Abstract

[Problem] The present invention intends to provide a scrolling screen apparatus, a method for scrolling screen, and a game apparatus, which prevent from scrolling display screen by user's misoperation and scroll display screen with intuitive operation.[Method of solution] A control device 5 of the present invention scrolls the display screen by the amount of displacement corresponding to the displacement vector of each input coordinate, in a displacement scroll mode between the input of the touch coordinates and the input of the release coordinates to the coordinate input device 3 and, meanwhile the control device 5 scrolls the display screen by the amount of displacement corresponding to the scroll distance which is the sum total of the distances between the touch coordinates, each sampling coordinate and release coordinates read from the coordinate storage device 4, in an inertia scroll mode after the input of release coordinates. For example, the present invention scrolls the display screen by the amount of displacement corresponding to the sliding distance of the user's finger on the display.
