Everyone wants to lose themselves in virtual reality, right? The problem is that many virtual reality headsets are very expensive and not particularly accessible for family players. The Nintendo Labo VR Goggles and Blaster that make up the VR Starter Set is different. You simply assemble it yourself from the cardboard cut-out parts before diving into some immersive VR games. The set offers up its own selection of VR mini-games plus you can use it to try out other games that offer virtual reality support such as TheLegendofZelda:Breath of the Wild and Super Mario Odyssey. Whatever you choose, it offers a ton of fun whether you’re blasting your way through an alien invasion or exploring a strange new world. Kids will love putting together the unit and the whole family will have a great time with the results.

Ordinarily priced at $40, Best Buy has the VR Starter Kit at half price for only $20.

Sony may have just dropped its biggest hint yet that a true PlayStation handheld is on the way. In a recently published Q&A with investors, Sony Interactive Entertainment CEO Hideaki Nishino said the company's next-generation PlayStation strategy will deliver a seamless gaming experience that extends "beyond the living room." While he never explicitly mentioned a handheld, the comments have once again fueled speculation that Sony is preparing to return to the portable gaming space with the PS6 generation.
