DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a game machine for playing a video game by obtaining predetermined information from a card with a bar code.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art As a conventional game device of this type, there is a portable type video game device provided with bar code reading means. In the game device, a card with a barcode which is separately purchased is read by a barcode reading means of the game device, and the game is developed based on the read information.

[0003] Therefore, the game device is provided for consumers and is not a business game device.

[0004]

Such a conventional game device is:
Regardless of how the game is developed by the operation of the player, that is, even if the player wins in a game that competes for the game, no reward can be obtained, so the degree of interest in the game tends to be low and the interest tends to be halved. Also, it cannot be used as it is for business use.

[0005] The present invention has been made in view of the above points, and an object thereof is to provide a bar with a bar code by developing a game, so that the user can become enthusiastic about the game and use the bar for business use. This is to provide a card game device with a code.

[0006]

In order to achieve the above object, according to the present invention, a bar code reading means reads a bar code of a card with a bar code, a game starts under the input information, and a monitor television. In a game device in which a user enjoys a video game by operating the operation means while watching the screen of FIG. 1, a coin detection means, a card ejection means for ejecting a card with a barcode, and a game ready state when coin insertion is detected by the coin detection means Game setting means for setting the game, a game start means for starting a game by inputting the card with a barcode, and when a coin insertion is detected by the coin detection means and when a player advantageously develops a video game. A card discharge control means for controlling the card discharge means to discharge a predetermined number of cards with a bar code; It was collected by the bar code with a card game apparatus equipped with.

[0007] When a coin is inserted, the card with a barcode is discharged, and the player can obtain the card, and by inputting the card with a barcode, can enjoy a video game under the input information. In the video game, when the player develops the game in an advantageous manner, the player can obtain a card with a barcode, so that the player is more enthusiastic about the game and doubles his interest.

[0008]

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS One embodiment of the present invention shown in FIGS. 1 to 3 will be described below. FIG. 1 is an overall perspective view of a bar-coded card game device 1 of the present embodiment.

The main body is supported by four columns having wheels movably, and a rectangular box-shaped case 2 has an upper front part obliquely cut away, and a monitor television 3 is arranged on the slope. .

[0010] A coin slot 4 is provided on the upper right side of the television screen.
There are buttons 5 and 6 for switching between a game for one player and a game for two players on the lower side of the television screen. Left one
The play button 5 sets a single-player game, and the right two-play button 6 sets a two-player game.

An operation console 7 protrudes toward the front,
Two sets of an attack button 8 and a character moving button 9 are arranged on the console 7 on the left and right, and a front edge of the console 7 has a notch on the left and right.
Is provided, and when the card C with a barcode is inserted, the barcode can be read. This console 7
Is an opening below, and serves as a card discharge port 11. Note that a speaker 12 is built in the case 2.

FIG. 2 is a block diagram of a control system of the card game device 1 with a bar code. The control boat 20 according to the microcomputer is controlled. The control boat 20 has a coin detecting device 21, a barcode reader 10, a play button 5, a play button 6, a play button 6, and an attack button 8 provided at the coin slot 4. The control boat 20 develops the game based on these signals, and the control signals are output to the image processing device 22, the audio device 23, and the card ejection device 24.

The image processing device 22 drives the monitor television 3 based on the control signal, the audio device 23 drives the speaker 12, and the card ejection device 24 ejects the card C with a barcode to the card ejection slot 11.

FIG. 3 shows a control procedure by the above control system. First, when a coin is inserted, the coin detecting device 21 detects a coin (step 1), and in the next step 2, the card ejection device 24 ejects the card C with a barcode.
Here, when two coins are inserted, two cards C with a barcode are ejected.

In the next steps 3 and 4, it is determined whether or not the 1 play button 5 has been pressed but the 2 play button 6 has been pressed. When the 1 play button 5 is pressed, the screen of the one-player game is displayed on the monitor television 3. (Step 5),
Thereafter, the game mode is set to the one-player game mode, and when the two-play button 6 is pressed, the screen of the two-player game is displayed on the monitor television 3 (step 10), and thereafter, the game mode becomes the two-player game mode.

The following is a description of a one-person game. When the one-play screen is displayed in step 5, the player waits for the input of one card C with a barcode (step 6). When the card C with a barcode is read by the barcode reader 10, the one-player game starts. (Step 9).

On the screen of the monitor TV 3, an enemy character and an ally character appear one by one, and a fight starts. The game is developed in such a manner that the player attacks the enemy character by pressing the attack button 8 and avoids the attack of the enemy character by the character movement button 9.

If the player wins (step 8), one card C with a barcode is ejected (step 9) and the game ends (step 15), but if the player loses, there is no ejection of the card C with a barcode. The game is terminated as it is (step 15). After the game, the process returns to step 1.

On the other hand, when the two-play button 6 is pressed (step 4), a two-play screen is displayed (step 10).
When the play mode is entered, first, input of two cards C with barcodes is waited for (step 11).
The human game starts (step 12).

[0020] Both the enemy character and the ally character appear two each, and the battle begins. The two players fight each other by operating the attack button 8 and the character movement button 9, and can cooperate to attack one enemy character.

When the player wins (step
13) The two cards C with barcodes are ejected (step 14), and if the game is lost, the game is terminated (step 15).

Since the input information of the card C with a barcode is different from each other, and the characters appearing there and their attacking power and defense power are also different, the manner of developing the game differs depending on the type of the card C with a barcode.

As described above, the card game device 1 with a bar code of this embodiment can obtain a card C with a bar code by inserting coins, and can use the card C with a bar code or another bar. The game can be enjoyed using the card C with a code.

If the player wins the game, the card C with a barcode can be further obtained, so that the player becomes more and more enthusiastic about the game, and thus does not lose interest. The bar-coded card game device 1 has a character as a vending machine for the bar-coded card C, and can be used for business use.

[0025]

According to the present invention, a card with a bar code can be obtained by inserting coins and a game can be enjoyed.
If the game is developed advantageously, a card with a barcode can be further obtained, so that the user can be enthusiastic about the game and double his interest. It can also be used for business use.
