Gamer World Domination Games

Nintendo Risk Lets You Take Over the Universe

Take a look at this custom-made Nintendo Risk board game. The game has been the pet project of redditor NintendoRisk for seven years, and now his hard work has payed off.

The Nintendo Risk board sees the regular countries and continents replaced by classic Nintendo games. Games featured include Kirby, Earthbound, The Legend of Zelda and Pokemon. The board also features aerial territories like Captain Fox’s star ship. The game comes with 100 hero cards and 42 territory cards. Both the board and all of the cards have high-resolution artwork on them.

Take a break from video gaming and turn your attention to the video game-themed board gaming for just one night. Play this to remember what it's like to roll some dice, hold some cards and try to take over the (Nintendo) world.
