It’s been kinda a slow week as far as Deck news goes, so seems like a good time for a discussion post.

What’s something that’s significantly improved your deck experience? It can be a hardware accessory, software, decky plugin, etc.

    Back button “enhancement set”.

    Hated the stock back buttons and just never used them because they lined up exactly with the joint on my finger.

    These just stick on with some 3M tape (definitely clean prior to application) and my fingers rest on the buttons now - and they’re way easier to click.

    I also grabbed some thumb stick cover things, but those aren’t as “game changing”

      Alternatively replace them if you’re doing the back, and or face, plate swap. I did it with Jsaux Gameboy Purple.

      Same result.

      I never used them before the swap, and now I use them in every game.

      Honestly the deck is always in the case so I don’t see the purple but I do notice the back triggers.

        Oh that’s nice, I didn’t realize the plate swap had new buttons with it. I’ve been tempted to look into it more but it felt daunting - even with a decent amount of experience pulling stuff apart
