I think the Nitro Deck + is better if you map the 4 face buttons to the back paddles. Then you have a full grip with the thumbstick were your hands naturally go and still have access to the 4 buttons without having to reach down to them.

They should have just matched the steam deck button and thumbstick layout. Way more comfortable.

Great advice about the power cable; seen way too many bricked/damaged switches from third party chargers 😢

I haven't got mine yet but I would just use the back buttons and extra side buttons instead of the face buttons for shooters and I'd personally just stick with the D-pad for platformers.

Your a baller! That is not easy! At least for me. Lol

Yeah I was hyped for this and looking at it with you holding it, I’ll gladly stick to using my Satifye Grip for the extra space for my right hand. It dosnt look big boy friendly.

The Satisfye grip is good. And I use mine all the time. But the thumbsticks on the Nitro Deck + are fantastic!

Listened and watched! Thanks for the video and the feedback dude 🤝

I went on a limb and decided to buy one because it might work well fine with my smaller hands But a steam deck or just a better layout in general would be preferred. It really held me back till I tested the button placements by pretending with my joycons, but it's still not the most conducive layout, I just have small to average sized hands. I think for grip, at least the plus is consistent so I can grip from the same spot symmetrically, and also not hit the analog stick with the meaty part of my palm when playing Mario Wonder.😂

Doesn’t remind me much of a steam deck, but it really reminds me of the Wii U game pad. Like it looks like a updated Wii U.

I wish they would have actually made it like the Steam Deck

Never owned the original until recently . This was my first deck and at first wasn’t happy so I ordered the original on Amazon and sent it right back . This feels 100 times better than the old version . The rumble makes a huge difference as well.

I 100% agree. It was alot more comfortable!

Virtually made for fps. Just have to map the buttons to the back ones and you're good to go. With any level of competitiveness keeping your thimbs on the sticks is huge

They either need to go steamdeck or at least full wii u and made the buttons diagonally down. Thats why the Wii u tablet worked but if you make them vertical you have to crunch your thumb vs sliding them

I spent a few days to get used to this new deck. I was kind of let down initially. After a few days, I kind of like it. It’s definitely not perfect. I hope in the future, they can borrow more from the Steam Deck for button layout

I’ve had both Hori split pads - OG pro and compact and love them but the lack of gyro and rumble sucks. I passed on the first nitro deck and still on the fence about this one. I play mostly shooters so it could work but the vertical layout worries me some. Thanks for the honest review

I can't speak to how improved (if at all) the rumble is on the Plus, but the rumble on the original Nitro Deck is worse than no rumble at all. Just a warning.

@@shoyzdukes oooh okay that’s good to know! Amazon has the original nitro deck for $50 usd. You think it’s worth that price considering the new one out now?

@@bigslack_ As long as you keep your quality expectations in check and only compare it to third-party controllers (ie MadCatz) rather than name-brand, which is fair given it costs well less than Joycons, it's a decent $50 controller+grip combo, just with some quality nags. But given the choice, I'd lean towards the Plus for the symmetrical sticks, or perhaps the Mobapad M6 if you don't mind it not being one-piece (as the reviews for those seem stellar otherwise). But if you want the platformer control layout in a one-piece case design, it's decent. I am looking into the feasibility of modding new rumble motors for sure though.
