- tidu, on 10/12/2007, -1/+57What that screenshot viewing experience on about.com was the worst of my life. An ad every three photos? no thanks
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+47It seems kind of dumb to me that instead of locations or real estate, all the board sections are just nintendo characters that you buy. It would have been cooler if you bought different locations like Yoshi's Island, Bowser's castle, and other in-game locations from Nintendo games. As it is, it just seems like some weird Pokemon board game where you have to collect all the Nintendo characters.

For an organized look at the photos.
-- Im pretty excited for this game. I agree with those who mentioned buying characters instead of property, kind of lame. - lukas88, on 10/12/2007, -1/+29Awesome!
In other news, I hate about.com - Blah_Blah_Blah, on 10/12/2007, -2/+24even if you dont see the ads, it interrupts you to say "brought to you by _____" in which case you wont see anything if you have adblock, but youll still have to click "continue" to move on, which is rather gay.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -10/+27What ads? I didn't see any ads!
http://adblock.mozdev.org/ - jacobmp92, on 10/12/2007, -1/+13I owned Princess Peach.
- RedGiant, on 10/12/2007, -0/+9Here is a picture of the full board. Looks sweet.
http://img502.imageshack.us/img502/7450/nintendomonopolyjb2.jpg - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -3/+11I agree with haolegamer. Like, I can own princess peach? What about her castle? or samus's ship. Or whatever... it seems weird to put a house on a character.
- wm2010russ, on 10/12/2007, -1/+9I cant wait for Microsoft Monopoly! Now thats a game Id play.
- grapeape25, on 10/12/2007, -1/+9Uhh... What do you put on your characters when you get a set? (As opposed to houses and hotels)
- anagoge, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7I was done with her anyway. ;)
- DanSheldon, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7Your lack of a digg cuts at my heart.
- bpwwhirl, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5In one of the screenshots you can see Mario is boardwalk.
- n8r0n, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5I was really hoping the pewter tokens would be Nintendo charecters (Mario, Link, Samus, etc...) and the properties would be Landmarks from Nintendo Games (Peach's Castle, Hyrule Castle, Zebes, etc...) That would have made more sense.
- CardinalFang, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5Buy a Warp Pipe for $150. hahah
The detail of the game tokens are very impressive. More detailed than the normal tokens. But I think they could have done something dfferent for "Go to Jail". - SirThom, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6That link might be affiliate-bugged. Here's a vanilla link:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000EXDOKQ - xerus, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6What the hell... Link gets two pieces, and Samus gets none?
- dofo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5Dug because they couldn't figure out any Nintendo related thing to replace Free Parking.
- john2kx, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4It should have a Tengen cartridge piece, just for gags.
- lordjafar, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4hahaha
a VISCOUS fight?
Sounds a bit sticky to me.
(** VICIOUS ) - ViRaZ, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Is there going to be a small Mario Kart also?
- CardinalFang, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4I know, but "Go to Jail" doesn't really fit into the whole Nintendo theme.
- LordofChaosIori, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Um no, It's color co-ordinated for the main part I.E.: Samus=Orange Link=Green Waluigi=Purple.
- friend18, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4I want to pick this up. As a gamer I feel I should have more game oriented stuff.
- Lemon, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4I think the question on everyone's minds is: when are they bringing out Edna Krabopoly?
- sych0, on 10/12/2007, -2/+5Who/what is on boardwalk?
- apu95, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3I love it :D. Being the big Nintendo fan that I am, it's just a really cool collectible to have.
I just ordered one from giftapolis.com at 25US, instead of the usual 35. There's 5 left right now too! - aquataine, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Ha! I was expecting to see a version of Monopoly for the DS - it might be time to go and start drinking...
- Beelzebub, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3i think that every version of Monopoly has the same corners.
- aks123, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Could this be a clever foreshadowing of what Nintendo plans to do with the gaming industry?
- jaimevejar, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2so waluigi is at 'baltic ave'... is he really the bottom of the barrel
...(probably so) - xtreme777, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Just got mine in from Amazon yesterday. Can't wait to play it!
- kakapu4u, on 10/12/2007, -0/+21up?
- meshgiath, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3affiliate bugged? Went to amazon.com, searched Nintendo Monopoly, cut/paste, viola`! The shorter the better tho
- t4k3n, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2The whole character thing is wrong.. should have loactions from the games . like Bowser's Castle and Kong Kollege ... and such . insted of jail should have "insert controller" (or some less lame,)
- boomerxl, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2To answer the parent question:
This comes with money, not the debit cards, look at Image 6. - EricJD, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Awesome
- Zippo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Anything with Kirby gets a digg from me.
- ModernTenshi, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2I call the Hylian Shield!
- anagoge, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I hereby christen this thread the "What should Free Parking be?" thread.
Any ideas? - saigumi, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I've been excited for this one since they made the initial announcement.It would be the first themed monopoly that I would by since the first star wars special edition came out about 9 years ago.
The sucky part is that our distrubutor got only one frigging copy in. We had put in a precommit for 6 of them two months ago. Now, everyone else (Walmart, Target) is getting theirs and is able to sell it cheaper than we can get them. Once again, small boardgame stores are screwed. - Push2Flush, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1i was going to throw in the dane cook "***** this game" line... but i'm above it.
- Zippo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Who remembers Monopoly for the NES? That was classic.
- deuceace, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I think it is due to it being easier to pair nintendo characters into sets of twos and threes. There are many good locations in the nintendo world but what location within the location would be used?
- BowieX, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Go to Jail => Lose a Life (with Bowser pointing to the jail/restart area. This would make for interesting "Go directly to jail" spiels on the "?" cards!)
Free Parking => Pause (written beneath the gold coin on balck background thingo like in Super Mario All-Stars)
(Agreed about the properties being locales and icons being characters.) - EnoshKhan, on 10/12/2007, -2/+3I got this a few weeks ago, its totally sweet
"Pay Bowser Tax of $15" its great - anagoge, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Unfortunately, I think Monopoly has long past its sell by date. I think the only people who would consider buying this would be collectors.
Personally, I'd rather pay the same price for just the set of pieces (maybe a few more and/or bigger), as they're really nice to look at. - BIGmog, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2There will probably be a Pokemon edition all on it's own.
- merdiesel, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1My family still cannot finish a game of monopoly to this day with out getting into a viscous fight.
