Razer Nostromo Gaming Keypad

Sunday, September 16, 2012

Yeah, that’s the kind of teaser you used to see in bold on the pages of Nintendo Power. Remember that magazine? Well, if you don’t, you SUCK and you’re not a real gamer like I am! How’s that sweet burn? BOOOOM, BABY! IS IT THE SHOES?!?!?!

Okay, okay, you’ve paid the price. Now sit down here and I’ll show you how I’ve programed my Razer Nostromo Gaming Keypad. Whoa! Don’t BREATHE on it like that! This thing is fine tuned with an ergonomic and intuitive design. All the buttons I need are within a finger’s wiggle at any moment, including a programmable 8-way directional thumb pad and, yes, a soft-touch rubberized wrist pad for juuuuust the right amount of “oomph” in my “bzzzap!”

So, let me explain how I’ve set this up here. See, this first button, it’s programmed to be the “Up” button. And this second one, right here, that’s also the “Up” button. Then, and here’s where it gets tricky, this next one is a “Down” button. But don’t worry, because right next to it… yes, that’s right, another “Down” button.

Okay, smarty-face, go ahead and tell me what the next four buttons are. Mmm hmm, mmm hmmm, right, right… okay, well played. But I bet you can’t guess what… yes, that’s actually correct as well. I might have misjudged you, stranger. How about a few rounds of Pac-Man to smooth things over?
