Description

  The present invention relates to a gaming machine having two special symbols.

In recent years, two special symbols, a first special symbol and a second special symbol, are provided, a first start port and a second start port corresponding to each special symbol are provided, and a second start port is formed by a normal electric accessory. There is something.
In such a gaming machine, the bonus value resulting from winning a prize at the second start opening generally increases the privilege value, and the symbol variation of the second symbol variation is preferentially displayed.
Such a gaming machine is configured so that the player shifts to a very advantageous state when the opening extension function is activated or when the opening extension function is activated from the normal time, thereby suppressing the decrease in interest during the opening extension operation. There is an effect that can be done.
JP 2007-268126 A

However, in the case of such a gaming machine, when the opening extension function is activated, the second start port is preferentially digested, so that the hold by the second start port is not interrupted, and the hold memory by the first start port is stored. Ends almost without digestion.
In this case, when the probability memory includes a hold memory by the first starting port that is not a hit at normal time but a hit at the time of probability change, even though the player is deducting a win. However, there is a problem that a situation where the probability variation state is terminated without losing the hit in the hold memory by the first starting port and the jackpot right is extinguished without the player's noticing. there were.

  Therefore, the present invention is to prevent the probability variation from being terminated without digestion in spite of the hit as described above.

In order to solve the above-mentioned problem, a gaming machine according to claim 1,
A first start port provided in the game area;
A second starting port that can be changed between an open state where winning is easy and a closed state where winning is difficult;
A random number for determination of success / failure used at the time of determination of success / failure obtained by winning at the first start opening or the second start opening;
First holding means for holding and storing the random number for determination of success / failure acquired by winning the first start opening up to a predetermined number;
Second holding means for holding and storing up to a predetermined number of the random numbers for success / failure determination acquired by winning at the second start opening;
A go / no-go decision means for executing the go / no-go decision of the go / no-go decision random number stored in the first hold means or the second hold means;
An effect display device for effect-displaying the result of the determination of success / failure by the determination unit;
A jackpot gaming state that is advantageous to a player who makes a transition when an effect display in which the result of the success / failure determination is a win is displayed on the effect display device;
Opening extension means for changing the period or the number of times that the second starting port is in the open state after the jackpot gaming state ends;
In a gaming machine provided with a high probability state transition means for transitioning to a high probability state, the probability of hit determination by the success / failure determination means,
The winning value is set higher for the winning attributed to the second starting port than the winning attributed to the first starting port, and the success / failure determining means is stored in the first holding means. Second hold priority determination means for preferentially determining whether or not the random number for correct / invalid determination stored in the second hold means from the correct / incorrect determination of the random number for correct / incorrect determination.
A second success / failure determination means for performing the success / failure determination of the random number for determination of success / failure acquired at the time of winning a prize to the first start opening;
First informing the player that there is at least one of the first holding means determined to be a hit by the second success / failure determination means when the high probability state transition means and the opening extension means are in operation or when the operation is confirmed. A gaming machine comprising a per-hold notification means.

  The random number for determining whether or not the winning is included includes at least a random number used for determining whether or not, and includes a variation pattern determining random number, a jackpot symbol determining random number, a reach determining random number, and the like.

  The first per-holding notification means may be notified by displaying on the effect display device, or may be notified by light emission or sound of an LED, and is not particularly limited as long as the method can be determined by the player.

  The time when the operation is confirmed refers to the time from when the winning determination means determines that it is a winning until the end of the big hit gaming state.

In order to solve the above problem, a gaming machine according to claim 2 is:
The first on-hold notification means determines the high probability per unit to shift to a high probability state after the big hit gaming state by the second hit / non-use determination means in the success / failure determination random number stored in the first hold means. If there is something, a high-probability notification means that suggests a transition to a high-probability state and / or a normal notification means that suggests a transition to a normal state if there is a thing determined to be a normal hit that does not transition to a high-probability state The gaming machine according to claim 1, further comprising:

In order to solve the above problem, a gaming machine according to claim 3 is:
The first holding hit notification means notifies that it is a hit even in a normal state when the second hit / fail judgment means determines that it is a hit even in a normal state. The gaming machine according to claim 1 or 2.

  In this case, there can be considered a configuration in which the second win / fail judgment means first determines whether or not it is a hit in the high-probability state, and determines whether or not it is a hit even in the normal state.

  According to the gaming machine of the first aspect, when there is at least one of the high probability state transition means and the opening extension means during operation or when the operation is confirmed, it is determined that the second retention determination means hits the first holding means. Since the notification is made by the notification unit for holding, it is possible to prevent the player from being lost without noticing when the first holding unit includes a random number for determining whether or not it is a hit.

  According to the gaming machine of claim 2, if the first hold notification means shifts to a high probability state after the big hit state ends by the second hold determination means to the first hold means, it is suggested that the first hold means is high probability. However, if it is suggested that it is a normal hit if it does not shift to the high probability state, the player determines whether or not the first hold should be digested based on the content notified by the first hold per notification means. I can do it.

  If the notification means for the first holding is notified only when there is a high probability, the player loses if the player does not digest the first holding when the notification is made by the notification means for the first holding. For this reason, it is possible to obtain a high probability per unit that has been extinguished after the high probability state ends.

  If the first per-holding notification means is notified only when it is not per high probability, if the player is notified by the first per-holding notification means, the player will lose if the first hold is digested. It can be judged. Therefore, it is possible to prevent a situation in which the high probability state is terminated by the first holding means regardless of the main game characteristic of the second holding means when the opening extension means in the high probability state is operated.

  According to the gaming machine of the third aspect, when there is something that the first holding hit notification means determines that it is a hit even in the normal state by the second win / fail determination means, the player can notify that even in the normal state. Therefore, it can be determined that there is no need to digest when the open extension means is operated.

  Next, embodiments of the present invention will be described based on examples of the present invention. The present invention is not limited to the following examples and the like, and it goes without saying that the present invention can be implemented in various ways without departing from the gist of the present invention.

Further, the main control device 80 controls the opening / closing of the special winning opening 14 by controlling the special winning opening solenoid 14b, and controls the opening / closing of the second starting opening 12 by controlling the ordinary accessory solenoid 12b.
The output signal from the main controller 80 is also output to the test signal terminal, and a management signal such as symbol variation and big hit is output to the external connection terminal 78 and sent to the hall main computer.

The main control device 80 and the payout control device 81 can perform bidirectional communication.
The payout control device 81 operates the payout motor 20 in accordance with a command sent from the main control device 80 and pays out a prize ball. In the present embodiment, the detection signal of the payout sensor 21 for counting game balls to be paid out as prize balls is input to the payout control device 81, and the payout control device 81 counts the prize balls. In addition, it is also conceivable to use a configuration in which the detection signal of the payout sensor 21 is input to the main control device 80 and the payout control device 81 and the main control device 80 and the payout control device 81 count the prize balls.
The dispensing control device 81 receives signals from the glass frame opening switch 18, the inner frame opening switch, the full switch 22 and the ball break switch 23, and a signal indicating that the lower plate 63 is full by the full switch 22 is provided. When the signal is input and when a signal indicating that there are few or no game balls is input to the ball tank 71 by the ball cut switch 23, the payout motor 20 is stopped and the payout operation of the prize ball is stopped. Note that the full switch 22 and the ball break switch 23 are also configured to continue outputting signals until the state is cleared, and the payout control device 81 causes the payout motor 20 to stop being output.

Bi-directional communication is possible between the sub integrated control device 83 and the production symbol control device 82.
The effect symbol control device 82 displays the effect symbol display based on the data and commands received from the sub integrated control device 83 (both those transmitted from the main control device 80 and those generated by the sub integrated control device 83). The device 6 is controlled to display an effect image such as a pseudo symbol on the screen 6a.

Next, each process performed by the main controller 80 as a main routine will be described with reference to FIG.
The flowchart shown in FIG. 5 represents a main process executed by the microcomputer of the main controller 80, and is a process periodically executed by a hardware interrupt every about 2 ms. In the present embodiment, each process from S10 to S21 is a process that is executed only once in the interrupt process, and is referred to as “main process”, and is repeated as long as time permits within the remaining time after executing this main process. The process of S22 to be executed is referred to as “residual process”.

  When a hardware interrupt is executed by the microcomputer, it is first determined whether or not the interrupt is a normal interrupt (S10). This determination process is performed by determining whether or not the value of a predetermined area of the RAM as a memory is a predetermined value. When the process executed by the microcomputer shifts to this process, the normal process is executed. It is for judging whether it is okay. If the interrupt is not normal, microcomputer runaway due to noise or the like may be considered when power is turned on. However, microcomputer runaway may be considered to be almost impossible due to recent technological improvements, and is usually when power is turned on. When the power is turned on, the value of the predetermined area of the RAM is different from the predetermined value.

  If it is determined that the interrupt is not normal (S10: NO), the initial value is written into the work area of the memory, such as writing a predetermined value in the predetermined area of the memory, and using a special symbol and a normal symbol as an initial symbol, that is, Initial settings are made (S15), and the process proceeds to residual processing.

  If a positive determination is made that the interrupt is normal, an initial value random number update process is first executed (S20). This process is an increment process that increments the initial random number value by 1 each time this process is executed. The initial random number value before this process is incremented by +1, but the random number value before this process is executed is the maximum. When the value is “349”, it returns to the initial value “0” in the next processing, and 350 integers from “0” to “349” are repeatedly generated in ascending order.

The big hit determination random number update process (S25) following S20 is an increment process that is incremented by 1 each time the process is executed, as in the initial value random number update process. When the maximum value is "349", the next process starts with the next process. Then, 350 integers from “0” to “349” are repeatedly generated in ascending order.
When the jackpot determining random number is one week (one round), the initial value random number at that time is set as the initial value of the jackpot determining random number, and the jackpot determining random number is incremented by 1 from the initial value. . Then, when the big hit determining random number is again one week (one round), the operation of setting the initial value random number at that time to the initial value of the big hit determining random number is performed. That is, this series of operations is repeated.

  The jackpot symbol determination random number update process (S30) is configured as a counter that repeatedly creates ten integers “0” to “9”, and is incremented by 1 every time this process is exceeded. Return to.

  The winning determination random number update process (S35) following S30 is configured as a counter that repeatedly creates six integers “0” to “5”, and is incremented by 1 every time this process is exceeded. Return to a certain “0”. The number of values to be won is 3 in both the normal probability state and the high probability state, and the values are “0”, “3”, and “5”. This winning decision random number update process is used for lottery of normal symbols, and other initial value random numbers, big hit determination random numbers, big hit symbol determination random numbers, reach determination random numbers, and fluctuation pattern determination random numbers are drawn special symbols. Used for.

  The reach determination random number update process (S40) is configured as a counter that repeatedly generates 229 integers from “0” to “228”, and is incremented by +1 for each process and the initial value is “0”. Return to. In the normal probability state, the number of values won when the variable time shortening function is not activated is 21, and the values are “0” to “20”. The number is 5, the values are “0” to “4”, the number of values to be won in the high probability state is 6, and the values are “0” to “5”.

  The variation pattern determination random number update process (S45) is configured as a counter that repeatedly creates 1021 integers from “0” to “1020”, and is incremented by 1 for each process and is the first value when the maximum value is exceeded. Return to "0".

In the subsequent winning confirmation process (S50), confirmation of winning in the first starting port 11 and the second starting port 12 and input processing of each switch provided in the pachinko machine 50 and connected to the main controller 80 are executed.
In this embodiment, when a game ball wins the first start port 11 and the second start port 12, a plurality of random numbers such as a big hit determination random number, a big hit symbol determination random number, a variation pattern determination random number, a reach determination random number, etc. are acquired. However, the number that can be reserved is limited to 4 each of the first start port 11 and the second start port 12, and when the first reserved memory is full, the game ball is stored in the first start port 11. Even if the winning ball or the second hold memory is full, even if the game ball wins the second start port 12, only the winning ball is paid out, and the plurality of random numbers are not stored. Yes.

  Subsequently, a success / failure determination process (S55) is performed as condition establishment determination means for determining whether or not a big hit. This success / failure determination process will be described later. When this success / failure determination process (S55) ends, each output process (S60) such as an image output process is subsequently executed.

  In each output process (S60), as the game progresses, the main control device 80 controls the production symbol control device 82, the payout control device 81, the launch control device 84, the sub integrated control device 83, the big prize opening solenoid 14b, and the like. Each output process is executed. That is, when it is detected by the winning confirmation process (S50) that there is a winning game ball in each winning slot on the game board 1, the winning ball data is output to the payout control device 81 so as to pay out the gaming ball as a winning ball. In the process of outputting sound data corresponding to the gaming state to the sub-integrated control device 83, an error signal is output to the production symbol control device 82 to notify that there is an error when the pachinko machine 50 is abnormal. Each process is executed.

  In the subsequent fraud monitoring process (S65), it is monitored whether or not fraud is performed on the normal winning award (the first left winning port 31, the second left winning port 32, the first right winning port 33, the second right winning port 34). It is a process to determine whether or not the number of game balls entering the winning opening within a predetermined time is greater than a predetermined number. It is processing to do. That is, the fraud determination means is provided in the main controller 80.

  The above-described remaining process following this process is composed of the initial value random number update process (S70), but is exactly the same process as S20 described above. This process forms an infinite loop and is repeated as long as time is allowed until the next interrupt is executed. The time required to execute this processing from S10 to S65 described above differs for each interrupt depending on whether or not to execute the jackpot processing, the difference in the display mode of special symbols, and the like. As a result, the number of times the remaining process is executed is different for each interrupt, and the initial value random number updated (added) value is not uniform by executing the interrupt process shown in FIG. 5 once. As a result, there is no possibility that the initial value random number is synchronized with the jackpot determination random number. In the present embodiment, since the update of the big hit determination random number is changed according to the value of the initial random number, there is no possibility of synchronization. The hit determination random number update process (S35) described above may also be executed in the remaining process.

In the start winning confirmation process shown in FIG. 6, the main controller 80 determines whether or not a game ball has entered the first start port 11 based on the detection signal of the first start port switch 11a (S100). .
If the determination is affirmative (S100: YES), the jackpot determination random number, the jackpot symbol determination random number, the reach determination random number, the fluctuation pattern determination random number, etc. are read from the corresponding counters, and the first reserved memory is full (this embodiment) It is determined whether the number is 4) (S105).
If the first reserved memory is not full (S105: NO), each random number is stored as the first reserved memory, the number of lighting of the first special symbol reserved memory display device 18 is increased by 1 (S110), and the second Each random number stored as the validity determination process is determined (S115). Then, control is performed so that the information on the number of the first reserved storage is transmitted to the sub-integrated control board together with the result of the second success / failure determination (S120). If there are already four first hold memories (S105: YES), no hold is stored, and the number of lighting of the first special symbol hold storage display device 18 is not increased.
Note that the main control board 80 of the present embodiment is configured to delete the second determination result when the second determination result is transmitted to the sub integrated control device 83.
If no game ball has entered the first start port (S100: NO), it is determined whether or not a game ball has entered the second start port 12 based on the detection signal of the second start port switch 12a. (S125). If the determination is affirmative, whether the jackpot determination random number, the jackpot symbol determination random number, the reach determination random number, the variation pattern determination random number, etc. are read from the corresponding counters, and the second reserved memory is full (four in this embodiment)? It is determined whether or not (S130).
If the second reserved memory is not full (S130: NO), the above random numbers are stored as the second reserved memory, and the number of lighting of the second special symbol reserved memory display device 19 is increased by 1 (S135). Then, control is performed so as to transmit information on the number of the second reserved storage to the sub integrated control board (S140). If there are already four second reserved memories (S130: YES), the second reserved memory is not stored, and the number of lighting of the second special symbol reserved memory display device 19 is not increased.

In the success / failure determination process shown in FIG. 7, main controller 80 determines whether or not the condition device is in operation based on the jackpot flag (S200).
If the determination in S200 is negative, the special symbol is not changing (S205: NO), and the confirmed symbol is not being displayed (S210: NO), whether there is a second reserved memory (the above-described reserved memory in S135) or not. Is determined (S215).
If there is this reserved memory (S215: NO), as shown in FIG. 8, the oldest one of the second reserved memories is read (the second reserved memory is erased), and the probability variation flag is set (high It is determined whether or not (probability state) (S305). If the determination is affirmative (S305: YES), the read big hit determination random number is collated with the hit value recorded in the probability variation table (S310).
If the determination is negative (S305: NO), the read big hit determination random number is collated with the hit value recorded in the normal table (S315).
In this embodiment, as described above, the player wins with a probability of 1/350 in the normal probability state and wins with the probability of 1/35 in the high probability game state.

If the determination in S310 or S315 is a big hit (S320: YES), the big hit symbol is determined by the big hit symbol determination random number (S325), and the fluctuation pattern is determined by the fluctuation pattern determination random number (S330).
On the other hand, when it is out (S320: NO), the variation pattern is determined based on the reach determination random number and the variation pattern determination random number (S335). In the case of the present embodiment, the display of the special symbol in the case of losing is only one type of “-”, so the losing symbol does not need to be determined.

Subsequent to S330 or S335, data indicating the lottery result described above, specifically, data indicating any one of the normal big hit, the probable big hit, the loss of reach (displacement but with reach display), and the disengagement without reach display. A change start command (display control command) including change pattern data for specifying change time is output to the sub-integrated control device 83, and the read hold memory is erased. Output to. Further, the second special symbol display device 10 is controlled to start the variable display of the second special symbol (S340).
Therefore, the sub-integrated control device 83 can determine the jackpot symbol or the off symbol (hereinafter collectively referred to as a fixed symbol), the presence / absence of the reach, and the variation time based on the variation start command. Receiving the variation start command, the sub integrated control device 83 performs sound and lamp effect control in response to the special symbol variation display, and sends a variation start command to the effect symbol control device 82.

If there is no second reserved memory (S215: YES), it is determined whether there is a first reserved memory (the above-mentioned reserved memory in S110) (S220).
If there is this hold memory (S220: NO), as shown in FIG. 9, the oldest one of the first hold memories is read (the first hold memory 18 is erased), and the probability variation flag is set ( It is determined whether or not it is in a high probability state (S405). If the determination is affirmative (S405: YES), the read big hit determination random number is collated with the hit value recorded in the probability variation table (S410).
If the determination is negative (S405: NO), the read big hit determination random number is collated with the hit value recorded in the normal table (S415).
In this embodiment, as described above, the player wins with a probability of 1/350 in the normal probability state and wins with the probability of 1/35 in the high probability game state.

If the determination in S410 or S415 is a big hit (S420: YES), the big hit symbol is determined by the big hit symbol determination random number (S425), and the variation pattern is determined by the variation pattern determination random number (S430).
On the other hand, if it is off (S420: NO), the variation pattern is determined based on the reach determination random number and the variation pattern determination random number (S435). In the case of the present embodiment, the display of the special symbol in the case of losing is only one type of “-”, so the losing symbol does not need to be determined.

Subsequent to S430 or S435, data indicating the above-described lottery result, specifically, data indicating any one of the normal big hit, the probable big hit, the out of reach (with out of reach but with reach display), and out of no reach display. A change start command (display control command) including change pattern data for specifying change time is output to the sub-integrated control device 83, and the read hold memory is erased. Output to. Further, the first special symbol display device 9 is controlled to start the variable display of the first special symbol (S440).
Therefore, the sub-integrated control device 83 can determine the jackpot symbol or the off symbol (hereinafter collectively referred to as a fixed symbol), the presence / absence of the reach, and the variation time based on the variation start command. Receiving the variation start command, the sub integrated control device 83 performs sound and lamp effect control in response to the special symbol variation display, and sends a variation start command to the effect symbol control device 82.

  Note that even if the jackpot symbol is the same jackpot determination random number, there is a higher possibility of determining a jackpot symbol that is more advantageous to the player in the process of S325 than the process of S425. For example, it is conceivable to set a large number of times a special winning opening is opened when a special game state described later is entered.

If the special symbol is changing (S205: YES), main controller 80 determines whether the symbol change time (based on the change pattern of S330 or S335, 430, or 435) has elapsed as shown in FIG. Judgment is made (S500).
If the determination is affirmative, a symbol stop command is output to the sub-integrated control device 83, and the changed special symbol display device is controlled to display the confirmed symbol in a definite manner (S505). Receiving the symbol stop command, the sub integrated control device 83 ends the sound and lamp effects in response to the special symbol variation display, and sends a symbol stop command to the effect symbol control device 82.

If the special symbol that has been confirmed and displayed is a big hit (S510: YES), main controller 80 performs a decided symbol display setting process (S515), and sets a big hit flag by the conditional device operation start process (S520). set.
Subsequently, it is determined whether or not the probability variation flag is set (S525). If the determination is affirmative, the probability variation flag and the time reduction flag are cleared (S530). If the determination is negative (S525: NO), it is determined whether or not the time reduction flag is set (time reduction state) (S535), and if the determination is affirmative, the time reduction flag is cleared (S540).

When the special symbol that has been confirmed and displayed is not a big hit (that is, missed) (S510: NO), a confirmed symbol display setting process (S545) is performed to determine whether or not the open extension flag = 1 (S550). If the release extension flag = 1 (S550: YES), the value of the stored extension extension counter is decremented by -1 (S555). If the value of this counter becomes 0 (S560: YES), each flag Is finished (S565).
In the process of S565, the time reduction flag and the open extension flag are ended.

  If the determined symbol is being displayed in S210 (S210: YES), as shown in FIG. 11, it is determined whether or not the determined symbol display time set in the determined symbol display setting (S515 or S545) has passed ( S600), if it has elapsed (S600: YES), the special symbol display device is controlled by the final symbol display end processing (S605) to end the final display of the special symbol. The control device 82 is instructed to end the pseudo symbol confirmation display.

  In the special game process shown in FIG. 12, main controller 80 determines whether or not the condition device is operating based on the jackpot flag (S700). If the condition device is operating (S700: YES), it is determined whether or not the special winning opening 14 is open (S705). The jackpot symbol is not being opened (S705: NO), not being the jackpot start effect (S710: NO), not being in the interval (S715: NO), and not being the jackpot end effect (S720: NO). Then, the big hit state is stored (S725), and a big hit start command is transmitted to the sub integrated control device 83 by the big hit start effect process (S730), and the big winning opening 14 is opened.

  The sub-integrated control device 83 starts the sound of the jackpot voice and lamp, and sends a jackpot start command to the performance symbol control device 82. The effect symbol control device 82 that has received the jackpot start command controls the effect symbol display device 6 to display a jackpot start effect (so-called fanfare screen). The big winning opening 14 is opened after waiting for the big hit start effect. If a positive determination is made in S710, S715, or S720, the process returns.

  If an affirmative determination is made in S705 (S705: YES), it is determined based on the detection signal of the count switch 14a whether or not there are 10 winning balls to the big winning opening 14 (S735). It is determined whether or not the mouth opening time is over (S740). If a negative determination is made in S740, the process returns. If a positive determination is made in S735 or S740, the special winning opening 14 is closed (S745). Subsequently, it is determined whether or not it is the final round (S750). If the determination is negative, an interval command is transmitted to the sub integrated control device 83 and an interval command is received from the sub integrated control device 83 by the big hit interval process (S755). When the screen display of the effect symbol display device 6 is changed under the control of the effect symbol control device 82, the special winning opening 14 is opened.

When the affirmative determination is made in S750, the big hit operation is not continued, so a big hit end command is transmitted to the sub-integrated control device 83 by the big hit end effect processing (S760), and the conditional device is stopped by the conditional device stop processing (S765) ( Clear the jackpot flag).
If the jackpot symbol that is confirmed and displayed on the special symbol display device 9 in S515 and stored in S725 is a probable variation symbol (S770: YES), the probability variation flag = 1 and the time reduction flag = 1 are set (S775). (S770: NO), the value of the hour / hour counter is set to 100, and the hour / hour flag is set to 1 (S780). Note that while the time reduction flag is set, the release extension flag is also set to 1. After the processing of S775 and S780, a big hit end command is transmitted to the sub integrated control device 83 (S785).

The diagram shown in FIG. 13 is the second success / failure determination process (S115) performed by the main controller 80.
The main controller 80 determines whether the various random numbers stored by winning are values that are big hits in the probability variation table (S800). If the determination is affirmative (S800: YES), it is determined whether the stored random numbers are probable (S805). If the determination is affirmative, the first per-hold flag is set to 1 (S810). If a negative determination is made (S805: NO), the first per-hold flag is set to 2 (S815).
Note that the first per-holding flag is transmitted to the sub-integrated control device 83 when the first holding number is transmitted. In this embodiment, the hold notification flag is reset after transmission, but may be stored until the hold storage is read in S400.

The diagram shown in FIG. 14 shows the hold number update process by the sub integrated control device 83.
The sub integrated control device 83 determines whether information on the second reserved number has been received (S900). If the determination is affirmative (S900: YES), the number of holds on the second hold number display unit 101 is updated by the second hold number display update process (S905). If it is negative determination (S900: NO), it will be determined whether the information of the 1st pending | holding number was received (S910). If the determination is affirmative (S910: YES), it is determined whether or not the received information on the number of holds includes the first hold flag (S915). If it is included, the value of the received flag is set, the rank of the hold number is stored (S920), and S915 updates the hold number of the first hold number display unit 100 in either determination (S925).
Then, it is determined whether or not the current gaming state is a probable change state (S930). If it is a probable change state (S930: YES), it is confirmed whether it is unreported (S935), and if it is unannounced (S935: YES), Control is performed so that the hold information is notified on the liquid crystal by the 1 hold result notification process (S940).
Note that the value of the set first hold flag is deleted by deleting the hold memory that contained the first hold flag.

The diagram shown in FIG. 15 is the first hold notification determination process by the sub integrated control device 83.
When the sub-integrated control device 83 receives the jackpot end command from the main control device 80 by the process of S785, the sub-integrated control device 83 starts the jackpot end effect and, when shifting to the probability change state (S1000: YES), S920 is stored in the first reserved storage. It is determined whether or not the first hold-per-hold flag stored in (5) is set (S1005). If the determination is affirmative (S1005: YES), a notification based on the value of the first per-holding flag is executed at the time of transition to the effect screen at the time of probability change (S1010).

FIG. 16 shows the first per-holding notification process.
If the first hold-per-hold flag is 1 (S1100: YES), the sub integrated control device 83 sends a command to the effect symbol control device 82 so as to notify that the first hold includes per probability change. (S1105), if the first hold-per-hold flag is not 1 (S1100: NO), a command is transmitted to the production symbol control device 82 so as to notify that the first hold includes a normal hit ( S1110).

FIG. 17 is a display example of this embodiment.
(A) is a display example when the probability change is in progress and the first reserved memory does not include a hit. Since the win is not included in this case, the reserved storage display remains normal and does not change.
(B) is a display example when the probability change is in progress and the probability change is included in the first reserved memory. In this case, the reserved memory corresponding to the probability change is displayed on the first number-of-holds display section 100 to indicate that the player is the hot reserved memory, and by stopping the game ball firing, One reserved memory can be digested.
(C) is a display example when the probability change is in progress and a normal hit is included in the first reserved memory. In this case, the reserved memory corresponding to the normal number is displayed on the first number-of-holds display unit 100 in a rough manner, so that the player is suggested to be a cold reserved memory, and the second reserved memory is preferentially digested. Therefore, the first reserved memory can be prevented from being digested.
In this embodiment, the notification method uses the hold display displayed on the effect symbol display device. However, the notification method is not limited to this, and the notification may be made using a background or a character. Various methods may be used, such as a method of informing by light emission from a lamp or a lamp.

  The above is the embodiment, but if there is a pending storage that is definitely changed in the first pending memory during the probability change, that fact is notified, and if there is a reserved memory that is a normal hit, the player notifies that fact. When the state becomes the state, it is possible to determine whether it is better to digest the first reserved memory by looking at the correspondence of the first reserved number display unit 100, even though there is a probability change in the first reserved memory. , It is possible to prevent the right of the probability change from being lost by ending the probability change state, and the second reserved memory is digested with the first reserved memory in spite of the main game characteristic, and the normal hit is subtracted. I can suppress feelings of regret.

In the present embodiment, only the first hold memory being changed is pre-produced by pre-reading. However, even when the first hold memory in the normal state is used for pre-reading production, or the second hold memory being changed is pre-read produced. good.
It is also possible to suggest whether it is a big hit with limited probability or a big hit at normal times.
In the present embodiment, the sub-integrated control device 83 stores the prefetched result and notifies the state according to the state. However, the main control device 80 may manage and notify the sub-integrated control device 83 at the timing of notification. .

[Second Embodiment]
Next, a second embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS.
In the first embodiment, the first hold memory is notified when the probability change state is detected. However, in the second embodiment, the first hold memory includes the probability change hit or the normal hit at the time of the hit display by the probability change symbol in the normal state. The structure suggests that Other than this, the configuration is substantially the same as in the first embodiment. For this reason, the same reference numerals as those in the first embodiment are assigned and the description thereof is omitted, and different points are described.

The diagram shown in FIG. 18 shows the number-of-holds update process in the sub integrated control device 83 in the second embodiment.
The sub integrated control device 83 determines whether information on the second reserved number has been received (S1200). If the determination is affirmative (S1200: YES), the number of holds on the second hold number display unit 101 is updated by the second hold number display update process (S1205). If it is negative determination (S1200: NO), it will be determined whether the information of the 1st pending | holding number was received (S1210). If the determination is affirmative (S1210: YES), it is determined whether the received hold number information includes the first hold flag (S1215). If it is included, the value of the received flag is set, and the ranking of the number of holds is stored (S1220). Then, regardless of which determination is made in S1215, the number of holds in the first hold number display unit 100 is updated (S1225).
Note that the value of the set flag is erased by using the reserved memory that contained the first reserved flag.

The diagram shown in FIG. 19 is a first hold notification determination process in the second embodiment.
When the sub integrated control device 83 receives the symbol stop command from the main control device 80 in the process of S505, the sub integrated control device 83 performs control so as to stop the symbol that has been variably displayed by the effect symbol display device 6, and the symbol that has been stopped is a probability change symbol. Is determined (S1300). If it is a probability change symbol (S1300: YES), it is determined whether the current gaming state is a normal state (S1305). If an affirmative determination is made (S1305: YES), it is determined whether there is a first hold flag that is not 0 in the first hold memory (S1310). If an affirmative determination is made (S1310: YES), the first hold is made. As the notification process, it is notified that there is a hit in the first reserved storage. When the notification is made, the first hold flag is set to zero. (S1315)

The figure shown in FIG. 20 is a display example of the notification method in the second embodiment.
(A) is the start of hit fluctuation. Note that the second hold in the first hold storage is a hold per probability change.
(B) is the figure which changed for a predetermined time from (a) and became reach.
(C) is a figure when it further fluctuates for a predetermined time from (b) and the winning is displayed in a fixed manner. In the present embodiment, odd-numbered symbols are probabilistic and therefore are probable hits. Then, the first hold memory that is a probability change is shining on the first hold number display unit 100 to notify the player that the probability change is likely.
As in the first embodiment, the notification method is not limited to this, and a configuration in which notification is made using a background, a character, or the like may be used, or a method of notification by light emission such as sound or a lamp may be used, and various methods are used. I can do it.

The above is the configuration of the second embodiment. Since it is configured to notify the type of the hit if there is a hit in the first hold memory at the time of normal probability change display, the player will notify that if there is a hold memory that is likely change in the first hold memory Therefore, the same effect as the first embodiment can be obtained.
Further, since the notification is made only when the winning display is performed with the probability variation symbol in the normal state, the type of the winning included in the first reserved memory is known only when the winning variation is displayed with the probability variation symbol. Therefore, it is possible to prevent a situation in which the player becomes too advantageous by viewing the first hold memory notification.
Since the player wants to know the information before the win is displayed, the player tries to fill the hold as much as possible, so during hot reach there is a tendency to stop firing and reduce the operation, but also prevent it There is also an effect that can be done.
In addition, when the special symbol 2 is preferentially changed, it can be performed without digestion in most cases other than the first change in the first reserved memory, so that it is possible to obtain a sufficient effect if only the amount held at the time of winning is known. I can do it.

  In this embodiment, the first hold memory is notified when the probability variation symbol is displayed. However, when the probability variation symbol is stored in the normal determination table until the symbol is displayed. You may be notified.

[Third embodiment]
Next, a third embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS.
In the second embodiment, when the probability variation symbol is displayed on the effect symbol display device, if there is hit information in the first reserved memory, the notification is made. However, in this embodiment, the notification is made during the special game. did. Other than this, the configuration is substantially the same as in the second embodiment. Therefore, like the second embodiment, the same reference numerals as those in the first embodiment are attached and the description thereof is omitted, and different points are described.

The diagram shown in FIG. 21 is a first hold notification determination process in the third embodiment.
When receiving the interval command in S755, the sub integrated control device 83 determines whether it is the seventh round (S1400). If it is the seventh round, it is determined whether or not to shift to the probable change state after completion of the special gaming state (S1405), and if it shifts, it is determined whether or not there is a flag in the first holding memory that is not 0. If the determination is affirmative (S1410), notification regarding the hit information included in the first hold storage is executed by the first hold notification process (S1415).

The diagram shown in FIG. 22 is a display example of the flow up to notification in the third embodiment.
(A) is a display example when the big hit symbol is confirmed and displayed.
(B) is a figure when it shifts from the big hit symbol stop to the special game state.
(C) is a figure when it shifts to the seventh round. Since the probability hold is included in the first reserved memory, a notification indicating that the probability change is included in the first hold number display unit 100 is performed.

The above is the configuration of the third embodiment. Since the first hold notification is performed at a predetermined number of rounds during the special game, the same effect as the first embodiment can be obtained.
Moreover, since it is displayed during the special game, only what is reserved and stored by the time it is notified is targeted, but depending on the number of rounds to be notified, the first reserved memory is almost full before notification. Therefore, the player is not forced to fill up, and only the information that is reserved and stored during the special game can be notified, so that the player does not become too advantageous.

In this embodiment, the notification is made in the seventh round in the special gaming state. However, the notification may be made at various round numbers without being fixed.
Moreover, it is good also as a structure which alert | reports that it is a probability change during a special game, and notifies a 1st holding | maintenance after alert | reporting that it is a probability change.
Furthermore, the notification per first hold and the probability change notification during the special game may be used together, and can be used at various timings from the start to the end of the special game state.

[Fourth embodiment]
Next, a fourth embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS.
In the first, second, and third embodiments, the information on the hit hold memory received from the main control device 80 is managed by the sub integrated control device 83 and the first hold notification is made. In this embodiment, the main control device is used. A configuration is adopted in which a command is transmitted so that the sub integrated control device 83 is notified when 80 manages and notifies the hold information. Other than this, the configuration is substantially the same as in the first, second, and third embodiments. Therefore, like the second and third embodiments, the same reference numerals as those in the first embodiment are attached and the description thereof is omitted, and different points are described.

The diagram shown in FIG. 23 is a start winning confirmation process in the fourth embodiment. Basically, it is the same as the first embodiment in FIG. 6, but the configuration is such that the result of the second winning / failing determination is not transmitted at the time of transmission of the first reserved number, and the main control device 80 is memorized. After the determination process (S115), it is determined whether the notification is made by the first hold notification determination process (S145), and a command is transmitted together with the information of the first hold number so as to notify if it is a notification scene. Therefore, it is not necessary to perform a process related to the first per-hold flag in the hold number update process as in the first embodiment, and a configuration in which only the hold number is updated may be used.
In addition, since the first hold notification determination process is also determined on the main control device 80 side, the sub integrated control device 83 side only notifies based on the command when receiving the notification command from the main control device 80.

  FIG. 24 shows a special game process in the fourth embodiment. This is also basically the same as the special game process of the first embodiment, but when a jackpot end command is transmitted (S785), a determination is made as to whether the first hold notification is executed as the first hold notification determination process (S790). Different.

  FIG. 25 shows the first hold notification determination process by the main controller 80 in the fourth embodiment. Main controller 80 determines whether or not there is a first reserved memory that is determined to be a hit by the second determination (S1500). If the determination is affirmative (S1500: YES), it is determined whether a probability change flag is set (S1505). If the probability change flag is set (S1505: YES), if the first hold per flag is a probability change (S1510: YES), a first hold probability change notification command is transmitted to the sub integrated control device 83 (S1515). If it is normal hit (S1510: NO), a first hold normal hit notification command is transmitted to the sub integrated control device 83 (S1520). Thereby, the sub integrated control device 83 can determine the information included in the hold.

  The above is the configuration in the fourth embodiment. By doing so, the main control device 80 manages the information in the hold memory, and transmits a notification command to the sub integrated control device 83 at the notification timing. Information can be notified.

  In the present embodiment, as in the first embodiment, the information of the first reserved memory is notified during the probability change state. However, as in the second and third embodiments, the notification is made when the winning symbol is determined or during the special game. Needless to say, it may be configured.

Opening extension means for changing the period or the number of times that the second starting port is in the open state after the jackpot gaming state ends;
In a gaming machine provided with a high probability state transition means for transitioning to a high probability state, the probability of hit determination by the success / failure determination means,
The winning value is set higher for the winning attributed to the second starting port than the winning attributed to the first starting port, and the success / failure determining means is stored in the first holding means. Second hold priority determination means for preferentially determining whether or not the random number for correct / invalid determination stored in the second hold means from the correct / incorrect determination of the random number for correct / incorrect determination.
A second success / failure determination means for performing the success / failure determination of the random number for determination of success / failure acquired at the time of winning a prize to the first start opening;
A first per-holding notification for notifying that the first holding means is determined to be a hit by the second hit / fail determining means when the high-probability state transition means and the opening extension means are operating or when the operation is confirmed. A gaming machine characterized by comprising means.   The first on-hold notification means determines the high probability per unit to shift to a high probability state after the big hit gaming state by the second hit / non-use determination means in the success / failure determination random number stored in the first hold means. A high-probability notification means that suggests a transition to a high-probability state if there is an error, and / or a normal notification means that suggests a transition to a normal state if there is a normal hit that does not shift to a high-probability state The gaming machine according to claim 1, further comprising:   The first holding hit notification means notifies that it is a hit even in a normal state when the second hit / fail judgment means determines that it is a hit even in a normal state. The gaming machine according to claim 1 or 2.
