It really feels like Nintendo Labo just came and went with little more than a whimper.

Although Nintendo created a Vehicle Kit to help make your races in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe feel just a tad more realistic, YouTube creator DanCreator / Cardboard Crafts has taken the concept further by creating a life-size kart made out of cardboard. The coolest part? By using rubber rings and utilising a bit of suction, he's even made the kart 'hover' across the ground, just like the anti-grav sections in the game!

In addition, he's also created a full-sized Mario Kart 8 themed arcade machine, which essentially looks like a souped-up version of the Nintendo Labo Vehicle Kit, complete with a chair with built-in speakers, lights, and an awesome wheel/pedal combo.

It's certainly a novel way to enjoy the recently released Booster Course Pass Wave 1 courses, that's for sure!
