Before I got granted a Vic 20 and a Game & Watch that allowed me to play games by myself, I was periodically torturing various family members begging them to play Monopoly with me. The hours my parents had to invest in playing the famous and endless board game with me – I actually believe we probably only played it through two times – were very likely what in the end convinced them to give in and let me play videogames.

My family members may have forgotten all about Monopoly, continuing to live a peaceful life unaware that the Monopoly nightmare might start again soon. Apparently, a Nintendo edition of the board game is already in the works. New York’s Park Avenue and such are soon going to be replaced by Mario, Yoshi, Donkey Kong and other iconic Nintendo characters.

How can I not play!
