Introduction
The Topre Realforce CS NEO is a partially debranded Topre Realforce 89 made specifically for 'Counter-Strike NEO', NAMCO's Japanese arcade adaption of the popular First Person Shooter, Counter-Strike.
Description
The CS NEO keyboard is essentially a black version of the Topre Realforce 89 (Model ND0100) with special keycaps. Like the standard Realforce 89, the CS NEO has variable key weighting, dye sublimated keycaps, and interfaces via PS/2.
The keycaps on the CS NEO keyboard are probably its most interesting feature. In addition to the standard functions found on the Realforce 89, the CS NEO also has pictures on the keycaps corresponding with commands used in Counter-Strike NEO, for example; the Control (Ctrl) key has an image of the player crouching to indicate that the user must press Ctrl to crouch in the game. Some keys have been moved and/or had their original function replaced completely, the details of which can be found below.
