Advantages: Great gameplay, good graphics, good sound effects, re-playability

Disadvantages: None

I picked up Monopoly for the Wii when I was out shopping for my wife one day as she sat at home with a bad cold and I thought this would cheer her up for a little bit and months later it is still cheering her up.
The game of Monopoly is one of the classic board games which I remember playing as a youngster and the only thing that I used to hate was the tidying up after my victory but with this you have all of the classic gameplay (now with animated graphics which I love as well as the sound effects which I feel enhance the game) but also with the joys of the knowledge that once you have finished your games you simply turn off the remote (thus turning off the console) and get on with anything else you want to do.
This game is brilliant for a single player but is best played with a few friends over as you find yourselves chatting and having a laugh whilst getting the memories of your youth.
The gameplay is simple with the ability to shake the wii remote to get the sound of the dice being shaken and you click the button to throw the dice (you can just click the button without shaking if you prefer).
The graphics are well done for the Nintendo Wii and offers up a well presented boardgame for the console that rekindles many happy memories for all who play it. The sound is simple with repetitive music but this is normal in a game of this style and thinking and for the price you pay (normally about £25) you are getting much more than you would expect.

Summary: This is Monopoly without the messy tidying or the setting up with the banker giving the money out
