Oh and it apparently comes with some ingame items, but who cares about that lol
-
I want a mog ansi enter :P
-
welp FK looks like im buying it
-
Sorry, but that has to be one of the ugliest keyboards I have seen. I love Final Fantasy though :(
-
i just realized the Function row is numbered in roman numerals giving you that FFI/FFII/FFIII/FFIV lol!
-
memories of hours and hours spent playing this game come flooding back
-
The legend color reminds me of FC660C, so is it to safe to assume it's lasered and not dye sub?
Another note is that dye sub can only do darker and since it's gold/brown over black so I don't think it's dye sub.
I like the blue backplate though lol.

IT"S FREAKING TOPRE! OMFG! IT"S FREAKING AMAZING
-
Read the comments on Kotaku. People complaining that its just some simple board. One person complaining that it has no macro keys. HA!
-
so ppl still play this game? aren't we on FFXX.3 by now?
what I really mean, is that they should instead focus on hyping up the current FF online version and release a KB for that one
-
is it bad that i actually kind of want that?
and yeah, the comments on Kotaku are HILARIOUS.

I don't play FFXI, but that moogle. MOOGLE! I'm a big FF fan so just having this as one would be worth it.

Well I guess FFXIV is probably still an embarrassment for the company still, so might as well celebrate the day when they had a very popular MMO.

FFXIV:ARR is actually being received very well
im enjoying it more than FFXIV

I'm only quoting because your username is the name of a popular East Coast dance team here in Jersey. I really want to try FFXIV: ARR not gonna lie.

How is this worth $300 it doesn't even have any macro keys...and the space bar is stupidly small
Comment gold on that kotaku post
-
wow. That is one special edition Topre I would love to have. I especially love the metal FFXI bezel around the lock lights.
-
Practical printing method on the keycaps....
-
Fahey didn't even bother to mention the switch technology, maybe he doesn't know or maybe he just wants to hype up an expensive keyboard.
Meh, I gave up on Kotaku a long time ago.

i only go there for the comedic effect
especially when they decided to totally destroy their layout.

whatever...the pleebs can circlejerk to their green backlit rubber dome ****boxes
jk lol i <3 razer
-
It doesn't look too nice..
-
is that a blue plate underneath, or is the keyboard backlit?

Plate I suppose.

i'd ask my cousin to get me one, but i'd have to explain to my family members why im spending close to $300.00 on a keyboard....
But she'd prob be able to get me one as she lives in Tokyo.....Argh
-
Ok where can I buy it
-
Looks photoshopped.
-
Yeah bad render is bad
-
I'd want a moogle enter key too. Damn. What happened to that moogle click clack commission QUAD-shot wtF?!?!? Am I the only one who rmemebers that/
-
don't get me wrong, i love topre, but really whats cool here is the font and the ff theme stuff. whats the legality on doing a GB with a proprietary font like that? obviously you couldn't do doubleshots, but honestly i'd be okay with printed for the FF font and some moogle caps.
-
come on topre quit licensing your stuff for crappy boards
first 660C now this? can i assume we're getting backlights and macro keys next?
-
iam Final Fantasy Fan

-
iam Final Fantasy Fan

Looks like a fc660c with better caps

Why does it matter? I'm all for having good Topre boards out there as cheap as possible...

Also it needs a usb hub and headphone microphone jacks as well.

Topre is known for its quality build and keycaps.

So how does another company using their switches change that? It doesn't.
What it does is give people more options..it opens up the market for more people to have Topre board..heck, we may even get some actual choices in keycaps if enough people have Topre boards...

True enough, I would love to see some custom topre caps

From what I've been reading in debates and Topre related posts on GH is that the FC660C is a pretty good board. You make it seem like an awful board. You should complain more on Cherry licensing their stuff or crappy boards. This doesn't seem like a crappy board at all. It is just good advertisement and for fans who really like Final Fantasy. It an also open up to those who have never tried a Topre board.
-
Can anyone confirm what type of printing method they're using? I'm assuming they have it somewhere in the product description here:

I remember spending a crap ton of time leveling all my chars in FF3 (US)/ FF6 (JPN) so they could all perform the Ultima spell.
-
Damnit! You beat me to it!! I was gon' post this. Crazy keyboard, bro.
-
Perhaps if they made an FFVII keyboard...
Nah, I'd still rather just buy a sticker and put it on some keyboard I have laying around.

This looks like it is backlit in the photos but I have no idea how they managed to pull that off.

it's a really good advertisement if they get people to PAY for the advertisement.
also it's ugly. also re: fc660c, just buck up and get a hhk, the leopold's layout is asinine and abs caps on topre switches? no thanks. :llama:
-
Errrr....the 660C has just as many ABS caps as the HHKB, one. Again, the backlighting on this special Topre board is something that's never been seen before and is a pretty cool feature for just $30 more than a regular RF board. Wouldn't call this a $300 advertisement.

i stand corrected, and $30 for backlighting is $30 too many... and dude. it's a product name on a product that it is not. looks like an advertisement to me. let's fight.
-
Is it backlighting or a blue plate?

Actually, I really can't tell from the pictures.
