Shortly earlier than Nintendo lifted the lid on the upcoming Swap 2, the corporate introduced that it could as soon as once more be teaming up with Lego. We have had the NES, we have had Animal Crossing units, and now we’re getting the Recreation Boy.
No additional info was supplied past the transient, tantalising debut teaser, however in line with a brand new leak from Falconbrickstudios (thanks, Eurogamer), the set may very well be a bit extra reasonably priced than we had been anticipating.
Briefly, we’re taking a look at what feels like a reasonably small set at simply 421 items, which is significantly fewer than the NES at 2646 items. Now, sure, it is apparent {that a} Recreation Boy goes to be smaller than an NES, however our interior pessimist was half-expecting Lego and Nintendo to beef up the set with some pointless extras, thus rising the brick depend and, after all, the worth.
Alas, it seems to be like we could also be taking a look at a value of simply $59.99 (about £48) for this factor, which for a Lego set actually is not all that unhealthy. Oh, and it is also supposedly because of launch on 1st October 2025.
Although Falconbrickstudios has been rated as being pretty dependable on the subject of Lego leaks, we would nonetheless suggest approaching this with a wholesome diploma of scepticism. Hopefully we’ll hear extra within the coming weeks, however for now, color us intrigued.
