Description

  The present invention relates to a ball game machine such as a pachinko game machine, and more particularly to a ball game machine provided with a production button operated by a player.

2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, ball game machines have been developed that allow a player to catch the emotional reverberation of “big hit”. For example, in Patent Document 1, symbol variation method designation data determined due to the big hit lottery is stored in a predetermined storage area as needed, and the presentation ends, and the symbol variation method designation stored next is stored. A pachinko gaming machine having a function of deleting previous symbol variation method designation data from a storage area when data is executed is disclosed. This pachinko machine is a round effect when a big hit occurs, and uses the symbol variation method data stored in the storage area to reproduce the process of the big hit, that is, the symbol variation that becomes the big hit In this way, the player is once again provided with the excitement that the game has been a big hit. In addition, the above pachinko machines will reproduce not only the symbol variation method but also the background of the symbol (for example, reach production, reach notice, jackpot notice, etc.) in order to reproduce the process that was a big hit. It has become.
Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2001-137459

  However, recent pachinko machines are equipped with a function of changing the background of the symbol due to the operation of the effect button. This function does not actually change the background unless the effect button is operated, but in the pachinko gaming machine disclosed in Patent Document 1, whether or not there is a background change caused by the operation of the effect button. Regardless of the background, the background change determined in advance is used to reproduce the process of the big hit. It was different from the background, and there was a possibility that the player could not catch the above-mentioned reverberation.

The present invention has been created in order to solve these problems in view of the above circumstances, and a big hit lottery for determining whether or not a big hit state is generated according to a winning of a game ball with respect to a starting port. A main control board that performs the control, a predetermined background image, an effect symbol display device that is superimposed on the background image and displays a combination of effect symbols as a result of the big hit lottery, and the effect symbol display device It has a production symbol display control board and a production button operated by the player, and the main control board produces a variation pattern that specifies what process the jackpot lottery results will be displayed after the jackpot lottery. Transmit to the symbol display control board, the effect symbol display control board determines how to change the background of the effect symbol based on the variation pattern, and the background change, In the ball game machine that is executed at the timing when the exit button is operated, the production symbol display control board displays a screen up to the big hit when receiving the variation pattern in which the big hit lottery result is a big hit. The big hit history recording means for recording the background including the change of the background based on the operation of the production button, and during the big hit production, the background of the screen up to the big hit based on the recorded data is displayed on the production button. And a jackpot history reproduction means for reproducing the change including the background change based on the operation. In this way, during the big hit production, the background of the screen up to the big hit can be reproduced, including the background change based on the operation of the production button, so the actual background change and the background change to be reproduced Can be avoided, and as a result, the background of the screen up to the big hit can be reproduced as it is, and the player can be put into the finish.
In addition, in accordance with the winning of the game ball to the start opening, a main control board for performing a big hit lottery to determine whether or not to generate a big hit state, a predetermined background image, and an image overlaid on the background image, As a result, an effect symbol display device that displays a combination of effect symbols, an effect symbol display control board that controls the effect symbol display device, and an effect button that is operated by the player, the main control board is a big hit After the lottery, a variation pattern is sent to the production symbol display control board that specifies the process through which the lottery lottery results are displayed, and the production symbol display control board changes the background of the production symbol. Is determined based on the variation pattern, and the background change is executed at the timing when the effect button is operated. When the pattern display control board receives a variation pattern in which the result of the big hit lottery is a big hit, it receives a big hit history recording means for recording the background of the screen up to the big hit and a fluctuation pattern in which the result of the big hit lottery is a big hit The operation timing storage means for storing the operation timing of the effect button, and during the jackpot effect, the background of the screen up to the big hit based on the recording data and the operation timing data is based on the operation of the effect button. And a jackpot history reproduction means for reproducing including a change in the background. In this way, during the big hit production, the background of the screen up to the big hit can be reproduced, including the background change based on the operation of the production button, so the actual background change and the background change to be reproduced Can be avoided, and as a result, the background of the screen up to the big hit can be reproduced as it is, and the player can be put into the finish.
Further, the effect symbol display control board reproduces the background of the screen up to the big hit, triggered by the operation of the effect button during the big hit effect. In this way, the background of the screen up to the big hit can be reproduced at a timing desired by the player.
Further, the effect design display control board compares the remaining estimated time from the operation of the effect button to the end of the jackpot effect with the reproduction time required to reproduce the background of the screen until the jackpot, Only when the remaining estimated time is equal to or longer than the reproduction time, the history of the screen up to the big hit is reproduced. In this way, in reproducing the background of the screen up to the big hit, it is possible to avoid the inconvenience that the reproduction ends in the middle due to lack of time.

  According to the above configuration, during the big hit presentation, the background of the screen up to the big hit can be reproduced, including the change of the background based on the operation of the presentation button, so the actual background change and reproduction It is possible to avoid different background changes, and as a result, the background of the screen up to the big hit can be reproduced as it is, and the player can be put into the finish.

[Overall configuration of pachinko machine]
Next, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. 1 and 2, reference numeral 1 denotes a pachinko gaming machine (game machine), and the pachinko gaming machine 1 is attached to an outer frame 2 fixed to a pachinko island so as to be freely opened and closed.

By inserting cash or a prepaid card into the ballroom lending machine 3, A game ball is rented from the gaming machine 1, and a pachinko game using the game ball becomes possible.

  The front portion of the pachinko gaming machine 1 stores a game board 4 on which game balls are launched, an openable / closable glass frame 5 covering the front thereof, an upper plate 6 for storing game balls, and excess balls on the upper plate 6. By a player, a launching handle 8 for launching a game ball, a lending operation unit 9 for instructing a lending machine 3 to lend a game ball, a speaker 10 for outputting sound effects, and a player The pachinko gaming machine 1 has a play button B to be operated, and the back of the pachinko gaming machine 1 has a game ball tank 11 for storing a game ball for payout, and a game ball in the game ball tank 11 on the upper plate 6. A prize ball dispensing device 12 for dispensing, a launch motor 13 for launching a game ball, and various substrates to be described later are provided.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the game board 4 is provided with a start opening 14, a big prize opening 15, a prize opening (not shown), a gate (not shown), an out opening 16, a game nail 17, and the like. The game balls launched on the game board 4 are guided to the respective mouths 14 to 16 by the game nails 17. The game board 4 is provided with display devices such as a special symbol display device 18, an effect symbol display device 19, and a normal symbol display device 20. The special symbol display device 18 is a display device that displays the special symbols in a formally varying manner, and includes, for example, a 7-segment LED or a plurality of LEDs. The effect symbol display device 19 is a display device that variably displays an effect symbol corresponding to a special symbol. For example, the effect symbol display device 19 includes a liquid crystal panel, a reel unit, and the like. Display, jackpot effect display, etc.

[Basic operation of pachinko machines]
When the launch handle 8 is turned and operated in a state where the game balls are stored in the upper plate 6, the game balls are launched toward the game board 4. When the launched game ball wins a start opening 14 or a winning opening (not shown), a predetermined number of game balls are paid out as winning balls. Further, when the game ball passes through the gate (not shown), the normal symbol display device 20 displays the variation of the normal symbol, and when the stop symbol is a predetermined hit symbol, it is provided at the start port 14. The ordinary electric accessory 14a is opened for a predetermined time. When the game ball wins the start opening 14, the special symbol display device 18 and the production symbol display device 19 display the special symbols and the variation of the production symbols related to the special symbols, and these symbols are determined in advance. When the player stops at the hit arrangement, the player becomes a big hit mode in which the player can acquire many game balls.
Hereinafter, various game modes of the pachinko gaming machine 1 that are switched in response to the start or end of a big hit will be described with reference to FIG.

(1) Normal game mode In this mode, a low probability (for example, 1/300) is applied among the two stages of jackpot probabilities in the special symbol lottery. In this mode, the normal symbol lottery cycle is long.
(2) Big hit mode This mode is executed when the special symbol (effect symbol) stops in a predetermined hit arrangement, and the special electric accessory 15a provided in the big prize opening 15 is opened. This releasing operation is repeated over a predetermined number of rounds (for example, 15 rounds), with a predetermined time (for example, 30 seconds) or a predetermined number of winnings (for example, 10 balls) as one round.
(3) Probability variation mode This mode is executed with a predetermined probability (for example, ½) after the jackpot mode ends. That is, the special symbol lottery jackpot includes the normal winning in which the winning probability of the special symbol lottery is low after the opening operation of the special winning lot 15 and the winning probability of the special symbol lottery after the opening operation of the special winning lot 15 is performed. There is a probable hit with a high probability. For example, when the stop symbol at the time of big hit is a specific probability variation symbol, the probability variation probability is obtained. In the probability variation mode, the big hit probability is high (for example, 1/30), the lottery cycle of the normal symbol lottery is short, and the opening time of the normal electric accessory 14a is long, so It is possible to generate a big hit again without reducing it.
(4) Time reduction mode This mode is executed after the normal big hit mode ends. In the time reduction mode, the jackpot probability of the special symbol lottery is low, but since the lottery cycle of the normal symbol lottery is short and the opening time of the ordinary electric accessory 14a is long, the game is hardly reduced. Can continue. However, this mode is terminated when the number of changes in the special symbol reaches a predetermined number (for example, 100 times) after the big hit, and the mode is switched to the normal mode.

[Board configuration of pachinko machines]
Next, the substrate configuration of the pachinko gaming machine 1 will be described with reference to FIG. As shown in this figure, the pachinko gaming machine 1 includes at least a main board 21 and a peripheral board 22 that performs an effect process or the like in response to a command from the main board 21. The main board 21 of the present embodiment includes a main control board 23, a payout control board 24, and a launch motor control board 25, and the peripheral board 22 includes an effect symbol display control board 26, an audio control board 27, and a lamp control board 28. It is out.

  The payout control board 24 is connected to a ball break switch 29, a payout sensor 30, a payout motor 31, and the like. In accordance with the rental signal from the machine 3, the game balls are paid out. The firing motor control board 25 is connected to a firing switch (handle angle sensor) 32, a touch sensor 33, a firing motor 13, and the like. When the firing switch 32 and the touch sensor 33 are ON, the firing motor 13 is driven. Let

  The main control board 23 includes a winning port switch SW1 that detects a winning of a game ball with respect to a winning port (not shown), a starting port switch SW2 that detects a winning of a gaming ball with respect to the starting port 14, and a gate (not shown). Sensors such as a gate switch SW3 for detecting the passing of a game ball and a big prize opening switch SW4 for detecting a winning of a game ball with respect to the big prize opening 15, and a solenoid for opening and closing the normal electric combination 14a and the special electric combination 15a Actuators such as SOL and display devices such as special symbol display device 18 and normal symbol display device 20 are connected. Then, the main control board 23 performs special symbol lottery processing (including effect symbol lottery), special symbol display processing, command transmission processing, grand prize opening / closing processing, and the like in accordance with the detection signals of the switches SW1 to SW4. .

  The effect symbol display device 19 and the effect button B are connected to the effect symbol display control board 26, and the effect symbol display device 19 displays the effect symbols in a variable manner in response to a command from the main control board 23. A button effect display requesting the operation of the button B is performed. In addition, the speaker 10 is connected to the sound control board 27, and a predetermined effect sound is emitted from the speaker 10 in response to a command from the main control board 23 (or the effect symbol display control board 26). Further, a light emitting display lamp L is connected to the lamp control board 28, and the light emitting display lamp L is turned on in response to a command from the main control board 23 (or the effect symbol display control board 26).

[Direction display control]
Next, display control of the effect symbol display device 19 which is a main part of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to FIG. The main control board 23 performs a special symbol lottery (including production lottery) as to whether or not to generate a big hit state in accordance with the winning of the game ball to the start opening 14, and displays the lottery result as a stop symbol command and a variation pattern. To the effect symbol display board 26. The main control board 23 counts down the fluctuation time designated by the fluctuation pattern from the timing of sending the fluctuation pattern, and sends a later-described confirmation command to the effect symbol display board 26 at the end of the countdown. Yes. This confirmation command is for the main control board 23 to notify the effect symbol display board 26 that the previously specified variation time has ended, and to match each process between the boards. .
As shown in FIG. 6, the stop symbol command is a command for instructing the effect symbol to be finally stopped. For example, when the display symbol number of the effect symbol is 3 digits, the stop symbol command is instructed. be able to. However, if the result of the special symbol lottery is a loss, the main control board 23 transmits to the effect symbol display control board 26 that the stop symbol command is omitted as a stop symbol command, and the effect symbol display is based on the stop symbol command. A three-digit stop symbol may be created so that the control board 26 loses.
In addition, the variation pattern is a command for instructing the contents of the effect. For example, the special symbol lottery result (winning or losing), the presence / absence of the re-lottery effect, the type of the effect (the presence / absence of the reach, the presence / absence of the button effect, the background change, etc.) , Variable time etc. are included.

  When receiving the stop symbol command and the variation pattern, the effect symbol display control board 26 stores the stop symbol command and the variation pattern and performs an effect display (such as an effect symbol variation display) indicated by the variation pattern. For example, when the fluctuation pattern 4 (hit fluctuation pattern with re-lottery) shown in FIG. 6 is received, as shown in FIG. 7, first, a three-digit symbol is displayed in a variable manner, and then the left and right symbols stop at the same symbol. A reach state appears (first state). Next, after the appearance of the gaze state in which the 3-digit symbol stops at the same design (second state), the re-drawing state in which the 3-digit symbol fluctuates synchronously in the gaze state is caused to appear (the first state) 3 states). Then, the three-digit symbol is stopped at the symbol designated by the stop symbol command, and the stop symbol is confirmed when the confirmation command is received from the main control board 23 (fourth state).

  The number of display digits of the effect symbol and the number of effective lines in the effect symbol display device 19 can be arbitrarily set. The effective line L indicates an effective hit arrangement line. For example, as shown in FIG. 8A, when there is only one effective line L, only a single reach state appears. As shown in (B) of FIG. 8, when there are two effective lines L, a double reach state can appear. Further, as shown in (C) of FIG. It is possible to make reach reach. And a player's sense of expectation for a big hit increases as the number of effective lines increases.

[Button production]
Further, the effect symbol display control board 26 performs a button effect using the effect button B in order to raise the player's participation consciousness. As shown in FIG. 9, the button effect of the present embodiment is performed while the reach state is occurring on the active line. First, the operation of the effect button B is requested (screen A in FIG. 9). reference). Here, when the effect button B is operated, the background superimposed on the effect symbol is changed at that timing. For example, in the present embodiment, when the expectation of the big hit is high, at the timing when the effect button B is operated, the V-shaped background made up of a plurality of smile marks is directed from the bottom to the top of the screen so as to overlap the effect symbol. Are scroll-displayed (see screens B to E in FIG. 9). When such a button effect is performed, a sense of expectation for the big hit is increased due to a change in the background superimposed on the effect symbol, so that it is possible to encourage the player to actively participate in the button effect. The background referred to in the present invention broadly refers to images other than the effect symbols displayed on the effect symbol display device 19, and not only the original background image displayed superimposed on the rear side of the effect symbols, but also the effect. An image displayed in a superimposed manner on the near side of the symbol is also included.

[Big hit history recording means and big hit history reproduction means]
Further, the effect symbol display control board 26 is provided with big hit history recording means and big hit history reproduction means. As shown in FIG. 10, when the big hit history recording means receives a variation pattern in which the lottery result is a big hit, the background of the screen up to the big hit including the change of the background based on the operation of the effect button B is included. More specifically, the recording of the screen up to the big hit is sequentially recorded in the RAM on the effect symbol display control board 26 as it is. The big hit history reproduction means is means for reproducing the background of the screen up to the big hit including the change of the background based on the operation of the production button B based on the recorded data during the big hit effect. According to these means, it is possible to reproduce the background of the screen up to the big hit, including the change of the background based on the operation of the production button B, during the big hit presentation, so that the actual background change is reproduced. It is possible to avoid different background changes. As a result, the background of the screen up to the big hit can be reproduced as it is, and the player can be drawn to the finish.

  When reproducing the background of the screen up to the big hit as described above, the reproduction is preferably executed with the operation of the effect button B during the big hit effect. In this way, the background of the screen up to the big hit can be reproduced at a timing desired by the player and can be used as a big hit.

  Also, when reproducing the background of the screen up to the big hit, triggered by the operation of the production button B during the big hit presentation, the remaining estimated time T1 until the big hit presentation ends after the presentation button B is operated, and the big hit Compared with the reproduction time (variation time specified by the hit fluctuation pattern) T2 required to reproduce the background of the screen up to, only when the remaining estimated time T1 is equal to or longer than the reproduction time T2, the big hit It is preferable to reproduce the background of the screen up to. In this way, in reproducing the background of the screen up to the big hit, it is possible to avoid the inconvenience that the reproduction ends in the middle due to lack of time.

  Note that the estimated remaining time T1 until the big hit effect is finished is the number of game balls fired per minute of the pachinko gaming machine 1, the number of big hits, the winning rate to the big winning opening 15, and the winning of the big winning opening 15 in the round It is calculated in consideration of the number of balls, idle time between rounds, etc. For example, the number of game balls fired per minute by the pachinko machine 1 is 100 balls, the number of rounds per jackpot is 15 rounds, the winning rate to the grand prize opening 15 is 50%, and the number of winning balls in the big prize opening 15 in one round is If the idle time between 10 rounds is 2 seconds, the estimated digestion time of 1 round is 14 seconds, the estimated digestion time of 15 rounds is 240 seconds, and the remaining estimated time T1 is easily obtained from these estimated digestion times. be able to.

  Next, a control procedure (recording process and reproduction process) of the effect symbol display control board 26 constituting the various means will be described with reference to FIGS. As shown in FIG. 11, in the video recording process (big hit history recording means), first, it is determined whether or not the fluctuation pattern received this time is a win fluctuation pattern (S11). If the judgment result is YES, The recording storage area of the RAM is initialized (S12), and recording of an image to be displayed on the effect symbol display device 19 is started (S13). In this recording process, the background of the screen up to the big hit is recorded including the change of the background based on the operation of the effect button B. Based on the reception of the confirmation command (S14), the recording is completed (S15).

  As shown in FIG. 12, in the reproduction process, first, the reproduction time T2 required to reproduce the background of the screen up to the big hit (S21), from the operation of the production button B to the end of the big hit production. The initial value of the remaining estimated time T1 is set (S22). Here, the time set in T2 is the fluctuation time specified by the hit fluctuation pattern, and the time set in T1 is the estimated digestion time of 15 rounds described above. When these are set, the countdown of the time T1 is started (S23), the operation of the effect button B is determined (S24), and when the determination result is YES, the current remaining estimated estimation time T1 is acquired (S25). ). Then, the remaining estimated time T1 and the reproduction time T2 are compared (S26). If the remaining estimated time T1 is longer than the reproduction time T2, the background of the screen up to the big hit is reproduced based on the recorded data (S26). S27).

  According to the present embodiment configured as described, a main control board 23 that performs a big hit lottery to determine whether or not to generate a big hit state according to the winning of a game ball with respect to the start port 14, a predetermined background image, An effect symbol display device 19 for displaying a combination of effect symbols as a result of the big hit lottery, superimposed on the background image, an effect symbol display control board 26 for controlling the effect symbol display device 19, and an operation by the player The main control board 23 transmits to the effect symbol display control board 26 a variation pattern that designates what kind of process is to be performed after the jackpot lottery to display the result of the jackpot lottery, The effect symbol display control board 26 determines how to change the background of the effect symbol based on the variation pattern, and the effect button B is operated to change the background. In the pachinko gaming machine 1 that is to be executed at the timing, when the effect symbol display control board 26 receives a variation pattern in which the result of the big hit lottery is a big hit, the effect button Based on the operation of the effect button B, the hitting history recording means for recording including the change of the background based on the operation of B and the background of the screen up to the big hit based on the recorded data during the jackpot effect. With the big hit history reproduction means that reproduces the background change, it avoids the difference between the actual background change and the reproduced background change, and as a result, reproduces the screen history up to the big hit as it is. However, it is possible to attract the player to the reverberation.

  In addition, the production symbol display control board 26 reproduces the background of the screen up to the big hit, triggered by the operation of the production button B during the big hit presentation, so the player desires the background of the screen up to the big hit. Can be reproduced at the timing.

  Further, the effect symbol display control board 26 has a remaining estimated time T1 from when the effect button B is operated to the end of the big hit effect, and a reproduction time T2 required to reproduce the background of the screen until the big hit. In comparison, only when the remaining estimated time T1 is equal to or longer than the reproduction time T2, the screen history up to the big hit is reproduced, so when reproducing the screen background up to the big hit, the reproduction is due to lack of time. The inconvenience that ends in the middle can be avoided.

[Second Embodiment]
Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. According to the second embodiment of the present invention, when a variation pattern in which the result of the big hit lottery is a big hit is received, the big hit history recording means for recording the background of the screen up to the big hit, and the fluctuation in which the result of the big hit lottery is a big hit When the pattern is received, an operation timing storage means for storing the operation timing of the effect button B is separately provided, and during the big hit effect, the background of the screen until the big hit is determined based on the recording data and the operation timing data. The point which reproduces also including the change of the background based on operation of the production button B is different from 1st embodiment. Even in this way, during the big hit effect, the background of the screen up to the big hit can be reproduced including the background change based on the operation of the effect button B, so that it is reproduced as the actual background change. It can be avoided that the background changes are different.

  Specifically, FIG. 13 is a processing flow corresponding to the operation timing storage means. In this processing, it is determined whether or not the variation pattern received this time is a winning variation pattern (S31). If the result is YES, the timer counter is cleared (S32), the timer count is started (S33), and it is determined whether or not the operation button B is within the allowable operation time (S34). While this determination is YES, the operation of the effect button B is determined (S35), and when the effect button B is operated, a timer count value at the time of operation is acquired (S36), and this is sequentially stored in a predetermined storage area. Store (S37). Thereby, a timer table (operation timing storage data) in which the operation timing of the effect button B is sequentially stored is created.

  FIG. 14 is a processing flow that is also used for button effect processing and button effect reproduction processing (big hit history reproduction means) at the time of normal reach change. In this processing, first, an operation request screen for the effect button B is displayed ( S41), the timer is activated (S42). Next, the presence / absence of the timer table is determined (S43). If the determination result is NO, since the button effect is a normal reach variation, the operation of the effect button B within the effect button operation allowable time (S44) is performed. A determination is made (S45), a background image as shown in FIG. 10 is inserted according to the determination result (S46), and when the insertion of the background image is completed (S47), the normal button effect process is terminated.

  On the other hand, if there is a timer table, it is determined that the process is a reproduction process during a big hit effect, and the timer table is activated (S48). Then, it is determined whether the storage operation timing data in the timer table matches the current timer within the production button operation allowable time (S49) (S50), and a background image as shown in FIG. 10 is inserted according to the determination result (S51). ) When the insertion of the background image is finished (S52), the button effect reproduction process is finished.
