More Information
Summary:A controller including a cross key pad is improved so that an erroneous input relating to inputs from the cross key pad is suppressed. In a casing of the controller, a pressing portion is positioned at each of four distal ends of the cross key pad. Directly below each pressing portion, a pressing amount detection sensor which outputs 256 levels of pressing amount data corresponding to a pressing amount of the pressing portion is provided. The controller includes a threshold value recording module (223) in which a threshold value, which is a reference for recognizing that there has been a press when each pressing portion is pressed, is recorded in association with the pressing portion. When the pressing portion is pressed and the pressing amount data is input to a determination module (224), the determination module (224) allows generation of operation data based on the pressing amount data only when the pressing amount identified by the pressing amount data is equal to or more than the corresponding threshold value.
