Nintendo Patent Teases New Controller Accessory

In a possible update, the Joy-Con accessory might incorporate a sensor for mouse-like operations, working harmoniously with the mouse sensors built into the sides of the Switch 2’s controllers. Currently, the Joy-Con 2 controllers can be utilized in mouse mode for certain games, such as Mario Paint on the SNES Nintendo Classics app. Future games like Drag X Drive and Metroid Prime 4: Echoes will also accommodate the Switch 2 Joy-Cons in mouse mode; while using mouse mode is optional in Metroid Prime 4: Echoes, it’s a requirement for Drag X Drive.
