Genius may be a bit ambitious in its hopes that customers will flock to a keyboard with a price of $100 / 74.38 Euro, even if it is loaded with gaming features, but we'll let buyers decide.

Dubbed Imperator Pro, the new peripheral can operate in what is called “game mode”, during which the windows key is deactivated.

The Pro also lets up to 18 macro keys be assigned. Even more importantly, the anti-ghosting function makes it possible to press down 18 keys at once without issue (on-board memory helps).

Genius also tossed in Full color 16 million pulsating RGB backlight with 3 levels of brightness and speed, plus a blue LED power indicator and two US ports for other peripherals. See the video above or the product page for more.
