ABSTRACT:
A video-game apparatus that allows the displaying of secret-personalized information to each player of multiple-player-video-games, on one cathode ray tube or CRT. A panel of opaque material partitions the view of a television CRT into two independent areas; a left-side and a right-side. The panel is held vertical and perpendicular in front of the television CRT. There are numerous ways that the panel can be held in front of the CRT. However, in the main embodiment the panel is attached to the surface of the CRT screen by suction cups. Two video-game players, a left-player and a right-player, are positioned so that they can only see their respective side or view of the CRT screen. Images are displayed on the CRT screen so that the left-player's information is displayed on the left-side of the CRT, and the right-player's information is displayed on the right-side. The source of these images could come from computers, home-video game systems, CATV, or broadcast stations.
