DigitalChumps - Fortune Street is a good board game in terms of premise but as a videogame, it suffers in many areas that we would expect would be enhanced by being a virtual experience. From a slow interface to being bogged down on a console, Fortune Street finds little time for you to spend with your friends aside from marathon gaming sessions or parties (though it's not the light-hearted affair you would expect from similar experiences such as Mario Party). As a 1-player experience, the 2+ hour rounds are far too lengthy to keep a player interested by him/herself and the unlockables are not enticing enough to push the player through the game. Finally, at $49.99, the price is too high for the small amount of content available.
For the 30th Anniversary of Final Fantasy XV and Dragon Quest, familiar characters from each series join in the board game series Fortune Street. It will be a cross-over of Final Fantasy XV and Dragon Quest and will be on the PS4 and PS Vita. The following two tabs change content below.BioLatest Posts Jasper Song Games […]
This damn article got the title and the description wrong. It's Final Fantasy in general that's crossing over with Dragon Quest, not just FFXV in particular.
Good luck on the localization of that thing. The previous entry didn't even make it to the west.

"Fortune Street released in the U.S. for the Wii on December 5, 2011, with a MSRP of $49.99. The game was developed by Square Enix, and published by Nintendo for its U.S. release. It received an ESRB rating of "EVERYONE" with "Comic Mischief" listed as content for parents and gamers to be aware of.
A description for the game on the Nintendo Channel says, "Players race around the board trying to accumulate wealth and hit a target value while buying, selling and trading property with friends and family to see who can be the first to cash out. What appears at first to be a simple property-buying board game offers multiple levels of money-maximizing opportunity."
The game has been out almost a year-and-a-half now, but how much has it actually been played? If you own a Wii or even now a Wii U, and skipped over Fortune Street when it released, how many hours might you expect from the game if you decide to buy it now? Brew yourself some coffee, and let's take a look at the official U.S. Wii Nintendo Channel data to see how many hours Wii owners have reported playing the game, and what the average hours "Per person" are reported so far!", writes CoffeeWithGames.
I bought this game months this is literally all I play on Wii U now. It's so much fun bankrupting people. ^~^
SPC writes, "SuperPhillip Central is back with a new week of content. We hope you're ready, willing, and able to find some time to spend with us, listening to some great video game music. On today's docket, we have music from Fire Emblem: Awakening, Luigi's Mansion, and Sonic Generations."
Its actually a pretty fun game it takes about 30 mins to an hour to get into with 4 players playing and that really the only way to play this game. Its not a game for kids really at all. I can understand its lows scores from that perspective but my friends and I, a group of people in there early to mid 20s enjoyed it a lot, Stocks control the game
