I feel as if we’re hearing stuff like this from an elitist POV. I get that some won’t like the idea or won’t buy it and that’s all fine and dandy. But to make this product as if there’s some conspiracy $&%# behind it is asinine. Nintendo has messaged that this product is for kids and kids-at-heart. They’re history as a toy maker reflects this product. Why does there have to be a conspiracy theory behind it? Because they want to make money? No $&%# they want to make money like any other damn company (ie, Sony, Microsoft, Apple, EA, Activision, etc.). And even then, they create these products to enhance the use of the Switch and bring in audiences like children into the fold.

I’ve seen many toys that cost just as much, if not more at Toys R Us (ie, dolls, action figures, plastic cars, toy sets, LEGOs, etc.). Why does cardboard packaged with software warrant an asinine conspiracy theory? We might as well make conspiracy theories on PSVR or Kinect because they’re just as much add-ons to their respective consoles as Nintendo Labo.
