I can absolutely see it happen.

Sure, that's a valid point. But in this case there can be actual mice for the Switch 2 because the games Will support mouse mode.

First, if they already have a PC port your point is moot. They would still need to make a controller version for the Xbox and PS5, but the switch can use both.

Secondly, some games are simply not released on consoles because it simply doesn't translate well without a mouse, like RTS games, for example.

But that's an alternative, and the games obviously aren't made with that in mind.

This is an integral part of the system and obviously games would specifically work with it.

It's a small game changer (IMO).

With the official reveal of the mouse mode for the Switch 2's controllers there is the potential for so many classic games to flood the console.

Imagine what it could do with graphical adventure games, RTS games, management sims, etc.

We already know CIV VII will use the mouse, and I just hope this is just the beginning for a whole range of traditionally non-console games to finally make it to the platform.

Truly out of 1984.

Wait... What?

Sure, the first example is understandable.

The second!? WTF!?

Well, I had enough of this bullshit, and together with news that Reddit's CEO was pressured by Musk of all people to curb dissent, I just deleted my accounts.

Bye Reddit.

I'm 100% a Lemmee guy now

Holy shit, me too.

They said I threatened violence because in a thread about Putin potentially being sick, I said I wished he had a painful slow death.

Apparently even bloodthirsty dictators get to have their poor feelings protected by Reddit.

Fuck Reddit! I'm just gonna abandon that shit platform
