A game-program distribution system includes a broadcasting station for
transmitting a signal containing first data representative of a
television program and second data representative of a game program
related to the television program. A receiver operates for receiving the
signal transmitted from the broadcasting station, and demodulating the
received signal into the first data representative of the television
program and the second data representative of the game program. The
second data representative of the game program are downloaded from the
receiver into a game machine.
