A feedback to add Keyboard and Mouse support for Nintendo Switch

The Nintendo Switch has been around for a very long time, and it has all the ports on the dock to support a keyboard and a mouse. Although the console doesn't support keyboard and mouse natively, the game must implement support on its own like how Overwatch did. If Fortnite didn't do it then I doubt Minecraft can, but I do hope support would be added atleast before the console becomes too weak to handle future updates.

    The console does support both natively already so this is possible for Mojang to implement. You are able to connect a mouse or keyboard to the Switch dock already via USB. You can only use the keyboard to type in text inputs right now. The mouse doesn't do anything but mouse controls could be added to a Switch 2 version of Minecraft through the Joy-Con 2's mouse functionality.

    Yeah it would be so nice specially for those who prefer other kind of controls instead of Nintendo’s ones
