Now that one rumored Nintendo Switch 2 Joy-Con feature seems to be confirmed, the console just needs a specific companion peripheral to go with it.

Perhaps more importantly, the video shows the Joy-Con clicking onto a separate piece before going into mouse mode. This other piece looks like it has some small pads on the bottom, like a computer mouse would, to make it a little easier to slide around.

Going against what we saw from some leakers, the Switch 2's Joy-Cons don't seem to feature curved backs like a lot of today's handheld PCs. At least their longer build will make it easier for folks with larger hands to grip them.

Nintendo finally reveals the Switch 2, and the trailer seems to confirm new Joy-Con functionality that many leaks and theories have suggested.

After the Nintendo Switch 2 reveal this morning, those rumors that you might be able to use your Joy-Con as a mouse are looking preeeeeeeeeetty good. During the reveal trailer, there's a moment where a pair of detached Joy-Cons are lowered onto a surface,

At one point during the trailer, two Joy Cons can be seen being pushed by an invisable force along a flat service, their wrist straps out the back like little mouse tails. Meanwhile, there seems to be some kind of attachment that gives the side of the Joy-Con a smooth edge.

You can get one for less right now, thanks to this Amazon deal. Grab a Nintendo Switch with Neon Blue and Neon Red Joy-Con for just $280, marked down from its standard price of $300. While the 7% discount offering $20 in savings might seem modest, any price reduction on Nintendo’s flagship console is noteworthy, as it rarely goes on sale.

Nintendo has finally revealed the Switch 2, its next-gen console due out at some point in 2025. While the reveal video confirms the high-profile leaks, it leaves a number of burning questions unanswered.
