FOCUS ON ME
[Update: You can find the video below.]
I’m not sure why Ariana Grande keeps randomly appearing on Destructoid, but the lady has a penchant for promoting herself through gaming. Tonight will be no different, as Ariana Grande is set to appear on “The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon” to perform her latest single using Nintendo Labo. Yup, she and The Roots will be using cardboard instruments to recreate a pop song; Nintendo Labo is seriously diverse.
Fallon, speaking to IGN UK, said, “We made a full-on band using Labo. I love that Nintendo does stuff like this. I mean what is this? Why would you even think of this? Only they could do something like this. We met with Nintendo and they showed us a bunch of cool cardboard things that you can make. We used the Variety Kit and we made a keyboard. We asked if we could make other cardboard things like guitars and they [Nintendo] said, ‘Of course! We’ll help you do it.'”
As much as I don’t care for pop music, I’m pretty damn interested to hear what this sounds like. I’m not sure I’ll catch this when it airs, but the glory of the internet age should have it uploaded shortly after. Honestly, now I kind of want Nintendo to make a Labo guitar.
