I'm a big fan of combining the physical and digital worlds 👏

Using the physical world to engage with video games is something we've wanted from Nintento from the beginning. Looks like the've finally delivered. I love that they've chosen cardboard instead of plastic. This makes developing and expanding very inexpensive. This leads to a much more personal for the kids, as they are encouraged to colour it and make it their own. This inspires creativity, not only for the kids, but also for the game developers as well. Any smart gaming company will create something like this for their games, and this experience truly sets the nintendo switch apart from any other console. Well done Nintendo, you have my respect.

Pros:

Creates immersive experiences in an eco-friendly and really creative way. A really immersive gaming experience.

Cons:

Durability may be an issue

it seems i found an excuse for buying nintendo switch

Pros:

cool !

Cons:

none

This is why I love Nintendo. They've always thought of themselves more as a toy company and it shows in their games and consoles. Faster processors and better graphics are fine, but I always end up spending the most time with Nintendo consoles. They take risks and are willing to chase their imagination. Can't wait to try this out.

Perfect timing. @suzywillow just bought me a Switch. 🙏🏼 Nintendo's on a tear this past year with the success of Switch and it's expansion to iOS/Android gaming (finally!).

Very very nice project :) I remember when I was like 6 years old, daddy bought me a cassette for Commodore 64 with a software to simulate playing piano, and there was an accessory included with piano keys to put on the C64 keys. It actually "transformed" the computer into an electronic keyboard, the feeling was different when using it, and it was fun. So yes, of course cardboard objects can radically transform an experience. It makes me wish to design some objects/experiences for the Switch, though I'm not sure if it the platform will be open for others to design and offer Labo projects.

Wow, just wow.

Oh you crazy Nintendo, I love you. Can you imagine any big western company attempting to build something like this? I really can't. Takes some real balls.

It all looks so simple but at the same time mind blowing :D

Nintendo is making big moves into exciting spaces. The switch lends itself to modularity so well!

This is great 😄

I love Nintendo for this! To come back to children, to unite real and technological in such a natural, fun, almost magical way.

now a nintendo switch makes sense, i love it!!

That's thinking outside the box (on so many levels)

That video is rocking! 🤟

Really a big fan. It reminds me of Google Cardboard, and I think it's just the beginning for the Nintendo Switch. There's a lot of stuff they can do. For Young adults and kids too!

BIG UPVOTE

This looks super cool!

Cheers to Nintendo for going with cardboard and foregoing the tons of plastic wasted during the Wii sports attachment era.

I love this––been getting back into video games and this is a helpful catalyst.
