AI Summary

The author, writing for Eurogamer, recounts how they were persuaded earlier in the year that the Nintendo Switch 2’s new mouse input was a worthwhile addition, prompting them to test it as the primary control method in several titles. After enjoying mouse‑based gameplay in games such as Nobunaga’s Ambition: Awakening and Balatro, they immediately applied the same approach to a preview build of Fire Emblem: Fortune’s Weave. The piece notes that, despite the series’ long history of relying on D‑pad directional inputs, the mouse offers a more satisfying way to select units and interact with the game’s grid‑based system.
