This section lists various games that are playable on the FunKey S. The two primary types of games are those that run natively on the FunKey S and those that are emulated.
To be written.
 
=== Running natively ===
Since the FunKey S has not yet released there are currently no native third-party games available for it, however, once such games begin to be released, a list will be created for them.

=== Emulated ===

As compatibility with additional systems is announced, newgames listsfor those systems will be added to this article tothe reflectexisting thatlists. To give readers an idea of which listssystems could be addedsupported toby thisthe articleFunKey S in the future, below this paragraph is listed various systems that use 3MB or less of combined RAM. While this means that the PlayStation can be emulated, its contemporaries, the Nintendo 64, Sega Saturn, and PC-FX, all use more than 3MB of RAM, making their emulation more challenging on the hardware of the FunKey S. This also means that aside from the GBA, all portable and home consoles released in 1999 or later are also too powerful to emulate accurately on the FunKey S hardware.
 
To ensure that this list isn't simply a list of all computers and consoles released prior to 1999, two requirements must be met for a system to be on the list: it must have its own library of software and must be emulatable on Linux, which the FunKey OS is based on. Note that the presence of a system on the following list does not guarantee that it can or will be emulated on the FunKey S, as this list is only here to speculate which lists may be added to this article in the future and is not indicative of any potential intents or plans of the FunKey Team.
Line 46:
If a system not yet announced for the FunKey S is missing from one of these lists, feel free to add it to the corresponding list or leave a message about it on the FunKey Discord server.
 
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 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.
