Like previous Labo kits, the Vehicle Kit comes as a bunch of sheets of cardboard, some stickers, string, grommets, and rubber bands. Following the instructions on the included software, kids pop out pre-cut pieces from the sheets and fold them into pieces that attach to Joy-Con controllers and come together as a submarine controller, a plane-style joystick, a pedal, a steering wheel, and a key. The Labo software includes basic games that use each of these new accessories, but let’s be honest: you really want to use these in the recently released Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. To play Mario Kart with the Labo, one simply inserts the blue Joy-Con controller into the pedal and the red Joy-Con controller into the key accessory. Then, slide the key into the center of the steering wheel and you’re ready to play. After that, it’s pretty similar to driving a car. Press down on the pedal to accelerate and turn with the steering wheel. To fire a shell or lightning bolt, press the button center of the wheel (where the Labo key is and the horn would be on a real car). You can use the Labo to play with you Switch using its included screen (which fits into the included screen stand) or when its connected to the big screen. Either way, it’s a more realistic experience that might just do the impossible: make Mario Kart even more fun. Buy Now $70
