Description

ABSTRACT:
An amusement device for competitive playing of a simulated sport, such as table tennis, in which the successful performance of an act which forms part of the sport, for example the striking of a ball with a paddle, is simulated by the magnetic actuation of a switch (which may produce itself an acoustical simulation of the sound of hitting a ball or may do so through electrical circuits including a loudspeaker) when each member in the device representing one of the paddles is brought, by control manipulaton (remote, if desired) performed by a player, to the proper position with respect to the device member representing the ball so as to effect such magnetic switch actuation, such switch, in turn, being capable of controlling one or more counting members in the device.
