Nintendo Switch 2 Supports USB Input Koei Tecmo Confirms in Gameplay Video
Drop any thought of waggle controls: precision is the forte of Nintendo Switch 2! Apart from benefiting from graphics, the leaked gameplay footage ofNobunaga’s Ambition: Awakening Complete Editionis a subtle yet massive confirmation of USB mouse support. Along with the expected mouse-capable improved Joy-Cons, it seems Nintendo is giving in to the control schemes reminiscent of a PC. Clink away to glory!
Switch 2 Gets USB Mouse Support
Oh, imagining wielding the grand prep of strategy gaming! In a tantalizing 17-minute gameplay reveal for the incoming grand strategy title on the Switch 2, Game Director Michi Ryu reveals an utterly crazy control scheme. Prepare to be dazzled with his dual Joy-Con mastery interspersed with supreme mouse maneuvers. One tap on the SL button of the Joy-Con, and the screen says control redefined! Each click on the battlefield now responds to Ryu. Change your mind? A quick press on SL or SR handles the return to controller command. Is this the beginning of hybrid gaming?
Ryu gave a demonstration of the Joy-Con 2 transformation: “Behold! A mouse cursor is spawned from afar, furnishing you with familiar standard mouse dexterity.” He performed an action like scrolling. “Left-click, right-click, the wheel, it is a perfect match for the Steam edition.”
The real kicker of these series of events is when Ryu connects a USB mouse to the Switch 2. A nice little notification pops up at the corner of the screen-the revolution has begun! Ryu says, “The moment you connect a USB mouse, it takes command.” With a USB mouse, you can completely forget the annoying touchscreen or cumbersome controllers-the mouse is your precision tool. Crazy enough, the Joy-Con can still be held in the other hand, leading to wacky, lovely, and potentially game-breaking hybrid control schemes.
Mark your calendars, strategists! With the launch of the Switch 2 on June 5, time is upon the hefty hands to wade into the feudal Japan setting withNobunaga’s Ambition: Awakening Complete Edition. Not just a simple launch title, here lie now the post-launch DLCs of every bit filled with scheming and back-stabbing for the ultimate Sengoku-era conquest. And PlayStation owners, do not fear!Nobunaga’s Ambition: Awakening Complete Editionwill also be storming the PS5. Let the race for supremacy begin yet once again!

For a Nintendo console, the Switch 2 could offer some serious accessibility and interactive-gameplay potential. The texts and leaks went on to say that the unit will feature text-to-speech and live captioning through GameChat, which will provide fairness to gamers of all abilities. And here’s the real kicker: unconfirmed rumors of native USB keyboard support might actually mean deeper communication options. While USB mice and keyboards saw some usage on the original Switch, the Switch 2 is set to raise the level higher. Mouse input will be at the native level in the new Joy-Cons, along with better PC-style input on the go, as relayed by sources.
