Nintendo Labo: Cardboard toys for Nintendo Switch

[Rubenandres77]

Nintendo has just launched a new interesting concept:

Cardboard accessories for their recent Switch console.

I find it awesome that the company is thinking on this.

Cardboard crafts you have to actually build with your hands to enhance the experience you have with a video game

You buy them for seventy to eighty dollars and punch out the parts. I'd bet if one fell on my desk I'd have a blast right now!

Interesting accessory idea, I would only question the robustness of the items.

I bet "very high".

I've received a couple of items from Japan from different companies, and the cardboard they use for their shipping boxes is very sturdy and of high quality. It's a more dense and more solid material than in other parts of the world.

I believe Nintendo will also use that great Japanese cardboard for this toys that need to suffer constant use. That would also explain the price, which is not exactly cheap for each piece. There seems to be a lot of thinking and engineering in some accessories.
