Good that you can connect an actual PC Mouse via USB. Minecraft and Shooters are gonna feel different in Switch now.
That was my main point of optimism as well. I couldn’t care less about the Joycon mouse support, but if they supported the Joycons as mice, it would mean that the system needed native mouse support and would likely work with other mice.
Per my own testing with a Logitech M650, I don’t think you can connect a mouse to the Switch 2.
Try a wired mouse, it wouldn’t surprise me if a lot of wireless mice might not work. I’ve seen articles that wired mice work.
Are you sure? I tried, expected a mouse pointer to appear on screen, but it didn’t. I used the same adapter I use to connect my mouse to my Android phone.
Edit: Just tried again, both top and bottom ports, the USB-C to A adapter plus bluetooth mouse dongle work fine in my phone, but not in the Switch. This is using a Logitech M650. I don’t think it can do it guys.
I haven’t tried connecting by bluetooth directly but I doubt that will work either. Using the Joycon as a mouse is pretty limited also - I can quite happily run my M650 over my belly and at any angle to control things, but the Joycon doesn’t convert to a mouse unless it is horizontal. The find controllers page also doesn’t really imply a mouse can be connected, just that you can use a Joycon in mouse mode.
It works. I tested it with a Logitech G305 dongle. For some stupid reason it doesn’t work in the home menu, only the joy con does. But in games that support mouse control it works. I tried it in Hogwarts Legacy
The mouse support works in games that support it, but won’t work for system UI stuff.
