Abstract
A Mahjong game machine has a body and four player pads. The body includes a microprocessor for executing a Mahjong program and a main display for displaying a series of contents associated with the progress of the game. Each player pad has a L-shaped section, and thus consists of a vertical portion and a horizontal portion. Said vertical portion of each player pad has a hand display for displaying tiles in the hand of each player in such a manner that those tiles are not exposed to the other players, and a menu display section for sequentially displaying a menu for corresponding actions that the player should perform. Said horizontal portion of each player pad has a button section for inputting an action corresponding to the menu displayed on said menu display section.
