Match-style 3D video game device and controller therefor
First Claim
1. A match-style 3D video game device controller that generates operation signals based on which game action is instructed, comprising:
- a pair of right and left main units configured to allow manual operation; and
motion detection units that are mounted in each main unit for individually detecting movement along at least two axes and outputting detected movement as operation signals.

Abstract
The present invention makes it possible to obtain operation signals to enable operation of a more complex game by individually detecting movement in at least two axial directions. The present invention provides a pair of right and left controllers 21 and 22 that generate operation signals based on which game action is instructed, each controller having a main section 210 in the shape of a glove in which the hand is inserted, and in which is mounted an acceleration sensor 2124 that individually detects movement in three axial directions x, y and z (front/back, right/left, up/down). Each detection signal is deemed an operation signal for game action.

6. A match-style 3D video game device comprising:
-
a monitor that is positioned at a prescribed height on the game machine housing and displays images;
a 3D video game device controller that generates operation signals based on which game action is instructed, including;
a pair of right and left main units configured to allow manual operation; and
motion detection units that are mounted in each main unit for individually detecting movement along at least two axes and outputting detected movement as operation signals, said 3D video game device controller causes the content of the operation thereof to be reflected in the game action;
game control means that controls the progress of the game based on operation signals from the controller;
display control means that creates three-dimensional images from the viewpoint of a virtual camera and displays them on the screen of said monitor;
head detection means that detects the position of the head of a player positioned in the play space in front of said monitor screen in at least the right and left directions within the space surrounding such head; and
viewpoint change means that moves the viewpoint of said virtual camera in accordance with the direction and amount of change in the detected head position. - View Dependent Claims (7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15)
