Thanks to the recent Nintendo Direct, details about theNintendoSwitch 2have been coming at full speed.
The reason it’s here to begin with?
Former Nintendo CEO Satoru Iwata.
Popular roguelike games likeBalatro,Slay the Spire, andDarkest Dungeonhave full support for touchscreen compatibility.
In the case of these games,touchscreen compatibility can fulfill a myriad of uses.
Touchscreen can offer a reprieve in such situations by still allowing for a selection of games to be played.
The same argument can be made for developers as well.
As mentioned,touchscreens were used quite heavily on older Nintendo systems.
As a result, many games on Nintendo software chose to utilize the feature.

Other use cases can be game-changes as well.
For games not originally designed for the Switch,the mouse functionality may offer a better user experience.
