This summer, a pipe-liner involves a joint project, yes, LEGO Game Boy collaboration. Those currently reported in different reports are also of official LEGO production for its PlayStation 2.
The LEGO Game Boy console is said to be based on the original Game Boy handheld. This, however, appears to be giving the company a lot of nostalgia before its release. It is one among a series of fake video game console releases, which include ATAR and NES.
LEGO Game Boy Collaboration: A Nostalgic Journey for Gamers and Builders
Nintendo has also hosted a relatively short and informative trailer on X. The miniature model of bricks was used to constitute the Game Boy. Of course, its well-known purple buttons and directional controller were also involved.
Nintendo of America officially is hosting a pitch for fans who want to make a retro Nintendo gaming console with LEGO bricks. As of the latest timeline, this should reach the store shelves in October 2025.
While the company has been bombarding the market with several building sets with Nintendo, it is by no means its first foray into creating LEGO sets with the latter as part of the Super Mario and Mario Kart franchises.
In fact, the development history for LEGO sets in line with the Super Mario and Mario Kart franchises has also given us the LEGO Piranha Plant, 16-bit Mario and Yoshi from Super Mario World, and that giant Bowser. Last year, the company of LEGO also released the Nintendo Entertainment System.
That was the same year it featured Game Boy in its range for that particular time. Look out for a set hitting stores this October. Then again, with a release date dropped for October 2025, one would have to start guessing other unannounced features up LEGO’s and Nintendo’s sleeves.
For their part, it has succeeded in combining two of the most exhilarating things involved in playing a game or in building—constructing—into a coherent, unified effort that gives one a single, unique experience. Until then, we count the days to build and show our very own Game Boy, brick by brick.
