So zorg, how'd you go with the rest of the Toy-cons?

Good, piano is definitely my favorite, still working on The Office theme, and i messed around with the garage a bit but havent had a chance to make any creations yet.

My wife and i are doing an MCU marathon before we see Infinity War on Friday so that has taken up most of my free time in the last few days lol



When the herd loses its way, the shepard must kill the bull that leads them astray.

Mario Kart 8 Deluxe now supports the Labo motorbike controls

Nintendo say similar support will be added to other games in the future.

Also, after 4 weeks of sales data, VGChartz has the Variety Kit at 400k and the Robot Kit at 143k

Meanwhile, Nintendo has said that sales so far are in line with expectations: https://gonintendo.com/stories/311497-nintendo-labo-has-met-expectations-and-will-continue-to-be-supp

Yay! Would definitely love to try how it works.



Pocky Lover Boy! 

Now Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is even more Deluxy :P



My bet with The_Liquid_Laser: I think the Switch won't surpass the PS2 as the best selling system of all time. If it does, I'll play a game of a list that The_Liquid_Laser will provide, I will have to play it for 50 hours or complete it, whatever comes first.

Hey, you can't say something positive in front of Labo haters just like that. Have some decency, please.

Also, while not an official winner, these guys used Labo to make a working laser tag kit, complete with sound effects and health bars for each player:



I'm so amazed about what people can do with Labo. It's mind blowing. I could never come up with such ideas.



Nintendo of America have announced a Labo + Switch bundle for $340 USD, so basically you get the Switch for its usual price of $300 plus the Labo Kit of your choice at a reduced $40
