8BitDo's Nintendo-style Retro Mechanical Keyboard hits a new low of $70 at Woot
The Nintendo-inspired 8BitDo Retro Mechanical Keyboard is on sale for a new low of $70 at Amazon subsidiary Woot.
Unfortunately, the deal only applies to the device's Fami Edition, which has a color scheme and Japanese characters inspired by the Famicom console Nintendo released in Japan during the '80s. Its PBT keycaps are crisply textured, and its keys largely feel stable, with no major rattling on larger inputs like the space bar. The Retro Mechanical Keyboard ships with clicky Kailh Box White V2 switches, which are generally satisfying to press but have a high-pitch tone that your spouse or coworkers may find aggravating.
