The 8BitDo retro hot-swappable keyboard caught my attention just before the holidays, and it’s since been a staple in my rotation. At $99, this NES / Famicom styled device was already well priced - especially considering the hot-swappable switches and additional programmable A / B buttons.However, Woot! has an even better offer for us today, dropping the Famicom styled TKL deck down to just$79.99 for $20 off. That’s a fantastic price just for a TKL hot-swappable deck, let alone one themed around a retro fan’s burgundy daydream. While it’s got a different paintjob to the NES themed clicker I’ve been slaving over betweengaming keyboardreviews, this edition has only ever hit $85 in past sales - and that was only for a couple of days earlier in the month.For reference, you’ll usually pay around $200 for ahot-swappable keyboardfrom KeyChron or about $150 for a Ducky model. While the overall build quality isn’t as high as these premium options, $79.99 is still fantastic value for money. If you’re keen to take your first steps into the world of custom decks, this is an excellent opportunity to dip your toes for far less than usual - regardless of nostalgia.8BitDo Retro Mechanical Keyboard |$99.99$79.99 at Woot!Save $20 -This is a fantastic offer for anyone after a wireless hot-swappable deck with bags of extra features.

The chunkier plastic chassis and larger keycaps are all in keeping with that retro design, everything still feels particularly well put together. Functionally, the two keyboards are identical - you’re just opting for a different paintjob with today’s offer. You’re still getting a wireless connection in the form of both 2.4GHz and Bluetooth (and a super satisfying rotary switch to swap between them), hot-swappable switches, and two dedicated macro buttons. That set of giant A / B pads is particularly tactile - I’ve had them mapped to everything from health / reload in Starfield to toggling between different skill sets in Assassin’s Creed: Odyssey. They’re easy to hit, endlessly slappable, and super versatile.All in all, the value here is fantastic.
