Nintendo Cardboard/Labo
7 years ago
One thing to remember, out of all the things in life
Okay, so I'm pretty sure that by now, you've seen the Nintendo Labo, if not, here's the video link https://youtu.be/P3Bd3HUMkyU
Now, I'm going to say this upfront, I like the idea, I don't LOVE it per se, but I will consider buying it to try it out.
Now before you call me an idiot for wanting to buy Nintendo Cardboard, I'll explain why I think it's a great idea.
You have to consider the fact that it's a kids toy and it can be used for more than just a "Glorified controller". If you payed attention, you would know that the Labo utilizes the IR sensor on the bottom of the right Joycon, which we haven't seen being utilized other than once in 1 2 Switch. Due to the fact that it's marketed towards kids and some adults, and if you payed attention once again, the Labo can be used to teach how to build the controllers, show how the IR sensor is used, etc. You also need to remember that we thought the Switch would fail upon first seeing it, guess how it is now, so I think we should give the Labo a fair chance before immediately stating that it's just Cardboard.
It also seems like some people forget that Nintendo is also a toy company, and they pulled this type of thing before with Amiibos, the Z Ring toy for Sun and Moon, etc, because they're just plastic toys, but we all find value in those, so why not the Labo?
Bringing the argument that "it's just Cardboard" or "I don't want to play this" is valid only to yourself since it's not your thing, which I get, I'm like this with almost every FPS game, I played it, I didn't like it, but I can see the value in the genre since it's so widespread and people like it a lot.
If you want to give your own argument/opinion about the Labo, comment down below. Though I'm not going to accept "It's just cardboard", "I don't want a glorified controller" or even "I don't want to play this" Or anything similar to that since it undermines the other things it could potentially do and that you have complete control whether you buy it or not.

"Costs 69 dollars.."
You could practically make them from normal cardboard boxes for less than that.
