Custom Dreamcast keyboard

Post by tsowell »

Hi all, I just wanted to show off the custom Dreamcast keyboard I got from WASD Keyboards. There are a few more photos in this blog post which also documents a quick hack for turning a USB keyboard into a true Dreamcast keyboard by butchering a Total Control 5.

Here's the obligatory battlestation pic:

This is the coolest thing I've seen all year. Then again, I've been in Quarantine California so I haven't seen much of anything, but THIS IS SO BAD ASS!

Awesome setup. I love the romplers on the left!
Now I just need to find a way to prematurely yellow the white plastic so that it matches the rest of my peripherals. Or leave it out in the sun for a decade or two.

I saw this when you originally posted it, but just have to say. I love it, it has that retro battlestation look to it which I love! I personally like my DC on an HD screen over VGA, but this is so beautiful I can't look away from it.
