The Nitro Deck is a must-have for Nintendo Switch owners and it’s cheaper than ever, even after Black Friday
We gave the Nitro Deck five out of five stars in our review - now it's got 20% off
Heads up, Nintendo Switch owners - the Nitro Deck (which we gave five stars in our review), is still down to its record-low price at Amazon even after Black Friday as ended, with big savings across multiple models.
Cutting to the chase, the standard white and black models are both currently $10 off, costing $49.99 at Amazon instead of $59.99, but the purple model - which also comes with a carry case - is $20 off and costs $69.99 at Amazon instead of the usual $89.99. As far as we can tell, these are both record-low prices for the relatively new Nintendo Switch accessory.
If you’ve been looking out for Black Friday gaming deals, and more specifically any Black Friday Nintendo Switch deals, as one of the best Nintendo Switch accessories, this Nitro Deck deal is easily one of the best ones we’ve seen yet.
If you’re unfamiliar with the Nitro Deck, it’s a handheld dock that makes using your Switch in handheld mode more comfortable than ever before, boasting an overall larger build than a regular, uncased console. As well as a whole host of lovely, tactile buttons to match those of your usual Joy-Con controllers, the Nitro Deck includes programmable back buttons.
Perhaps most importantly, it also takes full advantage of Hall effect control sticks, which are immune to stick drift - an issue where your controller sticks no longer respond accurately, and inputs can go off in the wrong direction or happen when they’re not supposed to.
The whole package is super stylish, too, with the accessory available to buy in black, white, purple, grey, and mint green. Currently, Amazon customers in both the US and the UK can grab the black, white, and purple versions at a huge discount.
