A new LEGO set has brought back one of the most popular video game devices of all time.
Lego Game Boy: Nintendo’s Classic Console Gets a Brick Makeover
The LEGO Game Boy is a buildable model of Nintendo’s famous handheld console that was first released in 1989. Now fans can recreate this old-school gaming device using LEGO bricks.
This set includes 421 LEGO pieces that, once put together, look like the original Game Boy. That’s the grey handheld game console with a small screen in the middle, two red buttons labeled “A” and “B,” and black buttons marked “Select” and “Start.”
It even includes little details like the volume control, contrast dial, and the game cartridge slot at the back.
People who buy the LEGO Game Boy will also get two buildable game cartridges: one for The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening and another for Super Mario Land.
These can be swapped in and out, just like real Game Boy cartridges. There’s even a choice of display screens showing the classic start screen or scenes from each of the two games.
This LEGO set is made for adults and older kids who enjoy building things step-by-step. Even people who have never built a LEGO set before can follow the clear instructions included in the box.
It’s a fun activity for anyone who loves video games or wants to remember what gaming was like in the past.
When and Where To Get It
The LEGO Game Boy is available for pre-order starting Thursday, 24 July 2025. It will be sold in LEGO stores, on LEGO’s official website, and in some major toy stores.
The full release for purchase is set for 1 October 2025.
According to LEGO, this new product is part of its collection aimed at adult fans who want to build things that remind them of their childhood.
“This set captures everything people loved about the Game Boy and brings it back to life in a new way,” a LEGO spokesperson said.
With its faithful design and nostalgic features, the LEGO Game Boy is a collector’s item that mixes old-school fun with modern creativity.
