Nitro Deck+ Controller Now Available For Switch

[Peter Paltridge]

Everyone knows by now about the design flaw in Nintendo Switch Joy-Cons, which the company has never really gotten around to fixing, even after lawsuits. Eventually one of your thumbsticks will begin moving your character by itself without your input, and the problem will just get worse until you take it in for warranty or buy another one. There are other controllers prone to this flaw but the Joy-Cons seem to run into it far more often. This, of course, has created a market for third-party snap-on controllers that promise to fix the issue. CRKD makes the Nitro Deck, an all-in one shell that represents both Joy-Cons. You slide your Switch screen into the middle and you’ve got a replacement that’s a bit bulkier but also promises more comfort (plus no stick drift ever). Now CRKD is introducing an upgraded version of the Nitro Deck called — what else — the Nitro Deck+. It features a number of revisions based on player feedback from the original ND…for example, the right

Whoa, programmable buttons and adjustable trigger sensitivity? This Nitro Deck+ could be a game-changer for competitive games. Remapping controls and tweaking triggers could give me a real edge. Gotta see some reviews on performance though.

The Nitro Deck+ has definitely piqued my techie curiosity. Hall Effect sensors for drift-free control? Sounds fascinating! I gotta do some digging to see how those compare to the traditional analog sticks. Will they feel as responsive? Any potential for input lag? These are the questions that keep me up at night, folks. The programmable buttons are another interesting feature. I can see myself automating some repetitive tasks in certain games with those bad boys. But can you program macros? That would be a real game-changer for some genres. The adjustable trigger sensitivity is also intriguing. I wonder if it allows for a wider range than the stock settings? Fine-tuning those triggers could be a huge advantage in fast-paced shooters. Overall, the Nitro Deck+ seems like a feature-packed option for Switch owners. While the wired connection for TV play might be a turn-off for some, the potential benefits for handheld gaming are undeniable. I'll definitely be keeping an eye on reviews and user feedback before making a final decision. But hey, for someone who loves to tinker with tech and optimize their gaming experience, the Nitro Deck+ is definitely worth considering.

Pass-through charging? Thank goodness! Nothing worse than your controller dying in the middle of a boss fight. Still, hope the Switch battery life doesn't take a hit when using this thing.

Less is more and I like the simplicity, I will choose it over neon colors which is painful to the eyes and a vomit of rainbow
