Mario Paint is now in Switch Online, and works with a USB mouse too

During the marketing for the Switch 2, one of the most talked about aspects was the potential that the new Joy-Con 2s could be used as mice. Post-launch, there’s been almost no reason to bother. It hasn’t featured as a necessary control option in either of Nintendo ’s first-party exclusives, relegated to the belated release of next month’s Drag x Drive.

But now, in a surprise move, Nintendo has added Mario Paint to the Switch Online subscription collection. And, yes, it’s been designed to work with the Joy-Con 2 as a mouse. Alongside this, the product’s soundtrack has been added to the Nintendo Music app. And the retro-mouse antics don’t stop there. As Nintendo Everything spotted Nintendo has also just added mouse support to Mario Super Picross and Genesis strategy game Nobunaga’s Ambition.
