WSYM — Drew Bennett from Benspark Family Adventures and a part of the 2019 Toy Insider Parents joins FOX 47 News to share some thoughts on some video game related gifts that you may want to add to your holiday gift list this year.
The Nintendo Switch is one of the hottest gaming systems right now. It is portable, fun and can do a ton of different things. One of the things that it can do is connect in with the Nintendo Labo system.
The Nintendo Labo system are toys that you can build to play with along with your Nintendo Switch.
One of the Nintendo Labo sets that Drew shared was the Steering Column. This steering column allows you to actually drive a vehicle on a game that you receive with the kit but also with Mario Kart 8.
These kits work with the Joycons that are on the Nintendo Switch. You add in one of the Joycons from your Nintendo Switch into the kit itself and it is this that allows you to connect into the game itself.
Nintendo Labo is something that you can build with your kids. You start with a sheet of cardboard and you end up building a 3D model that is usable within the game too.
As well as a car there is a submarine and an airplane.
There is a bit of coding that kids can learn that will also allow them to create their own games.
The Nintendo Labo system costs $69 depending on the set.
There is also a variety pack that you can get that will allow you to create a fishing pole that actually works.
This is a system that really brings families together to build and create something that you will use in your own gaming adventures.
Some of the kits that are available include:
