  The processing as described above is performed in the same manner as the processing in the first game hall system GS also in the remaining game hall systems GS other than the first game hall system GS. In this way, in each of the plurality of game hall systems GS, the processing of the timer interrupt management program by the CPU 300 of the hall server HS is repeated every time when the timing by the interrupt timing soft timer ends.

  Then, for each remaining game hall system GS, the first management data and the second management data for each of the game machine facilities extending over the island facilities G1 to G12 are stored as hole server data by the corresponding hall server HS. It is transmitted to the Internet IN via 300a.

  In the service server SS, the image processing apparatus 400 repeatedly executes the image processing program by the CPU 410 according to the flowchart of FIG. 12 as described above. Thus, when the execution of the image processing program is started in the start step of FIG. 12, the image processing program proceeds to the next hall server data reception processing routine 700 (see FIGS. 12 and 13).

  Therefore, in the hall server data reception processing routine 700, it is determined in step 710 of FIG. 13 whether hall server data is received. In this determination, if the hall server HS of at least one gaming hall system GS among the plurality of gaming hall systems GS transmits the hall server data to the Internet IN as described above, the CPU 410 is connected to the Internet IN The hall server data of the hall server HS of the one or more game hall systems GS is received via the communication device 400a. Accordingly, YES is determined in step 710. If no hall server data is transmitted from any hall server HS, NO is determined in step 710.

  When the determination in step 710 is YES as described above, in the next step 711, the variable n is set to n = 1. Here, the first game hall system GS corresponds to n = 1, the second, third,..., The ninth and tenth game hall systems GS n = 2, n = 3,. -, Corresponding to n = 9 and n = 10.

  In other words, the hall servers HS of the first, second, third,..., Ninth and tenth game hall systems GS are n = 1, n = 2, n = 3,. -, Corresponding to n = 9 and n = 10. In addition, hereinafter, in this embodiment, the hall server data from the hall servers HS of the first, second, third,..., Ninth and tenth game hall systems GS are the first, second, It is also referred to as third,..., Ninth and tenth hall server data. For example, the first hall server data is included in the first and second management data of each game machine facility extending from the hall server HS of the first game hall system GS to the island facilities G1 to G12 of the first game hall system GS. Correspond.

  After the set process of n = 1 in step 711, the process of the storage update process routine 720 of the nth hall server data is performed (see FIGS. 13 and 14). Since the variable n = 1 at this stage, the processing is the processing of the storage update processing routine 720 for the first hall server data (the hall server data from the hall server of the first game hall system GS). .

  First, in step 721 in FIG. 14, it is determined whether there is first management data of the nth hall server. Here, since the variable n = 1, whether or not there is the first management data of the first hall server is determined based on the hall server number of the first management data.

  At this stage, if the first management data of the first hall server data is in the hall server data from the first hall server HS, YES is determined in step 721. Accordingly, the first management data of the first hall server data is stored and updated in a predetermined storage area of the RAM 440 of the image processing apparatus 400 in the first management data storage update process in step 722. Here, since the 1st hall server data respond | corresponds to the 1st and 2nd management data of each game stand equipment over the island facilities G1-G12 of 1st game hall system GS, there are multiple 1st management data. If there is, the plurality of first management data is stored and updated in different predetermined storage areas of the RAM 440, respectively.

  Next, since there is no first management data of the first hall server data, it is determined NO in step 721, or after the storage update process of step 722 is performed, in step 723, the nth hall server data It is determined whether there is any second management data. Here, since the variable n = 1, it is determined based on the hole server number of the second management data whether there is the second management data of the first hole server. If there is no second management data of the first hall server data in the hall server data from the first hall server HS at the present stage, the determination in step 723 is NO.

  In step 723, if the second management data of the first hall server data is in the hall server data from the first hall server HS, it is determined as YES. Accordingly, the second management data of the first hall server data is stored and updated in a predetermined storage area of the RAM 440 of the image processing apparatus 400 in the second management data storage update process in step 724. Here, since the 1st hall server data respond | corresponds to the 1st and 2nd management data of each game stand equipment over the island facilities G1-G12 of the 1st game hall system GS, there are two or more 2nd management data. If there is, the plurality of second management data is stored and updated in different predetermined storage areas of the RAM 440, respectively.

  When the processing of the storage update processing routine 720 for the first hall server data is completed as described above, in the next step 730 (see FIG. 13), the variable n is set in step 711 based on the following equation (1). Based on n = 1, addition updating is performed with n = 2.

n = n + 1 (1)
Thereafter, in step 740, it is determined whether n> 10. At this stage, since n = 2 is updated at step 730, the determination at step 740 is NO. Note that the number “10” in n> 10 corresponds to the tenth hall server HS.

  As described above, when the determination in step 740 is NO, in the nth hole server data storage update processing routine 720, the second hole server data storage update processing is performed based on the variable n = 2 in step 730. That is, in the storage update processing routine 720 of the nth hole server data, the storage update processing of the first and second management data of the second hall server data is performed in the same manner as described above.

  Hereinafter, until the determination of YES in step 740 is made, the process of circulating through steps 740, 720, and 730 is repeated each time the variable n is added and updated in step 730.

  That is, every time the variable is sequentially added and updated as n = 3, 4,..., 10 at step 730, the third is calculated based on n = 3, 4,. The storage update processing of the first and second management data of the fourth,..., Tenth hall server data is performed in the same manner as described above.

  Thereafter, when the variable n in step 730 becomes n = n + 1 = 11, the determination in step 740 is YES. This means that the storage update processing of the first and second management data of the tenth hall server data has been completed. After the determination of YES in step 740, the variable is cleared to n = 0 in step 742.

  When the processing of the storage update processing routine for the first and second management data of the first to tenth hole server data is completed as described above, the arithmetic processing routine 800 based on the next hole server data (FIGS. 12 and 15) is performed.

  Therefore, when the processing of the arithmetic processing routine 800 is started in the start step of FIG. 15, in the next step 810, the variable k is set to k = 1. Here, the first, second, third,..., Ninth and tenth hall server data are k = 1, k = 2, k = 3,..., K = 9 and k. = 10.

  After the processing of step 810, the management data processing routine 820 (see FIGS. 15 and 16) based on the next kth hall server data is performed. This process is the process of the management data processing routine 820 based on the first hall server data because the variable k = 1 at this stage.

  Accordingly, when the processing of the management data processing routine 820 is started in the start step of FIG. 16, in the next step 821, the variable p is set to p = 10. Here, for each game hall system GS, the game machine equipment 10 corresponds to p = 10, the game machine equipment 11 corresponds to p = 11, and each of the game machine equipments 12, 13,... , 204, 205 correspond to p = 12, 13,..., 204, 205, respectively.

  After the process in step 821, in step 822, it is determined whether or not there is first management data of the game machine equipment corresponding to the variable p. Here, since the variable p = 10, it is determined in step 822 whether or not there is first management data of the gaming machine facility 10.

  At this stage, if the first management data of the gaming machine facility 10 is stored in the RAM 440 of the service server SS, the determination in step 822 is YES. Accordingly, the first management data of the gaming machine equipment corresponding to the variable p in the next step 822a is read out. At this stage, since p = 10, the first management data of the gaming machine facility 10 corresponding to p = 10 is read from the RAM 440.

  Thereafter, in step 822b, it is determined whether there is ball data. If the possessed ball data is in the first management data of the gaming machine facility 10 read in step 822a, the determination in step 822b is YES. Then, in step 822c, a calculation process is performed by the following equation (2) based on the number of balls in the ball data of the game table equipment 10 corresponding to p = 10.

r = Q-750m (2)
Here, the reason why the equation (2) is introduced in this embodiment will be described. The number of game balls that can be normally stored in a game ball storage box (dollar box) that has been conventionally used in pachinko halls is, for example, 1500 (pieces). Therefore, the number of game balls for half a dollar box is 750 (pieces).

  Therefore, when the number of dollar boxes is set based on the number of half boxes of dollar boxes, the number of half boxes = 1 corresponds to the number of dollar boxes = 0.5 and the number of game balls = 750 (pieces). Further, the number of half boxes = 2, 3, and 4 are respectively the number of dollar boxes = 1 and the number of gaming balls 1500 (pieces), the number of dollar boxes = 1.5 and the number of gaming balls 2250 (pieces), and the number of dollar boxes = 2 and 3000 gaming balls (see FIG. 17).

  Therefore, in general, if the number of half boxes is m, and the number of game balls accommodated in a half box, that is, the half of the number of player's balls, the number of half boxes = m is the number of dollar boxes. = 0.5 m and the number of possessed balls Q = 750 m (pieces). Note that m represents an integer (0, 1, 2,...) That does not include a negative number, and Q is the total number of balls held by the player. A half box number m = 0 means that the dollar box is zero.

In addition, if the number of held balls Q is not an integral multiple of the number of game balls for half a box, the number of held balls that do not reach the number of game balls for half a box of Q Number of balls). When this is generally expressed by equation (2), the number of balls held less than half a box is
r = Q-750m (3)
Given by. However, in equation (3), m ≧ 1. In Equation (3), r represents the number of balls held less than the half box described above.

Accordingly, in the calculation process in step 822c, the number of game balls r less than half a box is calculated according to the number Q of balls of the player based on equation (3).
Thereafter, in the next step 822d, the half box number m is calculated according to the player's number of balls Q and the number of balls less than half box r based on the following equation (4). .

m = (Q−r) / 750 (4)
Next, in the next step 823, it is determined whether or not the number Q of the player's balls at the current stage satisfies the following inequality (5).

750m-100 ≦ Q <750 (m + 1) -100 (5)
However, in inequality (5), when m = 0, Q <750−100 = 650 is established on the assumption that Q ≧ 0.

  Here, the grounds for introducing inequality (5) will be described. The chart of FIG. 17 shows the number of held balls Q for the number of half boxes m, the number of balls Q, the number of dollar boxes 0.5 m, and the number of half boxes m = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5,. The correspondence with each range is shown. Therefore, when the number of holding balls Q is 750 (pieces), 1500 (pieces), 2250 (pieces), 3000 (pieces), 3750 (pieces), ..., 750 m (pieces), the number of dollar boxes is Half box, 1 box, 1.5 box, 2 box, 2.5 box,..., 0.5 m box.

  Therefore, during the player's game, for example, after reaching Q = 1500 (pieces), if the decrease to Q = 1499 (pieces) and the increase to Q = 1500 (pieces) are repeated, the number of dollar boxes is reduced. After becoming one box, it repeats decreasing to half box and increasing to one box. For this reason, as described later, after the dollar box image to be displayed on the mobile phone MP becomes a single box image, it frequently fluctuates between the half box image and the single box image.

  This means that the Q box is only increased by 1 (piece), such as between 1500 (pieces) and 1499 (pieces), and the dollar box image to be displayed by the mobile phone MP becomes half box image and one box. It means that it fluctuates frequently between images. This causes a problem that the display content of the mobile phone MP is not unstable and difficult for the player to see.

  Therefore, in order to prevent the occurrence of such a problem, in the present embodiment, after Q has increased to 750, 1500, 2250, 3000, 3750,. Even so, by maintaining the number of dollar boxes at 750, 1500, 2250, 3000, 3750,..., Or 750 m, it is possible to prevent the occurrence of frequent fluctuations in the display content of the mobile phone MP. . Here, the predetermined number range refers to a number such as 100 (pieces) that the player does not feel difficult to see.

  And according to such a premise, each range of the number of possessed balls Q corresponding to the number of half boxes m = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5,... Is as follows (see FIG. 17). .

m = 1: 650 (pieces) ≦ Q <1400 (pieces)
m = 2: 1400 (pieces) ≦ Q <2150 (pieces)
m = 3: 2150 (pieces) ≦ Q <2900 (pieces)
m = 4: 2900 (pieces) ≦ Q <3650 (pieces)
m = 5: 3650 (pieces) ≦ Q <4400 (pieces)
・
・
・
Therefore, in general, the above inequality (5) holds for the number of half boxes m = m. For half box number m = 0, dollar box number = 0 and Q <650.

  Here, the inequality (5) described above will be described. In the inequality (5), 750m-100 ≦ Q is less than Q = 100 with respect to Q = 750m, and the number of half boxes m is Q = 750m. It remains the number of half boxes corresponding to. When Q decreases to Q <750 m-100, the number of half boxes m decreases by one.

  On the other hand, in the above inequality (5), Q <750 (m + 1) -100 is based on Q = 750 m, and Q is in a range where Q does not reach Q = 750 (m + 1) -100. The number of half boxes corresponding to Q = 750 m remains.

  Thus, if the number Q of balls in the first management data of the gaming machine facility 10 in step 822a satisfies the inequality (5), YES in the above-described step 823 based on the number of half boxes m in step 822c. Determined. Specifically, for example, when m = 0, when Q <650 is satisfied, the determination in step 823 becomes YES. For example, when m = 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5, 650 (pieces) ≦ Q <1400 (pieces), 1400 (pieces) ≦ Q <2150 (pieces), 2150 (pieces) ≦ Q <2900. (Piece), 2900 (Piece) ≦ Q <3650 (Piece), or 3650 (Piece) ≦ Q <4400 (Piece), the determination in Step 823 becomes YES.

  After determination of YES in step 823, it is determined in step 824 whether a predetermined waiting time has elapsed. In the present embodiment, the predetermined waiting time refers to a time during which it can be determined that the dollar box image to be displayed by the mobile phone MP is stable and not easily viewed by the player without frequent fluctuations. Note that the waiting time is determined by counting a waiting time counting soft timer (not shown) provided in the service server SS. The waiting time counting soft timer is reset in response to the determination of YES in step 823 and starts counting time.

  If the waiting time has not elapsed at the present stage, NO is determined in step 824 based on the time measured by the waiting time counting soft timer. Thereafter, the determination in step 823 described above is made again. Here, even if the number Q of balls of the player at the current stage fluctuates, if the number Q of balls held satisfies the inequality (5), it is again determined as YES in Step 823. Thereafter, the determination process that circulates Step 824 and Step 823 is repeated as long as the inequality (5) is satisfied within the waiting time.

  Thus, if the number of possessed balls Q does not satisfy the inequality (5) with the player by the game machine equipment 10 before the waiting time elapses, the processing after step 822a is performed based on the determination of NO in step 823. Made. This is because the number of possessed balls Q is inequality (5) when the player using the game table facility 10 acquires a lot of game balls by hitting or consumes a lot of game balls during the game. ) Is no longer satisfied.

  Therefore, in the process of step 822a as described above, the first management data of the gaming machine facility 10 at the present stage (the first management data of the gaming machine equipment 10 in the first hall server data) is read from the service server SS. Based on the determination of YES in step 822b, in step 822c, the number of held balls r that does not reach the number of game balls for half a box is calculated based on equation (3), and in step 822d, The number m of half boxes at the current stage is calculated based on equation (4).

  On the other hand, if the waiting time elapses while the number of possessed balls Q satisfies the inequality (5), the determination in steps 823 and 824 becomes YES. This means that even if the number of possessed balls Q varies depending on the player's game, this variation range is a stable range that satisfies the inequality (5).

  Therefore, in the dollar box number determination process based on m in the next step 824a, the number of dollar boxes is determined based on the half box number m and the number of possessed balls Q when YES is determined in step 824 as described above. For example, if m = 2, the number of dollar boxes is 1 (piece), and if m = 4, the number of dollar boxes is 2 (pieces).

  When the processing in step 824a ends as described above, in the next step 824b, the determined dollar box number is stored in the RAM 440 of the service server SS as dollar box conversion data. Here, the dollar box conversion data is formed and stored as data with the unit number of the corresponding first management data.

  Thus, if it is determined NO when there is no possessed ball data in step 822b described above, or if the process of step 824b is performed, in the next step 825, the variable p is set based on the following equation (6). Added and updated. At the present stage, since the variable p = 10, only “1” is added and the addition is updated to p = 11.

p = p + 1 (6)
Next, at step 826, it is determined whether p <205. At this stage, since p = 11 <205, YES is determined in step 826.
Thereafter, in step 822, it is determined whether or not there is first management data of the game machine equipment corresponding to the variable p. Here, since the variable p = 11, it is determined whether or not there is first management data of the gaming machine facility 11 (first management data of the gaming machine equipment 11 in the first hall server data). . At this stage, if the first management data of the gaming machine equipment 11 is stored in the RAM 440 of the service server SS, the processing of step 822a to step 824b is performed in the same manner as described above based on the determination of YES in step 822. The

  Thereafter, in step 825, since the variable p = 11 at this stage, p = p + 1 = 12 is added and updated based on the above equation (6). As described above, after it is determined YES in step 826, the variable p is incremented and updated based on equation (6) in step 825 while the determination of YES is repeated in step 826. Similarly, the processing from step 822 to step 826 is repeated in the same manner as described above.

In such an iterative process, when the variable p is added and updated to p = 206 in step 825, NO is determined in step 826, and then the variable p is cleared to p = 0 in step 827. . Thereby, the processing of the management data processing routine 820 based on the first hole information data on the assumption that the variable k = 1 is completed.
Then, in step 830 of FIG. 15, the variable k is added and updated to k = 2 based on the following equation (7) based on the variable k = 1 in step 810.

k = k + 1 (7)
Accordingly, in the next step 840, it is determined whether k> 10. At this stage, NO is determined in step 840 based on k = 2 in step 830.

  Thereafter, the processing in the management data processing routine 820 based on the kth hall server data is performed. At this stage, since this process is k = 2, it becomes the process of the management data processing routine 820 based on the second hall server data, and the steps 821 to 82 are based on the first management data of the second hall server data. The process over 827 is performed in the same manner as described above.

  Thereafter, the process of the management data processing routine 820 based on the kth hall server data is the same every time the variable k is added and updated in step 830 until YES is determined in step 840 (see FIG. 15). Repeated.

  That is, in step 840, whenever the variable k is sequentially updated as k = 3, 4,..., 10, the management data processing routine 820 based on the third hall server data, the fourth hall server. Management data processing routine 820 based on data,... Management data processing routine 820 based on the tenth hall server data is similarly performed.

  After that, when the variable k in step 830 is added and updated as k = 11, YES is determined in step 840, and in the next step 841, the variable k is cleared as k = 0. This completes the processing of the arithmetic processing routine 800 based on the hall server data.

  Accordingly, the processing of the video data processing routine 900 (see FIGS. 12 and 18 to 21) is performed. When the processing of the video data processing routine 900 is started in the start step of FIG. 18, in the next step 910, it is determined whether or not smartphone data is received. This means that it is determined whether or not there is a request for hall information data, island facility information data, board information data, or presentation information data by the smartphone data of the mobile phone MP to the service server SS.

  At this stage, if the mobile phone MP does not transmit hall marker video data, island equipment marker video data, board marker video data or display marker video data as smartphone data, as described later, it is determined as NO in step 910. Is done. This means that there is no request for the service server SS from the mobile phone MP.

  Thereafter, when the smartphone data is transmitted from the mobile phone MP to the Internet IN, the service server SS receives the smartphone data from the mobile phone MP via the Internet IN at the communication device 400a. This means that there is a request for the service server SS by the mobile phone MP. Accordingly, the smartphone data is input to the CPU 410 of the service server SS via the I / F 420 and the bus line BS2. Then, the determination in step 910 is YES.

  Next, in step 920, it is determined whether or not the data is hole marker video data. If the smartphone data received in step 910 is hole marker video data, the determination in step 920 is YES. This means that the request by the mobile phone MP is intended for transmission of hall information data for hall marker video data.

  Then, in accordance with the determination of YES in step 920 described above, hole information data formation processing is performed in the next step 921. In this hole information data formation process, if the hole marker Mh that is the basis for determining YES in step 920 is one of the first to tenth hole markers Mh, any one of the hole markers Mh is the first To the hall information of any of the tenth pachinko halls H. Accordingly, business hours data and event data of any of the first to tenth pachinko halls H are read from the ROM 430 of the image processing apparatus 400.

  In the present embodiment, the business hours data of the first pachinko hall H to the tenth pachinko hall H are stored in the ROM 430 in a readable manner in advance. Here, for example, the business time data of the first pachinko hall H is data representing a business time image in which a two-stage configuration of “business hours” and “9:00 to 23:00” is surrounded by a square outline. .

  Each event data of the first pachinko hall H to the tenth pachinko hall H is also stored in the ROM 430 in a readable manner. Here, for example, the event data of the first pachinko hall H is data representing “replacement of a new table”.

  As described above, when any business hours data or event data of the first to tenth pachinko halls H is read out, any one of the first to tenth pachinko halls H is the business hours data or event data. It is formed as such hole information data.

  Thereafter, in the hall information data transmission process at step 922, the hall information data of any of the first to tenth pachinko halls H formed at step 921 is transmitted via the network IN by the service server SS. This means that the service server SS transmits the hall information data to the cellular phone MP via the network IN in response to a request for the hall information data (business hours data or event data) by the cellular phone MP. .

  In step 920 described above, if the received smartphone data in step 910 is not hole marker video data, NO is determined. Then, in the next step 930, it is determined whether or not it is island facility marker video data.

  If the smartphone data received in step 910 is island facility marker video data, the determination in step 930 is YES. This means that the mobile phone MP requests the service server SS to transmit island facility information data for the island facility marker video data.

  Accordingly, in the next step 931, island facility information data formation processing is performed. In this island facility information data forming process, the island facility marker Ms which is the basis for determining YES in step 930 is any of the island facilities G1 to G12 in the pachinko hall H of the first to tenth pachinko halls H. If the island facility marker Ms corresponds to the island facility, the island facility marker Ms is associated with the island facility information of any of the island facilities.

  Accordingly, the hall server data of any one of the pachinko halls H stored in the RAM 440 of the image processing apparatus 400 of the service server SS is read from the RAM 440 based on the hall server number.

  Here, if the island equipment video data that is the basis for the determination of YES in step 930 is, as the smartphone data, requesting island possession ball data, game machine type data, game machine selection data, or business hours data, Island possession ball data, game machine type data, game machine selection data or business hours data are formed as island facility information data.

  That is, if the island possession ball data is the target of the request, each of the game machine facilities (for example, any of the island facilities in the hall server data of any one of the pachinko halls H read as described above (for example, Based on the possession ball data of each game machine facility 10-15), by calculating the total number of balls possessed by each game machine facility (for example, each game machine facility 10-15), the total number of island possessions is Formed as sphere data.

  Further, if the game table type data is the target of the request, each game machine facility of any of the above-mentioned island facilities (for example, each game machine of the island facility G1) of the hall server data of any of the above pachinko halls H The data representing the type of any of the gaming tables of the facilities 10 to 15) (hereinafter referred to as gaming table type data) is based on the number of each gaming table facility (for example, each of the gaming table facilities 10 to 15). It is selected and read out from a plurality of game table type data stored in advance in the ROM 430 of the processing device 400. The read gaming machine type data is, for example, data representing the type of gaming machine of the game machine manufacturer.

  Further, if the game table selection method data is the target of the request, the data indicating how to select a game table in any one of the island facilities (for example, the island facility G1) of the hall server data of any one of the pachinko halls H. (Hereinafter referred to as game machine selection data) is selected and read out from a plurality of game machine selection data stored in advance in the ROM 430 of the image processing apparatus 400. The read game table selection method data is, for example, data representing how to play the game machine of the game machine manufacturer. Here, if there is a game machine having a different way of playing among the game machines of any of the above-mentioned island facilities, it is selected and read out from a plurality of game machine selection data stored in advance in the ROM 430 for each different game machine. .

  If the business hours data is the target of the request, the business hours data of any one of the pachinko halls H is read from the ROM 430.

  Thus, when the island possession ball data, the game machine type data, the game machine selection method data, or the business hours data is read as described above, the read data is used as the island equipment information data in step 932. In the data transmission process, the data is transmitted by the service server SS via the network IN. This means that in response to a request based on the island facility marker video data Ms by the mobile phone MP, the island facility information data (island possession ball data, game machine type data, game machine selection data or business hours data) is provided by the service server SS. It means that it is transmitted via the network IN.

  In step 930 described above, if the received smartphone data in step 910 is not island facility marker video data, NO is determined. Then, in the next step 940, it is determined whether or not it is board marker video data.

  Here, if the smartphone data received in step 910 is board marker video data, the determination in step 940 is YES. This means that the request by the mobile phone MP to the service server SS is transmission of board information data for board marker video data.

  Accordingly, the next board information data formation processing routine 940a is performed (see FIGS. 19 and 20). In this board information data formation processing routine, the board marker video data that is the basis for determining YES in step 940 is, for example, a board corresponding to the board marker Mb of the gaming board A1 of the gaming machine facility 10 in the first pachinko hall H. If it is marker video data, the board marker video data is associated with the board information of the gaming board A1 of the gaming machine facility 10 in the first pachinko hall H.

  Thus, in the hall server data read process in step 941, the hall server data of the first pachinko hall H stored in the RAM 440 of the image processing apparatus 400 of the service server SS is stored in the gaming machine facility 10 in the first pachinko hall H. It is read from the RAM 440 in relation to the board marker video data corresponding to the board marker Mb of the game board A1.

  Then, in the next step 942, it is determined whether there is dollar box conversion data. Here, if the hall server data of the first pachinko hall H read in step 941 includes dollar box conversion data corresponding to the game board A1 of the gaming machine facility 10, the determination in step 942 is YES. It becomes.

  Accordingly, in step 942a, a process for forming dollar box image data corresponding to the dollar box conversion data is performed. In the present embodiment, half-box images, half-box images, half-box images, half-box images, 1.5-box images, 1.5-box images representing dollar-box half boxes, one box, 1.5 boxes, two boxes,. Are stored in the ROM 430 of the image composition processing apparatus 500 as data in advance so as to be readable.

  At this stage, if the dollar box conversion data is data representing the number of two dollar boxes, for example, data representing a two box image is read from the ROM 430 of the image composition processing apparatus 500 in step 942a. The two-box image read in this way is formed as dollar box image data representing a dollar box image in which the characters “2 boxes” are surrounded by a substantially square outline.

  Then, in the setting process of the dollar box image data as the board information data in the next step 942b, the above-described dollar box image data is set as the board information data.

  In addition, in the board information data formation processing routine 940a, the board marker video data that is the basis for determining YES in step 940 is the game board A1 of the remaining game machines in the game machine facility 10 in the first pachinko hall H, or It is assumed that the board marker video data corresponds to the board marker Mb of the game board A1 of the game machine in any one of the game machine facilities in the second to tenth pachinko halls H. Here, the gaming board A1 of the gaming machine other than the gaming machine facility 10 in the first pachinko hall H or the gaming machine of any gaming machine facility in any of the pachinko halls in the second to tenth pachinko halls H. The game board A1 is referred to as any remaining game board A1.

  Since the board marker video data is associated with the board information of any of the remaining game boards A1, any one of the first to tenth pachinko halls H stored in the RAM 440 of the service server SS. Server data is read from the RAM 440 in association with the board marker video data.

  Then, in the next step 942, it is determined whether there is dollar box conversion data. Here, if the hall server data of any of the first to tenth pachinko halls H read in step 941 includes dollar box conversion data corresponding to any of the remaining game boards A1. The determination in step 942 is YES.

  Accordingly, in step 942a, a process for forming dollar box image data corresponding to the dollar box conversion data is performed. In this forming process, data representing a dollar box image is read from the ROM 430 of the service server SS, and characters representing the number of boxes are formed as dollar box image data representing a dollar box image surrounded by a substantially rectangular outline. In the next step 942b, the dollar box image data is set as the board information data in the set processing as the board information data.

  Here, for example, if the dollar box conversion data corresponding to the gaming machine of each gaming machine facility 11, 20 or 25 in the first pachinko hall H is data indicating the number of dollar boxes of one box, three boxes or two boxes. For example, data representing one box image, three box images, or two box images is read from the ROM 430 of the service server SS. The data representing the one-box image, the three-box image, or the two-box image is a dollar representing the dollar-box image in which the characters “1 box”, “3 boxes”, or “2 boxes” are surrounded by a substantially square outline. It is formed as box image data, and is set as board information data in the next step 942b.

  If it is determined NO in step 942 described above because there is no dollar box conversion data, it is determined in next step 943 whether or not there is table specification data. Here, if the hall server data read in step 941 includes the machine specification data of the first management data, it is determined as YES in step 943.

  Next, in step 943a, a table-specific image data forming process is performed. In this formation process, specifications such as the jackpot probability, probability variation continuation rate, and time reduction of the game table are formed as table specification image data. Thereafter, in the setting process of the table specification data as the board information data in step 943b, the table specification image data formed as described above is set as the board information data.

  If the determination in step 943 is NO, in the next step 944, the determination in step 944 is YES if the hole server data read in step 941 includes play style data corresponding to the jackpot.

  Accordingly, in the next step 944a, how to play image data is formed. In this forming process, the data representing the image of the electric tulip in the open state is read from the ROM 430 of the service server SS, and the sentence “Opens a ball when the attacker hits a big ball.” With a substantially rectangular outline. It is formed as enclosed image data for how to play. Next, the play image data thus formed is set as board information data in step 944b.

  If the determination in step 944 is NO, in the next step 945, it is determined whether there is any pending call data. Here, if the hall server data in step 941 includes the call data of the second management data, it is determined as YES in step 945.

  Along with this, in the next process of forming the call-up image data in step 945a, the call-up image data in which the characters “call-up” are surrounded by a substantially square outline is formed. Along with this, in the call-up image data in step 945b, the above-mentioned call-up image data is set as board information data.

  When the process of the board information forming process routine 940a is completed as described above, the board information data set in step 942b, 943b, 944b or 945b is obtained in the board information data transmission process in the next step 946 (see FIG. 19). And transmitted by the service server SS via the network IN. This means that in response to a request based on the board marker video data by the mobile phone MP, board information data (dollar box image data, table specification data, how to play image data, or relationship call image data) is transmitted by the service server SS via the network IN. Means to be sent.

  On the other hand, if it is not the board marker video data in step 940 (see FIG. 19), it is determined NO. This means that the smartphone data received in step 910 is display marker video data. Therefore, the next effect information formation processing routine 950 (see FIGS. 19 and 21) is performed.

  In this effect information formation processing routine, the indicator marker video data that becomes the basis for determining NO in step 940 is, for example, the indicator marker corresponding to the effect indicator A4 of the gaming machine facility 10 in the first pachinko hall H. It shall correspond to Md.

Thus, in the hall server data reading process in step 951,
The hall server data of the first pachinko hall H stored in the RAM 440 of the service server SS is read from the RAM 440 in relation to the display marker video data corresponding to the effect display A4 of the game machine facility 10. The display marker video data is associated with the effect information of the effect display A4 of the game machine facility 10 in the first pachinko hall H.

  Then, in step 952, it is determined whether or not there is reach notice data. Here, if the hall server data of the first pachinko hall H read in step 951 includes the reach notice data corresponding to the effect display A4 of the gaming machine facility 10 in the first management data, The determination in step 952 is YES.

  Accordingly, reach notice symbol variation image data is formed in the next step 952a. In this forming process, for example, reach notice symbol variation image data that varies from three rows of variation symbols to a variation symbol representing the timing at which the chance button is hit is formed. Thereafter, in the process of setting the reach notice symbol variation image data as the effect information data in step 952b, the reach notice symbol variation image data formed in step 952a is set as the effect information data.

  If the determination in step 952 is NO, it is determined in next step 953 whether there is reach expectation data. Here, if the hall server data of the first pachinko hall H read in step 951 includes reach expectation data corresponding to the effect display A4 of the gaming machine facility 10 in the first management data. The determination in step 953 is YES.

  Along with this, in the next step 953a, a process of forming reach expectation symbol variation image data is performed. In this forming process, for example, reach expectation symbol variation image data that varies from three rows of variation symbols to a variation symbol representing the reach notice expectation degree is formed. Thereafter, in the set process of the reach notice symbol variation image data as the effect information data in the step 953b, the reach expectation symbol variation image data formed as described above is set as the effect information data.

  If the determination in step 953 is NO, it is determined in the next step 954 whether there is mini game data. Here, when the hall server data of the first pachinko hall H read in step 951 includes the mini game data corresponding to the effect display A4 of the gaming machine facility 10 in the first management data, The determination in step 954 is YES.

  Accordingly, in the next step 954a, mini-game symbol variation image data is formed. In this formation process, for example, mini-game symbol variation image data that varies from three rows of variation symbols to three columns of selection button symbols is formed.

  Thereafter, in the setting process of the mini game symbol variation image data as the effect information data in step 954b, the mini game symbol variation image data formed as described above is set as the effect information data.

  When the processing of the production information data formation processing routine 950 is completed as described above, the production information data set in step 952b, 953b or 944b in the production information data transmission processing in step 955 of FIG. , Transmitted via the network IN.

Sent to the Internet IN.

  Next, in step 1430 (see FIG. 25), it is determined whether or not effect information data has been received. At this stage, since the production information data from the service server SS has not been received yet, the determination in step 1430 is NO. Then, in step 1440, it is determined whether or not a predetermined reception time has elapsed. At this stage, since the predetermined reception time has not yet elapsed, the determination in step 1440 is NO. In the present embodiment, the predetermined reception time in step 14240 is counted under the reset activation by the above-described reception time timing soft timer.

  As described above, when the display marker image data is transmitted in step 1420 as the smartphone data for requesting the reach expectation symbol variation image data of the effect display A4 of the game machine of the game machine facility 10 of the island equipment G1, the smartphone data is transmitted. The data is received by the service server SS by the CPU 410 via the Internet IN, and YES is determined in step 910 (see FIG. 18) of the video data processing routine 900.

  Next, since the smartphone data received in step 910 is the indicator marker video data for requesting the reach expectation symbol variation image data of the effect display A4 of the game machine of the game machine equipment 10 of the island equipment G1, each step 920, NO is sequentially determined at 930 and 940 (see FIGS. 18 and 19).

  Then, the next effect information forming process routine 950 (see FIGS. 19 and 21) is performed. In this process, a hall server data read process is performed in step 951 of FIG. At this stage, the hall server data of the hall server HS of the first pachinko hall H is read out in relation to the indicator marker video data that is the basis for the determination of NO in step 940.

  Next, the display marker image data that is the basis for the determination of NO in step 940 requests the reach expectation degree symbol variation image data of the display indicator A4 of the game machine of the game machine equipment 10 of the island equipment G1 as described above. Therefore, after determining NO in step 952, it is determined in step 953 whether or not there is reach expectation data. Here, if the hall server data in step 951 has reach expectation data corresponding to the effect display A4 of the game machine of the game machine facility 10 of the island equipment G1, the determination in step 953 is YES.

  Thereafter, in step 953a, reach expectation image data is formed. In this forming process, reach expectation degree data that is the basis for the determination of YES in step 953 is selected from the first management data in the hall server data in step 951. Here, it is assumed that the reach expectation level data is, for example, data representing the three rows of variation symbols described in FIG.

  Thus, for example, as shown in FIG. 32A, reach expectation degree image data in which an image indicating that the expectation degree is 70% is surrounded by a double rectangular outline is formed.

  Thereafter, the reach expectation degree image data formed in this way is set as effect information data in the set process as the effect information data of the reach expectation degree image data in step 953b.

  Then, in the effect information data transmission process in the next step 955, effect information data that is the reach expectation image data set in step 953b is transmitted from the service server SS to the mobile phone MP via the Internet IN.

  When the mobile phone MP receives reach expectation image data as effect information data from the service server SS via the Internet IN while repeating the determination of NO in steps 1430 and 1440 as described above, in step 1430 , YES is determined.

  Accordingly, in the next effect information superimposing process in step 1431, the reach expectation image data corresponding to the effect display A4 of the game machine of the game machine facility 10 of the island equipment G1 is superimposed on the above-described display marker video. The That is, the reach expectation degree image of the reach expectation degree image data is displayed superimposed on the above-described display marker image by the operation display unit 510 of the mobile phone MP as shown in FIG.

  Thereby, the player with respect to the game board A1 of the gaming machine facility 10 in the island equipment G1 can use it for the subsequent game by knowing that the reach expectation degree in the game board A1 is 70%.

  Accordingly, the player with respect to the game board A1 of the game board equipment 10 in the island equipment G1 knows that the game state in the game board A1 is in the reach notice state and is at the timing to press the chance button, so that the arrival of reach is reached. You can press the chance button immediately in a timely manner.

  If the display marker Md is to be photographed to request mini game data instead of the reach expectation level as described above, the hall server data reading process in step 951 is performed, and then the step Instead of the processing of 953 to step 953b, the processing of step 954 to step 954b is performed.

  Accordingly, in step 954, if the hall server data in step 951 has the mini game data corresponding to the game table effect display A4 of the game machine facility 10 of the island equipment G1, it is determined YES.

  Thereafter, in step 954a, mini-game image data is formed. In this formation process, the mini game data that is the basis for the determination of YES in step 954 is selected from the first management data in the hole server data in step 951. Here, it is assumed that the mini game data is data representing the three rows of variation symbols shown in FIG. Note that the fluctuation pattern of this data is in a state where three identical symbols may be arranged in an oblique direction.

  Thus, for example, as shown in FIG. 33 (b), a sentence “Please select one” and a two-stage image of three cylindrical images A, B, and C together with a display marker Md and a square outline. A mini game image surrounded by a line is formed as mini game image data, and in this mini game image data, an image pointing to the cylindrical image C is formed with the thumb of the hand as shown in FIG. . In addition, each cylindrical image A, B, and C represents that the expectation degree of jackpot is 20 (%), 50 (%), and 70 (%).

  Thereafter, in the setting process of the mini game image data as the effect information data in step 953b, the mini game image data formed in step 954a is set as the effect information data, and in step 955 (see FIG. 19), the service is performed. The data is transmitted from the server SS to the mobile phone MP via the Internet IN.

  Therefore, when the mobile phone MP receives the mini game image data as effect information data from the service server SS via the Internet IN, it is determined as YES in Step 1430.

  Accordingly, in the effect information superimposing process in the next step 1431, the mini game image data corresponding to the effect display A4 of the game machine of the game machine facility 10 of the island equipment G1 is superimposed on the data of the above-described display marker video. Is done. That is, as shown in FIG. 33B, the mini game image of the mini game image data is displayed by being superposed on the above-described indicator marker video by the operation display unit 510 of the mobile phone MP.

  As a result, the player with respect to the game board A1 of the game board equipment 10 in the island equipment G1 pushes the jackpot expectation degree cross button to indicate the cylinder A when the game state in the game board A1 is in the mini game state. By knowing that it is in the timing, it is possible to quickly press the expectation cross button in a timely manner in anticipation that the expectation of the jackpot is large.
