The Idea

This idea is very simple. Almost 40% of American housholds own a video game console. Each console, whether it's Sony Playstation, XBOX 360 and even the most recent Wii, does not have a poker game that is multi player. Why can't you play a multi player poker game with these consoles? because everyone would cheat. There's no way of hiding your cards on the TV without everyone else seeing. The only way to play poker right now, with friends, is to get chips, a deck of cards and gather around a table. My idea is to create a poker game/console that looks similar to the poker games out there now but instead of showing the cards on the TV screen, your actually holding a wireless controller with a small screen that displays your cards and allows you to hold, max bet, ect. All chips, bets and cards are processed on the TV screen which also saves time. No more counting chips, or shuffling cards or picking up when done. Just turn the game/console off. An adapter will allow 10 players at a time.

I thought of this idea when I was...

I thought of this the other day when my roomate came home with the World Series of Poker game for our Wii. We both played it once and will probably never play it again because we can't play eachother.

Rumor has it that the wii supports interaction with the nintendo DS

The DS has a screen and controls and is fairly inexpensive (as is the wii).

Go crazy.

I'd buy it if it was a 3d connection to Party Poker or Bodog. Poker with real cards and real chips is hard to beat.
