/v/ - Video Games

Motion control gaming was dead before the Kinect even came out, hence it's failure, and it was largely due to Wii Music. That game opened up a lot of people's eyes when it came to just how serious game developers were about wagglan.

>Motion control gaming was dead before the Kinect even came out, hence it's failure

Kinect was pretty successful actually which is why we saw microsoft push it with xbone. Of course nobody in the core market gave a shit about it so it caused backlash.

>>14202818

Sony TORY™ will have plastic parts that you assemble.

>>14202818

PSFoil? Microsoft Styrofoam? Nah, they'll do their own thing instead of mimicking Nintendo on their latest fad.

>>14202826

>>14202903

Kinect looked more of a copy of the PlayStation Eye Toy.

>>14202927

TI is going to offer electronic parts that you assemble.

>>14202931

Kinect sold more than Eye Toy and had more support, and that's not even including the kinects that were given out for free in console bundles.

>the year is 2040

>it looks just like now except everyone is in cardboard /vr/ battle armor

>>14202999

You walk around the streets with a VR headset strapped to your head?

>>14203003

>>14202999

I hope you get hit by traffic when you do this shit anon.

Labo reminds me of all those 3rd party accessories for the NES.

You wanna get in shape, play Ninja Gaiden 3 with the PlayStation Move controls. That shit will wear you out quick.

>>14202999

That's not the question to ask the shill. You should instead ask the shill why he gives a shit what outsells what? Does the shill think sales indicate quality? Does the shill think that WE think sales equate to quality?

The most important thing we know about Labo so far is that they've shown zero interesting gameplay on the thing. "YOU CAN PUSH THIS THING INTO THE SIDE OF A HOUSE!" "YOU CAN FISH KIND OF!" Wowee zowee if that doesn't get your dick hard I don't know what will.

I thought it was bad enough when Nintendo started selling on-disc DLC locked behind crappy overpriced happy meal toys. I thought it was rock bottom when they went hard into mobile gaming with all the grace of a jew seeing a £50 note on the floor. But selling cardboard to people for £70 quid truly is the pinnacle of "our customers are all fucking idiots I bet they'll let us do..."

>>14203037

Reminds me more of the Wii ones. The NES ones at least got a few games to use them in, while the Wii had 1 accessory for 1 game.

>>14203047

>£70 quid

What did anon mean by this?

Also, you can get them for free and print them, buy them from third-parties for cheap or just sticky tape the controller to your body part.

>>14203054

You can just waggle your arms in a darkened room by yourself and pretend your fishing or playing house or whatever shit you want to do too. What bearing does this have on this being an overpriced pile of shit with no gameplay to show?

If fucking cardboard supplants VR before VR even gets good I might kill myself. I'm not even a vr fag

>>14203069

I never said it did, I just wanted to question you typing the pound sign then adding quid after that.

The spoiler was just telling you that it's not £70 quid unless you're a retard.

>>14203089

>buying into yet another (((console))) hardware gimmick

Fixed.

>>14203078

Nothing costs anything unless your a retard. Just because you can pirate games doesn't mean you should avoid shitting on the ones that are overpriced for being overpriced.

You can spoof amiibo chips with a smartphone and a 50p sticker from amazon. Doesn't mean it's not worthwhile pointing out that they're a shitty business practice designed to bilk money out of autists and children.

I hope to god it bombs. The last thing Nintendo needs is another retarded non-vidya thing taking off.

>>14202818

I'd associate Labo with the Playstation Wonderbook, which is just a cheap peripheral aimed at kids. Chances are good that it'll be dropped almost immediately outside of a couple fringe games then again, this is Nintendo we're talking about, so don't hold your breath.

>Labo might outsell VR

Doubt it. Labo will only sell to a subset of Switch owners, if that. So it already limited the target audience.

>>14202818

knowing nintendo fanatics and nintendo scalpers it will sell out for NO REASON and Nintendo Will unable to RESTOCK FOR NO REASON, and Cardboard Labo will Cost DOUBLE for NO REASON

>>14215132

Oh yeah, because VR's target audience totally isn't limited, what with the $500 entry fee for just some of the hardware.

>>14215129

To be fair autistic nips with too much of daddy's money in their bank account is a pretty small subset of switch owners.

Most of the other ones are children after all.

Some of them even have eyes that open all the way.

It just might if chinks do open their borders to the console market and Nintendo jumps in. The ants from poorer families will use the cardboard gimmick instead of VR and there is an endless supply of those subhumans.

Hey soyboy

>>14215162

How is that any different for the Labo? You still need to buy a Switch just to use the cardboard. In the end, both are too overpriced and are fleecing consumers.

>the odor of pungent flop sweat wicked up by cardboard

I just want most of everyone to be wished away to the cornfield at this point.

>>14202818

It's a cardboard box.

>>14202818

It's just Google Cardboard under a different name with a Nintendo sticker so manchildren will buy it.

I can't imagine it being a legitimate fad. It actually looks like there might be potential to do some neat minigames and stuff with it, bit the concept on works at all because of Nintendo's hardon for making their console hardware weird as fuck. And despite me saying that it's actually a bit intriguing, the fact remains that most of these are going to be the type of shit meant to keep kids entertained for 30 minutes at most per "form" or whatever you want to call it.

>>14215230

>>Labo will only sell to a subset of Switch owners,

The response has been completely lukewarm everywhere i've seen it discussed, normalfags just think it's a neat idea for their kids if they don't just destroy it in seconds, while the nitnendofags are predictably desperately trying to defend it, telling people that you need to pay the 80 bucks for the official nintendo branded cardboard because you're not going to get the same results with regular cardboard.

>>14202903

It was more the 1984 stigma (always online camera that can recognize faces and see in the dark), plus the fact that they tried to force it on everyone, even people who did not want it, adding a $100 dollars over a ps4 which was $399.

>>14218493

>$100 dollars

I need some sleep.

>>14217713

>telling people that you need to pay the 80 bucks for the official nintendo branded cardboard because you're not going to get the same results with regular cardboard.

*Even then they don't actually seem to like this either, they're just astroturfing the fuck out of it due to an innate need to protect their favorite comapany in muh console war

>>14215070

This. I would rather see Nintendo make video games.

>>14218577

What if

Labo ROB

>>14218695

you know it would be funny if someone pretended to be rob for a thread so someone can run his name to the ground even more

>>14218704

>Bring up rob

>Immediately assume I'm talking about the storytime nerd

Fuck outta here

>>14218715

<actually wanting a piece of shit cardboard robot when you could be the robot

what are you a gay

>>14218724

You can never be a robot

At most you can be a cyborg, which is like the mechanical equivalent of being a tranny

>hipsters mistake glasses left on floor of art exhibit as actual art

<LOL degenerates amirite

>janitors mistake labo boards left on store room as garbage

<(USER WAS BANNED FOR THIS POST)

>>14218739

>Labo compared to postmodernist art.

Both are garbage created to innovate and break molds for the sake of it instead of being something really good.

Truly, is like pottery

>>14218735

that's more accurate

>>14218760

Why would you buy a PS4 and a switch if you already own a PC?

>>14218784

Having money isn't an excuse to act retarded

>I bet you even have a Steam account and unironically like Skyrim.

don't project your good goy tendencies on me

>>14218791

Why would you care?

>>14218577

I hope it rains every time you cardboard nintendrones leave your house. Also fuck me this is going to be another shitty nu-paper mario gimmick.

>>14225358

Said nobody that's ever browsed this board, ever.

>>14218730

>Harvey Heebstein

>Gregg "Titty Boy" "Opie" Hughes

The ultimate collection

>>14202818

Maybe if it came out next generation, but cardboard is too flimsy. Labo could be cool if it supports pre built products aka 3D printing. However the need for cardboard is holding the idea back.

>>14226426

>From this day onward anon was known as the Box Baron.

>>14226426

Go for it, become the Box Baron

>>14226426

As long as you give us a discount I'm game.

>>14218752

>no matter what I try to get him to play… Knack, you name it…

I see niggers still cannot into good games.
