Nintendo Monopoly is a board game based on the classic board game Monopoly featuring Nintendo characters such as Mario, Luigi, Donkey Kong, Yoshi, Link, Samus Aran, Kirby, and various others. It was released in July of 2006.

In the game, Nintendo characters are used as properties. Super Mushrooms (referred to as "Power-Ups" in-game) are used in place of houses, whereas Stars ("Invincibilities") take the place of hotels.

In 2010, a revised edition of the game was released. Although the core game is relatively unchanged in this update, several artistic tweaks were made. The artwork was revised, and the board no longer includes a collage of screenshots. Rather, a lineup of characters is displayed across the board instead. Several spaces on the board were also changed; most notably, the light blue Star Fox properties were replaced with characters from the Animal Crossing series.

Changes to the 2010 version [ edit ]

The 1-Up Mushroom space no longer gives players the option to pay 10% of their money.

The Treasure Chest Deposit space now costs $100. The artwork was also changed from Wario's treasure to a coin.

Trivia [ edit ]

Bowser is shown on the box, and he is mentioned on a ? Block card, but he does not make an appearance in the game itself.

The game photo montage in the center of the 2006 board includes a picture from Super Mario 64 ; this shot is from a prototype, as evidenced in the colored number displays.

However, their designs are taken from the anime "Kirby: Right Back at Ya!". Meta Knight also appears as he did in "Kirby: Right Back At Ya!", but his appearance is from an episode (without a background), not his official artwork.
