10 Reasons Why NXT is the Golden Age of LEGO Mindstorms

Ойын-сауық

LEGO Mindstorms is one the greatest parts of LEGO. Being able to build and program your robots at an advanced level is, not just fun, but also very educational. But which generation of LEGO Mindstorms, RCX, NXT, EV3, or Spike Prime, will be considered the golden age for many years to come. The term "golden age" is open to interpretation, but Builderdude35 and I have both defined it as a time period in LEGO Mindstorms which will be most remembered by LEGO fans. Builderdude35 believes that the EV3 was the golden age, but I believe that the NXT was the golden age, so we both had a discussion on zoom and we both agreed to make our respective videos listing 10 reasons for why NXT/EV3 is the golden age.

    I’m really tempted to get an NXT 2.0 set even though I have an EV3, just because it has such a “nostalgic” design (which might be from seeing it in the back of old LEGO magazines as a kid)

    I had a 2.0 as a kid, amazing kit. Also much like the RCS i feel it fit the look of the accompanying technic parts of its era really well, designwise. I also remember how NXT dominated in that early lego KZread golden age before you needed a degree to make a successful video.

    After studying Electrical Engineering for 3 Years, i now see how much more Lego could have done with the hardware, but didn't. Here are some things: -Only 4 sensor ports really limited capabilities -wasting a whole sensor port on a single button -the color sensor not beeing included in the first nxt set -making even the simple sensors huge, just so they all look the same -so few, but really weirdly placed mounting points on the motors and the main brick -only having the 4 buttons on the main brick -inflexible, flat rj45 cables And on a side note: I find the included technic parts pretty weird. They could have put much more universal pars in there

    Multiplexers were available from third party suppliers. I agree with the huge, odd, sized motors and sensors, which didn't make sense at all! The RCX button sensors were much smaller and nicer. And they can be used with an adapter cable.

    Nxt is cool, but in 2023 the bricks are outdated and pretty much unusable unless you use an older pc, the bricks have issues with newer laptops and they will end up not being able to boot after programming them with the new pc's. The issue is with the usb drivers they use, they use 2 of them which compatibly is the main issue.
