You know Nintendo, right?
Then youll probably be aware ofthe Labo, a set of cardboard add-ons that transform the companys Switch console.
Well, today the company announced the next instalment in the series: the VR kit.
Now long time readers might rememberourbattleswith Nintendo over the Labo, but this isnt another instalment of that.
Not this time at least.
When I flicked through the press pictures that accompanied the launch announcement, I was horror struck.
I peed a little.
It’s free, every week, in your inbox.
Look, this isnt exactly free from terror its a child screaming into a cardboard, gun-shaped tube.
But Ive wasted too many pound coins in arcades to feel particularly shook by this.
Basically, this is exactly what parents think of when you tell them about VR.
Think about this thing in action.
You come back home after a hard days work, call your childs name, and… nothing.
All you hear is a dull, steady thud.
You go up the creaking stairs.
The thuds are getting louder.
You head to their room, the thuds are louder still.
Then, you find them sitting there in darkness, flapping.
Flapping the weird foot thing.
Im gonna be sick.
The pose, the body tension, the angle, the lack of shoes everything about this screams pervert.
What sort of horror movie shit is this?
Look, elephants areendangered.
Would we think this was okay if that was a humans head being held?
I, for one, think not.
If youd like to get the Labo VR kit, its being released on April 12.
