Nintendo made a stylus for the Switch

The Switch’s brilliance has always been its versatility, and Nintendo has just added one more way to play in the shape of a £7 stylus. Sure, it’s not the most earth-shatteringly exciting news, but if you’re a big handheld player the little tool could come in handy when you need a bit of extra precision. If there was one mark against the wonderful Super Mario Maker 2, it was that creating levels was a bit easier with the Wii U stylus. Now the Switch has one too, problem solved. The stylus is also a natural fit for the new Dr Kawashima’s Brain Training game, which launched on Switch at the beginning of the year. Pre-order now.

About

I'm fascinated by all things tech, but if you were going to leave me on a desert island, I'd probably ask for my Nintendo Switch, a drone, and a pair of noise-cancelling cans to block out the relentless seagull racket. When I'm not on Stuff duty you'll probably find me subscribing to too many podcasts, playing too many video games, or telling anyone who will listen that Spurs are going to win a trophy this season.
