Nintendo doesn’t have much about his upcoming Switch 2 console Since last month with a tease Refrve the trailerLeave and rumors to fill the gaps. However, a few new patents indicate that a rumored function with a Joy-Con controller such as a computer mouse doch could enter the Switch 2.
The two new patents published today have a lot of detailed drawings that show the Switch 2 and its Joy-Cons in a variety of positions. The First patent Explains how a “new input device”-a Joy-Con-Controller-Sale Mouse can be used (as translated by Google Translate from Japanese). It is not the official confirmation that the Switch 2 can use its Joy-Cons such as computer mice, but it shows how much Nintendo has invested in the idea and has very likely included it in the end console.
Some of the drawings of the first patent show the Joy-Con with the inner side down and a hand so that the fingers are curled over the side buttons-and if they orientate them in this way, they will surely look like mouse button. Even if you live with the kind of life from the ultra-clinical language of the patents, the descriptions run out in detail about how light penetrates into a sensor on the inside of the Joy-Con, presumably how a modern optical computer mouse works.
The most fascinating are other drawings that show a single user two joy in a mouse orientation at once, and another drawing that shows a user who operates a Joy-Con-Concon orientation with another in the mouse orientation . While earlier rumors pointed out this functionality that the switch 2 is more suitable for play genres that require a mouse, such as strategy and moba, but the possibility that Nintendo use two Joy-Con mice at the same time from the new (and more unusual) Control entries for which the company is famous, from mini -games in 1-2 switch To the crazy creations in Nintendo hers.
Patent No. 2: Joy-Con magnets and a potential charging cock
The Second patent In detail how the new Joy-Cons use the Switch 2 create a connection and in line with earlier rumors, it is described how magnets keep the controllers connected to the console. Interestingly, the patent indicates that the magnets are in the console and are put on by the keys on the side of the Joy-Con (which are to shoulder buttons when the controller is held with two hands).
The drawings and descriptions describe things like how, when a joy-cons solo is held, one of the bumpers with the wrist slides onto the new controller.
However, the most exciting revelation from this second patent is at the end of the drawings: a charging stand or a dock with which users can charge up to two joy-cons without attaching them to the console. Patent details also indicate that the dock could have a wireless ability to connect to the controllers.
Since Nintendo did not publish any specifications in the introduction of the Switch 2, these patents are the most official source of information about the new console that we have found. Nintendo plans a complete unveiling of the console In a Nintendo Direct on April 2.
