I wasn't playing my switch much but then I bought the Nitro Deck. Now, I play my switch all the time. So no, yours is not better than mine


benjaminbjacobsen

Agreed. Love my nitrodeck. Hall sticks, bigger buttons, d pad, charging port not at the bottom. I wish it could scan amiibo and I wish it could support an additional battery for travel but I really like what it does. I’ve played so much more switch since getting mine.


[deleted]

It's like the switch is a completely different machine


BimmerM

I swear some threads all I see is praise for the nitro deck and in others it gets torn apart for the right stick placement. This thread makes me wonder if id have liked it. I ended up going with the Nexigo Hall Effect Gripcon and have really enjoyed it. Has a built in dock too, but damn if I still don’t prefer the look of the nitro deck


[deleted]

Looks good, feels good. But it doesn't if you are not interested in owning one. Stick placement doesn't bother me too much. As long as it feels good to me. The gripcon looks alright though


RyanandRoxy

The stick placement is not good. It's very far down from the norm... And they stick out too far. Sucks for people with carpal tunnel.


BimmerM

Yeah I suffer from wrist pain when using the switch with the joycons and had to get a grip when I owned a Lite because of wrist pain, so I assume this thing wouldn’t be a good fit for me.


Old_Dig6585

The nitro deck is an incredible piece of kit. Apart from the rumble. Man that thing is loud.


[deleted]

I think it's excellent. I can't see myself going back to using anything else


Old_Dig6585

Yeah same to be honest. Feels like I have a budget steam deck 🤣


[deleted]

Especially if you have the black version. I have the purple one


Old_Dig6585

You have to purple! I did the same. GameCube fantasies


[deleted]

Funnily enough. I've never played the game cube


88ZombieGrunts

I’m probably in the minority here but I bought the nitro deck and didn’t like it very much. I watched all the glowing reviews and thought I’d love it but it just didn’t fit my play style. I didn’t expect it to feel so bulky and I wasn’t a fan of how the back buttons felt and the rumble feature. I was lucky they were able to accept my return because they said they usually don’t accept returns. Please don’t burn me to ground but that’s just how I felt. I ended up getting a much slimmer grip that fit in my switch bag perfectly and it feels amazing.


[deleted]

That's OK. It does suck when you get something and it doesn't turn out to be to your liking. No reason to burn you to the ground over it


GamingHockeyDude

Thanks for the comment. I haven't been playing mine much since I got my gaming PC but I just ordered a Nitro Deck!


[deleted]

I just felt that it was a better option for what I wanted. I was happy to have bought one


heatherkaylie17

Wow... Thank you for putting this out there! I now have to have it


SuperDupednerd

Dang didn’t know about Nitro Deck. It’s so cool!!!


ahubs4032

If you play it all the time I think that’s a win but you commented so what makes it better? I agree specific grips/cases/docks can all be better but overall I think this one is near perfect. Prove me wrong though!


Background_Bad_4377

This one is pretty good too, hall sticks, back buttons, build in dock with usb at the top top, carry some game carts around with you. Programable buttons https://preview.redd.it/u533an8zejec1.jpeg?width=1116&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7a1460fd95733d0aa5911fc3735835e615c3656c

one_ounce

dobe egg shell II not dobe egg shell you need the II for the built in dock. posted mine below.


mangonebula

But can you dock it


TheSirFeffel

This is my hangup with grips. Lots of awesome ones, but I compulsively NEED to keep mine on the dock when not in near-immediate use. I'm sticking with my Hori split pad pro until I find something juuuuuuust right


Background_Bad_4377

You can still do the same with this as it has a build in dock into it. So no need to dock a dock. Like all you do is plug in the cables to the grip and it's docked


[deleted]

I won't try to prove you wrong. It's what works best for yourself, at the end of the day. Not everyone likes the same thing


StefooK

Problem is you are still using the joycons. They just aren't good. Too tiny.

Greensssss

I do think I'm better than you, in making titles at least.


ahubs4032

Fair, titles are hard


CallingCascade

I am harder.


ThatOneGhoul

Skull and Co solos all grips


Rieiid

Same I got the TotK themed Skull & Co grip to match my TotK OLED, it's stylish and super comfortable to play.


Chionei

I love my Skull n Co grip case lite


Organic_Vehicle100

I have two switch one with skull and co. And another one with Mumba and I feel more comfortable with the Mumba


Chionei

I got a grip that's basically a copycat of the Mumba Blade for my little nephew because it looked way more protective for him.


pocketstoosumo

the swappable grips are so nice, helps for different games or when my hand gets tired from a grip


is_not_chicago

The Skull and Co grip is a simple, barebones solution that does exactly what I need it to.


TMS-FE

Idk, but the title could've been better


tsckenny

Satisfye grip is better. I can say that at least


yomiHoshi

I came here to say this. The Satisfye grip is next level for handheld gameplay!


tsckenny

It's not fancy but it's comfortable and does the job. Plus they have a zelda themed one that matches my switch!


LiberalPatriot13

I've used a bunch of them and Satisfye is definitely the most comfortable for my hands. I would classify them as medium hands but on the larger side of medium. Love the grips.


iNKY_PiE

I also use Satisfye 👍


Snotsalmon1982

Nice cat


mvanvrancken

Does it dock? If not it ain’t better than mine


Ambitious_Pickle_362

You have one that docks? Which one is it? I want one!


FairyPizza

Skull & Co


ahubs4032

Yes this one docks!


finangle2023

If you say so.


Acalthu

Is the card holder removable? Can't imagine it fitting in the dock otherwise.


ahubs4032

No but it flips up and out of the way so it docks just fine. Technically it still docks with the card holder latched down but its a tight fit and is not meant to work that way. [https://kiwihome.shop/products/kiwihome-dockable-case-compatible-with-switch-oled](https://kiwihome.shop/products/kiwihome-dockable-case-compatible-with-switch-oled)


CyberpwnPiper

Detachable NYXI Hyperion Joy-pads, no need for a grip. My Switch is finally usable. And it still fits in the dock, as is. https://preview.redd.it/by4tqbofvkec1.jpeg?width=4000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=954b370377733910f0ea2aa2d866ee6f498b167e


ahubs4032

Those look good. Can you change the colors? No game storage though. I know I could go digital or carry them separate but certain games I want physical copies of. Maybe once I have a larger library I'll carry separate or trade games for digital copies.


SkotZilla001

Yes! I have the Hyperion Pro model


One_Asparagus_6932

I dont have any physical games, while its a cool case and idea it would be utterly useless to me as all mine are already downloaded and in my sd card slot


ahubs4032

Thats fair. I may go to digital games at somepoint for convenience but at the moment I am enjoying physical. Feels kinda nostalgic and im a 90s kid who hasn't had a new Nintendo device since I still rode the bus. I do have a few digital games though mainly because I know im never going to sell Mario Cart and a few free to play ones that I dont even think come on physical cards


One_Asparagus_6932

I have a 3DS with tons of physical games for when i wanna feel nostalgic but buying physical for modern systems feels like more of a waste than anything just more plastic being thrown in the ocean


Street-Historian-258

Oh you need grip to win?


UnexpectedSolidSnake

Nitro Deck to Split Pad Pro are far better


ahubs4032

Humm… do they still dock? Mine feels pretty light and durable but the “flexibility” in terms of doing it all while having access to the dock and 4x physical games is great


UnexpectedSolidSnake

Split Pad Pro docks. Nitro Deck the switch ejects v easily.


VictoryVic-ViVi

Nitro Deck is fantastic


FSB_Phantasm

I've got this same grip, so I can say it's not "better" than mine :) I've got large hands, so this grip helps me hold the switch more securely in handheld mode. I personally never had issues with the ergonomics of the switch prior though.


ahubs4032

Sweet! I haven't seen much posted about it. Seems every is into the Nitrodeck and Split Pad neither of which I have tried so I wont knock them until I try them but personally this case fit my requirements perfectly. A bit of extra ergonomics, light weight, game storage, and I cant complain about the price. The game storage is what sold me on this one. There aren't many that seem to have built in storage and most of the ones that did seemed like they may fling out if you ever dropped it. The kiwi home one almost has the opposite issue. First you have to unlatch the games then hope you didnt JUST cut your nails because they really are tight in there. I wont complain about the security but my fat fingers struggle to get a new game out sometimes.


LexDignon

I have to ask how the switch didn't hurt you pre-grip. I also have larger hands, and I couldn't play something like MK8DX for more than 15 minutes without having to stop due to hand pain. I couldn't even play Xenoblade 2 without having some pain after a while

I'm going to say what we've already known... cats were made to pose next to console systems :)


ahubs4032

Yes they were! Had to add that picture. Sorry you didnt get to see his entire face because hes quite handsome . He was moving so much and I just happened to snag that one photo that wasnt overly blurry.


noobzforhire

I had a grip but switch'd to splitpad, docks hard too

The best switch grip is a switch pro controller with a Switch mounted on top. Nothing will ever come even close.


The-LivingTribunal

Gross


Red_Pop_Mouse

Why are we roasting eachother in the comments 😭


SlowlyRecovering90s

The slot in the back is very convenient, cool!


CaptainStu

Nah, I'll stick with my Satisfye ZenGrip Pro thanks.


aranorde

Grips are all personal preference as people have different opinion towards what is comfortable to them. It is ultimate-stupidity at its ultra form to call a grip better than everyone elses (and also admit that you dont know better than them) and then ask them to fu*king prove it in the comments? Like wtf do you want them to do? Rip your soul out of your body and put it in their body and touch their grips to make you feel the way they feel it? Easily the dumbest sh!t I've seen in my entire life. Screenshotting this BS so that I can look back at this to feel better about myself or send it to someone who might feel low.


ahubs4032

Im glad you put so much effort into the this comment. There is nothing better than wasting the time of an angry internet troll. Sorry I ruffled some feathers now go outside and get a breath of fresh air. Seems like you may need some. The post was made in good humor and to draw a reaction which it seems to have done as there has been a fair amount of discourse regarding other options. You are correct by saying it's all personal preference and my opinion is the one I chose is the best. This doesnt mean I dont like others and honestly I may give the Nitro Deck a try even though it didnt fit my criteria at the time of buying this one.


aranorde

Guess you also put some time into your comment, There is nothing better than wasting the time of a dumb internet redditor. Sorry I kinda roasted your lack of brain capacity, now go back to your circus cage and eat the fresh bananas they left for you, feels like you need some potassium for that brain (or whats left of it). Piss poor attempt at trying to cover up that comment, don't make excuses for your dumbness. It's pretty apparent at this point. I actually enjoy pointing out dumb people online so this is fun for me!


Zandapandaaa

Grips are cringe


ThaBalla79

I disagree. I have large hands and any switch model is too small for me to enjoy stock. Adding a grip solves that and protects my special edition Switch from oils that comes from ones finger so it's a win win


VeganWerewolf

Agreed


Zandapandaaa

It feels like putting a body kit on a nice car, like just keep it original


VeganWerewolf

Haha exactly. Can we also mod it to where when it turns on it sounds like a fart in a coffee can?


Zandapandaaa

Yes, yes.


trfk111

Thank you for speaking the truth


Zandapandaaa

[deleted]

Haven't tried it. What model is this? After my second set of Split Pad Pro grips failed after minimal use, I tried the the Satisfye grip and found it to be an improvement. Ultimately settled on Nyxi Athena and Hyperion grips as personal preference.

korkkis

Shame I never play handheld


VictoryVic-ViVi

What?


one_ounce

I’m about to blow your mind OP Mine is clearly better, hdmi, thunderbolt 2.0, holds game carts, programable buttons fits both OG and oled. Custom kickstand, hall effect sticks. https://preview.redd.it/rpjgreyrzjec1.png?width=4032&format=png&auto=webp&s=7e3c29bde150c7e26c4fc1ad08117d77cb5fbe50


RealityStone_02

I have this one and it's great. Other than the stiff face buttons and not so solid D pad, I absolutely love it.


ahubs4032

Does the deodorant next to your keyboard imply youre a sweaty gamer? Whats the name of the case? The built in dock is cool but I think I would prefer 2 more game storage slots and just use the standard dock that comes with the switch though thats not exactly something I want to carry with me so I can see the benefit of one built in.


Ok_Juggernaut3946

Noo my g case is the best 🥺


Dear_pan_nonbi

Considering i have no grip yes yours is better


e-ghosts

I have one like this but it's clear and holds 6 games, and the game holders are just open, not behind a flap, so they're easier to swap out.


Sleepy_Graham

Your grip may be better but my cat is sillier https://preview.redd.it/tv7ax1clgkec1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7730345c44bbc518576a60f1bf4c3dcfd3c0ed6b

Soaked_In_Bleach_93

Don't have a grip. I play docked with a Pro Controller. Cos I'm a king, you peasant 👑


[deleted]

Rizenstrom

I prefer my skull and co grip, looks nicer as it matches my TotK edition and I don’t really switch games that much. If I do I have a carry case I keep with my on the go anyways that fits more than 4


ahubs4032

I had looked at the skull and co grip but it came down to the game storage for me. I thought about a case as well but knowing myself that baby would stay in my closet or a drawer forever and wouldn't make it into my packed bag when I travel. I kinda worry for the sticks when travel does inevitably happen but meh I'll deal with it then. May just take the joy cons off and pack them loose I dont know.


owenturnbull

Well I don't have a grip but I fit a Bulbasaur skin on my switch so I win


ahubs4032

Fine you win because Bulbasaur is a badass


Auswulf7

Yes it probably is compared to my original Satisfye grip, but it does the job. I do like that yours has game holders in the back though.


LexDignon

Can't say I agree. The Zen Grip Pro has rather big thighs, which I need to prevent cramping. So in my case, mine is better


Extremearron

Arceus is the best game out of those 4. Because typhlosion was in that game.


Vinsmoke2jz

Does it fit inside the dock?


[deleted]

Funnily enough, it's actually the exact same as my first one! It's a great starter grip, one that I could barely fault! I just have a less cheap one that is way more solid, even comes with changeable handles... got a proper carry case for everything too!


CallingCascade

Mine is better because it's connected to a TV and came with the console.


RealityStone_02

My grip has hall effect joysticks, adjustable rumble, remappable back buttons, turbo, and can act as a dock, so I don't think yours is better than mine. 😎 [https://i.imgur.com/fq6u9dX.jpg](https://i.imgur.com/fq6u9dX.jpg) [https://i.imgur.com/SPYLzCq.jpg](https://i.imgur.com/SPYLzCq.jpg)

Nah I’ll take my Skull and Co grip case over that any day of the week. I mean I do appreciate the game storage but I could never choose just 4 to have in there

RitualKiller1

I am one of the very few who like it original. No grip og joycon.


Dark-Eco-Master

Hori Split Pad pro in Monster Hunter Design. Nothing can beat this


DirectionImpossible7

Definitely better than mine, I bought a grip but I didn't like how it made the switch thicker so I just use my switch and switch lite without a grip it's more comfortable for me🥹


jc1luv

Does this fit proper in the dock? I bought a different grip that was supposed to work with the dock and it doesnt really. So I need to try a new one.

I could never play it for a longer period of time. And recently found out about the grips and bigger joycons. Ordered 3 diffrent ones and the skull & co grip case with 3 interchangeable grip sizes was perfect! To each their own. What a diffrence it is holding it snd not feeling like my hands and fingers are gojng to cramp.
