Nintendo brings cardboard DIY crafts to another level with Nintendo Labo

Nintendo has always been at the forefront of gaming tech, though history dictates – it seems – that Nintendo unfortunately seldom reaps the rewards, or at least the credit, when the tech develops and blossoms.

And though Nintendo spoke on their current direction not taking on the world of VR,the company is still having some fun with their new initiative – Nintendo Labo.

So if as a kid, or adult, you enjoyed building forts or weapons out of cardboard boxes, Nintendo has some cool stuff for you to build that works in conjunction with your Nintendo Switch gaming experience.

Description reads:

Get ready to Make, Play and Discover with Nintendo Labo! Nintendo Labo is a new line of interactive build-and-play experiences that combine DIY creations with the magic of Nintendo Switch.
