Also, here is a keen advice for you. Ideas are great but worth nothing without implementation. Do your homework and the part you "can" do. That's the research you mentioned. Make sure no one has you idea in a patent etc. One other thing, don't ever think your idea is unique because there is someone somewhere thinking the same thing. The question is, who will come to the market first. Then like Breezy said, hire a developer to work for you. If you are worried about cost, you can pay the developer with a percentage of profit from the game. It will still be a win for you.
