Update: Woot’s deal on the Famicom version is live once again to match the lowest price we have tracked yet at $79.99 Prime shipped. Just be sure to also check out 8BitDo’s new wonderfully retro C64 keyboard with Super Buttons and Super Stick.

Amazon is now offering its best price yet on the NES version of the 8Bitdo Retro Mechanical Keyboard down at $89.99 shipped. Regularly $100, this throwback-style mechanical keyboard is now at the lowest price we can find. While you can still score the Famicom version over at Woot for $79.99 Prime shipped, those looking for the vintage NES vibes will want to opt for the Amazon listing here. Outside of the color treatment, both models are essentially the same, complete with a pair of what 8Bitdo calls Super Buttons – two oversized buttons that look like they were pulled straight from an NES controller and blown up to epic proportions and loaded with customizable mapping tech. More details below. 

This is 8Bitdo’s latest keyboard offering with a design clearly inspired by Nintendo’s retro consoles. Available in two flavors, the NES or Famicom color schemes, they deliver an 87-key layout with dye-sub PBT keycaps and Kailh Box V2 White switches to your setup, alongside the programmable Super Buttons. On the connectivity side of things, there’s Bluetooth, wired, or a wireless 2.4G dongle at the ready with compatibility on Windows 10 or above and Android 9.0 or newer, as well as macOS. The onboard 2,000mAh for up to 200 hours of gameplay rounds out the feature set here.
