Feeling nostalgic for the Game Boy’s glossy purple buttons? The Key Boy is a custom wireless keyboard, designed and built by YouTube’s The Lesser The Besser, that swaps traditional keycaps for 3D-printed recreations of the Game Boy’s controls, as spotted by Retro Dodo. The Key Boy may not offer an ideal typing experience, but it looks great, and was cleverly designed as a shell that simply wraps around a Logitech K380 wireless keyboard.

    It’s aesthetically kinda cool I guess but I lost interest when I realized it’s literally just a skin around a keyboard. I thought he was going to just use the keyboard’s insides and shell as a starting point. His buttons are pressing other buttons underneath.

      Seems like $40 for the keyboard underneath, and the shell is 3D printed.
