If you own a Nintendo Switch and you haven’t bought a Nitro Deck yet, then this might be the deal to finally entice you into doing so. That’s because the superb handheld Switch accessory has just dropped to its lowest-ever price atAmazon.
Right now, you can pick up the standard edition Nitro Deck for just$44.98(was $59.99). That beats out the previous low of $49.98, which we saw back in January of this year - by a whole five bucks. The discount linked above is for the black colorway specifically. However, all standard edition colors share the same price drop, and we’ve listed those below.

We consider the Nitro Deck to be one of thebest Nintendo Switch accessoriesyou can buy. In our fullNitro Deck review, we gave the unit a full five out of five stars, praising its excellent build quality, drift-eliminating Hall effect sticks, and a reduction in input latency via its built-in USB-C connector.
It’s a versatile accessory, too, fitting both theNintendo SwitchandNintendo Switch OLED modelswith ease. That said, it’s understandable that its additional size and weight may not be what you’re looking for in a handheld device, but the benefits it brings more than makeup for this in our view.
