>Nintendo has been "dead" a few times now, but they've been going since the 1800s or something when they made playing cards. They also have the capacity to come up with crazy new stuff nobody ever expected. Maybe they're not doing well right now, but I have a hard time believing they're "dead."

They made "Hanafuda" cards, which are a very old, traditional set of cards, sometimes used for gambling. Comparing it to poker I think is a somewhat inaccurate yet simultaneously fair comparison [2].
