Itadaki Street DS[2] is a Japanese-only game for the Nintendo DS developed by TOSE and Think Garage, and published by Square Enix. It is the seventh entry in the Monopoly-like Itadaki Street series and the first game since Itadaki Street 2: Neon Sign wa Bara Iro ni for the Super Famicom to be released on a Nintendo console. It features characters and elements from both the Super Mario franchise and Dragon Quest series.
A follow-up to this game, titled Fortune Street, was released internationally for the Wii in December 2011.
Gameplay[edit]
Players move around the board, buying shops and collecting money from others who land on their shop squares. Depending on circumstances, some players can forcibly take over another player's shop squares, or make them inactive for a turn. Players can also hold shares of an area of squares so that they get paid when someone lands on any square in that block, even if it is not their own.
Players get bonuses for leveling up, which is done by passing four special squares on the board (each marked with a suit- Club, Diamond, Heart, and Spade) and then going to the bank square. If the player lands on one of these special squares instead of passing them, they get a chance to randomly draw a "chance card", which affects gameplay or a player. Usually, the goal is to reach a certain total property value and get to the bank, or to make a player bankrupt. There is also a special casino square where themed games of chance occur.
Squares[edit]
- Shop square: The player can use their money to buy it. If this shop is owned by somebody else, the player must pay its price. If this shop is already owned by the one that lands on it, they can invest money in one of their shops.
- Lucky square: The player gets a quarter of all the fees for one turn.
- Super lucky square: The player gets the half of all the fees for one turn.
- Vacant plot: The player can build anything on it.
- Casino square: The player can play a minigame and win some money, stocks or suits.
- Break square: All the player's shops get closed for a turn.
- Suit square: The player gets a suit and chooses a chance card if they land on it.
- Chance square: The player chooses a chance card.
- Cannon square: The player goes to the chosen opponent's location.
- Warp square (Either a Warp Pipe or a Portal): The player warps to the Warp Square of the same color.
- Switch square: The Board's shape changes.
- Magmalice Square: If the square is active, the player goes to an inactive Magmalice Square and then it becomes inactive. It only appears in Mt. Magmageddon.
- Suit change square: The suit offered by the square is not fixed; it changes as players pass by it.
- Die square: The player rolls another die.
- Bank square: All players start and end on this square. When a player passes by this square, they may buy stocks. If the player brings the four suits to the bank, they get a salary and their level increases by one. When they have the goal assets, they have to go to the bank in order to win.
- Broker square: The player may buy stocks.
Areas and stock system[edit]
All shops are divided in many areas, each given a unique name and color. Most areas contain four shops. Shops start with a given price when players buy them and by investing into them, the price increases. The player can invest up to 999 gold into a shop at a time, but this amount is limited by the shop's max capital. If a player gets another shop in the same area as other shops owned by them, the shops' prices grow, and the player can invest more money on that shop. The player can achieve a monopoly by owning all shops in the area. Shops in monopolized areas have their value boosted and accept even bigger investments. The appearance of a shop changes based on how much gold is invested in it, though this is only cosmetic.
A player who crosses onto the bank square or stops on a broker square may buy stocks. The player can choose any area to invest gold into. Players may buy up to 99 stocks at a time and can hold a max number of 999 stocks in an area. Whenever gold is exchanged between players by landing on a shop, stockholders in that area get a bonus percentage of gold based on how many stocks they have. When gold is invested in a shop, the area's stock price may get raised and make stocks more valuable. When a shop loses value, the stock price may go down. Likewise, when a player buys or sells more than 10 stocks in an area, the price of stock in that area goes up or down by 8%, respectively. Players can sell their stocks at the start of their turn.
Players can exchange shops before rolling the die. They can choose to exchange one to two of their own shops for one to two of an opponent's shop. Gold can be added as a supplement to the deal. After the initial terms of the trade are decided, the opponent may ask for more gold, accept the terms of the deal, or decline the trade. Players may also force buyout on the opponents' shops when they land on them. To buy a shop out, the player must pay 5x its real value.
Each CPU rank invests differently:
| CPU Rank | Max. stock buying per bank pass | Max. investment per invest | Chance of buyout for others | Other notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Rank D | 29 | 100G | Very rarely | None |
| Rank C | 49 | 200G | ? | None |
| Rank B | Maximum | Maximum | Often | They usually invest too early, preventing them from buying stocks in their areas. |
| Rank A | Maximum | Maximum | Often | They invest later than Rank B CPUs, letting them buy more stocks before raising their price. They also try to buy stocks in opponents' areas. |
| Rank S | Maximum | Maximum | Often | They sometimes sell stock to lower opponents' assets. |
Vacant plots[edit]
There are special squares with a "Sale" sign on them. On those squares, the player can build one of the following:
- Gate: It starts with a price of 10G, and when somebody passes by it, that player has to pay the price of the Gate and it increases by 10G. Platypunk, Slime, Birdo, Donkey Kong, Dragonlord and Bowser often build it.
- Circus Tent: The tent price starts being 100G, and if the owner lands on it they may increase it to 500G, 1000G, and finally, 2000G. The player has to pay 100G for each investment and the Circus Tent's value also increases by 100G. Luigi, Daisy, Toad and Yangus often build it.
- Balloon Landing: The owner can fly anywhere when they land on it. Other players have to pay 10% of the owner's salary. Mario, Bianca, Alena, Peach and Yoshi often build it.
- Shrine: The owner can get a 5% bonus on all their assets if they land on it. Other players have to pay 10% of all their assets, making it one of the most expensive buildings. But it can be easily bought out with 1000G, which is a small amount of money in the late stages of the game. Pudding, Kiryl, Jessica and Angelo often build it.
- Bar: The owner can invite everybody to a party in the bar, which means that everybody must warp to the Bar square. If other players land on it, they must give the owner a "gift" of 30GxLVL. Wario, Waluigi and Hassan often build it.
- Real Estate Agency: The owner can buy any ownerless shop. If other players land on it, they must "sleep" and their shops close for a turn. It is the least used building in all the game and the AI buys it very rarely.
- Wood Shop: It acts like a normal shop. But since it is worth 1000G, when it is built, the stock price of the area where it was built rises significantly. B, A and S-Ranked characters may use this strategy.
The Wood Shop costs 1000G to build while the other building types cost 200G. Only three of each buildings can exist on the board at the same time. Players can renovate a vacant plot at the start of their turn for a fee of 150G.

Additionally, there are also three support/guest characters that players can summon with the help of a card, but are not playable.

Minigames[edit]
When a player lands on casino square that player gets to play a game of chance. There are four of them:
- Itadaki Slot: The player starts a slot machine and stops the reels. In order to win prizes, the player needs to line up the pictures on the reels.
- Amida Dokan: This game takes place in the Warp Zone from Super Mario Bros. The player must choose one of the three pipes that interconnect partway through. The prize the player receives depends on which pipe Mario exits from.
- Gin no Tarot: The player is given some concealed Tarot cards, and they must choose two. The first card decides who is going to be affected, and the second card decides the event.
- Monster Colosseum: A list of four Dragon Quest monsters appear, and the players must choose one of them. After the monsters are chosen, they fight and the owner of the last monster alive wins some Gold.
