LEGO and Nintendo Join Forces for Next Console

Nintendo's Latest Announcement: A LEGO Game Boy!

Nintendo has teamed up with LEGO again, this time unveiling a LEGO Game Boy set! Launching October 2025, it follows the successful LEGO NES release.

While exciting for fans of both brands, the announcement on X (formerly Twitter) sparked a flurry of comments about the anticipated Nintendo Switch 2. Many joked that the LEGO Game Boy was a premature reveal of the new console.

Although details on the Switch 2 remain scarce, Nintendo President Furukawa confirmed in May 2024 that a successor announcement would be made within the current fiscal year (ending March). Fans will have to wait a bit longer for that news.

Pricing for the LEGO Game Boy hasn't been revealed yet, but further information is promised in the coming weeks or months.

Past Nintendo and LEGO Collaborations

Beyond the NES, Nintendo and LEGO have previously collaborated on sets featuring beloved characters from franchises like Super Mario, Animal Crossing, and The Legend of Zelda (TLZ).

Last May 2024 saw the release of a 2,500-piece LEGO set depicting the Great Deku Tree from Ocarina of Time and Breath of the Wild. This impressive set, featuring Princess Zelda and the Master Sword, retails for $299.99 USD.

Two months later, a Super Mario World set featuring Mario riding Yoshi was launched. This unique set, showcasing the in-game sprites and featuring a moving crank mechanism, is priced at $129.99 USD.
