Nintendo Labo Explained: 9 Things You Need To Know

9. Price, Release Date & What You're Buying

First thing's first: The Labo will set you back $70 (£51), and will ship in two configurations: The Variety Kit (comprising the piano, fishing game, motorbike, house and two remote control bugs), and the Robot Kit (that big backpack-mech). That's $70 each, but for the former you're getting all the software for each game, the requisite cardboard nets/string/assembly materials and some stickers to customise everything.

At time of writing, the jury's out on what's inside the Robot Kit, but being we can see the child in the video using a red Joy-Con in each hand (with a left Joy-Con on his head and a final inside the backpack), the kit might come with two more controllers, or at least one more, depending on how its features work.

As for the release date, Labo is set to drop on the 20th of April in the US, and the 27th in the UK.
