A control circuit controls the video game apparatus in the following manner.

In a two-player mode as selected, the output signal from the joystick whose start key is operated is supplied to the main frame. In turn, a game is started. With the progression of the game, the output signals from the first and second joysticks are alternately applied to the main frame.
