No matter which you choose, both of these numpad-less mechanical keyboards can spruce up any home office or add a bit of fun to long study sessions. The Western-style “N Edition” is inspired by the original NES controller, while the cheaper board resembles the OG Famicom in color and style. Both come with a pair of programmable “Super Buttons” that scream retro, along with hot-swappable switches that allow for a more personalized experience.
