Nintendo has revealed their initial plans for Nintendo Labo, and we nkow what kits will be there on launch day. Could there be more in the works beyond those kits? Might we see Labo kits tied into other Switch games from Nintendo? Here's what Reggie Fils-Aime had to say.

“Can [the Toy-Cons] be incorporated into other forms of gameplay? Certainly. But right now we think if we effectively communicate the power of the idea with Nintendo Labo [and] really enable players to make their creations, personalize them, and enjoy the [inherent] gameplay experiences . . . We think that’s going to be a great way to start and then progress down the path.”

Reggie was also asked about the potential for third parties to have access to Labo kits for their own games.

“While there’s nothing to announce today, certainly if we’re successful with Labo, it can create future opportunities.”
