Well, that didn’t take long. Following yesterday’s tantalizing tweet<\/a>, Lego has officially unveiled its brick-based replica of the iconic Nintendo Entertainment System (which just so happens to turn 37 tomorrow). As expected, the ‘console’ doesn’t actually play any games. There’s a buildable TV, though, with a tiny 8-bit Mario figure and a crank that slowly moves the level in the background. The kit also comes with a special ‘Action Brick’ that can be scanned by the Lego Mario that comes with the upcoming Starter Course play set<\/a>. Once activated, the portly plumber will react to the enemies, obstacles and power-ups that are sliding by on screen.<\/p>\n

Of course, any NES wouldn’t be complete without a rectangular controller and cartridge. You can even pop open the front and ‘load’ your favorite game. (It won’t actually do anything – it’s just a nice storage option.) The mammoth build, which includes over 2,600 bricks, will be available to purchase through Lego’s retail stores and website from August 1st for $229.99<\/a>.<\/p>\n
