But the mouse-like functionality may not just be limited to Joy-Cons. The patents also show that Nintendo has explored adding mouse-like functionality to a split controller with a larger, more traditionally sized grip.

This seems to indicate that the optical sensor would be facing downward so that you could hold and move the controller on a surface like a mouse.
