There have been several discounts on 8Bitdo’s retro mechanical keyboard over the last few weeks, but we just spotted the best one yet that drops its Famicom-style keyboard with included Super Buttons down to $59.99 on Woot. Shipping is free for Prime members with a $6 delivery fee otherwise. This is regularly a $100 keyboard, but today’s 40% discount lands it on the best price we have tracked for it. It’s $20 lower than the previous all-time low from a couple of months back. The same keyboard, in case you’re wondering, is currently fetching $95 on Amazon.
One of the highlights of 8Bitdo’s retro mechanical keyboard is that it comes with “Super Buttons,” which are essentially two oversized buttons that are completely customizable. The keyboard itself sports a Tenkeyless (TKL) layout, and it comes fully built with Kailh Box Switch V2 White switches and PBT keycaps to complete the Famicom color scheme. The NES-style keyboard that’s currently down to $70 on Woot comes with a different-colored keycaps. They both support tri-mode connectivity via Bluetooth, a 2.4GHz dongle, and a USB-C connector, and they works well with Windows, macOS, and Android.
If you are looking for a more traditional keyboard, then the deal we tracked yesterday that drops Keychron’s Q2 65% keyboard to $80 is still live. There’s also the Alienware Pro wireless mechanical keyboard at $150 right now. You can also swing by our PC gaming deal hub to see if you can find something else to add to your gaming setup.
