Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a pinball game machine for amusing a player similarly to a case of a ready-to-win condition even in an alignment non-producing the ready-to-win condition and arousing no sense of expectation to the player.SOLUTION: A CPU variably displays respective sections of a main display portion 46 and respective boxes of a symbol display portion 54, and when receiving a command of a two-step display from a main control device, allows the main display portion 46 to stationarily display figures corresponding to the ready-to-win alignment and allows a left display box 48 and a middle display box 50 to stationarily display two same figures (e.g., 7 and 7). Subsequently, the CPU redisplays variably the display section displaying one symbol which does not complete the ready-to-win alignment, and then stationarily displays it to produce a winning display or a failure display, which is commanded from the main control device. When only any two figures of the left, middle or right are accorded, the game machine can thus produce the ready-to-win condition similarly to the conventional one.

Description

  The present invention relates to a ball game machine.

  Conventionally, in a ball game machine such as a pachinko machine or an arrangement ball type pachinko machine, for example, a judgment means for judging a hit when the judgment execution condition is satisfied, and a set number of three or more if the judgment result by the judgment means is a hit. The winning symbol arrangement determined by the symbol determining symbol arrangement determined by the arrangement determining means for determining the falling symbol arrangement formed by the set number of symbols if the hitting symbol arrangement formed by the symbols of 2. Description of the Related Art There is known a ball game machine that includes a symbol display means for displaying an array and changes a gaming state when a determination result is a hit.

  In the display of symbols in such a ball game machine, for example, symbols, numbers, alphabets, pictures, etc. are changed one after another, the change is stopped at a predetermined timing, and an arrangement of symbols corresponding to hit or miss is displayed. However, if three identical symbols are displayed in one row, a format that is a win display is the mainstream.

  For example, when 3 symbols are stopped and displayed, the 3 symbols are not stopped and displayed at the same time. For example, the 3 symbols are stopped and displayed in the order of the left symbol, the middle symbol, and the right symbol when viewed from the player. Usually, three symbols are stopped and displayed. In this case, if the left symbol that is stopped and displayed first is aligned with the middle symbol, the so-called reach state is established in which the hit pattern is determined depending on the last right symbol, and the last symbol is stopped and displayed from this reach state. Operations such as extending the time to do were performed. (Patent Document 1).

JP 7-185089 A

For example, if the winning symbol arrangement and the off symbol arrangement are composed of three symbols, and the three symbols in the winning symbol arrangement are the same (for example, 7 · 7 · 7), 7 · 7 · 5, 7・ A sequence where two symbols are the same but one symbol is different, such as 5, 7, 5, 7 and 7, is a reach sequence.
Such a reach arrangement (for example, 7, 5, 7) is temporarily stopped and displayed, and then one of the symbols (for example, 5) is displayed in a variable manner. The symbol indicating the detachment is stopped and displayed.

  However, if all the symbols are changed after being completely stopped in the temporary display of the reach arrangement, there is a possibility that the regulations are not met.

As a means for solving the above-mentioned problems, the configuration described in claim 1 can be adopted. This ball game machine has a judging means for judging hit / miss when a judgment execution condition is satisfied,
If the determination result by the determination means is a winning, a winning symbol arrangement composed of three symbols is determined, and if the determination result is unsuccessful, an deciding symbol arrangement consisting of three symbols is determined. Means,
A main display unit on which a dummy symbol related to the winning symbol arrangement or the off symbol arrangement is displayed;
A main symbol display section on which a normal symbol related to a normal hit / miss display is displayed;
One of the dummy symbols constituting the reach arrangement, after tentatively stopping and displaying the reach arrangement when two of the dummy symbols are the same and one of the symbols is a different reach arrangement, Two-stage display means for performing two-stage display for variably displaying two or all again and confirming and displaying the symbol arrangement corresponding to the determination result;
In a ball game machine that changes the gaming state that the determination result is a win,
The display area of the main symbol display part is smaller than the display area of the main display part,
If there is an instruction for symbol display, start the variable display of the dummy symbol and the regular symbol displayed on the main display unit and the main symbol display unit,
If there is an instruction for the two-stage display, the two-stage display is executed only on the main display unit, and the regular symbol continues to be displayed in a variable manner.
The dummy symbol of the symbol arrangement corresponding to the determination result is fixedly displayed on the main display unit, and the regular symbol whose hit / match matches the dummy symbol that is fixedly displayed on the main symbol display unit is displayed. And
With a specific symbol displayed on the main display unit,
The two-stage display means is configured such that when the specific symbol is displayed when the provisional stop display is performed, two symbols of the dummy symbols are the same and one symbol does not have a different symbol arrangement. Even if it exists, the two-stage display is executed.

Here, the variable display is not a display that blinks 5 in the reach arrangement (7, 5, 7), for example, but displays a plurality of types of dummy symbols one after another at the display position where 5 was displayed. This means that the dummy symbol displayed at the display position is changed. Therefore, strictly speaking, it can be said that the two-stage display means displays the dummy symbols in a variable manner at any display position.
In addition, the variable display of any one of the dummy symbols (any display position) is not limited to one display position. Therefore, for example, in the above example, two positions of 7, 5, 7 may be displayed in a variable manner, or all display positions may be displayed in a variable manner. The present invention includes a case where one, two, or all are displayed in a variable manner. Further, in the temporary display of the reach arrangement, the dummy symbol that is subject to variable display may be finely moved (not completely stopped).

  In addition, the two-stage display means of the present invention displays a two-stage display when two of the dummy symbols are the same and one symbol is different, or when a specific symbol is displayed. Execute.

  The bullet ball game machine according to claim 2 is the bullet ball game machine according to claim 1, further comprising a liquid crystal display board, wherein the main display part and the main symbol display part are formed on a display surface of the liquid crystal display board. It is characterized by.

After the reach arrangement is temporarily stopped and displayed, the symbols constituting the reach arrangement are re-variably displayed, and the two-stage display (also referred to as trick display) for confirming and displaying the symbol arrangement corresponding to the determination result is displayed on the main display section. By performing it on the displayed dummy symbol, it can be displayed without being regulated by laws and regulations.
In addition, since it is impossible for the player to predict whether a win will be displayed or a miss will be displayed following the display of the reach arrangement, the player can be expected to win until the display is confirmed. Furthermore, depending on the conditions, there may be a case where the variable display is displayed again after the reach array is displayed, and there is a case where the variable display is restarted from the reach array.

In the ball game machine having the above-described configuration, for example, the winning symbol arrangement and the off symbol arrangement are constituted by three dummy symbols, and the three dummy symbols are the same (for example, 7, 7, 7) in the winning symbol arrangement. In such a case, an array in which two symbols are the same and one symbol is different, such as 7, 7, 5, 7, 5, 7, 5, 7, 7, is a reach array.
The two-stage display means (also referred to as trick display means) tentatively stops and displays such reach arrangement (for example, 7, 5, 7). Thereafter, any one of the dummy symbols (for example, 5) is variably displayed again, and then the symbol array corresponding to the determination result by the determining unit, that is, the symbol array indicating a hit / miss display is stopped.

  The two-stage display means stops and displays the symbol corresponding to the determination result by the determination means after the temporary display of the reach arrangement and the subsequent fluctuation display. As a result, the player can be notified of hit or miss.

  In the temporary display of the reach arrangement, if all symbols are changed after being completely stopped, there is a risk that they will not comply with the law. However, as a countermeasure, the symbol for the next variable display is slightly moved (do not stop completely). ) Etc. are also effective. In addition, the symbols subject to regulations can be displayed on the symbol display means, and the reach arrangement and the subsequent display by the two-stage display means can be dummy symbols that are not subject to regulations.

  Further, the symbol display means may also serve as the two-stage display means. After the temporary display of the reach arrangement, the two-stage display means displays the detachment cause pattern that causes the detachment in a variable manner, and then stops and displays the symbol according to the determination result by the determination means.

  If a specific example is given, the symbol which is different from others among the reach arrangements of 7, 7, 5, 7, 5, 7, 5, 7, 7, etc., in this example, 5 corresponds to the cause symbol. Since the cause symbol (5) is variably displayed and then stopped and hit or miss is displayed, it is similar to the process from the conventional reach display to the confirmed display, and various reach actions can be incorporated.

  Furthermore, if the variable display is always performed again from the reach arrangement, the degree of sensitivity may not be high when the variable display is resumed. Therefore, if the two-stage display means is configured such that, depending on conditions, the display is not performed after the reach array is displayed (that is, the reach display is the final display and the deviation is displayed), the variable display is not resumed from the reach array. Therefore, it is possible to increase the sensitivity when the variable display is resumed from the reach arrangement.

  Examples of the condition for not displaying the variation after the reach arrangement include a case where the count value of the counter is a specific value (for example, an even number), and a case where a specific flag that changes with the progress of the game is set. However, in short, it is only necessary to set a condition that makes it not unilateral whether or not to display the variation after reach arrangement. It is not necessary to set the ratio of whether or not to display this variation to about 1: 1.

  Next, the embodiments of the present invention will be described more specifically with reference to specific examples of the present invention.

  As shown in FIG. 1, a front frame 14 having a rectangular window 12 is arranged on the upper part of a pachinko machine 10 as a bullet ball game machine of this specific example, and a game board 16 is installed inside the window 12. Yes. A glass 18 is held in the window 12, and the gaming area 20 is formed between the gaming board 16 and the glass 18 by the glass 18 covering the entire surface of the gaming board 16.

  A liquid crystal display board 24 which is a part of the symbol display device 22 is assembled at the center of the game board 16. A start winning opening 26 is provided below the liquid crystal display panel 24, and a large winning opening 28 called an attacker and an out hole 30 are installed below the start winning opening 26. In addition to this, the game board 16 is provided with a windmill, a well-known ordinary prize opening, and the like (not shown).

  On the front side of the pachinko machine 10, an upper plate 31, a lower plate 32, a launching handle 34 for operating a launching device (not shown), and the like are mounted below the game board 16. Next, the electrical configuration of the pachinko machine 10 will be described. As shown in FIG. 2, the main controller 60 is configured with a CPU 74 having a ROM 70, a RAM 72, and the like as a center. An input circuit 82, an output circuit 84, and an input / output circuit 86 are connected to the CPU 74.

  The input circuit 82 receives a start signal from a winning switch 88 installed in the start winning opening 26. Although not shown in the drawings, various signals and the like are input from sensors and switches installed in each part of the pachinko machine 10.

  A solenoid 92 for opening and closing the special winning opening 28 is connected to the output circuit 84, and the CPU 74 can control the operation of the solenoid 92. Although not shown, the output circuit 84 is connected to other solenoids, lamps installed in the game board 16 or the machine frame, etc., and the CPU 74 operates the solenoids. Control the blinking of lamps.

  An input / output circuit 96 of the symbol control circuit 94 is connected to the input / output circuit 86. In the symbol control circuit 94, the input / output circuit 96 is connected to the CPU 98. The CPU 98 includes a ROM 100, a RAM 102, and the like, and can send and receive data to and from the CPU 74 through input / output circuits 96 and 86. The CPU 98 is connected to the drive circuit 104 of the liquid crystal display panel 24.

  The ROM 100 stores an operation program of the CPU 98, symbol data of a plurality of types of symbols used for the display of winning / rejection, and the like. The CPU 98 operates according to the operation program, and can send symbol data to the drive circuit 104 to display various symbols on the liquid crystal display panel 24.

  When the pachinko machine 10 is activated, as shown in FIG. 3, the display surface of the liquid crystal display panel 24 has a main display unit 46 including a left display section 40, a middle display section 42, and a right display section 44. Formed below the right display section 44, a main symbol display portion 54 including a left display rod 48, a middle display rod 50, and a right display rod 52 is formed.

  Next, the operation of the symbol display device 14 in the pachinko machine 10 will be described. While the pachinko machine 10 is in operation, the CPU 74 of the main controller 60 repeatedly executes the determination routine shown in FIG. 4 and the special game routine shown in FIG. 5 at every predetermined timing.

  As shown in FIG. 4, in the determination routine, the CPU 74 determines whether or not a start signal is input from the winning switch 88 of the start winning opening 26 (step 410; hereinafter, steps are simply referred to as S). If the start signal is not input here, the CPU 74 ends the process of this determination routine.

  If a start signal has been input, the CPU 74 determines a hit / fail depending on whether or not the count value of a counter for determination (not shown) matches a preset hit value (S420). If it is a hit here, a hit arrangement (for example, 7, 7, 7) consisting of three identical numbers is determined (S430), and the process proceeds to S460. Further, if it is out of place, an outlier array (for example, 5, 6, 7) in which the three numbers are not identical is determined (S440), and it is a reach outlier array (for example, 7 in which two of the three numbers are aligned). (7, 5, 7, 5, 7, 5, 7, 7, etc.) (S450: YES), the process proceeds to S460, and if the reach is not out of alignment (S450: NO), the process proceeds to S480.

  In S460, the CPU 74 determines whether or not to perform the two-stage display based on whether the count value of the display form counter (not shown) is an odd number or an even number. If it is a two-stage display, the CPU 74 determines a reach arrangement to be displayed prior to the display of the hit arrangement or the out-of-reach arrangement (S470). This reach sequence is determined by substituting any one of the numbers for the hit sequence determined in S430 with another number, and for the out-of-reach sequence determined as an out-of-sequence in S440. Is determined by replacing one non-uniform number (for example, 5 such as 7 · 7 · 5, 7 · 5 · 7, 5 · 7 · 7, etc.) with another number. However, in the case of an out-of-reach arrangement, substitution that becomes a hit arrangement (for example, substituting 7 in 7, 7, 5 to 7) is prohibited.

  Next, the CPU 74 instructs the symbol display device 22 to display a winning arrangement or a missing arrangement (S480). At this time, if there is the reach arrangement determined in S470, the CPU 74 instructs the symbol display device 22 to display the reach arrangement prior to the display of the hit arrangement or the off arrangement. The processing of the determination routine by the CPU 74 is as described above.

  In addition to this determination routine, the CPU 74 also executes a special game routine process shown in FIG. In the special game routine, the CPU 74 first determines whether or not the winning determination is made in the above-described determination routine (S510). If it is not a win, the processing of this routine is ended. If it is determined that the win is determined, the solenoid 92 is driven to wait for the winning display by the symbol display device 22 to be described below to be confirmed, and the special winning opening 28 is reached. The process related to the special game such as releasing the game is executed (S520).

  The CPU 74 of the main control device 60 performs processing such as these determination routines and special game routines, but the CPU 98 of the symbol display device 22 repeats the processing of the symbol display routine shown in FIG. 6 at every predetermined timing. Running. As shown in FIG. 6, the CPU 98 first determines whether or not there is a symbol display instruction from the main control device 60 (S610). If there is no such instruction, the CPU 98 ends the symbol display routine processing. If there is an instruction, the CPU 98 reads the symbol data from the ROM 100 and sends it to the drive circuit 104, and each section (left display section 40, middle display section 42, right display section 44) of the main display unit 46 of the liquid crystal display panel 24. ) And a plurality of symbols are displayed (variable display) one after another on each symbol (left display rod 48, middle display rod 50, right display rod 52) of the present symbol display section 54 (see S620, FIG. 3A).

  Next, the CPU 98 determines whether or not a two-level display instruction is given from the main control device 60 (S630). If there is a two-level display instruction, the CPU 98 controls the display on the liquid crystal display panel 24 via the drive circuit 104 to stop and display the left display section 40, the middle display section 42, and the right display section 44 in this order. Numbers corresponding to the array (for example, 6 · 7 · 7) are displayed, and two identical numbers (eg, 7 · 7) are stopped and displayed on the left display rod 48 and the middle display rod 50 (S640, FIG. 3 ( b)).

  Subsequently, the CPU 98 displays a display section in which one symbol that is not aligned in the reach arrangement is displayed after a short time (for example, about 0.5 seconds), which is sufficient for the player to confirm the stop display. In the example of 3, the left display section 40) in which 6 is displayed is variably displayed again (S 650, see FIG. 3C).

  Then, in S660, the CPU 98 determines the last display section (FIG. 3) so that the hit arrangement (for example, 7, 7, 7) or the non-reach arrangement (for example, 5, 7, 7) instructed from the main controller 60 is obtained. In this example, the display of the main display unit 46 is fixed by stopping the left display section 40) from the variable display. At the same time as the confirmation display on the main display unit 46, all the display bars 48 to 52 on the symbol display unit 54 are also stopped and displayed.

  On the other hand, if the CPU 98 determines in S630 that a two-stage display instruction has not been given (S630: NO), following the variable display in S620, the left display section 40 and the middle display section 42 of the main display section 46 are displayed. The right display section 44 is stopped and displayed in order, and the left display 升 48, the middle display 升 50, and the right display 升 52 of the symbol display unit 54 are stopped and displayed in order, and the hit arrangement (indicated by the main controller 60) For example, 7 · 7 · 7) or out-of-sequence (for example, 577) is fixedly displayed, and at the same time as the fixed display of the main control unit 46, all the display symbols 48 to 52 of the symbol display unit 54 are stopped and displayed. It is displayed (S600).

  In the pachinko machine 10, the symbols defined by the game rules are displayed on the main symbol display portion 54, and the display on the main display portion 46 is a dummy. Therefore, the display on the symbol display unit 54 is a normal hit / miss display. However, the player does not consider the difference in the game rules between the regular symbol and the dummy symbol. Therefore, it is necessary to match the display result of the main symbol display unit 54 determined in S660 with the display result of the main display unit 46, and this specific example does so. Note that it is only necessary to match the display results (whether they are hit or miss), and it is not necessary to match even the arrangement.

  As described above, in the case of the two-stage display, the symbol at one place is changed again following the display of the reach arrangement, and the display is determined by the stop display. Since the reach action is resumed following the display that seems to be off, the display format that is stopped in the order of left symbol, middle symbol, right symbol, for example, could not give the player a sense of expectation. Even with an arrangement such as 7, 7, 7, 7, etc., it is possible to entertain the player in the same manner as 7, 7, 5.

Moreover, since it is impossible for the player to predict whether or not a win will be displayed following the display of the reach arrangement, the player can be expected to win until the display is confirmed. Furthermore, depending on the conditions, there may be a case where the variable display is displayed again after the reach array is displayed, and there is a case where the variable display is restarted from the reach array.
(Modification) Next, an example in which an almighty symbol (AM) is included will be described.

  When an almighty symbol (AM) is used, for example, 7 · AM · 7 or AM · 7 · 7 is a winning arrangement, and arrangements such as 7 · AM · 5 or AM · 7 · 5 are out of alignment. It is. However, in the case of 7 · AM · 5 or AM · 7 · 5, if either one of 7 or 5 is replaced with the same number as the other, it will be a hit arrangement, so that almighty (AM) is not included. All sequences are also reach sequences.

  Therefore, in the determination routine shown in FIG. 4, the CPU 74 of the main control device 60 determines that the outlier array determined in S440 is an array including almighty (AM) such as 6 · AM · 7. Since the reach is out of reach (S450: YES), the process proceeds to S460. Of course, even if the almighty (AM) is not included, the process proceeds to S460 if the reach is out of reach (S450: NO), and proceeds to S480.

  Then, in S460, the CPU 74 determines whether or not to perform the two-stage display. If the two-stage display is selected, the CPU 74 determines a reach arrangement for display prior to the display of the hit arrangement or the out-of-reach arrangement (S470). . For example, if the out-of-reach sequence is 5 · AM · 7, the replacement target is 6 or 7, and the almighty (AM) is not the replacement target. In addition, if a specific symbol, for example, 7 is hit (7 · 7 · 7 or 7 · AM · 7) until the next predetermined number of hits, the determination probability is increased (high probability). The player can further increase the player's sense of expectation by leaving the specific symbol (for example, 7) and using the non-specific symbol (for example, 6) as the replacement target.

  Next, the CPU 74 instructs the symbol display device 22 to display a winning arrangement or a missing arrangement (S480). At this time, if there is the reach arrangement determined in S470, the CPU 74 instructs the symbol display device 22 to display the reach arrangement prior to the display of the hit arrangement or the off arrangement.

  On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 6, the CPU 98 of the symbol display device 22 receives each symbol display instruction from the main control device 60 (S610: YES), each section (left) of the main display unit 46 of the liquid crystal display panel 24. A plurality of symbols are displayed one after another (variable display) on each ridge (left display 、 48, middle display 升 50, right display 升 52) of the display section 40, middle display section 42, right display section 44) and main symbol display section 54. (S620, see FIG. 7A).

  Next, if an instruction for two-stage display is given from the main controller 60 (S630: YES), the CPU 98 stops and displays the left display section 40, the middle display section 42, and the right display section 44 in this order, and the reach arrangement is performed. The corresponding character string (for example, 6 · AM · 7) is displayed, and two identical numbers (for example, 7 · 7) are stopped and displayed on the left display box 48 and the middle display box 50 (S640, FIG. 7B). )reference).

  Subsequently, the CPU 98 displays a display in which a symbol other than almighty (AM) is displayed in the reach array after a short time (for example, about 0.5 seconds) which is sufficient for the player to confirm the stop display. One of the sections (the left display section 40 in which 6 is displayed in the example of FIG. 7 or the right display section 44 in which 7 is displayed) is again displayed in a variable manner (see S650, FIG. 7C). The display section 40 is changed again).

  Then, in S660, the CPU 98 makes the last display section (FIG. 7) so that the hit arrangement (for example, 7 · AM · 7) or the out-of-reach arrangement (for example, 5 · AM · 7) instructed from the main controller 60 is obtained. In this example, the display of the main display unit 46 is fixed by stopping the left display section 40) from the variable display. At the same time as the confirmation display on the main display unit 46, all the display bars 48 to 52 on the symbol display unit 54 are also stopped and displayed.

  As mentioned above, although embodiment of this invention was described according to the specific example and the modification, this invention is not limited to such a specific example, It can implement variously in the range which does not deviate from the summary of this invention. Needless to say. For example, in the specific example, the hit arrangement and the outlier arrangement are composed of three numbers, but in addition to numbers, letters such as alphabets and kanji, figures, and the like can be used. The number of characters and figures constituting the array is not limited to three (three digits), and may be four (four digits) or more.

  In the specific example, the CPU of the main control device functions as the determination unit and the arrangement determination unit. However, the CPU of the symbol display device may function as the arrangement determination unit.
