<p>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To operate a game by natural actions of a player by receiving light from a lighting means operated by the player, detecting the spatial position of the lighting means against a display image plane, and controlling the game based on the detected spatial position. SOLUTION: An operating means 20 has a shape simulating maraca of a percussion instrument, and plural embedded lighting parts (LED) in the oval body part. The operating means 20 is provided with a button on the grip. When this operating means 20 is grasped and shaken with a hand, the vibrating state is detected by deflecting a built-in spring to switch on, and at the same time, built-in particulate beads hit the inner wall to produce hitting sound. Light from the lighting part of this operating means 20 is detected at a light-receiving part 15 on the game device body side, and the spatial position of the operating means 20 in the video monitor 13 from this detected signal by a position detecting board 17, and the music game proceeds with this position detected results.</p> |
