== Accessibility hacks == <!--T:46-->
 
=== Hazard removal === <!--T:47-->
 
<!--T:48-->
This section lists patches that remove potentially hazardous full-screen flashing, rotation, and shaking effects from specific games. Having the sole purpose of making affected games more accessible to those sensitive to such effects, the following patches make no additional graphical or gameplay modifications to their respective games, though can be usually used in conjunction with other patches, if available.

=== Reimplementation hacks === <!--T:5-->
 
<!--T:6-->
This section lists game patches that restore game functionality originally implemented via unemulated system or game add-on hardware. Games that require the patch to be fully-compatible with the FunKey S are highlighted in green. As the patches for ''Boktai 2'', ''Boktai 3'', and ''Kirby Tilt 'n' Tumble'' implement button combinations that interfere with FunKey S system shortcuts, they also require [[List of games with compatibility issues#Games that require adapted controls|adapted controls]] to be fully-compatible. Should your backup of either of the first two Boktai games not be the retail North American versions, patch files for other variants of those games are available [[List of games with compatibility issues#Games that require patching|here]]. Should the ''WarioWare: Twisted!'' patch not function properly with your backup of the game, ensure that your game's CRC32 checksum value matches the one listed [[List of games with compatibility issues#Games with version-specific glitches|here]]. Lastly, while the patches for the Game Boy Color games below make the respective games believe they are being emulated on a Game Boy Advance to enable additional features, as they are still Game Boy Color games, they should be placed into the ''Game Boy Color'' folder of the FunKey S. For ''Yoshi's Safari'', it is recommended to center-align the cursor after returning to the overworld map to facilitate level selection.

== Improvement hacks == <!--T:8-->
 
<!--T:9-->
This section lists game patches that modify a game to improve a certain aspect of it. For games with multiple patch variants, select the patch that you prefer, as they are otherwise equivalent. The following are notes for several of the games listed below:
 
<!--T:27-->
*The ''Breath of Fire'' and ''Breath of Fire II'' improvement patches are compatible with the North American desaturation patches for those games [[#Desaturation hacks|listed below]].
*As ''Faceball 2000'' is [[List of games with compatibility issues#Games that require improved emulation|incompatible]] with the default Game Boy emulator, the ROM hack for it is as well. Of the two variants of this hack, both run slower than normal in the [[List of third-party OPK applications#Emulators|third-party]] ''mGBA'' emulator, while the ''GDMA'' variant has moderate graphical glitches in the ''Gambatte'' emulator.
*The patches for ''Final Fantasy VI Advance'' are compatible with their regional counterpart desaturation patches [[#Desaturation hacks|listed below]]. As noted on the wiki's [[List of games with compatibility issues#Gameswith region-specific glitches|compatibility issue list]], however, the North American version of the game cannot be saved via any method with the default Game Boy Advance emulator of the FunKey S. It is therefore recommended that either that version be played in one of the alternative [[List of third-party OPK applications#Emulators|third-party emulators]] or that the European version of the game be played instead.
*As the ''IPS'' patch format is incompatible with games with file sizes above 16 megabytes, such as ''Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade'' and ''Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones'', the ''BPS'' patch format had to be used instead. Both ''Floating IPS'' and ''MultiPatch'' are compatible with this patch file format as well.
*Should you wish to use more than one of the listed patches with ''The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening DX'', apply them in the order listed.

== Saturation hacks == <!--T:23-->
 
<!--T:24-->
This section lists game patches that adjust the saturation of color palettes. As initial Game Boy Advance games were developed with the original, non-backlit Game Boy Advance in mind, many of them had their colors oversaturated to improve visibility. With visibility not an issue for the backlit Game Boy Advance SP, game palettes were now brighter than intended, a difference particularly noticeable when comparing games ported from prior systems, such as ''Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2''. While most of the following patches decrease saturation for backlit screens such as that of the FunKey S, several instead increase saturation to fix games with overly dark palettes.
 
<!--T:29-->
The following are notes for several of the games listed below:
*The ''Breath of Fire'' and ''Breath of Fire II'' desaturation patches are compatible with the North American improvement patches for those games [[#Improvement hacks|listed above]].
*For ''Final Fantasy VI Advance'':
**An [https://static.miraheze.org/funkeywiki/0/0d/Final_Fantasy_VI_Advance_%28Yellow_Lightning_Bolt%29.ips additional patch] can be subsequently applied to change the color of the title screen lightning bolt from purple to yellow to match the game's SNES (rather than Super Famicom) color palette.
**As the ''IPS'' patch format is incompatible with games with file sizes above 16 megabytes, such as the European release of ''Final Fantasy VI Advance'', the ''BPS'' patch format had to be used instead. Both ''Floating IPS'' and ''MultiPatch'' are compatible with this patch file format as well.
**Also note that the game's desaturation patches are compatible with their regional counterpart improvement patches [[#Improvement hacks|listed above]].
**As noted on the wiki's [[List of games with compatibility issues#Gameswith region-specific glitches|compatibility issue list]], the North American version of the game cannot be saved via any method with the default Game Boy Advance emulator of the FunKey S. It is therefore recommended that either that version be played in one of the alternative [[List of third-party OPK applications#Emulators|third-party emulators]] or that the European version of the game be played instead.
*The desaturation patch for the North American version of ''Super Street Fighter II Turbo Revival'' was modified to include the changes made by a compatible bug fix patch. The Japanese version of the patch remains unmodified as the bug fix patch is not available for that version of the game.

=== Saturation === <!--T:23-->
 
<!--T:24-->
This section lists game patches that adjust the saturation of color palettes. As initial Game Boy Advance games were developed with the original, non-backlit Game Boy Advance in mind, many of them had their colors oversaturated to improve visibility. With visibility not an issue for the backlit Game Boy Advance SP, game palettes were now brighter than intended, a difference particularly noticeable when comparing games ported from prior systems, such as ''Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2''. While most of the following patches decrease saturation for backlit screens such as that of the FunKey S, several instead increase saturation to fix games with overly dark palettes.
 
<!--T:29-->
The following are notes for several of the games listed below:
*The ''Breath of Fire'' and ''Breath of Fire II'' desaturation patches are compatible with their region-equivalent audio improvement patches [[#Audio|listed below]].
*For ''Final Fantasy VI Advance'':
**An [https://static.miraheze.org/funkeywiki/0/0d/Final_Fantasy_VI_Advance_%28Yellow_Lightning_Bolt%29.ips additional patch] can be subsequently applied to change the color of the title screen lightning bolt from purple to yellow to match the game's SNES (rather than Super Famicom) color palette.
**As the ''IPS'' patch format is incompatible with games with file sizes above 16 megabytes, such as the European release of ''Final Fantasy VI Advance'', the ''BPS'' patch format had to be used instead. Both ''Floating IPS'' and ''MultiPatch'' are compatible with this patch file format as well.
**Also note that the game's desaturation patches are compatible with their region-equivalent audio improvement patches [[#Audio|listed below]].
**As noted on the wiki's [[List of games with compatibility issues#Gameswith region-specific glitches|compatibility issue list]], the North American version of the game cannot be saved via any method with the default Game Boy Advance emulator of the FunKey S. It is therefore recommended that either that version be played in one of the alternative [[List of third-party OPK applications#Emulators|third-party emulators]] or that the European version of the game be played instead.
*The desaturation patch for the North American version of ''Super Street Fighter II Turbo Revival'' was modified to include the changes made by a compatible bug fix patch. The Japanese version of the patch remains unmodified as the bug fix patch is not available for that version of the game.

== Improvement hacks == <!--T:8-->
 
<!--T:9-->
This section lists game patches that modify a game to improve a certain aspect of it. For games with multiple patch variants, select the patch that you prefer, as they are otherwise equivalent. To improve navigation, patches have been divided into sections based on whether they alter audio, gameplay, and/or graphics, with notes regarding several games listed above their respective tables. Patches with adjustments in multiple of the aforementioned categories are sorted into the gameplay section to maintain consistency. Note that patches adjust the saturation of graphics, but do not otherwise alter or replace them, are instead listed in the [[#Saturation hacks|saturation hack section]] below.
 
=== Audio === <!--T:37-->
 
<!--T:38-->
*The audio improvement patches for ''Breath of Fire'' and ''Breath of Fire II'' are compatible with the region-equivalent desaturation patches for those games [[#Desaturation hacks|listed above]].
*The audio improvement patches for ''Final Fantasy VI Advance'' are compatible with the region-equivalent desaturation patches [[#Desaturation hacks|listed adbove]]. As noted on the wiki's [[List of games with compatibility issues#Gameswith region-specific glitches|compatibility issue list]], however, the North American version of the game cannot be saved via any method with the default Game Boy Advance emulator of the FunKey S. It is therefore recommended that either that version be played in one of the alternative [[List of third-party OPK applications#Emulators|third-party emulators]] or that the European version of the game be played instead.
*The audio improvement patch for ''Super Mario Land'' is compatible with its [[#Graphics|colorization patch]].
*If you intend to also make use of the [[#Gameplay|gameplay improvement patch]] for ''Super Mario Land 2'', be sure to select the correct variant of the audio improvement patch listed below.
*The audio improvement patch for ''Willow'' is compatible with its [[#SRAM hacks|SRAM patch]].

*As ''Faceball 2000'' is [[List of games with compatibility issues#Games that require improved emulation|incompatible]] with the default Game Boy emulator, the ROM hack for it is as well. Of the two variants of this hack, both run slower than normal in the [[List of third-party OPK applications#Emulators|third-party]] ''mGBA'' emulator, while the ''GDMA'' variant has moderate graphical glitches in the ''Gambatte'' emulator.
*The colorization patch listed below for ''Super Mario Land'' is compatible with its [[#Audio|sound improvement patch]].

=== Gameplay === <!--T:43-->
 
<!--T:44-->
*As the ''IPS'' patch format is incompatible with games with file sizes above 16 megabytes, such as ''Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade'' and ''Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones'', the ''BPS'' patch format had to be used instead. Both ''Floating IPS'' and ''MultiPatch'' are compatible with this patch file format as well.
*If you intend to also make use of the [[#Audio|audio improvement patch]] for ''Super Mario Land 2'', be sure to select the version of that patch compatible with the gameplay improvement patch listed below.
*Should you wish to use more than one of the listed patches with ''The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening DX'', apply them in the order listed.
