Nintendo Labo Reported To Get One Final Kit Before The Closing Of The Cardboard Accessory Line

While players are consumed by the first-party armada that arrived to Nintendo Switch already reaching just the halfway mark of its lifespan, there is still plenty that the Japanese firm is planning to tackle for the second act. In one statement from Nintendo CEO Shuntaro Furukawa, “there’s much more that can still be done in the coming years.”

In addition to the comment, Furukawa also went on to elaborate that the plans Nintendo is to initiate for future releases will be a mixed bag. In that, the company will be offering unique intellectual properties while its billboard franchises are still present for the platform and what is to come beyond the Nintendo Switch, of course.

But not to forget, the Nintendo Labo is still an active entity for the firm. While dormant since the release of the Toy-Con 04 VR Headset, Nintendo has yet to bring more life to the cardboard accessory line. When worried about the future of the brand through a change of the website, Nintendo Insider Emily Roger comments there is one more reveal to be made before cutting life support.

The Nintendo Labo while unique in its approach does not directly appeal to the entire user base for Nintendo Switch. Although the platform is roughly 80 million units strong in just over four years, the Nintendo Switch remains to overshadow Nintendo Labo immensely. Not to mention the arbitrarily high cost for a cardboard kit, the line is not entirely appealing to its consumers.

The most recent addition for Nintendo Labo reverts back to April 2019 where Nintendo revealed a special suite for the Toy-Con 04 VR Headset. In the announcement, both Super Mario Odyssey and The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild received dedicated support for the accessory. You can read the full report by heading here.
