         Appeal No. 2006-2070                                                       
         Application No. 09/986,586                                                 
         independent claims.                                                        
              For the above reasons we conclude that the examiner has not           
         carried the burden of establishing a prima facie case of                   
         obviousness of the appellants’ claimed invention.                          
                                        DECISION                                    
              The rejections under 35 U.S.C. § 103 of claims 1-3, 13-15             
         and 19-21 over Ohnuma in view of Final Fantasy VIII, and                   
         claims 4, 5, 16, 17, 22 and 23 over Ohnuma in view of Final                
         Fantasy VIII and Kondo, are reversed.                                      
                                      REVERSED
