It describes pachinko machines.

  However, in the pachinko gaming machines described in Patent Documents 1 and 2, whether or not it is easy to postpone the display of the winning lottery results at the present time, there is a possibility that the lottery results for which the display has been postponed is a win. Since it is not configured to infer whether it is high or not, it cannot give the player a sense of tension that a new jackpot will not be executed when the postponed display is released, Even with low pachinko machines, it was not possible to increase the player's willingness to play.

JP 2003-305212 A JP-A-9-294847

  The present invention has been made in view of such circumstances, and not only displays the lottery results in order of winning, but also has a high probability of postponing the display of the lottery results when the start condition is satisfied. Depending on whether it is in a low-probability state, the lottery result is displayed later, and when the predetermined release condition is satisfied, the lottery result that is delayed is displayed. It is possible to guess whether the lottery result is in a state of being further, or the possibility that the lottery result that has been postponed is likely to be a win, to increase the interest in the game, and the lottery result that has been postponed may be hit The aim is to increase the player's willingness to play and to improve the operation by making it seem that there is no.

Means for Solving the Problems and Effects of the Invention

  In order to solve the above problems, the present invention provides a lottery means for executing a lottery process based on a winning at a predetermined start port, and a storage having a holding area capable of storing lottery results by the lottery means up to a predetermined upper limit number. Means, a reading means for reading the lottery result stored in the holding area, a first display means for variably displaying a plurality of symbols, and displaying whether the lottery result read by the reading means, and a first display means. In a pachinko gaming machine comprising a game control means for executing a first jackpot game when displayed, it is a separate area from the holding area provided in the storage means, and the lottery result regardless of whether the lottery result is successful or not The stock area where the lottery result can be stored in order to delay the display of the lottery, and when the lottery result by the lottery means is win, the probability that the lottery result is stored in the stock area is high Stock state setting means for setting any one of a high stock state and a low stock state with a low probability of storing the lottery result in the stock area compared to the high stock state, and the current stock state is a high stock state First informing means for informing the player to infer whether the state is in a low stock state or a low stock state, and the lottery result by the lottery means based on the stock state set by the stock state setting means in the stock area Stock determination means for determining whether or not to store, stock execution means for storing the lottery result in the stock area according to the determination result by the stock determination means, and a second for informing the number of lottery results stored in the stock area It is determined whether or not to read out the lottery result stored in the stock area based on the notification means and a predetermined stock release condition. Stock cancellation determination means, stock cancellation means for reading the lottery result stored in the stock area according to the determination result by the stock cancellation determination means, and second display means for displaying whether the lottery result read by the stock cancellation means is correct The game control means executes the second big hit game when the winning display is made on the second display means.

  In the pachinko gaming machine of the present invention, when the lottery result by the lottery means is a win, the lottery result is stored in the stock area with a high probability of storing the lottery result in the stock area, and the lottery result is stored in the stock area. One of the stock states with a low stock state with a low probability of being set is set. Then, information for informing the player whether the current stock state is the high stock state or the low stock state is notified. When the stock determination condition based on the stock state set in this way is satisfied, the lottery result is stored in a stock area different from the reserved area regardless of whether the lottery result is successful or not, and the display is delayed. The number of lottery results stored in the stock area is notified by the second notification means. When a predetermined stock cancellation condition is satisfied, the lottery result stored in the stock area is read out, and whether or not the read lottery result is correct is displayed on the second display means. When the lottery result for winning is included in the stock area and the winning display is made on the second display means, the second big hit game is executed.

  This allows the player to guess which stock status is currently based on the notified information, and based on that guess, the player may win the lottery result To come to guess. For this reason, if it is highly probable that the winning lottery result has been postponed, if the player speculates, the game can be made to continue until the lottery result is displayed. The game motivation of the person can be increased and the operation can be improved.

  In this case, the second notification means can display a specific symbol corresponding to one or more lottery results stored in the stock area, and the lottery result stored in the stock area can be displayed according to the number of the specific symbols displayed. The number may be notified, and the player may be made to guess whether or not the lottery result associated with the specific symbol is included in the display form of the displayed specific symbol.

  According to this, the player can guess whether or not the lottery result is included in the lottery result stored in the stock area, using the specific symbol notified by the second notification means as a powerful judgment material. it can. Therefore, the player's willingness to play can be improved more favorably.

  The second jackpot game may be set to a jackpot game that is more advantageous to the player than the first jackpot game.

  If the high stock state continues for a long time, the lottery results per hit are likely to be stocked. Then, when the stock is released, the second big hit game that is advantageous to the player compared to the first big hit game is continuously executed. The possibility increases. For this reason, if the player guesses that there are multiple hits in the lottery results stocked, the game cannot be stopped, so that the operation can be further improved.

  The main control unit 100 is assigned a CPU (Central Processing Unit) 101 that is an arithmetic device, a ROM (Read Only Memory) 102 that is a read-only storage device that stores various programs and determination tables, a work area, various counters, and the like. A RAM (Random Access Memory) 103 which is a readable / writable storage device, an I / O (Input / Output) 104 which is an input / output interface, and the like are provided, which are connected to each other via a bus (not shown). Yes. Each of the other control units also includes a CPU and a memory, which are omitted in FIG. Each control unit is supplied with power of a predetermined voltage generated by the power supply unit 114 via the main control unit 100. The main control unit 100 corresponds to lottery means, reading means, game control means, stock state setting means, stock determination means, stock execution means, stock release determination means, and stock release means of the present invention.

  The sub-control unit 111 causes the amplifier / speaker 121 (see FIG. 1) to output sound according to a command input from the main control unit 100 and controls the lighting / extinguishing of the decorative lamps 122. Further, the sub control unit 111 outputs a command to the display control unit 115 in accordance with an instruction from the main control unit 100. That is, the main control unit 100 causes the special figure display unit 12a to execute the change display and stop display of the special figure via the sub control unit 111 and the display control unit 115, and the stock number display unit 12b sets the stock number. Correspondingly, the stock symbol update display is executed, and the stock special diagram display unit 12c executes the stock special symbol fluctuation display and stop display. The main control unit 100 also functions as display control means.

  The payout control unit 112 controls the payout device 123 according to the prize ball payout signal input from the main control unit 100. As a result, a predetermined number of prize balls are paid out to the upper plate 5 for the player. In response to the player's operation of the handle device 4, the launch control unit 113 operates the launch device 124 provided corresponding to the handle device 4 and directs the ball prepared on the upper plate 5 toward the game area 3 a.

  FIG. 3 shows an example of the contents stored in the RAM 103. The RAM 103 stores timers and counters for time management such as jackpots and special figure fluctuations. The RAM 103 includes, for example, a special-purpose random number counter 103a, a design random number counter 103b, a state random number counter 103c, a stock random number counter 103d, a special figure holding storage area 103e, a special figure stock storage area 103f, and a stock state flag storage area 103g. A gaming state flag storage area 103h, a standby flag storage area 103i, a continuous count storage area 103j, and the like are provided. The RAM 103 corresponds to the storage unit of the present invention.

  The value of the special figure random number counter 103a varies, for example, between 0 and 159 (add 1 at every predetermined time). When a winning to the start winning device 21 is detected, a value at the detection timing is extracted from the special-purpose random number counter 103a. The extracted special figure random number value is stored in the special figure holding storage area 103e as a special figure holding, except for the case where it is stored in the special drawing stock storage area 103f as a stock as will be described later. In the special figure hold storage area 103e, a plurality (for example, an upper limit of 4) of special figure hold can be stored. The special figure holding storage area 103e corresponds to the holding area of the present invention.

  The value of the design random number counter 103b fluctuates between 0 and 799, for example (1 is added every predetermined time). When winning the start winning device 21, a value is also extracted from the design random number counter 103b, and based on the extracted design random number value, a stop symbol (combination of symbols to be stopped display, reach at the time of losing or non-reach symbol) , Reach symbol at jackpot time, probability variation or non-probability variation jackpot symbol) is determined. Note that the symbol random number value is also stored in the special figure reservation storage area 103e as the special figure reservation, together with the special figure random number value, except for the case where it is stored in the special figure stock storage area 103f as stock.

  The value of the state random number counter 103c fluctuates between 0 and 99, for example (add 1 at every predetermined time). At the time of winning the start winning device 21, a value is also extracted from the state random number counter 103c. Based on the extracted state random number value, the stock state is maintained in the low stock state, changed to the high stock state, It is decided whether to maintain the stock state or change to the low stock state. Here, the high stock state means a state where it is easy to stock the lottery result when the lottery result is a win, that is, a stock state with a high probability of storing the win lottery result in the special figure stock storage area 103f. The stock state means a state in which it is difficult to stock the winning lottery result, that is, a stock state having a lower probability of storing the winning lottery result in the special stock storage area 103f than in the high stock state. The state random number value is also stored in the special figure reservation storage area 103e together with the special figure random number value and the symbol random number value as a special figure reservation, except when stored in the special figure stock storage area 103f as stock.

  The value of the stock random number counter 103d fluctuates between 0 and 99, for example (1 is added every predetermined time). When winning the start winning device 21, a value is also extracted from the stock random number counter 103d, and based on the extracted stock random value, the special figure random number value, the design random number value, the state random number value, and the stock random number value are specified. It is determined whether or not to store in the figure stock storage area 103f. The stock random number value is also stored in the special figure reservation storage area 103e as a special figure reservation, together with the special figure random value, the design random number value, and the state random number value, except when the stock random number value is stored in the special figure stock storage area 103f as stock. .

  In the special figure stock storage area 103f, a plurality of (for example, an upper limit of 100) lottery results (special figure random value, symbol random value, state random value, stock random value) can be stored. The lottery results stored in the special figure stock storage area 103f may be stocked, and the number of lottery results stored in the special figure stock storage area 103f is referred to as the stock number. Further, the lottery result stored in the special figure stock storage area 103f is also referred to as a lottery result for stock, and the lottery result read from the special figure stock storage area 103f when the stock cancellation condition is satisfied is stored in the stock. It is also called the lottery result when is canceled. The special figure random number value and the design random number value correspond to the lottery result of the present invention, and the special figure stock storage area 103f corresponds to the stock area of the present invention.

  The stock state flag is a flag indicating the stock state, and is set to 0 when the low stock state is set based on the state random number value extracted from the state random number counter 103c, and is set to 1 when the high stock state is set. Is set. When the pachinko gaming machine 1 is started, the stock state flag is 0, that is, the low stock state.

  The gaming state flag is a flag indicating the gaming state of the pachinko gaming machine 1, and is set to 0 when in the normal state, set to 1 when in the probability variation state, set to 2 when in the time reduction state, It is set to 3 when it is a big hit state, and is set to 4 when it is a second big hit state. Here, the first jackpot state means a jackpot state set based on the special figure hold special figure random value read from the special figure hold storage area 103e, and the second jackpot state means a special figure stock storage. It means a jackpot state set based on the special figure random number value of the lottery result read out from the area 103f.

  The standby flag is normally set to 0, the stock is released during the first or second jackpot game, and is set to 1 when the lottery result is released, based on the released jackpot lottery result. Keep 1 until the second jackpot game is started. When the standby flag is set to 1, the stock release prohibition state in which the lottery result cannot be read from the special figure stock storage area 103f is entered.

  Although not shown in the figure, the RAM 103 stores the general-purpose random number counter similar to the special-purpose random number counter 103a and the general-purpose random number value extracted from the general-purpose random number counter when winning the passing gate 24. An ordinary map storage area is also provided for storing as a diagram reservation. The RAM 103 also has new values such as special figure hold read from the special figure hold storage area 103e, lottery results read from the special figure stock storage area 103f, and general figure hold read from the general figure hold storage area. A storage area for temporarily storing the data until it is read is also provided.

  Next, an outline of the flow of games (gameability) in the pachinko gaming machine 1 will be described with reference to FIGS.

  When the ball passes through the passage gate 24, the main control unit 100 determines the current value from the random number counter for ordinary maps if there are three or fewer suspensions in response to detection of the balls by the gate passage detector 134. The extracted ordinary random number value is stored as an ordinary figure hold in the ordinary figure storage area of the RAM 103. When it is possible to start a change of a new figure (when the figure is not changing and the electric winning of the start winning device 21 is not in operation), if the figure hold is stored, the oldest figure hold Is read and a hit determination is performed. The read normal figure random number value of the normal figure hold is the normal figure determination table (normal figure winning probability: 1/100) in the normal state, and the short time figure determination table (normally in the short-time state or the probable state). Compared to the winning value of the figure winning probability: 99/100). Based on the result of the hit determination, the usual figure change (LED blinking of the usual figure display unit 25) is started. In addition, the process which extracts a value from the random number counter for normal maps, and performs the hit determination of the extracted normal random number value is equivalent to the lottery process of a normal map.

  When the judgment result of the ordinary figure is a win, the LED of the ordinary figure display unit 25 is turned on when the fluctuation time (30 seconds in the normal state or the big hit state, 1 second in the short time state or the probable state) has elapsed, The solenoid 141 is excited to open the electric chew. After a predetermined time (0.1 seconds in the normal state, 1.5 seconds three times in the time-short state or the probability variation state), the start winning device 21 is closed. In addition, when the usual figure determination result is lost, the LED of the common figure display unit 25 is turned off when the fluctuation time has elapsed.

  The ball is awarded to the start winning device 21, and the main control unit 100 instructs the payout control unit 112 to pay out three prize balls in response to the detection of the ball by the start winning detector 131 (start winning prize). If the number of special figure reservations (four at the maximum) stored in the special figure storage area 103e is three or less, the special figure random number counter 103a, the design random number counter 103b, the state random number counter 103c, and the stock random number counter Each current value is extracted from 103d.

  The main control unit 100 (stock state setting means) compares the state random number value extracted from the state random number counter 103c with a stock state change value (for example, 0), and if they match, the stock state in the stock state flag storage area 103g Change the stock status by changing the flag. The stock state shifts between a low stock state (stock state flag: 0) and a high stock state (stock state flag: 1) (stock state change rate: 1/100).

  The main control unit 100 (lottery means) determines whether the special figure random number value extracted according to the current gaming state is correct. More specifically, the extracted special figure random number value is compared with the winning value set in the special figure determination table, and if they match, it is determined whether or not it is a hit. The gaming state flag in the gaming state flag storage area 103h is confirmed, and if it is in the normal state (gaming state flag: 0) or the short time state (gaming state flag: 2), the normal special figure determination table (special figure winning probability: 1 / 80) (for example, 0 (probability change big hit), 1 (non-probability change big hit)) and a probability change state (game state flag: 1), a probability change special figure determination table (special figure winning probability: 1/40) ) (For example, 0 to 1 (probable variation jackpot), 2 to 3 (non-probable variation jackpot)). Note that the process of extracting a value from the special figure random number counter 103a and determining whether or not the extracted special figure random number value is correct corresponds to the lottery process of the present invention as well as the special figure lottery process.

  Whether the main control unit 100 (stock determination unit) stocks the lottery result including each random number value in the special stock storage area 103f based on the determination result of the main control unit 100 (lottery unit) and the current stock state. Determine whether or not. Specifically, when the stock status flag in the stock status flag storage area 103g is confirmed and the current low stock status (stock status flag: 0) and the determination result of the special drawing lottery is successful, When the numerical value matches a stock value (for example, 0 to 29) in the stock determination table, it is determined that the lottery result is stocked (stock winning probability: 3/10). In addition, when the current low stock state (stock state flag: 0) is determined to be lost in the special drawing lottery process, the stock random number value matches the stock value (for example, 0 to 9) in the stock determination table. In such a case, it is determined that the lottery result is stocked (stock winning probability: 1/10).

  On the other hand, when the main control unit 100 (stock determination means) is currently in the high stock state (stock state flag: 1) and the determination result of the lottery process of the special figure is a hit, the stock random number value is stored in the stock determination table. It is determined that the lottery result is stocked when it matches a stock value (for example, 0 to 89) (stock winning probability: 9/10). Also, if the judgment result of the special drawing lottery process is lost when the current high stock state (stock state flag: 1), the stock random number value matches the stock value (for example, 0 to 9) in the stock judgment table. In such a case, it is determined that the lottery result is stocked (stock winning probability: 1/10). Note that the process of extracting a value from the stock random number counter 103d and determining whether or not the extracted stock random number value is correct corresponds to the stock lottery process, and the determination condition (whether or not it matches the stock value) is the stock condition. It corresponds to.

  The main control unit 100 (stock execution unit) stocks the lottery result in the special figure stock storage area 103f based on the stock determination result by the main control unit 100 (stock determination unit). When the lottery result is stocked in the special figure stock storage area 103f, the main control unit 100 determines a stock symbol according to whether the lottery result is successful or not, and additionally displays the determined stock symbol on the stock number display unit 12b. When the lottery result is a win, for example, 30% is vertical stripes, 20% is horizontal stripes, 50% is plain, and when the lottery result is lost, for example, 10% is vertical stripes, 5% is horizontal stripes, and 85% is plain. The display symbol distribution ratio is set so that

  As described above, the upper limit of the number of stocks in the special figure stock storage area 103f is set to 100. Therefore, when the number of stock reaches 100, the main control unit 100 (stock execution means) does not stock the lottery result in the special figure stock storage area 103f and stores the special figure reservation as a normal special figure hold. Store in the area 103e.

  Even when the main control unit 100 (stock determination unit) determines that the lottery result is not stocked in the special figure stock storage area 103f, the main control unit 100 stores the lottery result in the special figure reservation storage area 103e as a special figure hold. . When the main control unit 100 (reading unit) can start a change of a new special figure (when the special figure is not changing and not being a big hit), the special figure hold is stored in the special figure hold storage area 103e. Then, the special figure hold is read out in the stored order, and the read special figure hold is deleted from the special figure hold storage area 103e.

  The main control unit 100 determines a special symbol stop symbol, a variation time, a variation pattern, and the like based on the determination result and the symbol random number value based on the read special symbol pending special symbol random value. In accordance with an instruction from the main control unit 100, the special-figure display unit 12a of the liquid crystal display device 12 starts variable display with three symbol sequences (for example, three-digit numbers each represented by “1” to “8”). Then, after displaying with the determined variation pattern, the symbols are stopped in the order of left, right, and middle, and the determination result is displayed by the combination of the symbols that are stopped and displayed. If the determination result is a jackpot, the same jackpot symbol is stopped and displayed on the left, middle and right. In addition, since it is configured to select from common jackpot symbols regardless of whether the judgment result is a probabilistic jackpot or a non-probable jackpot, it is a big hit whether the player wins the probable or non-probable jackpot It cannot be distinguished from the symbol.

  If the determination result is a jackpot (the jackpot allocation ratio is, for example, probability variation jackpot: 50%, non-probability variation jackpot: 50%), the special symbol display unit 12a stops and displays the jackpot symbol. The game state flag in the game state flag storage area 103h is changed to 3 (first big hit state). The main control unit 100 (game control means) checks the game state flag in the game state flag storage area 103h, and executes the first big hit game when the game state flag is 3 (first big win state). In the first jackpot game, the operation process (round process) is repeated 5 times (5 rounds) when the large winning device 22 is opened and 10 are won or 30 seconds pass. When one prize is won in the big prize winning device 22, 15 prize balls are paid out.

  The main control unit 100 (stock release determination means) checks the state flag in the gaming state flag storage area 103h and determines whether or not the gaming state flag is 3, that is, the first jackpot state. If the lottery result is stocked in the special figure stock storage area 103f based on the determination result (execution of the first jackpot game) by the main control unit 100 (stock cancellation determination unit), the main control unit 100 (stock cancellation unit) The stock is released during the first big hit game, that is, the lottery results are read in order from the oldest lot stocked in the special figure stock storage area 103f. The main control unit 100 sequentially displays the read lottery results for the stock on the stock special map display unit 12c (the variation time for one lottery result is about 0.5 seconds, for example), and the stock number display unit 12b Stock symbols are updated and displayed (the stock symbols are erased one by one and the display position of the stock symbols is shifted each time the lottery result is read).

  The main control unit 100 (stock canceling means) reads the lottery results for the stock one by one until the jackpot game ends if there are no lottery winners in the stock lottery results. On the other hand, the main control unit 100 (stock canceling means) reads one stock at a time up to the jackpot lottery result if there is one in the lottery results stocked that wins the jackpot. When the main control unit 100 reads out the jackpot lottery result that has been stocked and stops displaying the jackpot symbol on the stock special chart display unit 12c, the main control unit 100 sets the standby flag in the standby flag storage area 103i to 1 (second jackpot waiting) ), And the subsequent lottery result is not displayed on the stock special figure display unit 12c, and waits until the current jackpot game ends.

  When ending the first jackpot game that has been executed, the main control unit 100 checks the waiting flag, and if it is 1, changes the game state flag in the game state flag storage area 103h to 4 (second jackpot state). . The main control unit 100 (game control means) checks the state flag in the game state flag storage area 103h, and executes the second big hit game if the state flag is 4 (second big hit state). In the second jackpot game, the operation process (round process) that closes when the grand prize device 22 is opened and 10 pieces are won or 30 seconds elapses is repeated 15 times (15 rounds). When one prize is won in the big prize winning device 22, 15 prize balls are paid out. That is, the second jackpot game is set to a jackpot game that is more advantageous to the player than the first jackpot game.

  The main control unit 100 (stock release determination means) checks the status flag in the gaming status flag storage area 103h and determines whether the gaming status flag is 3, in addition to the gaming status flag being 4, that is, the second It is also determined whether it is a big hit state. The main control unit 100 (stock release unit) is based on the determination result (execution of the second jackpot game) based on the determination result (execution of the second jackpot game) by the main control unit 100 (stock release determination unit). If the lottery result is stocked in the special figure stock storage area 103f, the stock is released during the second big hit game. Accordingly, the main control unit 100 sequentially displays the read lottery results for the stock on the special stock display unit 12c, and updates and displays the stock symbols of the stock number display unit 12b. In other words, in this embodiment, regardless of whether the game is a first jackpot game or a second jackpot game, the fact that the jackpot game is executed is a stock release condition for stock.

  If there are many lottery results stocked in the special figure stock storage area 103f, there may be a case where all the lottery results stocked cannot be displayed on the stock special figure display unit 12c during one big hit game. In this way, the lottery result that is not displayed in the single jackpot game or the lottery result that is stocked after the lottery result that is a big hit is not displayed on the special stock display section 12c for the next stock release condition. Is stocked in the special figure stock storage area 103f until is established (winning win).

  If the jackpot symbol is not displayed on the stock special chart display unit 12c at the end of the first jackpot game or the second jackpot game, the main control unit 100 stores the game state flag storage area 103h after the probability change jackpot is finished. The gaming state flag is changed to 1, and the gaming state is changed to a probable state. Thereafter, the main control unit 100 makes a jackpot determination with reference to the probability variation special figure determination table. On the other hand, the main control unit 100 changes the gaming state flag in the gaming state flag storage area 103h to 2 after the end of the non-probability change jackpot, and sets the gaming state to the shortened state. Thereafter, the main control unit 100 makes a jackpot determination with reference to the normal special figure determination table. Both the probable change state and the short time state continue until the symbol variation of 100 times (the lottery result of the loss is 100 times) ends or a new jackpot is won, whichever comes first. In the probability variation state and the short time state, it is impossible for the player to determine which game state the player is in. The main control unit 100 changes the state flag to 0 and returns the gaming state to the normal state when 100 symbol variations have been completed in the probability changing state or the short time state.

  The main control unit 100 instructs the special figure display unit 12a to display some character and various backgrounds, and guesses to the player whether the current stock state is a high stock state or a low stock state. It is comprised so that it can be made to. While referring to such a display, if the player is currently in a high stock state and the lottery result is stocked, it is stocked compared to the case in which the player is in a low stock state. It is expected that the lottery result is likely to be a win. Furthermore, if the display form of the stock symbol additionally displayed on the stock number display portion 12b corresponding to the lottery result is a vertical stripe pattern, it is possible to deepen confidence that the prediction is likely to be made.

  Compared to the case of a big hit with a special special figure hold (first jackpot), the lottery game that is released when the stocked lottery results are canceled (second jackpot) will have more balls in the jackpot game. Since it can be acquired, the player who has predicted that the lottery result has been stocked will continue to play until the stock of the lottery result is released.

  In the high stock state, 90% of the specification is stocked, so it is unlikely that the stock cancellation condition is satisfied. In other words, it is unlikely that the special figure will be a big hit. Therefore, if the high stock state continues for a long time, a plurality of winning lottery results are likely to be stocked, and when the stock is released, there is a high possibility that a big hit with a lot of balls (second big hit) will be executed continuously. In particular, if the probability variation state is reached after completion of the probability variation big hit and the state is a high stock state, a plurality of winning results may be stocked while the symbol variation is performed 100 times. On the other hand, in the low stock state, 70% of the winning spec is stored in the special figure holding storage area 103e without being stocked, and the lottery result is immediately displayed on the special figure display unit 12a to be a big hit. Therefore, even if the low stock state continues for a long time, it is difficult for a plurality of lottery results to be stocked.

  The stock ratio of the lottery result is approximately 1/10, but after the jackpot game (the first or second jackpot game) is finished, a new jackpot game is not started, and the symbol variation is performed 100 times. When 12 to 13 or more lottery results are stocked, the player is expected to be in a probable state and a high stock state. Therefore, even if a new jackpot game is not started after that, it is difficult to stop the game because it is predicted that there are multiple winning lots in the stock lottery results. Thereby, the operation of the gaming machine can be improved. If the player's reading is correct, a large jackpot can be obtained with a single jackpot.

  FIG. 7 is an explanatory diagram showing a display example in the present embodiment. In the display example shown in FIG. 7, the special figure hold read from the special figure hold storage area 103e results in a big hit (first big hit), the stock is released at the start of the big hit game, and the lottery result for the released stock is a big win 3 shows the display process in the special figure hold display unit 12a, the stock number display unit 12b, and the stock special display unit 12c in the liquid crystal display device 12 when the lottery results are included.

  When the jackpot symbol is stopped and displayed on the special figure display unit 12a (a.), The game state flag is set to 3 and the first jackpot game is started. During the first jackpot game, the symbol variation for the stock lottery result read from the special symbol stock storage area 103f is started in the special symbol display unit 12c, and the stock symbol of the stock number display unit 12b is updated and displayed ( b.). The jackpot symbol displayed on the special figure display unit 12a is reduced and displayed in a partial display area (for example, the upper left area) of the special figure display unit 12a.

  If the lottery result for the stock that has been read out is lost, the stock special symbol display unit 12c immediately stops changing after the symbol changes for a moment (c.), And the symbol change for the next stock starts. At the same time, the stock symbol in the stock number display section 12b is updated and displayed (d.). Even if the lottery result for the read stock is lost, a longer variation time may be set over a plurality of rounds, and the symbol variation according to the variation time starts in the stock special figure display unit 12c. (E.), The left and right end symbols are stopped and displayed to reach (f.), And a lost symbol is displayed when the set fluctuation time has elapsed (g.).

  The stock special symbol display unit 12c starts the symbol variation for the next stock, and the stock symbol of the stock number display unit 12b is updated and displayed (h.). After that, based on the lottery results for the stocks read out in sequence, the losing symbol is stopped and displayed (i.), The symbol variation for the next stock is started, and the stock symbol in the stock number display section 12b is updated. Is displayed (j.). At this time, if the lottery result for the read stock is a big win, the stock special symbol display unit 12c performs symbol variation in which a longer variation time is set over a plurality of rounds, and the left and right end symbols are displayed. Stop is displayed and reach (k.), And the jackpot symbol is stopped and displayed when the set fluctuation time has elapsed (l.).

  When the jackpot symbol is stopped and displayed on the stock special chart display unit 12c, the standby flag is changed to 1, and the lottery result for the new stock is not read out until the currently executed jackpot game ends. Wait while displaying the jackpot symbol. When the jackpot game is over, the special figure display unit 12a displays that it has become a continuous chain (m.), And the game state flag is changed to 4. When the jackpot symbol stopped and displayed in the stock special chart display unit 12c is enlarged and displayed over the display area of the special chart display unit 12a (n. To o.), And it is displayed that a new jackpot is won. (O.), The second jackpot game is started (p.). Even during the second jackpot game, the symbol variation for the lottery result for the stock is started in the stock special symbol display unit 12c, and the stock symbol in the stock number display unit 12b is updated and displayed.

  Next, specific processing of the game executed in the pachinko gaming machine 1 will be described according to the flowcharts shown in FIGS. 4 to 6 are stored in the ROM 102 of the main control unit 100, and the CPU 101 of the main control unit 100 is configured to be repeatedly executed at a predetermined timing.

  FIG. 4 is a flowchart showing the start winning process. The main control unit 100 instructs the payout control unit 112 to pay out three prize balls in response to the detection of a ball by the start winning detector 131 (S11: YES). Next, the main control unit 100 determines whether or not the number of special figure reservations stored in the special figure storage area 103e has reached four (S12). If it is determined that the number of special figure hold is 3 or less (S12: YES), the current value is extracted from the special figure random number counter 103a, the symbol random number counter 103b, the state random number counter 103c, and the stock random number counter 103d (S13). ).

  The main control unit 100 determines whether the state random number value extracted from the state random number counter 103c matches the stock state change value 0 (S14). When it is determined that the state random number value matches the stock state change value 0 (S14: YES), the stock state is changed (S15). In this case, if the stock state flag in the stock state flag storage area 103g is 0 (low stock state), it is changed to 1 (high stock state), and if the stock state flag is 1 (high stock state), it is 0 (low stock state). Status). If it is determined that the state random number value does not match the stock state change value 0 (S14: NO), the process of step S15 is skipped. In this case, the stock status flag in the stock status flag storage area 103g is maintained at the currently set value.

  Next, the main control unit 100 instructs the sub control unit 111 to display a character or the like that causes the player to guess the current stock state on the special figure display unit 12a. In the special figure display unit 12a, an effect is started in accordance with the display control command received via the sub control unit 111 and the display control unit 115.

  Next, the main control unit 100 checks the gaming state flag in the gaming state flag storage area 103h, and determines whether or not the special figure random number value is correct based on the current gaming state. Further, the stock state flag in the stock state flag storage area 103g is confirmed, and the lottery result composed of each random number value based on the current stock state, the special figure random value determination result, and the stock random number value is stored in the special figure stock storage area 103f. It is determined whether or not to stock (S17, S18).

  When determining that the lottery result is not stocked (S18: NO), the main control unit 100 stores the lottery result in the special figure reservation storage area 103e as a normal special figure reservation (S20). On the other hand, when it is determined that the lottery result is stocked (S18: YES), if the number of stocks in the special figure stock storage area 103f has not reached 100, the lottery result is stored in the special figure stock storage area 103f. (S19: YES, S21). On the other hand, even if it is determined that the lottery result is to be stocked, if the number of stocks in the special figure stock storage area 103f has reached 100, the lottery result is regarded as a normal special figure hold and the special figure hold storage area 103e. (S18: YES, S19: NO, S20). When the number of special figure hold increases, one LED (hold lamp) of the special figure hold display section 13 is lit up (for example, in order from the left), and when the number of stock increases, the stock of the stock number display section 12b A new symbol is added and displayed.

  The main control unit 100 executes the special figure changing process in parallel with the start winning process. In this special figure variation process, the state flag in the gaming state flag storage area 103h is 0 to 2, that is, the gaming state is a normal state, a probable variation state, or a short time state, and the symbol variation is stopped in the special figure display unit 12a. The oldest special figure hold is read from the special figure hold storage area 103e on the condition that the special figure hold storage area 103e stores the special figure hold. Then, whether or not the read special figure random number value with special figure hold is determined is determined, and a stop symbol, a variation time, a variation pattern, and the like are determined based on the determination result and the symbol random number value. The main control unit 100 starts the fluctuation of the special figure, and instructs the sub-control part 111 to stop the fluctuation of the special figure in the special figure display unit 12a after a predetermined fluctuation time has elapsed. The special figure display unit 12a stops the fluctuation of the special figure and displays the designated stop symbol. For example, when the special figure lottery result is a jackpot, a special jackpot symbol is displayed on the special figure display unit 12a, and when the special figure lottery result is a loser, a lost symbol is displayed on the special figure display unit 12a. If the determination result of the special drawing lottery is a big hit, the main control unit 100 changes the state flag in the gaming state flag storage area 103h to 3 (first big hit state).

  FIG. 5 is a flowchart showing the jackpot process. The main control unit 100 checks the gaming state flag in the gaming state flag storage area 103h and determines whether or not the gaming state flag is 3 or 4, that is, the first or second jackpot state (S31). If it is the first or second big hit state (S31: YES), 1 is added to the number of rounds (not shown) stored in the RAM 103 (S32), and the big prize solenoid 142 is excited to thereby win a big prize device. 22 is released (S33). Thereby, the winning of the ball to the big winning device 22 becomes possible.

  Whether 10 balls, which is the number of balls that can be won in one round, are awarded to the big winning device 22 (S34: YES), or 30 seconds, which is the maximum opening time of one round after the big winning device 22 is in an open state. When either one of them has elapsed (S35: YES), the main control unit 100 closes the big prize device 22 by de-energizing the big prize solenoid 142 (S36). Thereby, it becomes impossible to win a ball to the big winning device 22.

  In the case of the first big hit state (S37: YES), if the number of rounds has not reached 5 which is the maximum number of rounds (S38: NO), this process is once ended and executed again, and the number of rounds is 5 Repeat this process until. Similarly, in the case of the second big hit state (S37: NO), if the number of rounds has not reached 15 which is the maximum number of rounds (S47: NO), this processing is once ended and executed again, and the round This process is repeated until the number reaches 15. When the number of rounds reaches 5 which is the maximum number of rounds at the first jackpot (S38: YES) or when the number of rounds reaches 15 which is the maximum number of rounds at the second jackpot (S47: YES) Reset to 0 (S39). Thereafter, the main control unit 100 checks the standby flag in the standby flag storage area 103i, and determines whether or not the standby flag is 1 (waiting for the second jackpot) (S40).

  As described above, if the lottery results read from the special stock storage area 103f are all lost in the first or second jackpot game and all the lottery results are lost, the waiting flag is maintained at 0, and the jackpot lottery result When is read, the standby flag is changed to 1 (second big hit standby state). Therefore, if there is no winning jackpot in the lottery results whose stock has been released and the standby flag is 0 (S40: NO), the second jackpot game is not executed after the end of the jackpot game. When winning the probable jackpot and executing the first or second jackpot game (S41: YES), the game state flag in the game state flag storage area 103h is set to 2 (short time state) (S42), When the first or second jackpot game is executed by winning (S41: NO), the game state flag in the game state flag storage area 103h is changed to 1 (probability change state) (S43), and the continuous number storage area The continuation count of 103j is set to 100 (S44). Thereafter, the standby flag is maintained at 0 (S45), and the jackpot processing is terminated.

  On the other hand, when the waiting flag is changed to 1 by winning the jackpot in the lottery result in which the stock is released during the jackpot game (S40: YES), the second jackpot game is executed after the jackpot game is over. Therefore, the gaming state flag in the gaming state flag storage area 103h is changed to 4 (second big hit waiting state) (S46). Thereafter, the processing of steps S41 to S44 is skipped, the standby flag is changed to 0, and the big hit game is once ended. Therefore, in this case, after ending the first or second jackpot game that has been executed, the second jackpot game is subsequently started (S31: YES).

  FIG. 6 is a flowchart showing the release variation process. The main control unit 100 checks the gaming state flag in the gaming state flag storage area 103h, and determines whether or not the gaming state flag is 3 or 4, that is, the first or second jackpot state (S51). If the game state flag is 3 or 4 (S51: YES), the standby flag in the standby flag storage area 103i is checked to determine whether the standby flag is 0, that is, whether the stock is released (S52). If the standby flag is 0, the lottery result for the oldest stock is provided on the condition that the symbol variation is stopped in the stock special figure display unit 12c and the lottery result is stocked in the special figure stock storage area 103f. Is deleted from the special figure stock storage area 103f (S52, S53, S54: YES, S55). At this time, the stock symbol of the stock number display section 12b in the liquid crystal display device 12 is updated and displayed.

  Next, whether or not the special figure random number value related to the read lottery result is determined is determined, and a stop symbol, a variation time, a variation pattern, and the like are determined based on the symbol random number value related to the lottery result (S56). The main control unit 100 starts changing the special figure for the stock (S57). That is, a special symbol variation timer (not shown) in the RAM 103 is started to be counted, and the sub control unit 111 is instructed to start symbol variation on the stock special symbol display unit 12c. The stock special figure display unit 12c starts the fluctuation of the special figure according to the display control command received via the sub control unit 111 and the display control unit 115.

  When the fluctuation time has elapsed (S58: YES), the main control unit 100 stops the fluctuation of the special figure for the stock (S59). That is, the count of a special figure variation timer (not shown) in the RAM 103 is stopped and reset, and the sub-control unit 111 is instructed to stop the fluctuation of the special figure in the stock special figure display unit 12c. The stock special figure display unit 12c stops the fluctuation of the special figure according to the display control command received via the sub control unit 111 and the display control unit 115, and displays the instructed stop symbol. For example, when the result of the lottery process for stock is a big hit, the big hit symbol is displayed on the special stock display portion 12c. When the result of the lottery process for stock is lost, the lost symbol is displayed on the stock special figure display section 12d.

  If the lottery result for the read stock is lost (S60: NO), this process is once ended, and the lottery result for the next stock is read and a new symbol variation process is repeated. If the lottery result for the read stock has been won in the jackpot (S60: YES), the main control unit 100 changes the standby flag in the standby flag storage area 103i to 1, and thereafter lottery for a new stock. Wait until the current jackpot game ends without reading the result. When the game state flag in the game state flag storage area 103h is not 3 or 4 (first or second jackpot state) (S51: NO), or when the standby flag in the standby flag storage area 103i is not 0 (stock release state) (S52: NO), if the symbol special symbol display unit 12c is changing the symbol (S53: NO), or if the lottery result is not stocked in the special symbol stock storage area 103f (S54: NO) End the process.

  As is apparent from the above description, in this embodiment, either the high stock state or the low stock state is set based on the state random number value extracted from the state random number counter 103c. A character or the like for causing the player to guess whether the current stock state is a high stock state or a low stock state is displayed on the special figure display unit 12a of the liquid crystal display device 12. Whether the lottery result is stocked in the special figure stock storage area 103f different from the special figure holding storage area 103e based on the determination result of the special figure random number extracted according to the current gaming state and the current stock state If the stock condition is satisfied (determined to be stocked), the lottery result is stored in the special figure stock storage area 103f regardless of whether the lottery result is successful or not, and the display is delayed. The number of lottery results stored in the special figure stock storage area 103f is displayed on the stock number display section 12b of the liquid crystal display device 12 as the number of corresponding stock symbols. When the stock release condition is satisfied with the stock win condition being the winning of the jackpot, the lottery result stored in the special figure stock storage area 103f is read, and whether the read lottery result is the stock of the liquid crystal display device 12 It is displayed on the special map display unit 12c. When the special figure stock storage area 103f includes a lottery result that is a big hit, if the fact that the big hit is displayed is displayed on the stock special figure display unit 12c of the liquid crystal display device 12, the second big hit game is executed. The

  As a result, the player guesses which stock state is currently based on the character or the like displayed on the special figure display unit 12a of the liquid crystal display device 12, and further displays the display based on the guess. The possibility that the lottery result that has been postponed is a win is estimated. For this reason, if it is highly probable that the winning lottery result has been postponed, if the player speculates, the game can be made to continue until the lottery result is displayed. The game motivation of the person can be increased and the operation can be improved.

  Also, the player uses the stock symbol displayed on the stock number display portion 12b of the liquid crystal display device 12 as a dominant judgment material, and whether the lottery result is included in the lottery result stored in the special figure stock storage area 103f. You can guess whether or not. Therefore, the player's willingness to play can be improved more favorably.

  In this embodiment, the second jackpot game is set to a jackpot game that is more advantageous to the player than the first jackpot game. If the high stock state continues for a long time, the lottery result per hit becomes easy to be stocked, and when the stock is released after that, the second big hit game with more balls than the first big hit game can be continuously executed. Increases nature. For this reason, if the player guesses that there are multiple hits in the lottery results stocked, the game cannot be stopped, so that the operation can be further improved.

Modified example

  In the above embodiment, whether or not the lottery results are stocked based on the special figure random number value and the stock random number value when the start condition is satisfied (the number of special figure holds is three or less) and the values are extracted from the random number counters 103a to 103d. However, it is determined whether or not the lottery result is stocked when the winning to the start winning device 21 is detected even when the special figure hold has reached the upper limit number (for example, four). If it is determined not to stock, the lottery result may be discarded, and if it is determined to stock, the lottery result may be stored in the special figure stock storage area 103f. Thereby, even if the special figure hold has reached the upper limit number, the possibility that the player continues to strike without stopping the ball firing is increased, and the operation can be improved. Furthermore, according to this, even during the jackpot game, it becomes possible to stock new lottery results while reducing the stock.

Further, in the above embodiment, the present invention is applied to a pachinko gaming machine that has a probability variation function and the probability variation state ends according to the number of fluctuations of the special figure.
