Unboxing and early review of Nintendo’s Labo VR Kit, the games giant’s first virtual reality experience for the Switch console. We show you what’s in the box, make the VR Goggles and test out the games on offer, including our favourite – the Blaster – and more surreal projects like the bird and elephant. We also cover upcoming support for these toys, including Mario and Zelda action.
The full Labo VR Kit costs £70 in the UK and serves up all of the accessories and games, including the VR Plaza mini titles. Nintendo’s set is a great introduction to virtual reality titles for kids, and these admittedly simple launch games will be fun for families to play together – especially the multiplayer efforts.
We’ve gone hands on with all of the Labo accessories (and built quite a few of them now) and our early review is a thumbs up. Adults will tire of most of these titles quickly, while the quality of the visuals can’t match the likes of PSVR and Vive – understandably. However, building Nintendo’s gadgets is a fun activity in itself, while the expansion possibilities are endless.
We’ve already seen the official launch of the Mario and Zelda expansions, and more support for existing Nintendo titles are undoubtedly on the horizon. So which games would you like to see get the Labo VR makeover?

I really want this thing but, I am gonna use, honey.
Very recommended for Top Wing (for Bird)!
Legends of zelda will be make sense for a VR it will look like you we're living in anime
I have robo kit but Now I will order it
You know what’s funny your paying for garbage
The game has a Giant Enemy Crab?!
I would love it if Minercaft on the switch got VR support
Is there possible the VR able to attach with head strap? I want to play VR on Zelda but my arm will be tired if hold the VR unit oddly for long time.
Im getting the vr kit today!
How did you capture footage undocked? I can get my elgato to capture it fine undocked but it turns off the screen…..so that wont work
Everyone wants to know if there will be on switch internet browser and if we can watch porn with VR kit…
I can’t wait for tonight labo party
Plus…. oh how I’m so hoping for MK 8 deluxe VR 👍🏼👍🏼😍
I have the psvr, and of course it’s going to be no way near as good. We all know that. I’m sceptical about labo VR, but my curiosity is getting the better of me. I have to get it 😝 il go with the starter kit with the blaster to start off. And over here on Nintendo uk. It’s under 40 quid, can’t complain.
Almost bought this today but meh the more I thought about it, no headstrap etc put me off. I can see what they are doing plus it is aimed at the younger gamer. Hopefully one day there will be an actual full on Nintendo VR
Only haters hate nintendo.
Seems shit but great at the same time
I hope I get the vr kit. It looks SO FUCKING COOL!!!
Why is there so little comments but so many views?
Metroid Prime Trilogy VR!!!!!
It is incredible how nintendo did such a great thing out of cardboard!! pure innovation!! here I found it https://amzn.to/2Dblep1
It sounds interesting but cardboard doesn't last long it's going to break in a couple of weeks so what happens then
I'm so psyched for this Labo kit. Absolutely loved the variety kit and vehicle kit, and this one is sure to not disappoint!
I agree Lucas but it is a very interesting product
