Title:
TELEVISION GAME MACHINE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/1986/005112
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The game machine has two display units, and one image-synthesizing half-mirror. One display unit is adapted to display images of a background and an object which are not controlled directly by a player, and the other an image including an image of an object which can be controlled to a predetermined extent by a player. The half-mirror is adapted to reflect the image formed on one display unit, and produce a mirror image thereof at the front side or rear side of an image on the other display unit. The player sees the image appearing on the latter display unit as well as the mirror image of the image on the former display unit. Since the above image and mirror image are spaced at a suitable distance, a three-dimensional view can be obtained. One display unit or the half-mirror is, in some cases, supported so that it can be moved in a suitable direction.
