Original Coupon Deal

For those of you like me who have been sucked into these retro style keyboards, this seems to be a pretty good price for the matching num pad for the 8Bitdo retro keyboards.

RRP on 8Bitdo is US$44.99 plus $2 postage.

By applying the $4 off $30 brings the final price down to $37.02 USD shipped.

It's a gimmick and a novelty really, but it's MY gimmick and novelty (when it arrives) :P

  Goddamnit, I paid $67ish last month and it's still unopened. This is a good price compared to its usual on Ali.

  So to confirm - does this work as a calculator without a computer?? Or only with the calculator app and/or as a keyboard?

    It works as both a numpad for the computer or as an independent calculator. When turned on and in calculator mode it disables input to the computer. There's also a calculator button that'll open the calculator app in Windows.

    It's a Bluetooth/Wired/8Bitdo number pad keyboard, that by default works just like the number pad on any keyboard.

    Or, like Clear said, it'll work as a stand alone nine character calculator with old-school segmented red LEDs, or there's a calculator button to bring up the calculator app on your computer.

  Such a dangerous brand. Now I want the Model M keyboard and super buttons

    As someone who started their IT career in the 80s, yes the Model M is so nostaglic for me but I bought the NES one before the IBM one was release…..no regrets.

    Hahaha, you get 2 super buttons with the unit and then there's 3 additonal ports to add other devices (plus the two buttons on the keyboard).

    It's worth noting that each input can only handle 2 buttons/inputs , so something like the joystick or the super ABXY pad with 4 actions, take up two ports.

    I've got the standard button and the super ABXY so have one port available for up to 2 additonal buttons, but don't I need them…no I don't….I really don't.

  I'm getting "For security reasons your request can't currently be processed" when I try to add any coupons. Suggestions?

  Edit: Ended up having to go through the app on my phone as PC browsers wouldn't let me use coupons (Firefox/Edge).

  amazing product, bought the keyboard c64 from amazon the other day.
  Super happy with it, esp on the tapping sound, tapping feel, sturdyness, quality finish

  the only thing i dont like is the software, it works, but not user friendly at all
