If they match, “1” is substituted into jackpot algebra R1 (when power is turned on, “0” is substituted for jackpot algebra R1) and stored in parameter storage area 463M. Then, “0” is substituted into the jackpot algebra R1 and stored in the parameter storage area 463M. Therefore, the probability that the algebra V1 as the “first jackpot count value” matches the “big jackpot value” and “1” is substituted into the jackpot algebra R1 is 1/150.

As shown in FIG. 25, first, in S61, the CPU 461 executes a determination process for determining whether or not the second start port sensor 25A is valid.
In this determination process, the CPU 461 reads the gate flag from the parameter storage area 463M, and when the gate flag is “1”, that is, when the gate flag is ON, it is determined that the second start port sensor 25A is valid. On the other hand, when the gate flag is “0”, that is, when the gate flag is OFF, it is determined that the second start port sensor 25A is not valid.
If the gate flag read from the parameter storage area 463M is OFF (S61: NO), the CPU 461 ends the sub-process and returns to the main flowchart.
On the other hand, when the gate flag read from the parameter storage area 463M is ON (S61: YES), in S62, the CPU 461 turns on the gate flag for a predetermined time (about 8 seconds to about 20 in this embodiment). Second, preferably 10 seconds), and waits for the pachinko ball detection signal to be input from the second start port sensor 25A. If a pachinko ball detection signal is input from the second start port sensor 25A within the predetermined time (S62: YES), in S63, the CPU 461 determines whether or not the big hit flag (when power is turned on) from the parameter storage area 463M. "0" is substituted for the jackpot flag), and "1" is substituted for the jackpot flag, that is, the jackpot flag is turned ON and stored again in the parameter storage area 463M. Further, the CPU 461 reads the gate flag from the parameter storage area 463M, substitutes “0” for the gate flag, that is, turns off the gate flag, stores the gate flag in the parameter storage area 463M again, and stores the second start port. The sensor 25A is disabled, that is, the detection signal from the second start port sensor 25A is ignored. Thereafter, the sub-process is terminated and the process returns to the main flowchart.
On the other hand, if the pachinko ball detection signal is not input from the second start port sensor 25A within the predetermined time (S62: NO), the CPU 461 reads the jackpot flag from the parameter storage area 463M and sets it as the jackpot flag. “0” is substituted again, that is, the jackpot flag is turned OFF, and the parameter storage area 463M is stored again. Further, the CPU 461 reads the gate flag from the parameter storage area 463M, substitutes “0” for the gate flag, that is, turns off the gate flag, stores the gate flag in the parameter storage area 463M again, and stores the second start port. The sensor 25A is disabled, that is, the detection signal from the second start port sensor 25A is ignored. Thereafter, the sub-process is terminated and the process returns to the main flowchart.

Next, the sub-process of the jackpot game process (S6) will be described with reference to FIG.
As shown in FIG. 26, first, in S71, the CPU 461 reads a jackpot flag from the parameter storage area 463M and executes a determination process for determining whether or not the jackpot flag is ON, that is, “1”.
When the jackpot flag read from the parameter storage area 463M is not “1”, that is, when it is “0” (S71: NO), the CPU 461 determines that the “jackpot” has not been acquired, and The process ends and the process returns to the main flowchart.
On the other hand, when the jackpot flag read from the parameter storage area 463M is “1”, that is, when the jackpot flag is ON, it is determined that the “jackpot” has been acquired (S71: YES), and in S72, the CPU 461 Then, the open / close solenoid 36 is driven to open the open / close door 37 that closes the special winning opening 38.
Subsequently, in S73, whether or not the number of winning balls won in the big prize opening 38 has reached a predetermined number (in this example, ten) is detected by the big prize opening sensor 38A. It is determined whether or not the number of winnings has reached a predetermined number (10 in the present embodiment).
If the number of winning balls won in the special winning opening 38 has not reached the predetermined number (in this embodiment, ten), (S73: NO), the CPU 461 in S74, It is determined whether or not a predetermined time (in the case of the present embodiment, about 29 seconds to about 35 seconds, preferably about 30 seconds) has elapsed since opening 38. If the predetermined time has not elapsed since the special winning opening 38 was opened (S74: NO), the CPU 461 executes the processing subsequent to S72 again.

On the other hand, when a predetermined number (10 in the present embodiment) of winning balls has been won in the special winning opening 38 (S73: YES), or a predetermined time after the special winning opening 38 is opened. (In the case of this embodiment, it is about 29 seconds to about 35 seconds, preferably about 30 seconds.) When the time has elapsed (S74: YES), in S75, the CPU 461 closes the open / close door 37 and closes it. The winning opening 38 is closed.
In S76, the CPU 461 determines whether or not the number of times the special winning opening 38 is continuously opened has reached a predetermined maximum number of times (in the present embodiment, “16 times”). The determination process to be executed is executed. When the number of times that the special winning opening 38 is opened does not reach the predetermined maximum number of continuous times (S76: NO), the CPU 461 closes the special winning opening 38 for a predetermined time (in this embodiment, about 2 seconds.) After the elapse of time, the processing after S72 is executed again.
Thereafter, when the number of times that the big winning opening 38 is opened reaches the predetermined maximum number of continuous times (S76: YES), in S77, the CPU 461 reads the jackpot flag from the parameter storage area 463M and sets the jackpot flag. After substituting OFF, that is, “0” and storing again in the parameter storage area 463M, the sub-process is terminated and the process returns to the main flowchart.

Next, an example from the winning to the first starting port 23 by the game control process to the end of the big hit game in which the big winning port 38 is opened a predetermined number of times will be described based on the timing chart shown in FIG.

The “small hit” functions as the second big hit. Further, the CPU 461, the ROM 462, and the first jackpot counter 463A constitute a first jackpot lottery means and a privilege game grant means. Further, the CPU 461 and the ROM 462 constitute first jackpot determination means and second jackpot determination means. The jackpot symbol functions as a first jackpot symbol. Also, the small hit symbol functions as a second big hit symbol. In addition, the three rows of variation symbols of the liquid crystal display 19 of the first special symbol display device 18 function as a first variation symbol. Further, the CPU 461, the ROM 462, the jackpot symbol selection counter 463C, the small hit symbol selection counter 463D, the first selection table 71, and the second selection table 72 constitute a first jackpot symbol selection means. The CPU 461 and CPU 661 constitute first display control means and second display control means. The jackpot game corresponds to a special game state. The CPU 461 functions as a first special game control unit and a second special game control unit. Moreover, the state in which the tulip-type electric accessory 42 is opened for a predetermined time (for example, 1.5 seconds) corresponds to the privilege gaming state. Further, “per condition” functions as a third jackpot. The CPU 461, the ROM 462, and the second jackpot counter 463H constitute a second jackpot lottery means.

Therefore, in the pachinko machine 1 according to the present embodiment, the jackpot is drawn with a lottery probability of 1/150 based on the winning information to the first start port 23, and the liquid crystal display 19 of the first special symbol display device 18 is selected. After the fluctuation symbols in the three rows change, when the game stops at any jackpot symbol from “000” to “999”, the gate 25 becomes valid for a predetermined time (for example, 10 seconds). When a pachinko ball passes through the gate 25 while the gate 25 is valid, the special winning opening 38 that is normally closed by the open / close door 37 is opened a predetermined number of times, and the special winning opening 38 is easily opened. The pachinko ball is ready for winning (special gaming state).
Also, after the lottery probability of 1/150 based on the winning information to the first start port 23 is drawn, and the fluctuation symbols of the three columns of the liquid crystal display 19 of the first special symbol display device 18 are changed, When stopping at any one of “009”, “001” to “998”, “990”, the tulip-type electric accessory 42 of the sorting and winning device 24 is set for a predetermined time (for example, 1 .5 seconds) (reward gaming state). The lottery probability is 1/10 based on the winning information for the tulip-type electric accessory 42, and after the fluctuation symbol of the liquid crystal display 30 of the second special symbol display device 28 is changed, “3 In the case of stopping at the symbol per condition of “7” or “7”, the gate 25 becomes valid for a predetermined time (for example, 10 seconds). When a pachinko ball passes through the gate 25 while the gate 25 is valid, the special winning opening 38 that is normally closed by the open / close door 37 is opened a predetermined number of times, and the special winning opening 38 is easily opened. The pachinko ball is ready for winning (special gaming state).

As a result, the gate 25 becomes effective for a predetermined time when the three rows of the changing symbols of the liquid crystal display 19 of the first special symbol display device 18 change and then the jackpot symbol is stopped and displayed. When the pachinko ball passes, the grand prize opening 38 is opened a predetermined number of times, and the pachinko ball easily wins from the big prize opening 38, so that the player can easily acquire many prize balls in a short time. It is possible to increase the player's expectation for acquiring a predetermined number of times of opening (special gaming state) of the special winning opening 38 notified by the stoppage of the jackpot symbol.
In addition, after the three rows of changing symbols on the liquid crystal display 19 of the first special symbol display device 18 change, the tulip-type electric accessory 42 is displayed for a predetermined time (for example, 1.5 seconds) after being stopped and displayed with a small hitting symbol. ) Opened. And when this tulip-type electric accessory 42 is won, after the fluctuation symbol of the liquid crystal display 30 of the second special symbol display device 28 further fluctuates, any one condition of “3” and “7” When the winning symbol is stopped and displayed, the gate 25 is valid for a predetermined time, and when a pachinko ball passes through the valid gate 25, the grand prize opening 38 is opened a predetermined number of times and the grand prize opening 38 is opened. Since the pachinko ball easily wins, it becomes possible for the player to easily acquire a lot of prize balls in a short time, and the tulip-type electric accessory 42 that is notified by the stop of the small hitting symbol (reward game) State), and the player's expectation for obtaining a predetermined number of times of opening (special game state) of the special winning opening 38 notified by the stop of the symbol per condition, can increase the interest. Kill.

For this reason, the player can acquire a predetermined number of times of opening the special winning opening 38 (special gaming state) after the jackpot is drawn based on the winning to the first starting opening 23. After winning the lottery based on the lottery process and winning to the 1 start port 23, the tulip-type electric accessory 42 is released for a predetermined time (privilege gaming state), and then when the winning per condition is drawn. The gate 25 is activated by two types of lottery processing, which is a second lottery processing that enables a predetermined number of times the special winning opening 38 is opened (special game state), and during this time, When a pachinko ball passes, a predetermined number of times of opening the special winning opening 38 (special game state) can be obtained, so the pachinko game can be diversified to increase the interest of the player. To the game It is possible to attract clause.
Further, after the fluctuation symbols of the three columns of the liquid crystal display 19 of the first special symbol display device 18 are changed, the symbols of the liquid crystal display 30 of the second special symbol display device 28 are changed. Later, when the game stops with a symbol per condition, it is necessary to fire the game ball so that the pachinko ball passes through the gate 25 within a predetermined time, so that the skill of the player can be utilized, and the pachinko game Can be further increased.
Further, after the fluctuation symbols of the three columns of the liquid crystal display 19 of the first special symbol display device 18 are changed, the symbols of the liquid crystal display 30 of the second special symbol display device 28 are changed. After that, when stopping at the symbol per condition, the gate 25 becomes valid for a predetermined time, and when the pachinko ball passes through this effective gate 25, it is only necessary to open the grand prize opening 38 a predetermined number of times. Two types of games can be easily realized with the control configuration, and a highly reliable game can be provided.

Further, after the fluctuation symbol of the liquid crystal display 30 of the second special symbol display device 28 has changed, it does not stop at the symbol per condition, that is, the condition loss symbol (for example, “1”, “2”, etc.). In this case, the winning ball held in the distribution winning device 24 is guided to the discharge port 45 by driving the second solenoid 44C and attracting the discharge port shutter 44 to the back side, 25 is invalidated, and the special winning opening 38 is closed. Therefore, when the fluctuation symbol of the liquid crystal display 30 does not stop at the symbol per condition, the special winning opening 38 is opened a predetermined number of times (special game state). ) Is not given reliably, and it is possible to increase the player's expectation for the symbols per condition during the variation of the variation symbols of the liquid crystal display 30. In addition, by adjusting the lottery probability of the symbol per condition, the lottery probability of giving the special winning opening 38 a predetermined number of times (special game state) can be accurately controlled. The profit balance can be easily achieved.
In addition, when the three symbols of the changing symbols of the liquid crystal display 19 of the first special symbol display device 18 change and then stop display with the jackpot symbol, the gate 25 is effective only for a predetermined time (for example, 10 seconds). However, if the pachinko ball does not pass through this effective gate 25, the gate 25 is invalidated and the large winning opening 38 is closed, so that the winning probability to this gate 25 is adjusted by nail adjustment or the like. By adjusting, it is possible to more accurately control the probability of giving the special winning opening 38 a predetermined number of times (special gaming state), so that the profit balance between the player and the game store can be easily achieved. .
Furthermore, the gate 25 is configured by a gate through which pachinko balls pass from the top to the bottom, and is disposed above the big winning opening 38, so that when a big win or a conditional big win is drawn, the player By operating the operation handle 10 so that the game ball enters the effective gate 25, the game ball can be operated at the same time so that the game ball wins the big prize opening 38, and the skill of the player can be further utilized. Can increase the interest of pachinko games.
