  By the way, in the pachinko gaming machine of Patent Document 1, during the big hit game, the hits won in the past are merely displayed as a history. In other words, since “history” in Patent Document 1 is past information, it is useful information for a player who is interested in what kind of jackpot has been won so far. However, many players are more interested in what kind of big wins will be won in the symbol variation game to be executed in the future than what kind of big wins have been won in the past. In other words, in the pachinko gaming machine of Patent Document 1, whether or not the symbol variation game being executed is a hit and the history display are completely unrelated.

  The present invention has been made paying attention to such problems existing in the prior art, and its purpose is to use the history also for the production during the design variation game, An object of the present invention is to provide a gaming machine that can broaden the width and increase the added value of the history itself.

  In order to solve the above-mentioned problem, the invention according to claim 1 is a gaming machine that displays on the display means the winning type determined when winning the winning lottery as a winning history. In the case of winning the winning lottery, a hitting type determining means for determining a hitting type from among a plurality of types of hits having different profits obtained by the player, and a type code set according to the winning type are used. The history control means for displaying the winning history on the display means, and the winning type that can be determined when the running symbol variation game is won using the type code displayed by the history control means The gist of the present invention is to provide suggestion control means for executing the suggestion effect to be performed.

  According to a second aspect of the present invention, in the gaming machine according to the first aspect, the suggestion control means arbitrarily determines the type code when the suggestion effect is executed when the winning lottery is not won. Then, the determined type code is additionally displayed during the symbol variation game so as to be a suggestion mode different from the display mode displayed by the history control means, and the suggestion until the next symbol variation game is started. While the type code of the aspect is not displayed, when the winning lottery is won, the type code corresponding to the hit determined based on the winning of the winning lottery is determined, and the determined type A code is additionally displayed during the symbol variation game so as to be the suggestion mode, and the history control means substitutes the type code of the suggestion mode after the winning game based on the symbol variation game ends. Said displaying the class code as history corresponding to the type of per determined Te is summarized as.

  According to a third aspect of the present invention, in the gaming machine according to the first aspect, when the suggestion control means causes the suggestion effect to be executed when the winning lottery is not won, the type already displayed is displayed. When any of the types of codes is determined, and the determined type code is executed as the suggested mode different from the display mode displayed by the history control unit, while the winning lottery is won The type code corresponding to the hit determined based on the winning of the winning lottery among the already displayed type codes is determined, and the suggested type is used as the suggestion mode as the suggested effect. The gist is to execute.

  According to a fourth aspect of the present invention, in the gaming machine according to the third aspect, when the suggestion control means wins the winning lottery, the determined winning type among the already displayed type codes The suggestion effect is executed using only the type code corresponding to the suggestion mode, or the suggestion effect is executed using the type code and other type code corresponding to the determined hit type as the suggestion mode. The gist.

  According to a fifth aspect of the present invention, in the gaming machine according to the third aspect, the suggestion control means corresponds to the specific type code when it is a win depending on the number of specific type codes as the suggestion mode. The gist is to suggest the probability of hitting.

  According to a sixth aspect of the present invention, in the gaming machine according to any one of the first to fifth aspects, the winning type is derived in a symbol variation game when the winning lottery is won. The gist is that it is defined by a special symbol constituting the winning symbol.

  According to the present invention, the history is also used for the effects during the symbol variation game, so that the range of the effects of the symbol variation game can be expanded and the added value of the history itself can be increased.

The effect display device 11 includes a symbol variation game executed by varying a plurality of symbol sequences (three columns in the present embodiment), and various display effects executed in association with the game are displayed as images. In the present embodiment, in the symbol variation game of the effect display device 11, a symbol combination including a plurality of columns (three columns in the present embodiment) is derived. Note that the symbol variation game of the effect display device 11 is performed using decorative symbols (effect symbols) for diversifying display effects.

  A 7-segment special symbol display device 12 is disposed below the effect display device 11. In the special symbol display device 12, a symbol variation game is displayed in which a plurality of types of special symbols are varied and displayed. The special symbol is a notification symbol indicating the result of the internal lottery (big hit lottery) whether or not the big hit.

  The effect display device 11 displays a display result corresponding to the display result of the special symbol display device 12. Specifically, when a big hit symbol (hit display result) that can recognize a big hit is confirmed and stopped on the special symbol display device 12, the big hit symbol (hit display result) is also confirmed and stopped on the effect display device 11. Is displayed. In addition, when a special symbol display device 12 that can recognize a deviation is displayed in a fixed stop state, the special symbol display device 12 is also displayed in a fixed stop manner.

  The jackpot symbol that is confirmed and stopped on the effect display device 11 is composed of symbol combinations in which the decorative symbols in all the rows are the same symbol. In addition, the off-line symbols that are confirmed and displayed on the effect display device 11 are a combination of symbols in which the decorative symbols in all the rows are different, or a decorative symbol in which the decorative symbols in one row are different from the decorative symbols in the other two rows. It is comprised by the following symbol combination. Further, in the effect display device 11, the variation of the symbol sequence stops in the order of left column → right column → middle column as viewed from the player side, and two specific columns (two columns on the left and right in this embodiment). ), When the same decorative design is temporarily displayed (fluctuation fluctuation display), reach is formed.

  In addition, a normal symbol display device 13 is disposed on the right side of the special symbol display device 12 in the game board 10. In the normal symbol display device 13, a normal symbol variation game (hereinafter simply referred to as a “general symbol game”) is performed in which a plurality of types of normal symbols are varied to derive one normal symbol. In the normal symbol display device 13 of this embodiment, a light-emitting body (LED, lamp, etc.) not shown is covered with a lens cover (in FIG. 1, the surface is decorated with “◯ (circle)” and “× (batsu)”). And a plurality of (two in the present embodiment) ordinary symbol display units. The normal symbol display device 13 displays a lottery result of an internal lottery (whether to be described later, lottery to be described later), which is performed separately from the winning lottery to determine whether or not to win.

  Further, on the left side of the special symbol display device 12, a special symbol hold storage display device Ra including a plurality (four in this embodiment) of special symbol hold light emitting units is disposed. The special symbol hold storage display device Ra informs the player of the number of stored special design starting balls stored inside the machine (hereinafter referred to as “special figure start holding memory number”). The special figure start reserved memory count is incremented by 1 when a game ball enters a start winning port (upper start winning port 14 or lower start winning port 15) arranged on the game board 10, while a symbol variation game is added. 1 is subtracted at the start of. Accordingly, when a game ball enters the start winning opening during the symbol variation game, the special figure start reserved memory number is further added and accumulated up to a predetermined upper limit number (four in this embodiment).

  Further, in the effect display device 11, a reserved image display area H for displaying an image of the special figure start reserved memory number is formed below the image display unit GH. As shown in FIG. 1, the reserved image display area H is configured to include four individual display areas (notification units) H1, H2, H3, and H4 corresponding to the upper limit number of special figure start reserved memories. In the hold image display area H, the number of individual display areas corresponding to the special figure start hold storage number is displayed as an image with a hold display. For example, in the case of the special figure start reserved memory number “2”, the individual display areas H1 and H2 are displayed as images with a hold display, while the individual display areas H3 and H4 are displayed as an image with no hold display. Is displayed. That is, the individual display area individually corresponds to each start holding ball. In FIG. 1, as an on-hold display mode, the individual display area is provided with a diagonal line to the left. Since the reserved image display area is formed in the image display unit GH that the player always pays attention to, the player can determine from the number of individual display areas that are image-displayed in the reserved display mode in the reserved image display area H. The number of special figure start hold memory will be recognized.

  Further, below the effect display device 11, an upper start winning port 14 having a game ball entrance 14a and a lower start winning port 15 having a game ball entrance 15a are arranged in the vertical direction. Yes. The upper start winning opening 14 is configured to always open the entrance 14a so as to allow the entry of game balls at all times. On the other hand, the lower start winning opening 15 is an ordinary electric accessory, and includes an opening / closing blade 16 that opens and closes by the operation of an actuator (solenoid, motor, etc.) (not shown). The entrance 15a is opened to allow entry of a ball.

  At the back of each of the upper start winning opening 14 and the lower start winning opening 15, start opening switches SW1 and SW2 (shown in FIG. 2) for detecting the game balls that have entered are arranged. The upper start winning opening 14 and the lower start winning opening 15 can give a start condition for the symbol variation game and a payout condition for a game ball as a predetermined number of winning balls by detecting the game balls that have entered.

  Below the lower start winning opening 15, a large winning opening 18 having a large winning opening door 17 that is opened and closed by the operation of an actuator (solenoid, motor, etc.) (not shown) is disposed. A count switch SW3 (shown in FIG. 2) for detecting a game ball that has entered the ball is disposed in the back of the special winning opening 18. The big winning opening 18 can give a payout condition of game balls as a predetermined number of prize balls by detecting the game balls that have entered. The big winning opening 18 is opened by the opening operation of the big winning opening door 17 during the big hit game, thereby allowing a game ball to enter. For this reason, during the big hit game, the player can obtain a chance to win a prize ball.

  The big hit game is given when the big hit is determined by the internal lottery and the big hit symbol is determined and stopped in the symbol variation game. When the big hit game is started, an opening effect indicating the start of the big hit game is first performed. After the opening effect is finished, a round game in which the big prize opening 18 is opened by the opening operation of the big prize opening door 17 is performed a plurality of times up to a predetermined prescribed number of rounds. One round game is a condition that is established earlier, either when a predetermined round game time elapses after the round game starts or when a predetermined maximum number of game balls enter. It ends by satisfying. The big hit game ends with an ending effect indicating the end of the big hit game after the end of the predetermined number of round games.

  Further, a normal symbol operating gate 19 is disposed on the left side of the effect display device 11. A normal symbol variation switch SW4 (shown in FIG. 2) for detecting a game ball that has entered and passed through the normal symbol operation gate 19 is provided at the back of the normal symbol operation gate 19. The normal symbol actuating gate 19 can give only the start condition for the ordinary game when the game ball passes. In the pachinko gaming machine according to the present embodiment, the lottery condition is that the game ball has passed through the normal symbol operation gate 19 (the normal symbol variation switch SW4 detects the game ball). A lottery per drawing is internally performed as an open lottery to determine whether or not the open / close blade 16 that opens and closes the mouth 15 is operated from the closed state to the open state.

  In addition, the pachinko gaming machine of the present embodiment is equipped with a production operation button BT (shown in FIG. 2). In the pachinko gaming machine, the effect operation button BT is disposed at a position where the player can operate while playing a game, such as an upper surface of a ball tray unit for storing game balls.

  Further, the pachinko gaming machine according to the present embodiment has a probability variation (hereinafter referred to as “probability variation”) function. The probability variation function is a function for giving a probability variation state in which the lottery probability state of the big hit lottery is set to a high probability state (high probability lottery state) after the big hit game is completed on the condition that the probability variation big hit is won. Further, the probability variation state is given until the next big hit occurs. The probability variation state can be an advantageous state for the player because the winning probability of the jackpot lottery fluctuates with a high probability and the jackpot is likely to occur. In the present embodiment, a jackpot that gives a probability variation state after the big hit game is a probability variation big hit, and a jackpot that is not given a probability variation state (that is, a non-probability variation state is given) after the big hit game is a non-probability big hit. Which jackpot is to be determined is determined according to the type of special symbol (jackpot symbol) that is determined when the jackpot lottery is won. For determining the special symbol (big hit symbol), a special symbol distribution random number, which will be described later, is used, and the special symbol is selected based on the extracted value of the special symbol distribution random number. Then, a predetermined number (for example, one) is assigned to each special symbol (special symbol A to C) corresponding to each type of jackpot.

  Further, the pachinko gaming machine according to the present embodiment has a function of shortening the variation time (hereinafter referred to as “variation shortening”). The speed change function shortens the change time of the normal game, and also changes the change state that changes the winning probability (lottery probability) of the normal lottery based on the passage of the normal symbol operation gate 19 from a low probability to a high probability. It is a function to be granted. Further, during the variable speed state, the total opening time of the open / close blades 16 based on the fact that one lottery per lottery has been won becomes longer than that during the non-changeable state. The variable state is given until a predetermined number of symbol variation games are played, or until a big hit occurs before the number of games is reached.

Hereinafter, the type of jackpot set in the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIG.
The jackpot game based on the special symbol A sets the prescribed round number to “15”, while the jackpot game based on the special symbol B and the special symbol C sets the prescribed round number to “7”. In addition, after the jackpot game based on the special symbol A and the jackpot game based on the special symbol C, regardless of the game state at the time of winning the jackpot lottery, the probability change state (until the next jackpot) and until the end of the probability change state. A short state is given. On the other hand, after the big hit game based on the special symbol B ends, the predetermined number of times (in this embodiment, 100 times) until the symbol variation game is played, regardless of the gaming state at the time of winning the big hit lottery Only the variable state is given until the jackpot is generated before the number of times is reached. Hereinafter, the jackpot game based on the special symbol A is referred to as “15R probability variable jackpot game”, while the jackpot game based on the special symbol B is referred to as “7R non-probability variable jackpot game”. The jackpot game based on the special symbol C is indicated as “7R probability variable jackpot game”. In the present embodiment, the profit that the player can obtain is defined by the number of times of the probability variation state, the variation state, and the prescribed number of rounds (the number of prize balls paid out).

  In the present embodiment, the number of prize balls to be paid out is greater in the case of 15 rounds than in the case of 7 rounds. In addition, in the probability variation big hit and non-probability big hit, it is advantageous for the player to be given a probability variation state after the big hit game is finished, so the 7R probability variable big hit game is more advantageous for the player than the 7R non-probability big hit game. A big hit. In the present embodiment, the 15R probability variation big hit game is positioned as the most advantageous big hit for the player.

Next, the control configuration of the pachinko gaming machine will be described with reference to FIG.
A main control board 30 for controlling the entire pachinko gaming machine is mounted on the back side of the machine. The main control board 30 executes various processes for controlling the entire pachinko gaming machine and outputs various control signals (control commands) according to the processing results. An effect control board 31 is mounted on the back side of the machine. The effect control board 31 controls the operation of various effect devices based on the control command output by the main control board 30.

Hereinafter, specific configurations of the main control board 30 and the effect control board 31 will be described.
The main control board 30 has a main control CPU 30a that executes control operations in a predetermined procedure, a main control ROM 30b that stores a control program for the main control CPU 30a, and a main control CPU that can write and read necessary data. A RAM 30c is provided. The main control CPU 30a is connected to various switches SW1 to SW4, a special symbol display device 12, a normal symbol display device 13, and a special symbol hold storage display device Ra.

  Further, the main control CPU 30a obtains the values of various random numbers such as jackpot determination random numbers, reach determination random numbers, special figure distribution random numbers, universal pattern determination random numbers, and variation pattern distribution random numbers at predetermined intervals. Execute random number update processing (random number generation processing) to be updated. The big hit determination random number is a random number used in the big hit lottery. The reach determination random number is a random number used in the reach lottery (reach determination) for determining whether or not to form a reach when the big hit lottery is not won. The special figure distribution random number is a random number used when determining the jackpot symbol. The random number for determining per common figure is a random number used in a lottery per common figure for whether or not per common figure. The variation pattern distribution random number is a random number used when a variation pattern is selected. The main control RAM 30c stores (sets) various pieces of information (random numbers, timer values, flags, etc.) that are appropriately rewritten during the operation of the pachinko gaming machine.

  The main control ROM 30b stores a main control program and a plurality of types of variation patterns. The variation pattern is a pattern that serves as a base for effects (display effects, light-emitting effects, audio effects) from the start of the symbol variation game to the end of the symbol variation game. Time (direction time) can be specified. Then, the variation patterns are classified for each variation content composed of a jackpot effect, an outlier reach effect, and an outlier effect.

  The jackpot effect is an effect in which the symbol variation game is developed so that the jackpot symbol is finally stopped and displayed after reaching the reach effect. Further, the outlier reach effect is an effect that the symbol variation game is developed so that the final symbol is finally stopped after the reach effect. Further, the off-stage effect is an effect that is developed so that the symbol variation game finally displays the out-of-place symbol without stopping and reaching the reach effect. The reach effect is an effect performed in the symbol variation game with the decorative symbols of the effect display device 11 after the reach is formed until the symbol combination (big hit symbol or off symbol) is finally derived. In the special symbol display device 12, when the symbol variation game is started, the symbol variation is continued until the variation time elapses without performing the reach effect.

  The main control ROM 30b stores a big hit determination value. The jackpot determination value is a determination value used in the jackpot lottery, and is determined from numerical values (all 1423 integers from 0 to 1422) that the jackpot determination random number can take. The jackpot determination value includes a low-probability jackpot determination value used in the jackpot lottery in the non-probability varying state and a high probability jackpot determination value used in the jackpot lottery in the probability-changing state. The set number of high-probability jackpot determination values (40 in this embodiment) is set to be larger than the set number of low-probability jackpot determination values (four in this embodiment). According to such a setting, the probability of winning in the jackpot lottery in the non-probable change state is 4/1423, while the probability of winning in the jackpot lottery in the probability change state is 40/1423.

  The reach control value is stored in the main control ROM 30b. The reach determination value is a determination value used in the reach lottery, and is determined from numerical values (a total of 241 kinds of integers from 0 to 240) that the reach determination random number can take. Further, the main control ROM 30b stores a standard hit value. The judgment value per common figure is a judgment value used in the internal lottery (lottery per common figure) whether or not per ordinary figure, and can be taken by a random number for judging per ordinary figure (a total of 251 integers from 0 to 250). ). Furthermore, the per-standard figure judgment value includes a low-probability common figure judgment value (13 in this embodiment) used in the per-normal figure lottery in the non-variable short state and the per-normal figure lottery in the variable state. There is a high-probability common figure determination value (250 in this embodiment) used in FIG.

Next, the effect control board 31 will be described.
The effect control board 31 has an effect control CPU 31a that executes control operations in a predetermined procedure, an effect control ROM 31b that stores a control program for the effect control CPU 31a, and an effect control that can write and read necessary data. A RAM 31c is provided. In addition, various information (timer value, flag, etc.) that is appropriately rewritten during the operation of the pachinko gaming machine is stored (set) in the effect control RAM 31c. The effect display device 11 is connected to the effect control CPU 31a. The effect control ROM 31b stores various image data (image data such as symbols, backgrounds, characters, characters, etc.). In addition, the production control button BT is connected to the production control CPU 31a, and the production operation button BT is operated by inputting an operation signal output when the production operation button BT is operated. I can recognize that.

  Hereinafter, various processes such as a special symbol input process and a special symbol start process executed by the main control CPU 30a of the main control board 30 based on the main control program will be described. In the present embodiment, the main control CPU 30a executes various processes such as a special symbol input process and a special symbol start process every predetermined control cycle (for example, 4 ms).

First, the special symbol input process will be described.
When the game ball enters the upper start winning opening 14 or the lower start winning opening 15, and the detection signal output from the start opening switches SW1 and SW2 that detect the game ball is input, the main control CPU 30a receives a big hit determination random number. The values of reach determination random number, special figure distribution random number, and variation pattern distribution random number are acquired from the main control RAM 30c. Then, the main control CPU 30a temporarily stores these values in the main control RAM 30c in association with the special figure start pending storage number stored in the main control RAM 30c. The main control CPU 30a rewrites the special figure start hold memory number by adding 1 to the special figure start hold memory number when the special figure start hold memory number does not reach the upper limit number (4 in the present embodiment). When the special figure start reserved memory number reaches the upper limit number, the special figure start reserved memory number exceeding the upper limit number is not rewritten, and the above-described various random number values are not acquired. The main control CPU 30a changes the display content (lighting mode) of the special symbol hold storage display device Ra when the special figure start hold storage number is rewritten. Further, the main control CPU 30a sets a hold designation command for instructing the added special figure start hold memory number to the transmission buffer so as to output to the effect control CPU 31a. The hold designation command is output in the control cycle from the next cycle.

Next, the special symbol start process will be described.
The main control CPU 30a determines whether or not the value of the special figure starting reserved memory number is larger than “0 (zero)” when the symbols (special symbols and decorative symbols) are not being displayed in a variable manner and not being a big hit game. (Whether or not there is a pending symbol variation game) is determined. If this determination is negative, there is no pending symbol variation game. In this case, the main control CPU 30a ends the special symbol start process. On the other hand, if the special figure start reserved memory number is 1 or more, the main control CPU 30a decrements the special figure start reserved memory number by -1 (1 subtraction) because there is a symbol variation game that is on hold. Further, the main control CPU 30a changes the display content (lighting mode) of the special symbol hold storage display device Ra so as to indicate the number of special figure start hold storage after 1 subtraction. Further, the main control CPU 30a sets a hold designation command instructing the number of special figure start hold memory after subtraction to the transmission buffer so as to output to the effect control CPU 31a.

  Thereafter, the main control CPU 30a reads the value of the jackpot determination random number stored in a predetermined storage area of the main control RAM 30c in association with the special figure start reserved storage number. Then, the main control CPU 30a compares the value with the big hit determination value, and makes a big hit determination (big hit lottery) as to whether or not it is a big hit. In the big hit determination, when the gaming state is an uncertain change state, the main control CPU 30a compares the low probability big hit determination value with the value of the big hit determination random number, while the gaming state is the positive change state. In this case, the jackpot determination value for high probability is compared with the value of the random number for jackpot determination. When the determination result of the big hit determination is affirmative, the main control CPU 30a determines the big hit symbol to be displayed on the special symbol display device 12 in a definite stop based on the acquired value of the special figure distribution random number. Note that since the special symbol jackpot symbol is set for each type of jackpot as described above, the jackpot symbol to be given to the player is determined by determining the jackpot symbol. In the present embodiment, the main control CPU 30a that determines the type of jackpot functions as a hit type determination unit. When the big hit is determined, the main control CPU 30a selects and determines the variation pattern for the big hit effect based on the random number for variation pattern distribution.

  Further, the main control CPU 30a determines the disengagement when the determination result of the big hit determination is negative. Then, the main control CPU 30a determines a symbol that is not a special symbol to be confirmed and stopped on the special symbol display device 12. Further, the main control CPU 30a which has determined the detachment compares the reach determination random number value with the reach determination value, and performs a reach determination as to whether or not to execute the detachment change.

  If the determination result of the reach determination is affirmative, the main control CPU 30a selects and determines the variation pattern for the outlier reach effect based on the value of the random number for variation pattern distribution. On the other hand, if the reach determination result is negative, the main control CPU 30a selects and determines the variation pattern for the off-line effect based on the value of the random number for variation pattern distribution.

  The main control CPU 30a that has determined the special symbol and the variation pattern outputs the control command generated according to the determined items to the effect control board 31 (effect control CPU 31a) at a predetermined timing. Specifically, the main control CPU 30a first outputs a variation pattern designation command instructing a variation pattern and instructing the start of the symbol variation game at the start of the symbol variation game. The main control CPU 30a outputs a special symbol stop symbol designating command for designating the special symbol, and then outputs the variation pattern designating command. Then, the main control CPU 30a outputs a symbol stop command for instructing the end of the symbol variation game (determination of symbol determination) when the variation time determined in the instructed variation pattern has elapsed, as the variation time elapses. .

  Further, the main control CPU 30a starts a big hit game corresponding to each big hit symbol after the symbol variation game ends when the big hit lottery is won. The main control CPU 30a that has finished each jackpot game sets “1” to the probability variation flag indicating that the probability variation state is to be imparted and provides the probability variation state when the probability variation state is imparted after the jackpot game is terminated. Outputs the specified probability change command. Further, the main control CPU 30a sets “0” in the probability variation flag when the non-probability variation state is given after the big hit game is over. In this case, the main control CPU 30a outputs a non-probability change command indicating that a non-probability change state is to be given. Similarly, the main control CPU 30a sets “1” to the operation flag indicating that the variable state is provided when the variable state is applied after the big hit game is over. In this case, the main control CPU 30a outputs a change command indicating that the change state is to be given. In this embodiment, the main control CPU 30a sets “100 times” as the number of times of operation when winning a big hit based on the special symbol B, and subtracts the number of times of operation every time the symbol variation game is executed. When the number of actuations becomes “0 (zero)”, the variable speed state is terminated and “0” is set in the actuation flag. In this case, the main control CPU 30a outputs a non-variable command indicating that the non-variable state is to be given. Thereby, the CPU 31a for production control can grasp whether or not a certain change state is currently given or whether or not a change state is given.

Next, the contents of control executed by the main control CPU 30a for normal symbols will be described.
When a game ball enters the normal symbol operation gate 19 and a detection signal output from the normal symbol variation switch SW4 that detects the game ball is input, the main control CPU 30a performs main control on the random number for determination per universal symbol. The value is acquired from the RAM 30c, and the value is temporarily stored in the main control RAM 30c in association with the number of storages of the starting reserved balls for normal symbols (hereinafter, referred to as the general figure starting storage number). Note that the main control CPU 30a rewrites the reserved memory number by adding 1 to the reserved memory number, while the ordinary chart start reserved memory number does not reach the upper limit number (4 in the present embodiment), When the storage number has reached the upper limit number, the reserved storage number exceeding the upper limit number is not rewritten, and the random number for determination per common map is not acquired.

  Then, the main control CPU 30a uses the normal symbol per unit determination stored in the main control RAM 30c in association with the number of reserved symbols stored in the main symbol when the normal symbol is not being displayed in a variable manner and is not in a game per general symbol. Read a random value. Then, the main control CPU 30a compares the value with the standard figure determination value, and performs a standard figure determination (lottery per standard figure) as to whether or not it is a standard figure. In the normal game hit determination, the main control CPU 30a compares the low-probability normal call hit determination value with the random number for normal call hit determination when the gaming state is the non-variable state. When the gaming state is the variable state, the determination value per common figure for high probability is compared with the value of the random number for determination per common figure.

  The main control CPU 30a controls the display content of the normal symbol display device 13 with the start of the general game. That is, the main control CPU 30a starts changing the normal symbol by starting the ordinary game, and displays the normal symbol (hit symbol or missed symbol) determined at the elapse of a predetermined fluctuation time in a fixed stop display. The main control CPU 30a sets different fluctuation times as the fluctuation times of the usual game according to the gaming state at the start of the usual game, and displays the normal symbols in a fixed stop state. Specifically, the main control CPU 30a sets “10 (seconds)” as the variation time in the non-variable state, and is shorter than the non-variable state as the variation time in the variable state. Set “1.1 (seconds)” as the time. Thereby, the fluctuation time of the usual game played in the variable state is shortened than the fluctuation time of the usual game played in the non-variable state.

  Further, the main control CPU 30a controls the opening mode of the opening / closing blades 16 in accordance with the gaming state at the time of hitting the normal game after the normal game corresponding to the normal game is over. Specifically, in the non-variable state, the main control CPU 30a opens the opening / closing blade 16 for the first number of times (for example, 1 (times)) in the first opening time (for example, 0.3 (seconds)). To control. In the variable state, the main control CPU 30a controls the opening / closing blade 16 to open for a second number of times (for example, 3 (times)) in a second opening time (for example, 1.4 (seconds)). .

Next, various processes executed by the effect control CPU 31a of the effect control board 31 based on the control program will be described.
When the change control designation command is input, the effect control CPU 31a selects the image display data based on the effect contents (variation contents) corresponding to the change pattern designated by the command. In addition, when the stop control designating command for special design is input, the effect control CPU 31a determines a decorative design to be displayed on the effect display device 11 in a definite stop according to the command.

  Specifically, when the stop symbol (special symbol) designated by the special symbol stop symbol designation command is a big hit symbol, the effect control CPU 31a determines a symbol combination that can recognize the big hit. In addition, when the stop symbol (special symbol) designated by the special symbol stop symbol designation command is a loss symbol, the effect control CPU 31a determines a symbol combination that can recognize the loss. At this time, when the variation pattern for the outlier reach effect is instructed, the effect control CPU 31a determines a symbol combination that can recognize the outbreak including the reach symbol combination (reach formation symbol). On the other hand, when the variation pattern for the offending effect is instructed, the effect control CPU 31a determines a symbol combination that can recognize the outbreak that does not include the reach symbol combination (reach formation symbol).

  Then, the effect control CPU 31a controls the display contents of the effect display device 11 so as to display an image of the symbol variation game on the basis of the image display data, and determines when the symbol stop command is input during the symbol variation game. The decorated symbol is displayed on the effect display device 11 in a fixed stop state, and the symbol variation game is terminated.

  In addition, when the effect control CPU 31a inputs a probability change command, the effect control CPU 31a sets information indicating that the probability change state is given to the effect control RAM 31c. Information indicating that the status is assigned is set. The effect control CPU 31a sets the information indicating that the change state is given to the effect control RAM 31c when the change command is input, while when the non-change command is input, the effect control RAM 31c. Is set to information indicating that the non-variable state is assigned to. Then, the effect control CPU 31a executes various controls such as changing the background image displayed on the back of the symbol according to the information set in the effect control RAM 31c.

  In the pachinko gaming machine of the present embodiment, an icon (type code) corresponding to the type of jackpot (special symbol type) determined when winning the jackpot lottery is set, and the icon is in the variable state. It is configured to display as a big hit history. The icons in this embodiment are visualized on the screen by replacing the types of jackpots with symbols, figures, codes, etc. in order to inform the player of the types of jackpots determined internally. Point to.

  The icons in this embodiment are set to three types as shown in FIG. More specifically, the icon a1 “◯ (circle)” is set as the icon corresponding to the special symbol A, and the icon b1 “Δ (triangle)” is set as the icon corresponding to the special symbol B. Yes. In addition, an icon c1 “□ (square)” is set as an icon corresponding to the special symbol C.

  These icons a1, b1, and c1 are displayed on the upper left portion of the image display unit GH after the big hit game ends. While the variable state continues, every time the big hit lottery is won, the previous icon is sequentially displayed from the upper left part to the upper right part of the image display part GH. Except during games). The “first jackpot game” refers to the first jackpot game that triggers the granting of the variable state. However, it does not matter whether or not the probability variation state is given after the big hit game ends. Further, the “previous icon” refers to an icon corresponding to the type of jackpot determined when the previous jackpot lottery is won on condition that the variable state continues.

  In the pachinko gaming machine according to the present embodiment, it is set to always give the variable state after the big hit game based on the special symbols A to C. As a result, if the big hit lottery is won again while the variable state is given, the variable state is newly given and the short state continues. As the variable state continues, the previous icon is continuously displayed.

  In addition, if the variable state is completed (after the big hit game based on the special symbol B is finished, the big bonus lottery is not won by the end of the 100 symbol variable games), the non-variable state is given. At the start of the first symbol variation game, various icons continuously displayed on the image display unit GH are erased (cleared). In addition, since the production control board 31 of this embodiment does not have a backup function, when the power is cut off while the variable state is being applied, various history records displayed after the next power-on are displayed. The icon is erased (cleared) from the image display portion GH.

  By displaying the icons a1, b1, and c1 as histories in this manner, the player can obtain the number of consecutive wins (number of consecutive resorts) for the big hit game after the first time under the condition that the variable state continues. Can be recognized. In addition, since various icons are set for each type of jackpot, the player can also recognize the type of jackpot that has been won in the past depending on the type of icon displayed.

Hereinafter, the control contents of the icon display process executed by the effect control board 31 in order to display various icons as a history will be described with reference to FIG.
First, the effect control CPU 31a determines whether or not a variation pattern designation command has been input from the main control CPU 30a (step S11). When the determination result is negative (no change pattern designation command is input), the effect control CPU 31a recognizes that the symbol change game has not started. For this reason, the effect control CPU 31a ends the icon display process.

  On the other hand, if the determination result in step S11 is affirmative (a variation pattern designation command is input), the effect control CPU 31a determines that the symbol designated by the special symbol stop symbol designation command is a jackpot symbol (special symbols A to C). It is determined whether or not (step S12). When this determination result is affirmative (big hit symbol), the effect control CPU 31a determines to display an icon corresponding to the big hit type specified by the special symbol stop symbol designation command as a history (step S13). . Thereby, the CPU 31a for effect control selects the image data for displaying the determined icon, and controls the effect display device 11 so as to display the determined icon as a history after the big hit game. If the icon has already been displayed when the icon is newly displayed, the effect control CPU 31a continuously displays the displayed icon without deleting it from the image display unit GH. The newly determined icon is displayed on the effect display device 11 so as to be located on the right side.

  In this way, the effect control CPU 31a determines whether or not to display an icon and the type of icon to be displayed based on the state of giving the variable state and the type of jackpot game. At this time, the effect control CPU 31a stores the determined icon as a big hit history in the effect control RAM 31c. Specifically, in order to display the icon determined in step S13, the presentation control CPU 31a determines the information (image data) for displaying the icon in the order of winning the big hit lottery and the history display order. It is stored in the effect control RAM 31c so as to be possible. As a result, the effect control CPU 31a can display icons that match the type of jackpot in the order of winning the jackpot lottery.

  The effect control CPU 31a ends the icon display process without clearing the value stored in the effect control RAM 31c as a history after the end of step S13. In other words, the big hit history stored in the effect control RAM 31c is stored and held without being cleared (erased) when the big win lottery is won. Therefore, the history set in the effect control RAM 31c is stored and held until the next jackpot game, triggered by the winning of the jackpot lottery in the state where the variable state is given. As a result, after the first big hit game, the various icons are inherited by multiple big hit games under the condition that the variable state continues, and accumulated by winning the big hit game after the first time. It will be.

  On the other hand, when the determination result in step S12 is negative (out of symbol), the effect control CPU 31a determines whether or not a variable state is given (step S14). It should be noted that the effect control CPU 31a determines whether or not the variable state is given by checking the information set in the effect control RAM 31c when the variable command or the non-variable command is input. When the determination result of step S14 is affirmative (an altered state is given), the effect control CPU 31a ends the icon display process. As a result, when the jackpot lottery is not won, the jackpot history set in the effect control RAM 31c is maintained, and the effect display device 11 does not change the type and number of icons being displayed. Continuously displayed.

  On the other hand, when the determination result of step S14 is negative (no change state is given), the effect control CPU 31a clears the jackpot history set in the effect control RAM 31c (step S15). At the same time, the effect control CPU 31a puts various icons displayed on the effect display device 11 into a non-display state. In the present embodiment, the state in which the variable state is not given is a state in which a big hit game is won after power-on, during a big hit game, or until 100 symbol variation games are executed after the 7R non-probable big hit game ends. Produced by not winning the jackpot lottery in between. In addition, when the jackpot lottery is won after clearing the history set in the effect control RAM 31c in step S15, the jackpot game executed according to the winning of the jackpot lottery becomes the first jackpot game, and the jackpot game is targeted. It will be the starting point for notification of the number of consecutive resorts.

  In the present embodiment, as shown in step S14, the history is maintained when the variable state is given, while the history is cleared when the variable state is not given. (Step S15). And the situation where the variable state is not given in this embodiment includes the case where the termination condition of the variable state is satisfied and the big hit game. In such a case, the stored content (history) of the jackpot is cleared on condition that the variable state is not given, but the variation pattern designation command is not output during the jackpot game. As a result, during the big hit game to which no change state is given, the process of step S15 is not executed because the change pattern designation command is not output (step S11 is negatively determined), so the history is not cleared. Accordingly, it is possible to display the history continuously and reliably after the end of the big hit game. In the present embodiment, the main control CPU 30a and the effect control CPU 31a function as history control means.

  Further, in the pachinko gaming machine according to the present embodiment, a notice effect that suggests a type of jackpot that can be determined when the running symbol variation game is a jackpot using the icons that are already displayed as the jackpot history (suggestion Production). Note that the “suggestion” in the present embodiment indicates a definitive suggestion that indicates that only one item is specified, and that it can take either two or more items, and that one item cannot be specified. There are non-deterministic suggestions. And the notice effect in this embodiment is performed in the aspect which blinks the icon currently displayed. In the present embodiment, when an icon is displayed as a jackpot history, the icon is displayed deterministically so that the player can recognize the jackpot history. On the other hand, when a notice effect is performed using an icon displayed as a history, the notice effect is performed by blinking the icon that is confirmed and stopped. Therefore, in the present embodiment, the blinking display of the icon is a suggestion mode different from the display mode displayed by the history control unit.

  Hereinafter, the control content of the notice process executed by the effect control board 31 in order to perform the notice effect using the various icons displayed as the history will be described with reference to FIG. Note that the advance notice process in this embodiment is executed in response to an input of a variation pattern designation command.

  First, the effect control CPU 31a determines whether or not the variable state is given by confirming the information set in the effect control RAM 31c when the variable command or the non-variable command is input (step S21). . If this determination result is affirmative (an altered state is given), the effect control CPU 31a determines whether the symbol designated by the special symbol stop symbol designation command is a jackpot symbol (special symbols A to C). It is determined whether or not (step S22). When the determination result is affirmative (big hit symbol), the effect control CPU 31a determines whether or not an icon corresponding to the determined big hit is already displayed (step S23). As described above, in the effect control RAM 31c, information (image data) for displaying icons is stored as a history so that the order of winning the big hit lottery and the display order of the history can be discriminated. Thereby, the CPU 31a for effect control can determine whether or not the icon corresponding to the determined jackpot is already displayed by reading the history of the jackpot stored in the RAM 31c for effect control. .

  If the determination result in step S23 is affirmative (the icon corresponding to the jackpot is already displayed), the effect control CPU 31a determines an icon to be notified, that is, an icon for executing the notification effect by blinking. (Step S24). Incidentally, when a plurality of icons corresponding to the jackpot are displayed in step S23, the effect control CPU 31a determines the latest icon of the plurality of icons as the subject to be notified. Thereafter, the effect control CPU 31a instructs the effect display device 11 to execute the notice effect by blinking the icon determined in step S24 after the reach formation (step S25). Then, the effect control CPU 31a ends the notice process. The effect control CPU 31a that has executed the notice effect ends the notice effect that is being executed after a lapse of a predetermined time from the start of the notice effect (before the end of the symbol variation game).

  On the other hand, when the determination result of step S21 is negative (no change state is given), when the determination result of step S22 is negative (missing symbol), or when the determination result of step S23 is negative (icon corresponding to jackpot Is not displayed), the effect control CPU 31a ends the notice process. In the present embodiment, since the history is not displayed in the non-variable state, if the determination result in step S21 is negative, the history itself to be notified does not exist. Thereby, the CPU 31a for effect control ends the notice process. Also, if the determination result in step S22 is negative, it will not be a big win, so it is not possible to suggest the type of big win given when winning the big win lottery based on the history. Thereby, the CPU 31a for effect control ends the notice process. If the determination result in step S23 is negative, the history corresponding to the type of jackpot is not displayed, and thus there is no history to be notified. Thereby, the CPU 31a for effect control ends the notice process. In the present embodiment, the main control CPU 30a and the effect control CPU 31a function as suggestion control means.

Next, a history display mode and a notification mode will be described with reference to FIG.
As shown in FIG. 6, it is assumed that the big hit corresponding to the special symbol A (15R-probable big hit game) is won in the state of “low probability + no change”. At this time, the effect control CPU 31a stores in the effect control RAM 31c that the special symbol A has been determined. By the way, in FIG. 6, since the variable state is not given at the start of the symbol variation game that won the jackpot corresponding to the special symbol A, the notice effect using the history is not executed during the symbol variation game. Yes. Then, after the end of the symbol variation game, the big hit game is started on the premise (time point g1). Then, after the big hit game ends (time point g2), an icon a1 corresponding to the special symbol A is displayed as a history on the upper left portion of the image display unit GH. Further, in the example shown in FIG. 6, since it is assumed that the big hit corresponding to the special symbol A is won as the first big hit game, the probable change state and the short change state are given after the big hit game ends.

  Subsequently, as shown by time point g2, it is assumed that the big winning lottery is not won in the first symbol variation game after the big winning game ends. In this case, during the symbol variation game, the history itself is continuously displayed without changing the type and number of icons, but the displayed icon a1 is not blinked (time point g2). Then, after the symbol variation game is played with the contents of the offense effect, it is assumed that the next symbol variation game is won again for the big hit corresponding to the special symbol A (the second winning of the special symbol A)). At this time, the effect control CPU 31a stores in the effect control RAM 31c that the special symbol A has been determined. Thereby, in the image display part GH, the icon a1 displayed as the history is blinked for a predetermined time after the formation of the reach based on the fact that the jackpot corresponding to the special symbol A is won again (time point) g3). As a result, the player recognizes that the symbol variation game being executed is a big hit, and that if the big win is reached, the big win corresponding to the special symbol A is reached. Then, after the running symbol variation game is ended, a big hit game composed of 15 round games is executed (time point g4), and a probable change state is given after the big hit game is finished. That is, as suggested by the blinking display of the icon a1 during the execution of the symbol variation game, the 15R probability variation big hit game is given.

  Then, after the big hit game ends (time point g5), the second icon a1 is displayed as a history on the right side of the first icon a1. As a result, it is possible to grasp from the history that the jackpot that gives the 15R probability variable jackpot game twice in succession has been won.

  After that, after the big hit game ends, it is assumed that the big win corresponding to the special symbol B is won in the first symbol variation game (time point g5). At this time, the effect control CPU 31a stores the fact that the special symbol B has been determined in the effect control RAM 31c. By the way, in FIG. 6, since the icon b1 corresponding to the special symbol B is not displayed at the start of the symbol variation game won in the big hit corresponding to the special symbol B, the history itself during the symbol variation game is the type and number of icons. Is continuously displayed without changing, but the notice effect using the history is not executed (time point g5).

  After that, after the running symbol variation game is being executed, a big hit game composed of seven round games is executed (time point g6), and only the variable state is given after the big hit game is finished. In addition, after the big hit game (time point g7), the first icon b1 is displayed as a history to the right of the second icon a1. Thereby, it can be grasped from the history that the 7R non-probable big hit game is won. In addition, in the example shown in FIG. 6, since it is premised that the jackpot corresponding to the special symbol B is won, after the jackpot game is finished, a variable state is given until 100 symbol variation games are finished. Will be.

  After that, it is assumed that the jackpot lottery is not won while the shortened state is given, and after the jackpot game is over, the shortened state is terminated as 100 symbol variation games are executed (time point g8). . In this case, in the image display unit GH, all icons displayed with the end of the variable state are hidden.

  Thus, according to the present embodiment, the notice effect using the jackpot history has won the jackpot lottery, and the icon corresponding to the type of jackpot determined by winning the jackpot lottery is already displayed. It will be executed only occasionally.

Therefore, according to the present embodiment, the following effects can be obtained.
(1) The icon (type code) is set according to the type of big hit (win). Then, the effect control CPU 31a (history control means) displays the big hit history with the icons, and the effect control CPU 31a (suggestion control means) displays the symbol variation game being executed using the icons displayed as the history. Suggests the types of jackpots that can be determined in the event of a jackpot. As a result, it is possible to easily grasp what kind of jackpot has been won by the player who is currently playing a game simply by visually recognizing the icon. At the same time, the role of the icon is not limited to only history display, and the range of effects can be expanded by suggesting the type of jackpot that can be determined when the symbol variation game being executed is a big hit using the history. Therefore, the added value of the icon itself can be increased.

  (2) Further, when the icon corresponding to the winning jackpot is not displayed, the notice effect is not executed, but it is also notified that the jackpot displayed as the history is not reached. In such a case, for example, on the assumption that a big hit finalizing effect different from the historical announcement using a history is performed during the symbol variation game, it is possible to recognize that it will be a big hit. It should be executed. Thereby, even when the icon is not displayed as a history, the fact that the icon is not displayed as a history itself may be an effect suggesting a type of jackpot. That is, when the icon b1 and the icon c1 are displayed as the history, the player can have an expectation that the 15R probability variation big hit game corresponding to the icon a1 not displayed as the history is given.

  (3) While the variable state is continuously given, the icon is displayed as a history. That is, the icon is displayed even when the probability variation state is not provided and only the variation state is imparted. As a result, for example, if a non-probability big hit is won during the probability change state, the probability change state is not given after the big hit game ends, but the icon is not erased due to the change state being given. Therefore, if you win the odds jackpot again during the change state, the probability change state will be given with the icon inherited, so even if the probability change state is not given to the player, Can be motivated to continue.

  (4) When a big win is continuously won while the variable state is given, an icon is displayed as a history accordingly. In other words, the greater the number of jackpots that are won during the change state, the more icons will be displayed, so the player will have a sense of superiority in winning the jackpot continuously. be able to.

  (5) The icon indicating the type of jackpot that has been won in the past can be used to guess what kind of jackpot the change will be, so when there are many icons displayed (the number of types of jackpots that have been won) It is easy to recognize the type of jackpot that can be determined when the player wins the symbol variation game being executed. In other words, even if you win the jackpot lottery, if the icon corresponding to the winning jackpot is not displayed as history, the notice effect will not be executed, so it will be more than one type of jackpot The winner will increase the types of icons subject to notice.

  (6) When the big hit lottery is won, the icon corresponding to the decided big hit is displayed blinking. In this embodiment, since the type of jackpot and the icon are associated one-to-one, the effect of the effect by the notice effect using the history can be maximized, and the type of the icon that is blinking is visually recognized. You can easily figure out which jackpot you are winning just by doing. In other words, since a big hit game that does not correspond to the icon displayed in blinking is not given, the player is not confused.

(Second Embodiment)
Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described.
Note that, in the embodiments described below, the same configurations and the same control contents as those of the already described embodiments are denoted by the same reference numerals, and redundant descriptions thereof are omitted or simplified.

  In the present embodiment, at the start of the symbol variation game won in the jackpot lottery, even if the icon corresponding to the type of the winning jackpot is not displayed as a history, the notice effect can be executed. Different from the first embodiment. Specifically, the notice effect is executed by additionally displaying the icon corresponding to the type of the winning jackpot in the symbol variation game in a mode (translucent in this embodiment) different from the display mode as the history. It is like that. After the big hit game, the icon displayed in a semi-transparent state is displayed as a history. Incidentally, the icon to be displayed as a history is definitely displayed in a mode having no transparency, so that the background image displayed behind the icon cannot be visually recognized. On the other hand, since the icon used in the notice effect is displayed in a transparent manner, the background image displayed behind the icon can be visually recognized. In addition, since the icon used in the notice effect is different from the icon displayed as the history, even if the icon is displayed in a semi-transparent state during the symbol variation game, the big hit history is notified by the icon. I don't mean. Therefore, in this embodiment, the icon displayed in a semi-transparent state is a suggestion mode different from the display mode displayed by the history control unit.

  Hereinafter, the control content of the notice process in the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. In the present embodiment, the description will focus on differences from the notice process (FIG. 5) in the first embodiment.

  The effect control CPU 31a performs the determinations of step S31 (determination of whether or not the variable state is given) and step S32 (determination of whether or not the big hit symbol has been determined), similar to the notice process in the first embodiment. . The CPU 31a for effect control that has affirmed the determination in step S32 determines the icon corresponding to the determined jackpot as the icon to be notified, without determining whether or not the icon corresponding to the determined jackpot is already displayed. (Step S33). At this time, the effect control CPU 31a stores the determined icon as a big hit history in the effect control RAM 31c.

  After that, the effect control CPU 31a instructs the effect display device 11 to execute the notice effect by displaying the icon determined in step S33 in a translucent state after the reach formation (step S34). Then, the effect control CPU 31a ends the notice process. It should be noted that the effect control CPU 31a that has executed the notice effect in the present embodiment ends the notice effect being executed at the start of the big hit game. Thereby, in this embodiment, even if the icon corresponding to the type of winning jackpot is not displayed as a history, the notice effect can be executed. In addition, when the big hit lottery is not won, the notice effect is not executed.

Hereinafter, the execution aspect of the notice effect using the history executed according to the flow of the notice process in the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS.
In FIG. 8A, it is assumed that two icons a1 are displayed by winning twice for the big hit corresponding to the special symbol A. In this state, it is assumed that the symbol variation game that is a big hit corresponding to the special symbol C is started. In this case, after the reach is formed, the icon c1 corresponding to the special symbol C is additionally displayed in a mode (translucent) different from the two icons a1 displayed as the history (FIG. 8B). As a result, when the player wins the big hit lottery, the player can easily expect to win the big win corresponding to the special symbol C.

  Thereafter, with the passage of a predetermined time, the symbol combination of the big hit is confirmed and stopped and the symbol variation game is ended. At this time, the icon c1 is continuously displayed in a semi-transparent state (FIG. 8 ( c)). In the present embodiment, even if any of the special symbols A to C is determined as the jackpot symbol, any symbol combination is determined from the same jackpot symbol combinations. Therefore, when the jackpot symbol combination is derived, the type of jackpot cannot be specified. Therefore, as in the present embodiment, in a pachinko gaming machine that cannot identify the type of jackpot from the jackpot symbol combination, the icon displayed in a semi-transparent state at the end of the symbol variation game is definitely displayed as a history. Then, before the big hit game starts, the type of big hit will be notified from the history. Thereby, in this embodiment, in order to notify the history after the end of the big hit game, at the end of the symbol variation game, the icon is continuously displayed in a semi-transparent state.

  Then, after the end of the symbol variation game, a big hit game constituted by seven round games is executed, and a probable change state is given after the big hit game is finished. That is, as suggested by the icon c1 during the execution of the symbol variation game, the 7R probability variation big hit game is given. Therefore, after the big hit game ends, the icon displayed in a semi-transparent state is definitely displayed as a history (FIG. 8D). Thereby, it can be determined from the history that the jackpot corresponding to the special symbol C has been won.

Therefore, according to this embodiment, in addition to the effects (1) to (4) of the first embodiment, the following effects can be obtained.
(7) When the winning control lottery 31a (suggestion control means) wins the big hit lottery, the icon (type code) corresponding to the big hit determined based on the big win lottery is determined, and the determined icon is halved. It is additionally displayed during the symbol variation game so as to be in a transparent state (suggestion mode). Then, the effect control CPU 31a (history control means) displays, as a history, an icon corresponding to the determined jackpot type instead of the semi-transparent icon after the jackpot game ends. Thus, regardless of the type of jackpot that has been won so far, it is possible to suggest the type of jackpot that can be determined when the running symbol variation game is a jackpot.

  (8) Since the display form of the icon as the history is different from the display form of the icon displayed during the symbol variation game, the icon displayed during the symbol variation game and the icon as the history are not confused.

(Third embodiment)
Next, a third embodiment of the present invention will be described.
In the present embodiment, the notice effect is executed using only the displayed icon corresponding to the determined jackpot type, and the displayed icon corresponding to the determined jackpot type and the determined jackpot are supported. It differs from the first embodiment in that the notice effect may be executed using other icons that are not performed.

Hereinafter, the control content of the notice process in the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. Note that the advance notice process in this embodiment is executed in response to an input of a variation pattern designation command.
First, the effect control CPU 31a determines whether or not a variable state is given (step S41), as in step S21 in FIG. When the determination result is affirmative (an altered state is given), the effect control CPU 31a determines whether or not the jackpot symbol is the same as in step S22 in FIG. 5 (step S42). When this determination result is affirmative (big hit symbol), the effect control CPU 31a checks the number of displayed icons corresponding to the determined big hit (step S43). At this time, as in the first embodiment, the effect control CPU 31a reads the jackpot history stored in the effect control RAM 31c to confirm the display number of the icon corresponding to the jackpot.

  Then, the effect control CPU 31a checks whether or not the number of icons displayed in step S43 is one or more (step S44). If the determination result is affirmative (one or more icons corresponding to the jackpot are displayed), the effect control CPU 31a determines an icon to be notified (step S45).

  Specifically, when a plurality of icons corresponding to the determined jackpot are displayed, the effect control CPU 31a sets the number of icons confirmed in step S44 as the upper limit and sets “1” as the lower limit, Determine the number of icons to be used. For example, when the jackpot corresponding to the special symbol A is determined and the three icons a1 corresponding to the special symbol A are displayed, the selection range of the number of icons to be notified is “1”, “ “2” and “3”. Therefore, the CPU 31a for effect control determines the number of icons to be notified, from “1”, “2”, or “3” at substantially the same ratio. Incidentally, in this embodiment, the random numbers for selection are distributed so that “1”, “2”, or “3” is determined at substantially the same ratio. Then, the effect control CPU 31a, which has determined the number of icons to be notified, stores the number in the effect control RAM 31c.

  Thereafter, the effect control CPU 31a checks whether or not the number of other icons not corresponding to the determined jackpot is one or more (step S46). If the determination result is affirmative (one or more other icons are displayed), the effect control CPU 31a determines the number of icons to be notified for each other icon (step S47). Specifically, the CPU 31a for effect control confirms the display number for each other icon and determines the number of other icons to be notified in advance so as not to exceed the number determined in step S45.

  For example, it is assumed that when the jackpot corresponding to the special symbol A is determined, three icons a1 corresponding to the special symbol A and three icons b1 corresponding to the special symbol B are displayed. In this case, it is assumed that the selection range of the icon a1 to be notified is “1”, “2”, and “3”, and the effect control CPU 31a determines “2”. At this time, the effect control CPU 31a determines the number of other icons b1 to be notified from “0”, “1”, and “2” at substantially the same ratio. Thereby, in this embodiment, when the icon corresponding to the determined type of jackpot is displayed as the history, the notice effect is not executed using only the other icons. Then, the effect control CPU 31a, which has determined the number of other icons to be notified, stores the number and type in the effect control RAM 31c.

  Thereafter, the CPU 31a for effect control confirms the number of displays for each other icon determined in step S47, and determines whether or not the total number of displays is one or more (step S48). That is, if one or more other icons to be notified are selected in step S47, the effect control CPU 31a makes a positive determination in step S48. On the other hand, if “0” is selected as the number of other icons to be notified in step S47, the effect control CPU 31a makes a negative determination in step S48.

  If the determination in step S48 is affirmative (the number of other icons to be notified is “1” or more), the effect control CPU 31a blinks the icon corresponding to the determined jackpot and the other icons after the reach formation. The effect display device 11 is instructed to display the notice effect by displaying (step S49). On the other hand, if the determination result in step S46 or step S48 is negative, the effect control CPU 31a performs the notice effect by causing only the icon corresponding to the determined jackpot to blink after the reach formation. 11 (step S50). Thereafter, the effect control CPU 31a ends the notice process.

  On the other hand, if the determination result in step S41 is negative (no change state is given), the determination result in step S42 is negative (missing symbol), or the determination result in step S44 is negative (an icon corresponding to a big hit) Is not displayed), the effect control CPU 31a ends the notice process.

  Thereby, in this embodiment, when the icon corresponding to the determined type of jackpot is displayed as the history, the notice effect using only the icon corresponding to the jackpot, or the icon corresponding to the jackpot and other icons are displayed. The used notice effect can be executed. In the present embodiment, a negative determination using step S44 does not execute a notice effect using only icons that do not correspond to the determined type of jackpot. In other words, when the big hit lottery is won, the notice effect including the icons corresponding to the determined type of the big hit is always executed.

Hereinafter, the execution aspect of the notice effect using the history executed according to the flow of the notice process in the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS.
In FIG. 10A, it is assumed that the big hit corresponding to the special symbol A is won. In FIG. 10A, three icons a1, one icon b1, and one icon c1 displayed as a history are displayed blinking. In this case, since the number of blinking icons a1 is larger than that of the icons b1 and c1, it is suggested that when winning the big hit lottery, it is highly likely that the big hit corresponding to the icon a1 will be made. On the other hand, in FIG. 10B, it is assumed that the jackpot corresponding to the special symbol B is won. In FIG. 10B, one icon a1, one icon b1, and one icon c1 displayed as a history are displayed blinking. In this case, since the number of blinking of all the icons a1, b1, and c1 is the same, it is suggested that every jackpot may be determined with almost the same probability.

Therefore, according to this embodiment, in addition to the effects (1) to (6), the following effects can be obtained.
(9) The effect control CPU 31a (suggesting control means) suggests a jackpot type using only the icon corresponding to the determined jackpot type among the icons (type codes) already displayed; The icon corresponding to the determined jackpot type and other icons may be used to suggest the jackpot type. Thus, if an icon corresponding to the determined jackpot type is already displayed as a history, the player can guess the jackpot type by suggesting the jackpot type using the icon. . Further, when the type of jackpot is suggested using the icon corresponding to the determined type of jackpot and other icons, it can be expected that the jackpot corresponding to any of the icons will be achieved.

  (10) Every time a notice effect is executed, an icon to be noticed is determined. As a result, when the next notice effect is executed, the number displayed as the history may increase or a different value may be determined as the display number. Is possible.

  (11) Even if any of the special symbols A to C is determined as a jackpot symbol, the symbol combination is determined to be determined from the same jackpot symbol combinations. As a result, when multiple types of icons flash and display the same number, it is impossible to recognize which jackpot is won from the flashing mode and jackpot symbol combination, so the jackpot that is most advantageous to the player Can be expected to win.

(Fourth embodiment)
Next, a fourth embodiment of the present invention will be described.
This embodiment is different from the first embodiment in that a notice effect using a history can be executed not only when a big win is won but also when a reach lottery is won.

  Hereinafter, the control content of the notice process in the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. In the present embodiment, the description will focus on differences from the notice process (FIG. 5) in the first embodiment.

  If the determination result in step S22 is negative (out of symbol), the effect control CPU 31a determines whether or not execution of the outlier reach effect is determined by determining whether or not a variation pattern for outlier reach effect is instructed. It is determined whether or not (step S26). When this determination result is affirmative, the CPU 31a for effect control confirms whether or not the number of icons displayed at the time when the determination in step S22 is performed is one or more (step S27). If the determination result is affirmative (one or more icons are displayed), the effect control CPU 31a determines an icon to be notified (step S28).

  Specifically, regardless of the type of icon, the effect control CPU 31a determines the icon to be notified, with “1” as the upper limit and “0” as the lower limit of the total display number. For example, when three icons a1 and c1 are displayed, the effect control CPU 31a determines that only one of the icon a1 or the icon c1 is to be displayed, and “0”. May be determined. Incidentally, in the present embodiment, when the notice effect is executed when the big hit lottery is not won, the random numbers for selection are distributed so that the probability that “0” is most selected is high. Then, the CPU 31a for effect control that has determined the icon to be notified is stored in the RAM 31c for effect control for displaying the icon.

  Thereafter, the CPU 31a for effect control confirms whether or not the notice effect is to be executed by confirming whether or not the number of displayed icons determined in step S28 is one (step S28). S29). That is, if “1” is selected as the number of icons to be notified in step S28, the presentation control CPU 31a makes a positive determination in step S29. If step S29 is affirmatively determined (the notice effect is executed), the effect control CPU 31a proceeds to step S25. On the other hand, when “0” is selected as the number of icons to be notified in step S28, the effect control CPU 31a makes a negative determination in step S29. Thereafter, the effect control CPU 31a ends the notice process. Further, if the determination in step S26 is negative (no reach), or if the determination in step S27 is negative (the number of displayed icons is 0), the effect control CPU 31a ends the notice process.

  When the process proceeds to step S25 through step S29, the effect control CPU 31a instructs the effect display device 11 to execute the notice effect by blinking the icon determined in step S28 after the reach formation. However, in this case, even if the icon is displayed in a blinking manner, at the end of the symbol variation game, the out-of-order symbol combination including the reach symbol is displayed in a fixed stop state. On the other hand, if the determination result in step S29 is negative (not performing the notice effect), the effect control CPU 31a ends the notice process. Thereby, according to this embodiment, even if it is a case where the big hit lottery is not won, the notice effect using the history is executed.

Therefore, according to this embodiment, in addition to the effects (1) to (6), the following effects can be obtained.
(12) The effect control CPU 31a selects the type of jackpot that can be determined when the symbol variation game being executed is a big win using the icons displayed as the history even if the jackpot lottery is not won. Suggested so-called Gase production was executed. Thereby, until the symbol variation game is finished, it can be expected to be a big hit by executing the notice effect using the history. In addition, the execution probability of the notice effect increases.

(Fifth embodiment)
Next, a fifth embodiment of the present invention will be described.
This embodiment is different from the second embodiment in that a notice effect using a history can be executed not only when a big win is won but also when a reach lottery is won.

  Hereinafter, the control content of the notice process in the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. In the present embodiment, the description will focus on differences from the notice process (FIG. 7) in the second embodiment.

  When the determination result in step S32 is negative (out of symbol), the effect control CPU 31a determines whether or not execution of the outlier reach effect is determined (step S35). If this determination result is affirmative, the effect control CPU 31a determines whether or not to execute the notice effect by lottery (step S36). In step S36, when the big hit lottery is not won, the random number for selection is set so that the probability of selecting the “execution failure” of the notice effect is higher than the “executable” of the notice effect. Is distributed. If the determination result of step S36 is affirmative (notice effect is executed), the effect control CPU 31a proceeds to step S33. In addition, when it transfers to step S33 through step S36, CPU31a for presentation control determines the kind of icon made into a notice object in a substantially identical ratio. Then, the CPU 31a for effect control that has determined the icon to be notified is stored in the RAM 31c for effect control for displaying the icon. Thereafter, the effect control CPU 31a proceeds to the process of step S34. On the other hand, if the determination result in step S35 is negative (no reach), or if the determination result in step S36 is negative (execution failure), the effect control CPU 31a ends the notice process.

  Then, when the process proceeds to step S34 via step S36, the effect control CPU 31a causes the effect display device 11 to execute the notice effect by causing the icon determined in step S33 after the reach formation to be displayed in a translucent state. Instruct. However, in this case, even if the icon is displayed in a translucent state, the symbol combination including the reach symbol is finally displayed in a fixed stop state. Thereafter, the effect control CPU 31a erases (hides) the icon displayed in the semi-transparent state from the effect display device 11 in accordance with the end of the symbol variation game. Therefore, the icon displayed in the semi-transparent state is displayed. Will not remain as a history. Thereby, according to this embodiment, even if it is a case where the big hit lottery is not won, the notice effect using the history is executed.

Therefore, according to this embodiment, in addition to the effects (1) to (4), (7), and (8), the following effects can be obtained.
(13) The effect control CPU 31a executes a notice effect (so-called “gase effect”) using an icon even when the big hit lottery is not won. Thereby, until the symbol variation game is finished, it can be expected that a big hit will be obtained by executing the notice effect using the icon. In addition, the execution probability of the notice effect increases. In addition, when the big hit lottery is not won, the icon displayed in a semi-transparent state is erased, so that even if a notice effect is executed at the time of losing, the player is not confused.

  (14) In the notice effect in the present embodiment, the icon is not displayed deterministically during the symbol variation game, but is displayed in a semi-transparent state. Therefore, when the notice effect is executed, the icon is displayed. It is possible to raise expectations for the possibility of winning the jackpot. For example, if you win the jackpot corresponding to the special symbol B, the icon subject to notice will be the icon b1, but it is not necessarily displayed as history, so win the other jackpot You can have expectations about the possibility of being.

(Sixth embodiment)
Next, a sixth embodiment of the present invention will be described.
This embodiment is different from the third embodiment in that a notice effect using a history can be executed not only when a big win is won but also when a reach lottery is won.

  Hereinafter, the control content of the notice process in this embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. In the present embodiment, the description will focus on differences from the notice process (FIG. 9) in the third embodiment.

  In step S45, the effect control CPU 31a determines the number of icons to be notified, with the number of icons confirmed in step S44 as the upper limit and “1” as the lower limit. For example, when the jackpot corresponding to the special symbol A is determined and the three icons a1 corresponding to the special symbol A are displayed, the selection range of the number of icons to be notified is “1”, “ “2” and “3”. In the present embodiment, the selection random numbers are distributed so that the selection probability increases in the order of “1” <“2” <“3”.

  When the determination result in step S42 is negative (out of symbol), the effect control CPU 31a determines whether or not execution of the outlier reach effect is determined (step S51). When this determination result is affirmative, the CPU 31a for effect control confirms whether or not the number of icons displayed at the time of determination in step S42 is one or more regardless of the type of icon (step S52). . If the determination result is affirmative (one or more icons are displayed), the effect control CPU 31a determines the number of icons to be notified (step S53).

  Specifically, the CPU 31a for effect control determines the number of icons to be notified by setting the upper limit to the value obtained by subtracting 1 from the display number of all icons confirmed in step S52 and setting “0” as the lower limit. As a result, when the notice effect is executed when the big hit lottery is not won, the notice effect is not executed with all the displayed icons. In other words, only when the jackpot lottery is won, all the icons corresponding to the jackpot type are blinked. Incidentally, in the present embodiment, when the notice effect is executed when the big hit lottery is not won, the selection random numbers are distributed so that the number selected as the notice target is reduced. In the present embodiment, when the jackpot lottery is won, the number of displayed icons corresponding to the jackpot determined is set to be larger than when the jackpot lottery is not won. From the displayed number, it is possible to suggest the possibility of a big hit corresponding to the icon. In the present embodiment, when the big hit lottery is not won, all displayed icons are not blinked, so all the icons displayed only when the big hit lottery is won. Will not flash. That is, the possibility of a big hit is suggested from the number of blinking icons displayed as the history. Then, the effect control CPU 31a, which has determined the number of icons to be notified by lottery, stores the number and icon type in the effect control RAM 31c.

  Thereafter, the effect control CPU 31a checks the number of displayed icons determined in step S53, and determines whether or not the total number displayed is one or more (step S54). That is, if one or more icons to be notified are selected in step S53, the effect control CPU 31a makes a positive determination in step S54. On the other hand, if “0” is selected as the number of icons to be notified in step S53, the effect control CPU 31a makes a negative determination in step S54.

  If the determination in step S54 is affirmative (the number of icons to be previewed is “1” or more), the effect control CPU 31a flashes and displays the icon determined in step S53 after the reach is formed. The effect display device 11 is instructed to execute (step S55). However, in this case, even if the icon is displayed in a blinking manner, at the end of the symbol variation game, the out-of-order symbol combination including the reach symbol is displayed in a fixed stop state. If the determination result in step S51, step S52, or step S54 is negative, the effect control CPU 31a ends the notice process.

  Thereby, according to this embodiment, even if it is a case where the big hit lottery is not won, the notice effect using the history is executed. However, the notice effect is not executed with all icons as the displayed history.

Hereinafter, the execution mode of the notice effect using the history executed according to the flow of the notice process in the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS.
In FIG. 14A, it is assumed that the big hit lottery is not won. In FIG. 14A, two of the three icons a1 displayed as the history are blinking, while one icon b1 displayed as the history is blinking. . Furthermore, one of the two icons c1 displayed as the history is blinking. On the other hand, in FIG. 14 (b), it is assumed that the jackpot corresponding to the special symbol A is won. In FIG. 14B, two icons a1 displayed as a history are blinking, while one icon b1 displayed as a history is blinking. Furthermore, two icons c1 displayed as history are displayed blinking.

  The example shown in FIG. 14A is not a jackpot finalizing effect, but since the number of flashing icons a1 is larger than other icons, the jackpot game corresponding to the special symbol A is given in the case of a big hit. It is suggested that there is a high possibility that Further, the example shown in FIG. 14A is a combination that can be executed even when a big hit game corresponding to the special symbol A is given. On the other hand, the example shown in FIG. 14B is a big hit confirmation effect by blinking all icons displayed as history. However, since the number of blinking of the icon a1 and the icon c1 is the same number, it can be recognized that the big hit is won, but the big hit game corresponding to the special symbol A or the big winning corresponding to the special symbol C from the blinking mode. It cannot be definitively suggested whether a game is awarded. In the present embodiment, the number of blinks of the same icon to be notified will indicate the probability of a big hit corresponding to the icon in the case of a big hit.

Therefore, according to this embodiment, in addition to the effects (1) to (6) and (9) to (12), the following effects can be obtained.
(15) When the number of the same icon to be notified is a big hit, the probability of a big hit corresponding to the icon is suggested. As a result, the number of icons corresponding to a specific jackpot used for suggestion can be directly associated with the probability of a jackpot corresponding to the icon, and an effect that is easy to understand for the player can be realized.

  (16) When winning the jackpot lottery and when the icon corresponding to the jackpot determined by winning the jackpot lottery is displayed as history, the effect control CPU 31a blinks and displays all the icons corresponding to the jackpot lottery. At the same time, all the other icons being displayed may be blinked. As a result, even if all the displayed icons are not blinking, it can be expected that the winning lottery is won based on the type and number of icons that are blinking. When all the icons inside are blinking, the effect can be positioned as a definitive effect indicating that the jackpot lottery is won.

(Seventh embodiment)
Next, a seventh embodiment of the present invention will be described.
In the present embodiment, the fact that the symbol variation game which becomes the big hit is included in the symbol variation game which is based on the special figure starting reservation memory number which is remembered in the main control RAM 30c at the time of starting the big hit game is notified. The hold notice effect is configured to be executable. Then, as a holding notice effect, an icon displayed as a history is used to suggest which type of jackpot is determined when the jackpot is reached. Note that the pending notice effect of the present embodiment defines the ending effect as an execution period, and ends after a lapse of a predetermined time from the start of the ending effect. In the present embodiment, the icon is displayed as a history even during the big hit game.

Hereinafter, the control content for performing the hold notice effect will be described.
The main control CPU 30a executes a pre-determination process before the special symbol start process, that is, in the special symbol input process, to determine whether or not the value of the big hit determination random number is a value for winning the big hit lottery. .

  In the pre-determination process, the main control CPU 30a compares the acquired jackpot determination random number value with the low-probability jackpot determination value, and determines whether or not both values match. When the determination result is affirmative, the main control CPU 30a determines that the symbol variation game based on the start-pending ball that is the target of winning detection is regardless of the gaming state at the time of the big hit lottery (whether in the probability variation state or the non-probability variation state) Recognize in advance that it will be a big hit. In this case, the main control CPU 30a determines a special symbol (big hit symbol) corresponding to the special symbol allocation random number value read together with the big hit determination random number value. Further, the main control CPU 30a determines the number of special figure start suspension stored in the main control RAM 30c.

  Next, the main control CPU 30a generates a pre-determination command based on the determined special symbol type and the number of special figure start hold memories, and transmits the command for output to the effect control board 31 (effect control CPU 31a). Set to buffer. Specifically, the main control CPU 30a transmits a prior determination command “A1HxxH” when the special symbol A is determined, and a prior determination command “A2HxxH” when the special symbol B is determined. Set to. In addition, when the special symbol C is determined, the main control CPU 30a sets the advance determination command “A3HxxH” in the transmission buffer. Note that “xxH” in each pre-determination command indicates the number of special figure start pending storage. Thereafter, the main control CPU 30a ends the special symbol input process (preliminary determination process).

Next, the contents of control executed when the production control CPU 31a inputs a prior determination command will be described.
Each time the effect control CPU 31a inputs a pre-determining command from the main control CPU 30a, the value of the input pre-determining command is set to the special figure start pending storage number (1 to 4) designated by the pre-determining command. Correspondingly stored in the effect control RAM 31c. In addition, each time the effect control CPU 31a inputs a variation pattern designation command from the main control CPU 30a, the effect control CPU 31a newly associates the current special figure start hold memory number with -1 (1 subtraction). To store the value of the advance judgment command.

Next, the contents of control executed by the effect control CPU 31a to execute the hold notice effect will be described.
When the opening control command is input, the effect control CPU 31a reads the effect control RAM 31c and determines whether or not a prior determination command is stored. When the determination result is affirmative, the effect control CPU 31a determines to execute the hold notice effect. The effect control CPU 31a that has decided to execute the hold notice effect reads the advance determination command and confirms the type of the special symbol specified by the command. Then, the effect control CPU 31a stores the confirmed special symbol type and confirms whether an icon corresponding to the special symbol type (an icon corresponding to the determined jackpot) is displayed. If the icon corresponding to the determined jackpot is displayed as a history, the effect control CPU 31a performs the notice effect by causing the determined icon to blink at the start of the ending effect. The display content of the display device 11 is controlled. On the other hand, when the icon corresponding to the determined jackpot is not displayed as the history, the effect control CPU 31a does not execute the notice effect using the history. When a plurality of big hits exist in the symbol variation game that is on hold, first, a hold notice effect corresponding to the start hold ball that is the earliest big hit is executed. Therefore, in one hold notice effect, a notice effect for one start hold ball is executed.

Hereinafter, the execution mode of the hold notice effect executed according to the control content described above will be described with reference to FIGS.
In FIG. 15, the special figure start hold memory number before the start of the big hit game is “4”, and the symbol variation game corresponding to the special figure start hold memory number “1” corresponds to the special symbol C. It is assumed that it will be a big hit. Also, it is assumed that the symbol variation game being executed is a big hit corresponding to the special symbol A. Further, it is assumed that one icon a1 and one icon c1 are already displayed as a history on the image display unit GH.

  Since the symbol variation game being executed is “hit” by the premise, after the symbol variation game is ended, the symbol combination (“333” in this example) is confirmed and stopped (FIG. 15A). The jackpot game is started. At this time, the presentation control CPU 31a determines whether or not a pre-determination command is stored when the opening command is input. However, based on the premise, the symbol corresponding to the special figure start pending storage number “1” is determined. It is determined in advance that the variable game will be a big hit corresponding to the special symbol C.

  Then, during the ending effect, based on the fact that the icon c1 corresponding to the special symbol C has already been displayed, the notice effect by the blinking display of the icon c1 is executed (FIG. 15B). Thereby, the player can recognize that one of the four symbol variation games on hold is a big hit corresponding to the special symbol C. In addition, since the jackpot corresponding to the special symbol A was won in the symbol variation game played immediately before, the second icon a1 is displayed as a history to the right of the icon c1 after the jackpot game ends (FIG. 15 (c)). )).

  Then, after the big hit game is over, the symbol variation game based on the special symbol start reserved memory number “1” is started (FIG. 15 (c)), and the symbol combination is fixedly stopped and displayed as the predetermined time elapses. The variable game ends (FIG. 15 (d)). At this time, the symbol combination of the big hit is displayed in a fixed stop state based on the premise (in this example, “222”), so that the big hit is won as suggested by the blinking display of the icon c1 during the ending effect. Based on the premise, a certainty change state is given after the big hit game composed of seven round games, and after the big hit game is finished, the second icon c1 on the right side of the second icon a1 in the image display unit GH. Is displayed as a history (FIG. 15E). Thereby, as suggested by the blinking display of the icon c1, it can be seen that the 7R probability variation big hit game is given.

Therefore, according to this embodiment, in addition to the effect (1), the following effects can be obtained.
(17) When the big hit lottery is won, the big hit prefetch is performed among the game balls stored during the big hit. As a result, when a start-holding ball that is a big hit is included in the start-holding ball, the fact that the player has a strong desire to know in advance (whether the start-holding ball that is a big hit is included) And the type of jackpot) using the icons displayed as the history, the player's interest can be sufficiently enhanced.

  (18) Even if the icon is displayed blinking, it is not informed until which of the pending start-up balls is a big hit and how many start-up hold balls that are a big hit are included. It is possible to make a big hit expectation for all of the starting and holding balls on hold.

(Eighth embodiment)
Next, an eighth embodiment of the present invention will be described.
In the present embodiment, a continuous effect is executed based on the processing result of the prior determination process. In addition, the continuous effect is a predetermined effect in each symbol variation game from one or more symbol variation games performed before a specific symbol variation game (in this embodiment, the last symbol variation game). This is an effect of notifying that there is a possibility that a specific symbol variation game may be a big hit by executing the effect across a plurality of consecutive symbol variation games. The predetermined effect in the present embodiment is executed in such a manner that a specific image dedicated to the continuous effect is displayed on the image display unit GH after the start of the symbol variation game. In the present embodiment, the continuous effect is not executed when the continuous effect has already been executed, and when the special figure start reserved memory number specified by the prior determination command is “1”. And in this embodiment, it is suggested which kind of jackpot is decided when it becomes a big hit using the icon displayed as a history with a continuous production.

Hereinafter, the control content for performing a continuous effect is demonstrated.
The main control CPU 30a sets the starting hold ball as the determination target as the last symbol variation game in the continuous performance according to the determination result of the prior determination process, and is executed before the target start hold ball of the symbol variation game. A predetermined effect is executed from the symbol variation game corresponding to the starting hold ball.

  Then, the effect control CPU 31a that has input the advance determination command sets an execution flag indicating that the continuous effect is being executed in the effect control RAM 31c and determines the execution of the continuous effect. Is set in the effect control RAM 31c according to the hold information shown in FIG. Then, after setting the execution flag and the number of times, the effect control CPU 31a executes a predetermined effect with the start of the symbol variation game every time the variation pattern designation command for the number of times is input. 11 display contents are controlled. The effect control CPU 31a subtracts 1 from the number of times each time a variation pattern designation command is input, and clears the execution flag when the number of times becomes “0 (zero)”.

  In addition, the CPU 31a for effect control that has decided to execute the continuous effect reads a pre-determination command at the start of the first symbol variation game for executing the continuous effect, and confirms the type of the special symbol specified by the command. Then, the effect control CPU 31a stores the confirmed special symbol type and confirms whether an icon corresponding to the stored special symbol type (an icon corresponding to the determined jackpot) is displayed. . If the icon corresponding to the determined jackpot is displayed as a history, the CPU 31a for effect control causes the determined icon to blink and display the notice effect at the start of each symbol variation game. The display content of the effect display device 11 is controlled. On the other hand, when the icon corresponding to the determined jackpot is not displayed as the history, the effect control CPU 31a does not execute the notice effect using the history.

Hereinafter, the execution mode of the notice effect using the history executed according to the control content described above will be described with reference to FIGS.
In FIG. 16, it is assumed that a continuous effect is executed over three symbol variation games, and the last symbol variation game in which the continuous effect ends is a big hit corresponding to the special symbol C. . Further, it is assumed that the image display unit GH displays two icons a1 as a history and one icon c1 as a history.

  In the image display unit GH, at the start of the symbol variation game in which the first continuous effect is executed, a predetermined effect constituting the continuous effect is executed, and a notice effect using the icon c1 displayed as a history is displayed. This is executed (FIG. 16A). Thereafter, the symbol combination (in this example, “123”) deviating from the predetermined time elapses is confirmed and stopped, and the first continuous effect ends (FIG. 16B). At the end of the symbol variation game, the blinking display of the icon c1 ends.

  Thereafter, in the image display unit GH, a second continuous effect is started and a notice effect using the icon c1 is executed (FIG. 16C). Thereafter, the symbol combination (in this example, “135”) deviating from the predetermined time elapses is confirmed and stopped, and the second continuous effect ends (FIG. 16D). Thereafter, in the image display unit GH, a third continuous effect is started and a notice effect using the icon c1 is executed (FIG. 16E). Then, according to the preconditions, the symbol combination (in this example, “333”) of the big hit is confirmed and stopped with the passage of a predetermined time, and the third (final) continuous production ends (FIG. 16F). ). As a result, as indicated by the blinking display of the icon c1 during the continuous performance, the jackpot is won.

  Based on the premise, a big hit game composed of seven round games based on the special symbol C is started, and a probable change state is given after the big hit game ends. Then, after the big hit game ends, the second icon c1 is displayed as a history on the right side of the first icon c1 in the image display unit GH (FIG. 16 (g)). Thereby, as suggested by the blinking display of the icon c1, it can be seen that the 7R probability variation big hit game is given.

Therefore, according to this embodiment, in addition to the effect (1), the following effects can be obtained.
(19) In the continuous performance, by suggesting the type of jackpot in the case of winning a big hit using the history, not only the number of symbol variation games executed with the continuous performance but also the type of icon to be notified Can also be interested.

(Ninth embodiment)
Next, a ninth embodiment of the present invention will be described.
In the present embodiment, an icon displayed as a history is set as a selection effect choice executed in the roulette format, and the effect of deriving a result corresponding to the selected option is configured to be executable. Different from the first embodiment.

Hereinafter, the configuration of the roulette in the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS.
The selection effect in this embodiment is executed after reach formation in the image display unit GH. In the selection effect, the suggestion image SG is associated with each divided region obtained by dividing one circle E into a plurality of regions, and the suggestion image SG is selected from the plurality of suggestion images SG. Specifically, each suggestion image SG is rotated and displayed clockwise on the circle E at a speed that the player cannot visually recognize, and an arrow Y is displayed on the specific suggestion image SG by operating the effect operation button BT. Is executed in such a manner as to pierce. Then, the result determined for the selected suggestion image SG (with the arrow Y pierced) is finally executed.

  In the present embodiment, six types of suggestion images SG are set. Specifically, the first suggestion image SG1 with a message consisting of “big hit” selected only when the big win lottery is won, and when the big hit lottery is won or the reach lottery is won. And a second suggestion image SG2 in which a message consisting of “chance” selected is set. Further, the third suggestion image SG3 in which a message consisting of “sorry” is selected only when the reach lottery is won and the jackpot corresponding to the special symbol A is selected only when “win” is won. 15R "is set and a fourth suggestion image SG4 is set. In addition, the fifth suggestion image SG5 in which a message consisting of “7R non” is selected only when the jackpot corresponding to the special symbol B is won, and the jackpot corresponding to the special symbol C is won. A sixth suggestion image SG6 in which a message consisting of “7R certain” selected only in the case is described.

  In the present embodiment, the first suggestion image SG1 to the third suggestion image SG3 are displayed on the circle E so that they can always be selected as options. On the other hand, as shown in FIGS. 17A to 17C, icons corresponding to each jackpot are not displayed during the execution of the selection effect from the fourth suggestion image SG4 to the sixth suggestion image SG6. And it is not displayed as a choice. In the selection effect of the present embodiment, the result determined in the selected suggestion image SG is finally executed. Therefore, as the number of options increases, a result more advantageous to the player may be executed. Becomes higher. That is, the choices increase as various types of jackpots are determined by winning the jackpot lottery.

  Hereinafter, the control content executed by the effect control CPU 31a in order to execute the selected effect will be described. It should be noted that the selection effect is executed only when the big win lottery or the reach lottery is won.

  When the selection effect is executed, the effect control CPU 31a checks the type of icon displayed as the history. Thereafter, the effect control CPU 31a determines the suggestion image SG to be displayed on the image display unit GH based on the confirmation result. That is, if the icon a1 is displayed as a history, the fourth suggestion image SG4 is determined as an option, while if the icon b1 is displayed as a history, the fifth suggestion image SG5 is selected as an option. If the icon c1 is displayed as a history, the sixth suggestion image SG6 is determined as an option.

  Then, the effect control CPU 31a confirms the type of the special symbol designated by the special symbol stop symbol designation command at the start of the symbol variation game, and finally outputs one suggestion image SG corresponding to the designated special symbol. The suggestion image to be selected is determined. Specifically, if the icon corresponding to the determined jackpot type is displayed, the CPU 31a for effect control has the first suggestion image SG1, the second suggestion image SG2, and the determined jackpot. Any one of the suggestion images SG corresponding to is determined. On the other hand, when the icon corresponding to the determined jackpot is not displayed, the effect control CPU 31a determines the first suggestion image SG1 or the second suggestion image SG2. When the stop symbol designation command for special symbols is not input, the effect control CPU 31a determines the second suggestion image SG2 or the third suggestion image SG3 as the suggestion image SG to be finally selected.

  Then, the CPU 31a for effect control that has finally determined the suggestion image to be selected performs the effect in such a manner that the arrow Y pierces the determined suggestion image SG by the operation of the effect operation button BT after the start of the selection effect. After the execution, the selection effect is finished.

Hereinafter, a mode in which the selection effect is executed according to the control content described above will be described with reference to FIGS.
In FIG. 18, it is assumed that the current symbol variation game is a big hit corresponding to the special symbol C. Further, it is assumed that at the time when the current symbol variation game is executed, one icon a1, one icon b1, and one icon c1 are displayed as a history on the image display unit GH.

  When the selection effect is started, the image display unit GH displays the circle E composed of the first suggestion image SG1 to the sixth suggestion image SG6 and “darts in time” below the circle E. A message consisting of “Throw your finger” is displayed (FIG. 18A). Thereafter, in the image display unit GH, each suggestion image SG is rotated and displayed clockwise on the circle E at a speed that the player cannot visually recognize, and the operation of the effect operation button BT is performed on one suggestion image SG. An arrow Y is pierced in (FIG. 18B). Thereafter, in the image display unit GH, it is possible to visually recognize that the rotation of each suggestion image SG is stopped and the sixth suggestion image SG6 is selected (FIG. 18C). Thereby, the player can recognize that the jackpot corresponding to the special symbol C is won at a stage before the symbol variation game is finished.

  After that, in the image display unit GH, the big hit symbol combination (in this example, “555”) is derived, and is displayed in a fixed stop state after a predetermined time (FIG. 18D). Thereafter, in the image display unit GH, a big hit game composed of seven round games is started, and a probable change state is given after the big hit game ends. That is, as suggested by the selection effect during the execution of the symbol variation game, the 7R probability variation big hit game is given.

Therefore, according to this embodiment, in addition to the effects (1) to (6), the following effects can be obtained.
(20) Winning the jackpot lottery and increasing the number of types of jackpots will increase the number of options. Therefore, it is better to win multiple types of jackpots than to win one type of jackpot continuously. The notification content notified to the player increases, and the interest of the player can be improved. In addition, in order to increase the choices, it is possible to stir up a challenge to continue the game until a plurality of types of jackpots are won.

In addition, you may change each said embodiment as follows.
-In 9th Embodiment, you may make it change the display ratio of the suggestion image SG which occupies for the circle E according to the kind of special symbol. For example, since the fourth suggestion image SG4 corresponding to the special symbol A is a big hit with the highest advantage for the player, the display width may be set wider than the other suggestion images SG. The display width of each suggestion image SG may be determined each time based on the distribution set for each special symbol. Alternatively, the display width of the suggestion image SG to which the arrow Y is stuck may be changed by reflecting the lottery result of the big hit lottery in the current symbol variation game at the time of displaying the circle E. For example, when the jackpot corresponding to the special symbol A is determined, it is determined that the display width of the fourth suggestion image SG4 is wider than other suggestion images SG based on the determination of the jackpot. Etc. By doing in this way, even before the start of the roulette effect, the display width of the fourth suggestion image SG4 can make it appear as if the probability that the suggestion image is selected is high.

  In the seventh embodiment and the eighth embodiment, the prior determination is performed by comparing the acquired jackpot determination random number value with the low probability jackpot determination value. You may make it compare the value of the random number for determination, and the jackpot determination value for high probability. Further, the prior determination may be executed using a jackpot determination value corresponding to the gaming state at the time of execution of the preliminary determination process.

  -In 8th Embodiment, you may be made to perform prior determination also when a reach lottery is won. As a result, it is possible to create a situation in which the last symbol variation game with a continuous effect is out of reach and reach variation occurs.

  -In the eighth embodiment, whenever the number of executions of the continuous effect increases, the number of icons to be blinked increases, or whenever the number of times of execution of the continuous effect increases, the jackpot that is highly advantageous to the player It may be changed to a corresponding icon. For example, in the case where the last (3rd) symbol variation game in which the continuous performance ends is a big hit corresponding to the special symbol A, the icon b1 is blinked and displayed in the first continuous performance, and the icon c1 is displayed in the second continuous performance. May be displayed in a blinking manner, and the icon a1 may be displayed in a blinking manner in the third (final) continuous production. As a result, the notice effect using the history becomes more advantageous for the player as the number of executions of the continuous effect increases, so that the interest can be improved.

  -The notice mode in 8th Embodiment is good also as a hold change notice which changes the individual display area H1-H4 displayed on the hold image display area H to the icon corresponding to the type of jackpot. In this case, an icon corresponding to the determined big hit is displayed in the individual display area corresponding to the start holding ball that is a big hit.

  In step S53 (FIG. 13) in the sixth embodiment, the number of icons to be notified may be determined for each icon. In this case, the upper limit value for each icon may be a value obtained by subtracting 1 from the display number.

  -In the second embodiment, as in the third embodiment, a plurality of types of icons including icons corresponding to the types of jackpots that have been won may be displayed in a semi-transparent state during the symbol variation game. good.

  In the second embodiment, the type of icon displayed in a semi-transparent state and the type of icon as a history that is definitely displayed may be different. However, the icon that is definitely displayed as the history is an icon corresponding to the determined jackpot.

  -In 3rd Embodiment and 6th Embodiment, you may change the determination method of the icon used as notification object. For example, the presence / absence of an icon corresponding to the type of jackpot determined in step S43 and the presence / absence of other icons may be determined at the same time, and the icon to be notified may be determined according to the result.

  In the third embodiment, the number of other icons to be notified may be selected as a larger number than the number of icons corresponding to the determined jackpot to be notified.

  -You may combine 1st Embodiment-9th Embodiment how. For example, at least one of the seventh embodiment and the eighth embodiment, the notice effect may be executed in the manner shown in the first to sixth embodiments. In such a case, for example, in the seventh embodiment, if there is a start holding ball that is a big hit during the big hit game, the hold notice effect is executed, while the notice using the history during the symbol variation game is performed. The production will be executed. Further, in the eighth embodiment, when there are two or more start holding balls, the notice effect for the last symbol variation game that is the target of the continuous effect is executed, while one start holding ball is used. In the following cases, a notice effect for the symbol variation game being executed is executed. In addition, while performing the notice effect using the icons displayed as the history in the first, third, fourth, and sixth embodiments, the icons are translucent as in the second and fifth embodiments. You may employ | adopt the notice aspect displayed additionally in a state. In the ninth embodiment, when the notice effect in the first to sixth embodiments is executed, the stop destination of the roulette may be notified by the notice effect based on the history during the symbol variation game.

  -In each embodiment, you may set an icon for every prescribed | regulated round number which comprises jackpot game. For example, if you win the jackpot (16R) corresponding to the special symbol A, if you set “○” as the icon and win the jackpot (7R) corresponding to the special symbol B or special symbol C , “□” may be set as an icon. In this case, it is not possible to recognize whether or not a certain change state is given only by visually recognizing the icon, so when the notice effect using “□” is executed, It can be expected to be a big hit.

  -In each embodiment, the combination of a big jackpot symbol combination that is different depending on the type of jackpot is displayed in a fixed stop and the case where the same jackpot symbol combination is displayed in a fixed stop regardless of the type of jackpot You may do it. In such a case, if the CPU 31a for effect control determines the symbol combination that can identify the type of jackpot, the type of jackpot can be identified without executing the notice effect using the icon. You can decide no. Conversely, if the effect control CPU 31a determines a symbol combination that cannot identify the type of jackpot, it is only necessary to determine whether the notice effect using the icon can be executed.

  In each embodiment, when the number of displayed identical icons reaches a predetermined number (for example, two or more), one icon indicating that the predetermined number has been reached instead of the predetermined number of icons A cumulative icon may be displayed. Thereby, it is possible to easily grasp which jackpot is easy to win and the tendency of jackpot just by visually recognizing the accumulated icon. Further, when the specified number is reached, the specified number of individual icons displayed so far replaces one cumulative icon for recognizing that the specified number has been reached. can do. Thereby, the history can be visually recognized without reducing the visibility of the symbol variation game executed in the image display unit GH.

  -The notice mode using the icon in each embodiment may be any mode as long as it can be distinguished from the display mode of the icon displayed as the history. For example, in a state where the type of jackpot can be recognized from the icon, the blinking speed may be increased, or the icon color may be changed.

  In each embodiment, the number of icons corresponding to one jackpot type may be a plurality of types. For example, when the special symbol A is won, the icon b1 or the icon c1 may be determined as a notice target. Further, when the special symbol C is won, the icon b1 may be determined as the subject of the notice. However, it is preferable that the icon determined as the notice target is determined except for the icon corresponding to the jackpot that is more advantageous than the determined jackpot type. For example, if the jackpot corresponding to the special symbol B is won, when the notice effect is executed using the icon a1, it is expected that a 15R probability variable jackpot game will be given, but as a result, 7R This is because a non-probable big hit game will be awarded, and if a privilege disadvantageous to the contents of the notification is given, the player may be dissatisfied.

  -In each embodiment, if the icon corresponding to the determined jackpot is already displayed as a history, the notice effect using the history is always executed, but whether or not the notice effect can be executed is determined by lottery. You may make it do. As a result, even when the notice effect is not executed, it is possible to create a situation where the big hit lottery is won.

  -In each embodiment, even if the shortening state ends, the number of measurements for each type of jackpot is continuously stored internally, and if the big hit lottery is won after the end of the shortening state, it corresponds to this big hit In addition to the icon to be displayed, the history (icon) displayed in the previous variable state may be continuously displayed.

  -In each embodiment, you may set so that the winning probability of the reach lottery in the variable state may be lower than the winning probability of the reach lottery in the non-variable state. By making such a setting, it is possible to further enhance the interest of the player due to the execution of the notice effect using the history. That is, since the digestion efficiency of the symbol variation game is improved during the variable state, the player expects a big hit at an early stage. Therefore, if the winning probability of the reach lottery is set to be low, there is no feeling of the digestion efficiency of the symbol variation game in the variable state, and the history in which the big hit is fixed as in this embodiment is used. By executing the previous notice effect, it is possible to further emphasize the good digestion efficiency of the symbol variation game.

  -In each embodiment, you may make it display only the icon corresponding to the big hit (in the embodiment, special symbol A and C) which assigns a probability change state as a log | history. Thereby, in the notice effect using the history, since the degree of expectation for winning the probability variation big hit is notified, the player can be expected to be given the probability variation state.

In each embodiment, a notice effect using a history may be executed even in a situation where a variable state is not given.
-The execution timing of the notice effect using the history in each embodiment may be before the reach formation (for example, after the fluctuation stop of the left column and before the fluctuation stop of the right column).

-You may change the hit type in each embodiment.
In each embodiment, the effect control board 31 may be divided into an effect display control board that controls the effect display device 11 and a sub-general control board that controls the effect display control board.

  Each embodiment is embodied in a pachinko gaming machine that uses one special symbol, but may be embodied in a pachinko gaming machine that uses two special symbols composed of a first special symbol and a second special symbol.

  -In each embodiment, although it implemented in the pachinko gaming machine using a special design and a decoration design, you may materialize in the pachinko gaming machine using only a special design.
