The Best LEGO Nintendo Sets for All Ages to Enjoy

LEGO's Nintendo Collaboration: A Winning Formula

For several years, LEGO and Nintendo's creative partnership has yielded some of LEGO's most imaginative and accessible sets. Initially, a clear distinction existed between sets targeted at children (Super Mario playsets – digital/physical hybrids) and adults (iconic, nostalgic replicas).

However, LEGO has strategically blurred this line. Recent children's sets are more intricate, while adult sets embrace a more playful, whimsical aesthetic. This cross-generational appeal perfectly aligns with Nintendo's family-friendly brand.

The future looks bright for LEGO Nintendo, with a clear emphasis on quality builds.
