Nintendo Labo

Nintendo has published a lengthy trailer highlighting features in the new Nintendo Labo – Toy Con 03: Vehicle Kit. It shows off included games (including the mysterious world in Adventure), Circuit, Paint Studio, and more.

Here’s the full rundown of features from Nintendo:

Beginning in September, Nintendo will be hosting a series of workshops across the United States to encourage kids to let their DIY talents run wild with Nintendo Labo. These hourlong workshops provide “interactive activities using the Nintendo Labo: Variety Kit, as well as on-site ‘lab assistants,’ experts in white lab coats and fun colored shirts who will help attendees learn the ins and outs of Nintendo Labo.”

Workshops will be held in the following areas:

Deemo

Mario Kart 8 Deluxe was the first Nintendo game to be updated with Nintendo Labo support. As for third-party titles, we’re starting to finally see some movement on that front.

Nintendo’s Japanese website reveals that Deemo will soon be compatible with Labo. You’ll be able to use the Toy-Con Piano to play some of the songs with an update scheduled for October.

Mario Kart 8 Deluxe

Nintendo has confirmed more Labo compatibility for Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. When the Vehicle Kit lands next month, you’ll be able to use it in the racer.

Here’s a trailer:

With the Nintendo Labo: Vehicle Kit featured at Gamescom, more information is emerging about the upcoming project. Kotaku got a hands-on look at the new kit, and has shared videos and new information about it, referring to the digital component as a “full-fledged video game.”

Excerpts from the article have been shared below:

Nintendo Labo is back on the road with a new kit. The Labo Vehicle Kit puts you behind the wheel of a mean modifying machine and also puts your wallet back in peril. With Labo sales firing on all cylinders and a new kit just around the corner, what does this mean for the future of Nintendo’s cardboard collaboration?

Nintendo revealed what’s next for Nintendo Labo a couple of days ago. On September 14, Switch owners can get their hands on the new Vehicle Kit.

We have several images showing off the Vehicle Kit below. Hit up the gallery for a few screenshots and a variety of promotional images.

Amazon has opened up pre-orders for the new Nintendo Labo: Vehicle Kit. You can reserve it here.

We should also mention that Best Buy has corrected its listing from last night. The Vehicle Kit can be pre-ordered at the retailer here for $69.99, rather than the incorrect $79.99 price point from yesterday.

Announced earlier tonight, the next Nintendo Labo product is the Vehicle Kit. Best Buy taking pre-orders here.

While you can pre-order, keep in mind that Best Buy is listing the package for $79.99. We heard from Nintendo that it will actually be $69.99. If you lock that pre-order in, you may need to ask Best Buy to reduce the price, or wait until it’s done automatically.

Thanks to polan18 for the tip.
