Nintendo Labo VR is a fresh take on virtual reality gaming. VR can be isolating, but Labo VR is centered around quick, shareable games designed to be played with friends. You can fly like a bird with the wind blowing in your face, paint with an elephant’s trunk, and take photos of underwater fish. There’s also Toy-Con Garage VR, which lets you code and play your own VR games. Labo VR will work with Nintendo Switch games like Mario Odyssey and The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, which makes Nintendo’s belated foray into VR well worth the wait.

What Switch games would you want to play in VR?
Now I can play Portable VR games in the rain! 😀
I buy this but cardboard is so fragile I'm worried about breaking it, plus its too expensive.
My mom put it in the garage
Just picked up the blaster
"You're basically sticking the Switch's 720P screen on your face, plus the resolution is not great and the display is a little blurry."
Are you not just saying the same thing 3 times?
She's beautiful
The labor vr has so much potential with 3rd party games, I really hope Nintendo goes that route
"What VR should be"? I want my hands be free for interactions in games. I want to play the same time as my co players. So what is it all about this? Shouldn't this video be tagged as payd or advertising?
like this chick
MATPAT PREDICTED THAT AGES AGO!
1:30 holding it up all the time?
that's not how VR should be… it's not how it is anyway …
… at 790p ….
the headaches …
Awesome video. I feel like you’ve really understood what Nintendo is doing here. This is a unique experience that blends physical and digital. Very cool.
OK, but seriously, real talk, am I the only one who started swearing profusely and cursing the heavens when she said that you could not play Pokémon snap with the camera?
However if I think about this, Pokémon go has a photography AR experience. if Pokémon let’s go got some DLC, they could make a VR experience with the camera by adding a photography feature to the games that already exist and will exist in the future on this platform
Great review
So VR must be mimicky? I am pretty happy with my vive and beat saber + elite dangerous. This is not proper VR.
I own a switch and I am pretty happy with it without VR.
Labo VR insults and hurts the VR industry. Please try another VR device and dont let this be your idea of VR…
cardboard nonsense.
Dami is HAWT
a cardboard and rubberband vr headset. guess nintendo had losses with their last console
"What virtual reality should be"
Fragile. Disposable. Low resolution. No position tracking. Requires you to hold it to your face. No full length games. Less powerful than a cell phone.
It sounds like The Verge thinks that virtual reality "should" be worse. I hope they enjoy playing Zelda one handed.
Bwaaaahahahaha only Switch users would consider this VR!
I would love to play some Labo with Dami & Allegra.
Over priced piece of carbord
More Dami Lee is better!
Resolution isn’t great and the screen is a little blurry….? That seems a bit redundant but were you speaking to the art design of the games or using layman speak so people might understand what the not great resolution translates to?
“They’re turn-based games meant to be played with a friend.”
I’ll see myself out.
Nintendo VR is so much fun! Everyone should try this!
This is way much better then any htc or oculus vr
