PSA: The Switch has USB Keyboard support

[VGMoose]

If you plug in a USB keyboard, either via usbc or through the dock USB ports, it Just Works! Makes using the browser a lot easier, and combined with the dock + controller makes for a decent computer-like experience.

Unfortunately a mouse doesn't seem to do anything.

the only thing on switch i've found that can use a mouse is game builder garage

Bumping this thread as well, in case other recent users aren't aware of it.

Pinning this topic, every time I use a USB keyboard on the Switch it works better than expected, and I feel it's still not widely known.

I've always tried to get a mouse/usb drive to work on it. I don't know why...

both keyboard and mouse is supported on switch, just not for every game, the mouse works in the game "game builder garage" I tested that once. I think fortnite has full keyboard and mouse support on switch but idrk, I don't play that game
