Nintendo Risk Might as Well Be Called Nintendo Reward
September 6th, 2012
A labor of love 7 years in the making, this heavily customized, Nintendo-themed variant of Risk was made by – drum roll please – redditor NintendoRisk. Instead of our countries and continents, the territories are places from various classic Nintendo games, including the Kanto region, Hyrule, Eagleland, Dinosaur Island and more. It also has aerial territories such as Zebes and the Great Fox ship.
The art looks really good, not just the stuff on the board, but on the cards – there are 100 Hero and 42 Territory cards – as well. NintendoRisk said that all of the artwork is in high resolution. The board for example is about 20,000 pixels wide and its digital copy is about 700MB.
My only suggestion would be to add a border graphic of some sort on the board. I’m sure NintendoRisk can fill it up with Nintendo’s vast cache of characters and icons.

The game’s music would be a great addition to this game. In fact, I have DK country music stuck in my head for seeing Dk Island on the board……..
Nice job man, looks like a lot of hard work was put into it. Wish this was done for sale like they do Monopoly. And nice job on the unique board.
