They're going to start to be massively down regardless of that. The thing is going to b e 6-years-old this year. Can't stay up forever.

How much would that be?

Well I see AAA games on PS4 level as being $60m+.
Double AA games are less than half of that, and A level games again are like a $5-10m.
Lets say Nintendo spent $10m to make all the various kits of Labo
And then the cardboard costs with each kit is like 2$.
$10m (R&D) + 2$ x 2m kits (cardboard) = $14m:
Lets say they sold 2m kits of 80$ = $160m revenue.
Now the shops take their cuts, and theres shipping & packageing, but its very apparent that nintendo just takes the vast marjority and banks it.
Ei. they have heavy profits on it.

I think you underestimate the cost of shipping such product since fees are generally based on weight and one Labo kit is surprisingly heavier than it look like.
Last time I checked, Labo kits are shipped in packaged of two and the box is heavier than a box of PS4 games which include 30 units. R&D, production and shipping cost are definitely higher than what you might think.
