SF2000
The SF2000 is a cheap hand-held emulation gaming console which was released in early 2023. Although the device itself is sold by a variety of vendors, it was the vendor "Data Frog" who caught public attention, and so the device is often simply referred to as "the Data Frog".
For a cheap device, it's actually fairly capable - most Game Boy, Game Boy Color, NES and Genesis/Mega Drive games play at full speed, and many arcade, Game Boy Advance and SNES titles do as well. The device has an IPS panel (not OCA laminated), and a user-replacable "18650" battery, which can be charged via a USB-C port on the device. It also has analog A/V out (note: not HDMI), meaning it can be connected to a CRT TV - the type of display most arcade, Genesis/Mega Drive and SNES games were originally intended to be displayed on. It has a built-in 2.4GHz antenna, and can receive input from a compatible wireless controller (usually sold separately).
Some downsides to the device: it's mono-only, there's no head-phone jack (although there is a volume wheel), screen brightness cannot be altered (it's fairly bright), SNES and Game Boy Advance are hit-or-miss in terms of performance (some games are fine, many games run slowly), the stock firmware is closed-source so the device's performance may never get any better than as-shipped, and some folks have had issues with the buttons (they're quite cheap, and sit flush when pressed).
So is the "Data Frog" any good? Only you can answer that question for yourself. There are certainly more powerful devices out there, more fully featured devices, devices with better hardware, etc. - but almost all of those devices cost a lot more than the SF2000. At the end of the day, you have to look at the features offered at the given price-point, and only then can you decide if you're interested in the device or not.

Hardware
CPU
Although the main CPU of the SF2000 has literally had it's markings milled off by a routing tool, the community has determined that it's a HCSEMI B210, a single-core MIPS processor running at 810 MHz. It appears to be a clone of an ALi Tech chip. No SDK is currently available for it, and the device is closed-source.
Display
The SF2000 features a 240x320 IPS display panel (not OCA laminated), which has been rotated 90° clockwise to give a 320x240 display. It demonstrates screen tearing for all emulators, running from the right of the console to the left due to the panel rotation.
Buttons
The ABXY are basically a clone of the original SNES controller buttons. Although everyone seems to be getting two purple and two lilac coloured buttons, there's a disparity to the type of buttons folks are getting - some get two convex and two concave buttons, others have gotten three concave and one convex, etc..
It has been reported that both the buttons and the underlying membrane from an original SNES controller can be swapped into the SF2000, which may improve the "feel" of the buttons. Note that the SF2000 uses ABXY buttons that have two plastic tabs sticking out to keep them in the shell (at 180 degrees from each other); some after-market SNES-style buttons have three tabs, and won't fit the housing.
Some folks have modded the stock ABXY buttons on their SF2000s by adding a thin strip of tape or other thin material into the circular depression under each button - this causes the buttons to be raised a bit higher out of the shell, and to not sink as far into the shell when the button is pressed.
D-Pad
Just like the ABXY buttons, the d-pad is a clone of the SNES d-pad. It has been reported that an original SNES d-pad and membrane can be swapped into the SF2000 as well.
Thumb Stick
The SF2000 uses a Switch-style thumb stick that does not depress for L2/R2. It is compatible with Switch thumb stick third-party covers.
Battery
The SF2000 takes a 18650 type rechargable battery, which is easily user replacable (it's behind a battery door with a screw), and comes with a 1,500mAh one. 18650 with and without "nubs" both fit fine. The console has built-in over-charge protection, but does not have under-charge protection, so for safety do not leave the console turned on when the battery is low. From when it displays a full-screen low battery indicator, it takes about 3.5 hours to charge the stock battery. The green charging light does not turn off when fully charged.
Wireless Connectivity
The SF2000 does not feature WIFI or Bluetooth, but it does have a 2.4Ghz antenna to support local wireless multiplayer using a compatible 2.4Ghz wireless controller for Player 2. The Y2 SFC wireless controller and the SF900 wireless controller have both been reported to work fine.
Emulators
The device advertises support for arcade, NES, SNES, Genesis/Mega Drive, Game Boy, Game Boy Color and Game Boy Advance; it also supports loading Master System ROMs. SNES and GBA performance are very hit-or miss (more miss than hit, really); the other consoles actually perform fairly well. All consoles currently stretch their output to fill the display, and do not maintain aspect ratio.
The SF2000 appears to be using Libretro with a custom front-end (i.e., not RetroArch).
Arcade
The device is running some version of Final Burn Alpha - it ships with a subset of the v0.2.97.24 ROM set, so likely that version. adcockm#8175 from the Retro Handhelds Discord did some phenomenal work checking the full v0.2.97.24 against the device's April 20th firmware - thanks adcockm#8175! The below table has their findings:
| List | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| view | On microSD | These were the ROMs included on the microSD card shipped with the device |
| view | Not Listed | The SF2000's firmware contains a list of FBA ROM names, including ROMs not included on the microSD card - it is assumed these are the only games the flavour of FBA on the SF2000 knows about. This text file contains a list of the ROMs from the v0.2.97.24 set that were not listed in the firmware; these are assumed to be incompatible, and were not tested |
| view | No Load | These ROMs immediately hung the emulator without any indication it had loaded any files successfully |
| view | Load Hang | These ROMs indicated they were loading some files on startup, but hung before completing |
| view | Load Corrupt | These ROMs appeared to complete loading, but only showed severe graphical corruption (e.g., garbage, static, a black screen, etc.) and usually wouldn't allow exit back to the SF2000's menu via start+select |
| view | Working | These ROMs loaded successfully; note that "working" does not mean "works perfectly" - some may be too slow to play, may not have any audio, may not be controllable (e.g., light-gun games), etc. - they just finish loading successfully |
NES
Appears to be a version of FCEUMM. There are references in the firmware to different NES palettes, but there's no interface or configuration for the emulator itself to choose one. On the original firmware, the A and B buttons were swapped. See "Button Mappings/Key Bindings" section below.
SNES
With the April 20th version of the firmware, SNES games appear to run very slowly on first launch; but if you exit the game and load it again, it usually starts performing much better.
Genesis/Mega Drive
Works pretty well. This emulator is capable of loading Master System ROMs if placed in the user ROMs folder on the microSD card; Game Gear ROMs do not load. On the original firmware, A was mapped to A, B was mapped to B, and RB was mapped to C for some reason. See "Button Mappings/Key Bindings" section below.
Game Boy
Uses a black and white colour palette, which currently cannot be changed. On the original firmware, the A and B buttons were swapped. See "Button Mappings/Key Bindings" section below.
Game Boy Color
On the original firmware, the A and B buttons were swapped. See "Button Mappings/Key Bindings" section below.
Game Boy Advance
Performance is fairly poor. On the original firmware, A and B buttons are mapped correctly, but the GBA shoulder buttons are mapped to X and Y for some reason. See "Button Mappings/Key Bindings" section below.
biserv.asd
The firmware for the SF2000 is actually located on the microSD card, in a file called biserv.asd located in the BIOS folder. This file is a monolithic binary blob, which contains the device's OS, the emulators, their settings... basically everything. The file is currently being investigated. Here are some findings from it:
Button Mappings/Key Bindings
osaka#9664 discovered that the OS supports loading game-specific key bindings from .kmp files, stored in the save folder for each system and named after a game's ROM file (e.g., /FC/save/Game Name.kmp). They also discovered where in the biserv.asd file the default mappings for each emulator are stored. Working with this information, notv37#4200 worked out what bits related to what buttons for each emulator. Using both their findings, we now have a tool which can be used to update both the global button mappings for the emulators, as well as create per-ROM mappings - you can find this tool here.
Boot Logo
When the device is powered on, a "Welcome" image is displayed for a short time before the main menu appears. This image comes from inside biserv.asd, at offset 0x9B91D8. It's a 512x200 RGB565 Little Endian raw image file, and looks like this:
The image is actually displayed at half-resolution though, 256x100, centred in the middle of the screen. The boot logo can be changed to an arbitrary 256x100 image using a web-based tool I wrote, which you can find here.
Resources
The Resources folder on the microSD card contains all of the resources used by the device's firmware to construct the user interface at runtime. The following tables list the files from the 20230420 firmware and what they are used for, grouped by broad categories:
Fonts
| Filename | Description |
|---|---|
| Arial_cn.ttf | The "Arial" typeface, containing Latin, Greek, Cyrillic, Chinese, and Japanese characters. Duplicate of yahei_Arial.ttf, the single font file from the original firmware version |
| Arial_en.ttf | The "Arial" typeface, containing Latin, Greek, Cyrillic, Armenian, Hebrew and Arabic characters |
| Arial_jp.ttf | The "Arial" typeface, containing Latin, Greek, Cyrillic, Chinese and Japanese characters |
| Arial_kr.ttf | The "Arial" typeface, containing Latin, Greek, Cyrillic, Chinese, Japanese and Korean characters |
| Tahoma.ttf | The "Tahoma" typeface, containing Latin, Greek, Cyrillic, Armenian, Hebrew, Arabic and Thai characters |
| yahei_Arial.ttf | The "Arial" typeface, containing Latin, Greek, Cyrillic, Chinese, Japanese and Korean characters |
Images (Used)
As far as I am aware, all of the below images are actively used by the 20230420 version of the firmware; happy to take any corrections if it turns out any of them are unused! Note that while the stock theme is based around a 640x480 resolution, the actual display on the SF2000 is a 320x240 one. The OS on the device uses nearest-neighbour scaling for its images, giving the stock UI a somewhat aliased appearance. If you're planning to make your own theme for the SF2000, design it for 320x240, and then double the resolution when exporting the final images to the device for a crisper look.

Images (Unused)
To the best of my knowledge, the following image files are currently unused by the 20230420 firmware, and were probably left over from previous devices (the SF2000 shares a bit of lineage with some USB-stick devices) or development. The images marked "Alternate UI" below appear to have been for a UI where the systems were scrolled through horizontally, and the "shortcut" games for each system were scrolled vertically.

ROM Lists
Credit for this section goes to taizou#9644, author of Frog Tool. These files relate to the built-in game lists under each main system; the list of games is pulled from these files instead of being built at runtime - annoying, but presumably for performance reasons. It means if you want to change the list of built-in games (instead of using the User ROMs section), you have to edit these files - hence Frog Tool, you should really check it out.
| Files | Description |
|---|---|
| mfpmp.bvs (Arcade), mgdel.bvs (Game Boy Color), nethn.bvs (NES), qdvd6.bvs (Game Boy), sppnp.bvs (Game Boy Advance), wmiui.bvs (Genesis/Mega Drive), xvb6c.bvs (SNES) | Pinyin translations of the English ROM names, used for Chinese language searching. Not all game names are translated |
| adsnt.nec (SNES), fhcfg.nec (NES), htuiw.nec (Game Boy Advance), msdtc.nec (Arcade), setxa.nec (Genesis/Mega Drive), umboa.nec (Game Boy), wjere.nec (Game Boy Color) | Chinese translations of the English ROM names, used to display the game lists when the UI language is set to Chinese. Not all game names are translated |
| mswb7.tax (Arcade), pnpui.tax (Game Boy Color), rdbui.tax (NES), scksp.tax (Genesis/Mega Drive), urefs.tax (SNES), vdsdc.tax (Game Boy), vfnet.tax (Game Boy Advance) | English ROM Names, used to display the game lists when the UI language is set to English |
| xfgle.hgp, xfgle.hgp.bak | The xfgle.hgp file contains the ROM "shortcuts" on the main menu for each game system. The xfgle.hgp.bak file appears to be a test version of this file that was not removed from the firmware before being sent to production |
| TSMFK.TAX | This is a ROM list file similar to the other .tax files, except it is built at run-time from the ROM files in the user roms folder. The file is regenerated each time the device boots |
Sounds
There are several sound files in the 20230420 firmware, stored in raw signed 16-bit PCM format (mono, little-endian at 22050 Hz). The SF2000 seems to play the files back at an incorrect sample rate vs. the raw data; if you want to customise the background music, resample your audio to 21543 Hz, and then speed the audio up to 22050 Hz, using the resulting audio as the raw data (credit to notv37#4200 in Discord for doing the math on that).
| Filename | Description | Listen |
|---|---|---|
| c2fkec.pgt | "Popping" sound that is played when moving around the search keyboard | listen |
| dpnet.dll | "Downwards Zap" sound, unknown usage | listen |
| dsreg.bvs | "Upwards Bleeping" sound, unknown usage | listen |
| help.lis | "Double Buzzer" sound, unknown usage | listen |
| mfsvr.nkf | "Beep" sound that is played when entering a letter on the search keyboard | listen |
| nyquest.gdb | "Whooshing" sound that is played when switching between emulated systems on the main menu, between the "Resume", "Quit", "Load" and "Save" options on the in-game menu, and scrolling by pages within a system's game-list | listen |
| oldversion.kbe | "Three Note Upward Chime" sound that is played when deleting a letter on the search keyboard | listen |
| pagefile.sys | Main menu background music. If you don't like background music, and would rather just have silence, you can find a replacement silent pagefile.sys here - just replace the one in the Resources folder (don't forget to backup the original file first, in case you ever want that jaunty tune again!) |
listen |
| swapfile.sys | "Squishy" sound played when navigating horizontally through "shortcut" games on the main menu, or vertically within a system's game-list | listen |
Unknown Files
These are files that I have not yet determined what they do; if anyone has any information on these, do post about it in the Data Frog channel in the Retro Handhelds Discord server please!
| Filename | Description |
|---|---|
| kcnuv.lit | UNKNOWN; a bunch of 4-byte binary chunks (e.g., 0xC4 0x00 0x00 0x00), followed by a list of .NES ROM file names. Very similar to the .bvs/.nec/.tax files detailed above, but doesn't have the same type of "header" they have |
Version History
20230511 - 1.6: Added a quick note about the display panel to the Hardware section, and added a new section for Emulators, including an incredible collection of ROM notes for Arcade thanks to adcockm#8175! Also added a "silent" background music file for download, and a table of contents (this page is getting fairly long 😅). Added a favicon.ico to get rid of that one annoying console error.
20230510 - 1.5: Added additional detail to the Hardware section about the buttons, d-pad, thumb-stick, battery, and wireless controller support.
20230510 - 1.4: Added my own version of osaka#9664's button mapping tool at their request, and changed the link in the Key Mapping section accordingly.
20230509 - 1.3: Added more details about how the boot logo ends up scaled on the screen, as well as a link to a new tool I wrote for altering the logo. Corrected one small formatting error.
20230508 - 1.2: Added details for Archive.sys - thanks to osaka#9664 for the hints on what it related to!
20230507 - 1.1: Some "unknown" files from the Resources folder identified with taizou#9644's help (thanks!); moved them to the Sounds and Rom Lists sections with details. Only two files left!
