PC Lovers Will Worship One Feature Nintendo Added in Switch 2

Nintendo has always been the quirky cousin at gaming family gatherings—adored but never quite speaking the same language as PC enthusiasts. The Nintendo Switch 2 might finally change that dynamic in ways nobody expected.

While everyone’s been obsessing over specs and pricing controversies, Nintendo quietly included something that’ll make even the most devoted PC Master Race members do a double-take. It’s not about raw power or flashy graphics.

Sometimes the most revolutionary features hide in plain sight, waiting for the right moment to blow everyone’s minds.

The feature that bridges two worlds

Here’s what’s got a major part of the gaming population actually paying attention: the Nintendo Switch 2 supports full plug-and-play USB mouse functionality. Not some half-baked implementation—we’re talking genuine, seamless mouse support that works exactly like you’d expect.

Producer Michi Ryu from Koei Tecmo demonstrated this during a showcase of Nobunaga’s Ambition: Awakening CE, casually plugging in a standard wired mouse and switching control methods instantly.

He explained:

In addition to the mouse operation with the Joy-**** 2, you can also connect a USB mouse, and it will work seamlessly. 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-**** 2.

The original Switch technically supported keyboards and mice, but only a literal handful of games bothered implementing it. Nintendo‘s Game Builder Garage was basically the poster child for this forgotten feature.

Switch 2 changes everything by making mouse support a core system feature rather than an afterthought. The Joy-**** 2 controllers include built-in mouse functionality, meaning developers can actually rely on this being available.

As you can see, you can switch instantly. It’s very smooth. You can operate with both the controller and the mouse interchangeably. The switching speed is incredibly fast.

This is more than just “convenience”—it’s about opening doors to entire game genres that previously felt awkward on consoles. Strategy games, simulation titles, and precision-demanding experiences suddenly become viable on Nintendo hardware.

That simple comment captures the broader sentiment perfectly. When PC gamers start using words like “huge” about Switch 2 features, something significant is happening.

The portability factor, combined with proper mouse support, creates a compelling proposition that even gaming laptops struggle to match. Being able to play Civilization VII with full mouse controls on a plane or in bed? That’s genuinely appealing for many:

Mods have always been the trump card keeping strategy games tied to PC platforms. But when portability meets proper controls, that equation starts shifting.

Of course, mouse support in competitive games raises balance concerns that the devs will need to address carefully:

Whether Nintendo embraces this potential or keeps mouse support limited to specific genres remains the million-dollar question. But for now, PC gamers have one less reason to dismiss the Switch 2 entirely.

What’s your take? Could this finally bridge the platform divide? Share your thoughts below, and let’s see if Nintendo can convert some PC Master Race loyalists.
