Goodbye Switch, Hello Switch 2!

Nintendo doesn't release their own titles on PC or really worry about competing against it like other console makers might because they have PC divisions in the company, so Nintendo just allowing keyboard and mouse connectivity is an interesting idea. I don't know what they really gain from it, but it's not like they lose anything either. A docked Switch being a living room PC is intriguing at the very least.

Maybe there'll be a new Mario Paint?

USB mice? On Switch 2? That's . . . interesting. Wonder if keyboards will follow suit?

Yup:

Nintendo Switch 2 confirmed to support USB mice — it fixes my biggest issue with the console after playing it

Of course, it also throws up plenty of new questions.

Will all USB-C mice work with the system or just a select few?

What about wireless mice?

Which games are supported?

Will we also be able to use a USB keyboard with the Switch 2?

Maybe there'll be a new Mario Paint?

The nostalgia of that alone would convince me to pick up a Switch 2 even if the only other games it ever received were text adventures entirely in Russian.
