ABSTRACT:
A television game apparatus employing electronic means to generate target images on a television screen and a device located away from the screen for taking aim and generating additional images on the screen, such as images simulating missiles such as balls shot, shells, torpedoes, etc., which are adapted to effect a score when they intercept other images on the screen. The aiming device and at least one manually operated switch for playing the game are incorporated in an arm or frame-like structure which is removable and easily applied to the housing of a television set such as by clamps, suction cups, magnets or other means. In one form, the securing means for the arm or frame is adjustable to accommodate it to different television cabinets of different sizes and configurations. In another form, the auxiliary missile and target generating electronic ciruitry is incorporated in the housing defined in the arm and sighting structure which is removably attached to the television cabinet. The sighting means may be fixed or movable at the end of the arm or structure and in a particular form, it is pivoted thereon by means of a handle or pair of handles to permit a sighting means thereof to be aimed at different locations on the screen of the television image generating monitor so as to vary the direction of one or more movable images generated on the television screen. The apparatus may also be employed to support and preposition a radiation generating game device such as a light beam generating simulated gun which, when a trigger or pushbutton operated switch is closed by hand generates and directs a pulse of light at the television viewing screen for scoring purposes.
