There are plenty of Nintendo Switch deals on the shelves for Christmas this year, but one sits on a newly released accessory that's caught the attention of Switchers everywhere - including mine. What's more, the CRKD Nitro Deck is now back down to its lowest ever price - one I've only previously seen over Black Friday.
In all the madness, I skipped this $10 discount (now $49.98, was $59.99 at Amazon) last month. I have my Hori Split Pad Pro wrapped around my console constantly and didn't feel the need to add another Nintendo Switch controller to my roster just yet. Since then, I've started playing Alien: Isolation, though. The gyro controls featured in the CRKD Nitro Deck (not to mention the rumble effects) would come in particularly handy here - these are both features Hori doesn't offer in its similarly priced Split Pad Pro.
So I'm diving in today - after all, the Nitro Deck has been stubborn at its $59.99 MSRP since launch - barring this drop over Black Friday. Whether you're after gifts for gamers or you're perusing the latest Christmas sales for your own setup, this is a must-see for anyone kicking off their search with some Nintendo Switch deals.
CRKD Nitro Deck | $59.99 $49.98 at Amazon
Save $10 - The CRKD Nitro Deck took its first ever price cut over Black Friday, and now we're back down to the very same record low in this week's Christmas sales. That's excellent considering this is a particularly tricked out Joy-Con replacement system that's stayed at MSRP since its launch earlier this year.
Buy it if:
✅ You find Joy-Con uncomfortable
✅ You don't want to risk stick drift
✅ You still need rumble and gyro controls
Don't buy it if:
❌ You don't want to bulk out your console
❌ You want a luxury feel
