Lego Nintendo took me longer to build than beating Super Mario Bros.

We put the Lego NES up against the old-school Super Mario Bros. game to see how they compare in terms of fun factor and the time it takes to finish. Yes, it’s a race — building the Lego set versus playing the video game. Read: Lego NES set officially revealed Read: Lego Super Mario sets…

      @CNET I unfortunately lost my collection in a fire a couple years ago, but have been collecting since, mostly the Speed Champions; even built a dyno testing garage.

    Where’s the music production from when you started building the Nintendo?

  17. Brandon Niette

    August 20, 2020 at 8:23 pm

    Yeah now that’s awesome build up of LEGO’s but that long time to build I’d rather play super Mario odyssey on the switch

    When I heard this was first coming out, I really thought that it would be a functional Nintendo System made out of Lego’s….. boy was I in for a disappointment….

    • Omniferous Swan

      August 21, 2020 at 10:15 pm

      Kind of an unrealistic expectation to assume a lego model would be functional. If you buy a lego deathstar do you assume it can destroy planets?

    • Maiku Tsukino

      August 22, 2020 at 12:09 am

      @Omniferous Swan …..wow. I don’t know how to reply to that level of “Out There”. Kinda like asking someone if they bought an airsoft gun thinking it fired real bullets. I might need a few more beers before I can grasp your level and respond properly.

    • Omniferous Swan

      August 22, 2020 at 12:17 am

      @Maiku Tsukino you’re just proving my point more. Why would anyone think a replica would do the same thing?

    • Maiku Tsukino

      August 22, 2020 at 12:35 am

      @Omniferous Swan Hold up. I’m still not drunk enough to be at your level. I’m working on it. I’m working on it.

    • Blue

      August 23, 2020 at 12:17 am

      @Omniferous Swan not that I would expect this to be functional either but it’s a far reaching example.
      A death star isn’t really plausible but including the wires and components pre included with the kit to use the Lego as a chassis wouldn’t be as difficult.

    • Omniferous Swan

      August 23, 2020 at 12:33 am

      @Blue i can think of a hundred reasons why it would be very difficult and dangerous. 😅 But yeah. It was an unequivocal example. Just the first lego model to come to mind.

    Wastage of time, I don’t know why people spend their productive time on these things 😑

    If you have ever taken apart a Nintendo you would know that it’s made of very few components and you could easily fit one into that Lego model. I would buy the model and retro fit it to work. Now that would be a fun project!

    There isn’t supposed to be a dark gray line across the front of your NES door. You got some parts swapped.

    Thank you for making and sharing this video. I bought this and plan to film it being put together.

    I was planning on noodling my pieces, I’ve heard it helps.
