Description

  The present invention is provided with a plurality of types of start winning holes, and based on the winning of a game ball to the winning hole, the symbols are changed and stopped, or the number of winning balls is stored, and the stopped and displayed symbols are specified symbols. The present invention relates to a pachinko machine that opens and closes a movable member.

As a form of a conventional general pachinko machine, a movable prize apparatus having a movable member that opens and closes and guides a game ball by satisfying a predetermined condition at a substantially central portion of the game area (so-called second game machine) There is what was said to be a seed pachinko machine).
In this form of pachinko machine, a plurality of types of start winning openings are provided in the game area to open and close the movable member a different predetermined number of times based on the winning of the game ball, and the game ball can move freely during the opening operation of the movable member. When the player jumps into the device and wins a specific winning opening (generally referred to as a V winning opening) provided in the movable winning device, the movable member repeatedly opens and closes and the player has many games. A gaming state in which a ball can be acquired, a so-called jackpot gaming state occurs.

  However, in such a pachinko machine, even if the game ball wins the start winning opening while the movable member performs the opening / closing operation based on the winning of the game ball to the start winning opening, Was invalidated, and there was an unreasonable state for the player that the movable member was not opened and closed for that prize. For example, a plurality of types of start winning openings, that is, a start winning opening (first start winning opening) that opens and closes the movable member only once based on the winning of a game ball, and a start winning opening that performs two opening / closing operations ( In a pachinko machine having a second starting prize opening), after a game ball has won a prize at the first starting prize opening, a game ball is moved to the second starting prize opening while the movable member is being opened and closed based on the prize. When the player wins, the winning at the second starting winning opening is invalidated, and the game ball is won at the starting winning opening for performing the opening / closing operation twice, but the opening / closing operation of the movable member for the winning is not performed. An unreasonable state occurs for the player. In addition, when a game ball jumps into the movable winning device based on the opening / closing operation of the movable member, the next game ball starts and wins until it is determined whether or not the jumped game ball has won a specific winning opening. An unreasonable state occurs for a player that the winning is invalidated even if winning in the mouth, and it is difficult to determine the processing of the game ball that entered the movable winning device during the invalid period In some cases, the opening and closing operation of the movable member is completed. This operation is the same during the period when the jackpot gaming state is occurring, and even if the game ball wins the start winning opening during the jackpot game, the movable member is not opened or closed in response to the winning.

  As a pachinko machine capable of avoiding such a state, Patent Document 1 shown below is beneficial to a player in which a movable member opens an operation based on a winning of a game ball to a starting chucker (starting winning opening). If a special game (big hit game) occurs and the movable member repeatedly opens and closes when the hit ball enters the starting chucker during the state, the winning chucker's winning is memorized and the profit state ends. After that, a pachinko machine is disclosed that shifts to the next profit again.

  Further, in Patent Document 2 shown below, when a game ball wins a starting opening, the number of winnings is stored as starting memory, and a movable member is operated based on the starting memory, and a special game A configuration is disclosed in which the number of start prizes is stored and the movable member is operated based on the start memory after the special game is completed (the configuration is substantially the same as the configuration of Patent Document 1 above). There is disclosed a configuration in which a variable display device including a display is provided, and an upper limit value of the number of start winnings that can be stored is determined depending on the type of symbols to be stopped in the variable display device.

  In Patent Document 3 shown below, in a pachinko machine having a movable winning device having a movable member that opens and closes to guide a game ball, a variable display is provided, and the display mode stopped by the variable display is specified. When in the display mode, a pachinko machine in which the movable member performs a predetermined number of opening / closing operations is disclosed. When the hit ball enters the start winning opening, the variable display starts variable display, and when the display mode at the time of stop is a predetermined display mode, there is a specific game state (big hit game state) in which the movable member is repeatedly opened and closed. appear.

  In Patent Document 4 shown below, in a pachinko machine having a movable winning device having a movable member that opens and closes to guide a game ball, variable display means is provided, and when the pachinko ball wins a start winning opening, variable display means A configuration in which a jackpot gaming state in which a movable member is repeatedly opened and closed over a certain period of time when a symbol pattern at a stop is a jackpot is displayed (the configuration is substantially the same as the configuration of Patent Document 3 above). In addition to the above, there is disclosed a configuration in which means for holding the number of winning pachinko balls in the starting winning opening is provided.

The game balls that enter the movable winning device 5 and are detected by the detection switches 7a and 7b flow down through the movable winning device 5 and win either the specific winning port 9 or the normal winning ports 10a and 10b.

  A predetermined predetermined winning ball is paid out to the gaming balls that have won the normal winning openings 10a, 10b. On the other hand, when a game ball wins the specific winning opening 9, a predetermined number of predetermined pay balls are paid out, and the movable members 6a and 6b are repeatedly opened and closed, so that a large number of game balls can be played in a short time. A so-called jackpot gaming state occurs that can be acquired. As for the contents of the big hit game, a so-called round of 18 open / close operations of the movable members 6a and 6b is started based on the winning of the game ball to the specific winning opening 9. However, if a game ball that has entered the movable prize-winning device 5 during this continuous opening / closing operation wins the specific prize opening 9 again, the round will end even if the number of opening / closing operations has not reached 18 times. Round begins. The next round is also started when the number of balls that have entered the movable winning device 5 during the continuous opening and closing operation reaches ten. Also, the number of rounds can be updated up to a maximum of 10 rounds, but if the game ball does not win again in the specific winning opening 9 during 18 consecutive opening and closing operations, the jackpot game ends in that round. The other jackpot game contents are the same as the game contents of the conventional so-called second-class pachinko machine equipped with a blade accessory.

  Detection switches 9 ′, 10 a ′, and 10 b ′ for detecting a winning game ball are provided at the specific winning port 9 and the normal winning ports 10 a and 10 b, respectively. In this embodiment, the detection switch 9 ′ is also referred to as a V switch, and the detection switches 10a ′ and 10b ′ are also referred to as normal winning opening switches. Each of these detection switches detects the winning of a game ball at each winning opening, and the detection signal is sent to the CPU as the control means of the main control board to win the specific winning opening 9 and the normal winning openings 10a, 10b. The prize ball for is controlled to be paid out. Further, as described above, since the number of game balls that have jumped into the movable winning device 5 can be detected by the detection switches 7a and 7b, the signals detected by the detection switches 9 ′, 10a ′, and 10b ′ are main-controlled. The number of game balls sent to the CPU of the board and recognized in the specific winning port 9 and the normal winning ports 10a and 10b are recognized, and the number of game balls jumped into the movable winning device 5 and the winning ports 9, 10a and 10b are won. It is possible to confirm the match / mismatch with the number of game balls played.

  With this configuration, when a player performs an act of winning a game ball to the specific winning opening 9 by an illegal game, a mismatch between the number of game balls is confirmed. be able to. As a means for preventing an illegal game by a player, a method of comparing the number of game balls jumped into the movable prize apparatus 5 and the number of game balls discharged from the movable prize apparatus 5 may be used. As shown in FIG. 2, a discharge switch 11 is provided at the lower part of the movable winning device 5 (the front portion of the discharge port not shown) to detect a game ball discharged from the movable winning device 5, and the detection signal is sent to the main control board.

  When the game ball launched from the launching device flows down the game area 3 and wins the starting winning port 14a or 14b, the symbol display device 12a provided corresponding to the type of the starting winning port 14a, 14b changes the symbol. Starts the display operation. Further, based on the winning of the start winning opening 14a or 14b, a lottery of the variation display result for the winning is performed by the CPU as the control means of the main control board. After a variable display operation for a predetermined time, a symbol corresponding to the lottery result is stopped and displayed on the symbol display device 12a. When the symbol corresponding to the lottery result is a predetermined winning symbol, the movable members 6a and 6b are opened and closed once for the winning winning opening 14a and 14b. Operation starts. On the other hand, when the symbol corresponding to the lottery result is a predetermined symbol that is not a predetermined winning symbol, the opening / closing operation of the movable members 6a and 6b is not performed. If a game ball wins in the start winning opening 14a or the start winning opening 14b until a game ball wins in the start winning opening 14a or 14b and a series of these game operations is completed, the symbol display device 12a for that win is displayed. The right of the symbol variation display operation is stored in the storage means 13a. When a game ball wins a single ball until the end of a series of game operations, one LED as a storage means is lit and displayed, and when a plurality of balls are won, LEDs are lit and displayed for the number of balls. .

  When the game ball launched from the launching device wins the start winning opening 15, the symbol display device 12b provided corresponding to the type of the starting winning opening 15 starts a variable display operation of the symbols. Further, based on a winning at the start winning opening 15, a lottery of a variation display result for the winning is performed by a CPU as a control means of the main control board. After a variable display operation for a predetermined time, a symbol corresponding to the lottery result is stopped and displayed on the symbol display device 12b. When the symbol corresponding to the lottery result is a predetermined winning symbol, the opening / closing operation of the movable members 6a and 6b that is predetermined twice with respect to the winning at the start winning opening 15 is performed. Be started. On the other hand, when the symbol corresponding to the lottery result is a predetermined symbol that is not a predetermined winning symbol, the opening / closing operation of the movable members 6a and 6b is not performed. If a game ball wins in the start winning opening 15 until a game ball wins in the start winning opening 15 and these series of game operations are finished, the symbol change display operation of the symbol display device 12b for the win is performed. The right is stored in the storage unit 13b. The number of LEDs that are turned on as the storage means is the same as that when winning the winning winning openings 14a and 14b.

  Here, until the series of game operations for the winning of game balls to the start winning holes 14a, 14b, and 15 is completed, if the symbol corresponding to the lottery result is out of the symbol, the game ball is the starting winning port 14a. , 14b, and 15 until the change symbols on the symbol display devices 12a and 12b are stopped and displayed. If the symbol corresponding to the lottery result is a winning symbol, a game ball Is the period from when the winning winning openings 14a, 14b and 15 are won until the opening and closing operation of the movable members 6a and 6b is ended after the variable symbols on the symbol display devices 12a and 12b are stopped and displayed. Say. Furthermore, when the opening / closing operation of the movable members 6a, 6b ends, the movable members 6a, 6b perform the opening / closing operation a predetermined number of times determined by the type of the start winning opening in the order of the opening operation and the closing operation. The time when the operation is completed.

  However, as described above, in the form in which the movable display device 5 includes the detection switches 9 ′, 10a ′, and 10b ′, the number of game balls that have jumped into the movable winning device 5 and the winning ports 9, 10a, and 10b. It may be said that it is the time when the match / mismatch with the number of game balls won is confirmed. That is, the opening / closing operation of the movable members 6a, 6b is performed, and the opening / closing operation of the movable members 6a, 6b is completed when the detection switch 7a, 7b detects a game ball that has jumped into the movable winning device 5. On the other hand, in the pachinko machine in which the game ball that has entered is still moving in the movable prize-winning device 5 and stays in the movable prize-winning device 5 for a long period of time, the winning balls 9, 10a, 10b have been won. The game ball is detected by the detection switches 9 ′, 10a ′, 10b ′, and the time when the match / mismatch between the number of jumps and the detected number is confirmed is the end time of the opening / closing operation of the movable members 6a, 6b. To do.

  Further, in the embodiment in which the movable winning device 5 includes the discharge switch 11, the game balls discharged from the movable winning device 5 are detected by the discharge switch 11, and the number of game balls jumped into the movable winning device 5 and the movable winning a prize. It may be said that it is the time when the match / mismatch with the number of game balls discharged from the device 5 has been confirmed. That is, the opening / closing operation of the movable members 6a, 6b is performed, and the opening / closing operation of the movable members 6a, 6b is completed when the detection switch 7a, 7b detects a game ball that has jumped into the movable winning device 5. However, when the game ball that has jumped in is still moving in the movable winning device 5 and is not discharged from the movable winning device 5, it is detected by the discharge switch 11 that the game ball has been discharged from the movable winning device 5. This point is the end point of the opening / closing operation of the movable members 6a and 6b.

  Further, when no right of the symbol variation display operation is stored in the storage means 13a, 13b at the time when the game ball has won the start winning openings 14a, 14b, and 15, the right of the symbol variation display operation for the winning is If a series of game operations are not performed at the time when the game ball is won, the game is immediately executed without being stored in the storage means 13a, 13b. On the other hand, when a series of game operations are performed at the time when a game ball is won, it is stored in the storage means 13a and 13b until the series of game operations is completed. On the other hand, when the right of the symbol variation display operation is already stored in the storage means 13a and 13b at the time when the game ball wins the start winning opening 14a, 14b and 15, it is performed at that time. After a series of gaming operations are completed, a series of gaming operations corresponding to the right of the already stored symbol variation display operation is stored in the storage means 13a or the storage means 13b first regardless of the type of the start winning opening. It is performed sequentially from the first. Accordingly, the right of the symbol variation display operation for the newly (later) winning game ball is stored in the storage means 13a and 13b until the last stored symbol variation display operation right ends the series of game operations.

  In other words, in this embodiment, regardless of the type of the start winning opening, it is sequentially executed from the variable display operation of the symbols for the game balls previously won in time series, and a series of either one of the symbol display devices 12a and 12b. If a game operation is being performed, the other symbol display device 12b, 12a will continue to display the symbol even if a game ball wins at the start winning opening corresponding to that symbol display device until the game operation ends. The change display, stop display, or opening / closing operation of the movable members 6a, 6b is not performed, and the right of the symbol change display operation for the winning is stored in the storage means 13a, 13b.

However, the content of the game control relating to this point is, for example, in the following form in which the symbol variable display operation is performed in parallel with the symbol display device provided corresponding to each type of the start winning opening. Also good.
When the game ball launched from the launching device flows down the game area 3 and wins the start winning opening 14a, 14b or the starting winning opening 15, it is provided corresponding to the type of the start winning opening 14a, 14b or the starting winning opening 15. When the symbol variation display operation is started on the symbol display device 12a or 12b, and the symbol that is stopped and displayed is a predetermined predetermined symbol, the opening / closing operation of the movable members 6a and 6b is performed a predetermined number of times. The control that is performed only is the same as in the above embodiment. Further, the same type of game ball is won in the start winning opening 14a, 14b or the start winning opening 15 until a series of game operations are ended in the symbol display device 12a or 12b corresponding to the type of the starting winning opening. When the game ball wins the start winning opening 14a, 14b or the starting winning opening 15, the right of the symbol variation display operation for the win is also the same as the above-mentioned form with respect to the control that is stored in the storage means 13a or 13b.

  If no right of symbol change display operation is stored in the storage means 13a, 13b at the time when a game ball wins the start winning opening 14a, 14b, and 15, the right of symbol change display operation for the winning is game If a series of gaming operations are not performed at the time when the ball is won, it is immediately executed without being stored in the storage means 13a, 13b. In addition, even when a series of gaming operations are being performed at the time when the game ball is won, the series of gaming operations is for winning at a type of starting winning opening different from the winning starting winning opening. In some cases, the right of the symbol variation display operation for the winning is immediately executed without being stored in the storage means.

  Specifically, even when the game ball is won at the start winning opening 15, even when the symbol change display, stop display, or opening / closing operation of the movable members 6a and 6b is performed on the symbol display device, When it is performed by the symbol display device 12a, or when the movable members 6a and 6b are opened and closed based on the winning symbol stopped and displayed on the symbol display device 12a, that is, the start winning port 14a, In the case of a series of game operations based on winning of game balls to 14b, the right of the symbol variation display operation for winning to the start winning port 15 is immediately executed without being stored in the storage means 13b, and the symbol display device 12b. The symbol change display is started. However, in this case, the symbol variation display operation of the symbol display device 12b does not end earlier than a series of game operations based on the winning of the game ball to the start winning opening 14a, 14b previously performed, When the symbol stopped and displayed on the symbol display device 12a is out of the symbol, after the symbol stop display operation is finished, when the symbol stopped and displayed on the symbol display device 12a is a winning symbol, the movable members 6a and 6b After the opening / closing operation is finished, the variable display is finished.

  This is because the right of the symbol variation display operation is stored in the storage means 13a provided corresponding to the start winning port 14a, 14b of a different type from the starting winning port 15 when the game ball is won in the starting winning port 15. The same applies to the case where the game is already stored, and unless the game operation based on the winning of the game ball to the start winning opening 15 is performed by the symbol display device 12a or the movable members 6a and 6b, the starting winning opening 15 The right of the symbol variation display operation for winning a prize is immediately executed without being stored in the storage means 13b, and symbol variation display is started on the symbol display device 12b.

  In addition, in the state where any series of game operations are not performed, when a game ball wins simultaneously at the start winning opening 14a or 14b and the starting winning opening 15, it corresponds to each start winning opening. The symbol change display operation is started on the provided symbol display devices 12a and 12b, but a series of game operations based on winning in the start winning opening 15 are executed with priority. As a result, the symbol variation display operation of the symbol display device 12a does not end earlier than a series of game operations based on the winning of the game ball to the start winning opening 15, and the symbol displayed stopped on the symbol display device 12b. When the symbol is off and the symbol stop display operation is completed, when the symbol stopped and displayed on the symbol display device 12b is a winning symbol, the variable display is displayed after the opening / closing operation of the movable members 6a and 6b is completed. finish.

  On the other hand, when the right of the symbol variation display operation is already stored in the storage means 13a and 13b at the time when the game ball wins the start winning opening 14a, 14b and 15, it is performed at that time. After a series of gaming operations are completed, a series of gaming operations for the right of the already stored symbol variation display operation are stored in the storage means 13a or the storage means 13b for each type of start winning opening. It is done sequentially. Accordingly, the right of the symbol variation display operation for the newly won (later) game ball is stored in the storage means 13a and 13b, respectively, until the last stored symbol variation display operation right ends the series of game operations. .

  The right of the symbol variation display operation for the winning of game balls to the start winning ports 14a, 14b, and 15 is stored in the storage means 13a, 13b even during the jackpot game. While the big hit game state continues, even if a game ball wins the start winning opening 14a, 14b and 15, the symbol change display operation for the win is not immediately performed. The right of the symbol variation display operation for the game balls won in the start winning ports 14a, 14b and 15 during the jackpot game is all stored in the storage means. In this case, the storage of the right is stored in the storage means corresponding to the type of the start winning opening that has won. That is, when winning at the start winning opening 14a, 14b, the right is stored in the storage means 13a, and when winning at the starting winning opening 15, it is stored in the storage means 13b. And the right of the stored symbol variation display operation is sequentially executed from the right for the winning of the game ball first stored in the storage means 13a, 13b after the end of the jackpot game, the symbol variation display and stop display, The movable member is opened and closed.

  Note that the right of the symbol variation display operation stored in each of the storage means 13a and 13b when the jackpot game is generated is carried over as it is. Accordingly, the right of the symbol change display operation for the game ball that has won the start winning opening 14a, 14b and 15 during the jackpot game is added to the stored number of rights stored before the jackpot game is generated and stored. Go. After the jackpot game ends, the rights stored before the jackpot game, which is the previously stored right, is sequentially executed, and then the rights stored during the jackpot game are executed.

  However, when the upper limit number that can be stored in the storage means is determined, the winning after the number of winning balls to the start winning openings 14a, 14b and 15 reaches the upper limit number is invalidated. . Therefore, for example, in the case of the storage means 13a, 13b shown in FIG. 1, when four game balls are won in the start winning opening 14a, 14b or the starting winning opening 15 during the big hit game, the storage means 13a or the storage means The number of memories 13b reaches the upper limit, and even if more game balls win, the right of the symbol variation display operation for that win is not stored.

  Therefore, as a means for preventing the invalidation of the right of such symbol variation display operation, it is set so as not to determine the upper limit number that can be stored in the storage means, and the number of right storages for winning to the start winning opening is a number. The storage means 13a and 13b may be configured by display means that can display the information. Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 1, the storage means is configured by four LEDs having a predetermined upper limit number that can be stored, and all the game balls that have won the start winning holes 14a, 14b, and 15 are described above. As described above, the CPU of the main control board performs lottery of the variable display result for the winning, and when the number of right storage reaches the upper limit, the memory of the right for the subsequent winning is stored by lottery of the variable display result for the winning. When winning, the lottery of the variation display result in the right that has already been stored is replaced with the one that is out of storage, and when the lottery of the variation display result for that prize is out of date, the symbol variation for that prize is changed The right of display operation may be invalidated.

  Further, in FIG. 1, a game area 3 is provided with a general winning opening 16 through which a predetermined number of prize balls are paid out based on winning of game balls, and a ball from which prize balls are paid out below the game board 2. A dish 17 is provided. In addition, although not shown in the drawing, below the ball tray 17, as in the case of a normal pachinko machine, the game ball is started to be fired from the launching device by a rotation operation, and the game ball according to the rotation operation amount. A handle grip is provided that can adjust the firing strength.

Next, electrical control will be described with reference to the block diagram shown in FIG.
The control system of the pachinko machine 1 is configured with the main control board 20 as the center, and the sub control board 21 and the prize ball control board 22 are respectively decorated based on command signals transmitted from the main control board 20. Indicator light control and sound effect device control are performed. Each of these control boards is disposed on the back side of the pachinko machine 1.

  The main control board 20 is composed of an electronic circuit centered on a one-chip microcomputer (CPU) 25 incorporating a ROM 26 and a RAM 27. The ROM 26 stores a program related to the pachinko game, that is, data of an operation program of the microcomputer 25. The RAM 27 is provided with a work area for storing data relating to pachinko games. The microcomputer 25 as the control means controls the pachinko game while writing or reading necessary data in the RAM 27 according to the operation program of the ROM 26. The main control board 20 is provided with other control boards, various display devices, various storage means, solenoids, various switches, and input / output ports 28 and 29 for inputting and outputting signals to and from the microcomputer 25. It has been.

  The input port 28 of the main control board 20 detects the winning of the game ball and causes the symbol display device 12a for start 1 to start the symbol variation display operation. A start port switch 30 is connected. In addition, a second start port switch 31 provided in the start winning port 15 is connected to detect the winning of the game ball and cause the start 2 symbol display device 12b to start the symbol variation display operation. In addition, detection switches 7 a and 7 b provided in the movable winning device 5 for detecting the number of game balls that have entered the movable winning device 5 are connected. In addition, a special winning opening 9 in the movable winning device 5 is provided in the movable winning device 5 for detecting the passing of the game ball and starting the jackpot game, and for detecting the passing of the game ball during the big hit game and continuing the big hit round. Connected V switch 9 '. Also, normal winning port switches 10a ′ and 10b ′ are connected to the normal winning ports 10a and 10b in the movable winning device 5 for detecting the winning of game balls. Furthermore, a discharge switch 11 provided in the movable winning device 5 and detecting a game ball discharged from the movable winning device 5 is connected.

  Detection signals from these switches are input to the microcomputer 25 via the input port 28. The number of game balls won in the start winning ports 14a, 14b and 15 detected by the first start port switch 30 and the second start port switch 31, that is, the right of the symbol variation display operation for winning is stored in the RAM 27. It is memorize | stored in the memory area corresponding to each kind of start winning opening provided. Also, the number of balls thrown into the movable winning device 5 detected by the detection switches 7a and 7b, the number of winning balls to the specific winning port 9 detected by the V switch 9 ′, and the normal winning ports 10a ′ and 10b ′ are detected. The number of winning balls to the normal winning openings 10 a and 10 b or the number of discharged balls from the movable winning device 5 detected by the discharging switch 11 is also stored in each area provided in the RAM 27.

  As the game balls are detected by the first and second start winning port switches 30 and 31, the microcomputer 25 of the main control board 20 detects the start 1 symbol display device 12a and the start 2 symbol display device for the winning. The random number lottery of the symbol variation display result at 12b is performed, and the lottery result is also the winning ball of the game ball to the start winning ports 14a, 14b and 15 detected by the first and second start port switches 30, 31. The number is stored in the RAM 27 corresponding to the number.

  The sub control board 21 and the prize ball control board 22 are connected to the output port 29 of the main control board 20, and command signals for controlling the control boards 21 and 22 are sent from the microcomputer 25 through the output port 29. Sent. When the passage of the game ball is detected by each switch connected to the input port 28 and the detection signal is input to the microcomputer 25, the decoration indicator lamp 40 is turned on from the microcomputer 25 to the sub-control board 21. Alternatively, a command signal for displaying blinking and a command signal for operating the sound effect device 41 are transmitted. Further, when the passing of the game ball is detected by the first and second starting winning opening switches 30, 31 or the detection switches 7a, 7b, the microcomputer 25 transfers the winning ball to the winning ball control board 22, and the winning ball device 42 receives the winning ball. A command signal for performing the payout process is transmitted.

  On the sub-control board 21, a one-chip microcomputer (CPU) 45 incorporating a ROM 46 and a RAM 47 is mounted. The microcomputer 45 controls the decoration indicator lamp 40 and the sound effect device 41 while writing or reading necessary data to the RAM 47 in accordance with an operation program stored in the ROM 46 based on a command signal from the microcomputer 25. . A one-chip microcomputer (CPU) 55 incorporating a ROM 56 and a RAM 57 is mounted on the prize ball control board 22. The microcomputer 55 controls the prize ball device 42 while writing or reading necessary data in the RAM 57 in accordance with an operation program stored in the ROM 56 based on a command signal from the microcomputer 25.

  In addition, the output port 29 of the main control board 20 has a symbol display device for start 1 12a and a symbol display device for start 2 for displaying a variation of symbols based on winning of game balls to the start winning ports 14a, 14b and 15. 12b is connected. In addition, there are a start 1 symbol operation storage means 13a and a start 2 symbol operation storage means 13b for storing the number of winning balls of the game balls to the start winning openings 14a, 14b and 15, that is, the right of the symbol variation display operation. It is connected. Furthermore, a movable member solenoid 43 for opening and closing the movable members 6a and 6b is connected.

  When the winning of the game ball is detected by the first start port switch 30 and the detection signal is sent to the microcomputer 25, the variation display of the symbol is displayed on the symbol display device 12a for starting 1 by the control of the microcomputer 25 as the control means. Operation starts. The random number lottery of the symbol variation display result on the start 1 symbol display device 12a for the winning is performed by the microcomputer 25, and the symbol variation display for a predetermined time is performed on the start 1 symbol display device 12a. After that, the symbol corresponding to the random number lottery result is stopped and displayed on the start 1 symbol display device 12a. Then, when the random number lottery result, that is, when the symbol displayed in a stopped state is a predetermined symbol, the opening and closing of the movable members 6a and 6b a predetermined number of times determined corresponding to the start winning ports 14a and 14b. The movable member solenoid 43 is controlled by the microcomputer 25 so as to operate.

  Until the above-described symbol variation display operation is completed, that is, after the symbol variation display for a predetermined time, until the selected symbol is stopped, or the symbol that is stopped and displayed is predetermined. In the case of a specific winning symbol, the first start port switch 30 further wins a game ball between the end of the symbol variation display operation and the end of the opening / closing operation of the movable members 6a, 6b. If it is detected, the right of the symbol variation display for the winning is controlled by the microcomputer 25 so as to be stored in the start 1 symbol operation storage means 13a. The right of the symbol display operation with respect to the memorized winning is won after the execution of the symbol display operation right for the game ball which has won the start winning opening 14a, 14b before, that is, before the starting winning opening 14a, 14b. After the symbol variation display operation for the game ball is completed, or when the stop symbol is a specific predetermined symbol, the symbol variation display operation is terminated, and a predetermined number of opening / closing operations of the movable members 6a and 6b are performed. It is executed after finishing. The execution of the rights to the game balls that have won the start winning ports 14a and 14b before that time is sequentially executed from the winning of the first stored game balls.

  A series of these controls by the microcomputer 25 is the same when a winning of a game ball is detected by the second start port switch 31, and a symbol variation display operation is started on the start 2 symbol display device 12b. The random number lottery of the symbol variation display result on the start 2 symbol display device 12b for the winning is performed, and after the symbol variation display for a predetermined time, the symbol corresponding to the random number lottery result is stopped and displayed on the symbol display device 12b for the start 2 Is done. The movable member solenoid 43 is controlled when the symbol that has been stopped and displayed is a specific predetermined symbol, and the movable member 6a, 6b of the predetermined number of times determined corresponding to the start winning port 15 is controlled. Opening and closing operations are performed. Until the symbol variation display operation is completed or when the stop symbol is a predetermined predetermined symbol, the opening and closing operation of the movable members 6a and 6b is performed a predetermined number of times after the symbol variation display operation is completed. If a winning of a game ball is further detected by the second start port switch 31 until the end, the right of symbol variation display for the winning is stored in the starting 2 symbol operation storage means 13b. As described above, the microcomputer 25 is controlled. The stored right of the symbol display operation for the winning is executed after the execution of the right of the symbol display operation for the game ball previously won in the start winning opening 15.

  In this case, when the right of symbol variation display is stored in both the start 1 symbol operation storage means 13a and the start 2 symbol operation storage means 13b, regardless of the type of the start winning opening, it is time-sequentially. It is controlled by the microcomputer 25 so as to be sequentially executed from the symbol variation display operation for the game ball previously detected by the start port switch 30 or 31. That is, when a series of game operations are performed in either the start 1 symbol display device 12a or the start 2 symbol display device 12b, the other symbol display device 12b is used until the game operation ends. , 12a, symbol change display, stop display, or opening / closing operation of the movable members 6a, 6b is not performed. And the right of the stored symbol variation display operation is only for one of the corresponding symbol display device (start 1 symbol display device 12a or start 2 symbol display device 12b) in order from the right previously stored in the storage means. ) Is executed.

  However, the content of this game control may be, for example, a form in which the symbol variation display operation is performed in parallel with the symbol display device provided corresponding to each type of start winning opening. That is, when the right of symbol change display is stored in both the start 1 symbol operation storage means 13a and the start 2 symbol operation storage means 13b, the start 1 symbol display device corresponding to each storage means is stored. 12a, the symbol change display right is executed in parallel in the start 2 symbol display device 12b. In this case, priority is given to the execution of the right of the symbol variation display started first. For example, when the variation display of the symbol is performed in parallel with the symbol display device 12a for start 1 and the symbol display device 12b for start 2, and the variation display of the symbol display device 12a for start 1 is started first. The priority is given to the execution of the symbol change display right performed on the start 1 symbol display device 12a, and the symbol change display performed on the start 2 symbol display device 12b is displayed on the start 1 symbol display device 12a. It does not end earlier than the symbol variation display performed in. Accordingly, in the symbol change display operation performed on the start 2 symbol display device 12b, when the symbol stopped on the start 1 symbol display device 12a is out of the symbol, the stop display operation of the out symbol is completed. When the symbol stopped and displayed on the start 1 symbol display device 12a is a winning symbol, the operation is continued until the opening / closing operation of the movable members 6a and 6b based on the winning is completed.

  It should be noted that execution of the priority symbol display priority may be performed in accordance with the order stored in the storage means. Specifically, after the three rights are stored in the start 1 symbol operation storage means 13a (assuming the rights 1, 2, and 3 from the first winning prize), the start 2 symbol operation storage means 13b is stored. When the right (assumed to be right 4) is stored in the right, the three rights stored in the start 1 symbol operation storage means 13a are stored in the start 2 symbol operation storage means 13b. Is controlled so that the execution of the right stored in the start 2 symbol operation storage means 13b ends after the execution of the three rights stored in the start 1 symbol operation storage means 13a ends. Is done.

  That is, since the symbol variation display operation is performed in parallel with the symbol display device provided corresponding to each type of the start winning opening, the symbol variation display on the start 2 symbol display device 12b based on the right 4 is performed. The operation is performed in parallel with the symbol variable display operation on the start 1 symbol display device 12a based on the right 1, 2 or 3. However, since the rights 1, 2 and 3 are prioritized, the symbol stop display control in the start 2 symbol display device 12b based on the right 4 is the right 1 stored in the start 1 symbol operation storage means 13a. To 3 after all executions are completed. That is, the symbol change display operation on the start 2 symbol display device 12b based on the right 4 is continuously performed until the execution of the right 3 stored in the start 1 symbol operation storage means 13a is completed. When the stop display symbol on the start 1 symbol display device 12a is out of line, the stop display operation on the start 1 symbol display device 12a based on the right 3 is stopped until the stop display operation of the out symbol is completed. When the symbol is a winning symbol, the operation is performed until the opening / closing operation of the movable members 6a and 6b based on the symbol is completed.

  Further, when the movable members 6a and 6b are opened / closed, a game ball enters the movable winning device 5, and when the game ball is detected by the V switch 9 'of the specific winning port 9, the detection is made. A signal is sent to the microcomputer 25 and the microcomputer 25 recognizes the occurrence of the jackpot game. When the big hit gaming state occurs and the opening / closing operation of the movable members 6a and 6b is started, the number of game balls jumping into the movable winning device 5 is detected by the detection switches 7a and 7b. When the number of incoming balls reaches a predetermined number or when the opening / closing operation of the movable members 6a, 6b reaches a predetermined number of times, a command signal is sent from the microcomputer 25 to the movable member so as to end the opening / closing operation of the movable members 6a, 6b. It is transmitted to the solenoid 43.

  Further, when a game ball that has entered during the opening / closing operation of the movable members 6a, 6b wins the specific winning opening 9 and is detected by the V switch 9 ', the opening / closing operation of the movable members 6a, 6b is once stopped. Thereafter, a command signal for opening / closing the movable members 6a and 6b, that is, a command signal for proceeding to a new round is transmitted from the microcomputer 25 to the movable member solenoid 43 again. If the game ball wins the start winning opening 14a, 14b or 15 and is detected by the first or second start opening switch 30, 31 while the jackpot game continues, the number of winning balls is That is, a command signal for storing the right of the symbol variable display operation for winning is transmitted from the microcomputer 25 to the start 1 symbol operation storage means 13a or the start 2 symbol operation storage means 13b.

The control of game contents according to the present invention will be described with reference to the flowcharts shown in FIGS. This flowchart shows a subroutine of game processing that accompanies winning of a game ball at the start winning opening.
In step 61, it is determined whether or not a winning of a game ball has been detected at the start winning port 15 (start port 2) by the second start port switch 31. If there is a detection, the process proceeds to step 62, where the number stored in the start 2 symbol operation storage means 13b, that is, the number of stored right of the symbol variable display operation by the start 2 symbol display device 12b is the number that can be stored. It is determined whether or not the upper limit value is less than 4. On the other hand, if there is no detection in step 62, the process proceeds to step 64 as it is. If it is determined in step 62 that the stored number is less than 4, the process proceeds to step 63, where 1 is added to the stored number of the symbol 2 operation memory unit 13b for starting 2 and the LED constituting the storing unit is turned on. The number is incremented by 1 before proceeding to step 64. On the other hand, if the stored number is 4 in step 62, that is, if the upper limit value that can be stored is reached, the process proceeds to step 64 as it is. Accordingly, even if the game ball further wins the start winning opening 15 in a state where the number of memories reaches the upper limit value, the right of the variable display operation for the win becomes invalid.

  In step 64, it is determined whether or not a winning of a game ball has been detected at the starting winning ports 14a and 14b (starting port 1) by the first starting port switch 30. If it is detected, the process proceeds to step 65, where the number stored in the start 1 symbol operation storage means 13a, that is, the number of stored right of the symbol variable display operation by the start 1 symbol display device 12a is the number that can be stored. It is determined whether or not the upper limit value is less than 4. On the other hand, if there is no detection in step 64, the process proceeds to step 67 as it is. If it is determined in step 65 that the stored number is less than 4, the process proceeds to step 66, where 1 is added to the stored number of the starting 1 symbol operation storing means 13a, and the LED constituting the storing means is turned on. After incrementing the number, the routine proceeds to step 67. On the other hand, if the number of memories is 4 in step 65, that is, if the upper limit value that can be stored is reached, the process proceeds to step 67 as it is. Accordingly, even if the game ball further wins the start winning opening 14a, 14b in the state where the number of memories has reached the upper limit, the right of the variable display operation for that win becomes invalid.

  In step 67, it is determined whether or not a jackpot game is currently in operation. If the jackpot game is being played, the process proceeds to step 68 to perform the jackpot game operation process, and then proceeds to step 87 (FIG. 4) to end the subroutine process. On the other hand, if it is determined in step 67 that the game is not a big hit game, the process proceeds to step 69. In step 69, it is determined whether or not the movable members 6a and 6b are in an open / close operation, that is, the symbol change stop display symbol performed by the start 2 symbol display device 12b becomes a specific hit symbol. It is determined whether 6b is in the middle of opening / closing operation. If the movable members 6a and 6b are in the opening / closing operation, the process proceeds to step 70, and the opening / closing operation processing of the movable members 6a and 6b for the predetermined number of times for the start winning opening 15 is performed. Then, the subroutine processing is terminated. On the other hand, if it is determined in step 69 that the movable members 6a and 6b are not in the open / close operation, the process proceeds to step 71.

  In step 71, it is determined whether or not the movable members 6a and 6b are in an opening / closing operation, that is, the stop display symbol of the symbol variation performed in the symbol display device 12a for start 1 becomes a specific hit symbol and the movable member 6a, It is determined whether 6b is in the middle of opening / closing operation. If the movable members 6a and 6b are in an opening / closing operation, the process proceeds to step 72, and after performing predetermined opening / closing operation processing of the movable members 6a and 6b for the start winning ports 14a and 14b in advance, Proceeding to step 87, the subroutine processing is terminated. On the other hand, if it is determined in step 71 that the movable members 6a and 6b are not opening and closing, the process proceeds to step 73 (FIG. 4).

  In step 73, it is determined whether or not the start 2 symbol display device 12b is in a symbol variation display operation. If it is determined that the variation display operation is being performed, the process proceeds to step 74, where it is determined whether or not the symbol variation of the start 2 symbol display device 12b has been stopped. On the other hand, if it is determined in step 73 that the variable display operation is not being performed, the process proceeds to step 77. If it is determined in step 74 that the symbol variation of the start 2 symbol display device 12b has been stopped, the process proceeds to step 75, and if the stop-displayed symbol is a specific winning symbol, the start winning opening 15 starts the opening / closing operation process of the movable members 6a and 6b for a predetermined number of times, and then the process proceeds to step 87 and the subroutine process is terminated. On the other hand, when it is determined in step 74 that the symbol variation of the start 2 symbol display device 12b is not stopped, the process proceeds to step 76, and after the symbol variation display processing of the start 2 symbol display device 12b is performed. Then, the process proceeds to step 87 and the subroutine process is terminated.

  In step 77, it is determined whether or not the start 1 symbol display device 12a is in a symbol variation display operation. If it is determined that the variation display operation is being performed, the process proceeds to step 78, and it is determined whether or not the symbol variation of the start 1 symbol display device 12a has been stopped. On the other hand, if it is determined in step 77 that the variable display operation is not being performed, the process proceeds to step 81. If it is determined in step 78 that the symbol variation of the start 1 symbol display device 12a has been stopped, the process proceeds to step 79, and if the stop-displayed symbol is a specific winning symbol, the start winning opening After starting the opening / closing operation processing of the movable members 6a, 6b a predetermined number of times predetermined for 14a, 14b, the process proceeds to step 87 and the subroutine processing is ended. On the other hand, if it is determined in step 78 that the symbol variation of the start 1 symbol display device 12a is not stopped, the process proceeds to step 80, and after the symbol variation display processing of the start 1 symbol display device 12a is performed. Then, the process proceeds to step 87 and the subroutine process is terminated.

  In step 81, it is determined whether or not the right of the symbol change display operation by the start 2 symbol display device 12b is stored in the start 2 symbol operation storage means 13b. If it is determined that the right is stored, the process proceeds to step 82 where the stored number of the start 2 symbol operation storing means 13b is decremented by 1 and the number of lighting of the LEDs constituting the storing means is decreased by 1. The process further proceeds to step 83 to start the symbol variation display process of the start 2 symbol display device 12b, and then proceeds to step 87 to end the subroutine process. In this case, the symbol variation display in the start 2 symbol display device 12b is executed from the right of the symbol variation display operation first stored in the start 2 symbol operation storage means 13b. On the other hand, if it is determined in step 81 that no right is stored, the process proceeds to step 84.

  In step 84, it is determined whether or not the right of the symbol change display operation by the start 1 symbol display device 12a is stored in the start 1 symbol operation storage means 13a. If it is determined that the right is stored, the process proceeds to step 85 where the stored number of the starting 1 symbol operation storing means 13a is decremented by 1 and the number of lighting LEDs constituting the storing means is decreased by 1. The process further proceeds to step 86 to start the symbol variation display processing of the start 1 symbol display device 12a, and then proceeds to step 87 to end the subroutine processing. In this case, the symbol variation display in the start 1 symbol display device 12a is executed from the right of the symbol variation display operation stored in the start 1 symbol operation storage means 13a. On the other hand, if it is determined in step 84 that no right is stored, the process proceeds to step 87 and the subroutine processing is terminated.

  Next, according to the flowcharts shown in FIG. 5 to FIG. 10, another embodiment of the game process that accompanies winning of the game ball at the start winning opening will be described. In this embodiment, the symbol variation display of the start 2 symbol display device 12b and the symbol variation display of the start 1 symbol display device 12a can be performed in parallel. It is different.

  In step 90, it is determined whether or not a winning of a game ball has been detected at the start winning port 15 (start port 2) by the second start port switch 31. If there is a detection, the routine proceeds to step 91, where the number of memories stored in the start 2 symbol operation storage means 13b, that is, the number of memory of the right of the symbol variable display operation by the start 2 symbol display device 12b is the number that can be stored. It is determined whether or not the upper limit value is less than 4. On the other hand, if there is no detection in step 90, the process proceeds to step 93. If it is determined in step 91 that the stored number is less than 4, the process proceeds to step 92, where 1 is added to the stored number of the start 2 symbol operation storing means 13b, and the LEDs constituting the storing means are turned on. After increasing the number by one, the routine proceeds to step 93. On the other hand, when the number of memories is 4 in step 91, that is, when the upper limit value that can be stored is reached, the routine proceeds to step 93. Accordingly, even if the game ball further wins the start winning opening 15 in a state where the number of memories reaches the upper limit value, the right of the variable display operation for the win becomes invalid.

  In step 93, it is determined whether or not a winning of a game ball has been detected in the start winning ports 14a and 14b (start port 1) by the first start port switch 30. If detected, the routine proceeds to step 94, where the number of memories stored in the start 1 symbol operation storage means 13a, that is, the number of symbols stored by the start 1 symbol display device 12a is stored. It is determined whether or not the upper limit value is less than 4. On the other hand, if there is no detection in step 93, the process proceeds to step 96. If it is determined in step 94 that the stored number is less than 4, the process proceeds to step 95, in which 1 is added to the stored number in the start 1 symbol operation storing means 13a, and the LED constituting the storing means is turned on. After incrementing the number by one, the routine proceeds to step 96. On the other hand, when the number of memories is 4 in step 94, that is, when the upper limit value that can be stored is reached, the routine proceeds to step 96. Accordingly, even if the game ball further wins the start winning opening 14a, 14b in the state where the number of memories has reached the upper limit, the right of the variable display operation for that win becomes invalid.

In step 96, a subroutine (FIG. 7) of the symbol variation display process of the start 2 symbol display device 12b is executed.
In step 110 in FIG. 7, it is determined whether or not the start 2 symbol display device 12 b is performing a symbol variation display operation. If it is determined that the variable display operation is being performed, the process proceeds to step 111, and after the symbol variation display process of the start 2 symbol display device 12 b is performed, the process proceeds to step 112. On the other hand, if it is determined in step 110 that the variable display operation is not being performed, the process proceeds to step 118 (FIG. 8).

  In step 112, it is determined whether or not the start 2 symbol time update stop flag is set. Here, the start 2 symbol time update stop flag is a flag for determining whether or not to extend the symbol variation display time performed in the start 2 symbol display device 12b. The start 2 symbol time update stop flag is set when the symbol is stopped and displayed on the start 1 symbol display device 12a. The symbol change display operation on the start 1 symbol display device 12a based on the winning of the game ball to the start winning port 14a or 14b and the start 2 symbol display device 12b based on the winning of the game ball to the start winning port 15 The symbol variation display operation can be performed in parallel. However, when performed in parallel, when the symbol variation display operation on the start 1 symbol display device 12a is started first, the game ball to the start winning opening 14a or 14b including the variation display operation is displayed. A series of game operations based on winning a prize must be completed before the end of the symbol variable display operation on the start 2 symbol display device 12b.

  However, when the variable display operation time of the symbols on the start 1 symbol display device 12a and the start 2 symbol display device 12b is set to the same time, the symbols on the start 1 symbol display device 12a are displayed. Even if the variable display operation is started earlier than that of the start 2 symbol display device 12b, when the symbol stopped and displayed on the start 1 symbol display device 12a is a winning symbol, the movable member 6a, Since the opening / closing operation 6b is also performed, during the series of game operations based on the winning of the game balls to the start winning opening 14a or 14b, the symbol variation display on the start 2 symbol display device 12b is performed. There may occur a state in which the operation ends (the set variable design operation time elapses). Therefore, when the symbol is stopped and displayed on the start 1 symbol display device 12a, the start 2 symbol time update stop flag is set. When the flag is set, the start 2 symbol display device 12b Without changing the passage of time set as the symbol variation display period, the symbol variation display time actually performed is extended.

  The start 2 symbol time update stop flag is also set when a big hit game is being played. Therefore, the symbol change stop display symbol performed on the start 1 symbol display device 12a or the start 2 symbol display device 12b becomes a specific hit symbol, and a big hit gaming state in which the movable members 6a and 6b open and close is generated. In this case, the symbol change display operation based on the winning to the start winning opening 14a, 14b or 15 is started after that, that is, even during the big hit game, but the symbol stop display is not performed. The symbol variation display operation is continued until the big hit game is finished, and the symbol variation display actually performed without updating the passage of time set as the symbol variation display period in the symbol display device 12b for start 2 is performed. Extend time. In this embodiment, processing is performed so that the symbol change display operation is started even during a big hit game. However, during the big hit game, a game ball is placed at the start winning opening 14a, 14b or 15. Even if a prize is received or the right of the symbol variable display operation is stored in the start 1 symbol operation storage means 13a or the start 2 symbol operation storage means 13b, the start 1 symbol display device 12a and the start 2 symbol are displayed. Processing may be performed so as not to start the symbol variation display operation of the display device 12b.

  If it is determined in step 112 that the stop flag is not set, the process proceeds to step 113, and an update process is performed to elapse the time set as the symbol variable display period on the start 2 symbol display device 12b. Go to step 114. On the other hand, if it is determined in step 112 that the start 2 symbol time update stop flag is set, the process proceeds to step 130 (FIG. 8), and the subroutine processing of the symbol variation display process of the start 2 symbol display device 12b is completed. To do. In step 114, it is determined whether or not the time set as the symbol variable display period on the start 2 symbol display device 12b has elapsed. If it is determined that the time has elapsed, the process proceeds to step 115. move on. On the other hand, if it is determined in step 114 that the time has not elapsed, the process proceeds to step 130 and the subroutine processing is terminated.

  In step 115, the start 2 symbol display device 12b starts to stop displaying the symbols fixed by lottery, and then proceeds to step 116 to determine whether or not the stop-displayed symbol is a predetermined winning symbol. Is determined. If it is determined in step 116 that the symbol is a winning symbol, the process proceeds to step 117, and after the start 1 symbol time update stop flag is set, the process proceeds to step 130 and the subroutine processing is terminated. On the other hand, if it is determined in step 116 that the symbol is not a winning symbol (a missing symbol), the process proceeds to step 130 and the subroutine processing is terminated. The operation of the start 1 symbol time update stop flag is the same as that of the start 2 symbol time update stop flag.

  In step 118 of FIG. 8, it is determined whether or not a stop symbol is being displayed on the start 2 symbol display device 12b. If it is determined that the confirmation display is in progress, the process proceeds to step 119, and after the symbol confirmation display processing is performed on the start 2 symbol display device 12b, the process proceeds to step 120. On the other hand, if it is determined in step 118 that the confirmation display is not in progress, the process proceeds to step 127. In step 120, it is determined whether or not the start 2 symbol time update stop flag is set. If it is determined that the stop flag is not set, the process proceeds to step 121, and an update process for elapse of the time set as the symbol stop display (determined time) period of the symbol display device 12b for start 2 is performed. Go to step 122. On the other hand, if it is determined in step 120 that the start 2 symbol time update stop flag is set, the process proceeds to step 130 and the symbol variation display processing subroutine processing of the start 2 symbol display device 12b is terminated.

  In step 122, it is determined whether or not the time set as the symbol fixed display period on the start 2 symbol display device 12b has elapsed (finished). Proceed to step 123.

If it is determined that the confirmed symbol is a winning symbol, the process proceeds to step 125, where a predetermined number of predetermined opening / closing operations of the movable members 6a, 6b are started with respect to the start winning opening 15, and then step Proceeding to 130, the subroutine processing is terminated. On the other hand, if it is determined in step 124 that the confirmed symbol is not a winning symbol, the process proceeds to step 130 and the subroutine processing is terminated.

  In step 127, it is determined whether or not the right of the symbol change display operation by the start 2 symbol display device 12b is stored in the start 2 symbol operation storage means 13b. If it is determined that the number of rights stored is not zero (“0”), the routine proceeds to step 128, where the number of memories stored in the startup 2 symbol operation storage means 13b is decremented by 1, and the LEDs constituting the storage means 1 is decreased, and the process further proceeds to step 129 to start the symbol variation display process of the startup 2 symbol display device 12b, and then proceeds to step 130 to end the subroutine process. In this case, the symbol variation display in the start 2 symbol display device 12b is executed from the right of the symbol variation display operation first stored in the start 2 symbol operation storage means 13b. On the other hand, if it is determined in step 127 that the number of rights stored is zero, the process proceeds to step 130 and the subroutine processing is terminated.

When the subroutine process of the symbol fluctuation display process of the start 2 symbol display device 12b is completed, the subroutine of the symbol fluctuation display process of the symbol display apparatus 12a for start 1 in step 97 is executed.

If it is determined that the stop flag is not set, the process proceeds to step 143, and an update process is performed to elapse the time set as the symbol variable display period on the start 1 symbol display device 12a. Proceed to On the other hand, if it is determined in step 142 that the start 1 symbol time update stop flag is set, the routine proceeds to step 160 (FIG. 10) and the subroutine processing of the symbol variation display process of the start 1 symbol display device 12a is completed. To do. In step 144, it is determined whether or not the time set as the symbol variation display period on the start 1 symbol display device 12a has elapsed. If it is determined that the time has elapsed, the process proceeds to step 145. move on. On the other hand, if it is determined in step 144 that the time has not elapsed, the process proceeds to step 160 and the subroutine processing is terminated.
