Sega springs a surprise game on us.

SEGA RAISES ANTE WITH SEGA CASINO

DS Title Offers 11 Games of Casino Action

SAN FRANCISCO and LONDON (September 12, 2005) SEGA® of America, Inc.

and SEGA Europe Ltd. today announced that they will publish SEGA

Casino™ for the Nintendo DS™ System. SEGA Casino deals out plenty of

gambling action for gamers on-the-go with a casino experience that

features five games, and six unlockable games.

Players can place their bets on SEGA Casino’s Roulette, Craps,

Baccarat, and other unlockable games, including Chuck-a-Luck, Keno,

and three Video Poker variants (Jacks or Better, Double Bonus, and

Deuces Wild). They can improve their skills by taking on AI opponents

solo, or they can play wirelessly with up to four friends by using a

single cartridge and downloading SEGA Casino temporarily onto other

players’ DS units. Card game fans will be able to challenge friends in

heated rounds of Black Jack, Texas Hold ‘em, and the unlockable 7 Card

Poker!

Adding variety, players can double-down on SEGA Casino’s three

gameplay styles: Free Mode, in which players can unlock games;

Wireless Mode, which allows players to compete against four other

friends in multiplayer card action via the Nintendo DS wireless

connection; and Casino Mode, in which players attempt to turn $1,000

into millions by winning tournaments. Card sharks and big-spenders can

even unlock higher-limit Casino Rooms!

SEGA Casino will be available this holiday at retailers nationwide for

an MSRP of $29.99.

What is with DS and poker?
Also, what is with Sega and casinos?

It probably comes from Sammy's love of pachinko...
