I love my Nintendo Switch. It’s a fantastic hybrid console that I can play on the big screen or on the go. In that respect, it has a distinct advantage over its console rivals as being incredibly versatile. It also has a plethora of fantastic titles such asThe Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild,Pokémon Legends: Arceus,Metroid DreadandSuper Mario Bros. Wonder. Likely seriously, what is there not to love about this awesome system?

For that reason, I play my Nintendo Switch far less than I’d like to and that frustrates the heck out of me. I loveThe Legend of Zeldaseries andMetroid Dreadbut it takes me an age to get through these games due to my disability. I even purchased a snazzyTears of the KingdomHori Split Pad and while I can get more game time than the standard Joy-Con, 20 to 30 minutes is a real push. I’d pretty much given up hope of having proper gaming sessions on my Nintendo Switch, as I do with my PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X. That was until I was sent the CRKD Nitro Deck+.

At first, I was dubious about the four-button placement just under the right analogue stick on the CRKD Nitro Deck+. In an instant, my hand started to cramp as I moved from analogue stick to button press during gameplay. Then it dawned upon me that the CRKD Nitro Deck+ has four programmable buttons on the back. This was a game changer for me because without even realising it, I was playingSonic Superstarsfor close to an hour and the only reason I stopped playing was because tea was ready. The sturdy, thick design of the CRKD Nitro Deck+ also helps greatly, because I can grip the device comfortably and my hands rest perfectly.
I can’t overstate how important this is for me. Don’t get me wrong, my arthritis still hurts a lot when gaming, but for the first time in years, I know that I can play at least an hour on my Switch (maybe more) without being too worried about the physical pain it will cause. Put it this way, it’s taken me years to get throughThe Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wildand I’m now at its final battle and I can genuinely look forward to finally playingTears of the Kingdom, thanks to the CRKD Nitro Deck+.

I cannot say for sure whether or not you’ll get the same experience using the CRKD Nitro Deck+. I can only speak from my own experience. That being said, if you suffer from a similar disability as I do, CRKD Nitro Deck+ might be your best bet yet to change your game too. You can read ourreview of the CRKD Nitro Deck+for an in-depth analysis. Now, if you excuse me, I’m off to playLuigi’s Mansion 2 HD.
