Due to the availability of development tools such as an [https://doc.funkey-project.com/developer_guide/tutorials/build_system/build_program_using_sdk/ SDK], several native programs have been created for or ported to the FunKey S. An extensive list of such programs can be found [[List of third-party OPK applications|here]], with applications, emulators, and games being the primary program types.

In considering a system to be potentially emulatable at some point for the purposes of this article, it must meet two criteria. Firstly, it must have an open source, ARM-based emulator for Linux available for it. While this doesn't guarantee that such an emulator would be compatible, it remains a step in porting any emulator to the similarly ARM-based, Linux-powered FunKey S. Secondly, in taking the technical limitations of the FunKey S into account, any system that is unlikely to be emulatable at full or near-full speed should be excluded, as the purpose of listing consoles above is to document functional game compatibility. The following is a list of systems excluded for that reason:

As it has been found that versions of the ''MAME'' emulator (including ''MESS'') other than ''MAME 2000'' do not function at a sufficient speed on the FunKey S, systems emulated by ''MAME'' must have an alternate qualifying emulator to be considered for inclusion. As several unemulated consoles have LibRetro cores that failed to properly load via the ''SDL Retro'' frontend of the FunKey S, assuming that such a system also meets the second requirement listed above, it is underlined on the list below. Lastly, as the current system of emulating the [[w:BBC Micro|BBC Micro]] and [[w:ZX Spectrum|ZX Spectrum]] via meta-emulation is less than ideal, those systems have been additionally added to the list below should any qualifying emulators available for them be portable. The following is a list of systems that are believed to meet the defined criteria:

This section links to lists of games for systems that the FunKey S can officially emulate. These games can either be freeware, meaning that they are free to download for use in emulators, or commercial, meaning that they are currently being sold in a digital or physical format. In order for a game to be emulated on the FunKey S, its ROM file must be placed within the folder of the system that is being emulated. While all freeware games listed have their ROM files available to download for free, the purchase of many of the commercial games listed does not grant the buyer direct access to the ROM files of those games. Despite this, for physical copies of games and some digital game collections, there are third-party tools available to allow users to extract the ROMs of the games that they purchased, so such tools will be listed where available.
