Dolla dolla bill y’all!
While not everyone is keen on the idea of Nintendo Labo, that isn’t stopping Nintendo from going all in on the concept. My biggest concern was the price of the whole thing, which does seem a bit steep for cardboard accessories (putting aside that it comes with a game). Not doing itself any favors, Nintendo is going to be releasing some official “Labo” themed masking tape in Japan for when the product launches.
Coming in at 540 yen (or roughly $5) each, this isn’t the most exorbitant pricing I’ve seen for masking tape. Then again, with only two rolls per box, that could end up getting pricey if you intend to only use Nintendo’s branded adhesive. I do like some of those designs, though.
