Abstract
There is provided a game apparatus which can display an advice data appropriate to the sate of game development and player's operation so that the player can master a high-level and complicated game while playing the game. The game apparatus has a control section through which the player plays the game and a game computing section for computing the game and displaying a game image on a display, based on an operation signal from the control section. The game computing section computes and outputs advice data depending on the state of game on the display.
Claims38
A method of generating operation advice, comprising:
- computing a game in accordance with an operation signal from a game operating device, operated by a player, and a predetermined game program to display a game image on a display;
- and
- generating advice data for the player depending on a state of the game, including judging an operational state of the game operating device from an operational history of the player, automatically generating an operation advice image of the game operating device, and displaying the operation advice image on the display depending on the operational state,
- wherein the operational state includes a state of an opponent and the operation advice includes information designed to assist in defeating the opponent based in part on the state of the opponent.
A method of generating operation advice for a video game, comprising:
- generating a game in accordance with an operation signal from a game operating device, operated by a player, and a predetermined game program to display a game image on a display;
- and
- computing advice data for the player depending on a state of the game, including judging data of gauges used in the game, automatically generating an advice image which advises the player on a current state of a gauge and displaying the advice image on the display depending on the judging data.
A method of generating operation advice for video game apparatus, comprising:
- computing a game in accordance with an operation signal from a game operating device, operated by a player, and a predetermined game program to display a game image on a display;
- and
- automatically generating advice data for the player depending on a state of the game, wherein displaying of identical advice images is limited to a predetermined number of times.
A recording medium on which is recorded a control program for controlling a data processor, the recording medium including instructions for causing the data processor to:
- compute a game in accordance with an operation signal from a game operating device, operated by a player, and a predetermined game program to display a game image on a display;
- and
- generate advice data for the player depending on a state of the game, including judging an operational state of the game operating device from an operational history of the player, automatically generating an operation advice image of the game operating device, and displaying the operation advice image on the display depending on the operational state,
- wherein the state of the game includes a state of an opponent and the advice data includes information designed to assist in defeating the opponent based in part on the state of the opponent.
A recording medium on which is recorded a control program for controlling a data processor, the recording medium including instructions for causing the data processor to:
- generate a game in accordance with an operation signal from a game operating device, operated by a player, and a predetermined game program to display a game image on a display;
- and
- compute advice data for the player depending on a state of the game, including judging data of gauges used in the game, automatically generating an advice image which advises the player on a current state of a gauge and displaying the advice image on the display depending on the judging data.
A recording medium on which is recorded a control program for controlling a data processor, the recording medium including instructions for causing the data processor to:
- compute a game in accordance with an operation signal from a game operating device, operated by a player, and a predetermined game program to display a game image on a display;
- and
- automatically generate advice data for the player depending on a state of the game, wherein displaying of identical advice images is limited to a predetermined number of times.
