Nintendo and LEGO have once again delighted fans by announcing their latest collaboration: a LEGO version of the iconic Game Boy. Set for release in October 2025, this nostalgic creation is the latest addition to a series of Nintendo-themed LEGO sets that have been thrilling retro gaming enthusiasts for years.
The LEGO Game Boy is expected to include buildable details like game cartridges, much like the immensely popular LEGO NES set launched in 2020. This partnership between two powerhouse brands has been a resounding success, starting with the LEGO Super Mario line in 2020 and evolving to include everything from themed courses to full-scale console recreations.

For those who grew up in the 90s, the Game Boy is more than just a console—it’s a cultural icon. LEGO’s rendition promises to capture that spirit, offering fans a chance to relive their childhood in brick form. While no images or further details have been revealed yet, anticipation is already at a fever pitch. Could we also see a Tetris cartridge included in the set? Fingers crossed!
This announcement also coincides with LEGO’s recent expansion of Nintendo-themed sets, such as the LEGO Mario Kart. Nostalgia sells—and when paired with the tactile joy of LEGO building, it’s a match made in retro heaven.
