1
00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:07,520
so the lava reviews are in and everyone seems to think it's just

2
00:00:05,279 --> 00:00:11,599
folding some cardboard but you know i don't blame the people

3
00:00:09,920 --> 00:00:16,480
nintendo's marketing team over the last 10 years has been hit or miss to say the

4
00:00:13,759 --> 00:00:23,119
least consider the following we fit and we fit plus combined sold over 43.8

5
00:00:20,560 --> 00:00:27,840
million units that's almost half the total number of wii consoles even though

6
00:00:25,039 --> 00:00:32,399
it was a mold breaking accessory for a first of its kind console everyone

7
00:00:29,760 --> 00:00:39,040
understood what it was and they wanted it then the wii u was a complete

8
00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:40,719
flop because basically no one knew

9
00:00:39,040 --> 00:00:45,760
what it even was months after it came out i invited some

10
00:00:42,640 --> 00:00:48,079
friends over and not a single one of

11
00:00:45,760 --> 00:00:53,199
them understood that it was a new console before they arrived after seeing

12
00:00:50,719 --> 00:00:58,800
the ads most of them thought it was just a tablet accessory and these guys are

13
00:00:55,760 --> 00:01:01,920
gamers and tech heads i guess that's why

14
00:00:58,800 --> 00:01:04,400
it only sold 13.6 million units then

15
00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:10,240
there's the switch and instant sensation so naturally the roller coaster

16
00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:12,960
department was due for a flop and labo

17
00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:18,000
well i don't have sales numbers yet but i can make an educated guess that

18
00:01:14,479 --> 00:01:19,920
they're not very high now to be fair it

19
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:23,920
is a bit more niche than something like a wii fit naturally but i believe the

20
00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:27,520
main problem is that this guy's just pretty misunderstood if you want to know

21
00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:31,439
what it's really about keep watching

22
00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:37,360
today's video is brought to you by mac weldon mac weldon makes great underwear

23
00:01:34,159 --> 00:01:39,280
t-shirts socks wallets and more they

24
00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:44,860
believe in simple shopping and if you use code tech tips you'll get 20

25
00:01:42,159 --> 00:01:52,840
off through the link below

26
00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:58,560
so you got me you do start with folding

27
00:01:57,040 --> 00:02:02,799
cardboard but the cardboard folding experience is just teaching you the

28
00:02:00,399 --> 00:02:06,399
basics in a fun creative and engaging way it's not what the whole experience

29
00:02:04,399 --> 00:02:10,959
is about it's like the first mission in a game and i must add with the best

30
00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:14,720
instructions of any project i've ever built hands down you'll see them through

31
00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:19,040
this whole explanation the first labo project you build is a little bug car it

32
00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:23,040
teaches you that vibration can make things move that you can manually

33
00:02:20,879 --> 00:02:28,560
control the vibration frequency and introduces the concept that you can see

34
00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:30,000
things through the ir camera especially

35
00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:33,440
ir trackers the fishing game teaches you about the

36
00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:37,440
physical feedback of generating resistance through the use of rubber

37
00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:42,239
bands and the audible feedback from the clicking noise generated by a cardboard

38
00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:46,400
tab being hit by the reel the motorbike teaches you about the use of gyroscopes

39
00:02:44,239 --> 00:02:51,040
and advances on the ideas of resistance and feedback with the throttle the house

40
00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:54,800
teaches you intermediate ir camera use how it responds to ir stickers and how

41
00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:59,760
the stickers getting closer to the camera or turning away from the camera

42
00:02:56,720 --> 00:03:01,920
etc can be registered and responded to

43
00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:06,159
and finally the piano shows you that you can take these concepts much further

44
00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:10,239
than you may have previously thought that you're not just limited to one or

45
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:14,879
two ir stickers or a couple basic interactions all of this is fun in games

46
00:03:12,879 --> 00:03:18,720
literally and depending on the age range of the person enjoying it finishing

47
00:03:16,640 --> 00:03:24,560
these projects may be the satisfying conclusion to a fun solo or group

48
00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:25,840
project with great pacing but labo

49
00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:32,159
is really about wait for it the lab part of the name it's about

50
00:03:29,920 --> 00:03:36,799
doing things yourself and experimenting like in a lab and you do this through

51
00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:41,040
toycon garage which allows you to create your own toy con projects through the

52
00:03:38,879 --> 00:03:45,599
use of a basic programming interface that lets you tap into the power of the

53
00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:50,159
switch and its multi-functional joy-cons that you just spent the entire cardboard

54
00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:55,440
folding experience learning about and the power is real ariana grande jimmy

55
00:03:52,879 --> 00:04:01,439
fallon and the roots did an astonishing performance of no tears left to cry with

56
00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:05,599
just nintendo labo instruments we left out audio for copyright reasons but it

57
00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:10,159
sounds incredible better than the original in my opinion go watch it now

58
00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:14,959
and then come back then we have japanese researcher and

59
00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:19,040
inventor kintaro yoshifuji who modded a 13 year old boy's electric wheelchair so

60
00:04:17,199 --> 00:04:23,759
it could be driven around with the motorcycle toy instead of the normal

61
00:04:21,519 --> 00:04:28,000
joystick for just some awesomely wholesome fun but you don't

62
00:04:25,919 --> 00:04:31,919
have to go that crazy with it either i found on youtube there's people who have

63
00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:36,240
recreated game and watch which is really cool there's also a bunch of different

64
00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:39,600
people making like vending machines and one that i really like is you take a

65
00:04:37,840 --> 00:04:42,960
container have the ir camera looking down into the container and then just

66
00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:46,560
have it count how many things passes by so you can throw things and see if it

67
00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:51,280
actually goes in and keep score it's cool so in conclusion then should you

68
00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:54,960
buy a labo whether it's for a little kid you know or a big kid you are i think

69
00:04:53,759 --> 00:05:00,560
brad on twitter actually put a little bit better than i can yes

70
00:04:57,360 --> 00:05:02,800
but not for the folding cardboard it's

71
00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:06,400
about the experience as a whole it's about building something with others and

72
00:05:04,639 --> 00:05:11,120
empowering you to play with your own creation it works on its own but it's

73
00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:16,479
best enjoyed as a social creative thing like building ikea furniture except fun

74
00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:20,080
