LEGO Super Mario 71374 Nintendo Entertainment System

The LEGO Super Mario 71374 Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) and the LEGO Super Mario 72046 Game Boy represent two distinct nostalgic building experiences within the LEGO Super Mario theme. A major distinction lies in scale and complexity, as the NES model is significantly larger, boasting 2,646 pieces compared to the Game Boy's 421 pieces. Consequently, the NES is aimed at older builders, suitable for ages 18 and up, while the Game Boy, though also targeted at adults (18+), is a much smaller, quicker build. Both sets feature Mario as the primary character and fall under the Game Characters theme, but the NES offers a more elaborate, display-oriented build experience suitable for dedicated adult collectors. If you prefer a substantial, intricate project, the NES is the clear frontrunner, whereas the Game Boy provides a more manageable tribute to retro gaming.
