Designer News
Where the design community meets.
3 years ago from Kirk Castro, Co-Founder at Shepherd Software Inc.
I was thinking the same thing, but I don't really see how people can design custom protoypes unless Nintendo provides a SDK and allows developers to write custom Labo software.
Also, the video shows some cool ideas that are not actually included in the kits (e.g. foot pedal).
My only thought was that foot pedal is getting destroyed, along with many other of their cardboard devices. Some seemed interesting but all in all this is going to be a flop.
Remember you wrote this in 4 months time when this product starts printing money for Nintendo.
Get back to me in a year or two. If Labo is still around in two years, I'll happily eat mown words.

Have feedback?
After watching the trailer, I was blown away at the creativity behind Nintendo's new concept. It's really cool to see how Switch has taken gaming to a new place. I can foresee people designing their own prototypes for a more immersive AR/VR experience. Any other thoughts?
