As several people have asked us about the status of the updated displays, the last components that were needed for final assembly, we're glad to confirm that they arrived on time. While by now we had intended to begin the final assembly process, an unforeseen development has caused another delay in the schedule. As you may remember from several updates ago, one of the games that we had selected to preload onto the FunKey S was the Sega Genesis (Mega Drive) port of Cave Story. This was all well and good until Nicalis, the developer of the updated Cave Story+, [https://www.nintendolife.com/news/2020/11/nicalis_is_issuing_dmca_takedown_notices_to_free_versions_of_cave_story issued a DMCA takedown notice] to the Cave Story decompilation project. While the developers maintaining the project have stated that they will seek to discuss the matter with Nicalis, as of present preloading Cave Story onto the FunKey S would be a very serious legal risk for us that we must avoid. As the FunKey-OS firmware had already been flashed onto the PCBAs we had to recall them for re-flashing to remove Cave Story, which will add an additional week of delay to the schedule. To make the most of this situation we will also be updating the preloaded firmware to FunKey-OS 1.1.0, which hadn't been completed by the time of the initial flashing process. While this additional delay is unfortunate to say the least, keeping the game in the official firmware might have caused legal issues, so we hope that you understand our position and excuse us. We would like to thank our amazing [https://discord.com/channels/728036844142592000/728036844142592003 Discord community] for swiftly informing us of this before the final assembly process had begun.
