How will the new LEGO Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) look? A closer peek at the building it in all of its retro glory is available thanks to GameXplain.
We now have a video showcasing a completed set with its LEGO-built NES console, controller, and cartridge. Of course, the main highlight of the set is a LEGO-built TV that simulates Super Mario Bros. gameplay when a crank is turned – and we also get a look at what LEGO Super Mario does when placed on top of the TV!
LEGO Nintendo Entertainment System™
Do you love video games? Did you play Super Mario Bros.™ back in the day? Or do you just enjoy a hands-on, creative activity in your spare time? If so, this nostalgic LEGO® Nintendo Entertainment System™ (71374) model kit is perfect for you.
Authentic and interactive
The brick-built NES is packed with realistic details, including an opening slot for the Game Pak with a locking function and a controller with a connecting cable and plug. The console comes with a buildable retro TV, featuring a flat 8-bit Mario figure on the scrolling screen, plus an action brick to scan with LEGO® Mario™ (figure not included; find in the LEGO® Super Mario™ Starter Course set – 71360) so he reacts to the on-screen enemies, obstacles and power-ups just like in the Super Mario Bros. game.
Creative fun
This unique set is part of an inspiring collection of LEGO building sets for adults that make fabulous gifts for yourself and hobbyist friends who enjoy DIY challenges and proudly displaying their creations.
Currently, the LEGO NES set is available at official LEGO stores for around $229.99 USD. And seeing how long the build time is … I’m skipping out on this one.
