Introducing 8BitDo NES-Inspired Keycaps: A Nostalgic Touch for Modern Keyboards

Gaming enthusiasts and keyboard aficionados can now rejoice, as 8BitDo has officially launched a set of keycaps that pay homage to the classic Nintendo Entertainment System (NES). Known for blending retro design with modern functionality, 8BitDo’s new keycap set is perfect for those who appreciate a touch of nostalgia in their tech.

Key Features of the 8BitDo Retro Keycaps

Available for $49.99, the 8BitDo Retro Keycap set includes 165 durable PBT keys with dye-sublimated legends that ensure longevity. These keycaps are specifically designed to provide compatibility with a variety of keyboard layouts including:

  • 65% Layout
  • 75% Layout
  • 80% Layout
  • 95% Layout
  • 100% Layout
  • Ergonomic Split Keyboards

Please note that the compatibility is limited to MX-style switches, making this set ideal for those who are already invested in mechanical keyboards.

Unique Keycap Designs

What sets this keycap set apart is not only its nostalgic design but also the clever variations offered for certain keys. Among the highlights:

  • A spacebar adorned with an iconic health meter design available in two sizes.
  • Both American ANSI and international ISO versions for keys like the Enter key featuring an inverted L design and a smaller Shift key.

This attention to detail allows users to customize their setups to better reflect their personal style and gaming needs.

8BitDo's Mechanical Keyboards: A Range to Choose From

While the Retro Keycaps can be used on any compatible keyboard, 8BitDo also offers mechanical keyboards themselves, priced at $99.99. They are currently available in a compact tenkeyless layout. However, for those who still feel like they need a full-sized keyboard experience without the bulk, 8BitDo offers:

  • The $44.99 wireless mechanical numpad that adds extra functionality. This numpad not only matches the NES theme but also serves as a desktop calculator, making it a practical addition to your workspace.

Where to Purchase

The NES-inspired keycaps are currently available for purchase through 8BitDo's official website. Given their unique design and historical reference, these keycaps are likely to sell out quickly. Don’t miss out on your chance to revive classic gaming vibes while enjoying contemporary keyboard technology!

Conclusion

The release of the 8BitDo Retro Keycap set not only enriches the woodworking aesthetic of modern keyboards but also infuses a nostalgic charm for gamers and tech enthusiasts alike. Whether you're upgrading your existing setup or looking for a gift for a fellow gaming lover, these keycaps are a worthy addition to any collection.
