To give readers an idea of which systems could be supported by the FunKey S in the future, below this paragraph are listed various systems that are not currently officially emulated on the FunKey S. To begin, the following list consists of systems that can currently be emulated accurately at a reasonable speed on the FunKey S via one or more [[List of third-party OPK applications#Emulators|third-party emulators]] (with those in italics emulatable via [[List of emulatable utilities#Emulation|meta-emulation]]):
To give readers an idea of which systems could be supported by the FunKey S in the future, below this paragraph is listed various systems are not currently emulated on the FunKey S. For a system to be listed here, it must be weak enough to be emulatable with the 64 MB of RAM that the FunKey S has (a 4 MB RAM limit is used for the purposes of this list), have an open-source emulator that can be run on Linux (which the FunKey OS is based on), and must have its own library of software. Several systems that are more powerful than the PS1, currently the most powerful emulated system on the FunKey S, are listed, however may or may not be emulatable on the FunKey S, depending on the optimization of open-source emulators for those systems. As emulators on the FunKey S have to be able to make do with fewer buttons and a smaller screen than emulators on most computers, the list is split into four lists: systems with fewer buttons and a lower maximum resolution than the FunKey S, systems with more buttons than the FunKey S, systems with a higher maximum resolution than the FunKey S, and systems with both more buttons and a higher maximum resolution than the FunKey S. For the purposes of this list, the FunKey S button count will include the inputs that are only possible with the use of the Fn key, which gives the FunKey S a total button count of fourteen. If a system has an input method that cannot be directly translated into a button input (such as a touchscreen or a microphone), it will be listed in the insufficient buttons section, as the emulator for that system would have to implement an alternate input method. While these lists are being compiled to be as complete as possible, a variety of factors may make a system on the list harder or impossible to emulate. This includes the fact that some emulators are more optimized than others, the FunKey OS's use of SDL 1.2 rather than SDL 2, or problems that arise from the FunKey's limited resolution or button count. 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.
