I don't know what they were thinking with "let's make a deck controller that isnt the deck layout" just looking at it you know everything wrong about it

@JPJP62JPJP 9 дней назад

I love CRKD and their products, but I can’t understand the Nitro Deck +… it feel like they rushed a « solution » for a minor problem. Also, on the business end… what do you do now in the future? Nitro deck or the Nitro Deck +? do you produce limited edition on both Nitro decks? Anyway… I might be wrong and I hope so since I really want CRKD to succed.

It wasn’t a minor problem, the device was almost unplayable. Your right thumb was resting on it the entire time, even when you press the top buttons.

@@AmateurSynthusiast I literally managed to fix the issue by just taking the spare stick top and cutting it smaller till its closer to the Gamecube sized C-stick, immediately fixed the issue for me, tho i still felt it was in abit too uncomfortable position, hence why i traded it for Mobapad's M6 joycons. Super comfortable in both hand held and as a controller! Tho i had to alter my joycongrip and remove its back so it was just the centre piece holding the joycons together, so there's still that issue. But i'll take it

I love my Steam controller for PC gaming. It only has two paddles on the back, but it didn't take me long to learn to use them. Doubling that might be harder, but I think it's something you can learn to use much more quickly than you'd think.

@InJeffable 9 дней назад

I like the placement of the analog sticks, but they look terrible. The Wii U GamePad and Pro Controller have convex tops on their sticks too, but they look way better than that. The Nitro Deck+ ones look too big around and cheap. And yeah, the face button thing really is a shame. They had the Wii U GamePad and Steam Deck to draw inspiration from. They could have used either of those layout styles for their face button placement. But nope: They chose the laziest option by merely swapping the positions of the right stick and the face buttons. On top of that, the overall plastic build looks cheap to me. I wasn't very interested in the Nitro Deck or the + to begin with, but now I'm even more glad that I went with the Mobapad M6 HD instead.

@lewa3910 9 дней назад

Glad i traded my original deck for some Mobapad M6 joycons. Superior in every way, except for lack of dock feature, which i can live without. My main issue is the remappable buttons lacking stick axis inversion, both CRKD and Moba forget to add this compared to 8bitdo ultimate's which has that standard. Honestly i would've ignore all the Nitrodeck +'s problems if its remap feature included stick axis inversion, it just sucks that the original nitrodeck can't even have full button remapping as you're right, the right stick is probably better off on the bottom even tho i prefer it being on top. I just cut one of the spare stick tops into a gamecube c-stick nub and that fixed the issue of being in the way mostly when i pressed face buttons. They could've made some spare stick tops like that but they don't :(

I just use Hori Split Pad Compact. Hands down, it’s the best way to play in handheld mode. It basically makes your OLED into a Switch Lite. When on the go, I almost never use my Joycons, unless I’m playing a vertical shmup game. If it had rumble and could read Amibos, the Split Pad Compact would be perfect. Still, it’s my favorite way to play in handheld mode. While it looks cool, I think I’m just going to pass on the Nitro and Nitro+. Still, thanks for the video. As always, you are fantastic!

@nathaniallarkin6060 9 дней назад

I bought the original and returned it the same day. it's large, clunky, and significantly heavier than the switch by itself. There is also the fact that the "rumble" is just a one setting motor that shakes the controller uncontrollably. If you want a holder for your switch just get one of the 10$ plastic ones that you snap the switch into, They work 10x better imo

@Brdo666 9 дней назад

I’ve had the Nitro Deck + for a couple of weeks now. I would agree that it’s not perfect, the Steam Deck layout is much much better, however I don’t find it uncomfortable to use. I find that I can reach the triggers just fine when shifting my hand down to use the face buttons (for games that don’t use the right stick), and when I do need to use the right stick (say in tears of the kingdom) I found that using the back buttons took about 5 minutes of getting used to. I definitely get mileage may vary depending on the ergonomics of your hands, but that’s true to an extent with all controllers. It’s also rad that this works as a dock, and the Hall effect joysticks with swappable tops mean I’ll probably never use my joycons again outside of multiplayer. So personally I like it 🤷🏼‍♂️

@Brdo666 9 дней назад

Also, personally I like that there’s a bit of wiggle room in the bag because it also fits the much wider Steam Deck. So it’s handy if you’re like me and regularly use both on commutes

@ludwig2195 I have been gaming since 1983 with the Atari VCS/2600. I own, and have owned, so many different consoles, I can’t even remember everything throughout my lifetime. However, I can honestly say that the Switch might be my overall favorite system. I buy physical copies of everything I am interested in. I currently own 249 Switch carts with 8 more on the way from Super Rare, Limited Run, 1st Press, imported titles, etc. When I get digital games, it’s purely for games that aren’t available in physical form. My main draw is retro, as in arcade classics and NeoGeo games. I do Nintendo Switch Online and it’s a decent service, though I prefer the Virtual Console from the Wii days over it. But when I look at the library of games and see what the Switch is capable of, I can honestly say that it is my “go-to” system, even beating out PS5 and Xbox Series. Yes, they are far more powerful and give us 4K, Ray Tracing, and 60fps on almost everything, but the Switch is a dream come true for anyone who prefers a classic approach to gaming. Now, I’m old and I’m an old-school gamer. I love classics and I love modern titles. When I look at Sony and Microsoft, I can’t help but be disappointed. These systems are approaching the 5 year mark and we are JUST NOW starting to get exclusives that take advantage of the power available in both systems. Even still, that doesn’t mean these are great games. Just look at the mess that is Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League if you don’t believe me. If you are on the fence, I HIGHLY recommend getting a Switch. While we all know the Switch 2 (or whatever they’re going to call it) is on the horizon, and will probably have backward compatibility, I truly believe the Switch is going to be the greatest overall system for years to come. I’m no fanboy. I love games and have for over 41 years. I have owned and loved systems made by nearly every company out there. Atari, Commodore, SEGA, Sony, Microsoft, NEC, SNK, Nintendo… I go for the games more than the system. The Switch just offers so much; either in the palm of your hand, or on your TV. Most importantly, you can download games you want, but don’t HAVE to, like with the Steam Deck. You have so many options to game the way YOU want. She’s not the most powerful. She’s not the newest. She’s not perfect. But if you are looking for the best overall system with (in my humble opinion) the greatest library of games ever made available, the Nintendo Switch is the system for you. Get one. It is 100% worth it.

Came late to the switch party, bought an oled about a day before I learnt the next gen switch is being announced soon. In saying that I watched a bunch of your videos and saw the original nitro deck review, which made me visit their website to have a better look. Upon arriving on their homepage I saw that they had this plus version now available so I thought much the same as you did in that the stick was in the most awkward spot possible and that the plus must be a vast improvement. Fast forward to this week and I’ve got the switch in the new nitro deck plus and I’ve got to say that it is indeed the same issue with the face buttons, HOWEVER, I have learnt to use the rear buttons in their place and not having to take my thumbs off the sticks has been a game changer for me playing virtually anything. As a pretty average gamer never having used any special controllers before this I can honestly say that you should still pick this up if you enjoy your switch, I never use the side programmable buttons but I always use the rear ones. Hope this helps someone out.

I feel the exact same way. I’ve tried discussing this in their discord server and it’s crazy how many people are defending this thing saying “but it’s what the fans wanted!” That’s such a shitty excuse. Like you said they should’ve realized how uncomfortable it was and just given up on the idea instead of trying to force people to rely on the stupid back buttons. I don’t know why this company is so damn committed to keeping the buttons and sticks symmetrical. This thing is already bulky as hell so adding space for them to be slanted wouldn’t be a huge deal. This and emphasizing the dumbass virtual collectable garbage is such a bad look. Really hoping they get their act together for the switch 2 cause there’s so much potential

I use an original nitro deck as my daily driver. Other than scratching up my Switch (which is whatever, it’s year one system and I’m not too protective of how it looks so long as the screen is nice) the obvious way to improve the controller is to make it wider to have a diagonal offset for the sticks and buttons. Unsure who approved this upgrade cause it’s…just not one.

@PillsburyNinjaKneadingJustice 9 дней назад

I was suckered into pre ordering the first version of this last year. And your review told me that not buying the new version was the right choice. On the original version... 1. I hated the plastic feel of the shoulder buttons 2. I hated how "long" the analog sticks are. It feels like I have to move them twice as far to get the same effect as a regular pro/Xbox/PlayStation controller analog stick. 3. The right stick placement essentially made most games uncomfortable to play at least. Sure CRKD makes a premium looking product. But it's a garbage premium looking product.

I'm still going strong on the original deck-yes, the right stick is uncomfortable, but I've found that most of the games I want to play portably don't rely on the right stick much at all. Played through Personas 3, 4 and 5 completely on the deck and found it to be a very pleasant experience.

Original Nitro Deck was a bit of a disappointment for me, back buttons that are too easy to press (had to disable them), the worst rumble i ever experienced (had to disable it) and many other problems really ruin it for me. I really enjoy the sticks, but and I like how buttons are now not-clicky (except for extremely loud shoulder buttons), but I'm not sure if the sticks were worth paying nearly $100 for it... And this one looks like it didn't fix any of the issues I had, but added more

Omg thank you for this review! I almost got it but was worried because of the face button. I know there's a back button, but it's just going to feel awkward. Thank you for the review! Shall skip these.

Where do you want them to move the action buttons? To a suburb three miles away? Something has got to be in that position.

Hori Split Pad Pro is perfect in my opinion for the Switch. I love them on my OLED

I wish I could return mine. I bought the plus and it’s horrible.

People complain if both sticks are on top or if both sticks are not on top, people just choose what you prefer

I don’t have much of an issue with either one. Most Nintendo games utilize the buttons than joystick. This is really the first time I’m hearing of this issue. I have 4 nitro decks and a nitro deck plus and I have no issue.

Still nothing has surpassed a satisfy grip but even that’s just a bandaid. Next controllers need to take ergonomics into account

I love the skull n co, the big ones provides extra grip to move the hand around. PS5 controllers are still the best, the pro feels super small after playing PS5 for a while. So I just got a 8bitdo connector
