I am curious to see the actual games. This is the only LABO Kit to be announced without a video, which is especially unusual given its only a month til it comes out.

From the poster/PR it's fairly easy to work out what they might be; the Blaster is said to be used in a game fighting off an alien invasion, the camera for photographing sea life, there looks to be one where you just use the visor to look around at planets or other vistas, while the elephant one could be something like using your "trunk" to pick fruit from a tree, and the bird one presumably combines with the pedal to give a sense of "you're flying and you can feel the wind on you".

Also, rechecking the original January 2018 reveal trailer, all the Toycons shown there are now accounted for, so it looks like this 4th Kit will complete the LABO series. They were quite sneaky in that trailer as in the wide shot at the end you can actually see them using some of the VR Kit Toycons, but they're not holding up up to their faces, so as not to give away that they're for VR.

I never claimed the LABO VR Kit came at the expense of non-VR gaming.

This is the best Labo Kit so far! The amount of creativity you can do here is at its maximum. Definetly passed my expectations.

So Nintendo must have recently invited the tech media to try out Labo VR, as all the major tech sites have hands-on articles up now. The author of this article came in skeptical but is now excited about Labo VR: http://www.nintendolife.com/news/2019/03/hands_on_theres_more_to_nintendos_labo_vr_than_meets_the_eye

As a father of a 10 and (almost) 12 year old, I'm certainly interested. I will likely pick up the $40 starter kit and get the expansions if the kids and I like what's there.

This looks great, nice first step for Nintendo in VR field.

Eurogamer love it.

im actually more than likely going to get it, it looks really cool. Gives me the early PSVR vibe where nothing hugely compelling but enough cool and interesting ideas behind the concept. Hopefully Nintendo grows it and fleshes out their VR more as time goes on, worked out great for Sony, I'm sure Nintendo can think of something too. One thing is get started on a Labo Toy-Cam + Pokemon Snap 2 bundle and you got Labo at over a million seller with that alone.

You're not pulling any punches today I see. I personally don't think VR is gonna die. I think it's going to carve out its own little niche and stay there, like racing wheels.

Never wanted Labo, Never wanted VR. Now I want both.

Having watched the overview now, I'm actually interested in the game. Not 100% sold on it yet, but the fact that there's basically a VR game developers kit included is really cool, and really tempting to me.

Camera seems good. The "wind pedal" is terrible. Face blaster is weird. Trying to use paint tools with a cardboard elephant trunk is awful. Also, it's supposed to be "a bird's EYE view," not ... well, you know. Lots of throw-away shovelware but some of it looks interesting.

They should invest in the camera thing, I think it could be popular with a good amount of support and a lot of variety. Dinosaur safaris and alien planets, for example. However, they should really drop the "attached to your face" gimmick for some of this stuff.
