1.23 We love you man
anton van Beek why are you so stupid
I have plenty of amazon boxes laying around, theres my labo
DrViperVideos need game software
Haha
Uhh good luck getting the software
I wonder how many kids are going to get over excited and break them.
I would
Project Gamer way too many lol
You mean grown ass men
Or the parents will.
When she was about 7, my daughter got a Barbie horse for Christmas. After 5 minutes of playing, *I kneeled on it!* -- One leg still twitched when I got up.
And then exactly this color combination was no longer available.
She's 26 now and still hates me for that.
ozdergecko Dohhhh, sorry to hear that. But really? Figured you'd finally get some slack cut! Lol
As a father of 3, thank you for mentioning the durability! My oldest is almost 5 and I wanted to build this with her, but if the parts are that easy to break looks like I may have to wait a few years. That, or reverse engineer the parts and make them out of wood/plastic!
Spacecow1002 it depends how hard they are on it. my 5 1/2 year old son does awkwardly reel the fishing rod and he did pull the handle off but it pops right back on so no biggie there. as long as your kid can understand that no you don't stand on the piano to play it or the fishing rod isn't a sword I say get it as it will be fun learning and helping teach ur kid. which can't be put into dollar value. iv built the piano n fishing rod so far I'm Gunn a let my kid make the bike.ppl say "oh the cardboard will break" but cardboard doesn't break. it bends n tears. but this cardboard for being thin is actually pretty tough. its like thick cardboard that I imagine is pressed down in the stamping process. the perforated lines are where to fold. do even a child that sorta bends the fold, and than bends a little other part of the piece won't actually ruin the project. the only one that wouldn't work right if it was bent wrong is the rc car. but everything else even if bent in the wrong place, or the wrong way will still allow the project to be fine and be fully functional. I'd say go it.
DDub 64 Thanks for your input! Yeah I'm not so much worried about my 5 year old breaking it as so much the other younger siblings (3 and 1). I was thinking that maybe I could make it something to do while the other two nap. It would also be something that only comes out during supervised play sessions anyway. From the sound of it, even if you break it you can always do a quick patch job on it.
Spacecow1002 Nintendo brought the pdf files for the cardboard thingy's online, so if something breaks you can print it again
You could even print it in other materials if you are good with printing
Nintendo offers all cardboard templates as a free download on their page... so you could print those on cardboard yourself :)
Ok, speaking out of experience here. My daughter got the variety kit just yesterday, therefore I got the kit also. When getting this you got to keep in mind that you're also getting the software, which I place in a price range of about $40 (USD). That leaves you with a pack of $20 cardboard sheets. Sounds expensive, but when you consider that: a) the sheets are made of quality cardboard, b) the pieces are well cut from the sheets and c) as you build any of the "projects" you can't help to notice how well planned and engineered everything is, it's worth the price. Considering how other companies release broken or incomplete AAA games that are priced starting at $59.99 + deluxe upgrade, DLC and loot boxes, I got to applaud Nintendo for this. And yes they're are a bunch of mini games but they are super fun!
Rafael yeah, keep lying to yourself.
SHIN BAKI HANMA keep lying to yourself while playing Destiny
Masterod The lord of gaming and dinosaurs See how dumb you are?! I don't even play or like Destiny. I don't even like MMOs.
SHIN BAKI HANMA How is it that you come on to someone else's comment to tell them they are lying about the experience they get from a product they bought? Have you tried it yourself?
PolarBearBlue PolarBearBlue Yes, I actually tried it. I live in NYC, and went to Nintendo store, and they are all about Labo at the moment, they had a launch event the other day and give visitors a chance to try it out. It is the most pathetic thing I've ever seen. If you have any kind of worthwhile braincell, it is the most uninteresting thing you'll do. I tried the fishing, the robot, the motorcycle minigame, etc. None of these games kept my attention for more than a couple of minutes. The only thing that can remotely stimulate you about Labo is putting the crap cardboard pieces together. Anything other than that is shit. So, anyone who isn't a kid is outright lying if they say they are having fun with labo. You have to be an outright idiot to enjoy labo. I saw kids who got "board" (get it?) with it. Though I will admit, some aspects of labo are "cute".
This looks cool for kids but I’m not paying that much for cardboard lol. You gotta love Nintendo for trying something different I guess.
If it was plastic, maybe since most of these are mini games.
$60 dollar game $10 cardboard
Brilliant business model if you ask me.
Realesed on 4/20 for 69.99
damn, true
people were high when they bought this
Holly shit
I'll just stick with God of War for now
TheLegacy 91 labo is better.
My two boys absolutely LOVED this. We had a great time putting the variety pack items together and the piano is quite impressive.
It's definitely designed for families, but it's worth it if you have a Switch and younger kids.
my kids might build with me for 5 minutes before they are off doing something else completely lol
and back to the ipad/TV.
Teen Titans here. In their defense they don't understand the blasphemy they are committing. Quite frankly I don't have the heart to tell them. Ignorance is bliss.
the og one or go.
Unfortunately the latter.
You're not buying cardboard, Jake. Your buying MEMORIES!!!
S O N Y O U A L R E A D Y S P E N T 1 0 K O N U R S W I T C H, Y O U D O N T N E E D M O R E M E M O R Y S G O O U T S I D E
You're
True.
You can buy replacement kits and there are free downloadable PDF blueprints to make more of the kits.
I've only built the piano one so far and it's honestly amazing how well it works and how in-depth the software really is. even with just the piano, Id say that I've spent around 8hrs in total building and playing it and I still haven't gotten tired of it!
Anything that stimulates people to be more creative is okay in my book, and the price is no more than a decent sized Lego set. I think it's completely worth it just for the experience alone, and the piano itself is pretty awesome. I hope Nintendo continues doing things like this.
Lefty Jones thank you as someone who loves lego and Nintendo this is awesome
Lefty Jones
Lefty Jones or I'm just gonna throw this out there. Play on a real piano or go REAL fishing.
Rusty Jr Well, you're looking at a couple hundred bucks minimum for that. This is a simple, creative game. I think it's worth the price
Rusty Jr
They're toys for small kids that like building small things, not a full blown hobby...
why does jake always look like he just woke up.
Actually, considering purpose and usage, cardboard is the best pick. Plastic is less customizable, less easier to repair or replace (more expensive). Plastic is heavier as well. Cardboard teaches kids how of a simple fold they can make stuff, letting them have better understanding of structure and shapes. There is a reason child classes have a lot of cardboard in arts and class.
combine it with easy to learn programming and thus the easy self to make products of cradboard, it's really good for it's purpose.
Crystalitar I agree.
depends on the quality of the cardboard.
There should be a co-op between Lego and some mobile consul device. Endless possibilities...
moismyname *console
Like the hungover style you're rocking today
Mm... Hopefully we can do this with cheap cardboard since Nintendo said they'll offer free templates online. This is honestly a great concept, but durability is an issue.
But you won’t have the software to use it.
Sandviper5339 Official
I never said I wouldn't buy the software. I just hope the templates are free online. If they are then replacing ripped creations is easy.
My kids and I have made the car, the motorcycle, and most of the piano, and we all had soooo much fun. Also, the software tells you to plug into a wall charger while building.
As someone who bought the variety kit, i can assure you that the LABO is incredibly fun. They are very fun to build and then you get hours of fun playing with it. So far i probably like the fishing rod and motorcycle the most.
I really don't get why they don't release a 20-30 dollar, software only version, considering they're just putting out the cardboard PDFs online. That'd probably be way easier for a lot of parents, especially since kids'll be building and playing with these.
Maybe because people worked hard to research and develop all the projects and associated mechanisms. When you buy anything you aren't just buying the physical object but all the time spent into developing it. Same story here. Selling these for 20-30 dollars would more than likely not justify all the time spent into this project.
Guransh Nanda and the cardboard isn’t trash.
Some of those pieces are very complex or too big to be printed on a regular printer.
$70 isn't THAT much. There are plenty of Lego sets twice that much. $70 is pretty expensive for basically just cardboard and basic minigames though.
You can Buy mario party for cheaper amd better games lol
TheBrickBaron it’s like 10-40$ on cardboard though
The difference is that Legos don't die if they get wet or break as easy as butter.
Legos sets are sturdier and they're made of plastic, so they're not going to erode anytime this century.
You have the garage where you can 'program' anything you want...
Im 17 and I freaking love nintendo labo !
It's super fun to see how it works and after Taking 2 hours building the piano I can say for sure it is satisfing to see all of this working.
On the down side, the instructions tend to get very repetitive, but you can fast foward so it's ok.
:)
This is why I love Nintendo. Always innovating, trying new stuff, releasing it
You know... I think the reason why it's so expensive to buy cardboard of all things is because once you buy it Nintendo says that they will replace any cardboard that breaks for free. So I imagine that the cost of sending out free replacement cardboard, even though cheap, would drag a company down if they weren't compensated somehow.
That's just the way I think their reasoning is here on the subject of Labo. (Shrug)
+Brett Wortham I thought they *sold* replacement parts on their website. I know that you can download templates so that you can make them yourself if your that good, though.
nah i don't think they're sending out actual cardboard replacements, they just made the plans readily available for you to replace them yourselves for free
It be cool if these Labo things become popular enough to a point that these are mass produced enough to become cheaper to buy, if that happens then I would definitely get this as gifts for friends that have the switch.
Nintendo never drops their prices.
Nintendo Overship a Product?
Haaaaaaaa
Do you really think Nintendo would drop the prices because they mass produce it? Have you not learned anything about Nintendo in the last year? Creating fake shortages of all their more recent products to push people into buying their "exclusivity", allowing resellers to sell their stuff for inflated
The Labo entirety is a gimmick and much of a rip off, this could easily be a schema you download and build on your own. Because, you know, printing a paper and buying a cardboard is much, much more cheaper than $80.
I want labo and the switch to do well (and it will) that way anyone that got behind it and supported or even got shares for Nintendo can laugh all day at all the nay-sayers that seemed to have showed up to crap all over this and will probably go buy it when they realise what they are missing.
Anonssr really? Cos when I saw them release a new version of a handheld the old ones were cheaper either on amazon or second hand.. lovely bashing though, well done you!
I love the before you buy series keep em up
I’m not the target market for the Labo but years down the line when I have children, this is exactly the sort of activity my husband and I would love to share with our kids. I really hope it does well because honestly it is a marvel that such a wholesome and intuitive game like the Labo even came to fruition. Hats off to Nintendo for trying something new, I hope they can take on board all of the criticism for future instalments and keep building on the product. As far as I can tell, they’ve only scratched the surface of its potential.
I really wish this came out when I was a kid. I would've spent hours playing with this. Building and seeing how it worked.
AwesomeEpicNinja no you wouldn't have, liar.
SHIN BAKI HANMA Why are you being a contrarian? What purpose does it serve?
AwesomeEpicNinja you're right, I'm sorry. I should just jump on the bandwagon like everyone else.😯🙁😟
heh im still a kid
Jake's opinion corner has REALLY taken off
loool
Thank you so much for making a review for Parents with kids in mind. I was thinking of getting it for my little girl but now that mentioned that some of the projects are quite time consuming, I'm sure she'd hate it. Lol.
Thank you for this video. I'm honestly interested in this (I love building things), but I don't have much money. I really want the variety kit, and after this video i might go get it.
If I had a Switch, I'd definitely buy it for the (well known) child in me. My 26yr old daughter is a lot older than me ;-)
I already broke this just by looking at it.
I think you’re wrong
i think your're all wrong for the wrong reasons :)
Wrong.
It's actually very robust.
Not enough to kick them but still...
My opinion has no value but uh maybe not.
Built the house with my 4 year old daughter and we had a blast. She has been asking all week to build the fishing pole while playing with the house. Even though it's just cardboard I still think it was worth the money. Its fun to build. Simple but still enjoyable for both my daughter and I.
All my childhood memories of rainy days involves building or taking something apart. Nintendo hits right in the spot with this, delivering a great product that can bring families together at the living room.
Nintendo: how can we make more money?
Guy 1: let's sell cardboard!
Nintendo: you get a promotion
Let's sell cheap cardboard to young children.
lol
nah lets make the kid make the product that way we can stack a whole bunch togather and makes us more money.
GAMER: Nintendo, where are all the 3rd party games you promised us the switch was gonna support, ur console came out 2017 and it cant even play standard 3rd party games like FF15 or Farcry for example.
NINTENDO: games? what games. we have LABO!!! and it’s….. PORTABLE!!!!
FANBOIS: its Portable! omfg Nintendo you’re the best, I LOVE YOU!!!! risovach.ru/upload/2014/11/generator/lol_67251671_orig_.jpg
" with editing softwares, programming codes simplified enough that children can understand and that can translate into real life. Programming is a job of the future, if you can get kids interested at a young age, there's no telling what they can do twenty years from now. If I had kid, buying that would be a no brainer.
I got an Unbox Therapy video as an ad before this video...
he sucks, who cares
The only big thing you missed mentioning is the educational discover section. You mentioned how they explain washers and the like while you build, but there is a whole section of the game that teaches more complicated features such as what infrared light is and how those sensors work, gyroscopes, and accelerometers. Some very good educational stuff! As an adult, I even learned a few things, like the fact that you can see infrared lights with some digital cameras!
I’m in love with my Labo, it’s so much to play with. Yes, it’s designed for kids, but adults can deffo also play with it.
Probably won't buy it, but thanks for the video anyway
70$ for cardboard?
Move over EA, there's a new sheriff in town
Watch the video
Nintendo has always been worse than EA. Selling the same games since the 80's, amiibos, overpriced dlc, defunctional consoles, mobile apps kikery,etc. Nintendo deserves to die more than EA.
As Expected of Pieck same games? Dysfunctional systems? Overpriced dlc? Mobile games which have in app purchases which you don't really need when fifa makes you basically pay to get good characters? I disagree with what you said except for amiibos. Amiibos can die.
As Pooped By Anakin Skywalker
Do you even know what you can do? What's included in the box?
EA and Konami nuff said.
i'm only in it for toy con garage
the visual programming aspect is pretty damn deep, the only thing lacking is really in depth asset imports, it's like making the skeleton of a game
Maybe Nintento starts selling the Cardboard only for ~20 bucks. As a replacement for people who already have baught the package and than the Cardboard gets damaged.
But besides that i think this could be a well selling thing, like the Wii, and the Motion Controlls.
I think the highest cost for replacements is like 15 bucks, and you can get the patterns as free PDFs.
00:26 Hahaha
I think labo is awseome
Jamontoast Gaming I think you're an idiot
SHIN BAKI HANMA I am not going into the fact that this is more than you think. You’re the idiot for thinking having an opinion makes you an idiot.
Abdullah Shalash Warrior of the mushrooms. No, no, no. Your peabrain is far too simplistic to comprehend what I think. So, I'll spell it out for you.
There's nothing wrong with having an opinion. The problem lies in having an opinion based on utter stupidity. Anyone, children included, who thinks Labo is awesome, is literally mentally challenged or severly lying to themselves and others. I tried this crap, and it is the most useless, uninteresting thing I've ever had the misfortune of wasting my time engaging in. There's nothing wrong with gimmicks now and then, but THIS is utterly insulting of Nintendo to wreak upon the buying public. The only thing more insulting is having all you idiots actually fall for this bullshit scam that Labo really is. Not to mention the $70 for the starter kit (just a set of cardboard and the software) you must pay IF you're retarded enough to fall from the scheme. Then another $80 for just the "robot" set (just mlre cardboard) that doesn't even come with the software. So, the second set is more expensive, and doesn't even include the software?! So, in the end, I'm not calling people idiots for merely having an opinion. I'm calling people idiots for having incredibly stupid opinions. There's a difference.
SHIN BAKI HANMA I will never get Labo, but I do have to say you are missing an entire part of what Labo is supposed to be. I agree that a lot of the Mini games are very shallow and gimmicky, but the toy con garage can warrant amazing things, and people have already started creating. Someone made a game and watch game using the software. This isn’t insulting of Nintendo to release this, but it think instead it is another example of Nintendo focusing on creativity. Remember, the audience for Labo is kids, and it introduces kids to programming at a basic level.
Duck Norris First off, I'm not misunderstanding Labo in anyway. It's not in the least a complex concept to grasp. People can currently do, and have already been doing what Nintendo claims Labo is supposed to represent, for like ever. You're not building anything with Labo, you're assembling astronomically overpriced cardboard, sticking your Switch screen and joycons on it, but spending a whole bunch of money to do so. So labo is in reality around $400-$500 for entry, due to the requirements of owning a Switch to use it.
You can buy actual interesting and far more intuitive kits of far greater quality for varied prices for your kid or yourself, and come away far more satisfied, and actually learn how to really create something. If Nintendo really cared about what people could accomplish with Labo (i.e, not a scam), then why not give the software as a standalone release at launch for like $20 or $30?! People with even a shred of common sense already know why, but I'll let you ponder the answer on your own.
You don't have to understand what I'm saying, I could care less, but don't tell me what I don't understand, especially when the topic is elementary school shit like Labo.

When you forget the script, go a bit out of your way to get the script even with your voice getting quieter in the distance, and flapping that paper
I wanna see the robot cardboard to have a vr headset and app to increase vr immersion.
At that price point I would expect better quality, especially since it's aimed at kids. The cynical side in me see the money making scheme in that.
Yes, they are making money. They need to pay the people who designed it.
But there is a difference in how companies make their money, and this I find questionable. You might be of another opinion, and that is fine.
Search cardboard structures on eBay or something made out of cardboard
Now _that_ is quality cardboard.
Henrik Andersson but no game.
Or you can just buy lego ?
iDoHardyFTW Yeah, remember that time someone played All Star with nothing but lego pieces? Oh wait...
Nintendo LAGO. They almost had it.
Finally i got
Ya
I have a 1 year old son and I love playing video games I would definitely buy the Switch and Labo in a heartbeat if he was of age. The experiences and the fun we would have building and playing would be priceless plus there is nothing like that on the market that I know of. Achievement Unlocked: New Experience.
I think this is a wonderful product. I am a soon to be first time dad and young at heart... will be buying this and keeping it for my kid, Incase it isn’t as popular and goes out of production.
The robot pack is a load of overpriced shit but the bundle looks good so i may buy it.
xItzz Alex it’s not overpriced search cardboard structures on eBay
The kit clearly had an incredible amount of work put into it and the engineering is quite impressive. I couldn't imagine a kit like this selling for anything less than $25. The game it comes with also is the only Labo games currently that isn't just a gimmick, it's actually a decent game in of itself and is fun to play, and it's based off of a Wii U games that's been in development for years. First-party Nintendo games like this are never cheap, and is likely the bulk of the cost here.
Is $80 a lot of money? Sure, you could get BotW with the DLC for that much. But this kit isn't designed for people who just simply want to play a traditional video game, it's designed for people who want to build something and then use that thing for a new, unique way of playing a video game.
It has a different audience in mind. Someone who doesn't care at all about pouring hundreds of hours into a fantasy game might think you're crazy for spending $80 on a piece of digital software.
BallGod9009 Exactly, you get what you pay for. £80 for cardboard is stupid. You would get bored of it in halve an hour and soon after that it will break. I get that Nintendo are experimenting but this is crap.
xItzz Alex You Get Software too.
The cardboard is 20$ the software is much more expensive than the cardboard.
I’m actually having a lot of fun with this you might not but I really enjoy it
Bit Bite Chomp Unironically Labo plus Switch is significantly cheaper and doesn’t give headaches
Ig that u’re paying 60$ for the game and an extra 10$ for the cardboard so i don’t really consider it expensive
People seem to have a really closed mind to this but it's actually a lot of fun... Some of the things you can do with the cardboard and joycons is actually mind blowing...
If you get this, I recommend hanging on to extra cardboard boxes that you come across. if you break a part, you can cut a new piece from the templates that Nintendo provides. Just need a box cutter and a ruler and you can make 16 backups if you know your kids won't take care of them.
It's really creative, but for $70-80? Ehhh I dunno
The card board itself is only 10 to 20 dollars
Unanimated then the software is 40- 50 dollars
yonas verbakel in other words same price range as just about every cartridge switch game
Trekeyus yup
Around the same price for a lego set. And the same entertainment value.
yonas verbakel *then
really loving jake's hair
I’ve spent nearly 70 hours in Labo all in all. Granted, a lot of that was letting it run in the background while I built custom contraptions, but that was still time that I wouldn’t have spent if I didn’t have Labo.
Honestly, one regular game is 60 bucks. With this you get hours and hours of fun building plus a bunch of little mini games for only 10$ more. I don't see how that's a bad deal.
David Stoneback , hours of fun?
My ass....
You'll get bored in like 30 min
And then you'll forget that it even exists as it stays there in a dark corner of ur switch library
This is even worse than those free to play games on steam
At least they have decent titles like paladins and Warframe
This is just a shitty cash grab and nothing else
I can get over 2500 hours of fun in an online game. So not worth it to me.
only sheeps will buy this nonsense
Switch games are usually less than $60
YakuZa it has a lot of $60 games, and it also have a lot that arent $60 (like every other system)
*pays 70 dollars for cardboard*
Alfredo Sauc actually it is mostly for the software.
ooga booga
I'd like to see the Labo items you make being used /useful in other games. Sword & shield for Zelda, boxing gloves for arms etc. That would be a cool way to extend it's value. Maybe I'll pick it up for a fun rainy day with friends but not likely given the price.
That _nigahiga_ video about this, a few months ago, is awesome inspiration if you can implement the Switch with any design like in that video.
*NINTENDO LABO* "Before you buy"..
Well this video is not going to have many views

Ya think?

You viewed this video, so are you going to buy this kids toy?
90k views already yo
100k after some hours ...
This comment section is CANCER...
1. You pay for the Software and well-cut cardboard. If something breaks just download the patterns online.
2. It's like a toy you buy at the museum, it may not be cheap, but it is very well made.
3. It's designed for kids, but I can bet most adults will be playing and creating with the software with it.
I'd rather have fun than "play" an interactive shaky-cam QTE movie!
Who says QTE games aren't fun? At least more than playing with cardboard :P
I bought the variety pack the day it came out and I don’t have too many cons to say about it. I found the cardboard surprisingly stiff and sturdy; although, this can be a little bit of a problem concerning smaller folds.
And I agree that the price is a little on the high side, but I kinda see it as one full price $60 game and then $10 of cardboard
Finally get to see wth actually is and does the Labo thing.
Like we were actually gonna buy a cardboard box for $80.
Ethan L you would be surprised how fast it sold out in some places
Somehow, there's a game in there too
Ethan L you would be surprised how many Nintendo fanboys will just about buy anything that says Nintendo on it
Antonius Armas
You know, I think I hear that about almost every product Nintendo comes out with.
It then proceeds to sell out soon after
If you compare it to Legos it doesn't seem as bad and it's a lot cheaper
My switch will continue to collect dust
It looks kinda cool. The thing is if you keep the cardboard that you cut the shapes out of you can use them like stencils to make copy's
People seem to forget that this isn’t just a package with a bunch of card board and mini games. It’s also a tool that can be used to make “programs” and whatnot.
"Nintendo Labo: Before you buy"
Don't.

Actually not what they said, nice lie.

I know that's not what they said. "Don't" would be in quotes if I was summarizing what they said. Learn how to properly English, and next time you'll understand. It was a joke, clearly.
Good day, though :)
Jake you ok ? Looking a bit... Draugr-ish
Dyl D I used to be an adventurer like you...but then I took an arrow to the knee.
I'll see myself out
Can't wait until it arrives!
I had no interest in the Switch until I saw Nintendo Labo. I bought the Switch a couple of months ago when I pre-ordered both Nintendo Labo packs for my kids. Over this past weekend I saw them building things following the instructions and then using their newly built cardboard toys that continue to use the Switch and controllers in creative ways.
As a parent, anything that can get my kids using their hands and minds to build things and see the activity as fun and rewarding is well worth the cost of Switch ($300+ with extra controller, memory card, charging dock) and the two Nintendo Labo sets (Variety Kit and Robot Kit at $75 each).
5:03 that’s not what BYB videos are. You _just_ said you had to marathon GoW to review it in BYB.
What a stupidly small thing to get pissy about
Actually yea, it is. Cause this is a byb for a physical gaming product. When it's not a game it ends up being pretty much like this
Audric Sage ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Mosr people think $70 is a lot for this. While it is on the high side, I’d say it’s reasonable. Considering most good Nintendo games are $60, it’s pretty much a game with $10 worth of cardboard.
No the software is 20 dollars max and cardboard is worth literally less than 50 cents.
Kable10 Plus the mechanisms that specially designed each template, plus the ink used in each one, plus the special programming software that comes with the software, plus the extra dollars that you left out on the price of the cardboard itself... Think deeper into the process before you say anything
Kable10 Yeah. You do realize the people that designed this have to be payed, right?
dude...ITS NOT its overpriced common cardboar
Kable10 Omg... how can someone with such a simple mind have so much subscribers. That's beyond scary.
If you really knew the costs of producing the cardboard especially from recycled cardboard.
And all mechanisms that go into these contraptions and the engineers that had to come up with all the ideas, like for using the camera in the back of the piano and motion controls mixed with elastic bands.
And then you still have the software that had to be made, in which all minigames have a lot of depth. And there also is the mode where you can make your own act -> react sequences with the Switch an joycons which have limitless possibilities like making your own working guitar out of cardboard.
So it has all the right to be the price it is. And maybe research products, research costs and use critical thinking before making assumptions and acting like you know how something works while you're clearly uninformed.
it’s expensive, but i imagine it does a LOT for immersion and imaginations for young kids.
I bought this for my family and we are all totally obsessed. It's absolutely worth the cost. For reference, my daughter is 10 so she's past the age of playing rough with things. You'll also want to keep your creations in a safe place if you have pets.
Fun Fact: No one has finished the video as of now.

War Duke Gaming what if we skip to the end?
Just watched the whole thing.
War Duke Gaming dunnn dunnnn dumpppppppp
War Duke Gaming I did
do I get a price? if you are referring to people coming to the video just to shit on labo I got news for you, finishing the video doesn't make labo any better a price per value proposition, this is just more of nintendo shooting the shit and bad fanboys eating it up, if you don't have the correctly aged children for this to make sense picking up, skip and use those $70 you saved to get you a pro controller, because the joycons are shit
have a good day
People are salty af about this, I don't know, maybe you don't belong in the target demographic? 😂
pass the salt, I guess? 😂
You know who pays $70 for a piece of cardboard intended for certain demographic? The other demographic that actually earns money and has to pay for it. By that logic parents shouldn't be complaining about over-priced toys, because they are not going to play with them. Most of the negative comments are about pricing, not the actual idea behind it. $70 for what it is basically a $4.99 mobile game and some cardboard is just ridiculous.
Well, how about just let the ridiculous idea die by not buying/ignoring it. Nintendo will get the point eventually. But if there are people buying it, Nintendo will continue making it, that's just how it works.
Joe-Mar Gonzales It's meant for kids that's the problem. I babysit and I know if I gave this to one of those kids they will play with it for like 30 minutes and get tired of it. So you basically wasted 70 on cardboard
Gilbert Remigio then don't buy it, make your own, what's the problem?
Gameranx your the best keep up the amazing vids
It would be cool if the robot kit worked with Skyrim or Shovel Knight.
I would rather just buy a box of Legos.
Why do people keep calling it to expensive it comes with a game and carboard structures actually cost a lot of money just look at eBay for cardboard structures and tell me it’s overpriced
I'm a child at heart and I think this looks really neat. That said I did buy one for my step son and I'm hoping he likes it and I get to play with it too
Excellent video, subscribed.
Its just a cardboard box there
Angel Wayne plus the software. It’s like calling legos plastic. Yes, it’s true, but there is more than just that.
Sandviper5339 Official yep there is more then just looks
Which is more ripped-off? PUBG or N-Labo?
Anything Nintendo is a ripoff, you're basically buying hardware hardly better than the N64 for 300 bucks in 2018. Throw in amiibo and overpriced dlc, along with paid dial-up-tier online and you have a company worse than EA
As Expected of Pieck overpriced dlc? Where? Either youre trolling or youre just someone who doesnt know what they are saying?
Not sure you know definition of ripped off, meaning to copy cheaply I guess pubg has inspired some imitators but labo, other than Lego which is funny if that’s what you were going for as this is a very original idea. But if you mean rip off as in waste of money then I guess that’s your opinion
No it's *ROBLOX MINECRAFT EDITION*
As Expected of Pieck You're hilarious. The switch is barely better than the n64? Nintendo has to much dlc? Comedy gold.
I was thinking in regards to your concern about multiple recharges during the building, you could power the switch via power bank. It will maintain the tablet view without dying on you. Apart from that, I think they could have gone with plastic, sort of like those old k'nex.
The Robot Kit is so much fun to build
SO CARDBOARD FOR 70 BUCKS ,THIS IS NOT THE GODAMN FUTURE !!
Apocalypse 47 there is also software
You can program
Ninten dude789 but not as well. There is a reason these people get paid.

Have you tried it?
Ninten dude789 yes.
Couldn't u just cut out cardboard and diy?
Jeremy Ellis Yes they have put out the designs as pdfs. So yeah you can just wait and buy the software on its own for cheaper if want. However cutting out your own probably will be slightly not as good looking because it doesn't have all the perferations the included stuff has.
And the cardboard is well made.
SSSSHHHH..yes
Jeremy Ellis that was my first thought haha. But Nintendo fanboys will get upset with you.. They don't seem to grasp the fact that they're paying $80 for cardboard. They consider it innovative haha
Jeremy Ellis you could, if you weren't an idiot. But people who buy Labo are idiots. So, quit not being an idiot, smart person.
I can't believe that I have now seen the day when my childhood hobby and joy of building stuff from cardboard cut outs is now with an instruction manual and is sold at such a high price.
The concept really is unique. Gameplay is great and pretty intuitive. For the kid at heart like myself, i feel like if i’m playing this much, the cardboard should be a little bit more sturdy.
It’s like popcorn... a rip off
Lol popcorn is more worth it 😂😂😂
Did you just insult popcorn?!
Popcorn at the movies costs cents to make but they sell it for like $20.

Hey Jake. I love that Mugman shirt! Lookin good, man ;)
i love the concept. And how Nintendo makes things that nobody is willing to do. If they find a way to make it accessible and interactive I think toys like lego and so on catch up with this. It feels that it might be a great way to introduce your kids to gaming.
