8BitDo has announced a brand new ‘NES40 Collection’ of products which incorporates an Ultimate 2 Bluetooth controller, 68-key Retro Keyboard, and a rather fetching Retro Cube 2 speaker.
The new range, which is now available to pre-order over at 8BitDo’s official website today certainly looks stunning, and it manages to add a few nice little touches to a line-up that stick to the look and feel of previous “Retro” offerings from the company.
The keyboard (which this writer is 100% getting) is Windows and Android compatible and due to release in early 2026. At $499, it’s certainly an enthusiast-level sort of deal, taking the excellent retro design from their past offerings and adding a very snazzy aluminium alloy shell, along with some lovely detailing and a fancy pouch.
It also comes with those super cool turbo buttons that we’ve been loving since we picked up our first 8Bitdo Retro Keyboard.
The Switch 1 and 2 compatible NES40-themed Ultimate 2 controller, which follows the company’s Pro 3 Bluetooth controller in including TMR joysticks and Hall effect sticks, releases on 15th November 2025, and is also looking mighty slick as you can see below.
Set to retail at $79.99, it also comes with a bunch of changeable thumbstick pads, a keychain and a few other bits and bobs. Yeah…looking at these pics, we’re probably gonna need one of these, too.
The final part of the collection is the Retro Cube 2, a dinky little portable speaker that’s an upgraded version of its predecessor, and connects via bluetooth, 2.4G and USB.
The speaker uses a D-pad design for its controls, which is rather cool, and has its very own charging dock to boot. This comes in at $49.99, and will release on 12th December 2025.
The 8BitDo Collection is available to pre-order a little later today, and you can hit up the official site to go grab yours if they’ve tickled your fancy.
