It'll definitely be interesting, but I imagine people will just end up pairing an actual mouse to it if the games all have mouse support.

[fmt99@lemmy.world]

Any word yet on what the joystick tech will be? Mouse operation is all very interesting but drift is my main concern for the new joycons.

[idealotus@lemmy.world]

I haven't seen anything official, but rumors are suggesting Hall Effect joysticks.

“And if you turn it sideways it works like a mouse”

“Okay”

Why are we talking about this more than that?

Mario Paint 2!

Every time Nintendo adds a weird gimmick to a new system, I say, "no one will use that," and every time, I am wrong.

Any word on the screen? Would be sad if it wasn't OLED but it wouldn't surprise me if they wanted to cut cost for the base model.

[gravitas_deficiency@sh.itjust.works]

I mean the latest version of the Switch 1 went OLED. It’d be weird if v2 downgraded from that.

The NES had an expansion port on the bottom.

The SNES also had an expansion port.

The virtual boy......existed.

The N64 had an expansion port, a ram upgrade, and a controller memory pack.

The gamecube had an expansion port, and a handle.

The Wiimote has a speaker inside, that only 1 game ever used (that I played).

The WiiU had the WiiU gamepad.

The Switch had the IR sensor, and HD rumble.

Don't you do this to me......don't give me hope.

Dual mouse mode sounds interesting…

[lost_my_mind@lemmy.world]

It's actually just leftover 3DS screens.

[lost_my_mind@lemmy.world]

Because they haven't confirmed cat support yet!

[melodiousfunk@slrpnk.net]

Just imagine the possumbilities!

[feathercrown@lemmy.world]

Crusty wiimote sounds are a staple

[llii@discuss.tchncs.de]

Stereoscopic 3D would be awesome. I loved it on the 3DS.

[melodiousfunk@slrpnk.net]

The gamecube had an expansion port

Three ports, actually. One for network, one for the GBA player, and one that wasn't used as far as I can recall.

and a handle.

Not totally useless!

[mrscottytay@sh.itjust.works]

You must've only played 1 wii game because pretty much every game used that speaker

[mrscottytay@sh.itjust.works]

V2 switch was LCD just like V1 with no physically obvious changes. Only the OLED model was OLED
