$60 (was $90)

See at Amazon (purple)See at Amazon (gray)Playing Nintendo Switch in handheld mode is a massive component of its appeal--for some Switch owners, however, the included Joy-Con controllers are lacking in the ergonomics department. As a result, the market of third-party alternatives is robust. Hori often steals the spotlight with its Split Pad Pro and Split Pad Compact, but the newly released Nitro Deck is an intriguing alternative, especially since it's equipped with Hall Effect sensors built specifically to avoid dreaded stick drift.

Amazon is currently running a Lightning Deal on two limited-edition Nitro Deck bundles, both of which pay homage to classic Nintendo consoles. If you're interested in this deal, you should hurry--stock is disappearing pretty fast.

Nitro Deck Limited-Edition Controller Bundle

$60 (was $90)

Save_Big_On_This_GameCube_Inspired_Nintendo_Switch_Controller_BundleThe best deal can be found on the limited-edition bundle with a purple controller that matches the GameCube. The buttons and sticks also match the GameCube, so you're getting a gray full-sized stick on the left and a yellow stick on the right side below the colorful face buttons. This bundle comes with a case designed specifically for traveling with the Nitro Deck. It normally goes for $90, but you can snag it for $60 while supplies last.

Alternatively, you can rewind time even further back with the retro gray bundle with a controller reminiscent of the Super Nintendo's color scheme. This limited-edition bundle is discounted to $70, down from $90.

The Nitro Deck acts as a cradle for your Switch. Compatible with both the standard Switch and Switch OLED Model, the screen slips into the U-shaped controller to give you controls on both sides of the display while also connecting to the USB-C port. This allows it to offer lightning-fast response times, as you don’t have to rely on a wireless connection.

Toss in a kickstand and remappable back buttons, and it's easy to see the appeal of the new Nitro Deck. You'll even be able to use a companion smartphone app to further customize its performance.

If you don't want the bundle, you can save $10 to $20 by opting for the black Nitro Deck (sans case) for $50 (was $60).
