Description

  The present invention relates to a pachinko gaming machine.

  In recent years, in the mainstream pachinko machines, random numbers (big hit random number, big hit symbol random number value, reach random number value) are acquired in response to the winning of a game ball at the starting port provided on the game board, and the acquired random number value The special symbol type is determined based on the symbol, and the determined special symbol type is displayed on the symbol display after the symbol variation. When a big hit is won based on the determination of the big hit random number value, a special special symbol is displayed on the symbol display, a big hit game more advantageous than the normal game is generated, and an open / close type large game provided on the game board is generated. The winning opening is opened and closed over multiple rounds.

  In this type of pachinko gaming machine, when the starting port has first and second starting ports, the first starting port is configured by a so-called navel, and the second starting port is configured by a so-called openable electric so-called electric chew. When a win is won in a lottery performed when a game ball passes through a gate provided on the board, an auxiliary game is generated and the second start port is opened and closed one or more times.

  By the way, when winning the jackpot, based on the determination of the jackpot symbol random value, one of a plurality of types of jackpot symbols is selected as a specific special symbol and displayed on the image display, depending on the type of the jackpot symbol, The contents of the jackpot game and the game state after the jackpot game change. For example, in the case of the jackpot game content, in the case of a probable jackpot symbol, a normal jackpot symbol, the big winning opening is opened and closed in a pattern that can acquire a large number of balls (for example, about 1000), and in the case of a sudden big hit symbol, the big winning mouth Will be opened and closed in a pattern that can not practically win the ball.

  For example, if the game state after a big hit game is a probable big hit symbol or a sudden big hit symbol, a probable variable game state is set and continues substantially until the next big hit game occurs. It is set and continued until the maximum symbol variation of the special symbol is performed a set number of times (for example, 100 times), and then the setting is changed to the normal gaming state. For example, in the normal gaming state and the short-time gaming state, the winning probability of jackpot is set to a low probability (for example, about 1/300), and in the probability variation gaming state, the winning probability of jackpot is a high probability (for example, about 1/30). In addition, in the short-time gaming state and the probability-changing gaming state, the frequency of occurrence of the auxiliary game is higher than in the normal gaming state, and the opening time of the second start port is lengthened.

  Now, since the starting port has first and second starting ports, the first holding number of game balls won in the first starting port is stored up to the maximum set number (for example, four), and The first random number value acquired upon winning is stored and held, and the second hold number of game balls won at the second starting port is stored up to the maximum set number (for example, four), and the game ball It is put to practical use in a pachinko gaming machine that stores and holds the second random number value acquired in response to the winning of the game.

  In this pachinko gaming machine, the stored first and second random numbers (first and second reserved random numbers) are digested with the special symbol variation, but both the first and second reserved numbers are 1 In the above case, the second reserved random number value is preferentially digested over the first reserved numerical value (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

  When winning the jackpot from the second reserved random value, the contents of the jackpot game and the gaming state after the jackpot game are more advantageous than when winning the jackpot from the first reserved random value. For example, if you win the jackpot from the second reserved random value, the selection ratio of the normal jackpot symbol is the same as when you win the jackpot from the first reserved random value, but if you win the jackpot from the first reserved random value As a result, the selection ratio of the probable big hit symbol is high (that is, the selection ratio of the sudden big hit symbol is low).

Shifted to 1, 2, 3.

  The same applies to the second holding means 42b. The second holding number is stored in the second holding number storage area, and one second holding random value is stored in each of the second holding random value storage areas 1 to 4. . The second reserved random number values are stored in the order of the random number value storage area 1 → 2 → 3 → 4 in the order acquired by the second random number value acquisition means 40b, and the second reserved random number value in the random value storage area 1 is stored. When the numerical value is to be digested and the second reserved random value is digested, that is, erased from the random value storage area 1, the second reserved random values in the random value storage areas 2, 3 and 4 are stored in the random value storage area. Shifted to 1, 2, 3.

  The holding digest mode setting means 52 is based on the first and second special symbols determined by the first and second random number determination means 41a and 41b by a predetermined random number lottery. One of the second hold priority digest modes 51a and 51b is selected and set. The specific first and second special symbols respectively have first and second jackpot symbols, and the reserved digest mode setting means 52 displays the first jackpot symbol on the first or second symbol display 19a or 19b. If the first hold priority digest mode 51a is selected, and the second jackpot symbol is displayed on the first or second symbol display 19a or 19b, the second reserve priority digest mode 51b is selected.

  Moreover, after setting one of the first and second hold priority digest modes 51a and 51b, the hold digest mode setting means 52 sets the first and second hold priority digest modes 51a and 51b when a predetermined mode change opportunity is established. When setting is changed from one to the other and one of the first and second hold priority digest modes 51a and 51b is set, any one of a plurality of preset mode change triggers is selected as a predetermined mode change trigger. Choose one. The predetermined mode change opportunity is that the symbol variation of the first and second special symbols has been performed a set number of times, or that a set time has elapsed.

  The RAM of the game control board 22 is provided with a reserved digest mode setting related information storage area, and in this storage area, the current reserved digest mode (either the first or second reserved priority digest mode 51a or 51b) is stored. Information and the like are stored.

  Next, the first and second random number acquisition means 40a and 40b, the first and second random number determination means 41a and 41b, the first and second holding means 42a and 42b, the holding digesting means 50 (first and second The control process executed by the main controller 21 (game control board 22) will be specifically described so that the functions of the hold priority digest modes 51a and 51b and the hold digest mode setting means 51) can be realized.

  First, as shown in FIG. 5, the game control board 22 executes a timer interrupt process for every minute time, and in this timer interrupt process, random number update process (S1), switch process (S2), symbol process ( S3), electric accessory processing (S4), holding digest mode setting processing (S5), prize ball processing (S6), and output processing (S7) are sequentially executed.

  As shown in FIG. 6, in the start port SW process in S2, the first start port SW11d is on (S10; Yes), and if the first hold number U1 is less than 4 (S11; Yes), the first The hold number U1 is incremented to U1 + 1 (S12), and the first random number value (big hit random number value, big hit symbol random number value, reach random number value) is acquired and stored (S13), that is, stored and held as the first hold random number value. The first hold number increase command is set (S14).

  If the second start port SW11e is on (S15; Yes), and if the second hold number U2 is less than 4 (S16; Yes), the second hold number U2 is incremented to U2 + 1 (S17), 2 random number values (big hit random number value, big hit symbol random number value, reach random number value) are acquired and stored (S18), that is, stored and held as the second pending random number value, and the second pending number increase command is set (S19). ).

  As shown in FIG. 7, in the special symbol processing in S3, when the winning game flag is not ON (S20; No), further, when the symbols are not changing on the first and second special symbol indicators 19a and 19b (S21; Next, it is determined whether or not the first hold priority digest mode 51a is set (S22). The determination in S22 is made based on the information on the current hold digest mode stored in the RAM. If the first hold priority digest mode 51a is set (S22; Yes), the first hold priority process (S23). ) Is executed and the second hold priority digest mode 51b is set (S22; No), the second hold priority process (S24) is executed.

  As shown in FIG. 8, in the first hold priority process of S23, it is first determined whether or not the first hold number U1 is 1 or more (S40). If S40; Yes, the first hold number U1 is U1-1. If the second hold number U2 is 1 or more (S42; Yes), the second hold number U2 is decremented to U2-1 (S43).

  As shown in FIG. 9, in the second hold priority process of S24, first, it is determined whether or not the second hold number U2 is 1 or more (S45). If S45; Yes, the second hold number U2 is U2-1. When the first hold number U1 is 1 or more (S47; Yes), the first hold number U1 is decremented to U1-1 (S48).

  As shown in FIG. 7, in the first hold priority process of S23 or the second hold priority process of S24, when the first or second hold number U1 or U2 is subtracted (S25; Yes), the customer waiting flag is OFF. (S26), a big hit determination process (S27) is executed.

  As shown in FIG. 10, in the big hit determination process of S27, first, when the first hold number U1 is subtracted, the big hit random number value of the first hold random number value acquired first is read and the second hold number U2 In the case of subtraction, the big hit random number value of the second reserved random number value acquired first is read, and the big hit random number determination process (S50) based on the big hit random number value and the big hit random number determination table shown in FIG. Is executed.

  For example, the big hit random number value is selected from the range of 0 to 299. In the big hit random number determination process of S50, the big hit random number value is a big hit at a rate of 1/300 when the normal gaming state and the short-time gaming state. In the case of a specific value, it is determined to be a big hit, in the probability variation gaming state and the latent probability gaming state, it is determined to be a big hit in the case of a big hit specific value at a rate of 1/30, and in all gaming states, it is determined to be a small hit at a rate of 3/300 In the case of a hit specific value, it is determined as a small hit.

  If it is determined that the game is a big hit (S51; Yes), then, if the first hold number U1 is subtracted, the jackpot symbol random number value of the first hold random number value obtained first is read and the second hold. In the case of subtraction of the number U2, the jackpot symbol random number value of the second reserved random number value acquired first is read, and based on the jackpot symbol random number value and the jackpot symbol random number determination table shown in FIG. A random number determination process (S52) is executed.

  For example, the jackpot symbol random number value is selected from the range of 0 to 249, and in the S52 jackpot symbol random number determination process, the jackpot symbol random number value is the first reserved random number value, that is, the first start winning opening 11a. When the game ball is won by winning a game ball, it is determined as a probability variation symbol at a ratio of 50/250 and a symbol variation value at a ratio of 100/250. If it is determined to be a symbol, it is determined to be a random symbol when the ratio is 50/250, and a random symbol value is determined to be a latent symbol when the ratio is 50/250. If it is the second reserved random value, that is, it is acquired by winning a game ball to the second start winning opening 11b, it is determined as a probability variation symbol in the case of a probability variation symbol specific value at a ratio of 150/250, 100/250 It is determined that the normal design in the case of normal design specific value as a percentage.

  Then, the jackpot symbol determined in S52 (any one of probability variation symbol, normal symbol, random probability symbol, latent probability symbol) is set (S53). On the other hand, when it is determined that it is a small hit (S51; No, S54; Yes), a small hit symbol is set (S55), and when it is determined that it is lost (S51; No, S54; No), a lost symbol is set. (S56).

  As shown in FIG. 7, after the big hit determination process of S27, the variation pattern selection process (S28) is executed. Here, when it is determined that the big hit, the fluctuation pattern (fluctuation time) is selected and set from the big hit fluctuation pattern selection table. Further, when it is not determined to be a big hit, when the first hold number U1 is subtracted, the reach random number value of the first hold random number value acquired first is read, and when the second hold number U2 is subtracted, the most The reach random number value of the second reserved random number value acquired previously is read, and the reach random number determination process is executed based on the reach random number value and the reach random number determination table. Therefore, when the reach is determined to be reach, the change pattern (change time) is selected and set from the reach change pattern selection table. When the reach is not determined, the change pattern (change time) is selected from the loss change pattern selection table.

  Next, after the fluctuation pattern selection process of S28, the special symbol starts to fluctuate (S29). When the first reserved symbol U1 is subtracted, the first special symbol display 19a starts to fluctuate. When the second reserved number U2 is subtracted, the second special symbol indicator 19b receives the second special symbol. Fluctuation starts. Next, a change start command including information on the symbol set in S53, S55 or S56 and the change pattern (change time) set in S28 is set (S30).

  S21; No, or after S30, when the variation time set in S28 has passed (S31; Yes), the first or second special symbol display 19a or 19b during the variation of the first or second special symbol display 19a or 19b The special symbol is suspended (S32), and the symbol set in S53, S55, or S56 is displayed. Subsequently, a change stop command is set (S33), and a stop process (S34) is executed. S25: If No, the customer waiting setting process (S35) is executed.

  Here, when a jackpot symbol (probability variation symbol, normal symbol, random symbol symbol, latent probability symbol) is displayed, a jackpot game occurs, and the winning prize opening 13a is opened and closed over a plurality of rounds (for example, 15 rounds). To do. Each R (round) starts after opening the grand prize opening 13a, and when the set time elapses or when a set number of game balls (for example, about 10) enter the big prize opening 13a, the grand prize opening 13a is opened. Although the process ends after closing, R is opened for a long time (for example, about 30 seconds), and R is opened for a short time (for example, about 1 second).

  For example, as shown in FIG. 13, in the case of a probability variation symbol and a normal symbol, all 15Rs are long-opened, and in the case of a random symbol and a latent symbol, all 15Rs are short-opened. In addition, when a small winning symbol is displayed, a small winning game is generated, and the big winning opening 13a is opened and closed a plurality of times (for example, 15 times). In this case, for example, as shown in FIG. As in the case of normal symbols, all 15 times are short-opening that opens and closes in a short time (for example, about 1 second).

  As the game state after the big hit, the probability variation game state is set in the case of the probability variation symbol and the probability symbol, and the latent probability game state is set in the case of the latent probability symbol, and each is substantially continued until the next big hit game occurrence, In the case of a normal symbol, the short-time gaming state is set and the symbol variation of the special symbol is continued up to the set number of times (for example, 100 times), and then changed to the normal gaming state.

  For example, as can be seen from FIG. 11, in the normal gaming state and the short-time gaming state, the winning probability of the big hit is set to a low probability (for example, 1/300), and in the probability variation gaming state and the latent probability gaming state, the big winning prize is set. The probability is set to a high probability (for example, 1/30). In the short-time gaming state and the probability-changing gaming state, the frequency at which the auxiliary game occurs is higher than in the normal gaming state and the latent gaming state, and the opening time of the second start port 11b is longer.

  As shown in FIG. 14, in the pending digest mode setting process in S5, it is first determined whether or not a mode setting opportunity is established (S60). Here, when the jackpot symbol (probability variation, normal symbol, rush symbol, latent probability symbol) is displayed on the first or second special symbol indicator 19a or 19b (a jackpot game has occurred), the mode setting opportunity is It is determined that it has been established.

  When the mode setting opportunity is established (S60; Yes), one of the first and second hold priority digest modes is selected and set (S61). Here, for example, the reserved digest mode selection table shown in FIG. 15 is used, and in the case of the probability variation symbol and the normal symbol which are the second jackpot symbols, the second reserve priority digest mode is set and the first jackpot symbol is set. In the case of the urgent symbol and the latent symbol, the first hold priority digest mode is set. The set information on the first or second hold priority digest mode is updated and stored in the RAM of the game control board 22.

  After S61, it is determined whether or not there is a mode change plan (S62). Here, for example, the mode change schedule determination table shown in FIG. 16 is used. In the case of a normal symbol, a random symbol, and a latent symbol, it is determined that the mode is scheduled to be changed. It is determined that there is no planned change. When there is a mode change schedule (S62; Yes), the mode change schedule flag F is set to 1 (S63), a mode change opportunity is selected (S64), and the process returns and when there is no mode change schedule (S62; No), the mode change schedule flag F is set to 0 (S65), and the process returns. Information on the set mode change schedule flag F is updated and stored in the RAM of the game control board 22.

  In S64, for example, the mode change opportunity selection table shown in FIG. 17 is used. As the mode change opportunity, the number of fluctuations of the special symbol after the big hit game is 50 times in the case of the normal symbol, and 100 in the case of the probable symbol. Times, in the case of a latent symbol, it is set to 20 times. Or, for example, the mode change opportunity selection table shown in FIG. 18 is used, and the mode change opportunity is the time after the big hit game, which is 5 minutes for a normal symbol, 20 minutes for a random symbol, and a latent probability symbol. In the case of, it is set to 1 minute. The set mode change trigger information is updated and stored in the RAM of the game control board 22.

  On the other hand, if the mode setting opportunity is not established (S60; No), it is determined whether or not the mode change schedule flag F is 1 (S66). If S66; If the mode change schedule flag F is 1 (S66; Yes), then the mode change opportunity count is calculated. This mode change opportunity count is the number of times and time of the change of the special symbol after the big hit game, and the calculated mode change opportunity count is updated and stored in the RAM of the game control board 22.

  After S67, it is determined whether or not a mode change opportunity is established (S67). In S67, when the mode change opportunity count reaches the number of changes selected in the table of FIG. 17 or the time selected in the table of FIG. 18, it is determined that the mode change opportunity has been established.

  If the mode change opportunity has not been established (S68; No), the process returns, and if the mode change opportunity has been established (S68; Yes), one of the currently set first and second hold priority digest modes is changed to the other. The setting is changed, and the process proceeds to S62. The information of the changed first or second hold priority digest mode is updated and stored in the RAM of the game control board 22.

The operational effects of the pachinko gaming machine 1 described above will be described.
In the hold digest means 50, the hold digest mode setting means 52 preferentially digests the random value (first hold random value) of the first hold means 42a over the random value (second hold random value) of the second hold means 42b. By setting the first hold priority digest mode 51a and the second hold priority digest mode 51b for preferentially digesting the second hold random number value over the first hold random number value to be selectively switchable, the first and second When both the number of holdings is 1 or more, it is possible to improve the conventional gaming specifications by always preferentially digesting from one of the first and second holding random number values without reducing the game motivation. It is possible to improve and provide novel gameplay.

  The holding digest mode setting means 52 is based on the first and second special symbols determined by the first and second random number determination means 41a and 41b by a predetermined random number lottery. Since either one of the second hold priority digest modes 51a and 51b is selected and set, the first and second hold priority digest modes 51a and 51b are used by using the determinations made by the first and second random number determination means 41a and 41b. Either can be set automatically.

  In this case, the specific first and second special symbols respectively have the first and second jackpot symbols, and the reserved digest mode setting means 52 indicates that the first jackpot symbol is the first or second special symbol indicator 19a. Or when the first hold priority digest mode 51a is selected when displayed in 19b and the second jackpot symbol is displayed on the first or second special symbol display 19a or 19b, the second reserve priority digest mode 51b is selected. Therefore, it is possible to set one of the first and second reserved priority digest modes 51a and 51b according to the types of the first and second special symbols (first and second jackpot symbols). it can.

  The hold digest mode setting means 52 sets one of the first and second reserve priority digest modes 51a and 51b, and then sets one of the first and second reserve priority digest modes 51a and 51b when a predetermined mode change opportunity is established. Since the setting is changed to the other, when one of the first and second hold priority digest modes 51a and 51b is set, any one of a plurality of preset mode change triggers is set as a predetermined mode change trigger. Since it is selected alternatively, the predetermined mode change opportunity is not constant, so that it is possible to improve the fun and the game.

In addition, you may change the holding | maintenance digest mode setting process of FIG. 14 as follows.
(1) In S60, it is determined whether or not a mode setting opportunity is established by some random lottery other than whether or not a big hit game has occurred. Alternatively, in addition to the random lottery, whether or not the first or second reserved number has reached the maximum set number, or a predetermined winning port (first and second starting winning ports 11a and 11b, gate 12 or large winning port 13a and the general winning opening 14) The number of game balls won is counted, and it is determined whether or not the mode setting opportunity is established by determining whether or not the winning number has reached the set number.

(2) In S61, one of the first and second reserved priority digest modes is selected and set by some predetermined random number lottery instead of the type of jackpot symbol.
(3) Omit S64 and fix the mode change trigger to one type.
(4) S67 is omitted, that is, the determination of S68 is enabled without requiring calculation of the mode change opportunity count. For example, as a mode change opportunity, a set symbol (for example, a small hit symbol) is displayed on the first or second special symbol indicator 19a or 19b.
(5) A plurality of first start ports corresponding to the first special symbol display may be provided, or a plurality of second start ports corresponding to the second special symbol display may be provided.
(6) The mode change trigger may be any combination of the fact that the symbol change has been performed a set number of times, that the set time has elapsed, and that the set symbol has been displayed on the symbol display means.

  The second embodiment is obtained by omitting the steps after S62 in the holding digest mode setting process of FIG. 14 of the first embodiment. That is, as shown in FIG. 19, in the pending digest mode setting process of the second embodiment, it is determined whether or not a mode setting opportunity is established (S60). If S60; No, the process returns, and if S60; One of the first and second hold priority digest modes is selected and set (S61), and the process returns. In S61, for example, the reserved digest mode selection table shown in FIG. 20 is used, and in the case of the probability variation symbol and the normal symbol, the second retention priority digest mode is set, and in the case of the sudden symbol symbol, the latent symbol symbol, and the small hit symbol symbol The first hold priority digest mode is set.

  In the third embodiment, as shown in FIG. 21, the holding digest unit 50 further has a holding acquisition order digest mode 51c. The hold acquisition order digest mode 51c digests the random numbers (first and second hold random values) of the first and second hold means 42a and 42b in the order acquired by the first and second random number acquisition means 40a and 40b. The hold digest mode setting means 52 sets the first and second hold priority digest modes 51a and 51b and the hold acquisition order digest mode 51c to be alternatively switchable.

  Here, as shown in FIG. 22, the RAM of the game control board 22 constituting the first and second holding means 42a, 42b is basically the first, second as described with reference to FIG. The reserved random number values are stored and held. For all the first and second reserved random number values, the first and second reserved random number values are acquired by the first and second random number value acquisition means 40a and 40b. It is stored with a ranking. In the hold acquisition order digest mode 51c, when the first and second hold numbers are both 1 or more, the information in the first hold hand random number storage area 1 and the information in the second hold hand random number storage area 1 are The first or second reserved random number value that is compared and obtained earlier is digested.

  The main control device 21 (game control board 22) is capable of realizing the functions of the holding digest means 50 (first and second hold priority digest modes 51a and 51b, hold acquisition order digest mode 51c, hold digest mode setting means 52). FIG. 23 and FIG. 24 are flowcharts showing the control processing executed by.

  The special symbol process of FIG. 23 is a partial modification of the special symbol process of FIG. 7 of the first embodiment. The same steps as those of the first embodiment are denoted by the same step numbers and the description thereof is omitted. In this special symbol process, if S21; No, it is determined whether or not the first hold priority digest mode is set (S22). If S22; Yes, the first hold priority process (S23) is executed, and S22. In the case of No, it is determined whether or not the second distillation priority digestion mode is set (S70). In the case of S70; Yes, the second hold priority process (S24) is executed, and in the case of S70; No, that is, If the hold acquisition order digest mode is set, hold acquisition order processing (S71) is executed.

  As shown in FIG. 24, in the hold acquisition order process of S71, first, it is determined whether or not the first or second hold number U1 or U2 is 1 or more (S75). If S75; Is determined to be the first random number value (S76), if S76; Yes, the first hold number U1 is decremented to U1-1 (S77), and if S76; The 2-hold number U2 is decremented to U1-1 (S78). The configuration including other control processing is the same as in the first embodiment.

  In the fourth embodiment, as shown in FIG. 25, the hold digest mode setting means 25 has mode operation means 53 that can be operated by the player, and the first and second hold operations are performed through the operation by the mode operation means 53. Either of the priority digest modes 51a and 51b can be selected and set, and a period during which the operation by the mode operation means 53 is valid is set. The mode operation means 53 is composed of, for example, one push button, and the operation signal is input to the game control board 22.

  The main controller 21 (game control board 22) can realize the functions of the holding digesting means 50 (first and second holding priority digesting modes 51a and 51b, the holding digesting mode setting means 52 (mode operation means 53)). FIG. 26 is a flowchart showing the control process to be executed.

  In the pending digest mode setting process of FIG. 26, first, it is determined whether or not it is a mode operation valid period (S80). Here, for some reason, for example, during the jackpot game, a period during which the operation by the mode operation means 53 becomes valid is set. However, in the case of S80; No, the process returns, and in the case of S80; It is determined whether or not the operation means 53 is an operation (S81). If S81; No, the process returns. S81: If Yes, it is determined whether or not the first hold priority digest mode is set before operating the mode operation means 53 (S82). If S82; No, the first hold priority digest mode is set (S83), Return to step S82; if Yes, the second pending priority digest mode is set (S84) and the process returns.

  In the fifth embodiment, the hold digest mode setting means 52 has mode operation means 53 that can be operated by the player, and the first and second hold priority digest modes 51 a and 51 b are operated through the operation by the mode operation means 53. Any one of the pending acquisition order digest modes 51c can be selected and set, and a period during which the operation by the mode operation means 53 is valid is set.

  In the pending digest mode setting process of FIG. 27, it is determined whether or not the mode operation is valid (S90). If S90; No, the process returns. If S90; Yes, then it is determined whether or not the mode operation means 53 is operated (S91). If S91; No, the process returns. S91: If Yes, it is determined whether or not the first hold priority digest mode is set before operating the mode operation means 53 (S92). If S92; Yes, the second hold priority digest mode is selected and set (S95). ).

  In the case of S92; No, it is determined whether or not the second hold priority digest mode is set before the operation of the mode operation means 53 (S93), and in the case of S93; Yes, the hold acquisition order digest mode is selected and set (S96). In the case of S93; No, that is, when the hold acquisition order digest mode is set before the operation of the mode operation means 53, the first hold priority digest mode is selected and set (S94).

  In the sixth embodiment, the jackpot symbol random number determination table shown in FIG. 12 of the first embodiment is changed to the jackpot symbol random number determination table shown in FIG. 29 is changed to the opening / closing pattern example of the big winning opening at the time of the hit game.

  As can be seen from FIG. 20 and FIG. 29, the ratio based on the second reserved random number value is greater than the case based on the first reserved random number value for the ratio of jackpots based on the stochastic pattern and the latent pattern that cannot substantially obtain the ball. Also make it high. Instead, the probability variation symbol is classified into the first probability variation symbol and the second probability variation symbol, and the ratio of becoming the first probability variation symbol is set higher when based on the first reserved random value than when based on the second reserved random value. In addition, the ratio based on the second reserved random value is set higher than the ratio based on the first reserved random value for the ratio of the second probability variation pattern.

  Then, the number of balls that are hit with a big hit by the second probability variation symbol is made larger than the number of balls that are hit with a big hit by the first probability variation symbol. That is, it is possible to balance the merits and demerits in the first on-hold digestion mode with the merits and demerits in the second on-hold digestion mode.

  In addition, in the range which does not deviate from the meaning of this invention, it can implement by adding various changes other than the matter described in Examples 1-6. Moreover, the present invention can be applied to various pachinko gaming machines.
