Nitro Deck+ Dockable Handheld Controller Hits Lowest Price Ever

Prime Big Deal Days has slashed the price of the Nitro Deck+ to just $55.

3 Comments

There are plenty of controller grips to choose from when playing Switch in handheld mode, but few are as popular as the Nitro Deck+. The handheld controller is an upgraded version of the original Nitro Deck--and while it’s normally quite expensive at $70, you can pick it up for $55 during Prime Big Deal Days. That’s the lowest price ever for the handheld controller--so consider making the upgrade while you can.

Aside from those upgrades, the Nitro Deck+ offers everything that made the original so great. This includes Hall Effect sticks that are drift resistant, four mappable back buttons, adjustable trigger sensitivity, and a low latency USB-C connection.

If you don’t mind spending a bit more cash, you’ll find the Nitro Deck+ (Clear White Edition) with HDMI Adapter for $64 (was $80). This allows you to connect the device directly to your TV.

For an affordable alternative, the original Nitro Deck is also on sale for just $40 (was $60). So if you don’t mind the lack of Sidekick buttons and an asymmetrical stick layout, it’s definitely worth a closer look. You can bundle the Nitro Deck with a custom carrying case for $60 (was $80).

Regardless of which you pick, consider pairing your grips with the CRKD Gear Bag. It’s built with an adjustable strap for comfort and a water-resistant shell to better protect your electronics--and it’s discounted to its lowest price ever for Prime Big Deal Days.

Keep in mind that all of these discounts will likely disappear when Amazon’s event ends on Wednesday night, so head over to the retail giant and cash in while you can.

Interesting, but does Nitro deck and Nitro deck plus also work with the bigger Switch OLED or are they just for the regular sized Switch?

Important to know, because i want to buy a Switch OLED in a few months (and sell my regular Switch). To get the bigger screen. But if it does not work with Nitro Deck, then i might not buy a Nitro deck. Keeping Switch and getting an OLED is maybe not what i want to do. I think i might sell Switch once i buy Switch OLED. But for now, i might buy a Nitro Deck.
But if it only works on Switch and not Switch OLED i might not buy a Nitro Deck because it would not be useful with Switch OLED, and i might sell my Switch soon.. if i buy Switch OLED.
