I can try to answer any questions, but it doesn't seem like the 8bitdo Ultimate software is availible for download yet. Im not big into mechanical keyboards, this is actually my first, so I don't have much direct comparison experience to other keyboards.

but the buttons are big and f u n.

I almost ordered, but this was a deal breaker.

    Same, plus no UK ISO layout options.

    That's the real kicker. Ain't gonna see me using the shitty ANSI enter, and the lack of a backwards slash between the shift and Z key

    Yep, it's just a bit frustrating really. All they need to do is throw in some extra keycaps into the box.

    I just cannot do ANSI. there is no reversing 30 years of muscle memory.

    Edit: I mean, I can do ANSI. and other layouts - I have an original Famicom keyboard I love. But for daily use, especially work...no.
