<p>Don’t get us wrong, the Super Mario Lego reveal earlier this week was great and all, but where are <strong><a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/games/nes/legend_of_zelda">The Legend of Zelda</a></strong> and <strong><a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/games/nes/donkey_kong">Donkey Kong</a></strong> sets? They’d be amazing, right? If you’re still imagining what else Nintendo and LEGO could eventually come up with, the good news is there seems to be a real chance of it happening.</p>
<p>During a recent interview with LEGO fansite <a href="https://www.brothers-brick.com/2020/03/13/everything-you-want-to-know-about-lego-super-mario-feature/?">The Brothers Brick</a>, Design Manager at the LEGO Creative Play Lab and Digital Design Lead for LEGO Super Mario – Jonathan Bennink – was asked if Nintendo’s <em>other</em> series could eventually be transformed into LEGO sets.</p>
<p>While he couldn’t share “any specifics” just yet, he did say the LEGO team was open to the idea:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>They [Nintendo] have a lot of very exciting IPs that we might do or might not do.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>LEGO apparently hasn’t worked with Nintendo for the past four years just to release one wave, either. It’s hoping for a long-term partnership with the Japanese video game giant:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>we haven’t worked for four years to release just one wave of products. We hope to have a long and fruitful relationship with Nintendo and their IPs, and we are really looking forward to working with them on a longer-term.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>So, there you go – Nintendo and LEGO’s partnership could go well beyond Super Mario sets. Are there any particular sets you would like to see? <em>Leave a comment below.</em></p>
