I was a bit torn if I should post this here or in keyboards, but I feel like it will be more appreciated here.

I just saw an announcement for a new keyboard coming out from 8BitDo based on the C64 and I am really loving it's look.

Looks like it would be perfect to hook up to a PiMiga setup.

I actually think it's nicer looking than the original Nintendo colour schemes (which were also really nice looking). The addition of the joystick with the two overly sized buttons is a really nice touch and in keeping with the era this keyboard is trying to evoke.

I love retro boards so this one is on my radar!

Recently built a Class60 with a similar theme with C64 keycaps.
