Well you can mimic that behavior by having a class that handles user console input (controller) and another class that deals with rendering the model on the console output (view).
It’s not really what MVC is for, but if you really want to do it…
Edit: Ok, I’m going to give you some concrete ideas about the controller. You know that in a GUI app, you have the so-called “message loop”. You will need to mimic this in your console app. Try to start a parallel thread that receives console input in an infinite loop. When input is received, call a handler method from the controller class.
