“Having the original Gameboy back in the day, this set brings back not only the look, but the feel of the distant memories,” wrote one fan in a five-star review on Lego.com. “There are clever little mechanics to give the tactile feeling of the squishy buttons, soft d-pad movement and even clicks of on/off. It shakes the memories of those older gaming days. The display stands and interchangeable game screens and cartridges bring the fun. And it is so close to the original, you can easily psych someone out that you are playing the old school Gameboy. Love the building of internal components and there even is a little save battery detail in Zelda cart. Take a trip back with this very tactile little gem!”
