Forums - Nintendo - Labo is a huge ripoff and a waste of a great concept (so far)

came here to post this, Dunkey is fantastic :D

See Metal Gear Survive and No Mans Sky get a cameo at 1:27 (there's an X360 game there too but I can't make it out)



Why not check me out on youtube and help me on the way to 2k subs over at www.youtube.com/stormcloudlive

In the long run it's good for everyone that LABO flopped/sold below Nintendo's expectations. It could have been a decent product for kids if the software would have been better than 5 dollar shovelware.

This makes no sense

You think the software is actually worth more than 5-10 dollars? That makes no sense.

I actually haven't used the product, have you?

You can kind of chock this up to stuff like Game Boy camera and what not. Nintendo likes doing these odd products. Its endearing.

I have been in the same room when it was being played. And just like with other hastily made software, it's easy to tell that not much effort has been put to it.

I am very sure those who uses derivatives of it with Ariana Grande to perform the musical piece would disagree with you on the effort put into it. Now try performing music with God of War or even Far Cry.

It clearly states it is for building, playing and exploring. I think a lot of those games you would say have more effort put into it are for playing only. 

It is apparently one of the top performers for April NPD.

That's like going to Target and judging a game based on a kiosk. "Oh it was there when I was in the store so therefore I can give a 100% concise review"

I was speaking about the games that come with it. And I think that the vast majority of its target audience are going to use it by playing the games. That's why I find it foolish that so little effort was put in them.

"Now try performing music with God of War". That's an mindless "argument" and you know it. How God of War would benefit from it/what would be the point of it? You just admitted with that statement that you agree that those LABO games are really shallow and low quality. Or do you have any reasonable arguments?
