Abstract

See full text

In a video game apparatus, as a game progresses, whether or not an operation section has been operated by a player within a permissible timing set in a reference table is judged by a judgement section, and the game success or failure is determined upon the judgement result. The judgement section outputs a judgement signal in accordance with the judgement result, and the judgement signal is counted by a judgement counting section. And, for instance, if a judgement signal corresponding to a game success is counted up until it reaches a preset value, the player is judged as an expert in the game, and the permissible timing range set in the reference table is automatically adjusted to make it narrower and to make the game more difficult for the player. Additionally, in order to change a game picture image at an instant in response to the success or failure of the game, at least two read out heads are provided both accessing a disk, and one of the heads is made effective for the display of a game picture image in response to the judgement result in the judgement section.
