There’s something about the 8BitDo Retro Keyboard that intrigues. It’s already a pretty good deal at full price for a mechanical, hot-swappable, wireless board, but it frequently goes on sale for $80, sometimes even $60. Today, Amazon is beating its own record, selling the original NES-inspired colorway for just $50.99. This isn’t refurbished or renewed—it’s for a new keyboard and it’s the best price I’ve seen yet.

The 8BitDo Retro Keyboard is obviously, well, retro, with its beige coloring and add-on buttons. But the tech underneath is solid, with a great TKL layout, high-quality PBT keycaps, and clicky Kailh Box switches. If you’re not a fan of those, you can swap them out for any other MX-style switch—and that’s true for the two switches underneath the oversized buttons, too. Layouts can be changed in Windows, and it connects wirelessly via the included dongle or over Bluetooth.

It’s not for everyone, but it’s a shockingly good keyboard considering the style. You can read my full review of the keyboard here if you need more info. Amazon is only discounting this NES-style colorway, by the way; the others are at or near full price. At nearly half off, I don’t expect this to last very long, if only because the stock won’t hold out.
