By the way, since we've talked about the Switch 2 and the hardware of it, the mouse function of the new controllers is now almost 100% guaranteed:

Newly unveiled Nintendo Switch 2 patent confirms mouse functionality and gives more details on exactly how it will work, and I don't know if I like it

With the Nintendo Switch 2 set to launch this year, there's plenty of fervour around the handheld but perhaps the most interesting new thing is confirmed in a recent patent. Said patent shows how you can use the new and improved Joy-Cons as lil' gaming mice, and suggests you can use both mouse inputs at the same time—dual-wielding, of sorts, which is enough to make any PC gamer blush.

Filed in 2023 but only published this week, a patent (via Notebook Check) describes an 'input device' (the Nintendo Switch 2 Joy-Con), complete with a "sensor for mouse operation". Patents are always quite word-heavy, and so specific that they can be hard to read but this patent is even harder as it's originally filed in Japanese, a language no one on the team speaks fluently. However, there is an abstract at the top of the page going over some of the functionality and logistics of this mouse functionality.
