It just fits perfectly, and yet the announcement was someone no one could have seen coming. Surely it was already in the planning stages when the Switch hardware was being finalized, and it feels like a nostalgic echo of Iwata's influence. It really reminds me of Nintendo at their best, innovating gameplay in ways that Sony and Microsoft never could. |
Yeah as much as it the sort of thing I personally would buy, I actually quite liked Labo for being so creative, unique, and totally out of left field. A lot of the ways they came up with for using the IR camera, gyros, and HD rumble was really clever and cool.
