Analysis of the Relationship between Game Centers and Law of Regulations

Focusing on Regulations by Related Ordinances in Each Prefecture

Abstract

Video games and game arcades are considered to have taken root in Japanese society in various ways. However, nationwide laws and regulations against video game arcades have been in place for a long time in Japan, and new regulations have emerged for video games. The purpose of this presentation is to clarify the relationship between game centers and the law of regulations that apply to them. In this presentation, I will mainly survey the relevant ordinances of each prefecture, organize the actual situation of regulations, and attempt to analyze the relationship with social conditions from literature and statistical data.
