Weird Nintendo never went away

Nintendo has been playing it safe of late, whether it's the conservative nature of its Switch successor or the squeaky-clean image presented in its museum. As the company has expanded its ambitions, it's done so while largely trying to avoid risk, which can seem at odds with the playful Nintendo that brought us the likes of the DS and Labo. But that weird Nintendo still exists - and I have a strange Talking Flower on my bookshelf to prove it.

Nintendo's most recent release isn't a console or a game, but a toy.
