Civilization 7 and Mario Party Jamboree are fine, but it was Metroid Prime 4: Beyond that convinced me on Switch 2 mouse controls

Perhaps the most noticeable difference between the original Nintendo Switch and the Switch 2 — besides the more expensive price — is the new Joy-Con controller and its come-out-of-nowhere mouse functionality. I got the chance to demo them at a hands-on event, and damn are my shoulders and wrists sore.

Mouse controls are one of the Switch 2's big new features. Optical sensors allow the upgraded Joy-Con controllers to aim and navigate on the console as if you were playing on a PC. But the Switch 2 is also a portable console.
