If you’re looking in support of a new controller in favor of your Nintendo Switch and celebrate 30 years of Hellboy, then the upcoming special-edition Nitro Deck and Neo S controllers will almost certainly be of interest. Featuring artwork sourced from the iconic Hellboy comic book Seed of Destruction, these special-edition controllers are available to preorder now for $60 each ahead of their mid-June release date.

Like the other Nitro Decks offered by CRKD, the Hellboy edition comes with full-size Hall Effect analog sticks and triggers, a conventional D-pad, four remappable back buttons, motion controls, rumble, turbo function, and curved handles. The cradle is compatible with both the standard and OLED Switch models, has a built-in kickstand in favor of tabletop mode, and passthrough USB-C ports in support of charging and playing on a TV (with an adapter). The four back buttons can be remapped on the fly, and you can further customize your experience alongside the smartphone companion app. Stick caps can be swapped easily, and you’ll get a pair of alternate caps with the controller. Packs of eight stick caps can be purchased separately for $20. This particular Nitro Deck model doesn’t come with a carrying case, but you can purchase a case separately in favor of $30.

The Neo S controller features similar Hellboy designs and is a cool option if you’re a admirer of retro gaming. Alongside NES, SNES, and Sega Genesis libraries available through Switch Online, this is a amusing little device to have in favor of when you’re in the mood in exchange for an old-school gaming experience. It also has everything you need in favor of modern games, including a pair of analog sticks, four triggers, turbo function, and motion controls. Like the Nitro Deck, it has remappable back buttons (only two though), Hall Effect sticks, and has companion app support to adjust vibration intensity, stick dead zones, and stick sensitivity.
If you’d like something different, CRKD offers GameCube-inspired and SNES-inspired Nitro Deck bundles together several other color variants. These are usually $90, but they’re often on sale at Amazon.
The Nitro Deck recently joined GameSpot’s list of the best Nintendo Switch controllers.
