While we’re all waiting for official news about the Switch 2, Nintendo has gone ahead and announced a very different kind of console. The company is teasing a collaboration with Lego that will see the original grey brick known as a Game Boy rendered in Lego blocks. There are no details yet, aside from the fact that it’ll be out in October, but it’s likely an official reveal is coming soon.
This isn’t the first collab between the two companies, as there have been a handful of Lego sets based on Nintendo properties, along with a blocky rendition of the NES.
If you’re keeping track, this is part of a lengthy string of non-Switch 2 announcements and launches that Nintendo has made over the last few months. A Nintendo museum opened in Kyoto in October, and after that the company released an alarm clock called Alarmo, started a music streaming service full of classic gaming tunes, and kicked off a test for a mysterious MMO. At this rate, it’s almost pointless to guess what Nintendo will do next.
