Nintendo LABO


Generations

Recommended Posts

I might appreciate the concept, if it was something you could buy for $5 or 10...or even pop out of the cardboard from the box that a Switch console comes in...but the price tag is ludicrous. I also feel like we haven't properly seen how these devices work (or if they properly work).

Except you're not just paying for cardboard. You're paying for the game/s + the entire set which includes the cardboard, markers, and whatnot.

 

Doesn't change much.

 

From the looks of things, these are more like simple apps than full games. A piano, a fishing pole...a carboard house that lets you move doll furniture around (or something like that)...those don't look like a full-price video game to me.

 

Again, it seems like a charming idea that took a turn for the worse. It could have been something cute for kids in households that don't have a lot of money...using limited resources and a cheap app to experience a hands-on gameplay scenario. But it feels like overpriced trash instead, tbh. Again...I appreciate what the concept represents...but not the blatant up-charge on what should be considerably cheaper. Whole thing should cost $35 tops. It's a cheap app and some cardboard. It doubles in price because it has the Nintendo logo on it...and I can't get behind that.

Hmm, I'm gonna have to see more before I judge it. Does seem weird though. I mean like, does the piano work? I feel dumb for wondering if it works or if it was just for the video

 

 

 

Nintendo is out of their damn minds...charging $80 for cardboard. :lol:

 

Never tried getting into trading card collecting?

I imagine Mario's rookie card would be worth a fortune right about now. This seems whack though, what if you get water on that thing by accident?

People keep their cards in plastic sleeves

I was referring to that cardboard thing by Nintendo. What if you're playing the "piano" and someone spills a drink on it and that shit shrinks down like literally a wet cardboard box? Maybe I should watch the whole video to find out what it's all about but at first sight it looks very questionable.

The trading card comparison is absurd for obvious reasons.

 

Also, true story...apparently, the German board for rating games (their version of the ESRB, I guess) almost threw the LABO away. - They didn't know what it was. It was literally in a pile with other trash, and then they were like "wait a minute...this something we're supposed to rate". I don't care where you stand on your personal opinion of this concept...that shit is hilarious. :lol:
