A game apparatus stores a history in relation to a game operation as replay data in a memory, and displays a replay image on the basis of the stored replay data on a monitor. A CPU of the game apparatus creates highlight scene positional information indicating a at least temporal position of a highlight scene in the replay image on the basis of a highlight scene position designating operation, stores the created highlight scene positional information by bringing it into association with the replay data in the memory, and displays a time-line image representing a temporal position of the highlight scene in the replay image on the monitor on the basis of the highlight scene positional information when the replay image is displayed on the monitor.

Game program, game apparatus and game system configured to use replay data to create a highlight scene

An instruction target object which is located outside a predetermined area of a virtual space is detected at an interval of the unit time, and a substitute icon associated with the instruction target object is displayed in a screen. Next, after it is detected that a first operation has been performed on the substitute icon from the operation data, it is detected that a second operation has also been performed. Based on the pointed position in the screen when the second operation was detected, the instruction target object associated with the substitute icon processed by the first operation is caused to perform a predetermined motion.

A flat type heat pipe for mounting a heating power element, which is capable of forming an optionally shaped heat transferring path with high accuracy, which is of a thin type and to which fins are easily attached. The flat type heat pipe includes at least two aluminum plates substantially in parallel with each other and brazed to each other so as to form a heat transferring path therebetween. The flat type heat pipe also includes an operating liquid which fills the heat transferring path. Because the heat transferring path is formed by means of press molding, punching, laser beam machining, or cutting various shapes of heat transferring paths can be formed finely and with high accuracy. The flexible flat type heat pipe can be made thin, which allows for a variety of uses. Grooves and wicks can be disposed in the heat transferring path, thereby improving the heat conductivity. Because the surface is flat, the fins can be easily attached thereto, thereby a satisfactory radiation effect can be obtained.

Flat type heat pipe
