Fortune Street (formerly known as Itadaki Street)!

For those of you who are unfamiliar with Fortune Street, I suggest watching this video:

Wii - Fortune Street E3 Trailer

It's basically a mesh of Mario Party and Monopoly (with the emphasis on Monopoly) - as a result, there's a greater depth in gameplay and strategy than Mario Party 9 will offer - but I'm still more excited for MP9 nevertheless. Additionally, regional online HAS been confirmed for Fortune Street!  ;D And by regional I mean within your own country - so for most of us that'd mean America!

This has a Q4  2011 release date - anyone looking to purchase this , this holiday season? I personally, am!

A great terror is upon us, boys.

I've actually shown an interest in this game... looks fun.

 

[PartyPopStar]

Me too! I mean MP die-hard fans, such as moi, can certainly be like OMGNOAMARIOPARTYDUMMY...but if you approach it with an open mind , I feel like we may find ourselves surprised..besides it even has online.. I've heard it's fun and nothing but good things about it

 

[yoshi_7]

Hmm that looks very interesting...

I might purchase

Hasn't this game been out for a few years in Japan? I remember seeing it's Japaneese name many times before, if it has, then seeing it getting a NA release this much later is somewhat strange.

(I REALLY apologize for a oduble post, I just had to calrify this.) I just did some research, and realized that this is an entire SERIES, I was thinking about a DS installment, so, I kinda' made a mistake.

As for the game itself, it seems nice and has that Mario-Party-ish style to it, and seeing how all the characters having uniqe dialouge, could result in some humerous moments.

But, seeing how Square Enix is involved, and I have a very, VERY large hate torwards Final Fantasy (Which is why I dislike Kingdom Hearts 2, Mario Hoops 3-on-3, and Mario Sports mix ALONE.) I might not want to pick this one up, then again, they seem to be using only Dragon Quest (A series I'm entirely fine with) characters, I might pick it up if they do.

This game looks really cute. I hope Pudding gets in like she was in the DS version.

One really cool thing I just found out is that this game will have over 15 boards. That's a lot. So replay value will be very high.

The wide variety of characters and the online capability makes it seem like a lot of fun, too.

 

[SUPER WAHA]

Hopefully it's gonna be better than the DS version.

I'm super excited for the online capability, personally
Hopefully this imparts some sort of pressure on MP9 to include online

This doesn't look like a bad game right now. I'll might get it when it gets released.

 

[Vipsoccermaster]

This might have some potential, but I'm not sure of considering it. Maybe I should try renting it. Then again, it has Mario and its friends, maybe it could be worthwhile. It would be a tough choice if Mario Party 9 will be released within the same time frame.

Good fucking Lord, your posts give me cancer.

On topic, I've played Itadaki Street and it's an ight game. I might get the upcoming release.

Stop whining, let the guy speak his mind.

My sentiments exactly. That was incredibly rude.

Looks like we got some more information here.

Classic and Modern Mario Stages Step Onto Fortune Street

Posted Fri, 18 Nov 2011 by James Newton

World 1 awaits

Nintendo and Square Enix team-up Fortune Street is bringing the best of both franchises to its world of board games, with new screenshots showing some of the familiar sights you'll be trying to conquer with the upcoming Wii game.

The game takes in spots of Mario history, starting from the classic World 1 from Super Mario Bros. and going right up to Starship Mario from Super Mario Galaxy 2. In between there's a spot of Isle Delfino, Mario Circuit and more.

Fortune Street is out next month in North America, with a European release — under the name Boom Street — set for 6th January.

Looks like we'll be revisiting stages from the past, and the game's release is Monday, December 5, 2011. Saving it for Christmas.

Iv'e always wanted Mario Party to try and get at least a board or two to be based off actual Mushroom Kingdom locations.

 

[H-J Kaabii]

I'm mainly interested to see how the property values change depending on who owns the lot, and/or adjacent buildings.

And good to hear 'familiar' locations.
