Re: Site News: So, Where's Our Nintendo Labo Review?

@Yorumi See my review above, Pull my Finger. Im in my 30's, big Nintendo fan. I was looking for a true "core" gaming experience and Robot Labo is it. And, you get a pretty damn good workout. Burned 300 calories each session (and the game shows you the calories!)

Bought the Robot Labo. It's great. And the game is very deep. Many different levels and worlds to explore. Clever moments where you will need to use flying, kicking, even turn down the visor to see invisible items. Think in terms of leveling up and getting high scores to truly enjoy this game.

Nintendo made this cool video that shows the deepness of the game, the many levels, the new moves and power ups. Also, if you get two persons with robot kits, you can fight each other ROCKEM' SOCKEM'' ROBOT style (if they can make this online, WOW).

@Tetsuro oh please stop being so ignorant. I said Xenoblade. Which is all encompassing for the great series, the first with a metascore of 92, the others scoring many top 10's and a high average.

I challenge you to find 5 rpgs (and we are talking pure RPG, not action based game you would like to imagine is an RPG) that scored in the 90's. Bet you can't do it!

80's score is considering GREAT by many many publications. But not in the ignorant mind of Tetsuro. smh.

@JaxonH Well said. Wish this video above was as clear. GameExplain better. GameSpot had the best video to explain combat so far.

Agree with the rest of the game. Amazing. Wonderful. Love it. Though that map/navigation. Oy.

Also, can you detail this a little more? I have problem grasping this:

:There is also a combo of arts you can do by using arts with these effects in this order... BREAK > TOPPLE > LAUNCH > SMASH:

What is BREAK? TOPPLE? Please explain like Im a toddler

@roadrunner343 spot on. The Gamespot battle video for X2 so much more clearer. Though I was hoping for more from this site, as it taught me how to do great jumps in Mario Odyssey.

This video is simply a mess, where Alex assumes we know certain things. Do it again. Be slow, concise. Explain an art. Explain the timing of art in very specific detail in order to power up. Explain choosing character to battle. Explain focusing on a certain character using d-pad. So many things left out. It's chaotic, choppy, not very well planned out. But never stop saying "Helllllooo lovely people!"

Alex love you and your videos. And was excited to see this. But, honestly, it's still too chaotic and confusing. You should do this slower, beat by beat, explaining everything to use in battle, the arts, the timing of hitting the arts button to get a blue ring upgrade (specifically WHEN to hit this), better understanding of specials, etc. Your video, well-intended, was too "stop and go" and choppy. You were onto a thought then that thought got bogged down by mistakes in your verbiage, distracted by dying, etc. I would say you should do a take 2 on this.
