Or use an actual mouse (Nintendo)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Koei Tecmo has revealed a new detail about the Nintendo<\/a> Switch 2<\/a>, and it’s a win for anyone excited about mouse controls.<\/p>\n

After Nintendo’s big blowout for the Switch 2<\/a> last month, there were perhaps more questions than answers around some aspects of the console.<\/p>\n

Some of these have been answered since, like what the revamped eShop looks like<\/a>, what the actual upgrades are for original Switch titles<\/a>, and how those Game-Key cards<\/a> exactly work, but there are still several unknowns around the hardware’s functionality.<\/p>\n

While Nintendo was perhaps holding back some of these surprises for when the Switch 2 launches<\/a> worldwide on June 5, developer Koei Tecmo has let the cat out of the bag in regards to one feature \u2013 the console supports regular USB mice.<\/p>\n

Last week, Koei Tecmo posted a deep dive on its Switch 2 port of strategy game Nobunaga’s Ambition: Awakening Complete Edition, which utilises the Joy-Con controller’s mouse controls.<\/p>\n

During the video, game producer Michi Ryu demonstrated the mouse controls using the Joy-Con, which is used to move the on-screen cursor. However, later in the video, he reveals a USB mouse can be connected to the console and used in the game.<\/p>\n

‘You can also connect a USB mouse and it will work seamlessly,’ Ryu said. ‘Once you connect the USB mouse, a message will appear in the top left indicating that the mouse is connected. When the USB mouse is connected, it takes priority over the Joy-Con 2.’<\/p>\n
