Blog2020 ≫ What do I do with Nintendo Labo now?

Remember Nintendo Labo1? Awesome idea, build some toys that are new ways of interacting with the Nintendo Switch. The boys built these things, and they played with them. For about five minutes. I'm sure it was £80 when it was new. I think I'm going to put it in the recycling now though. Anyone out there got any use for assembled Nintendo Labo?

I might try Freecycle, though I have had a mixed response so far. The first time (recently) I used it I offered a stereo, and it was snapped up, and the lady emailed me after to say she'd got it up and running and connected her record deck as intended. So all good. Second time round I had several bites at one of the boys bikes that has been outgrown. First person who agreed to collect it then went quiet and stopped resopnding to emails. Second person arranged to collect but then changed their mind. All politely and let me know, so fine. Third person has arranged to collect tomorrow. I'll wait and see if they do before offering this Nintendo stuff...

Nice out today, but very windy. We did some litter picking on the beach before school pick up, but the beach was quite clear anyway.
