Must-Have Accessory for Your Nintendo Switch!
Color: PAL Grey
Since I got my Nintendo Switch, I have never been a fan of the 'wobble' that the Joy-Cons have. I've used various methods to stabilize the console, including backing, plastic controller grips, and even replacing the rails themselves with aftermarket ones to help. As it turns out, all I needed all this time was a CRKD NitroDeck. Your Switch slides right into this device, and (with the proper configuration!) it works absolutely flawlessly as a 'pro controller'. The build quality is exceptional, feeling almost as good as an official Nintendo product, the buttons are tactile and easy to reach, and back paddles and a stronger kickstand are absolutely knock out features. It is highly customizable, with configurations for vibration motors and trigger deadzones, and you can even update the device's firmware for more customizability, including the ability to adjust the brightness of the status indicator LED. I have large hands and always fumbled with the Switch. The NitroDeck effectively solves this problem completely. It does not weigh an unreasonable amount, and I didn't have any problems with the positioning of the buttons. The Switch can be a bit difficult to get out, but as long as you're careful, it should slide with a bit of gentle coaxing. All in all, this is a must have accessory for anyone who loves playing their Nintendo Switch in handheld mode. I picked up the attractive 'PAL Gray' version and love it - so much so that I am going to probably end up getting one of the Purple GameCube inspired variants in the future, as well as the equivalent, should it exist, for the Switch 2. Amazing job CRKD - you've earned a customer for life! ... show more

long review
Color: PAL Grey
i ordered the PAL grey version of the nitro deck for standard switch. i’ve only had it for about 5 days, so i will update this review if my opinion changes. size/feel/stand: i have small hands so i expected this to be too big and uncomfortable for me, but it surprisingly isn’t. i have used a satisfye grip - too big and my wrists hurt after about 20 minutes. the plastic build has the same feel as the hori split compact. i expected it to be heavier than it is because it almost completely covers the switch, but it has a lightweight feel and nice quality. the stand on the back is great. i’m constantly picking up and setting my switch down when i play so i’m very happy with the quality of the stand. it’s not loose and feels strong. you can have it at different angles and it holds nicely. joycons/sticks/thumbcaps: nintendo switch joycons are bad. the sticks are extremely loose and they feel cheap because of it… and stick drift. the sticks on the nitro deck are smooth like butter! and this thing is half the price of nintendo joycons. i did not order any of the thumbcaps that crkd sells because the price was a little high for me. i have a couple of pairs that i got cheap elsewhere and they fit/work fine. OLED/returns: i did read that some people have issues with the OLED and the nitro deck. i didn’t look into that because i have a regular switch. make sure to do your research before purchasing because i also saw that people have issues with returning (maybe they don’t accept returns??) vibration: a bit strong for me even on the lowest setting, which is a bummer because i do like playing with it on. you can turn it completely off though. i’m not sure if there is an update to change vibration further - see “updating” below. programming/home button brightness: programming is easy enough. the only issue i had was with changing the brightness on the “home” button. the instructions were slightly unclear when you have to hold most buttons to program them. for the home button brightness you only have to PUSH the program button once and it dims. once more and it is off. this wasn’t a problem, i just had to use my brain for a second. updating: huge drawback for me is you have to update the firmware via PC/windows. i don’t use windows so this is unfortunate and we’ll just enjoy the ride and see how long it lasts. i will say i did not look at past updates for the nitro deck or how often they get them but for me right now that’s not an issue. overall: i love this thing. i’m also saying this as someone that has a sour taste in their mouth with nintendo’s choices recently. i’m usually on playstation, but i don’t have a portal and i don’t want one. the nitro deck has made playing my switch fun again. thanks! ... show more

Well worth it
Color: PAL Grey
I definitely prefer the buttons and joysticks on this over any joy con I've used. You don't even have to think about the connection, you just slide the switch in. The charging and stand on the back are useful in a lot of situations. Overall very pleased!

It's looks like a little SteamDeck without the mouse pads. 😎👍
Color: Black
It's not bad, but for the price? I feel it should cost $30 or $35 bucks, not $50 bucks. It does nothing to improve the switch(1)?🤷♂️ only thing it does is the way it handles, it feels right when you grip to play, it's not heavy won't make your hands or wrist tired...Ahh like my SteamDeck.😑 All the functions work, Analog controller feel good. (Sorry no mouse pads like the SteamDeck)🙄 Buttons don't feel clunky & noisy when you hit it.👍 There is two usb C ports on the back side, one is for charging and the other is a out port maybe for controller(s)? no more upside down laying down the switch when charging.😎👍 Switch fit snuggly and tight👍 Back Paddle is a plus👍 Kickstand is real sturdy, better than the Switch Kickstand.👍 4⭐Star...for everything except the price💰👎☹ ... show more

Great deck and controls. Awesome support from CRKD!
Color: Retro Purple
Worked well and really feels great on smaller hands. Got this February 2026 and Unfortunately 5months later the usb-connector dislocated when I removed my switch. I notified CRKD and they replaced it with the same unit real fast. I am grateful for CRKD honoring the warranty and hopefully this time there won’t be any issues. ... show more

Best switch controller money can buy
Color: White
Greatest controller I own, right up there with my velocity one flightstick, the magnetic joysticks feel so smooth compared to potentiometers, and the range of motion for them is better than an Xbox elite controller! My switch never leaves its nitro deck now because of the awesome charging port placement and solid kickstand, it feels like a display dock and controller all in one ... show more

The best in town, but the usb connection breaks easily
Color: Black
Update: I have had 2 of the first gen and 1 of the 2nd gen. They all break within 6 months at the USB connection. It is like it becomes unseated and doesn't reach far enough or broken in some other way where pressing down really hard on the Switch will connect, but letting go and it loses connection. I never remove the Switch, but it has come free from dropping it. I am talking night stand to carpet kind of dropping, so maybe not so robust in the USB area. This is the most comfortable controller dock I have used. Putting in a back up battery would be awesome, you know after the USB thing is fixed. Maybe v3? Old Review: I've tried so many controller options for the Switch and this has the best connectivity and quality feel. The only downside is the placement of the right joystick, so I took off 1 star. The Nitro+ is releasing soon and has moved the joystick to a good location along with other enhancements. I like this docked controller so much that I have pre-ordered the Nitro+ and I am excited to get it. I will gift this one to a friend when I get the new version. Everything but the R stick placement is much better than the several other options I have tried, including the Nintendo certified Hori Split Pad. The biggest issues with the split pad is they feel cheap and flimsy, the paint wore off in a month or 2, and the connection is noticablly laggy. The Nitro is SOLID, I can't even bend it when I try. The sticks and buttons all feel excellent, but the back paddles could be a bit more ergonomic, 2 of them are great, the other 2 are just okay. The placement of the back paddles doesn't seem to have been changed for the Nitro+, but I can live with it and it might be better with the joystick being paced differently. The biggest benefit of this controller is the input lag, which is by far the least of any controller I have tried. I can even play Rocket League pretty dang well, still not as well as my 165hz gaming PC and wired DualSense with an overclocked USB giving me 2ms input lag, but hey, it a Switch. The lowest common denominator is now the Switch and not the controller. I can't wait for the Switch 2 and hope it's like a Steam Deck or I can get something like the Nitro+ for it. ... show more
