When he's not making games or recording videos about game design, Masahiro Sakurai likes to entertain himself in all sorts of ways.
In his latest post on social media, the Super Smash Bros. Ultimate director revealed a LEGO set he received for his 54th birthday earlier this week. It's not just any old Lego set, either - it's the Lego NES! In a follow up post, he chose to highlight the secret underground level hidden inside this build.
If you are curious to know more about this particular Lego set, it was released back in 2020 for £209.99 / $229.99 (although that RRP has risen since) and is packed with all sorts of realistic and entertaining details - including an opening slot for the Game Pak, as well as a controller and a Lego version of the Super Mario Bros. cartridge.
