This means that Nintendo Switch 2 players will be able to choose between Joy-Con 2 and a USB peripheral to use muscular controls in at least one support that is supported.

Controls used in console games have been criticized for lacking the precision offered by a mouse for a long time, especially when playing genres as first personal shooters. To deal with this deficiency, Nintendo has incorporated Musk Controls into Joy-Con 2, the removable controls that will be tied with the much-awaited Switch 2. It is one of the most important highlights in the Japanese gaming giant's next gene system and allows players to use one of the two Joy-Cons for Mimic Mouse-Ins. Although this special functionality is now set to be available outside the box with Switch 2, it turns out that the console manufacturer has still gone ahead and given players the opportunity to use an external USB mouse if they want, at least for a launch title.
