Nintendo Labo and its Toy Con Garage feature allows you to do more than just play the games that or on there. We always knew that people were going to use the cardboard in new and innovative ways, but I don’t think that anyone expected someone to be able to control their wheelchair with it.

Twitter user @Takeru_FTX shared this video, and we think that it’s absolutely incredible…

世界初！ニンテンドーラボで操作する電動車椅子。移動するための乗り物車椅子だけど、@origamicat さんの手にかかると一瞬にして「オレのバイク」に！こうなってくると車椅子ユーザーで良かったとさえ思えてきます。やっぱヒーローやな！オリィさん！任天堂×オリィ研究所 pic.twitter.com/PAuvPt2FPk
