Here is Lego's official Nintendo Game Boy — with lenticular display
As you'll see in the many images below, this Game Boy doesn't rely on miniature hats for its iconic fuchsia A and B buttons — Lego has seemingly created pitch-perfect buttons that appear to recess into the frame.
And unless I'm very much mistaken, it comes with printed tiles rather than sticker labels to help replicate the Game Boy's many, many iconic labels for its buttons, volume dial, on-off switch, 'Dot Matrix With Stereo Sound' highlight, as well as larger features like the Game Boy's mono speaker grille, battery compartment latch, and serial number around back that have proven difficult to emulate in bricks.
But perhaps best of all, this Lego Game Boy can show off actual scenes from the classic games using swappable lenticular lenses that'll show you different images when viewed from different angles. You can pop in a brick-built cartridge of The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening or Super Mario Land, and 'watch' the classic Nintendo logo drop as you rotate the screen downwards (you'll have to imagine the Game Boy's da-DING beep). Or, pop in a different lenticular lens to see Link cozy up to Marin on the beach in Awakening's most melancholy scene:
I built Nick Lever's fan-designed Lego Game Boy myself, and have the real deal that plays actual cartridges too, but I'm going to be mighty tempted to pick up the official Lego one as well. If those buttons move when you push them, I doubt I'll resist! Do wish it came with Tetris, too, though.Posts from this author will be added to your daily email digest and your homepage feed.

Former YouTuber Dani Cimorelli Expecting First Baby with Musician Husband Emmyn Calleiro
Dani was formally a member of her sisters' band, Cimorelli, while Calleiro is the lead singer for the band Games We PlayNEED TO KNOW Former YouTuber Dani Cimorelli and Emmyn Calleiro are going to be parents The Games We Play singer announced the news on his Instagram Dani was formerly a member of the band Cimorelli, which was started by her sisters and had a presence on YouTubeDani Cimorelli and Emmyn Calleiro are going to be parents! The Games We Play singer, 25, shared the exciting news on his Instagram, posting a few photos of himself and his wife Dani, also 25, who is best known for formerly being a part of her sisters' band, Cimorelli, which found fame on YouTube. In the first photo, Emmyn can be seen putting an arm around his wife and smiling. Dani smiled and leaned into her husband, wearing a cropped black T-shirt that showed off her belly. "In case you don't see me as much on here - wanted to fill you in that I'm going to become a dad this month and I'm also halfway done with my second album," Emmyn wrote in his caption. "If u miss me, play my music that's on Spotify and know that I'm changing diapers and writing new songs for you. Trying to make something special, see u soon ❤️." Never miss a story — sign up for to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer, from celebrity news to compelling human interest stories. Dani left Cimorelli in January 2020 after 10 years in the band. At the time, she said "she wants to pursue other career paths outside of music and has made the decision to move on from the band," per a statement released by her sisters. Dani and Emmyn got engaged in August 2018 and got married later that year when they were both 19. In a video posted to their shared YouTube channel, the couple spoke about how difficult it was to get engaged and married that young. "I'm not going to lie guys, it was probably one of the worst few months of my entire life," Dani said at the time. "August, September, October, November. Some of the worst times of my entire life. Not because of our wedding, but because again, like I said, it was really difficult being 19 and engaged." "Just because so many people don't approve or like it or say negative things or whatever on the Internet or in person," she explained. "Just so many things." Then in 2023, Dani and Emmyn shared on their respective Instagram Stories that they were no longer together. Although the image is no longer up, a fan posted their statement to TikTok. "Hey guys, we wanted to let you know that we are not together anymore. We still love each other a lot and are still each other's biggest fans. We are both okay and are still friends ❤️ — Dani and Emmyn," the statement read. However, in January 2024, the couple appeared to have reconciled when Emmyn posted a video to his TikTok about his band Games We Play's new song, "Girl-Shaped Crater." "I fell in love for the first time when I was 18. She was the most amazing girl I'd ever met. From the moment I met her, I knew she was the one for me," Emmyn wrote over the video, which featured his new song. "After almost 5 years, we split up for a while. Being apart from each other felt wrong. It only made me want her more." "I always felt like she didn't realize how amazing she really was. I wrote this song to tell her, and almost didn't get to show her," he continued. "It's how I felt when we were 18, and it's how I feel now. (We're back together now).
