The Shrimp


Nordic Game Supply (NGS), an independent distributor of video/computer games and related peripherals, has introduced “The Shrimp,” a new compact keyboard. It is a small gaming keyboard that may be used while traveling with your gaming laptop rather than bringing a big keyboard. It features a standard layout, which means the keys are the same and in the same places as on a regular keyboard. The Shrimp comes with a 25-key layout that you can use as is or modify in-game. There is no need for any software or techniques.

When it comes to design aspects, the keyboard has new Gateron G Pro switches plated on an elegant Nordic design body, which has a bunch of sound dampening magic built inside it. Also, there is a detachable, magnetically connectable wrist rest with soft padding and a textured surface. The firm claims that the classic Cherry profile of the keyboard is a bit lower and better shaped than on most industry keyboards using the OEM profile. The keycaps feature an “oversized” lettering which carries more light which in-turn brings RGB illumination.

Technical details of The Shrimp:

  • Ultra-Compact mechanical gaming keyboard
  • 25-key GLOBAL layout with super stunning “oversized” lettering
