CRKD's Nitro Deck+ keeps its best features and adds typical stick layout

Summary

Nutrition label

68% Informative

CRKD’s Nitro Deck turned my OLED Switch into an OLED Switch Lite, in a way.

The Deck+ is largely the same premise, a handheld deck for your Switch slate, no detachable Joy-Cons (and thus no drift) programmable buttons and a better hand feel.

The biggest visual change is a shift to symmetrical thumbsticks, which make the Deck+ look more like a knock-off Steam Deck than a Switch peripheral.

Both joysticks have Hall Effect sensors, which are contactless.

I can’t say I regularly used many of those six ( six !) new custom buttons, but dedicated Switch gamers may gain more utility from them than I did. Whether you should get the Nitro Deck+ or its predecessor hinges on what stick arrangement feels most comfortable. That’s the biggest difference and, for some, might be the biggest draw here..
