This article is marked as NSFW! The WiiWare Sexy Poker is a port of Sexy Poker 2009, which was released on various mobile phone systems. It adds optimized artwork in glorious 480p Widescreen, pointer controls, and unlockable customizable card backs as well as each girl having their own voice acting, unique background, and losing & winning music. Unfortunately, it also contains notable omissions from its mobile counterpart, such as Video Poker (more on that later).

It also features every girl from its I-Mode Japanese mobile phone counterpart, Oneesan Mekuri. Despite this, it was not released in Japan despite said country getting both the Ecchi and non-Ecchi versions of its I-Mode counterpart.

The original series features nudity, but it was censored in the WiiWare version due to the Australian government refusing to give its gaming classification and banning sales of the game unless the stripping was toned down.

Looks like I need to remove some clothes.

— Repetitive line from every single girl in the game

To do:
Document the uncensored prototype build from the TeraRelease.

This prototype is documented on Hidden Palace.

Unused Graphics#

Toplessness#

As seen in the TeraRelease prototype, the game originally had the option to strip a 5th clothing piece (the bra) to reveal the girl's bare chest. Just like the rest of the clothing pieces you remove from the girls, the bra is a separate object and not part of the art showing the girls posing.

Interestingly, there is no 6th stripping layer nor separate panty sprites, indicating that the WiiWare version wasn't willing to go all the way, unlike its "full" mobile counterpart. It's worth noting that the amount of stripping layers of each girl in the final game, 4, is the same as its "soft"/non-ecchi mobile counterparts.

The coding to allow stripping the 5th layer in-game and in the album is absent from the final release, nor is it allowed if the TeraRelease prototype save data with the 5th clothing strip unlocked is imported into the final build and then attempting to view the unlocked 5th clothing strip in the final build's album, similar to the mobile counterpart of importing a "full" nudity version save (with the 5th and 6th clothing strip unlocked) into a "soft" censored version.

Note that these graphics are included in all of the WiiWare versions, including the Australian version. The fact they dodged a Hot Coffee situation is surprising. This article is marked as NSFW!

It's hard to tell whether it's a bra, a weird fruit, or an odd-looking plunger.

It's ironic how the first girl that featured actual top nudity is part of the authority.

Locked Blackjack#

Jack Black ain't getting any peaches.

In the mobile games, Blackjack is unlocked per girl by beating them in Texas Hold 'Em. A "locked" graphic exists in the WiiWare version, but here Blackjack is available from the start of each girl as soon as you unlock the girl.

Video Poker#

This ain't your grandma's Joker Poker!

Video Poker, unlocked in the mobile games by beating a girl in Blackjack, is absent from the WiiWare port, though its menu icon graphics are present.

Early Title#

The game was originally going to be titled "Sexy Poker Manga", much like the 2006 title of the same name. Given that the girls' artwork are vastly different from the 2006 title compared to the 2009 WiiWare counterpart, it was eventually renamed into simply "Sexy Poker".
