Lego truly excels at evoking emotions, doesn’t it? Yet again, the building block giant has collaborated with Nintendo, and the result is a captivating LEGO Game Boy set that will surely resonate with fans of yesteryears.
The pair unveiled the set way back in January, but we’ve had to be patient to actually see it. Just like with LEGO, they’ve done an amazing job transforming the product into brick form. In fact, preorders for the handheld’s replica are selling quickly on virtual shelves.
Where Can You Preorder the LEGO Game Boy Set?
You had better click fast, as preorders have already run dry at certain sites.
This morning, preorders for the LEGO Game Boy set became available on LEGO.com and Amazon. In a short span of time, it seems that preorders on LEGO’s site have been exhausted. However, you can still place a preorder through Amazon. More recently, listings for preorders have gone live on Best Buy and Walmart as well.

What Comes in the LEGO Game Boy Set?
421 pieces of pure Nintendo nostalgia.
When there was confusion about what the LEGO Game Boy set contained, people had many speculations. It was said that the brick-built handheld might include some connection to “The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening, ” and it turns out their guesses were accurate! One of the most exciting features of the set is that it includes not just one, but two Game Boy game cartridges which can be inserted into the mock device.
It’s an impressive replication at a near 1:1 scale.
The cartridges provided are two exceptional games for the Game Boy: “Super Mario Land” and the previously mentioned “The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening.” Each game’s cover art is accurately reproduced, and they come with slide presentations that can be shown on the LEGO Game Boy’s display screen.
In summary, the LEGO Game Boy set consists of 421 pieces, making it a challenging build suitable for LEGO enthusiasts aged 18 and above. This meticulously crafted replica is nearly full-sized and boasts an authentic control pad, select, start, A, and B buttons. It also includes the previously mentioned back compartment for inserting and switching Game Boy Game Paks. Furthermore, it showcases a set of three lenticular screens, including those from Super Mario Land and Link’s Awakening, as well as one that displays the famous Nintendo logo boot screen.
When Does the LEGO Game Boy Set Release?
Coming to your hands this fall.
It was previously speculated in February that the LEGO Game Boy set would become available on October 1st, and it appears those speculations were correct as both LEGO and Amazon have confirmed this release date on their respective websites. Additionally, it was rumored that the 421-piece set would be priced at $60, which has also been verified as the set is now listed on both platforms for $59.99.
