LEGO Unveils Iconic Nintendo Game Boy Set for Fans and Collectors Alike
Hey everyone, I just came across some incredibly nostalgic and exciting news that’s going to hit every retro gaming fan right in the feels — LEGO is releasing a near life-sized replica of the original Nintendo Game Boy. Yes, you heard that right. Two of the most iconic brands in the world — LEGO and Nintendo — have teamed up once again, and this time, they’re honoring one of the most beloved handheld consoles in video game history.
The LEGO Game Boy model building set is something straight out of our childhood dreams. Modeled at almost a 1:1 scale, it’s a faithful recreation of the Game Boy we all remember — complete with the signature A and B buttons, the +Control Pad, SELECT and START buttons, and even details like the volume dial and contrast adjustment. I mean, it’s not just a display piece, it’s practically a museum-worthy tribute to an era that defined mobile gaming.

What really blew me away is the thought that’s gone into this 421-piece build. It’s not just about the console’s exterior — it even includes a Game Pak slot and comes with interchangeable, brick-built versions of two classic titles: The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening and Super Mario Land . Plus, you can customize the screen display too, switching between the classic Nintendo start-up screen or a scene from one of those included Game Paks. How cool is that?
Now, this set isn’t just for die-hard LEGO fans or seasoned builders. It’s designed with everyone in mind, whether you’re a seasoned AFOL (Adult Fan of LEGO) or just someone who loves a creative challenge. With step-by-step instructions, it’s super beginner-friendly too — so even if you’ve never tackled a LEGO build before, this one’s totally approachable.
Pre-orders for the LEGO Game Boy are officially live as of July 24, 2025, and it hits store shelves on October 1. You’ll be able to grab it from LEGO stores, LEGO.com, and select retailers around the world.
So whether you're a long-time Nintendo fan, a collector, or someone just looking to relive those long road trips and pixelated adventures, this LEGO Game Boy is one of those must-have sets. Personally, I can’t wait to have this sitting on my shelf — it’s the perfect blend of creativity, nostalgia, and geeky goodness.
