Nintendo's Latest Announcement: A LEGO Game Boy!

Nintendo has teamed up with LEGO again, this time unveiling a LEGO Game Boy set! Launching October 2025, this follows the successful LEGO NES release.

While exciting for fans of both brands, the announcement on X (formerly Twitter) sparked a flurry of comments about the anticipated Nintendo Switch 2. Many joked that the LEGO Game Boy was Nintendo's way of announcing their next console.

Pricing for the LEGO Game Boy hasn't been revealed yet, but further information is promised in the coming weeks and months.
