The LEGO Play and Build Remote merges classic and new toys, incorporating its building block looks with a Nintendo Wii gaming remote.
Rather than playing with the plain white remotes that the Nintendo Wii system offers, why not spice up your gaming with these colorful devices? The LEGO Play and Build Remote pays homage to how old-school games used to be before all the technological advances kicked in.
