shill or not, let the bets begin!

>>14331142

Fuck, if I took the time to sage, I would've gotten triple dubs

>>14331144

>got them anyways

>Embedding Youtube directly

>So uh

Let's all laugh at the retard

>so this is the power of the cardboard box …. …. whoa …

For i moment i honestly thought i was on 2013 cuckchan.

I must admit the bike game and the piano do offer a ton of possibilities for autists to create custom stuff, but nowhere near enough to justify the price point.

But disregarding that, since when did Gamexplain become a glorified advertising channel as opposed to some game analysis bullshit or whatever the fuck they were doing before.

Robot Kit trailer. Shows more modes, abilities, weird things like putting the Switch inside the back pose so you can make sounds when you move (2:52) and even a 2P vs mode Which is going to require another kit obviously unless this has online.

>>14331227

Spare cardboard box, not included.

>>14331169

>>14331326

>Create terrain using a 3d object like your hand

>How long before someone scans their dick to see what "terrain" it generates?

The process of creating a track with the flying motorcycle looks like a pretty good feature, I been wondering if someone would implement a track designer like that in a racing game for years.

This honestly looks kinda cool, if only from a potential standpoint, it's fucking ridiculous how much they've stretched the inputs and outputs just on the two joycons

If they can do that much, I can imagine autistic simulators making use of entire cockpits and shit that would have otherwise been too expensive to produce

>>14331326

Gameexplain , more like Gayexplain

How the hell are people going to preserve these things? Its going to be hell for collectors and people who like to keep their stuff in good conditions.

>>14331599

Just as planned, goyjin.

>>14331599

I'm sure vidya historians will be happy to learn cardboard is a renewable resource

>>14331599

They actually said that they'll have replacement kits for sale (of course). I am inclined to give them the benefit of the doubt and assume that those would be dirt-cheap (<= $10) and that the full kit is only that expensive because of the bundled game, but it's a fool's hope at best.

>>14331428

>dick scanning

Thought of that too.

>>14331623

I hope that some third party releases prebuilt plastic alternatives, not like I intend to buy this shit, ever.

The tamagotchi and piano looks like the only interesting things in there, the fishing and bike game seem barebones as fuck

>>14331638

I've decided to just accept everything in that video as a proof of concept, similar to what 1-2-switch or wii sports were. The mechanics presented in that video can easily be improved upon to make full games, and >>14331428 seems to be a far more complex and fleshed out design anyway.

It's something I would have loved ages 3-6.

>>14331674

>Let's take this $300 console and put it inside of a cardboard backpack which the kid will wear while jumping around playing robots

>What could possibly go wrong

Out of all that's shown this is by far the stupidest thing.

>>14331674

That kid looks like a fucking faggot.

>>14331699

>Let's have the multiplayer be two little kids wearing cumbersome cardboard suits with shit in front of their eyes punching and kicking in the middle of their rooms while trying to pay attention to the TV

It's gonna be hilarious

>>14331708

I would post some top tier memes, but that would trigger some people here and probably get me banned.

>accessories literally made out of cardboard

HAHAHAHAHAHA

Oh holy shit. At least they had the decency to use plastic for Wiimote accessories. This is retarded. How do they expect kids not to break them? Cardboard. Fucking cardboard. Hahaha

>>14331722

>Install shit so OP can continue being retarded

Why would I do this and miss out on the chance to bully a stupid fuck?

>>14331724

That's the point. Break them so you buy some replacements.

>>14331137

>>14331169

>>14331428

>>14331711

>I think little kids will love it.

Same thoughts here, but I would add: Cynically, this is just a means of releasing new peripherals in the cheapest way possible. Optimistically, I have seen far worse games cranked out for kids. At least these games and kits indicate a modicum of thought and effort.

>create your own fish

Now to wait for the fish tank filled with dicks

>>14331771

Are you mentally retarded?

I can't imagine anyone actually buying this but a lot of the software seems pretty impressive and inventive.

>>14331829

Little children love making things. There's a god damn reason LEGO is so popular. What you can't see is that it's not about the piano, it's about the activity of assembling the piano yourself. The only manchild I see here is the one getting absolutely assblasted that Nintendo released a literal toy for children instead of something that appealed to him.

Schutzstaffel labo gear when?

Check em

>>14331599

>>14331617

I think what's going to be interesting is how long will the cardboard attachments handle repeated motion/friction use and contact with human skin (and sweat). With plastic you can just wipe it down, how do you clean cardboard?

I heard a theory somewhere that one possible reason for the price is Nintendo using a higher quality cardboard (not the usual cheap corrugated stuff)

>>14331638

From what I heard of the Variety Kit

>RC Car, can RC or function as a robot using the IR camera to "see", has 2 player battle mode (if you have another pair of Joy Con)

>Fishing, cast line and sinking to deeper depths gets different fish, put fish in aquarium to view later, create your own dick fish.

>Dollhouse, a weird virtual pet that can be interacted with using the different attachments, using mutiple ones at once seems to activate minigames. The cable attachment can connect to another house for multiplayer

>Bike, GP racing mode, balloon collecting mode?, track creator and IR camera terrain creator to put your dick in the game. Still no word on mulitplayer (local or online)

>Piano, fucking crazy amount of music stuff that's beyond me, including making your own waveform. Unknown if you can make a dick shaped waveform thing.

>Garage, the strange programming interface which allows you to make you own creations like the guitar or controlling the RC car with the motorbike toy con. This is probably going to have the most potential from the maker community and yet seems to be talked about (by Nintendo) the least, annoyingly enough.

>>14331712

It's gonna turn into a Bart and Lisa style fight of spinning arms and kicking air, if you get hit, it's you own fault.

You can clearly see the target audience in the commercial. Why the hell is this discussed here? I know you're all manchildren but even that has its limits.

>>14331888

Do you have a video or anything regarding that programming interface? As a programmer, it intrigues me, but I didn't see it in the video anywhere.

>>>/toy/

>>14331137

Not this shit again.

Well, I would buy it for my kids instantly. People always say how kids these days always sit in front of their monitors or ipads or so, and this would be a great toy to offer a mix of both, and possibly a good introduction to more complex stuff like lego robots or arduinos.

But yeah, it's a toy for kids, why are you autists even bothered by this.

>>14332025

I too would buy it for my wife's kids.

>>14331137

>>14331428

I'm surprised at how much they managed to squeeze out of the piano and the bike games, the variety pack genuinely looks better than the robot game

>>14331137

>They didn't even bother replacing the actual on-screen text with English

Yeah, Labo is a Japanese product for Japanese people, and they know it. I don't think it's going to get much traction over here.

I like the ideas and what it expands on. I'm still worried about the durability of the cardboard. Now I wish other game companies can actually use the creative applications that the Joycons can show instead of letting Nintendo do it themselves. They don't even need to use the cardboard. Seems like you can do many different things with it if you actually try to make a game catered to the console instead of just a port.

>>14333653

>spend time reshooting or digitally editing a commercial because some spergasaurus rex might notice a detail out of place

Yeah, nah.

>>14333653

Gee, maybe that has something to do with this not being a video by Nintendo

I'm gonna buy five and sell four and I'm going to make a profit and there's nothing you market-retarded faggots can do to stop me

>>14331169

>theres a camera in the bottom of the joycon

Why was this never talked about when they showed the damn thing off years ago?

So how long until someone recreates the cardboard bits with either corrugated plastic or thin sheets of another polymer for better durability? I'd say sheet metal, but that's obviously not kid friendly and weight would probably become a problem. But it should be fairly trivial to laser cut some sheets of something to match.

>>14333834

It's an infrared camera, there's one in your wiimote as well (it's the thing that sees the wii's sensorbar, which is just two IR LEDs at a fixed spacing)

1 2 Switch uses it as well.

Will it be possible once Switch homebrew is a thing to have a literal sex simulator with the right accessories?

>>14333864

I honestly expect people to make solid versions of this crap ionstead of using cardboard. If homebrew takes off it might become the budget alternative to VR bullshit.

And while the gimmicks look neat, their just that: gimmicks. I don't expect this to be stellar in sales.

>>14331169

Can't wait to see dick holes and tit mountains with people scanning their private parts.

>>14331137

>Yakuza backed company is spying your house using controllers now

fug

>>14331428

I'm not sure what justifies the $80 price tag for the robot. Plus I'm going to call it now that there are going to be people who take the robot kit outside and get robbed.

>>14334091

Pretty sure it's $60 for the robot game plus 20 for the cardboard kit.

>>14333864

I mean, the IR camera can see depth so you could put it inside an onahole and see how far something's stuck inside, but that's a pretty roundabout way of doing it and you're gonna cum on the controller.

it's going to fail. it's too inconvenient

>>14334113

>>14334113

>jpg:large

>>14331137

I'm still not convinced that the labo is real.

i want to steal an entire shipping container of labo kits and set them all on fire.

>>14334205

I thought you got arrested again shad, stay in prison pls

>>14331973

you seriously doubt nintendo's autistic fanbase.

also get ready for scalpers this is gonna be the best one yet.

and if they seriously run out of fucking cardboard there is some serious shit nintendo is pulling on their retarded fans.

>another Labo thread

requesting OC that isn't cuckchan reposts.

>>14334216

> it's why most of them still use dumbphones and Windows XP.

They use smartphones now, get your stereotypes updated.

>>14334113

is that it?

>>14334057

Would you rather a social justice western company funded by jews who bought out half the world's governments *cough* Micro$oft *cough* spy on your private life?

>>14334111

Well, pretty sure the controller will be protected by a screen of some sort.

It is a marketing ploy, so it is already shit because of it.

Make a fss about how shitty it is, to prevent normalfags from falling to it.

>>14334450

What whats wrog with diives and sunibee?

>>14331137

>>14331169

>no thumbnail, no idea what you are clicking on

>720p quality limit

>worsens your privacy because it still loads the video directly from youtube so you are getting tracked by two companies now instead of one

The hooktube meme needs to fucking die already. Pure placebo for idiots too dumb for youtube-dl.

>>14336472

sunibee is one note and focuses on ass exclusively, with common themes being puffed up giant anuses, and diives can't draw anything but the same hourglass body shape with overly large heads, using gigantic ass as a way to cover up his lines and proportions.

Essentially, one's overly focused on ass at the expense of everything else, and the other one's just a lazy ass who uses "artstyle" to hide their lack of training and practice outside the comfort zone with proportion.

It's not as appealing as it should be, since Sunibee focuses on the anus instead of the ass, and Diives just doesn't do proportion or detail work.

>>14336496

Oh hey an objective explanation instead of a passive aggressive personal story, thats a nice surprise.

Thanks!

>>14336534

He's right tho.

Comparison as a means to improve is admirable.

Comparison as a means to justify is deplorable.

>>14336534

People do that all the time, you'd be retarded not to think that.

>>14333653

Gamexplain just ripped Japanese videos and added the english audio to them because the official english videos (from the Labo webpage) were of a lower visual quality.

>>14331948

Found it for you Anon, it's in the Labo Overview trailer. The Toy-Con Garage mode, starts at 2:56. If you had seen the "falling man" from the original Labo unveiling trailer, that was done with this mode.

>>14337618

Except it doesn't. If you watched the actual fucking video about it, you would see that it only needs 2: 1 in the backpack, and 1 in the visor. All of the colour on the hands and feet just comes from coloured string.

>>14337595

Thanks Anon, looks far simpler than I would've liked, but hopefully it still maintains the versatility and power I would expect from a programming interface, and can be used to make things as complex as the piano or robot.

>>14331137

It's neat, but it doesn't change the fact that it's made of fucking cardboard. That shit is going to bed, crease, erode, and tear. The fact that it's primarily meant for kids just means these things will happen faster. They'll pull a cord too hard, accidentally spill something on them, or push down on something too forcefully. These things will barely last.

>>14337864

The patterns are freely available for download I think, so you can transfer them to new cardboard or other materials.

I assume you all graduated from elementary.

Why does this thread even exist, this shit is clearly aimed for the young kids, not even middle schoolers. Why do you even give a shit about toys, lmao

>>14338046

Some people identify as a nintoddler and are personally deeply offended when someone else doesnt worship everything their personal overlord does

>>14337941

That's the saving grace of Labo. Devs can distribute the designs for free, so they can make wagglan games without requiring $50 worth of gimmicky plastic controller. There's no excuse for actually paying for Nintendo Approved Cardboard, though.
