All in all, I'm amazed. [Issue #40 – July/August 2019, p. 73]

The Labo VR kit is a decent bit of hardware and software, but it is in no way comparable to the more pricey VR headsets. Labo VR provides a cheap(er) option ideal for younger audiences, while also being a neat entry point for everyone else to experience a virtual space. If I haven’t made it clear already, the lack of support with no head strap for the goggles is a real let down. The games don’t usually last long, but a game session shouldn’t end from feeling too uncomfortable. Although you shouldn’t let that stop you from trying it out, it still has the Labo charm that Nintendo have put in each collection.

Al tough I found some surprise when I played with Labo VR, it still didn't make VR more interesting, and VR still can't make Labo's mini games more playable. Just like the previous Labos, building those toys is the only time that I felt happy. But for the kids, I think it's enough.

I got this full kit for a really nice bargain of just 18usd, being someone who enjoys DIY crafts I found the "making" part really enjoyable especially with the software that came with it had excellent instructional guides. I had low expectations for the VR part though, but as soon as I played the games, it blew me away, it actually is a legit VR experience and everything just works, all the card board contraptions are just amazingly responsive. The game card software got lots of content in it, lots of activities, games and crafts Only real downside is the resolution, things looks blurry, and the world immersion might not be same level as the proper VR consoles but for some weird reason it really doesn't hurt the experience at all, you can easily put it down and rest a bit since you are not strapped to it, you can easily pass the toy con over to another player. The amount of thought, ideas and engineering that was put into the toy cons and mini-games just adds a lot of value to it. My kids enjoy playing with it a lot, even more so than any switch games for kids I bought that costs much more. Definitely worth buying if you have a switch, and likes DIY crafts and kids to please.

Although most of the games feel very basic, they still have that trademark Nintendo charm, and I still can’t get over how ingeniously these cardboard sets come together. If you’ve been into the past Labo sets, the VR Kit is a no-brainer.

In the end, Labo VR is a promising new concept for Switch gamers. It could definitely use more and higher quality games at this point in time but there's no denying that it works well and opens the doors to more unique experiences on the Switch.

Like the other kits, the Labo VR Kit does so many great things outside of its more standard game experiences, and it's really about what you do with the technology.

Nintendo Labo Toy-Con 04: VR Kit is ingeniously designed. The synthesis of physical cardboard Toy-Con with commensurate digital software creates a tactile and fun virtual reality experience that feels decidedly Nintendo. However, once the initial magic of Labo VR wears off, all that is left is a shallow, oddly assembled lot of minigames that won’t last more than an afternoon.

The biggest problem is the low resolution screen with a 60 Hertz refresh rate, which produces nasty blurs on head movements.

Got the base set, Labo VR goggle with Blaster for under $40 and wow. I am very impressed. Building the googles and blaster took around 3.5 hours, then, I loaded up the Alien Blaster game and I must say, it's friggen FANTASTIC! It's like a theme park ride at Disneyland (Toy Story Mania anyone?) with just the right amount of VR to impress and not cause nausea. The game design is brilliant and deeper than expected. A big arcade game where you will go back again and again to go for high score (and the scoring system is pretty clever! Clue: multiple hits at once increases that score!). Oh, and the gun is great! You truly feel like you are shooting a cannon gun with clever kickback, **** the gun, etc. This game easily worth $40, especially as they are adding VR support for Mario Odyssey and Zelda Breath of the Wild. Can only imagine what other games will get VR treatments. Let's hope for some DLC for these games. Ill easily pay $10 more for Blaster levels. Also, use a swivel chair to play! Just to turn around 360 (not to roll forward or backward!) And, you can create cool VR games with tools within! Nintendo, you MUST MUST add on the ability for others to share these levels! If you do this you will sell millions of these! Well done, I love this base set and will spend at least $20 more for the Bird and Wind Pedal kits!
