Trombone Champ was announced and release during the last Nintendo Direct. I bought it and, oops. it's genuinely one of the funniest video games I've ever played!!!! Also: it's VERY fun!!
One smart thing it did was have a number of control options: tilting the controller. using the analog stick, and most importantly, using the IR camera to let you move your hand back and forth to play. It works... well enough, but is super fun to do. But it left me wanting...
They should have released a Labo Trombone to go alongside Trombone Champ.
Think about it, it'd be easy to implement! You'd just need to put the right Joy-Con into the slide-y bit, have some of those reflective stickers on the non-slide-y bit, and as you slide it back and forth, is uses the stickers to determine the depth and input the pitch of the trombone. The Left Joy-Con could be used on the handle-bit and had the shoulder button operate as the "toot" button.
They could have sold Labo Trombone kits online as a separate, optional purchase that I'd absolutely have picked up. Or maybe they could have supplied the plans for it online and had users supply their own cardboard.
Anyway, I think they should have made a Labo Trombone for Trombone Champ. What do you think? Do you need more cardboard in your life?
