anyways, this will be a gadget where the sales are based more around post-release reception than pre release I think. If it catches on then it does, if it doesn't it doesn't.

Lol, it was the same source :) Just made it into two seperate threads to avoid a war! :P

For me it is really difficult to estimate how successful Nintendo Labo will be.

I wonder how much fun the customers will have in a long run with this product. If this is the case I could see that it could be a big success especially with a strong word of mouth.

No thanks for Labo. I could see some people being interested in it, but no cardboard for me.

Good. Hopefully this will be the final nail in the coffin of shovelware gimmicks. I can understand motion control, but this isn’t even a cool novelty like that. Maybe this will teach Nintendo to just bring us the games.

I certainly won't feel any sorrow if it does bomb.

I actually forgot it exists. I hope it's not a complete flop, that would be sad, but I went from "I want to try it" to "ain't nobody got time for that".

He's a insider with gamestop sales info, other wise he would banned by now. I thought it was gonna flop, these things are hit and miss, but are usually miss.

Twitch and youtube are gonna be filled with people posting GOW Lets Play vids for the next month, to be fair i cant blame them casue GOW is prolly what will generate the most traffic for streamers over the next few weeks.

Labo is gonna get over shadowed unfortunately, and it might have to wait for the GOW hype to die down.

How we can know that he is inisder with Gamestop, from OP you dont know anuthing, its sound just liky random post, you cant relly make thread just one post without any informations about source. This dont means that labo will flop, when people alaredy like to post posts from people from Resetera, MatPiscatella The NPD Group - Video Game Industry Analyst Verified User:

"Not sure Labo should be judged until we get through December".
