But what comes next? What does it mean? I came up with questions, and Alex did too. After he helped me review Nintendo Labo and Labo VR Kit, Nintendo invited him to interview Sakaguchi as well, so I brought him along for his first interview experience. I wrote up my own questions, and he wrote up his. These are the things we asked, and what we learned.

Even though the Labo VR Kit was the fourth version of Labo, Sakaguchi insists it was always there from the get-go. "We actually had it all planned out from the very beginning ... even in the [original] announcement video, if you look at it, everything but the VR goggles is included."
