The key selector 10 includes a game selector 11 having a game execution key designated by a user, and a game adjuster 12 having a game control key designated by the user.

This key selection unit 10 is used to perform a call function in normal times.

The game selection unit 11 is configured by a user designating a start key, a stop key, and an end key on a keypad by a program, such as game start, game pause, and game end. Choose whether or not to perform.

In addition, the game adjusting unit 12 may be composed of a direction key (12a-l2d) to allow the user to move in the desired direction, and a modification key (12e) to allow the user to transform to the desired shape to proceed with the game. Will be.

The operation and effects of the present invention configured as described above will be described in detail with reference to FIG. 3.

First, when the user presses the START key of the game selector 11, the microprocessor 40 processes the start signal so that the game can be performed smoothly through a program of the reception signal processor (interrupt vectorer) 20. Sent to).

Upon receiving this signal, the microprocessor 40 enters the game mode 42 as shown in FIG. 3 and resides in the game temporary storage 35 to store a game program stored in the storage 30. Internal operation will be performed.

Then, according to the adjustment signal of the left, right, up and down direction keys 12a-12d or the modifier keys 12e of the game control unit 12, the microprocessor 40 controls to play a game corresponding to the input.

According to the control signal of the microprocessor 40, the display control unit 50 controls the liquid crystal display unit 60 to allow the user to enjoy the game while watching the game state.
