Nitro Deck Firmware Update! Deadzones, Motion Controls and More!!

[@KyleS.1987]

This, more than any review I've watched, has sold me on getting a Nitro Deck. This type of post-launch support is invaluable. Props to ya'll!

[@crkdgg]

cheers mate, we're doing our best!

[@KyleS.1987]

@@crkdgg Got my retro purple Deck coming tomorrow, so stoked!

[@alexandercatterson223]

I wouldn't buy the Nitro Deck if I were you. It feels ok in the hands but the back paddle buttons are annoying bc you lay your fingers to grip it and you can't actually put any pressure down without accidentally clicking them. It also scratched the back of my Switch along where it slots in the Nitro Deck. But worst of all is the terrible rumble it's genuinely so awful that it ruins the experience of every single game that I play. I like rumble bc I can feel the game and what's happening but I've had to turn it off if I use the Nitro Deck bc it's just so God awful. I've been looking for a way to mod the Nitro Deck to put some actually decent rumble motors in it and if I had it open I would remove the back paddle function and then recess the paddles so that they are flat with the back. You would be much, much better off just buying some grips that attach to the Joycons that can be used while connected to the switch. At the very least in my area they only cost about £50 or €65 now so it's not as egregious as when it first launched. It's an ok offering at £50 but at £80 or whatever it was, it was a rip off. Fyi if you live in England or Northern Ireland buy it at Argos, they have a £20 cashback deal going on with the white model so it only costs you £30.

Thanks to you guys, I have not been docking my Switch since my Nitro Deck arrived a while ago. This update just made me happier, I had some trouble with heavy fingers on the triggers, when I slightly activated them when I wanted to rest my fingers. And the vibration kinda was too much for me, now it's just perfect with all that adjusted the way I want. Best Switch accessory I've ever acquired, thanks a lot CRKD

[@crkdgg]

Great to hear!

[@kyrelwalrus]

Just some feedback.. I think the home button brightness should adjust to match the switch system brightness! I think people would also really love a custom color toggle 🎨 Thanks for the update!!!

[@rinebeck]

Holy sh**t thank you for actually fixing the wired mode combination, I mentioned in the discord server but never thought you guy would actually take it into consideration. It was super annoying when playing The Binding of Isaac since both triggers are required to start a new run. Again, thank you!!

Thank you for the feedback! And your patience!!

Very important: You might have to run the file as an administrator (right-click and "Run as administrator"). Otherwise you'll go crazy because your Nitro Deck won't show up as connected and you can't update it.

[@danielfuentes6410]

mine istn being detected at all even when i run in admin mode pls help

[@TheHoodieGuy13]

@@danielfuentes6410 Did you stick to the correct order of steps? 1. Run the downloaded file 2. Then connect the Nitro Deck via USB (make sure it's in the output port) 3. Hold Home+X+Y and keep the buttons pressed until the update tool changes to "Connected". I know, it sounds stupid listing the steps that you probably already ran through multiple times. Just want to make sure. Sometimes the problem is so obvious that it's impossible to see. Or do you have another USB-C cable that you could try? Maybe it's the cable. Some cables are only suited for power supply and not for data transfer.

[@paulnovacek3715]

This addressed all of my problems! I found myself accidentally pressing the triggers while my fingers rested on them, and the stock rumble felt too strong in some games. Feels a lot better now.

You bought Apple, assume your choices and stop crying about it 🙄 If I was them, I wouldn't even try...

[@Vehlar]

One trick that I learned works pretty well for Metroid Prime Remastered is mapping the back paddles by holding X, pressing a D-Pad button, then letting go of X. It pretty seamlessly lets you switch beam weapons with the back paddles while keeping the D-Pad free for switching visors.

[@lewa3910]

Ok I got one of the crystal decks so i was already using this firmware, but I do hope to be able to influence the next version abit more. Basically I really want a design revision where the stick and button placement are less like joycons, being completely straight and uniform causing my right thumb to nudge the right stick alot when im tapping the right face buttons, and more like the typical pro controller or an xbox controller with the right stick being abit closer to the center and less likely to be in the way when pressing A/B/X/Y buttons.

[@tatedottech]

This. This. This. The offset sticks on this large ergo dock make NO SENSE. I actually find myself struggling with the right stick a little bit. Would be cool to have a "premium" version like scuff that would be more customizable.. OR... even better.. same price... just move the right stick up where the left stick is. That would be way more comfy. That said I still love the nitro.

I admit I was iffy on this at first but then a close friend (who knows I struggle with quicker style games handheld) was curious and got it himself. I have heard about the button placement and all but I switch between system controllers all the time I understand others may not like the nitro deck and I respect that but I’m looking forward to getting this.

[@MarkLangdahl]

To me the greatest part of the update is not even being mentioned. Before the update when I had the Nitro Deck plugged in for a long time and came back to it it wouldn't work until I disconnected it. Now it works with no problem at all. Considering I do most of my playing in my bed this is much more of a quality of life thing than adjustable rumble.

[@aaguilar_art5778]

I hope they make another version with the button layouts to something similar like the Pro Controller or the Steam Deck. This is the only thing I want to use to play games on my switch now and as much as I want to keep using it as my everyday controller, its current button layout is uncomfortable to use.

[@meldriccc]

I wish there was a firmware to fix the kickstand :( But seriously these are great improvements and much appreciated

[@WheeledHamster]

Please make one where the thumstick isn't directly below the face buttons. When playing old games where you have to use Y and B, the thumstick will get in the way.

[@Benjamite7180]

Take the stick off

[@sybooffenga1060]

This issue made me return mine. Rest of the device is topnotch but playing Mario Bros Wonder for example is horrible. Many times you touch the right stick with your thumb when running and jumping. Frustrated me a lot. Hope for an adjusted model with different right stick placement.

[@TheOldCSK]

This is the most elaborate accessory of all time.

[@Darklight65583]

Looking forward to trying this motion control update. It really messed with me the vertical worked just as good as the joycons but the horizontal was practically nonexistent. Thought there was something work with my in-game controls. I hope this fixes that. I'd hate to go back to the joycons, especially after going big with the Retro Purple, since my switch rails are going through some funky times again. Edit(after the update): Well, turning like a wheel works but the motion controls aren't up there to joycon levels for me. Vertically, oh yeah, it works! You can flip or point up or down and it moves like you would expect. Horizontally, you can't turn the console itself while using this and expect the same result, you gotta turn your body with it; like scanning the room and even that isn't good. Rotating works pretty good but i'm not trying to use this like a wheel. Especially when playing Warframe. Its a great product but I'll probably be alternating between the two, when i'm tired of my joycons disconnecting due to my old switch rails. Maybe I'm wrong. Maybe I'm doing something wrong. The options are still the same as they were for the joycons. Even calibrated the motion controls for both before trying again. **Edit EDIT** (After more extensive testing): It seems it only happens to games Licensed by Nintendo. Warframe and one other game I use to play suffers from the controller not going full/true omni-directional with the motion controls. I tried this with Splatoon 3 and Tears of the Kingdom and to my surprise they worked just fine! I saw a video of a guy doing an unboxing and testing and it got me thinking: I haven't tried this with some other games. When I did, I notice it was all games licensed with Nintendo and the ones made by them aren't affected by this problem! I don't know how the controller or the game end up doing that but that's what's happening! Maybe it can be fixed in the next update? Maybe I do have a bad controller. I hope it's fixable. I really do not want to go through the wait and the annoyance of my old joycons.

[@JDLM]

It's definitely way better, a very noticeable improvement

[@SoukaDeezNutz]

If you play Fortnite, there's a setting in the options to fix the gyro/motion control issue. I wish other games had that option.

[@XChanTV]

Have been having the same issue. Controls for Pokémon snap and doom now relies on a steering wheel motion when moving the camera along a vertical axis which is not very intuitive. But it works perfectly for TOTK.

[@shadowside8433]

Yes, I noticed the horizontal works fine in Splatoon 3 but not very well in Doom 2016.

[@feraldrgn]

I'd like a redesign of this, I've had my CRKD Nitro Deck (black) since its official release now & the right joystick position is very awkward due to it being too close to the edge of the grip. If you could just move the dpad & right joystick 5-6mm inward towards where the tablet sits, that might make it feel a little more comfortable. It won't fix it entirely but it would be better than it is, I get cramps in my thumbs using it & that way you won't need to add extra bulk. Also it would be very welcome if you could sell some lower height stick tops, I noticed there's quite a bit of room under the tops when you tilt the sticks to the limit.
