My nine year old son loves this version of Monopoly. He has several versions of Monopoly, including some collector versions, and loves them all, but he really enjoys this version. Here is a quote from him:" I love it 'cause you can even buy the White House. And you use million dollars instead of just dollars, so you feel RICH. I also love using the credit card machine."
So...BUY IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This version of Monopoly is my second favorite so far. First place is of course monopoly featuring nintendo.
The banking calculator is super simple. My seven year old operated it like a pro. It made game play a lot faster. No guessing who has how much. No money to deal with. We found that we were able to play longer because we didn't have to count everything at the end of the game! We just added in our property values declared my son the winner and put it away!
The "new" properties are great. A change of scenery for monopoly is always fun.
Monopoly fan or not, you will love it.

We are all long time Monopoly players and had so much fun with this modern version. My only two suggestions for playing this game are to have someone only be the banker (because you will be busy) and get ready to have lots of fun and laughs.

My 13-year-old son received this as a birthday gift and we just finished playing our first game.
Newly updated with current tokens, revised and relevant properties, I found it a bit troubling that the White House is for sale. The cynics among us might appreciate the sad truth behind current Washington politics but I think irony like this is best left off of this family-oriented board game. Hasbro, what were you thinking?!
Aside from that, we love this game. The electronic devise took a few turns to get used to. Using opposite sides of the device for debits (red) and credits (green) is a really nice touch! The game still takes a while to play but it's so much easier without having to deal with paper money.

This is great since you don't need to have all the money everywhere, but it still takes time to enter in all the payments, etc. Now to be fair, there are only three of us playing at a time and this may make a difference. If there were many people playing, or even a person just being the banker and not playing, it would be better. You are still waiting to have the banker enter in the values and such, so the play time is still slowed down.
There is no real money-counting educational value to the toy since it's just like using an ATM machine, more or less. You do have to do some math when deciding whether to buy a property or upgrade to more houses or hotels.
The real (and only) plus to this game is that you don't have the money all over the place and you don't have to count it out in the beginning or put it away at the end of the game. This was all I expected when I bought the game so we're perfectly happy with it and enjoy more room on the table. Worth the money? Absolutely! :)
