Enthusiasts rave over the captivating LEGO Nintendo Game Boy, creating a buzz online
In an exciting collaboration, LEGO and Nintendo have unveiled a 421-piece brick-built Game Boy set. The miniature replica, targeted at adults aged 18 and up, is now available for preorder and will be released on 1 October.
The set, which has received positive feedback from gamers, features a near 1:1 scale brick-built replica of the original Game Boy console. It includes a control pad, A and B buttons, select and start buttons, a volume dial, and contrast adjustment. However, it's important to note that games cannot be played on the brick-built Game Boy set.
Instead, the set comes with two changeable brick-built Game Paks, each a brick-built version of classic games: The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening and Super Mario Land. The games can be changed in and out to alter the screen display or the default start screen can be chosen.
The LEGO Game Boy set has been a hot topic on the Nintendo Subreddit, with users praising its fun factor, reasonable price, and swappable cartridges. Jardex22, for instance, commended the set for being fun, reasonably priced, and having swappable cartridges. Anotherspelunker, on the other hand, plans to purchase the set as a showpiece.
