Retro Handhelds Review: The Savage Raven FissionGrip Is Finally a Good Detachable Grip for Switch 2
Let’s be real—early detachable grips for the Nintendo Switch 2 were meh, at best. Loosely clinging to Joy-Cons with flimsy magnets, falling off mid-game… ugh. Enter Savage Raven’s FissionGrip, their most polished yet—and it actually works.
The key win? Secure fit without sacrificing modularity. Unlike the Genki Attack Vector or early Dbrand attempts, the Fission Grip keeps Joy-Cons snug (no tape required), and the central shell stays mostly intact thanks to clever side-flap support. Assembly? Slide-and-go in seconds—no fuss.
Ergonomics shine: Hard plastic grips mimic the Pro Controller’s texture, and the red/blue accents match Joy-Con 2 vibes. Bonus: The bundled Maxcarry case looks sleek and protective.
But wait—there’s one big “nah”: the lack of TPU. The Switch 2 is heavy, and hard plastic gets slippery during long sessions (especially in bed with the console perched over your face… we’ve all been there). A rubberized TPU option would be a game-changer—and Savage Raven knows it. (They’re clearly listening.)
Final Verdict:
✅ Best detachable grip yet
✅ Solid ergos & modularity
❌ Missing soft-grip option
If you want reliability and style—and can overlook the plastic texture—the FissionGrip is a no-brainer.
$29.99–$32.99 on Amazon / Savage Raven’s site.
