8 Bold Predictions For PS4, Xbox One & Nintendo Switch In 2018

8. Labo Absolutely Destroys PS VR Unit Sales

Within just two minutes of showreel footage, the Nintendo Labo did what Sony haven't been able to since October last year: Build hype for a new console accessory.

And how? By - and stand by, because it's a wild one - having games you want to play.

I know... crazy.

All it took was one glimpse of a cardboard piano or DIY fishing rod, and millions of people were tuning in overnight just to see what the fuss was about. PS VR on the other hand, doesn't have a single recommendable, "You should buy the headset to play THIS, and it works best in VR" game.

Not one.

Of course, the actual price of a PS VR headset is around four times that of either Labo Kit, but in units shipped, the Labo already has a demonstrable rush of interest and a "Can't wait to play that!" feel - something that was never attached to Sony's kit before, during or after launch.
