![8BitDo's Next Mechanical Keyboard Is Based On The Commodore 64 1](https://cdn.statically.io/img/images.timeextension.com/f60b133e0e8db/8bitdos-next-mechanical-keyboard-is-based-on-the-commodore-64-1.900x.jpg)
Accessory maker 8BitDo is releasing another mechanical keyboard, this time based on the iconic C64.
The second in the company's Retro Mechanical Keyboard series, which includes a NES / Famicom version, which we reviewed not so long ago. It's essentially the same deal here, just with design flourishes which mimic Commodore's popular 8-bit home computer.
Like the NES version, it comes with an "Independent Control Panel" which, in this case, includes two large buttons and a joystick.
Connection options include USB, Bluetooth, and 2.4GHz, with the latter coming via the bundled USB dongle. The's a 2000mAh Li-on battery inside, which grants 200 hours of use on a 4-hour charge.
It will cost $109.99 and ships on May 26th, 2024. You can pre-order it here.

The NES one looks kinda awesome, to the point I was even considering purchasing it. Not so convinced with the C64 one, which rather than looking retro chic stylish just looks old and dated imo.
This looks great! Imagine if they did an Amiga keyboard, I would be all over that
Out of stock and nothing on Amazon UK
