This the best mechanical keyboard you could get for $65. It's worth it for the hotswapple switches and wireless capabilities.

Woot has been inching the price down on the Xbox edition for a while, and I don't think it will go below $65.

If it drops more, after Woot's and Xbox's cut, 8BitDo would probably lose money.

I would actually recommend the AJAZZ AK820. It sounds creamy already out of the box but is also hot swappable.

This is a nice keyboard with multiple options to connect. I just need to find a good use for the big buttons.

I bought one of these last time it was on sale but ended up returning it. The keys were nice and the features were solid, but I just couldn't get over the ENORMOUS top bezel and the bigass "8BITDO RETRO KEYBOARD" label.

If those things don't bother you, it's a solid board at a great price.

I was considering this, and its still worth it for the unique theme, but the P87 was too good of a price to pass up.

This is not true.

These are novelty products that check some boxes and appeal to certain types of people. I own the c64, f, and n versions mostly as decoration. They're hollow and cheap-feeling. The joystick and giant buttons are fun things.

Would you like me to post 5 better options? What keyboards are you comparing this to in order to draw that conclusion?

1. https://a.co/d/i9Lv8ZI
2. https://a.co/d/dRftfT6
3. https://a.co/d/ciusesi
4. https://a.co/d/irlb1Jq
5. https://a.co/d/aTWVDJo

From $40-65, all are better keyboards than this in some way. The first, an Epomaker p87 has a well designed aluminum case and comes with fast linear switches for just under $50. Labeled a gaming keyboard, but it'd fit in an office too. That's my pick of the bunch and I got one for my office setup. Others have other features like aluminum construction, small screens, built in ports, and/or better switches.

But if you're after this vibe, this is a great price on this particular kb.

Sold out. Deal is dead. What's the point of this if it doesn't work with Xbox console? Thinking about buying an xbox and playing some games but I'm pc gamer so only like keyboard and mouse.
