Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention allows a game to be played by supplying the game medium to the game machine, and the game machine is constructed so that the game medium can be paid out from the game machine as a result of the game. A program and a storage medium for a machine.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A gaming machine including a ball game machine such as a pachinko machine and a spinning drum type game machine such as a pachi-slot performs a game by supplying a game medium, and the game medium is paid out as a result of the game. Is configured to get.

For example, a ball game machine (first-class special electric accessory) has a device for firing a game medium (for example, a pachinko ball) by operating a handle, and the pachinko ball fired by this launching device is a gauge. When you enter the starting prize hole,
The variation of the symbol displayed on the display device, which is commonly called digital, is started. If the variation of the symbols is stopped and the combination of the symbols displayed on the display device is a predetermined jackpot combination, a jackpot gaming state occurs based on that, and more prize balls can be won. It will be possible. The ball game machine is provided with a main board (main control device) as control means and a plurality of sub-boards (sub-control device) for controlling each device such as a display device by a signal (command) from the main control device. ing.

The jackpot probability that a jackpot gaming state occurs is based on the perfect probability method every time. The full-probability method every time means that, regardless of the situation, the probability of the model is always fixed to the model probability determined by the manufacturer under normal conditions (except during probability fluctuations and rights). For example,
If the model has a probability of 1/300, the value at the moment when the game medium (pachinko ball) passes through the start winning hole, the consecutive 1-300 numerical counters are always operated at the same time when the power is turned on. Each time a pachinko ball passes through the starting winning opening, a big hit lottery is performed on the program. With this configuration, the model probability is set to always be kept constant.

Further, some ball game machines are known to have a function of changing the probability of occurrence of a big hit game state in two steps (low probability and high probability) according to conditions, a so-called probability change function (probability change). ing. In this ball game machine, when a big hit game state occurs with a predetermined special symbol, the occurrence probability is increased until the next big hit game state occurs.

Then, the mode (low-probability mode) in which the jackpot gaming state is generated with a low probability is switched to the mode (high-probability mode) in which the jackpot gaming state is generated with a higher probability. Furthermore, when the jackpot gaming state occurs with a special symbol predetermined in the high probability mode,
The same mode will continue from the next time. When the high-probability mode continues in this way, the number of prize balls to be acquired increases as the number of continuous times increases.

The prize balls are generated by the prize balls, but in the ball game machine, it is executed as a prize ball payout function for counting and paying out a predetermined number of pachinko balls per prize ball.

The prize ball payout function requires a reliable payout of the pachinko balls, a counting function for counting the pachinko balls paid out to the tray, and a stopper for stopping the payout of the pachinko balls when a predetermined number of pachinko balls are paid out. It has functions and. And these counting function and stopper function are implemented based on the command (command) of the control means (main controller) of the pachinko gaming machine.

By the way, a ball game machine such as a pachinko game machine or a spinning drum type game machine such as a pachi-slot, pays out an unlimited amount of game media (pachinko balls and medals) that can be paid out as a result of the game (prize ball). It is not good, and in order to suppress excessive game play (gambling), the total amount of pay-out game media (total pay-out game media) relative to the total amount of used game media (total used game media) used for playing the game The jackpot probability and the probability variation system are set so that the ratio of () falls within a certain fixed framework (regulatory value).

In the past, in the case of a pachinko gaming machine, in order to suppress excessive gambling, for example, a gauge design of the gaming board surface provides a certain limit to the probability of winning the winning opening statistically and probabilistically. Alternatively, the jackpot probability (normally stored in the ROM) in the random number lottery that determines the jackpot probability and the lottery by the random counter is restricted. In addition, the maximum number of consecutive winnings can be obtained by setting an upper limit on the number of times that you can get the jackpot lottery right in succession, that is, the maximum number of consecutive scheduled executions of symbol fluctuations Even if a winning ball that exceeds the planned number of times falls into a prize ball, it is controlled so as not to be subject to the right.

On the other hand, in the case of a pachi-slot type revolving-body type gaming machine, the winning probability (normally stored in ROM) of the big bonus game, the regular bonus game, and other winning combinations is restricted.

Then, in the gaming machine, the setting for suppressing the gambling property surely functions, and the quality of whether the ratio of the total payout game medium to the total used game medium is within a certain regulation value or not. After being managed, it is shipped to a game hall (hall).

This quality control conventionally calculates the ratio of the total payout game medium to the total used game medium in the game continuously performed for a fixed time (for example, 10 hours), and this ratio has a certain regulation value (for example, , The lower limit value is 1/2 times the upper limit value is 2 times).

[0014]

However, in the quality control of the conventional gaming machine, it is possible to set 1 in a fixed time (for example, 10 hours).
Since it is an inspection only once, there is concern about the quality control of the gaming machine whether it is really within the regulation value in a short time other than the fixed time, for example, about 1 hour. Further, in the conventional quality control of the gaming machine, the regulation can be performed only by the target value of the statistical probability or the probability of random number lottery, and the regulation has not been executed in a strict sense.

If the ratio is not within the regulation value except for a certain time (for example, 10 hours), the player suffers a great disadvantage to the games played continuously. There is a problem in that the game machine is separated from the game machine manufacturer, and the game machine manufacturer is hit, or on the contrary, the game machine manufacturer is recognized as a game machine that gives a player a great profit and inspires joy. Generally, if the balance of occurrence of character prizes in which many profits can be obtained at one time and prizes in which other profits are not large is not well-balanced, the above-mentioned problems tend to occur.

Therefore, the inventor of the present invention pays attention to the number of payout game media to be acquired by the accessory, and has made an idea in order to ensure the regulation of the ratio.

That is, the present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned problems, and the game is played soundly without the player being extremely disadvantageous to the game continuously played for a predetermined time. It is a technical object to provide a game machine, a program for the game machine, and a storage medium capable of performing appropriate quality control so that the above can be achieved.

Therefore, with respect to the number of payout game media that can be paid out from the gaming machine as a result of the game, the upper limit is the ratio of the total number of payout game media by winning the prize to the total number of payout game media in the game continuously performed in a predetermined time. Is provided and is controlled within a predetermined ratio by the control means (corresponding to claim 1).

The prize winning is usually a prize in which a large amount of game media is paid out by one prize (which is detected by the prize sensor of the prize device). When compared with a typical ball game machine, a winning device provided with a movable member that can be electrically moved in the vicinity of the winning opening is called a winning object (for example, an electric tulip), and the winning opening of the winning object is won. The case of winning is defined as a prize winning (for example, starting mouth winning). In addition, the continuous winning of prizes (for example, an attacker prize or a big prize) by winning the prizes by which a large amount of game media can be obtained by continuously and continuously operating the prizes is performed. Treated as one of the prizes. In addition, although exceptionally small, even if there is not a large amount of payout game media, or even if there is not a relatively large amount,
A prize for which a special right is obtained may be included as a prize for prize. In the present invention, the prize for which most of the game media are paid out or any of the accessory prizes having the contents described in the general example may be adopted.

The starting winning opening 4 is provided below the symbol display device 30. Since the start winning a prize hole 4 causes a variation in the pattern when the pachinko ball enters here, the case where the pachinko ball enters the starting winning a prize port 4 is said to be a starting prize, and the starting winning a prize port is also called a starting port. It is to be noted that a pachinko ball that has entered the general winning openings 9 and 9 is said to have won, and the pachinko ball that has won is referred to as a "winning ball" unless otherwise specified. The presence or absence of a winning is detected by a winning detection sensor (winning hole switch) 5 which is a winning ball detector when a pachinko ball enters the starting winning opening 4. In addition, general prize hole 9,
In the case of 9, the winning prize switch is also detected.

Then, when a winning ball is detected by the winning opening switch, a winning ball is generated, and the payout mechanism performs a predetermined number (14 in this embodiment) of winning balls. This payout mechanism will be described later. On the other hand, a pachinko ball that has not won a prize enters the out mouth 26 and becomes an out ball.

When the pachinko ball wins the starting winning opening 4 and is detected by the winning detection sensor 5, random numbers are respectively assigned by the reach effect selection program and the reach effect selection program.

After that, the special symbols 32a, 32b, 32c displayed on the symbol display device 30 start to change, and when a certain time has elapsed after the start of the change, the special symbols 32a, 32b, 32c in the order of left, middle and right. Stops changing and the design is confirmed. Therefore, in this embodiment, the special symbol 32a on the right side
The first stop symbol, the special symbol 32b in the second stop symbol,
The special symbol 32c on the left side is called a third stop symbol.

Then, if the value of the random number obtained from the jackpot random number generation range value is the same as the predetermined jackpot random number value, reach is applied, and after the reach effect, it becomes a specific game state (also called a jackpot game state). The jackpot screen is displayed on the entire display area 50 of the symbol display device 30. Various effects such as reach effects are also displayed in the display area 50.

The number of pachinko balls that have won the starting winning opening 4 is stored in a reserved ball storage memory (RAM 60b; reserved ball number storage means) of the pachinko gaming machine I up to a predetermined maximum number (for example, 4) as a reserved ball. Then, at the end of the variation of the symbols, they are erased one by one. Note that the number stored in the reserved ball storage memory may be referred to as the special symbol variation storage number.

The number of holding balls can be known to the player by the number of lighting of holding ball display LEDs 44, which are holding lamps provided on the game board surface. Then, from the number of the reserved ball display LEDs 44 that are lit, the player can know how much remaining symbol variable display (drum rotation). Therefore, the number of the reserved ball display LEDs 44 that are lit is
It can be said that the starting memory information indicates the predetermined number of valid times (for example, four times) for the winning as the condition for starting the symbol variation.

Further, a big winning device 6 is provided near the start winning opening 4. The special winning device 6 is of a type called a first-class special electric accessory (commonly called an attacker), and has an opening / closing member 7 that closes the special winning opening 8 in a normal state so that a pachinko ball cannot be won. Only in the specific game state, the opening / closing member 7 is tilted toward the front side by a solenoid (not shown) provided on the back surface of the game board to open for a certain period of time so that a pachinko ball can be easily won in the special winning opening 8. It has become. The fixed period is, for example, a period until a predetermined time (about 29 to 30 seconds) elapses or until a predetermined number (9 to 10 balls) of winning balls are generated.

A special winning ball detecting sensor is arranged so as to detect a pachinko ball when a winning is made in the special winning opening 8, and the special winning pachinko ball 8'is detected. In addition, a continuous winning area (a continuous character, a V zone provided inside the attacker; not shown) provided so as to pass with a predetermined probability is provided inside the inside, and passes through this continuous winning area. Continuous ball detection sensor (not shown) arranged to detect a pachinko ball
The continuous winning prize (successive winning a prize) is detected by the pachinko ball, and the obtained big winning detection signal and continuous winning detection signal are input to the RAM 60 of the main controller 60.
b (prize information storage means). Therefore, the program incorporated in the ROM 60c of the main controller 60 is used to execute the continuous control of the special winning device 6 by the signals detected by the special winning detection sensor and the continuous ball detecting sensor. When the continuous winning ball detection sensor detects the continuous winning ball, the opening / closing member 7 is opened so that the pachinko ball can easily win the special winning opening 8, and the special winning ball detecting sensor detects the large winning pachinko ball. Then, prize balls are generated, and the payout mechanism performs a predetermined number (for example, 15) of prize balls. Therefore, a big hit occurs, there are 10 winning balls in one round, and if you continue up to 16 rounds with continuous winning balls, the payout mechanism will give a maximum of 2400 winning balls (15 × 10 × 16 rounds). To do.

That is, a pachinko ball wins the starting winning opening 4 and the winning detection sensor 5 (starting winning ball detecting means 4) becomes O.
Then, random numbers are assigned by the jackpot determination program, the symbol determination program, and the variation pattern determination program incorporated in the ROM 60b of the main controller 60. Therefore, if the random number value assigned by the jackpot determination program is the same as the predetermined jackpot random number value, it is determined as a jackpot, and the combination content of the symbols is determined by the random number value assigned by the symbol determination program for jackpot. The variation pattern of the effect including the reach is determined by the random number value assigned by the variation pattern determination program for.

[Payment Mechanism for Game Media (Pachinko Balls)] Next, a payout mechanism for pachinko balls will be described with reference to FIG. The pachinko ball payout mechanism has a supply ball storage function, a prize ball distribution function, and a pachinko ball transfer function. Further, the supply ball storage function is performed by the supply ball storage tank 100 shown in FIG.
The prize ball distribution function is performed by the prize ball distribution device 12
0, and the pachinko ball transport function is performed by the pay-out standby ball passage 110 and the discharge ball passage 111.

The supply ball storage tank 100 stores the pachinko balls supplied to the respective pachinko game machines I from the supply machines on the island, which is a set of the pachinko game machines, and distributes the prize ball distribution device 120.
It is a device for supplying to a tank main body 101, a ball cutting information output device 102, and a payout ball aligning unit 103. The supply ball storage tank 100 also serves to store prize balls and balls for lending by lending balls.

The ball-cutting information output device 102 notifies that the pachinko balls to be paid out are insufficient. Further, the ball-cutting information output device 102 has a function of outputting the presence / absence information of the supply balls stored in the storage function to equipment (a hall computer or the like) outside the pachinko gaming machine. The presence / absence of a supply ball is detected by a tank ball cut detection switch. This tank bulb cut detection switch is connected to the external information terminal and output to the outside. This function prompts the equipment outside the pachinko gaming machine to replenish the gaming machine with the pachinko ball when the supply ball runs out.

The payout ball aligning unit 103 arranges the pachinko balls stored by the storage function into two rows and arranges the payout ball passage 1
10 and prize ball distribution device 120.

The prize ball distributing device 120 is classified into four types, that is, a prize ball paying function, a ball lending function, a ball lending information output function, and an error detecting function.

The prize ball payout function is a function for paying out the number of prize balls corresponding to the prize balls detected by the "prize ball detection function (the prize opening switch 5 etc.)", and the ball lending function is the prepaid card unit. It is a function of paying out a lending ball for each unit (for example, about 25 balls corresponding to 100 yen) based on a ball lending request from II. Then, the selection of the prize ball payout function mode or the ball lending function mode is performed by the switching operation of the sprocket 122, and is detected by the prize ball detection switch 126 and the ball lending detection switch 127.

The ball lending information output function is a function for outputting ball lending information to a facility (such as a hall computer) outside the pachinko gaming machine, and indicates that the switching operation of the sprocket 122 has been switched to the ball lending function mode side. It is carried out by detecting.

The error detecting function is performed by the prize ball distributing device 120.
Is a function to stop the payout operation and notify the failure to the outside.

[Description of Main Control Program] Next, the main controller 60 executes the main control program to perform "power-on process (see FIG. 5)" and "system timer interrupt process".
(Refer to FIG. 6) "and" Power interruption interrupt processing (Refer to FIG. 7) "will be described based on each flowchart. The main controller 60
The order of priority of program execution performed by is the order of (a) power-on processing, (b) system timer interrupt processing, and (c) power-off interrupt processing.

As shown in FIG. 5, the power-on process is the first process to be executed after the power is turned on, and is repeatedly executed after the initial setting such as the operation setting of the CPU 60a of the main controller 60 is performed. Configure loop processing.

That is, when the power is turned on, the CPU 6
0a is the CPU 60a, such as permission to access the RAM with built-in CPU
Performs initial setting processing related to the operation (step 10).
1).

Next, the CPU 60a performs a power-off check process (step 102). In the power-off check process, whether the power is turned on after the power-off occurs or not (whether the power is restored from the normal state or the normal state is started) is distributed. There are three items for this distribution condition: (1) the state of the RAM clear switch, (2) the value of the flag that is set when the power is cut off, (3) the contents of all RAM areas when the power is cut off, and the total contents when the power is turned on. The contents of the RAM area.

In the condition (1) of the state of the RAM clear switch, when it is "ON", it is started from the normal state, and when it is "OFF", (2) the condition of the value of the flag set when the power is cut off. Check.

(2) Under the condition of the value of the flag to be set when a power failure occurs, when the value of the flag is "0", the normal state is started, and when the value of the flag is "other than 0",
(3) Check the conditions of the contents of all RAM areas when power is turned off and the contents of all RAM areas when power is turned on.

(3) Under the conditions of the contents of all RAM areas when power is turned off and the contents of all RAM areas when power is turned on, all RA
If the contents of the M area are "mismatch", the normal state is started, and if the contents of all the RAM areas are "match", the power supply is restored.

Next, the CPU 60a determines whether or not the power supply is restored (step 103). If the result of the determination is that the power supply is restored (step 103; YES), the CPU 60a starts up from the power supply restoration (step 103). 104).

Starting from the power-off recovery in step 104, the stack pointer is restored, the return command is transmitted to each control command corresponding to the game state immediately before the power-off occurs, each register is restored, the interrupt state is restored, etc. After executing these, the process is returned when the power is turned on and the subsequent processes are repeated.

On the other hand, as a result of the judgment, if the power supply is not recovered (step 103; NO), the system is started from the normal state (step 105). The activation of the normal state in step 105 includes initializing the stack pointer, "clearing all RAM areas to 0", and initializing the RAM area at the time of normal activation.
The process proceeds to step 106.

In step 106, the CPU 60a performs a random number updating process with the random number value obtained from the random number generating circuit. In this random number update processing, the CPU 60a performs update processing such as update of special symbol initial value random number, update of random number for effect selection, update of random number for symbol selection out of special symbol, and the like. The special symbol initial value random number means a start random number value that returns to the initial starting point when the special symbol jackpot determination random number area is updated. The random number for effect selection is a random number for determining the game content of the change at the start of the change. Further, the special symbol out-of-symbol selection random number means a random number for determining the stopped symbol at the time of out-of-shift variation. Also, the processing of step 106 is a main loop structure,
Update processing such as update of special symbol initial value random number, update of random number for effect selection, update of random number for special symbol deviation, and the like are repeated.

Next, as shown in FIG. 6, the system timer interrupt process is a process executed periodically (for example, 3 ms) to update the timer and the random number for special symbol jackpot determination.

That is, when the system timer interrupt process is activated, the CPU 60a saves each register (step 201). Next, the RAM area is initialized (step 202), and at the same time, the random numbers for special symbol jackpot determination are updated (step 203). In the RAM area initial setting in step 202, the output port buffer area and the like are initialized.

Next, the CPU 60a reads a port (step 204). When reading this port, CP
U60a performs a switch-related reading and edge detection such as a start winning ball detection sensor (first type start opening switch) 5 and the like,
Next, the CPU 60a manages switch input (step 205).

Next, the CPU 60a monitors for abnormalities such as a supply-ball out error and a plate full error (step 20).
6), special symbol control (special symbol management processing) is performed (step 207). This special symbol control (special symbol management process)
In, the CPU 60a performs management from the start of variation of the special symbol to the stop and prepares for command transmission to the symbol control device 61. In this case, when the variation starts, the content of the variation such as the collision determination and the variation time is determined. Also, C
The PU 60a also determines a big hit, and in the case of a big hit, manages the number of big hit rounds, a special winning opening opening / closing check, and the like.

Next, the CPU 60a performs normal symbol control (step 208). In this normal symbol control, C
PU60a normally manages from the start of variation of the symbol to the stop, and prepares the command transmission to the symbol control device. In this case, due to the detection of the detection sensor (not shown) on the game board 1, at the start of the normal symbol fluctuation, the small hit determination of the fluctuation and the fluctuation time are determined, and in the case of a hit, the ordinary electric accessory 4a, 4b Management such as opening and closing check of

The ordinary symbol means that the variable display device provided in the vicinity of the winning opening makes it easy to win the prize, provided that the variable display portion is displayed in a predetermined manner. It refers to a symbol or the like displayed on the variable display unit, which has the property of being variably moved.

Next, the CPU 60a controls the lamp controller 6
A command is transmitted to No. 2 to perform lamp control (step 209). That is, in this lamp control, the CPU 60a prepares to send a command corresponding to the game state of the special symbol (for example, a lamp that informs the player of the game state of the special symbol). Furthermore, the prize ball payout state display lamp command is transmitted.

Next, the CPU 60a causes the payout control device 64
Command is transmitted to the player to perform prize ball payout control (step 210). That is, in the prize ball payout control, the CPU 60a refers to the value of the prize ball counter area updated in the switch input management process, and prepares for sending a command for the number of prize balls corresponding to each switch and confirms the prize ball payout RAM. Area update and prize ball counter area value "-1"
Update. In addition, in the prize ball payout control, the CPU 60
The a also performs control for promoting or suppressing the number of payouts, which will be described later.

Next, the CPU 60a sets an output signal and a gaming machine test signal to a hall computer (not shown), and outputs external information (step 211). The signal set here is a special symbol jackpot signal or the like.

Next, the CPU 60a transmits the command obtained by each control process to each of the sub control devices 61 to 65 (step 212).

Next, the CPU 60a outputs the signal set in the special symbol control, the normal symbol control and the external information output to the output port (step 213).

Next, the CPU 60a performs a reset process for each register (step 214), permits an interrupt (step 215), and returns to the process before the system timer interrupt process.

The power interruption interrupt process is a process executed when a power interruption interrupt occurs, as shown in FIG. That is, the CPU 60a of the main controller 60 saves each register when a power interruption interrupt occurs (step 30).
1), the interrupt state is saved (step 302), and the stack pointer is saved (step 303).

Next, the CPU 60a performs a prize ball detection process (step 304). In this prize ball detection processing, the prize balls detected at the time of power interruption are managed (RAM area is stored).

Next, the CPU 60a performs a RAM checksum calculation process (step 305). In this RAM checksum calculation processing, the CPU 60a performs calculation to check whether the value of the RAM area at the time of power failure occurs is normal when returning from power failure. This calculation method is
This is to add the values of all the RAM areas excluding the AM checksum storage area.
Store in the AM checksum storage area.

Next, the CPU 60a sets the power-off check flag (step 306). When the power-off check flag is set, the CPU 60a stores the power-off occurrence value in the RAM area used for checking whether or not to recover from the power-off when the power is turned on. After the processing of step 306, the CPU 60a waits until the next interrupt processing.

[Ratio Control Means] Next, the ratio control means executed by the main controller 60 by executing the ratio control program will be described. This ratio control program is the R of the main controller 60.
It is registered in OM60c.

In this embodiment, it is assumed that the games continuously played at a predetermined time are one or more of the games consisting of one or more of the unit games. Further, the predetermined time is a time determined within 10 hours to 50 hours, and is 30 hours in this embodiment. Further, the predetermined time is set to a time defined within 0.5 hours to 2 hours, the embodiment is set to 1 hour, and the time is appropriately changed according to the function and performance of the gaming machine. Things are possible.

The ratio control program can be played by supplying a pachinko ball to the pachinko gaming machine I, and the pachinko gaming machine is constructed so that the pachinko ball is paid out from the pachinko gaming machine I as a result of the game. I is a control program that describes means for keeping the ratio of the total number of paid-out pachinko balls due to a prize to the total number of paid-out pachinko balls paid out from the pachinko gaming machine I as a result of a game, within a predetermined range. . Then, the ratio control program is executed by the control means (main controller 60) that executes the control means for controlling the ratio within a predetermined range set in advance for a predetermined time.

In this embodiment, the handle 28
The game ball launching device 71 is treated as a pachinko ball (the number of used game media) launched in a predetermined time by the operation of, and is treated as a prize ball by a prize prize for the number of paid game media paid out from the payout mechanism. The pachinko gaming machine I is ratio-controlled so that the ratio of the number of payout game media (number of pachinko balls) that can be paid out from the mechanism falls within a certain range.

[0125] In the present embodiment, the prize winning is usually one winning (the winning opening switch 5 of the winning device).
It is a prize in which many pachinko balls are paid out by being detected by.

When compared with a general ball-and-ball game machine, the winning opening 4
Movable wing piece (movable member) that can be electrically moved to the vicinity
The prize winning device provided with 4a and 4b is called a prize (for example, an electric tulip), and the prize winning at the prize opening of the prize is defined as a prize for winning (starting prize). In addition, by continuously operating the winning character continuously, the winning winning part of the winning character of the winning character (V zone provided inside the attacker) that can obtain a large amount of game media is a continuous winning character. A prize (for example, an attacker prize or a big prize),
It is treated as one of the prize prizes. Furthermore, although it is an exception, even if the amount of paid-out pachinko balls is small, including no pachinko balls, or is relatively large, a prize for which a special right is obtained by the prize may be included as a character prize. In the present invention, the prize for which most of the pachinko balls are paid out, or the prize prize for any of the contents described in the general example may be adopted.

Further, the ratio control of this embodiment is characterized in that the upper limit value is defined as the predetermined range, but the lower limit value is also defined, so that a large profit or profit is surely given to the player. The value of the ratio is set to fall within a certain range where a disadvantage is less likely to occur.

Further, the main controller 60, which controls and controls by the ratio control program of this embodiment, has a total payout pachinko obtained by winning a prize for a total payout pachinko ball number in a game continuously performed in a predetermined time. A function as a ratio suppression control program (means) that sets an upper limit on the ratio of the number of balls and controls so as not to exceed the upper limit, or a role ratio control program (means) that is executed by a ratio promotion control program (means) Is equipped with.

Then, the ratio control program (means)
In the accessory ratio control means, the predetermined range defined with respect to the predetermined time is defined as an upper limit value of 0.7 in the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 8 or 10, and a lower limit thereof. The value is specified as 0.5 times.

The upper limit value and the lower limit value are appropriately determined as necessary, and the value of the ratio defined as within the predetermined range provides a significant profit at least in a relatively short time. Not be given, and without giving the player a fantastic expectation that a significant profit may be obtained at least in a relatively short time,
The goal is to set a numerical value that does not cause a big disadvantage as a result of being absorbed in the game.

ROM 60 provided in main controller 60
In c, as shown in FIG. 10, the predetermined range (0.7 to
The character ratio control program for performing the control processing so as to express the relationship between the ratio and time defining 0.5) is registered. In addition, in FIG. 10, the vertical axis represents the ratio and the horizontal axis represents the time, and the curve (a) is obtained by winning a prize for the total number of paid-out pachinko balls paid out from the pachinko gaming machine I as a result of the game. It is one example showing the ratio of the total number of paid-out pachinko balls for each hour.

Therefore, in the accessory proportional control means, the main controller 60 divides 30 hours into 15 equal intervals, for example, every 2 hours (d), and the payout mechanism is treated as all prize balls obtained as a result of the game. Calculate the ratio of all the pachinko balls (the number of payout game media) paid out in the prize to the pachinko balls (the number of payout game media) paid out from, and the calculated ratio is in the predetermined range shown in the graph of FIG. (0.7-0.
5) is repeatedly monitored (see FIG. 8), and if it is out of the predetermined range, an instruction is given to the suppression control means or the acceleration control means described later as the accessory ratio control means. A command is issued, and the accessory ratio control process is performed so that the accessory ratio falls within the predetermined range. Also,
The period of monitoring may be monitored not every time as shown in the embodiment (FIG. 10) but every predetermined number of times or each number of paid-out pachinko balls that has reached a predetermined amount.

Further, the main controller 60, which is controlled by the ratio control means of this embodiment, is a continuous winning combination capable of continuously winning a prize for the total number of paid-out pachinko balls in a game executed in a predetermined time. By setting an upper limit on the ratio of the total number of pachinko balls paid out in the prize, a ratio suppression control means for controlling so as not to exceed the upper limit, or as a continuous accessory ratio control means for executing processing by the ratio promotion control means It also has functions.

Then, in the continuous accessory ratio control means in the ratio control means, the predetermined range defined for the predetermined time is the upper limit value of the ratio as shown in FIGS. 9 and 11 in this embodiment. It is defined as 0.6 times, and its lower limit value is specified as 0.4 times.

The upper limit value and the lower limit value are appropriately determined as necessary, and the ratio of the ratio defined as within the predetermined range is more profitable at a time than the prize winning. Players are given the fantastic expectation that they will not be able to make a significant profit in a relatively small number of times by winning consecutive role prizes that are easy to obtain, and that they may be able to make a significant profit in a relatively small number of times. The goal is to set a numerical value that will not cause a major disadvantage as a result of being absorbed in the game.

ROM 60 provided in main controller 60
In c, as shown in FIG. 11, the predetermined range (0.6 to
Registered is a continuous accessory ratio control means for performing a control process so as to express the relationship between the ratio and time defining 0.4). In addition, in FIG. 11, the vertical axis represents the ratio and the horizontal axis represents time, and the curve (b) is the continuous winning a prize for the total number of paid-out pachinko balls paid out from the pachinko gaming machine I as a result of the game. This is one example in which the ratio of the total number of pachinko balls to be paid out obtained is expressed every hour.

Therefore, in the continuous accessory ratio control program, the main controller 60 pays out every 30 hours, for example, every 2 hours (d) as 15 prizes, as all prize balls treated as a result of the game. The ratio of all the pachinko balls (the number of payout game media) paid out in continuous winning prizes to the pachinko balls (the number of payout game media) paid out from the mechanism is calculated, and the calculated ratio is shown in the graph of FIG. It is repeatedly monitored whether it is within the predetermined range (0.6 to 0.4) (see FIG. 9), and if it is outside the predetermined range, the continuous accessory ratio control means is used. An instruction command is given to the suppression control means or the acceleration control means, which will be described later, so that the continuous accessory ratio control processing is performed so that the processing is within the predetermined range. Further, the period of monitoring may be monitored not for each time as shown in the embodiment (FIG. 11) but for each fixed number of games or each number of paid-out pachinko balls that has reached a predetermined amount.

Although the ratio control processing of the above-mentioned embodiment is composed of the accessory ratio control means and the continuous accessory ratio control means, the respective ratio control means are superposed at the same time. A control process to be executed is performed so that the player is more surely balanced with less profit or disadvantage. The value of the ratio may be set within a certain range, or either one of them may be set. You may use only the said process of ratio control.

Next, the payout ball number control processing executed by the CPU 60a will be described with reference to FIG. That is, the CPU 60
a is the presence or absence of a firing operation (detection by the firing ball detection means 128)
Is monitored (step 401), and if there is no firing operation (step 401: NO), time count stop processing is performed (step 402), and the process returns to the processing of step 401 and waits until there is a firing operation.

On the other hand, if there is a firing operation (step 401: YES), the CPU 60a performs a predetermined time count updating process (step 403) and determines whether there is prize ball detection information (step 404). If there is no prize ball detection information (step 404: NO), the CPU 60a returns to the processing of step 401 and repeats the processing.

On the other hand, if the prize ball detection information is present (step 404: YES), the CPU 60a updates the first addition value for adding all the prize ball detection information based on the predetermined detection information (step 405).

Next, the CPU 60a determines whether or not the prize is won (step 406). If it is not the prize (step 406: NO), the CPU 60a proceeds to the process of step 408.
If it is a prize winning (step 406: YES), it is updated with the second addition value added based on the prize award ball information (step 407).

The process of detecting a game ball performed by the main controller 60 is performed as shown in FIG. That is, the CPU 60a monitors whether or not a prize ball payout ball is detected (detection by the prize ball payout detection means 126) based on the information that the game ball is detected in the game ball detection information processing (step 5).
01) Next, it is monitored whether or not a payout ball for winning a prize is detected (for example, the start winning ball detection means 4 is detected) (step 503).

Then, the CPU 60a is determined to detect the prize-ball payout ball (step 501: YES), and generates an update command for the first addition value (step 405) (step 5).
02). Further, if the CPU 60a is determined to detect a prize winning ball (step 503: YES), the CPU 60a generates an update command for the second added value (step 407) (step 5).
04). If it is not determined that the prize-ball payout is detected (step 501: NO), the out-ball detecting means 26 'detects the ball as a lost ball.

In step 408, the CPU 60a monitors whether a predetermined time has passed. As a result of monitoring, if the predetermined time has passed (step 408: YE
S), the CPU 60a stores the values of the first added value and the second added value in the storage medium, respectively (step 409). Next, the CPU 60a calculates the stored ratio of "first addition value / second addition value" (step 410), and determines whether or not the calculated value exceeds the set upper limit value (step 411). It is determined whether or not the value is below the set lower limit value (step 413). On the other hand, if the predetermined time has not elapsed (step 408: NO), the CPU 60a
The process returns to step 401 to repeat the process until the predetermined time is reached.

Next, the CPU 60a judges in the step 411 if the set upper limit value is exceeded (step 4
11: YES), suppression management processing is performed (step 41).

O), and the process of step 603 is repeated again.

On the other hand, if the award ball detection information is present (step 603: YES), the CPU 60a carries out the update continuation process of the stored first addition value (step 604).

Next, the CPU 60a determines whether or not it is a prize winning (step 605), and if it is not a prize winning (step 605: NO), shifts to the processing of step 607.
If it is a prize winning (step 605: YES), update continuation processing of the stored second added value is performed (step 60).
6).

At step 607, the CPU 60a calculates the ratio of "first continuous addition value / second continuous addition value", and at step 608, the calculated value is equal to or lower than the set quasi-upper limit value set below the set upper limit value. Or not. If it is not less than or equal to the set upper limit value (step 608: NO), step 603
Return to processing.

On the other hand, if it is less than or equal to the set upper limit value (step 608: YES), a stop command for the state being executed by the suppression control means is output (step 609) to continue the first and second addition values. The processing unit is initialized (step 61).
0), the suppression management process ends.

The promotion management process (step 414) is shown in FIG.
As shown in FIG. That is, the CPU 60a
Initializes the updated value of the time count, the first and second addition values and the first and second addition processing units stored in the storage medium (step 611), and promotes winnings other than winning the prize. The execution instruction of the control means is output (step 612).

Next, the CPU 60a determines whether or not there is prize ball detection information (step 613). CPU 60a
If there is no prize ball detection information (step 613: N
O), and the process of step 613 is repeated again.

On the other hand, if the prize ball detection information is present (step 613: YES), the CPU 60a carries out the update continuation process of the stored first addition value (step 614).

Next, the CPU 60a determines whether or not it is a prize winning (step 615), and if it is not a prize winning (step 615: NO), shifts to the processing of step 617.
If it is a prize winning (step 615: YES), the update continuation process of the stored second added value is performed (step 61).
6).

At step 617, the CPU 60a makes the first
The ratio of the continuous addition value / the second continuous addition value is calculated, and in step 618, it is determined whether or not the calculated value is equal to or more than the set quasi-lower limit value set above the set lower limit value. If it is not greater than or equal to the set lower limit value (step 618: NO), the process returns to step 613.

On the other hand, if it is equal to or more than the set quasi-lower limit value (step 618: YES), a stop command for the state being executed by the promotion control means is output (step 619) and the first and second addition values are continued. The processing unit is initialized (step 62).
0), the promotion management process ends.

It is assumed that it is a promotion control means to be executed.

That is, in this embodiment, CP
U60a is obtained by simulation when the control for promoting the number of paid pachinko balls by winning at least one of winnings other than the winning of a prize and continuous winning of a prize is performed by the launching device 71. Based on the data that reflects the results obtained, the launching device 71 repels the ball with a strength such that the pachinko ball reaches a position other than winning the prize or winning the continuous prize or both of the prizes. Control to automatically adjust the strength.

For example, the CPU 60a in the main controller 60 provided inside the gaming machine issues a command to the RAM 60b so as to store the game history of the game contents, and records the game history. ROM60c by the CPU processing in the main control unit 60 a program for executing the promotion control command execution processing when the game history is set
Read out from the pachinko ball launching device 71, and control the drive source such as a motor or solenoid installed in the pachinko ball launching device 71. The nail part) is made to judge that the ball will spring, and the elastic force of the pachinko ball is automatically adjusted. In addition, by reflecting the result obtained by the simulation, the data relating to the resilience of the pachinko ball, which is considered to have a high winning probability, is stored in the ROM 60c in the main control device 60 in advance and is stored in the CPU process in the main control device 60. It is also possible to automatically adjust the blast output of the pachinko ball launching device 71 and to control the blasting to an appropriate position in the game board.

Further, in this embodiment, the CPU 6
0a is a control that promotes the number of paid pachinko balls due to at least one of the winnings other than the winning of the winning a prize and the winning of the consecutive winnings, other than the winning a prize hole or other than winning the winning a prize, or both of them. The obstacle or the guide member is hidden or expressed so that the ball can easily enter the winning opening, or the obstacle or the obstacle provided so that the ball does not easily enter the winning opening other than the accessory winning opening. Control is performed to move the guide member so that the ball easily enters a winning opening other than the winning opening.

In the case of the control of this embodiment, the ball connected to the ball is provided by operating the actuator connected to the ball obstacle provided on the game board in accordance with the pre-programmed instruction of the CPU 60a process in the main controller 60. It is possible to exemplify a method of forcibly changing the trajectory of and moving the orbit so that the ball easily enters the winning opening.

Further, in this embodiment, CP
U60a is a control that promotes the number of pachinko balls to be paid out due to at least one of winnings other than the winning of the winning combination and winning of the consecutive winnings, by reflecting the result obtained by the simulation, so that the player cannot see the obstacle. The object is moved subtly or little by little, and control is performed so that the ball easily enters the winning openings other than the winning a prize opening, the winnings other than the continuous winning a prize, or both of these winning openings.

Furthermore, in this embodiment, the CP
Is U60a increasing the upper limit value of the number of holdings which becomes the starting memory when the control for promoting the number of paying pachinko balls by winning at least one of winnings other than winning the prizes and winning continuous prizes is performed? If there is an upper limit limit for storing the number of holdings, control is performed to release this upper limit.

The main control unit 60 determines whether or not the upper limit is set for the reserved numerical value relating to the right of the winning start winning, and the payout control unit 64 side detects the winning on the side of the main control unit 60 and generates it. The payout process is performed based on the command corresponding to the right of the starting prize. Therefore, in the case of the present embodiment, in the accelerated control state, a program for increasing the upper limit value or canceling the upper limit limit of the reserved number and continuing to store the program by transmitting the command is stored in the ROM 6
The control in the main control unit 60, which is stored in
This is carried out by the PU 60a processing so as to eliminate the occurrence of an ineffective starting winning prize state.

Furthermore, in this embodiment, the CP
U60a is a control that promotes the number of paid-out pachinko balls due to at least one of winnings other than the winning of a winning combination or winning of a consecutive winnings, is a memorable upper limit value of the number of holdings that is a starting memory when it is held. Increase or release the storable upper limit of the reserved number, store the range up to the upper limit after increasing beyond the upper limit before increasing, or the upper limit before increasing The memory over is stored and stored as another memory.

According to this embodiment, since the increased number of memories is also preserved and stored, the memory is read out when necessary and the profit corresponding to the stored amount is obtained. It can be averaged in the form of burdening the player at the time of adjustment.

Furthermore, in this embodiment, CP
The U60a controls the promotion of the number of paid pachinko balls due to at least one of winnings other than the winning of a prize or continuous winning of a prize, except that the control of promoting a number of pachinko balls other than winning a prize of a prize or other than winning a prize of a continuous prize or of winning both of these The payout condition when a winning is detected is changed so as to detect one or more balls per ball.

Furthermore, in this embodiment, CP
The U60a controls the promotion of the number of paid pachinko balls due to at least one of winnings other than the winning of a prize or continuous winning of a prize, except that the control of promoting a number of pachinko balls other than winning a prize of a prize or other than winning a prize of a continuous prize or of winning both of these Change the payout condition when detecting a prize to detect more than one ball per ball, and save and store the number of prizes and the number of detected prizes after the change as separate memory. To do.

According to this embodiment, the CPU 60a stores and stores the increased number of winning prizes. Therefore, the memory is read when necessary and the profit corresponding to the stored profit is obtained. It can be averaged in the form of burdening the player when adjusting the amount.

In the case of this embodiment, the RAM 60b of the main controller 60 may be provided with a counter for promoting control state. The counter in this example is updated by +1 every time a game ball is detected by the winning opening switch. However, when the control state is promoted, by changing the update to +2 or more for each of the detections of winnings other than the winning prize for the winning character or winnings for the winning combination of the winning characters or both of these winnings, the winnings other than the winning prize for the winning character or the winnings for the continuous winning character or It is possible to increase the number of payout game media for both of these.

Further, in this embodiment, CP

Since each game is distributed and returned or provided every time, the degree of profit and disadvantage is averaged over time, so that the game can be played with peace of mind.

[Operation of this Embodiment] According to this embodiment, the upper limit value of the ratio of the total number of paid-out pachinko balls obtained in the prize winning for a game continuously played for a predetermined time ( For example, without giving a significantly large profit in a relatively short time exceeding 0.7 times) to the player, a large profit in a short time exceeding the upper limit value (0.7 times) of the ratio at the maximum. Is not given to the player, and the maximum profit of the ratio (0.7 times) is obtained at the maximum, so that no large profit can be obtained at least in a relatively short time. Also, it is possible to prevent a player from having a fantastic expectation that he or she may be able to make a big profit in a short time, and to prevent a big demerit as a result of being absorbed in the game. Can be provided.

According to the embodiment, the ratio of the total number of paid-out pachinko balls obtained in continuous winning of prizes included as one of winning prizes for games played continuously for a predetermined period of time. Without giving the player a significant profit in a relatively short time exceeding the upper limit value (for example, 0.6 times),
The maximum profit of the above ratio (0.6 times) is not given to the player in an extremely short time exceeding the maximum ratio of the above ratio (0.6 times), and the maximum profit of the above ratio (0.6 times) is reached at the maximum. Since it is only possible to obtain it, there is no significant profit in a very short time, and there is no fantastic expectation that the player may get a significant profit in a short time. It is also possible to prevent a great disadvantage from occurring as a result of being absorbed in the game, and it is possible to provide a sound game.

Further, when applied to a ball game machine such as a pachinko game machine, since the time is specified, it is easy to comply with the game machine test standard concerning the profit gained within the time, and whether the test standard is satisfied or not. Can be made easy to understand, and is useful for quality control for quality assurance, and a great advantage or disadvantage of the player may occur for a relatively long time, for example, in the range of 2 days to 1 week, and vice versa. It is possible that, on the average, no significant profit or disadvantage is given to the same player, as this may happen.

Furthermore, conventionally, the upper limit is set to the ratio of the total number of paid-out pachinko balls to the total number of paid-out pachinko balls in a game played continuously for a predetermined time, based on at least one of the prize winning and / or the above-mentioned continuous prize winning. There was no such restriction. Therefore, according to this configuration, the set limit is strictly followed without depending on the probability of winning the prize or at least one of the above-mentioned continuous prizes, so that a sound game is guaranteed to be provided. However, you can freely design the winning probability. In addition, in the case of pachinko machines, it takes a lot of time and effort to design the gauge in order to keep the statistical probability that a ball will enter the winning prize hole or continuous winning prize hole within the desired range. However, since it is the total statistical probability, it cannot be strictly included in the desired range, and for the same reason, no strict limit was set, but according to this configuration, Independent of the gauge design, the limits can be strictly followed easily and surely.

Furthermore, according to this embodiment, since the ratio is limited, it is possible to equalize the number of pachinko balls to be paid out for each gaming machine, so that gaming machines having different business policies can be played. It is possible to prevent injustice from occurring.

The amount of money for each game medium is stored in the ROM in advance and is input from the outside to make detailed settings based on the business policy and the game situation according to the judgment of the manager of the game hall. You may do it.

With respect to the number of payout game media that can be paid out from the gaming machine as a result of the game, an upper limit is set for the ratio of the total number of payout game media by winning the prize to the total number of payout game media in the game continuously performed in a predetermined time. It is characterized by that.

The prize winning is usually a winning in which a large amount of game media is paid out by one winning (which is detected by the winning sensor of the winning device). When compared with a typical ball game machine, a winning device provided with a movable member that can be electrically moved in the vicinity of the winning opening is called a winning object (for example, an electric tulip), and the winning opening of the winning object is won. The case of winning is defined as a prize winning (for example, starting mouth winning). In addition, the continuous winning of prizes (for example, an attacker prize or a big prize) by winning the prizes by which a large amount of game media can be obtained by continuously and continuously operating the prizes is performed. Treated as one of the prizes. Further, although it is exceptional, even if the prize is a small amount including the absence of the payout game medium or a relatively small amount, a prize for which a special right is obtained by the prize may be included as a prize for prize.
