Description

[0001]
TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a gaming machine that performs a lottery based on a start signal of a pachinko machine, a slot machine, or the like, and provides a game according to a result of the lottery.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Conventionally, in response to the input of a start signal, a special symbol starts to fluctuate, and when the special symbols are aligned with a specific symbol, a special game state is established, which is advantageous to a player such as opening a special winning opening. A gaming machine that transitions to a state is used. For example, in accordance with the mode of the special symbols arranged, after providing a normal winning game, the game shifts to a game with a normal lottery probability, or after providing a game with a high probability, shifting to a game with a high probability of a lottery probability The machine is used.
[0003]
In addition, such a gaming machine is provided with a notice function for providing a normal hit game or a high-probability hit game, that is, for giving an advance notice of occurrence of a so-called big hit game or occurrence of a reach state prior to the occurrence of the big hit game. Many models have been tightened.
Moreover, there is disclosed a technique for performing such a notice function also for a jackpot or a reach stored in a start memory for storing a change in a special symbol (see Patent Documents 1 and 2).
[0004]
That is, the start memory is read in advance, and if there is a big hit or reach in the start memory, a display or a sound effect is output on the display device so that a big hit or reach can be generated in advance for the player. A technique for informing is disclosed.

[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, in the prior art, in a gaming machine having a game with a normal lottery probability and a game with a high probability of a lottery probability, a so-called probability-variable type gaming machine, a notice of a jackpot in advance may be erroneously made. there were. That is, in order to obtain a normal lottery probability and a high-probability lottery probability, the probability-variation-type gaming machine determines a random number for determining whether or not the value corresponds to a hit game, and a normal lottery probability. In comparison with the case, a method of determining a lottery probability with a higher probability is adopted. For this reason, even with the same random number, it is determined to be a hit at a high probability of the lottery probability, but may be determined to be out of the ordinary lottery probability. For example, in the high probability lottery probability, the random numbers determined to be hit are “7”, “11”, “13”, “17”, and “19”. May be only “7”.
[0007]
Therefore, in such a probability-variable gaming machine, it is possible to provide a game that is several times better in a game with a high probability of lottery than in a game with a high probability of lottery.
For this reason, if a notice of a jackpot is read in advance in a game with a high probability of a lottery probability, a large number of jackpot notices will be generated, and two big hit random numbers may be included in the starting memory.
[0008]
However, if two large hit random numbers are entered in the starting memory and a normal hit game is deducted in the first big hit game, the second random number will be a big hit in the normal lottery probability game. Since the determination is made, it is determined with extremely high probability that it is out of range. Therefore, in a game with a high probability of a lottery probability, there is a possibility that, when the second game is read in advance, a warning may be erroneously notified that a big hit has occurred.
[0009]
That is, there is a possibility that the reliability of the announcement of the big hit may be reduced.
The present invention prevents a decrease in the reliability of a jackpot announcement and enables the announcement of a jackpot to be made without error, thereby enabling the provision of a gaming machine having a game performance according to a design concept. The aim is to improve the playability.
[0010]
Means for Solving the Problems and Effects of the Invention
According to another aspect of the present invention, there is provided a gaming machine, comprising: a lottery means for extracting a random number based on a start signal input; and a lottery result storage for storing the random number extracted by the lottery means. Means, taking out the random number stored in the lottery result storage means, determining whether the random number is a value corresponding to a hit game based on the random number and the current lottery probability. It is determined whether the hit game is a normal hit game that provides a game with a normal lottery probability or a high probability per game that provides a game with a high probability of a lottery probability that has a higher lottery probability than the normal hit game. Winning game determining means, and game providing means for providing a normal hitting game, or a high probability hitting game, a normal lottery probability game, or a high probability lottery probability game in accordance with the judgment result of the hitting game judging means. Whether the random number stored in the lottery result storage means leads to the provision of a normal hit game or the provision of a high probability game is determined by the lottery at the time when the random number is taken out of the lottery result storage means by the hit game determination means. A hit game announcement means for judging based on the probability; and a notice notification means for giving a hit announcement when it is determined that the hit game announcement means leads to the provision of the normal hit game or the provision of the high probability per game. That is the gist.
[0011]
Thus, in the gaming machine of claim 1, when the lottery means extracts a random number based on the input of the start signal, the lottery result storage means stores the extracted random number.
When the random number is stored in the lottery result storage means in this manner, the hit game determination means retrieves the stored random number and, based on this random number and the current lottery probability, this random number corresponds to the hit game. And whether the determined hit game is a normal hit game that provides a game with a normal lottery probability, or a game with a high probability of a lottery probability higher than the normal hit game. The game providing means determines whether the game to be provided is a game with a high probability, and provides a game with a normal game or a game with a high probability and a game with a normal lottery probability or a game with a high probability of lottery according to the result of the judgment. I do.
[0012]
On the other hand, based on the lottery probability at the time when the random number stored in the lottery result storage means is taken out from the lottery result storage means by the hit game determination means, the provision of the normal hit game or the high probability When it is determined that it is linked to the provision, the announcement notification means hits and gives an announcement.
[0013]
As a result, when the random number is taken out of the lottery result storage means by the hit game determination means and the lottery probability is the normal lottery probability game, the normal lottery probability game is a normal lottery game or a high probability per game. It is possible to judge whether or not the game is linked, and to give a notice of a hit. On the other hand, in the case of a game having a high probability of the lottery probability at the time when the random number is taken out from the lottery result storage means by the hit game determining means, It is possible to judge whether the game of the probability lottery probability is linked to the normal hit game or the high probability hit game, and to perform the hit notice, and in fact, the game providing means performs the normal hit game or the high probability hit game. It matches the result of the judgment by the hit game judging means for making a judgment for providing. Therefore, the announcement of the jackpot announcement is performed without error, and the reliability of the announcement announcement is not reduced, so that it is possible to provide a gaming machine having the game performance according to the design concept.
[0014]
The gaming machine according to the second aspect of the present invention provides the above-mentioned notice notifying means when the above-mentioned hitting game notifying means cannot determine that the hitting game notifying means is linked to the provision of the normal hitting game or the high probability of the hitting game. The gist is the gaming machine according to claim 1, wherein the notification is performed.
[0015]
Thus, in the gaming machine according to claim 2, when the lottery means extracts a random number based on the input of the start signal, the lottery result storage means stores the extracted random number.
When the random number is stored in the lottery result storage means in this manner, the hit game determination means retrieves the stored random number and, based on this random number and the current lottery probability, this random number corresponds to the hit game. And whether the determined hit game is a normal hit game that provides a game with a normal lottery probability, or a game with a high probability of a lottery probability higher than the normal hit game. The game providing means determines whether the game to be provided is a game with a high probability, and provides a game with a normal game or a game with a high probability and a game with a normal lottery probability or a game with a high probability of lottery according to the result of the judgment. I do.
[0016]
On the other hand, when it is determined that the random number stored in the lottery result storage means by the hit game notifying means does not lead to the provision of the normal winning game or the provision of the high probability of the game, the notice notifying means is disengaged and gives the notice. .
As a result, when the random number is taken out of the lottery result storage means by the hit game determination means and the lottery probability is the normal lottery probability game, the normal lottery probability game is a normal lottery game or a high probability per game. By judging whether or not the lottery is linked, it is possible to give a notice of a miss, while on the other hand, in the case of a game having a high probability of a lottery probability when the random number hits and is taken out from the lottery result storage means by the game determination means, By judging whether the game of the probability lottery probability is linked to a normal hit game or a high probability hit game, it is possible to perform a miss notice and actually, the game providing means performs the normal hit game or the high probability hit game. This matches the determination result of the hit game determination means for making a determination to provide. Therefore, the big hit departure notice is performed without error, and the reliability of the notice is not reduced, so that it is possible to provide a gaming machine having the game performance according to the design concept. .
[0017]
The gaming machine according to the third aspect of the present invention provides the above-mentioned notice notifying means when the hit game notifying means cannot determine that the hit game notifying means is linked to the provision of the normal hit game or the high probability of the hit game. The method according to claim 1, wherein the notification is performed, and when the hit game notification means determines that the normal game is provided or the high probability game is provided, the hit notification is performed. The gist is a gaming machine.
[0018]
Thus, in the gaming machine of claim 3, when the lottery means extracts the random number based on the input of the start signal, the lottery result storage means stores the extracted random number.
When the random number is stored in the lottery result storage means in this manner, the hit game determination means retrieves the stored random number and, based on this random number and the current lottery probability, this random number corresponds to the hit game. And whether the determined hit game is a normal hit game that provides a game with a normal lottery probability, or a game with a high probability of a lottery probability higher than the normal hit game. The game providing means determines whether the game to be provided is a game with a high probability, and provides a game with a normal game or a game with a high probability and a game with a normal lottery probability or a game with a high probability of lottery according to the result of the judgment.

[0019]
On the other hand, based on the lottery probability at the time when the random number stored in the lottery result storage means is taken out from the lottery result storage means by the hit game determination means, the provision of the normal hit game or the high probability If it is determined that it is linked to the provision, the announcement notification means performs the hit announcement notification if it is determined, or the miss announcement notification is performed if it is determined that it is deviated.
[0020]
As a result, when the random number is taken out of the lottery result storage means by the hit game determination means and the lottery probability is the normal lottery probability game, the normal lottery probability game is a normal lottery game or a high probability per game. By judging whether or not they are linked, it is possible to make a hit announcement notification or a miss announcement notice, while the random number is taken out from the lottery result storage means by the hit game determination means, and the lottery probability at the time when the random number is taken out of the lottery probability is high. In this case, it is possible to determine whether a game with a high probability of a lottery probability is linked to a normal game or a game with a high probability, and a hit notice or a miss notice can be made. This matches the determination result of the hit game determining means for determining whether to provide the normal hit game or the high probability hit game. Therefore, the jackpot or out-of-office notification is performed without error, the reliability of the notification is not reduced, and it is possible to provide a gaming machine having the game performance according to the design concept. Play.
[0021]
In the gaming machine according to the fourth aspect of the present invention, the execution of the hit notice notification or the miss notice notification by the notice notification means is that the random number extracted by the lottery means is stored in the lottery result storage means. The gist of the present invention is a gaming machine according to any one of claims 1 to 3.
[0022]
Thereby, for example, in the gaming machine, the random number is extracted by the lottery means at almost the same time as when the game ball passes through the starting port or when the start signal is output, and the random number is stored in the lottery result storage means, Almost at the same time as when the game ball passes through the starting port or when the starting signal is output, it is possible to execute the hit notice or the miss notice.
[0023]
As a result, when a game ball passes through the starting port or when the starting lever is operated, it becomes possible to perform a hit notice or a slip notice, so that the player is notified of the hit or a slip notice. It is possible to realize the passing timing of the game ball at the starting port and the operational feeling of the starting lever when a hit comes in from the notification, and it is possible to obtain a feeling of winning. Therefore, an extremely excellent effect of improving the playability is provided.
[0024]
According to a fifth aspect of the present invention, in the gaming machine according to the fifth aspect, the random number for which the hit game determining means determines that the game is a hit game is more frequently used for a high probability per game than for a normal hit game. A gist of the gaming machine according to any one of claims 1 to 5.
[0025]
Thus, in the gaming machine according to claim 5, for example, in a game with a normal lottery probability, a random number that is determined to be a hit game in the case of a game with a high probability of lottery probability may be determined to be an out-of-game. Many occur.
Therefore, if this random number is judged to be hit or miss without considering the lottery probability at the time when the random number is taken out from the lottery result storage means, if a big hit does not actually occur, a notice of the big hit will be given. May be performed, or conversely, a warning may be given in spite of the fact that a big hit actually occurs, but the random number is taken into consideration in consideration of the lottery probability at the time of extracting this random number from the lottery result storage means. By performing the judgment method, the hit notice notification performed by the notice notification means actually matches the judgment result of the hit game judgment means in which the game providing means makes a judgment for providing the normal hit game or the high probability hit game. I do. Therefore, the announcement of the jackpot announcement is performed without error, and the reliability of the announcement announcement is not reduced, so that it is possible to provide a gaming machine having the game performance according to the design concept.
[0026]
According to a sixth aspect of the present invention, there is provided a gaming machine, comprising: a lottery device for extracting a random number based on an input of a start signal; a lottery result storage device for storing a random number extracted by the lottery device; and a lottery result storage device. The determined random number is taken out, based on the random number and the current lottery probability, it is determined whether the random number is a value corresponding to the hit game, and the determined hit game has a normal lottery probability. A winning game determining means for determining whether the game is a normal winning game that provides a high probability of a lottery probability with a higher probability of a lottery than the normal winning game; A game providing means for providing a game per normal, or a game with a high probability, and a game with a normal lottery probability, or a game with a high probability of lottery according to the judgment result by the means, and stored in the lottery result storage means. If the number is linked to the provision of a game per normal or the provision of a game with a high probability, it is determined that the game announcement means for hitting is determined, and the means for notifying the game for success are linked to provision of a game per normal or provision of a game with a high probability. The gist of the present invention is to provide a notification notice means for performing a different notice notice for each random value used by the corresponding game notice means when the judgment is made.
[0027]
Thus, in the gaming machine according to claim 6, when the lottery means extracts a random number based on the input of the start signal, the lottery result storage means stores the extracted random number.
When the random number is stored in the lottery result storage means in this manner, the hit game determination means retrieves the stored random number and, based on this random number and the current lottery probability, this random number corresponds to the hit game. And whether the determined hit game is a normal hit game that provides a game with a normal lottery probability, or a game with a high probability of a lottery probability higher than the normal hit game. The game providing means determines whether the game to be provided is a game with a high probability, and provides a game with a normal game or a game with a high probability and a game with a normal lottery probability or a game with a high probability of lottery according to the result of the judgment. I do.
[0028]
On the other hand, when it is determined whether the random number stored in the lottery result storage means is linked to the provision of the normal winning game or the provision of the high probability winning game by the hitting game notifying means, the hitting game notifying means is determined by the notification notifying means. A different notice is given for each of the random numbers used.
[0029]
As a result, it is determined whether the random number is linked to the provision of the normal winning game or the high probability winning game regardless of the lottery probability at the time when the random number is taken out from the lottery result storing means by the hit game determining means. Nevertheless, even if a big hit notice is issued, the player will immediately recognize that the hit notice has been erroneously issued because the hit notice notified by the notice means differs depending on the value of the random number. It will not be lost.
[0030]
Accordingly, it is possible to prevent the player from being aware that the jackpot announcement has been made erroneously, thereby preventing a decrease in the reliability of the announcement, and providing a gaming machine having the game performance as designed. It has an extremely excellent effect.
According to a seventh aspect of the present invention, in the gaming machine according to the first aspect of the present invention, the presence or absence of the notification is determined for each of the random number values used in the determination by the corresponding game notification means. A gaming machine according to any one of claims 1 to 6, wherein
The gist is to provide
[0031]
This makes it possible to interweave the case where the jackpot is not notified even when the jackpot actually occurs, or to interweave the case where the warning is not given even when the jackpot does not actually occur. .
As a result, it becomes possible to design a gaming machine that brings the reliability of a notice of a big hit or a miss to a desired state.
[0032]
Accordingly, it is possible to prevent the player from being aware that the jackpot announcement has been made erroneously, thereby preventing a decrease in the reliability of the announcement, and providing a gaming machine having the game performance as designed. It has an extremely excellent effect.
In the gaming machine according to the eighth aspect of the present invention, the hitting notice by the notice notifying means or the off notice is notified by sound notification, sound notification, light emission notification, color change notification, design change notification, character change notification, and movement of concrete members. The gist of the gaming machine according to any one of claims 1 to 7, wherein the notification is performed by notification, tactile notification, smell notification, or image notification.

A process of taking out the value of the jackpot symbol random number buffer 63 described later in FIG. 7 in which the value is set and determining a stop symbol at the time of a special symbol jackpot, or a process of selecting and determining a stop symbol when it is determined to be out of place. Is performed (S410), and a variation pattern creation process (S420) for determining the variation pattern is performed.
[0052]
In this variation pattern creation process, for example, one variation pattern is determined from among 94 types of variation patterns of special symbols prepared in advance.
In the variation pattern selected here, it is also determined whether or not to select a specific variation pattern as shown in the timing chart of the special symbol state in FIG.
[0053]
For example, the big hit determination counter at the time when the game ball 13 passes through the first type start-up switch 49 is “7” (a value at which a big hit), and the first sign determination counter (0 to 170) is “11, 13, 15, 17, or 19 ”(probability of about one-tenth of a tenth), or the second sign counter (0 to 170) is“ 7 ”(probability of one-hundredth of a tenth). In this case, the number of pending operations of the first type start-up switch 49 at that time is set in the sign count buffer. In other words, if the number of pending operations of the first-type start-up switch 49 at that time is set in the sign count buffer, the probability is 1 to sufficiency 1 to several tens of minutes (as described later, the number of pending operations is large. The greater the probability that a sign will occur, the greater the hit. Further, the sign by the second sign determination counter is generated with a probability of several tenths to one hundred and several tenths. It should be noted that the number of values of the first sign determination counter, which sets the number of operation suspensions of the first type start-up switch 49 at that time in the sign count buffer, is reduced, and a sign is generated in the case of a big hit. Alternatively, the number of values of the first sign determination counter may be increased to increase the number of signs in the case of a big hit. This is a design matter. Further, the number of the second sign determination counters that generate a sign regardless of the presence or absence of a big hit is increased to a plurality to increase the sign in the case of a miss, or conversely, the count range of the second sign determination counter is set to 0 to It may be increased from 170 to reduce the occurrence of the sign. This is also a design matter.
[0054]
When the setting is made in the sign count buffer in this way, the determination as to whether or not a specific variation pattern is selected is as shown in FIG. That is, when the game ball 13 passes from the first pass to the sixth pass on the first-type starting port switch 49, first, at time t1 of the first pass, the special symbol starts to change. In this passage 1, it is assumed that the sign count buffer is not set. In this state, the sign count buffer is still “0”, and the determination as to whether or not a specific variation pattern has been selected is not selected.
[0055]
Assuming that there are passes 2 to 4 during the special symbol fluctuating from the time point t1 and there is no setting of the sign count buffer (see Chart 1), the sign count buffer is still in this state. It remains at “0”, and the determination as to whether or not a specific variation pattern is selected is made as no selection (see Chart 2).
[0056]
Next, assuming that there is a passage 5 and the sign count buffer is set, “4” is set in the sign count buffer as shown at time t2 (see chart 1), and whether or not a specific variation pattern is selected is determined. The determination is made that there is a selection (see chart 2). In the next pass 6, it is assumed that the sign count buffer is not set (Chart 2). Thereafter, when the change of the special symbol started from the time point t1 ends, the change of the special symbol due to the passage 2 starts at the time point t3. From the change of the special symbol due to the passage 2, a specific variation pattern from the value of the sign count buffer of “4” is selected (see Chart 4). Until it becomes “0” at the point of time t4 at which the change of the special symbol starts (see Chart 3), the change of the special symbol becomes a specific change pattern. That is, the change of the special symbol due to the passage 2, the passage 3, the passage 4, the passage 5, and the passage 6 becomes a specific fluctuation pattern (a fluctuation pattern reminiscent of the possibility of a big hit). Thus, the player knows, by experience, that if a particular variation pattern is continuous, it can be predicted with a very high probability that a big hit will occur, thereby increasing the expectation of the big hit.
[0057]
As described above, when it is determined that a big hit occurs, the special symbol game is set to a specific fluctuation pattern by going back by the value of the number of operation suspensions of the first type start-up switch 49 at that time. In addition, it is possible to give the player an empirical rule that, when a specific fluctuation pattern is continuous, a jackpot is achieved with a very high probability, and the gaming performance of the gaming machine 1 can be improved.
[0058]
The value of the jackpot determination counter (the jackpot lottery value) and the value of the jackpot symbol counter, which are the criteria for selecting the variation pattern described above, are obtained from the jackpot determination random number buffer 61 shown in FIG. The big hit symbol random number buffer 63 shown in FIG.
[0059]
As shown in FIG. 7A, the random number buffer 61 for big hit determination, which provides random numbers linked to the provision of the normal hit game or the high probability game, has five storage areas 61A, 61B, 61C. , 61D, 61E. The storage area 61A is an area for taking out the value of the big hit determination counter.
[0060]
The other storage areas 61B, 61C, 61D, and 61E are areas in which random numbers in a suspended state are stored.
The big hit determination random number buffer 61 including the storage areas 61A, 61B, 61C, 61D, and 61E has a big hit determination that takes any value within a range of values “0 to 350” as shown in FIG. The value of the counter is stored at the time when the game ball 13 passes through the first-type start-up switch 49. Here, the value “7” is a random number that is a big hit in the game with the normal lottery probability and the game with the high probability lottery probability, and the other values “11, 13, 17, 19” are high. Only in the case of the game of the probability lottery probability, it is a random number that is a big hit.
[0061]
On the other hand, the big hit symbol random number buffer 63 which provides a random number for determining whether the game is a normal hit game or a high probability hit game has five storage areas 63A, 63B as shown in FIG. , 63C, 63D, 63E. The storage area 63A in this area is an area for taking out the value of the big hit symbol counter.
[0062]
The other storage areas 63B, 63C, 63D, and 63E are areas in which random numbers in a suspended state are stored.
The jackpot symbol random number buffer 63 having the storage areas 63A, 63B, 63C, 63D, 63E has a jackpot symbol random number buffer 63 taking any value in the range of values "1 to 14" as shown in FIG. The value of the counter is stored at the time when the game ball 13 passes the first-type start-up switch 49. Here, the value “1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13” is tied to a game with a high probability, and the value “2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14” is a game with a normal hit. It is a random number to associate.
[0063]
Next, based on the flowchart of the big hit notice processing routine of FIG. 9, a process of giving a big hit notice or a missing notice will be described.
The big hit notice process of FIG. 9 is started by the game control device 3 at predetermined time intervals (here, 4 msec).
[0064]
First, it is determined whether or not the game memory 13 has passed the first-type start-up switch 49 and the value of the big hit determination counter has been written into the big hit determination random number buffer 61 to determine whether or not the start memory has been written (S500). ). Here, if it is determined that the start memory is not written, the big hit notice process is temporarily terminated.
[0065]
On the other hand, if the start memory is written, a process of inputting the jackpot lottery value which is the value to be written next (the value of the jackpot determination counter) is performed (S510), and the inputted jackpot lottery value is the It is determined whether the value is a hit jackpot notice applicable value (here, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19) (S520), and if it is not the hit jackpot notice value, the hit jackpot notice process is temporarily ended as it is.
[0066]
On the other hand, if it is the jackpot notice corresponding value, the process of reading the symbol storage lottery value of the previous jackpot (the value of the jackpot symbol counter) (described in detail later) from the jackpot symbol random number buffer 63 is performed (S530). It is determined whether the target for reading the big hit symbol storage lottery value is in the symbol storage (S540). The symbol storage lottery value of the previous big hit to be read here is determined based on the value of the random number stored in the big hit random number buffer 61 and the value of the random number stored in the big hit symbol random number buffer 63. This is to read the value of the random number stored in the big hit symbol random number buffer 63 when the random number stored in the random number buffer 61 corresponds to the big hit. When the processing of S510 to S530 is performed last time, the big hit is read. The random numbers stored in the determination random number buffer 61 and the jackpot symbol random number buffer 63 are obtained by reading them from the jackpot symbol random number buffer 63. In other words, the symbol storage lottery value of the previous big hit obtained here is whether the game at the time of performing the processing of S510 to S530 is the normal probability game (here, the read value is “2, 4, 6, 8”). , 10, 12, 14 "(which is a design matter) or a high probability game (here, the read value is" 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13 "(this is a design matter) )).
[0067]
If it is determined in S540 that the symbol storage is present, then if the symbol storage lottery value is “1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13”, that is, whether the probability is high. Is determined (S550). If the probability is high, then a jackpot sound announcement is executed (S560), and the jackpot announcement process is temporarily terminated. By executing the jackpot sound announcement in S560, a jackpot announcement sound execution process (not shown) for outputting a jackpot announcement sound from the speaker 18 is started, and the jackpot announcement sound is actually output from the speaker 18.
[0068]
Note that a buzzer sound, a chime sound, music, an announcement, or the like is used as a jackpot notice sound (design matter).
Further, by executing the big hit sound notice in S560, the movable mascot 22 is driven, and the concrete object 22A operates. For example, the operation of moving the concrete object 22A downward once or several times is performed.
[0069]
Therefore, the player can know that the big hit has entered from the notice sound and the movement of the concrete object 22A, and can feel the joy of the big hit.
On the other hand, if it is determined in S550 that the symbol storage lottery value is not a high probability, that is, it is determined that the symbol storage lottery value is a normal probability, then a value that becomes a big hit only when the jackpot lottery value read in S510 has a high probability, That is, it is determined whether or not the value is "11, 13, 17, 19" (S580). If the value is such that the big hit is obtained only in the case of the high probability, the big hit is executed next (S590). The notice processing ends once. By executing the big hit sound in S590, a big hit sound execution process (not shown) for outputting a sound different from the big hit notice sound (or no sound) from the speaker 18 is started, and the big hit is actually released from the speaker 18. A sound is output.
[0070]
Note that a buzzer sound, a chime sound, music, an announcement, or the like is used as the big hit sound.
In addition, in the execution of the detachment sound in S590, the driving of the movable mascot 22 is not performed.
[0071]
Therefore, the player can know from the notice sound that the big hit has not been made in the current prize to the starting port 25 of the game ball 13.
Also, in S580, if the jackpot lottery value is a value that makes the jackpot even with the normal probability, here, "7", the jackpot sound announcement execution described above is performed (S560), and this jackpot announcement process is temporarily terminated. .
[0072]
On the other hand, if it is determined in S540 that there is no symbol storage lottery value of the previous big hit, it is next determined whether or not the current game is in a high probability lottery state (S570). If it is a game, the big hit sound notice is executed (S560), and the big hit notice processing is once ended.
[0073]
If it is determined in S570 that the current game is not a high-probability game, that is, it is a normal-probability game, then it is determined whether or not the jackpot lottery value described above is a value that will be a big hit only in the case of a high probability. (S580) If the value is such that the big hit is obtained only in the case of the high probability, the big hit miss sound is executed (S590), and the big hit notice processing is once ended. By executing the big hit sound in S590, a big hit sound execution process (not shown) for outputting a sound different from the big hit notice sound (or no sound) from the speaker 18 is started, and the big hit is actually released from the speaker 18. A sound is output.
[0074]
Also, in S580, if the jackpot lottery value is a value that makes the jackpot even with the normal probability, here, "7", the jackpot sound announcement execution described above is performed (S560), and this jackpot announcement process is temporarily terminated. .
When the gaming ball 13 wins the starting port 25 and the jackpot lottery value is stored in the jackpot determination random number buffer 61 by the jackpot notification process of FIG. 9 described above, the stored jackpot lottery value is stored in the jackpot lottery value. It is possible to accurately predict whether or not to be linked. Therefore, by recognizing the occurrence of the advance notice, the player can know the occurrence of the big hit, can wait while expecting the game of the big hit to actually start, and further enhance the enjoyment of the big hit game This makes it possible to achieve an extremely excellent effect of improving the playability.
[0075]
Next, a modified example of the processing performed by the gaming machine 1 will be described.
FIG. 10 is a flowchart of the big hit sound announcement execution processing routine.
The jackpot sound announcement execution processing provides another mode of the operation of the jackpot sound announcement execution (S560) of FIG. 9, and first, the jackpot lottery value read in S510 is input (S600). Next, sound data corresponding to the read jackpot lottery value is selected (S610). The sound data selected here is different from the case where the jackpot lottery value is “7” and the case where the jackpot lottery value is “11, 13, 17, 19”. For example, in the case of "7", a heavy chime sound in which many chords are superimposed, and in the case of other "11, 13, 17, 19", a chime chime for each value.
[0076]
After the selection of the sound data, the sound effect of the sound data is output (S620). The output of the sound data is performed by outputting the sound data to the sound control board 18A and causing the speaker 18 to output the actual sound.
Note that the jackpot sound announcement execution process of FIG. 10 is executed in duplicate with the execution of the jackpot announcement of FIG. 9. Therefore, if the announcement of the jackpot sound is performed, the process always proceeds to the jackpot regardless of any sound data. . Therefore, although the announcement sound is different, the announcement of the jackpot is executed with a probability of 100%, and the reliability of the announcement sound of the player is not reduced.
[0077]
The following modification will be described.
This modified example is an example in which the condition for activating the big hit sound notice execution processing in FIG. 10 is different.
The jackpot notice is performed by executing the jackpot sound notice shown in FIG. 10 after the jackpot notice processing S500 to S520 in FIG. Accordingly, when the jackpot lottery values are “7”, “11”, “13”, “17”, and “19”, a different jackpot announcement sound is output for each value.
[0078]
By doing so, the announcement sound when the jackpot lottery value is “7” is output with 100% reliability, and in the case of other jackpot announcement sounds, this jackpot lottery value Depending on the type of the game at the time when the is taken out is the high-probability game or the normal-probability game, it is determined whether the notice is correct or an error. Therefore, when the distribution rate between the high-probability game and the normal-probability game is 50%, the reliability of the notice when the jackpot lottery value is “11”, “13”, “17”, “19” is About 50 percent.
[0079]
Therefore, the reliability of the warning sound is clearly indicated in advance, and the warning sound of the designed reliability is output, so that the player does not mistakenly recognize the warning sound when listening to the warning sound. It is possible to prevent the drop.
In this case, the movable mascot 22 is driven only when the jackpot lottery value is “7”. In this way, the reliability of the big hit when the movable mascot 22 moves becomes 100%.
[0080]
FIG. 11 is a flowchart of the big hit loss sound execution processing routine.
The big hit sound execution processing shows the specific contents of S590 in FIG.
First, the jackpot lottery value read in S510 is input (S700). Next, selection of sound data for departure corresponding to the read jackpot lottery value is performed (S710). The sound data selected here is different for the case of “11, 13, 17, 19” and for other cases. For example, in the case of “11, 13, 17, 19”, a buzzer sound of a chord is used, and for other uses, a buzzer of a short sound is used.
[0081]
After the selection of the sound data, the sound effect of the departure sound data is output (S720). The output of the sound data is performed by outputting the sound data to the sound control board 18A and causing the speaker 18 to output the actual sound.
Note that the sound effect output of the departure sound data may be output only for the case of “11, 13, 17, 19”, and may be ended without actually outputting for other cases. Further, a configuration may be adopted in which actual sound output for the case of “11, 13, 17, 19” is not performed.
[0082]
It should be noted that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment, and various embodiments can be implemented.
For example, the present invention can be applied to a slot machine capable of holding a start signal. As a slot machine that holds a start signal, a slot machine that stores a jackpot flag and provides a jackpot game at a time when a predetermined condition is satisfied corresponds to the slot machine. It should be noted that a pachinko machine is also applicable to a machine that stores a big hit flag in this way. By applying to the storage in this way, it becomes possible to enjoy the game while expecting when these will be released. Therefore, the playability of the game is improved.
[0083]
In addition, as a notice mode of the gaming machine 1, in addition to or instead of a notice using an auditory sense such as sound output or change, a tactile sense such as vibrating a handle 15 or a chair of the gaming machine 1 or blowing wind. Whatever appeals to the five senses of the human being, such as giving a notice by using the sight, giving a notice using the visual sense of the display device provided in the gaming machine 1, giving a notice with an odor such as generating an odor, etc. Things are also available.
[0084]
As a mode of the notice, in addition to or in place of the configuration in which only the gaming machine 1 is used as in the embodiment, a display device or an audio device provided on a gaming island (not shown) near the gaming machine 1 For example, it may be performed. For example, the information display device with a call button located above the gaming machine 1 may indicate that a big hit has occurred or the type of the big hit. Alternatively, a configuration may be adopted in which the in-hall broadcast is performed by notifying the hall management device. Alternatively, a configuration may be employed in which the hall staff is contacted to prepare for the jackpot processing.
[0085]
In the gaming machine 1 described above, when the gaming ball 13 wins the starting opening 25, if a winning game is actually provided by the winning, a big hit announcement is always performed, and the reliability of the announcement notification is guaranteed. There is an extremely excellent effect that the gaming machine 1 having the high gaming performance according to the design concept can be provided without reducing the performance.
[0086]
In addition, when a jackpot game is not actually provided, a missed notice can be accurately made, the reliability of the notice notice is not reduced, and it becomes possible to provide a gaming machine having the game performance as designed. It has excellent effects.
Moreover, by using a configuration in which a notice according to the value of the jackpot lottery value is provided, even if the jackpot notice is issued despite the fact that no actual jackpot occurs, the jackpot notice is immediately given by mistake. The recognition will not be held by the player.
[0087]
In addition, a jackpot lottery value which becomes a big hit with a probability of 100% (a lottery value which becomes a big hit in both a high probability game and a normal probability game), and other lottery values (a lottery value which becomes a big hit only in the case of a high probability game) ), A different jackpot notice is provided, whereby a lottery value that always becomes a big hit is identified and given a notice, thereby exhibiting a function of improving the reliability of the notice. In addition, the other jackpot notices (the jackpot notice is also performed in the case of a lottery value which is a big hit only in the case of a high probability game) are identified and performed, so that the jackpot notice with a probability of about 50% (double jackpot) Notice) is provided, and the player has an increased chance of having the expectation of a jackpot at the notice. Therefore, it is possible to improve both the reliability and the playability.
[0088]
In addition, since the notification by the movable mascot 22 is also performed in addition to the sound notification, the player can know the advance notice even in an environment where the notice sound is difficult to hear, and the movable mascot 22 that normally does not move suddenly moves. In addition, since the eyes of the mascot shine, the transmission and unexpectedness of the notice are further improved, and the playability of the game is improved.
[0089]
