Street Fighter Monopoly is a thing you can buy for $40 if it weren't currently sold out

Ryu is also a huge economics junkie. Didn't you know?

Capcom announced yesterday that you can now purchase Monoply: Street Fighter Collector's Edition from Amazon. The board game currently goes for an MSRP of $40.

Street Fighter Monopoly features six custom-made icons, which consist of Chun-Li's bracelet, a hadouken, er, cloud, Vega's mask, M. Bison, Ryu and Blanka. In this version of Monopoly, instead of competing to see who can buy pieces of property, houses and hotels, players will compete to purchase 22 different fighting arenas inspired from the game's 25-year history. Players can then "improve" those fighting arenas by adding training rooms and dojos to them.

I'm not big on Monopoly, but I can dig this as a Street Fighter fan, especially since I've kind of always wanted my very own Vega mask... though, this one, of course is the size of my pinky's fingerprint.

As of this writing, it appears to have sold out on Amazon, as the site lists the board game as currently unavailable. But if this bit of news made you bust out a shoryuken in pure joy, you might want to casually click that link every now and then to see if more have become available.

Monopoly is a good game if you build in a time limit. My favorite house rule is to take an unused piece (or a penny or something) and put it on the first property. Then, mark one of the dice's one-side with a dot or some kind of mark to make it stand out.

Now, every time you roll that symbol, in addition to whatever normally happens on the roll, you move the piece to the next property. When the piece reaches "boardwalk" the game ends instantly.

What this does is prevents the insanely slow and painful end game that happens in normal Monopoly and speeds players up so they feel they have to make decisions based on what's going on in the game at the moment. Auctioning property becomes more intense, because everyone tends to get involved in a land grab, and people are more willing to make trades, knowing that long term plans may not pan out. The time limit is somewhat random, so it changes each game.

You can also give the piece special properties, like doubling the rent on any space it is on; or making those spaces free zones while it is there; or all money paid to that space goes to the bank instead of a player; or it sends to jail anyone who lands on that space.
