Abstract:
There is provided a game video distribution device that permits distribution of game videos with higher value for users through the use of game-specific information. The game distribution device includes video generating means that generates a game video selected by a user, related information acquiring means that acquires related information in which scene identification information identifying individual scenes included in the game video is related to time information representing a time period during which each of the scenes is reproduced, related display information generating means which, in accordance with the related information, generates related display information identifiably displaying a temporal location of each of the scenes relative to an entire time span of the game video, and composing means that generates a composite of the generated video and the related display information.
Abstract:
A game delivery device and so on are implemented which enable an operable object to be operated with increased ease, in the case where game images designed to be executed in a dedicated game device are delivered to a terminal. The game delivery device includes execution means for executing a plurality of game programs designed to be executed in a dedicated game device in accordance with operation information; game program selection means for selecting one of the game programs on the basis of a selection instruction from a terminal; delivery means for delivering, to the terminal, image information based on execution of the selected game program; play mode acquisition means for acquiring a play mode selection instruction indicating whether the selected game program is to be played in a normal mode or an auxiliary mode; and auxiliary means for, when the auxiliary mode is selected, providing an auxiliary function that makes an operation of an operable object of the selected game program easier than the operation of the operable object designed to be performed in the dedicated game device.

Abstract:
Methods and apparatus provide for: receiving a selected video, over a network from at least one network server, of previously executed content of an application program previously executed by the at least one network server; executing the selected video for display to a user of the information processing terminal, and receiving an execution request initiated by the user while the selected video is being executed and during a period of time when the application program is not being executed by the at least one network server; and sending the execution request for executing the application program to the at least one network server over the network, where the execution request is associated with a specified point in the selected video that shows the previously executed content of the application program.
