LEGO and Nintendo's successful partnership has already yielded fantastic LEGO sets based on the Mario and Zelda franchises. However, the vast Nintendo universe offers countless other possibilities. This article explores which Nintendo franchise deserves the LEGO treatment next, and what future LEGO Nintendo sets might look like.
The current LEGO Nintendo lineup features a wide array of Mario sets (including Donkey Kong) and several Animal Crossing sets. However, many other beloved franchises remain untapped. To address this, we present a poll: Which Nintendo franchise deserves a LEGO set most?
With the upcoming Switch 2 and continued investment in Nintendo movies (the new Mario movie and the eventual live-action Zelda adaptation), anticipation for future LEGO Nintendo sets is high. What franchises might we see in 2025 and beyond? Share your thoughts in the comments!
Personally, a Metroid line, especially with Metroid Prime 4 on the horizon, seems ideal. However, the licensing agreement between Mattel and The Pokémon Company makes official LEGO Pokémon sets unlikely, despite the appeal.
