==== ProductionShipping ====
</div>
While shipping only started yesterday, we're relieved to say that there is still enough time left for some backers to receive their FunKey S units before Christmas. Due to the impact of COVID-19 on shipping, however, backers in the EU and US may receive their devices after Christmas. All backers should be receiving an email in the coming days that includes their personal tracking numbers, allowing each backer to know where their package is during the shipment process! ✈️ Be sure to check your email client's spam folder as well in case the email ends up there! Additionally, the shipping company we are partnering with informed us that all Japanese backers must have their shipping addresses in English for successful delivery. If this applies to you, check your inbox for an email from us on how to proceed.
Everything is going well, with the shipment process still on track to begin in mid-December. Since last week's update the team at the production facility has been working very hard to finish assembling your FunKey S units! We've arranged with the shipping company to send backers their shipment tracking information when the shipping process begins, so keep an eye on your email inbox!

==== DevelopmentWhat comes next? ====
</div>
After three years of product development we near the end of our first Kickstarter adventure, as within a fortnight thousands of FunKey S devices will have been delivered around the world. We can't wait to hear your thoughts, reactions, and experiences with the FunKey S, so feel to message, tag, or email us when you receive it, as we may make a reaction compilation video for our social media as a big thank you! With the FunKey S backer fulfillment process nearing finished, we're brainstorming ideas for how we could continue to use this platform. If you have any ideas, you're more than welcome to share them with us! 😄 We hope that you all remain well and have a very merry holiday!
Do you guys know about [https://mtorromeo.github.io/gmenu2x/index.html Gmenu2X]? It's a popular launcher in the retro gaming community that is commonly used on emulation devices, including the RG350 and PocketGo systems. With the FunKey S we instead created FunKey-OS using [http://retrofe.nl/ RetroFE] as a launcher, allowing us to optimize the user interface and themes for the device's small screen. As Gmenu2X is a feature-rich alternative that provides developers and tinkerers easy access to the system to create custom software, we have decided to add support for it in an upcoming update to FunKey-OS. A lightweight alternative to the current launcher, it will be another tool that developers can use to create and share additional apps and emulators for the FunKey S! 😊

On the subject of developers, some are already hard at work! The well-known emulation scene developer [https://github.com/gameblabla gameblabla] received a prototype several days ago and has already ported several emulators and apps to the FunKey S. This includes VBA-next, a Game Boy Advance emulator that will have a better compatability rate and won't require a copy of the GBA BIOS to function. This shows the true power of open source projects!

The FunKey Wiki created by CoolieCoolster continues to be improved, with a Polish translation of it currently in the works by ZnowuCośZepsułem (Witajcie polscy przyjaciele! 👋). As always, we thank them and and the rest of our supporters for their continued enthusiasm and support! Whether it's here on Kickstarter, Instagram, Twitter, or the [https://discord.gg/8Jh84dU3 community Discord server], while we might not answer all comments, be assured that we read all of them and deeply appreciate the heartwarming support.
 
We'll end this episode here with a new picture of our dear Retro Grey FunKey S. We hope you like it! See you next Friday for what might be the final update!

The system has thirteen buttons built into it: four directional buttons, four action buttons, two trigger buttons, a START button, and two system buttons. The top-right system button is the Menu button, while the one to the left of the START button is the Fn button. The Menu button has two purposes: a short press activates the system menu, allowing the user to modify settings or return to the main menu, while a long press turns the system on or off. The Fn (Function) button has several functions to extend the capabilities of the system's limited number of buttons. Pressing the Fn button by itself is registered as SELECT, while pressing it in conjunction with L or R is registered as L2 or R2, respectively. The other uses of the Fn button are shortcuts to modify several system settings without needing to go to the system's settings menu. The settings that can be modified with the use of the Fn button are brightness (X and B), volume (Y and A), zoom (RIGHT and LEFT), and aspect ratio (DOWN). While FunKey S systems come by default with either white or grey buttons (depending on which system color is ordered), aside from the L and R buttons these can be swapped out individually with the included green, blue, red, and yellow extra button sets.

Emulators function using either low-level emulation (LLE) or high-level emulation (HLE), with the former directly emulating the processes of the original system and the latter merely simulating them. While both methods are commonly used and have distinct benefits, the truer 'emulation' of LLE means emulators that use this method require the system ROM of the original hardware to function. This ROM, known as the BIOS, performs system-critical tasks for many systems, with neither the original hardware nor an LLE emulator of that hardware being functional without the associated BIOS file. In the case of the FunKey S, while the majority of its emulated systems do not require BIOS files, there are two that do: the PlayStation and Game Boy Advance. While some PlayStation games can be emulated without a BIOS file and a Game Boy Advance emulator that does require a BIOS file is expected to be added in a future firmware update, currently to properly emulate either system a BIOS file for each is required. As with video game ROMs, BIOS ROMs are protected by copyright restrictions and thus also cannot be legally distributed with the FunKey S. Users may extract BIOS ROM files from PlayStation and Game Boy Advance units that they own and add them to the FunKey S emulators for those systems to render them functional. Once a tutorial for adding BIOS files to emulators is written, it will be linked to here.
