There will be a change in the team structure of my custom team. Further, the options 62b to 62f can be selected at the time of execution of a battle game described later, and here, each of the options 62b to 62f cannot be selected.

  For example, when “Team A” is selected on the team selection screen 60 in FIG. 6, the team organization screen 70 shown in FIG. 7 is displayed on the monitor 2.

  The team organization screen 70 shown in FIG. 7 includes a my custom team window 71 and a candidate player window 72. In the my custom team window 71, a team on which the name of the team selected on the team selection screen 60 is displayed. A name field 71a, an option 71b including display of positions and names of player characters constituting the My Custom Team, and a marker M1 for displaying an option 71b in a selected state are displayed. A team name field 72a in which any one of team names "A team" to "L team" is displayed, an option 72b including display of positions and names of player characters constituting the team displayed in the team name field 72a, and A marker M2 for displaying the option 72b in the selected state is displayed.

  The team name and the player character name displayed in the candidate player window 72 are read from the default team recording unit 23a.

  Further, in the my custom team window 71, only the position is written in the initial state, and the name of the player character is blank. However, when the my custom team 62a is selected on the team selection screen 60, the my custom team record is recorded. Based on the data stored in the unit 23b, the position and name of each player character are displayed.

  In addition, either one of the markers M1 and M2 is displayed in white to indicate that it is active, and the directional key 37 of the controller 3 is operated in the left-right direction to activate the marker M1, M2. In addition, by operating the direction key 37 in the vertical direction, the markers M1 and M2 in the active state move up and down and are selected in the respective windows 71 and 72. The state options 71b and 72b can be changed. In addition, by operating the ○ button 35 of the controller 3, the team displayed in the team name column 72a is sequentially switched as “A team” → “B team” → “C team”. Along with this, the names of the player characters belonging to the switched team are displayed as options 72b.

  Then, by selecting a position from the option 71b of the my custom team window 71, and operating the X button 36 in a state where the desired player character is selected from the option 72b of the candidate player window 72, The selected player character can be newly registered or replaced, and the registered player character can be deleted by operating the □ button 34, which allows the player to freely It is possible to organize a team for my custom team.

  In the default team recording unit 23a, a unique ability parameter is set for each player character of each team, but each player character newly registered in the My Custom Team here has a candidate player window 72. Only the name and appearance data of the player character selected from the above are assigned, and a uniform value (for example, the lowest value that can be set) is assigned as the initial value of the ability parameter.

  When the □ button 34 of the controller is operated on the team organization screen 70, the name of the selected my custom team and information on the added, changed, and deleted player characters are stored in the my custom team recording unit 23b. After the recording, the acceptance of the team organization operation is terminated, and the display on the monitor 2 returns to the initial menu screen 50.

  Also, when the custom team setting 50b is selected on the initial menu screen 50, the ability changing means 21d operates, and predetermined information is read from the my custom team recording unit 23b and the ability change item recording unit 23d. An operation for changing ability parameters of player characters belonging to a custom team is accepted.

  FIG. 8 is an explanatory diagram showing an example of the ability allocation screen 80 displayed when the custom team setting 50b is selected.

  The ability allocation screen 80 is composed of a player information window 81 and an ability change item list window 82. The player information window 81 is read from the my custom team recording unit 23b, and any one of the my custom teams. Player information such as the name and position of the player character, and the ability parameters set for the player character are displayed, and the ability change item utility window 82a (when the ability change item is used) is displayed in the ability change item list window 82.

  Here, the player information window 81 sequentially switches and displays the player information for each player character recorded in the my custom team recording unit 23b each time the left / right direction is operated by the direction key 37 of the controller 3. ing.

  In addition, “meet rate”, “long hit strength”, “defense strength”, “ball speed”, “stamina”, and “ball type” displayed as ability parameters in the player information window 81 start with a throwing event described later. This is a numerical value of the player character's ability at various game events executed in the baseball game. For example, as the values of “meet rate” and “hitting power” are larger, the player is hit as a batter at the pitching event. The probability of successful hitting is high, and the distance of the hit ball when hitting is large. The larger the value of “Defense”, the faster the movement speed when defensive as a fielder in a defensive event. In addition, the larger the values of “ball speed” and “stamina”, the faster the ball speed when pitching as a pitcher in a pitching event, and more pitches are possible. It has become such a way that. The symbol displayed as “ball type” is the ball type used when pitching as a pitcher in a pitching event, and “ST”, “SL”, “CV”, “FK”, “CP”, “SH”. Shows straight, slider, curve, fork, change-up, and shoot, respectively. Also, in the example shown in the figure, the ball types that can be thrown by symbols indicated by black characters, such as “ST”, “SL”, and “CV”, are designated as “FK”, “CP”, and “SH”. Symbols indicated by white letters such as indicate the types of balls that cannot be thrown. Of the ability parameters, “ball speed”, “stamina”, and “ball type” are displayed only when the position of the player character is a pitcher.

  On the ability allocation screen 80, when the direction key 37 of the controller 3 is operated up and down, the marker M in the ability change item list window 82 moves up and down to change the utility 82a in the selected state. Each time one of the effects 82a is selected and the X button 36 of the controller 3 is operated, the number 82b of the selected effects 82a is displayed by subtraction one by one. The ability parameter displayed in the information window 81 is changed.

When one or more opponent custom teams are read by the opponent custom team reading means 21g, the names of the opponent custom teams are displayed as options 62b to 62f.

  In the case of the individual battle mode, an arbitrary team is selected from all the above teams as a team operated by the player and a team operated by another player of the opponent or controlled by the computer. In the pennant trace mode, any team can be selected from the A to L teams and the My Custom Team 62a as the team operated by the player. In the tournament mode, all the players can be selected. However, any team other than the teams already selected by other players can be selected from all the above teams.

  FIG. 9 is an explanatory diagram showing a throwing event screen 90 displayed on the monitor 2 at a throwing event that is one of the events executed in the baseball game in any of the above modes.

  This throwing event is performed by the player character (batter character) 90b of the other team against a ball thrown from the player character (pitcher character) 90a of one team toward the reaching position set by the player or the computer. It is an event in which a scene that attempts a hit at a hitting position set by a player or a computer is developed, and the ball type of the ball thrown by the pitcher character 90a can be thrown as an ability parameter of the “ball type” of the pitcher character. The pitch type is selected by the player's operation or by computer control, and the pitch of the pitcher character is the “ball speed” of the pitcher character. , Is set according to "stamina". The success or failure of the hitting by the batter character 90b is determined based on the timing at which the hitting instruction is given and the distance between the reaching position and the hitting position. The higher the ability parameter value of “”, the more advantageous the judgment is made to the batter character, such as judging that the hitting is successful even if the reaching position and the striking position are far apart, and the higher the ability parameter of “long striking power” When the hit is successful, control is performed so that the flight distance of the hit ball is increased.

  When the custom team is selected as the team operated by the player (first player in the tournament mode), the ability change item recording unit is displayed during the progress of the baseball game in any of the above modes. When the enabling condition of any ability change item recorded in 23d is satisfied, a process for enabling the ability change item is performed.
