    demasiado caro , la idea es muy buena pero el material y el precio no, debería de valer como mucho 10 euros o dolares mas me parece caro y esta a 80 euros en algunos casos

    Several good mini games: motosport, tomagochi, mini piano and fishing. Unfortunately they get bored quickly

    The Toy-Cons are very fun to build, which is the main appeal. The games use amazing tech from the Joy-Cons and are fun for a while. A good buy for me.

    A bit overpriced for what you get (ok there is more material, but on the other hand the mini-games should be less expansive): overall, the DIY / small games experience is fun with kids.

    This kit is really cool! I would not recommend buying another Labo Kits beside this one and the VR Kit. The building aspect is the highlight of the Nintendo Labos! So if you have the extra cast then consider buying the first Labo Kit!

    Quite interesting and such a great idea.

    Uses all the features of the joy-cons and explains them in a friendly way!
    But usually left unused after a couple of weeks...

    Not every Toy-Con is a masterpiece, but the variety of the Variety Kit makes the whole set absolutely worth your consideration. [Issue #34 – July/August 2018, p. 69]

    A solid introduction to the world of Switch-powered cardboard craftables. It may get a bit tedious and repetitive during its laborious building and simplistic play sessions, but the creative freedom it allows once you dig a little deeper is truly something extraordinary.

    What Nintendo Labo achieves is, at its core, exactly what Wii Sports achieved for the Wii in 2006. It encourages non-video gamers the chance to get involved with something their children love. It brings family to the fore, allows for natural teamwork to evolve and both nurtures and inspires creativity. And quite frankly, that’s hard to put a price on.
