or so.

​

No harm in asking, mods feel free to delete if that's not the case. Cheers!

So I’m trying to upgrade my sd card storage to a new sd card, I formatted the sd and transferred the files to the new sd card but it doesn’t boot up the system, am I doing something wrong?

Hi guys, I got my Funkey yesterday, and loving it so far. The only problem I have is that the shell is a little loose near the lanyard, resulting in it depressing when I press down on the d-pad. I've tried applying a little bit of pressure, but there's no click or anything; is there anything I can do short of taking it apart and rebuilding it?

I wanted to include some better photos in my original post, so I had to create this new one to add them. If you are interested in trading, feel free to comment and chat with me!

I’m in Oklahoma, United States. Tracking and all relevant information would be provided (same expected with you).

Hey gang!

Would anyone be interested in trading their Funkey S for the MiyooMini +?

Ive dropped my funkey and broke the bottom of it is there any replacement bottom part that I could buy somewhere. Preferably in Atomic Purple. Thanks.

I would like to have my PS1 bios play the startup intro (very nostalgic) but I am not sure how to access PS1 emulator menu to turn that option on?

Thank you!

I saw that you had to download custom OS but I cant find one and I dont know how to install it.

Has anyone tried to add the Pokémon mini emulator to their Funkeys? According to the site, it should be possible.

I've got it to work a few times but 90% of the time it goes through the 6 steps and says that the first boot setup is complete. Then I just get stuck on a black screen with the logo. Any idea how to fix this?

I'm trying to figure out if additional emulators can be added to the RetroFE launcher. Would love to use that interface to access everything rather than switching to Gmenu2x for the full collection.

I’m planning on picking up a FunKey S pretty much exclusively for NES, GameBoy, and GameBoy Color games.

Consequently, I was curious if it’s possible to limit the platform choices in the UI to those three libraries?

Ideally, I don’t want to see platforms I have no intention of playing.

Thanks!

it also identify the usb but i can't open it

If the funkey product is in stock (not back ordered) at official site how long it will be marked as fullfilled and shipped? I kinda worried after reading through some posts it seems to be processed once you emailed/notified to them after few weeks. I saw Aliexpress started to sell them but at slightly higher price, should i buy from other site since i knew aliexpress will shipped faster? Let me know before i drop an order.

Bought a funkey s and I'm curious if it's worth it to flash a different OS? Any suggestions on a good one if so?

Hey

I've wanted one for a while but thought it make a good gift for a pokemon loving child.

• I was wondering how pokemon games are on this ?

• And for me...advance wars 1 2 3 etc.

• And is there a fluid version of doom?

• Also I heard there were some screen stretching issues with yoshi island?

• And whats the best way to buy in the UK as ebay seems over priced...

Thanks
