Default NEW IDEA NOT ONE COMPETITOR

THIS IS JUST A BEGINNING IDEA BUT THERE IS A GAME THAT IS IN ALL MAJOR ARCADE'S CALLED DDR MAX DANCE REVOLUTION.WHAT IF SOME ONE COULD GET MAYBE 15 - 20 MACHINE'S AND IMPORT TODAY'S SONG'S FROM RADIO AND PUT IT ON THE GAME AND STEPS INCLUDED.THEN PLAY OFF PLAYSTATION IDEA ON THE GAME MAKE A WORKOUT THAT PEOPLE WOULD COME TO DO. HAVE FUN OR FIND POEPLE THAT WOULD TEACH OTHERS IN PRIVATE HOW TO PLAY AND THEN MAYBE A WORKOUT CLASS FOR DIFFERENT STYLES OR DIFFERENT SKILL LEVELS.

REMINDER IS JUST A THOUGHT DOES ANYONE THINK THIS IDEA COULD WORK?

Default First...

Writing in all capital letters is considered YELLING. And as far as message forum etiquette goes... it is rude.

On to your idea...

The only way to know whether it would work is to do it. Because as you say... no-one else is doing it.

And while that is a good thing. Inasmuch as there not being any competition. It is a bad thing because you can't see how others have gone about it to make it work. You would be the one using trial and error figuring it all out.

And with such a HUGE investment required - just to see if it would work - it is NOT a wise thing for most people to do.

There are other far more profitable businesses you can start that require far less start up money. For instance... in an upcoming issue of The Great Ideas Letter we will be revealing the test results of a business we tested in which we have created $2,142.00 of repeat monthly business using a 15 word ad. And we did it in one month. And further more... we don't do any of the "work."

Default Your idea, Joe

Hey Joe,

Interesting idea. I agree with Michael that it would be a formidable project to finance. So if you're looking for the highest probability of a return on your investment in a business I would look elsewhere. BUT... thank you for presenting us with a unique idea. We don't just gain from the ones we pursue, but the ones we can think over as well.

Of course, if you have more than a passing interest in this and you have the determination/passion needed to raise a few hundred thousand dollars to get the project started, then go for it.

Success,

Erik

Default Like This?!...

Please forgive my ignorance...

Isn't the arcade-dance-workout a common thing?
