Switching 2 patents apparently confirms the rumors of mouse function

Nintendo did not reveal a lot about her next Switching 2 control unit Since its inconvenience last month with a DetectionLeave leaks and rumors to fill the gaps. But a new pair of patents strongly indicates that the feature of a rumor-by using the Joy-Con controller such as the computer mouse-can come in the switch 2 after all.

The new patent, both of which were published today, contains a set of detailed drawings that show the switch 2 and their joy in a variety of situations. the The first patent It explains how the “new input device”-and the Joy-Con-Kon-County (as is likely to Japanese by Google Translate). Although it is not an explicit official assertion that Switch 2 will allow you to use its joy like computer mice, it shows the amount of Nintendo’s investment in the idea, and it is very likely to include it in the final control unit.

Many of the first patent drawings show that joy with its inner side that it faces below and the hand is placed so that the fingers are prepared on the side buttons-and when they are directed in this way, they definitely appear mouse buttons. From the extreme patent language, it inspects descriptions on how to enter the light into a sensor on the internal side of the Joy-Con, and is supposed to look like how the modern visual computer mouse works.

Perhaps the most interesting is the other graphics that display one user with two joy in the direction of the mouse simultaneously, and another drawing shows a user that manages one naturally with another in the direction of the mouse. Although the previous rumors about this job indicate that it may make Switch 2 more suitable for the types of game that require mouse, such as the strategy and mob , From Minigames in 1-2 switch To Zany’s creations Nintendo Labo.

Patent No. 2: Joy-Com magnet and a possible shipping pavement

the The second patent Details of how the new Joy-Cons connects to the 2- and compatible with the previous rumors, it shows how the magnet keeps the control units connected to the console. Interestingly, the patent indicates that the magnet is located within the control unit and is attracted to the buttons on the Joy-Con side (which becomes the shoulder buttons when the console is held with two hands).

Graphics and descriptions are separated by things like how, when keeping a single joy, one of the wrist equipped with a belt is sliding on the new control unit.

But the most exciting revelation of this second patent is at the end of the drawings: a shipping position or a berth, allowing users to recharge up to two joy without having to be attached to the console. Patent details also indicate that the dock can have the wireless ability to communicate with control units.

Since Nintendo did not issue any specifications information when Switch 2 presented, these patents are the most formal source of information on the new control unit we found. Nintendo plans to get a full disclosure of the console In Nintendo Direct on April 2.
