According to a Bloomberg report, Rengo is supplying cardboard for Nintendo Labo. Other companies in the supply chain are also said to be contributing to the new Switch initiative.

Bloomberg mentions that “Rengo is focused on Japan production for Nintendo”. However, Labo will only be a small part of the company’s overall sales.

Rengo was one of the first companies in Japan to produce corrugated cardboard. With 35 manufacturing plants in Japan and roughly 55 factories in Asia and the U.S., Rengo is the third-largest maker of containers and packaging products in Japan by sales.

Nintendo has published a big developer interview with some of the key team members behind Nintendo Labo. Nintendo Labo director Tsubasa Sakaguchi, Switch director / Nintendo Labo producer Kouichi Kawamoto, and Nintendo Labo hardware lead Mr. Ogasawara were brought in for the discussion.

The interview is really worth a read, as it covers how Nintendo Labo came to be, the struggles the team encountered (including disastrous consumer tests), changes that were made, and a whole lot more. Also, as a sidenote, we have confirmation that Tsubasa Sakaguchi moved on from Splatoon as one of the original game’s co-directors to Nintendo Labo.
