Here we are at the end of yet another week, finally winding down and getting ready to enjoy some of those video game thingies we seem to talk about so much. As always, team Nintendo Life has gathered around to discuss our gaming plans for the weekend, and we’d love for you to get involved in the comments and poll sections below. Enjoy!<\/em><\/p>\n

Amazingly, for the second weekend in a row, I’ll be spending my time actually interacting with other, real human beings. I have a friend staying over for a while, so I imagine any gaming time will naturally be spent playing the Switch’s top multiplayer hits.<\/p>\n

For us, that’s usually things like Mario Kart 8 Deluxe<\/a><\/strong> and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate<\/a><\/strong>. Sure, they’re the boring choices, but sometimes you just can’t beat Nintendo’s biggest and brightest.

This weekend, time permitting, I\u2019ll be diving into the Labo VR Kit<\/a><\/strong>. News that Super Mario Odyssey<\/a><\/strong> and Zelda: Breath of the Wild<\/a><\/strong> are getting some manner of VR update was the tipping point and I pre-ordered a game for the first time in\u2026 20 years?! The last thing I remember pre-ordering is Donkey Kong 64<\/a><\/strong> with the Expansion Pak.<\/p>\n

I went for the smaller basic Blaster kit because I lack both the space to store all that cardboard and also the time to build it. I\u2019m very interested to investigate how the VR experience holds up given Switch\u2019s tech limitations. Would it be possible to see an adapted port of Ubisoft\u2019s Star Trek: Bridge Crew<\/strong> on Switch, for example? Before this Breath of the Wild update I\u2019d have said \u2018no way\u2019, but I\u2019m starting to wonder\u2026<\/p>\n
