I\u2019m a bit strange with my keyboards. I spend more time touching one than I do touching absolutely anything else. However, I couldn\u2019t tell you what makes one mechanical keyboard better than the other.<\/p>

Until now, because without hyperbole (okay, with some), the 8BitDo Retro Mechanical Keyboard is the one I want to be touching until I die. And that\u2019s not because of ergonomics, reliability, or how hardcore the key mechanics are; it\u2019s because of its look.<\/p>

Gosh, it\u2019s gorgeous.<\/p>

Keyboard dilettante<\/h2>

I\u2019m a bit of a weird choice to review a keyboard<\/a>, but I wasn\u2019t going to say no when I was offered one for review. I only know the general details about what makes one keyboard better than the other. I worked in IT for nearly 10 years, and the only thing that lawyers and engineers cared about was if it put letters on the screen. Some people wanted weird ergonomic models, but that was rare. I didn\u2019t even care about how they sounded.<\/p>

Until I watched the 1995 film Hackers<\/em>.<\/p>

That film features some of the clickiest keys I have ever heard, and I knew that my current keyboard wasn\u2019t enough. I need something louder. I have to have that aesthetic for when I play the hacker games that make me feel smart. I need my neighbors to be able to hear my WPM from down the hall.<\/p>

Initially, I was going to try and find a keyboard from the \u201890s before I discovered the audible greatness of mechanical keys.<\/p>

The 8BitDo Retro Mechanical Keyboard has some great key sounds. If you\u2019re not down with the particular key switches, the PCB is hot-swappable, so you can fit in something that suits your needs. Built-in is Kailh Box White Switches V2, which means absolutely nothing to me. However, I immediately fell in love with the sound. It has a lot of click, but less sharpness than my old Razor Blackwidow Ultimate (which uses Razor Green Switches).<\/p>

Until it’s gone<\/h2>

What I really love is the aesthetic, which comes in two flavors. There\u2019s one that is based on the grey\/darker grey color scheme of the NES, and another that lifts the red\/beige look of the Famicom. Unfortunately, they didn\u2019t use a metallic gold plate for the marquee, but otherwise, it looks fantastic. <\/p>

On top of the 87 keys, they put the 8BitDo touch to it with two knobs and three buttons, which grace many of the controllers, including my beloved arcade stick. The left knob is for switching between BlueTooth and 2.4Ghz, while the off position is used when you\u2019re using USB. The other knob is volume, and rather than a tri-direction switch like the input method knob, it revolves freely but has a little click so you can feel each unit of volume you increase or decrease. You can adjust how much this unit is in the control panel.<\/p>

The only drawback is the fact that it doesn\u2019t have a numpad, but I think that\u2019s because they wanted to keep it slightly portable, hence the wireless connections. I\u2019m planning on eventually buying a separate numpad because it\u2019s sometimes used in retro PC games. Also, I use it when entering numbers into a spreadsheet and sometimes hit the right Enter key. Right now, I keep hitting the right key blindly, thinking I\u2019m reaching for Enter.<\/p>

I did that just now.<\/p>

I was initially planning on showing pictures of the 8BitDo Retro Mechanical Keyboard in its home as part of my PC setup, but I decided that cleaning up my desk would be too much of an undertaking. Listen, it\u2019s sometimes said that a messy desk is a sign of a creative mind. It could also be laziness, sure, but I refuse to admit that.<\/p>

So, instead, I\u2019m just using the press shots of the keyboard, and you\u2019ll have to take my word for it; it looks great.<\/p>

The stress test<\/h2>

I also don\u2019t know how to test a keyboard or even what I would be testing for. Is there a latency for keystrokes? Should I just press a button a few million times to see if it reaches the estimated lifespan (60 million, apparently)?<\/p>

That sounds like a lot of work, so instead, I fired up Sega\u2019s 1999 megahit Typing of the Dead<\/a><\/em>. How far can I make it?<\/p>

As it turns out, I made it to the last chapter using the default settings, which I don\u2019t think is that bad since I haven\u2019t played it in \u2013 my gosh \u2013 15 years. For many of the chapters, I ranked at the top of the prepopulated leaderboards. I\u2019m not sure how well a normal human would do in the game. I\u2019m clocked at somewhere over 80 WPM with high accuracy. Please be impressed. I\u2019d really like to excel at something.<\/p>

So, now we know that the 8BitDo Retro Mechanical Keyboard is capable of handling Typing of the Dead<\/em>. I\u2019m not sure what else we\u2019d need it for. I suppose it also does the other things I do, like playing text adventures, complaining about video games, and writing erotica. I\u2019m even using it to \u201cpen\u201d this article, so that\u2019s pretty cool.<\/p>

Suffer like G did?<\/h2>

8BitDo Retro Mechanical Keyboard also comes with two \u201cSuper Buttons\u201d which are\u2026 hm. Well, you can map them to other keys, macros, or common shortcuts. I haven\u2019t fully decided what I\u2019m going to use them for, but I\u2019ve currently got the one set closest to me as \u201cmute.\u201d I think I might set the other one to my video driver\u2019s screenshot button. There are spots to connect more Super Buttons \u2013 four sets, for up to eight buttons. I\u2019d really like to see that.<\/p>

I imagine they\u2019re more for streamers who need something mapped to somewhere easy to reach. I don\u2019t watch streamers, so I have no idea, but I guess one could be mapped to do a fart sound. Do streamers\u2026 use fart sounds?<\/p>

There are also two mappable buttons on the keyboard marked \u201cA\u201d and \u201cB.\u201d They\u2019re called the Supper Buttons, and I am absolutely not making that up. I don\u2019t think that\u2019s a mistake, either, so someone has my exact sense of humor, which is to say, one informed almost entirely by Homestar Runner<\/em>. I set one Supper Button to work as the Fn key, but when I have mute and volume right on my keyboard, I don\u2019t know what I\u2019d use it for. I\u2019m just compounding my decision issues.<\/p>

Th-This is my keyboard! It was made for me!<\/h2>

But the fact is that the 8BitDo Retro Mechanical Keyboard is the keyboard for me. I have a lot of nostalgia for the beige electronics of yesteryear, but in particular, I love the Famicom. The lock screen on my phone is a Famicom controller (it unlocks to an NES controller home screen). It\u2019s this weird intersection between a toy and a computer.<\/p>

I\u2019m not using hyperbole, and I don\u2019t intend to gush. But the fact is, it\u2019s a keyboard that aesthetically suits me better than anything else possibly could. This is for me. This is my keyboard.<\/p>

My only concern is that the beige keys will eventually become yellowed from constant use, and I\u2019ll eventually\u2014begrudgingly\u2014have to part with it someday. I\u2019m already thinking I should buy a compatible replacement PCB for it, if this one gives out after 80 million keystrokes. I want this keyboard to last forever. It may sound dramatic, but I\u2019m hoping that I go out before it does, and if that happens, make sure to bury me with it.<\/p>

Don’t actually do that. That would be wasteful.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
