I'd love a steam deck controller. With that market taking off, PC handheld, it would be great to have that layout within a controller.
We have a pro-controller releasing this next month as well called the NEO S, which connects and plays flawlessly with the steam deck! Check out our website for more info!
@@crkdgg i love u and i love steam deck and portable gaming pc handheld
@@crkdggDayum really?!?!! I'll check it out for my PC, I've been using an 8bitdo Pro 2 for awhile and while I like it I wish the analogs were placed where you have them
@@crkdgg*frown* looks great but doesn't have the Stick placement like this
A@@ChudDin
Looks amazing, maybe give those who bought the original a 5-10% discount? 😅🙏
CLEAR BLUE PLEASEEEE
Wow, I have to say I'm impressed. You actually pulled this off. If it works how you say it does, this is a day-one purchase!
It's crazy how simple some additions to this controller sound, and yet you guys were the first to make it. The sidekick buttons seem like a useful step forward in what controllers already are, so it'd be cool to see you guys start the wave of this innovation. And even outside of other controllers: moving the charging to up top and allowing handheld docked version of the switch? It's like other companies were staring at this idea but couldn't actually notice it. And for the price, I may have to grab this and test it out. It sounds JUICY
Small correction:
Scuff did the "side kick" buttons before this on their envision controller.
And nexigo did the dock/grip hybrid for their gripcon gen 3.
But yeah, I'm definitely thinking of getting this too since it looks like the wiiu.
So the build quality is the same with the first one???Does it have HD rumble or mechanical buttons?
And those triggers can be used for games like Grid Autosport to have as actual trigger or just button?
I honestly could not use the first nitro deck since the right stick placement was causing a lot of wrist pain. Happy to see all the revisions, although it does sting a bit that I couldn’t return the original.
Will the new one fit in my old case for the first steam deck I rlly hope so. Meaning I can just buy the new one without worry of accessories already owning stick replacements and such
I think you sold me on this one!
Ps: it’s very rare seeing companies actually listening to customers. Well done
The purple and clear is soooo cleaaaan
Have you guys added some padding or some type of fabric for the back of the switch? I have a Totk oled and I don’t want the back to be scratched.
We've added more space, separating the back from the Switch. As well as an easy eject system, so you don't have to apply any pressure to the screen.
Yes! More info. Now I can see what it does now. Thanks! ❤
Would love to see regular colours 🙏
Audio support through the usb c on the back? It was my biggest downside when i got the first one my headset does not support bluetooth and i dont want to wire it in. Also does a dongle with hdmi and usb ports work for connecting wired controllers for example?
The Nitro Deck + will not have usb-c connection for headphones either, just like the original. Once the device is in docked mode you will not be able to connect wired controllers and only wireless will work.
@crkdgg, does the crkd app allow you to have like fully control of your nitro deck(+) or just the rebind buttons?
The plan is to allow for full control of the Nitro Deck +. As well as the pro-controller we have coming out soon, the NEO S!
Nice! Ok thanks.
I pre ordered but im worried the buttons below the right analog stick will be uncomfortable since they arent off centered at all
yup. super awakward, no matter what they do they can’t seem to fix the comfortablity issues with the right side buttons/stick. I see it being beneficial for arcade and d-pad heavy older games, but using analogue with the main a,b,x,y buttons will be super uncomfortable over extended play times. And it’s even more frustrating cause they sold so many of these the first wave because IGN promoted the crap out of them and I’m sure a lot of people realized quickly that they were pretty much scammed cause they don’t use more than IGN for gaming news outlets, when they were already getting poor reviews for comfortability elsewhere online but IGN is a huge source for gamer news, so seems sketchy they’re releasing another wave “addressing issues” when they are just milking sales thanks to IGN false gloating about the deck. You want a comfortable solution look up Hori Split Pad Compact, and they’re licensed by Nintendo unlike this scam product.
I’ll wait to see if it still shorts out on OLED models like the base model. The few hours of functionality I had were PHENOMENAL. The multiple replacements that didn’t work out of box were not.
Will the plus be compatible with the originals case or will you be making new cases for it?? I wanna take it with me and have it protected while it's in my backpack
It will in fact fit in the original carrying case, however we will be releasing another carrying case in the near future. So keep an eye out!
Did this fix the issue with the deck where it stops working with the Switch OLED? Concerned because i pre-ordered one and then my original just stopped working on my OLED all together. Works on my V1 just fine though. Seems to be a wide spread issue.
I have 3 decks and they’ve all worked on my oled the entire time I’ve had them. Didn’t even know it was an issue.
Can the triggers be switched to analog to play Mario Sunshine properly?
Are you going to redesign the carry case to work with the Deck+ since the right stick placement won't fit in my original? The Branded Microfiber String Bag is not useful when traveling.
The Nitro Deck + will fit in the OG carrying case, but might not fit as snug as some might like. So keep an eye out for something in the future!
3:30 Will the original Nitrodeck be able to remap buttons once that feature is on the app? Or is that only gonna be for the nitro plus and Neo?
It will only be available for the Nitro Deck + and NEO S
YES! Symmetrical sticks in the Wii U orientation, finally! The GamePad and Wii U Pro controller are still some of the most comfortable gaming peripherals ever imo.
Love to see that layout implemented here.
Will the Nitro Deck+ come in all black and not a transparent blackish one. Wanted it to match my Steam Deck OLED.
At the moment, there are no plans to produce other ND+ colorways. However, we are always looking to expand our product line so we appreciate the suggestion and will definitely keep that in mind!
Are the buttons any closer to the top? With the original the bottom joystick is difficult to reach. Feels like the problem is just reversed now unless the buttons are higher
you have the sidekick button and the back buttons to program to the face buttons so you shouldn't need to use them.
@@paulanderson929shouldn’t need to use them? really? that’s a really shit solution if all they did was reverse the original problem. they could design it in a way where both the right joy stick and ABXY buttons would be comfortable to use. It would be ridiculous otherwise.
hi crkd! may i know if you guys are planning to use backlights on the buttons ? i think that would be a great addition to the controller
Not in the works at the moment, but we appreciate the suggestion and will be sure to consider that moving forward!
Just preordered the black one really wish they keep the solid colors as those looked amazing especially that GameCube purple.
질문이 있습니다.
포터블 모니터 중 독 없이도 "닌텐도 스위치" 본체에 "c to c" 로 외부전원 없이 사용할수 있는 제품들이 있었습니다.
이런 포터블 모니터에 "니트로 덱" 연결시, "c to c"로 그대로 사용가능한가요?
가능하다면 포터블 모니터에서 터치되나요?
이경우에 외부전원은 그럼 필요없나요??
*Hey CRKD! Are you offering a discount to those of us that got shafted by the first one?*
Biggest issue for me was the right stick was positioned too low to be comfortable for extended play. I wonder if the ABXY buttons will now be too low.
well you can bind them to the back buttons
Awesome product!!
does it come with any pre order bonus? what is that usb to hdmi adoptar that you guys are referring to as a preorder bonus?
😊 i dont see it at checkout.😅
If you pre-order the Nitro Deck + it will automatically come with an USB-C to HDMI adapter. It won't appear at checkout, but it is definitely included for all pre-orders!
@@crkdgg thank you for clarifying, i am in Canada the shipping cost is quite hefty, is there any alternative economic shipping methods? thank you for responding
@@KQJai Unfortunately we cannot adjust the international shipping price, however we do plan on bringing the Nitro Deck + to amazon which might offer potential savings in terms of shipping.
I'm so stoked to get mine, I shelled out the money for a steam deck oled special edition, so this will make my switch match with the clear black. My WHOLE gaming setup is the old school clear shells in that smokey black so I'm ecstatic. After my 3rd switch dock died on me I'm ready to turn this into a Nintendo deck with virtually all the same functions as my steam deck. The thing I would recommend, that you could easily program and send through an update, is a mapping profile mode. Press and hold the remap and turbo buttons for 3 seconds to cycle through profiles of button mapping for different games. Or something like that.
Does it fit in the case for the first one, or in regular switch cases?
Or any deals on the Nitrodeck+ with case ?
Nevermind, seems only creditcard is possible as payment method, so not interested anymore.
Pre-orders are only accepted via credit card, however if you wish to wait until the product is released then you will be able to use the other payment options such as sezzle or paypal! And yes, the original carrying case will fit the Nitro Deck +.
When is the 'oficial' release date?
I want this, but the deal-breaker for me last time was the noisy, clicky bumper buttons. Are they soft/quiet now?
They are the same as the previous Nitro Deck
Symmetrical NEO S+ with upper analog sticks?
Did you guys add felt to the back to keep this from scratching the switch? If not that's a pretty big thing to leave out
No we didn't, but the PTFE rails used to guide the console into the deck have been altered so there is more space between the back of the Switch & the backsplash.
@@crkdgg will it hit Amazon around the same time it’s released?
@@christianmartinez5173 It will hit Amazon, but won't be on there until 1 to 2 months after the release from our website.
Hi I noticed I can't preorder from Chile, are you planning to add more countries?
Unfortunately we do not ship to Chile, but we are always looking to expand our territory! Stay tuned!
@@crkdgg 😭
I have the Nitro Deck but I'm looking forward to a Handheld Zen 4 PC 🔥
Any other colour ways coming? unfortunately not a fan of the clears.
Gotta get me this nitro deck ➕️ looks sick and amazing
the stick placement is definitely better on the right side. but now the buttons are in a bad spot. should have put them slightly up and to the left, kinda tucked under the stick
It does not appear to be radically different in shape or size than the original, so I would assume your current carrying case will work with the new Nitrodeck+, but I don't see any confirmation of that on your website, and you don't seem to have a combo pack with case and controller together. Can you speak to that?
You are absolutely correct, the dimensions are identical and the Nitro Deck + will fit in the OG carrying case just fine!
still no felt fabric to protect back side of the Switch from getting scratched?
The PTFE rails used to guide the console into the deck have been altered so there is more space between the back of the Switch & the backsplash.
Important question! I bought the plus edition shortly after it was announced. Will the old case fit the new model? I'm going on vacation shortly after it's scheduled to arrive and will gladly buy the case if it fits the plus version to more easily take this with me on my trip.
Yes it will still fit! It fits a little snug but it does the trick still.
Just ordered
Purple GameCube and Super Famicom shell/button colour options for the Nitro Deck+? The translucent colourways look clean, but even one retro flavour would be phenomenal and would make it an instant-buy for me (and no doubts as well for many collectors who like having a retro themed collection den). 🙏
How soon will there be new colors or at least the same colors (from the original)?
At the moment there are no plans for other color ways, but we are always expanding our product line so who knows what the future will hold!
Is there HD vibration? Or "SD vibration" even? I am interested in these but not if they offer just standard vibration.
The Nitro Deck only has standard vibration and rumble
@@crkdgg thank you for answer
Will this be available on Amazon? Ordering from the Philippines.
Yes, it will be available on Amazon 1-2 months after the initial launch through CRKD!
Cool, wish I had received my persona 3 Lrg nitro deck before you've launched a new model.
I like the new features in Nitro Deck+. I just want to ask something: are there any plans to have new design looks?
Not at the moment, but we do love expanding our products so who knows what the future will hold. Stay tuned!
Will these be available in the UK?, as the original Nitro Deck is.
Yes they will be! You can pre-order them now, or wait for the product to be in stock!
When the switch first released, there were all sorts of reports of 3rd party docks bricking peoples switch. Could you confirm that nitrodeck+ in dock mode should be safe from this issue? Is this related to the recommendation to use the original switch power block?
The Nitro Deck has been thoroughly tested, and there have been no signs of bricking switches! We do recommend to charge the device with the Nintendo power block due to the fact that voltage is the correct amount, which won't damage the battery.
Is it coming to Australian retailers like the original model?
Thats the plan!
This is amazing I love the layout of the Steam Deck. The right stick on the bottom of my Switch feels really uncomfortable. I definitely need to get this.
Im defintely grabbing this one, i sold my first nitro deck because the stick layout was terrible and its a bonus that you can use the nitro deck as a dock because i dont directly have switch docked for lack of space
I love this design, consider making something like this for the Lenovo Legion go?
The regular nitro deck will also be compatible with the hdmi adapter, or that feature is only for the nitro deck+? Great work by the way!!!!
Unfortunately, the OG Nitro Deck does not have the correct hardware to run in docked mode like that of the Nitro Deck +
Having the 4 buttons mapped to the back is prefect. Would rather have a comfortable stick with my thumb perfectly placed than the older OG design. Been playing duty for years utilizing back buttons as action buttons for xyab. This will be a seamless transition for me. Look forward to it.
Definitely want to get this someday, maybe if you release it with that classic GameCube color scheme like the original has
There's a serious lack of symmetrical controllers, so thanks a lot for this
Will the controllers itself continue to work when it turns into docked mode?
Yes it will! You will be able to dock and play, as we like to call it!
why didn't you add some cloth or something softer that doesn't scratch the switch when removing?
They added more space between
@@robertcastanpn288 that fixes nothing.
I need a Nitro deck + version of the Crystal Pink color of the original model.
It looks so good.
I feel a little shafted. I saved up, and preordered my son and myself a nitro deck. We love it, but both discussed how we wish there was a dock. We ended up getting those docks that look like a power brick. Then we see the neo s for preorder, I was impressed so I preordered one for each of us. Then…. a week or two later we see the add for this new upgraded deck. It’s just a little bit of a low blow. I’m not buying 2 new decks, but they are what we wanted from the rip. I wish there was a trade in or a discount for existing customers. Stoked for the neo s. It’s supposedly shipping in April. Maybe grab this new one on sale, maybe…
I’m in the same boat. The day my deck came in I received the email introducing the deck plus. I immediately emailed CRKD and asked if I could exchange it for the plus and they told me they had a no returns policy. Needless to say I was pissed. Their excuse was that this new deck wasn’t an upgrade but a “compliment” to the old model. Sounds scummy if you ask me.
When are you guys adding this to Amazon?
1-2 months after the release of the product, so looking at June or July!
Will you be placing the reserves on Amazon? Nothing personal, just for security reasons ya know?
Yes, we do plan on bringing the Nitro Deck + to amazon. However, when that will be is still up in the air. Looking at a month or two after the release!
I live in Portugal 🇵🇹 will I be able to order even though I am not from us?
Yes we do ship to Portugal and most of the EU!
Does the nitrodeck+ have better vibration than the original?
Yes it does, it has improved vibration and rumble!
What about having some sort of material on the inside the last 1 scratched the back of my switch to death
The PTFE rails used to guide the console into the deck have been altered so there is more space between the back of the Switch & the backsplash.

@@crkdgg thank you im going to order the clear 1 soon as i can
I really wish you guys had the color options
I love the controller and the fact that you can dock it but i lowkey hate the clear front. I hope they make a new color wave
I cant wait to get a nitro deck for the Switch Attach
I pre-ordered it and I have not had one of your products before, so it better be good
We won't let you down, let us know what you think when it arrives!
@@crkdgg good 👍
@@crkdgg when will it be shipped
why woukd you transfer the buttons below the analog? you guys know switch does not revolve on FPS games only, right?
you might have created solutions from the previous model but also created a new issue since it will be really uncomfortable reaching those face buttons in most games in switch
When is it supposed to ship? I preordered mine a while back
Did u get an email. Mine says it got pushed to June 10-14 from June 3-7 😂
Depending on how early you pre-ordered, they will start shipping out this week!
Really cool!
The only thing l do wish was in the original Nitro Deck or Nitro Deck+ is the trigger buttons to feel like the regular Nintendo Switch ZR and ZL triggers because they just don't feel right.
definitely getting this but you need the clear purple gamecube design it would be incomplete without it even if that was the only other color option I gurantee it would be the most popular design out of the 3 of them
I am huge fan of your products and already using nitro deck black edition 😎 and l start loving portable gaming as well. Already preordered Nitro Deck + edition (also waiting for carrying case to be released). Thanks for the massive update on newer version (super that’ve aded bluetooth option, its’ very convenient now). The only “negative” thing l’ve faced that l couldn’t upgrade software on Nitro Deck (downloaded official software is giving an malware suspicious activity, and antivirus blocking it). Hopefully l will be able to upgrade through mac in future 🙂👋
Is there any possibility that the nitro deck will be launched with the same color variants as its predecessor? because I really love the matte white color.
Don't have any plans for additional colors as of yet, but we are always looking to expand our products so who knows what the future will hold!
@@crkdgg I see... Well, I guess I'll stick with my old Nitro Deck device while I wait for the matte white varian to come out.
I honestly would buy this in a heartbeat if i had any guarantee of it working on the switch 2 aswell
It’s cool but I did get a nitrodeck in the retro blue color and I love it!!!
Would love to get this. But I would definitely prefer a flat white color way with no purple accents. Essentially the same color way as the white from your guys' previous model, but applied to this new one:) Think that could happen??👀
We appreciate the feedback and will be sure to consider that moving forward, however at the moment there are no plans for other colorways (editions)!
When's the release date? Looking forward to giving it a try!
We will start shipping out pre-orders in May!
Pretty cool!
Looks like a lot of good improvements. For sure want to see some more colorways though.
Which kind of colorways would you like to see?
@@crkdggatomic purple
@@crkdgg Besides "Gamecube Purple" again I think some call outs to iconic characters would be cool. Something like a "Metroid Red/Bronze" or "Samus Suit Blue".
Can it be used as a controller while docked?
Yes it can!
I don't know for $70 and the next Switch is on the way? I mean sure cheaper than joycons but we're so close to the next one.
I can already tell the right buttons are too low, just like how the first versions thumbstick was. I dont know why this is so hard to get right.
Can you guys send a few to mightyape in NZ when it's ready lol I'm more comfortable buying it from them
We do plan on bringing these to our friends in Australia and New Zealand, so keep an eye out!
Can I pre order it on Amazon?
The Nitro Deck + will not be coming to Amazon until a couple months after the release, so unfortunately no
April can’t come soon enough lol might have to pick up a second Neo s you guys making that chocolate one? Lol
I have a question.
Thesedays, there are so many portable monitors that support "switch" without dock. This monitors directly connect to "switch".
They use "usb-c" connect. And the don't need power charge to "switch".
When I use this portable monitors,
1. Can "nitro deck+" connect with monitor using these "usb-c" cable?
2. If that possble, don't need power charge to "nitro deck+" or "switch"?
The Nitro Deck + can be used as a controller as long as it is connected via the output post with a USB-C cable! So yes, if it is connected that way you won't need the switch to be connected!
Thank you, CRKD 👍👍
@@crkdgg, that's not what the video said! you guys said nitro deck plus has bluetooth and showed an animation of wireless bluetooth on the nitro deck.
I really want to buy this but I like the original layout better. You know with the actions buttons on the top and the joystick in the bottom. Can you maybe release a version that can have this?
There's no plans to bring back the OG layout at the moment, but we appreciate the feedback and will be sure to consider it moving forward!
@@crkdgg thank you for replying to me!
HYPED is an understatement! CAN'T WAIT to test this out! Thanks for featuring us twice in the opening section of the video!
This is dope
Oh my lord i can't wait ahhh🙆🏽🗣WHEN CAN I PRE ORDER😭so glad April almost here man the switch dope but ergonomically it ain't it. I had a "switch grip" think that's what they called it. Kinda feels like a giant Xbox controller & only $20 feels great once switch is in. Had it for a while. Nitro+ really is like a premium version of that. Truly gonna breathe new life into switch until switch 2 get here. Can't wait for that either aahhhh 😬🙆🏽
Does this has no nfc for amiibo or amiibo cards to scan since I'm recommending to my younger sis that prefer this kind of more get go switch
and someone that uses amiibo for AC and Zelda.
awesome review and new features and the appearance look like wii u
The Nitro Deck, and Nitro Deck + does not support amiibo
