News from Nintendo’s Japanese website has revealed that Super Mario Galaxy + Super Mario Galaxy 2 will have mouse controls supported on Nintendo Switch 2.
At this time, Nintendo hasn’t fully detailed how mouse controls work, aside from that they will be enabled following a free update that will also enable 4K support when playing on Nintendo Switch 2.
It is most likely the case that mouse controls will act in a way that the Wii Remote did, and you will be able to move the cursor around to collect Star Bits, and in Super Mario Galaxy 2, for Yoshi gameplay.
In addition, both games are more than a simple case of running in higher resolution, as textures have been improved among many other changes.
