With the success of Lego Star Wars I thought it would only be a matter of time before the Lego franchise dipped a toe into retro-gaming. Now we get a sneak peak of what that might look like thanks to MlCHAELHlCKOX’s very cool video, “Lego Arcade”. The video includes Lego versions of Frogger, Space Invaders, Pacman, Arkanoid, Tron and Asteroids. Each one is very well done. The only thing I find confusing is the use of the “Current Affair” sound effect at the beginning. I keep expecting Maury Povich to step out and introduce each game.

Cool! Wasn’t there a late 80s Pac-Man arcade game with an isometric perspective where one of the levels was formed by Lego-like bricks?
