I’ve never been a fan of laptop keyboards. It’s better to feel the tactile feedback of a full-sized keyboard with keys that press down as your type—at least that’s my preference anyway. If you primarily use a laptop but are looking to have some extra options, listen here. Perhaps you want to build out a desk space where you hook up to a docking station to some extra monitors and more to really spread out your work. Well you can get this mouse and keyboard set from Logitech for hardly anything. T

The last time Nintendo truly broke ground in the first-person shooter (FPS) genre was with GoldenEye 007 on the Nintendo 64 -- and that was in 1997. Since then, other consoles took the lead with better controllers for shooters, with Nintendo's trailing. Now, the reveal of the Switch 2's Joy-Cons are giving the publisher a real chance to compete in the shooter market once again. Nintendo hasn't strayed from porting major FPS games to the Switch. Classic games Doom and Quake are available alongsi

One of the most interesting rumors about the Nintendo Switch 2's Joy-Cons was that you could use them like computer mice. Now that the feature has been confirmed in the April 2 Nintendo Direct, and we've seen it used for action and strategy games, it's pretty clear: The most-needed accessory for the new Switch 2 is a lap desk.

Perhaps the most noticeable difference between the original Nintendo Switch and the Switch 2 — besides the more expensive price — is the new Joy-Con controller and its come-out-of-nowhere mouse functionality. I got the chance to demo them at a hands-on event, and damn are my shoulders and wrists sore. There were several games at the event that showed off the new mouse functionality, and I tried a couple of them, specifically Drag x Drive (pronounced drag and drive) and Metroid Prime 4: Beyond.

Back in the early days of USB, Microsoft mouse devices often came with a USB plug at the end of the cable, but also came with a small green adapter to convert the USB type-A plug into a PS/2 plug. How did this adapter work? USB and PS/2 are completely different protocols that are not compatible in any way. The adapter was purely mechanical (passive). It connected one set of pins to another, but it contained no circuitry. All of the smarts was in the mouse. The mouse detected whether it receive
