I almost forgot what tomorrow is.

Also, it's not the second Nintendo keyboard. Nintendo has had one or two since the BASIC keyboard.

Is it an April Fool joke?

At least, I can tell the Trackpoint in the photo can hardly move at all.

But nice design and concepts (not sure about the swinging part), will definitely buy such a board if it actually exists.

I do not know the details.
But my friend in Topre said it was a slide to be announced at the Taipei Computex show(https://www.computextaipei.com.tw/)
 in May. I think there's a Topre employee on this forum. I'd like someone to reply from Topre.

Obviously the hand sensor is for switching layouts. Thumbs up for English, thumbs down for Italian and WTF sign for Japanese layout.  :cool:

At the swinging pic I thought you could connect it to the Nintendo switch and Play Wii games with it... /smoked

Wrong, this is the hand gesture for Italian layout activation.

Although this keyboard is a joke of April Fool's Day, it seems to contain many features that many people want.
Even if you are not a fan of realforce.

Me too. I really wanted it.



And this keyboard is actual Realforce "custom" keyboard.
"Realforce NES Edition"(Custom)
O Usb and Bluetooth support
O track point
O volume knob

but there is no "hand motion sensor" or "gyro acceleration sensor".
it was totally joke. Not practical at all. and useless.  ;D :p
