Block diagram of portable game machine of the present invention Explanatory drawing of the 1st storage table in the portable game machine of this invention Explanatory drawing of the 2nd storage table in the portable game machine of this invention flowchart

The first invention is a portable game machine. The portable game machine, speaker _{A 1, A 2, ......,} the speaker in the works with a voice of _A n (n is an integer of 3 or _{more) A 1, A 2, ......} , in the _{A n} Is a portable game machine in which a voice uttered by a participant is recorded in place of the speaker A _k (k is 1 to n) selected / designated from. The portable game machine includes a first storage unit, a second storage unit, a recording unit, a playback unit, and a control unit. The first storage unit stores synthesis information obtained by synthesizing voices of the remaining speakers other than the selected / designated speaker. The control unit reads out synthesis information obtained by synthesizing voices of a plurality of remaining speakers other than the selected / designated speaker from the first storage unit and causes the reproduction unit to reproduce the synthesized information. Means for causing a voice of a participant uttered on behalf of the selected / designated speaker to be acquired by the recording unit and stored in the second storage unit.

  The portable game machine preferably further includes a synthesis unit. Then, the control unit reads out from the first storage unit the synthesized information obtained by synthesizing the voices of the remaining speakers other than the selected / designated speaker when the reproducing unit reproduces the selected / designated speaker. The voice information of the participant uttered on behalf of is read out from the second storage unit, and the read out information is synthesized by the synthesizing unit. In particular, the control unit reads out from the first storage unit the synthesized information obtained by synthesizing the voices of the remaining speakers other than the selected / designated speaker when the reproducing unit reproduces the selected / designated speaker. Means for reading the voice information of the participant uttered on behalf of the second storage unit, combining the read information with the combining unit, and reproducing the combined information with the reproducing unit. It has.

Wherein the first storage unit, preferably, speaker A _1, A _2, ...... speaker is selected and designated from among the A _n is in correspondence with the case of the person (optional one person) , the first storage unit, the speaker _{a 1,} a 2, ......, from among the _{a n} pattern of (n-1) name of the speaker _n C ₁ ways be a combination of (n street) Composite information is stored. Speaker A _1, A _2, ......, corresponds to the case speakers is selected and designated from among the A _n is 2 persons (any two people), the first storage unit, the speaker _{a 1,} a 2, ......, stores composition information patterns (n-2) name _n C ₂ ways be a combination of speakers from among the _{a n (n (n-1} ) / 2 combinations) is Has been. Speaker A _1, A _2, ......, corresponds to the case speakers is selected and designated from among the A _n is three (any three), the first storage unit, the speaker _{a 1,} a 2, ......, from among the _{a n (n-3)} name of the speaker _n C ₃ ways to become a combination of (n (n-1) ( n-2) / 3 × 2 ways) Is stored. Speakers A ₁ , A ₂ ,..., _An are selected / designated by k (an integer satisfying 2 ≦ k ≦ (n−2): where n is an integer of 4 or more) in some cases, the first storage unit, the speaker _{a 1,} a 2, ......, pattern synthesis information for _n C _k as comprising the combination of (n-k) name of the speaker out of the _{a n} Is stored. Combining information of _n C ₁ patterns to be a combination of the above (n-1) names of speakers, combining information of _n C ₂ patterns to be a combination of the above (n-2) speakers, n-3) _n C ₃ patterns of combined information that is a combination of names of speakers,..., _n C _k patterns of combined information that are combinations of the above (n−k) names of speakers. When stored in one storage unit, those who can play (game) at a time with this portable game machine can freely expand to (1 to k). However, since the portable game machine is small, it seems that about 1 to 3 people can actually play at a time. That is, for example, it is considered that it is very severe in reality that a large number of people, such as 10 people, say that they play while looking at the screen of one portable game machine. Therefore, even if there is a large amount of synthesis information stored in the first storage unit, there are _n C ₁ patterns of synthesis information that is a combination of (n-1) speakers, and (n-2) speakers. It is considered that there are _n C ₂ patterns of combined information, and (n−3) combinations of _n C ₃ patterns of combined information. The composite information is preferably stored in the first storage unit in association with the selected / designated speaker. The participant's voice uttered on behalf of the selected / designated speaker is preferably stored in the second storage unit in association with the speaker.

  The storage information in the first storage unit or the second storage unit is stored in association with the image information of one scene displayed on the image display means of the playback unit (for example, a liquid crystal display unit included in the portable game machine). . Then, if necessary, the control means interlocks with the image displayed on the image display means to store information stored in the first storage unit (remaining information other than the selection / designated speaker stored in the first storage unit). (Synthetic information obtained by synthesizing the voices of a plurality of speakers) and, in some cases, information stored in the second storage unit (sent on behalf of the selected / designated speaker stored in the second storage unit) Participant's voice information) is read out and played back by the playback unit. By this playback, the voice of the person who played (the person who infused the voice on behalf of the selected / designated speaker) is in time with the voice of other speakers, or whether the atmosphere is correct. It can be judged and can enjoy play (game).

In the present invention, the first storage unit stores in advance synthesis information obtained by synthesizing the voices of the remaining speakers other than the selected / designated speaker. On the other hand, not a synthetic information that the voice of the rest of the plurality of speakers has been the synthesis of non-selection and designation speaker, for example, voice information appeared's A _1, voice information appeared's A _2, appeared in person A ₃ of voice information, it may be stored in a total of n-number of voice information of each person who said the voice information of ...... appeared's a _n separately, it is also conceivable to be synthesized read from the storage unit during play. In this case, the number of selected / designated speakers may be one, two,... (N-1), and the number of storages is n. On the other hand, in the case of storing composite information in which voices of the remaining speakers other than the selected / designated speakers are synthesized in advance as in the present invention, the number of selected / designated speakers increases. And that much storage capacity is required. However, if it is considered that each person's voice information is stored separately and read out from the storage unit for synthesis when played, synthesis of voice information is required unless a high-performance (expensive) CPU is installed. Is difficult to perform in a short time and in a timely manner. However, it is almost impossible to mount a high-performance (expensive) CPU in a low-priced portable (small) game machine. That is, when configured as in the present invention, it is possible to enjoy a realistic after-recording for the first time.

The second invention is a method. This method selects from among the speakers A ₁ , A ₂ ,..., A _n in a work having voices of speakers A ₁ , A ₂ ,..., A _n (n is an integer of 3 or more). This is a method of storing a voice uttered by a participant in place of a designated speaker A _k (k is 1 to n) in a portable game machine. This portable game machine holds synthesis information obtained by synthesizing voices of the remaining speakers other than the selected / designated speaker stored in the first storage unit. This portable game machine is in particular the portable game machine. The method, the portable game machine is the speaker A _1, A _{2, ......,} comprises a selection and designation step to select and specify the speaker A _k from the A _n. The method reads from the first storage unit synthesized information obtained by synthesizing voices of a plurality of remaining speakers other than the selected / designated speakers selected / designated by the portable game machine in the selection / designation step. A reproduction step for reproducing and reproducing. The method includes a storing step in which the portable game machine records a participant's voice uttered on behalf of the selected / designated speaker at the time of reproduction in the reproducing step, and stores the recorded voice in a second storage unit. In the method, it is preferable that the portable game machine further reads out synthesis information obtained by synthesizing voices of a plurality of remaining speakers other than the selected / designated speaker from the first storage unit, and stores the second storage. And a synthesizing / outputting step of reading out voice information of the participant uttered on behalf of the stored selected / designated speaker from the unit, and synthesizing and outputting the read out information.

The method preferably, speaker A _1, A _2, ...... speaker is selected and designated from among the A _n is in correspondence with the case of the person (optional 1 person), the first storage the section, the speaker _{a 1,} a 2, ......, storage pattern combining information of (n-1) name of the speaker _n C ₁ ways be a combination of from the _{a n} (n street) is Has been. Speaker A _1, A _2, ......, corresponds to the case speakers is selected and designated from among the A _n is 2 persons (any two people), the first storage unit, the speaker _{a 1,} a 2, ......, stores composition information patterns (n-2) name _n C ₂ ways be a combination of speakers from among the _{a n (n (n-1} ) / 2 combinations) is Has been. Speaker A _1, A _2, ......, corresponds to the case speakers is selected and designated from among the A _n is three (any three), the first storage unit, the speaker _{a 1,} a 2, ......, from among the _{a n (n-3)} name of the speaker _n C ₃ ways to become a combination of (n (n-1) ( n-2) / 3 × 2 ways) Is stored. Speakers A ₁ , A ₂ ,..., _An are selected / designated by k (an integer satisfying 2 ≦ k ≦ (n−2): where n is an integer of 4 or more) in response to some cases, the first storage unit, the speaker _{a 1,} a 2, ......, from among the _{a n (n-k)} name be a combination of speaker _n C _k Street Stores pattern synthesis information. Preferably, the synthesis information stored in the first storage unit is associated with the selected / designated speaker. Preferably, the voice of the participant uttered on behalf of the selected / designated speaker is stored in the second storage unit in association with the speaker.

The third invention is a program. This program, speaker _{A 1, A 2, ......,} A n (n is an integer of 3 or more) the speaker _{A 1,} A 2 in the work with the voice of, ..., selected from among the _{A n} · This is a program that causes a portable game machine that holds synthesized information obtained by synthesizing voices of a plurality of remaining speakers other than a designated speaker in a first storage unit to execute the method.

  Hereinafter, the present invention will be described with specific embodiments, but the present invention is not limited to the following embodiments. In the following embodiment, the case where n = 3 (the speakers (appearants) are three persons A, B, and C) will be described, but the same applies to the case where the technical idea is similarly n ≧ 4. It is obvious that it can be extended to. In the case of the three parties A, B, and C, if there are two selected / designated speakers, the remaining is only one. Therefore, in this case, the voices of the remaining speakers other than the selected / designated speaker stored in the first storage unit are only those of the single person, and are outside the scope of the present invention. In other words, in the present invention, when there are three persons A, B, and C, the number of selected / designated speakers is limited to one. When there are four speakers, A, B, C, and D, even if there are two selected / designated speakers, there are two speakers other than the selected / designated speakers stored in the first storage unit. In this case, up to two selected / designated speakers can be considered. However, even in this case, the number of selected / designated speakers may be limited to one. Furthermore, although there are four characters A, B, C, and D, there may be cases where D is not enjoyed. In such a case, there are four speakers A, B, C, and D, but there are three selected and designated speakers A, B, and C. That is, the number of speakers may not match the number of selected / designated speakers. However, even in such a case, the same can be considered. For example, when the selected / designated speaker is A, the remaining plural speakers other than the selected / designated speaker are B, C, and D, and when the selected / designated speaker is B, the speakers other than the selected / designated speaker are selected. The remaining speakers are A, C, and D. When the selected / designated speaker is C, the remaining speakers other than the selected / designated speaker are A, B, and D. In any case, the voice information of D is also synthesized with the synthesized information obtained by synthesizing the voices of the remaining speakers other than the selected / designated speaker stored in the first storage unit. Therefore, even in such a case, the difference is only whether or not the audio information of D is included in the synthesized information, and examples of patterns (combinations) stored in the first storage unit are (A, B, C). It can be seen that the same is true in both cases (A, B, C, D).

  1 to 4 show an embodiment of the portable game machine of the present invention. FIG. 1 is a block diagram of the portable game machine, and FIG. 2 is information stored in a first storage unit of the portable game machine. FIG. 3 is an explanatory diagram of (first storage table), FIG. 3 is an explanatory diagram of information (second storage table) stored in the second storage unit of the portable game machine, and FIG. 4 is a flowchart.

  In each figure, 1 is a portable game machine of the present invention. This portable game machine 1 speaks (acts) on behalf of one (any one) of A, B, and C in a story (story) in which three persons A, B, and C appear as characters. Is selected and designated, and the voices of the participants (players) who participated on behalf of the selected and designated person when the remaining two voices of the selected and designated A, B, and C are reproduced. Is configured to be recorded. The portable game machine 1 includes a storage unit 2, a recording unit (for example, a recording microphone) 3, a playback unit 4, an input unit 5, and a control unit 6. The storage unit 2 includes a first storage unit 2a, a second storage unit 2b, and a third storage unit 2c. The reproduction unit 4 includes an audio reproduction unit (for example, an audio reproduction speaker) 4a and an image reproduction unit (for example, a liquid crystal screen) 4b. Characters corresponding to the voice are displayed on the image reproduction unit (for example, a liquid crystal screen) 4b. That is, the audio information stored in the storage unit 2 (the first storage unit 2a and the second storage unit 2b) is reproduced as audio through the audio reproduction speaker 4a or as character information through the liquid crystal screen 4b. It has come to be played. The control unit 6 includes means 6a, means 6b, and composition unit 6c.

  The third storage unit 2c stores image information in each scene (scene) of the main story (works) reproduced by the image reproduction unit 4b. The third storage unit 2c may store image information of only one type of story (works) or may store image information of two or more types of stories (works). Of course, the image information is stored in association with the title of the story (works). Therefore, when a title is designated by the input unit 5, the control unit 6 reads the corresponding image information from the third storage unit 2c and reproduces it by the image reproduction unit 4b.

In the first storage unit 2a, audio information (A, B, C) of all the characters appearing in correspondence with each scene (scene) of the main story (works) reproduced by the image reproduction unit 4b ( Synthetic voice information in which voices uttered by all the participants (A, B, C) are synthesized (combined): Of course, depending on the scene, only two of (A, B) may be uttered. Even in such a case, it is considered to be synthesized speech information in which speech uttered by (A, B, C) is synthesized. The same applies hereinafter), and from all characters (A, B, C) who appear. Voice information by the remaining persons who have been excluded (one of A, B, and C) selected / designated by the input unit 5 (Appearing on the assumption that A is selected / designated (B , C) is synthesized (combined). A case in which voice information, synthesized voice information in which voices uttered by the participants (A, C) are synthesized (combined) and C is selected / designated assuming that B is selected / designated (Synthesized speech information obtained by synthesizing (combining) speech uttered by the performers (A, B)). That is, the synthesized speech information when the number of selected / designated speakers is 0 [synthetic speech information combining the speech of all three people (A, B, C)] and one selected / designated speaker. Synthesized speech information [(A, B) synthesized speech information in which voices of the two parties are combined, (A, C) synthesized speech information in which the voices of the two parties are combined, and (B, C) by the two parties synthetic speech information in total four sets of the synthetic speech information speech are _{combined] [(3 C 0 + 3} C 1) sets] is stored. Of course, among these synthesized voice information, the synthesized voice information of the three (A, B, C) is registered in association with a so-called model. Accordingly, when it is desired to reproduce the voice registered by the professional voice actor as a model, when this is input by the input unit 5, the control unit 6 (means 6a) causes each of the main stories to be reproduced by the image reproduction unit 4b. Corresponding to the scene (scene), (A, B, C) synthesized voice information uttered by a professional voice actor is read from the first storage unit 2a, and the corresponding audio is output from the audio playback unit 4a. The character corresponding to the voice is displayed on the image reproduction unit 4b. At this time, the character corresponding to the sound output from the sound reproducing unit 4a is displayed in a specific color, for example, so that it can be distinguished from other characters. For example, when a participant (player) wants to play a voice instead of A in response to this example reproduction, in response to A being input as a selected / designated speaker by the input unit 5 The control unit 6 (means 6a) reads (B, C) the synthesized voice information of the two from the first storage unit 2a corresponding to each scene of the main story reproduced by the image reproduction unit 4b. The corresponding sound is output from the sound reproducing unit 4a. At the same time, the control unit 6 (means 6a) reads (A, B, C) synthesized speech information from the first storage unit 2a and corresponds (corresponds) to the read synthesized speech information. The characters are displayed on the image reproduction unit 4b. It should be noted that the characters corresponding to the audio output from the audio reproduction unit 4a and the audio that the participant (player) intends to generate are displayed in a specific color, for example, so that they can be distinguished from other characters. It is like that. Thereby, the timing of utterance (pronunciation) can be known. Of course, the participant (player) may want to play a voice in place of B. In this case, in response to the input of B as the selected / designated speaker by the input unit 5, the control unit 6 (means 6a) reads (A, C) the synthesized voice information of the two from the first storage unit 2a corresponding to each scene (scene) of the main story played back by the image playback unit 4b, and plays back the voice. The corresponding sound is output from the unit 4a. At the same time, the control unit 6 (means 6a) reads (A, B, C) synthesized speech information from the first storage unit 2a and corresponds (corresponds) to the read synthesized speech information. The characters are displayed on the image reproduction unit 4b. It should be noted that the characters corresponding to the audio output from the audio reproduction unit 4a and the audio that the participant (player) intends to generate are displayed in a specific color, for example, so that they can be distinguished from other characters. It is like that. Participants (players) may want to play a voice in place of C. In this case, the control unit 6 (in response to the input of C as the selected / designated speaker by the input unit 5). The means 6a) reads the synthesized voice information of the two (A, B) from the first storage unit 2a corresponding to each scene (scene) of the main story played back by the image playback unit 4b, and the voice playback unit 4a To output the corresponding sound. At the same time, the control unit 6 (means 6a) reads (A, B, C) synthesized speech information from the first storage unit 2a and corresponds (corresponds) to the read synthesized speech information. The characters are displayed on the image reproduction unit 4b. It should be noted that the characters corresponding to the audio output from the audio reproduction unit 4a and the audio that the participant (player) intends to generate are displayed in a specific color, for example, so that they can be distinguished from other characters. It is like that.

  As described above, the control unit 6 (means 6a) reads out the synthesized voice information by the remaining persons other than the person who is input as the selected / designated speaker by the input unit 5 from the first storage unit 2a, and the voice reproduction unit as the voice. 4a, the synthesized voice information of all the members is read from the first storage unit 2a and displayed as characters on the image reproduction unit 4b. Accordingly, the participant (player) can select the designated / designated speaker. Speak instead of voice. When the voice uttered by the participant (player) is picked up by the recording unit 3, the control unit 6 (means 6a) stores the voice information of the picked up participant (player) in the second storage unit 2b. Let Of course, this storage is performed in association with the participant (player: speaker).

  When the above-mentioned storage control by the control unit 6 tries to enjoy the utterance (voice) by the participant (player: speaker) instead of the voice of the selected / designated speaker, this is input by the input unit 5. . That is, when the input unit 5 inputs the information “story (works); XX selected / designated speaker; A participant (player: speaker); OO”, the control unit 6 (means 6b) stores the third storage. Image information in each scene (scene) of the corresponding main story (works) is read from the unit 2c, and the image reproduction unit 4b reproduces the image. Along with this, the control unit 6 (means 6b) synthesizes synthesized speech information corresponding to the selected / designated speaker A [speech uttered by the performers (B, C) from the first storage unit 2a ( (Combined synthesized voice information)], and the voice information stored by blowing the participant (player: speaker); OO is read from the second storage unit 2b. The synthesizer 6c synthesizes (combines) the read audio information. Then, the synthesized voice information is played back by the voice playback unit 4a. As a result, since the case where he performed (speaks) as the character A instead of the professional voice actor is reproduced, the performance can be enjoyed.

Next, a usage pattern of the portable game machine 1 will be described with reference to FIG.
As described above, the third storage unit 2c of the portable game machine 1 holds image information in each scene (scene) of the main story (works) reproduced by the image reproduction unit 4b. The first storage unit 2a of the portable game machine 1 uses the synthesized voice information when the number of selected / designated speakers is zero [(A, B, C) synthesized voice information in which voices of all three persons are combined] Holding. In addition, synthesized speech information in the case where there is one selected / designated speaker [(A, B) synthesized speech information in which speech from two parties is combined and (A, C) synthesized speech in which speech from the two parties is combined. Information and (B, C) synthesized voice information in which the voices of the two parties are combined.

  First, the portable game machine 1 (input unit 5) selects and designates a desired speaker to be dubbed from the speakers A, B, and C. That is, the participant (player) specifies a speaker who desires post-recording. For example, if it is desired to play the role of A in the story (speak), A is input as the selected / designated speaker (selection / designation step).

  After the selection / designation step, the portable game machine 1 (means 6a) reads the image information stored in the third storage unit 2c and causes the image reproduction unit 4b to reproduce it. At the same time, the synthesized voice information combined with the voices of the two (B, C) stored in the first storage unit 2a in association with the image information is read out and reproduced by the voice reproduction unit 4a. In addition, the synthesized voice information combined with the voices of all the members (A, B, C) stored in the first storage unit 2a in association with the image information is read out and reproduced as characters by the image reproduction unit 4b (reproduction step). ).

  At the time of this reproduction step, the portable game machine 1 (means 6b) causes the recording unit 3 to pick up the voice of the participant (player) who speaks on behalf of the speaker A, and stores the voice picked up by the recording unit 3 in the second storage. Store in the unit 2b (storage step). As a result, the dubbing is ended.

  However, it is interesting to see what evaluation the post-record results are. That is, the portable game machine 1 (input unit 5) inputs “story (works); XX selected / designated speaker; A participant (player: speaker); As a result, the portable game machine 1 (means 6b) reads the image information in each scene (scene) of the corresponding main story (works) from the third storage unit 2c, and causes the image reproduction unit 4b to reproduce the image. In addition, the synthesized voice information in which the voices of (B, C) from the two parties are combined is read from the first storage unit 2a, and the voice information of the utterance by the participant (player: speaker); Is read. The portable game machine 1 (synthesizing unit 6c) synthesizes the read audio information. The portable game machine 1 outputs the synthesized voice information to the voice reproduction unit 4a (synthesizing / output step). As a result, the performance of the after-recording is judged by the listener.

  Each unit of the present invention described above can be configured by hardware, but can also be realized by a computer program. In this case, functions and operations similar to those of the above-described embodiment are realized by a processor that operates according to a program stored in the program memory.
