The Best LEGO Nintendo Sets for All Ages to Enjoy

Author : Christian Mar 17,2025

For years, LEGO's creative partnership with Nintendo has yielded some of their most imaginative and accessible sets. Initially, in 2020, LEGO cleverly separated its offerings: Super Mario playsets, blending digital and physical play for children, and iconic, nostalgia-inducing replicas for adults. However, the lines have blurred. Today's LEGO Nintendo sets boast a delightful cross-generational appeal, with kids' sets offering more complexity and adult sets embracing a playful, whimsical aesthetic—perfectly reflecting Nintendo's family-friendly brand.
