This number will only increase as more creators are brought into the fold.
Nintendo’s cardboard creative system Labo is out, and people are already making some cool things with it.
Labo is currently available in two standard variations, the Robot and Variety kits which feature premade Toy-Cons and games. Both also come with the Toy-Con garage, which allows users to create their own fun, and the Nintendo Labo Subreddit, as well as users on Twitter, have not disappointed.
Over on YouTube, one user has made a Game and Watch approximation by placing a sheet with cutouts over the Switch’s screen.
Ayatross on Twitter has turned Labo into a password safe using the touch screen controls.
Some handy programming allowed Ql49m to make a Tic Tac Toe game.
While Jumpinggreen also used a paper overlay to create a different Game and Watch game.
Hitokage22 recreated the Sans boss fight from Undertail using motion controls.
For a more practical approach, Leaving Luck used the IR sensor to count how many playing cards were thrown into a hat.
Or, if you’re looking to communicate some of the world’s oldest memes with alarm clock style, Alayna Butterfly has you covered with this creation.
The piano Toy-Con which comes bundled with the variety kit has even been used by Twitter user Geniway to recreate the Calamari Inkantation song from the original Splatoon.
If pianos aren’t your speed, Dami Lee made a guitar for all the cardboard rockstars out there.
I tried to program guitar chords to Rainbow Connection on Toy-Con Garage, Nintendo Labo’s coding platform. It took every single one of my brain cells to do it but it was worth it https://t.co/c8ItmtwABs

Over on Reddit, Seemebreakthis combined the piano and RC car Toy-Cons to make this dancing bug.
Dancing Bug – my paltry first attempt with the LABO Garage from r/nintendolabo
Whereas NintendoFaan just tried to make as much noise as possible using the piano and the HD Rumble of 7 Joy-Cons all acting as one.
If this doesn’t impress you there are still 8 Labo Toy-Con from Nintendo’s original Labo reveal trailer that we are yet to see and you can get our impressions in the latest Nintendo Voice Chat or check out a review of the first 15 hours with Nintendo Labo.
