Perhaps the fact that it's so easy to make could be another reason it should be made?Gumpyyy wrote:

Well, shipping parts can be a pain, though i have a couple arduinos lying aroundGumpyyy wrote:

It looks like blue mechanical switches in this picture however, after searching google for this 五脚轴 it seems that they aren't official cherry mx switches but some other kind of mechanical switch (maybe kailh?) http://gd1.alicdn.com/imgextra/i1/1895821576/T2Vcp3X18XXXXXXXXX_!!1895821576.jpgxasuma wrote:

I am trying to get one, but im not sure if they are mechanical switches / and what color switches.
I know you can choose the (decorative) color of the key caps when you order. But other than that I don't get much after google translating the site.
Do they ship anywhere in the world? And can you pay with any credit card?

Instead of a keyboard with only 2 keys for osu!standard, how about a keyboard for all gamemodes?
Something like this;
I think this would cost around 20$.
nonono 五脚轴 is basically Chinese for "5-legged switch" (轴 means "axis" which is used to describe the switch), which is different from a 三脚轴 (3-legged switch) which has the additional 2 supportive legs removed. This is better illustrated by this post: http://tieba.baidu.com/p/2485721339 (in Chinese; see the last pic of OP)heethoofd27 wrote:

That would be incredible. I would pick that up imediately if they were made available.Fr33z3R wrote:
With that price of that, it could be a good idea to have a bundle deal with the osu!tablet.
With that particular one you have to reprogram it though. It also isn't available in Europe if I remember corectly.dagambler999 wrote:
There are some DIY kits I've seen online, this doesn't have a case or buttons but has full functionality. I suppose having them pre-assembled with a case would work.
well, usually github has the code you need for most of the work here..heethoofd27 wrote:

Well, they're made to withstand 50(linear) or 30(tactile and clicky) milion keystrokes, so I'd say they should last quite a while. Besides, if the pad would use PCB mounts then you could pop open the switch and replace the insides with new ones without any soldering.Purple wrote:
I like the idea of an osu! keyboard but as I have mentioned in the past, Cherry MX switches are made for typing, not to withstand the force of a 240 BPM beatmap play. Arcade microswitches are, and those should be used instead. Only problem with arcade microswitches is that I don't think they have any sort of tactile feedback like blue/brown/clears have, but they make up for it by being much more precise.
30-50 million normal keystrokes, but not this. In any case, replacing them should be trivial like you said, so it is indeed not much of an issue, but I overall I would have preferred it if the effort was put into using arcade parts instead.Fenek Alfa wrote:

No one would try singletapping 440 BPM on them. So that's not an issue.Purple wrote:

Is that ¥750.00 meant for RMB or Japanese yen?
I agree here. It'd need to be usable for all game modes and that would be a waste for majority of players who don't play all the modes. If they have separate keyboards for each game mode it'd be too expensive to manufacture.laishiou wrote:
making a proper keyboard like this would be difficult as it requires consideration for all game modes which means putting in at least 10 keys to suit osumanias future change plans, there is also the option to make a regular keyboard with osu branding, the main issue tho is that you would have to create all 4 types of switchs plus the laptop sisscor switchs without key rollover trolling. this isnt too difficult but from the manufacturing side, the buyers might not be enough to make production in this product worthwhile, otherwise i would totally request a rubber dome, scissor switch keyboard with n key rollover~~ or at least 10kro

The reason for selling osu!tablets was to make tablet gaming affordable to more people, not to encourage tablet > mouse.dagambler999 wrote:
On another note, if there's an osu! themed Huion 420 for sale... Isn't it also more logical to encourage both playstyles by offering an osu! themed mouse?? Namely the Logitech G100s?

These have a case-http://techkeys.us/products/threekeyboard or if you want to save money, you can just get get the PCB.FieryLight wrote:
