The Nintendo Switch 2 is more of an upgrade than a bold move forward. Everything that was on the original Switch has been improved, from the screen to the processor to the JoyCons, which now magnetically attach with a satisfying thunk (see our Switch 2 unboxing). But there’s little that’s really new – except for the mouse controls.
By turning the JoyCons on their side and placing them on a surface, they instantly become mice. It feels like magic when you first try it, reminiscent of the Switch’s original magic trick of suddenly appearing on your TV when you slot it neatly into its dock. But how well do the Switch 2 mouse controls work?
