This information comes from Nintendo president Shuntaro Furukawa…
We also released a fourth Nintendo Labo kit this month, Nintendo Labo Toy-Con 04: VR Kit. Users can construct five Toy-Con from cardboard parts, including a Toy-Con Blaster, Toy-Con Camera, and Toy-Con Bird, then pair them with Nintendo Switch to enjoy unique experiences in a VR space through their body movements. For example, while controlling the in-game action, users can press a pedal with their foot to create and feel an actual breeze. This is probably different from the image you have of a VR device. Users can also create their own games in VR.
The three Nintendo Labo kits released last year received an Innovation Award at the Game Developers Conference in the US this March, and a BAFTA Family award and Game Innovation award at this month’s British Academy Games Awards. The product has been recognized for its innovation in many countries and we are exceptionally proud of these achievements. Nintendo Labo is even being used in schools, and we are continuing to pursue sales so that even more
consumers can enjoy the series.
