Nintendo Labo: the internet reacts
Play your card right.
Nintendo surprised the world last night with its announcement of Nintendo Labo, a DIY cardboard accessory range for Nintendo Switch. So, of course, the world promptly took to Twitter to record its hot takes and jokes.
For a more high-brow read, Martin just wrote about how Nintendo Labo is actually an ingenious nod back to Nintendo's past.
For memes, look no further to find our pick of the best:

I think Nintendo Labo will be a massive success. There will be as many Nintendo consoles in cardboard boxes as there was on store shelves after the Wii U launch

As is often the case with Nintendo, their most innovative ideas also reach back into their past. They were producing foldable cardboard toys over 40 years ago! https://t.co/bFfkpd9YRU pic.twitter.com/m35mOy8JQx
