As the default NES emulator, FCEUX, is able to make use of the Game Genie's cheat code system, it is the simplest way to use cheats in NES games on the FunKey S. To enable the functionality, begin by renaming an NES Game Genie ROM file to ''gg.rom'' and placing it in the ''/mnt/FunKey/.fceux'' location of the FunKey S file system. If you don't see the ''.fceux'' folder, your computer's Unix-based operating system is hiding hidden folders. {{HiddenFolderExplanation}} Next, open the ''fceux.cfg'' file also located in that folder in a text editor and replace the thirteenth line, <u>SDL.GameGenie = 0</u>, with <u>SDL.GameGenie = 1</u>. The next time an NES game is launched with the ''New Game'' option via the default NES emulator, the Game Genie password menu will appear, allowing up to three Game Genie codes to be entered for the game in question. As Game Genie codes are entered before a game begins, keep in mind that FunKey S autosaves cannot be loaded while the setting is enabled. Therefore, to use Game Genie codes with pre-existing save data, ensure ahead of time that your game(s) are saved via in-game saves or emulator save states. To disable the Game Genie setting and restore access tore-enable the device's autosave feature for NES games, simply undo the modification made to the ''fceux.cfg'' file.
