Gaming keyboards are all the rage these days, and for Prime Day, you can score a big deal on 8BitDo’s excellent line of retro-themed devices. These are available in several variants, but the standout deal here is the 8BitDo C64 keyboard, as not only do you get a device that pays homage to the Commodore 64 with its color scheme, but big action buttons and a joystick, all for just $88. Considering it normally costs $110, this is quite the bargain. If those colors don’t catch your eye and you’re not too concerned about losing out on a free joystick, you can also check out the Famicom and NES-inspired keyboards for sale.
