@darkfenrir Looks like they've managed to repackage and sell Mario Kart 8 again!
It doesn't look very sturdy. Seems like the moving parts will wear out rather quickly. Especially the fishing rod and the house. I wonder how expensive replacements are going to be?
Well by that time you should be able to use the given cardboard sheets and use it to make them again with your own cardboard/plastic/3d printer/whatever I guess?
Also, Nintendo won't say who is making the Labo software. There's a rumour that Retro Studios could be working on it, I hope that's not what they've been doing all this time.
My Top 9 Favorite Games of All time.
1. Judgement
2. Baldur's Gate 3
3. Bully (Rockstar)
4. Person 4 / Golden
5. Sonic Adventure 2
6. Xenoblade X
7. Ape Escape 2
8. Animal Crossing: New Leaf
9. James Bond 007 Nightfire
The "won't last long" argument holds less water than the cardboard you get with this game when people realise they can use the stencils the game comes with to draw up more cardboard parts, and the more hardware avid can try their hands at balsa wood, while the tech savvy make replacements with 3D printing
he most basic creation is the Toy-Con RC Car (which is actually a remote-controlled bug-like creature not entirely dissimilar in concept to the Hexbug Nano range of toys) and this takes around 10 minutes to make and uses the HD Rumble of two Joy-Con to move around the room; you control the action with the Switch touchscreen and you can even view the world through the right-hand Joy-Con's IR camera, sending the bug on secret missions inside unexplored nooks and crannies
GameXplain posted an hour long hands-on discussion and the whole Labo thing just keeps getting more interesting. I was already going to buy the variety kit but the robot sounds awesome as well.
They answered a lot of questions like the durability, how seamlessly the Toy-Cons work, how long it took to build some of them, little bit about the Garage (how you do stuff like combine the motorbike and RC car functions and move the car with the motorbike Toy-Con), how the robot suit can be used by both children and adults (the rep also told them to punch as hard as they want to, so that should tell something about the durability). All kinds of things. I highly recommend watching the video.
It's its, not it's.

@Octane We don't know that. Now Nintendo has millions of Switch's being sold all around the world, they have got us building structures out of cardboard. Sure they may all seem like toys, but that robot is just their way of getting the fan base eased into the idea of mass producing an army for world domination

@SLIGEACH_EIRE other people shared info about the camera having night vision, and I even saw pictures of the night vision display the same day Labo was announced.
@Meowpheel I must have missed that because I was looking around for information as that was the standout quote from that NL article and the Switch doesn't have a traditional camera so I'd been wondering how it was viewed. It was obviously news to other sites as well. I still haven't seen images, I'll look again.
Edit: The only images I can find are from when people got hands on with it yesterday at the New York press event. Nintendo didn't show it before that in their trailers and I've found no prior mention or images. And we all know how Nintendo are about controlling what media gets out in the public until they say so.
Edit: I found mention on one site about night vision back on the 18th January(The Telegraph), but no way would Nintendo let unofficial images be taken. That information about night vision wasn't common knowledge and there's no mention of heat vision.
