Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a Pachinko game machine capable of increasing a substantial time-shortening continuation rate even if a time-shortening continuation rate on a blade accessory side is low in a combined machine of a digital Pachinko and a blade accessory.SOLUTION: A holding device 9 is provided near a position where a game ball flows into a blade variable winning device 8. A tray 91 for holding the game ball of the holding device 9 is rotatable to a receiving position for receiving and holding the game ball, and a discharge position for discharging the held game ball. When a game ball enters the blade variable winning device 8, it is determined whether or not there is time-shortening in the case that a jackpot game state is generated thereafter. When the holding device is operated, an entry rate of the game ball to the blade variable winning device 8 is changed. When there is not time shortening, by lowering the entry rate to the blade variable winning device 8, a non-time shortening state is suppressed, and it is made easy to continue the time shortening.

Description

  The present invention relates to a gaming machine that is installed and used in a game hall such as a pachinko parlor.

As a general pachinko game machine, what is called a digipachi is known.
In this pachinko gaming machine, a start winning opening is provided in a game area formed on a game board surface into which a game ball is driven and flows down, and an internal main board is formed based on the winning of the game ball in the start winning opening. In the control device on the side, the lottery of winning or losing the variable display game displayed on the variable display device is performed, and when the variable display game determined by the lottery is displayed, the attacker provided in the game area is released As a result, it becomes a big hit gaming state in which a game ball can be awarded to the attacker. In the jackpot game state, the player can basically acquire a large number of game balls.

  Moreover, what is called a so-called honey thing is known as a common pachinko game machine. In this pachinko gaming machine, a start winning opening is provided in a game area formed on a game board surface into which a game ball is driven and flows down, and a wing that opens and closes based on the winning of the game ball in the start winning opening is provided. In the specific winning device provided, the wings that prevent the winning of the game ball when it is closed are opened so that the game ball can easily win. At this time, when the game ball that has won the specific winning device passes through the V winning area (specific region) provided in the specific winning device, it becomes a big hit, and the operation in which the wings are repeatedly opened multiple times is a big hit that is repeated several times. A gaming state occurs. In this case, the player can acquire a large number of game balls by repeatedly releasing the wings to facilitate winning of the game balls many times.

  In addition, a pachinko game machine that combines such a digital pachi and a honey is also known. In this pachinko gaming machine, a digital winning start winning opening for starting a variable display game, a honey start winning opening for opening a specific winning device, a variable display device for displaying a variable display game, and a variable display game And an attacker that opens when a big hit occurs. In this pachinko gaming machine, when the wing of the specific winning device is opened and the game ball wins and passes the above-mentioned specific area, the winger does not repeat opening, but the attacker repeats opening. The player can acquire a large number of game balls by opening the attacker regardless of whether it is a hit on the digipachi side or a hit on the honey side.

Such pachinko gaming machines are being developed so that a new game can be created by combining these with a combination of a digital pachi and a honey.
For example, in the digital patch, in general, in addition to the above-described variable display game, that is, a special symbol (special symbol) variable display game (special symbol game), a normal symbol (general symbol) variable display game (general symbol game) Is done. For example, based on the fact that a game ball has passed through a through-chucker (start gate) provided on the game board, a lottery game that wins or loses the usual variable display game is performed. When displayed on the general-purpose display, the electric tulip (electric chew) provided at the start winning opening opens.

  Also, with the pachinko machines described above, the game time of the ordinary game is shortened, the number of ordinary games is increased per unit time, the probability of hitting the ordinary game is increased, and the ordinary game is won. In such a case, an electric chew support (electric support) state occurs in which the electric chew opening time is increased (including increasing the number of times of opening). The electric support state occurs, for example, in a probability change state or a time-short state. In the electric support state, game balls are frequently won at the start winning opening, so that the number of special game is increased, and the decrease of game balls is suppressed by winning balls at the starting winning opening. If this happens, there is a high possibility that the number of game balls will increase greatly.

  In this way, the electric chew that will be released in the usual game is not provided for the start prize opening for honeybees, but for the starters for honey, and it is easy for game balls to win when the left-hand start opening for digipachi is left. In addition, a pachinko gaming machine is known in which a game ball is easy to win by right-handing the start winning opening for a honey, a specific winning device, and the above-described electric chew. Left-handed hitting in this case is a hitting method in which the game ball flows down mainly on the left side of the game area by weakening the firing force of the game ball that is launched from the left side to the right side at the upper part of the game area. On the other hand, right-handed hitting is a hitting method in which the game ball flows down mainly on the right side of the game area by strengthening the firing force.

  In this pachinko machine, a special time game is provided with a short time and a short time, and when a game ball wins a start-up entrance for a honey, equipped with an electric chew, it is won and lost by lottery. It shall be determined, and per unit with a short time and per unit without a short time. Note that the lottery in this case is won with a very high probability, and the wings of the specific winning device are released, and mainly determines whether there is a short time or short time.

  In the case of a short time with a digipachi, the state after the big hit state generated when the special figure game is won and the attacker opens is the short time state, that is, the above-mentioned electric support state. In this case, if the player hits the right, the game ball is frequently won at the start prize opening for the honey with the electric chew, the wings of the specific prize-winning device are frequently opened, and the game ball frequently wins the specific prize-winning device. It becomes possible. Thereby, the possibility that the game ball won in the specific winning device passes through the specific area is increased.

Therefore, by hitting to the right, it is possible to generate a jackpot gaming state in which a jackpot is generated on the side of the honey and the attacker is released.
In addition, if there is a shortage in the lottery at the start-up winning opening on the side of the honeymoon, the winning game ball will pass through a specific area and open the attacker when the specific winning device is released due to the shortage. When a situation occurs, it becomes a short-time state after this jackpot state.

  Note that the short-time state ends with, for example, 100 special drawing games, or 100 lotteries by winning a prize opening for the above-mentioned electric chew honey, or the total of these times ends with 100 times. To do. In the short-time state, the player basically hits the right, so that no special-figure game is basically started except for the special-figure game that is put on hold after the jackpot state ends. In addition, when the player is not in the short-time state (electric support state), even if the player hits the right side, for example, the game ball cannot be won in the closed electric chew, or the game ball is in a state that is extremely difficult to win. Since it is difficult to open the wings of the player, the player makes a left strike aiming at the start winning opening for the digital patch.

In such a pachinko gaming machine, when a game is started in a non-time-saving state that is not shortened, first, the game ball is left-handed with the aim of a digital pachi start winning opening on the left side of the game area.
In this case, a game ball is won at the start-up winning opening for digipachi, and special figure games are sequentially performed. In this special figure game, if there is a shortage, the time after the jackpot gaming state will be short.

  In the short-time state, hitting the right as described above to let the through-chucker pass the game ball, and letting a regular game that hits with high probability during the short-time, the electric Chu is frequently released, for the honey Game balls frequently win at the start winning opening, and the specific winning device is frequently opened. As a result, it becomes easier for a game ball to win a specific winning device, so that the chance for the winning game ball to pass through the specific area increases, and a big hit is generated in a relatively short period of time.

  In this case, if it is a lottery performed by winning at the start winning opening for the monochu ’s honey, if the time is short, the player again hits the right and in a relatively short period of time as described above. A jackpot occurs.

Therefore, when the time-short hits are in a continuous state, it is possible for the player to continuously generate the big hits at short intervals just by hitting the right.
However, in the lottery that is performed by winning the start-up winning hole for electric chew, if a short win / short win occurs, the big win state will be in a no short / short state (non-short / short state) as described above. Even if you hit the right, there is almost no jackpot. Therefore, the player again tries to generate a short-time win in the special-purpose game, aiming at the start winning opening for the digital patch by left-handed.

  In such a gaming machine, if the lottery is performed by winning a winning prize opening for the electric monkey's honey, if the setting is such that the short-time win will occur with a probability much higher than 50% of the total win, In this case, it is possible to increase the interest of the player by generating such a state in place of the probability change state of the digital patch. In addition, if the passing rate of the specific area in the specific winning device is increased, there is a possibility that the jackpot will continue to occur in a relatively short time, and the interval of the jackpot that is continuously generated compared with the probability variation state is shortened. It is also possible to increase the interest of the player.

Here, with such a pachinko gaming machine, as a method of giving a new gameability, the game balls flowing down the game area are supplemented and held, and the held game balls are made to flow down toward the winning opening. Therefore, it is conceivable to use a holding device for winning a game ball at a winning opening with a high probability.
Although it is not a pachinko gaming machine as described above, pachinko gaming machines having a holding device have already been proposed (see, for example, Patent Documents 1 and 2).

JP-A-9-155015 Japanese Patent No. 3527271

By the way, in the pachinko gaming machine that combines the digital pachi and the honey as described above, the player's interest is inevitably toward the number of consecutive times, and the player who has a short time on the honey side has a high probability of generating a jackpot. Will be liked by. However, there is a problem in increasing the probability of jackpot with a short time on the side of the honey, considering the game characteristics and profits of the amusement store.
Therefore, it is desired to develop a pachinko gaming machine that can enhance the interest of the player by using the above-described holding device even if the probability of occurrence of the jackpot is low and the probability of jackpot is low.

  The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and is a combination of a digital patch and a splinter, and even if the probability of occurrence of a short and large jackpot on the splinter side (short time continuation rate) is low, a substantial short time continuation rate is achieved. It is an object of the present invention to provide a pachinko gaming machine that can be enhanced and that can enhance the interest of the player even if the substantial time saving continuation rate is not so high.

And a first winning device that is set so that a game ball that has won any one of the special area and the general area passes,
A second winning device that is provided in the second starting device and varies between an open state in which a game ball is likely to win the second starting device and a closed state in which the game ball is difficult to win or cannot be won;
A third winning device that is provided on the gaming board and varies between an open state in which a game ball is easy to win and a closed state in which a game ball cannot win;
First game control means for controlling a first game in which a first win, a second win, or a loss is determined by lottery based on the winning of a game ball in the first starting device;
Second game control means for controlling a second game in which at least the third winning or the fourth winning is determined by a lottery based on winning of the game ball in the second starting device;
A third game control means for controlling a third game in which at least the fifth hit or the outage is determined by lottery based on the game ball flowing into the third starting device;
Display means for displaying the lottery results of the first game, the second game, and the third game;
First winning device control means for opening the first winning device when the second game reaches the third winning or the fourth winning;
A second winning device control means for opening the second winning device when the third game is the fifth winning;
The third winning device opens and closes a plurality of times when the first game becomes the first winning or the second winning and when a game ball won in the first winning device passes the specific area. Third winning device control means for generating a winning state;
When the winning state generated by the first winning in the first game ends, the first winning device is released and the third winning device is released in the second game, and the first winning device When the winning state generated when the game ball wins and passes through the specific area is finished, the probability that the third game will be the fifth win within a unit time is low, and the second winning device is opened. Normal state with few opportunities to become
In addition, when the winning state generated by the second winning in the first game ends, the first winning device is released and the first winning device is released as the fourth winning in the second game. When the winning state that occurs when a game ball wins a winning device and passes through the specific area ends, the probability that the third game will be fifth in a unit time is higher than the normal state, In a gaming machine, comprising: a third game state control means for making the second winning device an advantageous state in which the opportunity to be in the open state is greater than the normal state.
Provided in the vicinity of the position where the game ball of the first winning device of the game board wins, and when the game ball flowing down the game area flows in, the inflow game ball is held up to a predetermined number of 1 or more And a holding device capable of releasing the held game ball toward a predetermined winning opening arranged at a position away from the first winning device;
It is characterized by comprising operating means for releasing a game ball held from the holding device toward a predetermined winning opening by the player's operation.

  In the gaming machine according to claim 1, the above-mentioned conventional digipachi structure and the structure of the honey are combined, and the bonanza side is continuously repeated several times in a short time due to the continuous advantageous state (electric support state). In a pachinko gaming machine that is easily generated, it is possible to suppress the end of the electric support state by the player's operation.

  When the second game is the fourth win, when the game ball wins the first winning device released by the occurrence of the fourth win and passes through the specific area, a hit state occurs. Further, when the second game is the third win, when the game ball wins the first winning device released by the third hit and passes through the specific area, and the hit state occurs, the normal state is thereafter set. The power support state does not continue.

  Therefore, when a game ball wins the second starting device having the second winning device and a third win occurs, the electronic support is prevented by preventing the game ball from winning the first winning device that is open. It is possible to prevent the state from being terminated without continuing.

  However, after the game ball wins the second starting device and the second game is the third hit, and the display means that the third hit is displayed, even if the release of the game ball is stopped, It is not possible to prevent the game ball that has been launched from reaching the first winning device that has been released. If the game ball is likely to win the second starting device and the game ball is stopped, the game ball is also stopped in the case of the fourth hit, and the game ball is placed in the opened first winning device. Since no winning is made and the game ball does not pass through the specific area, the big hit state cannot be generated.

  In the present invention, a holding device for holding the game ball that has flowed in the vicinity of the position where the game ball of the first winning device wins can be provided. For example, the game ball held in the holding device is predetermined by the operating means. If the game ball held toward the winning opening of the game is released, the game ball can be held again, and the game ball that has already been launched and goes to the first winning device is supplemented. May prevent winning. In addition, when the game ball comes into contact with the holding device or the held game ball in a state where the game ball is held on the holding device and a state where the game ball is not held, a game to the first winning device that is released There is a possibility that the winning rate of the ball can be changed. In addition, when the holding device holds the game ball and releases the game ball, when the game ball comes into contact with the holding device, the winning rate of the game ball to the opened first winning device is changed. There is a possibility.

  That is, when the operating means operates the holding device arranged in the vicinity where the game ball of the first winning device wins, the winning rate of the game ball to the first winning device can be changed. When one winning device is opened, the status of the holding device is set to a state where the winning rate to the first winning device is lowered, and when the first winning device is opened at the fourth, the winning device is awarded to the first winning device. By setting the rate to be increased, it is possible to increase the number of times the electric support state is continued.

  Thereby, for example, even if the lottery probability that becomes the third per unit when the power support state ends is higher than the lottery probability that per fourth that the power support state continues, and the continuation rate of the power support state decreases, The continuation rate of the electric support state can be increased by the player's operation. In other words, even if the continuation rate of the electric support state is set low, the substantial continuation rate can be increased by the player's operation, and the player's dissatisfaction with the low continuation rate of the electric support state can be eliminated. .

  Further, even if the continuation rate of the substantial electric support state including the player's operation is not so high, an operation to increase the continuation rate of the electric support state, that is, the first winning device in the case of the third win The operation to block the winning of the game ball becomes part of the game for the player, and the interest rate that the blocking of the winning of the game ball succeeds or fails, so the substantial continuation rate of the electric support state is Satisfaction with such a game, even if it is not so high, can prevent dissatisfaction that the continuation rate is not high.

  According to a second aspect of the present invention, the gaming machine according to the first aspect of the present invention is such that the game ball that has flowed down toward the holding device holding the predetermined number of game balls is not held by the holding device, The holding device is provided such that the holding device is provided so as to be brought into contact with a game ball held by the holding device and guided to the first winning device in a winable direction.

In a second aspect of the present invention, when a game ball is held by the holding device, the game ball that has already been launched is in contact with the game ball and is opened in the winning direction. I will be guided.
Therefore, when the first winning device is released when the third win occurs, if the game ball is held in the holding device, the winning rate of the game ball to the first winning device is increased, and the first There is a high possibility that a game ball wins a winning device, passes through a specific area, and there is no electric support, and the electric support state ends.
On the other hand, in a state where the holding device does not hold the game ball, the game ball winning rate to the first winning device decreases by supplementing and holding the game ball flowing down to the holding device side. Thereby, the continuation rate of the electric support state can be increased by operating the operating means so as to release the game ball of the holding device when the third hit occurs.

  According to a third aspect of the present invention, in the gaming machine according to the first or second aspect, the first winning device is changed from the closed state to the open state by the occurrence of the third hit in the second game. Immediately before the transition, it is provided with a notifying means for notifying the player to operate the operating means.

  In a third aspect of the present invention, when a game ball is won in the second winning device and the third or fourth winning is generated, the display means displays whether the third winning or the fourth winning as a lottery result. However, generally, in a pachinko gaming machine, a lottery result is displayed in a state that is difficult for a player to understand. For example, in the state of lighting and extinguishing of a plurality of segments provided in an LED segment indicator as a display means, it is informed whether the third hit or the fourth hit, and the lighting of each segment that becomes the third hit There are a plurality of turn-off patterns, and there are a plurality of turn-on and turn-off patterns for each segment in the fourth hit. In this case, remember all the turn-on and turn-off patterns for each segment in the third hit, and if any of these patterns is displayed, for example, immediately operate the operating means to the first winning device. Will prevent the winning of game balls.

However, a general player does not necessarily remember the third hit pattern, and even if the third hit occurs, it is not known, and the operating means cannot be operated. In this case, a player who remembers the above pattern or a player who can confirm the pattern with a memo can increase the continuation rate of the electric support state and increase the number of game balls that can be acquired. Will lose the number of game balls acquired.
Therefore, by notifying the occurrence of the third hit as described above, a player who does not remember the third hit display pattern on the display means can also increase the continuation rate of the electric support state by operating the operation means. The number of game balls that can be acquired can be increased.

  According to the present invention, in the pachinko gaming machine in which the jackpot in the honey is easy to continue by combining the digital patch and the honey and continuing the electric support state, even if the continuation rate of the electric support state is low, the operation means By increasing the continuation rate of the electric support state by the operation, the player's interest is enhanced.

It is a front view which shows the game area | region on the game board of the pachinko game machine which concerns on embodiment of this invention. It is a block diagram which shows the control person of the said pachinko game machine. It is a front view of the game board which shows the change of the flow-down direction of the game ball by the holding device in the game area. It is a front view of the game board which shows the change of the flow-down direction of the game ball by the holding device in the game area. It is a front view of the game board which shows the change of the flow-down direction of the game ball by the holding device in the game area. It is a front view of the game board which shows the change of the flow-down direction of the game ball by the holding device in the game area.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
As shown in FIG. 1, the pachinko gaming machine of this embodiment has a configuration as a pachinko gaming machine in which two types called so-called digipachi and honey are fused.
In the game area 2 on the board surface of the game board 1, a variable display device (display means) 3 is provided at a substantially central portion (slightly below the center and slightly to the left). The variable display device 3 is composed of, for example, a liquid crystal display device, and displays various lottery results of lottery and losing lottery performed by a main controller 14 described later functioning as a winning lottery means. At the time of display, a variation display game of decorative symbols as identification information is displayed, and the above-mentioned lottery result is notified by a jackpot and loss of this variation display game.

  On the outside of the game area 2 of the game board 1, a special figure display 4a, a wing starting symbol display 4b, and a general-purpose display 4c are provided as display means. The special figure display 4a, the wing starting symbol (wing figure) display 4b, and the universal figure display 4c are, for example, 7-segment LED display devices. The special figure display 4a, the feather figure display 4b, and the universal figure display 4c do not need to be a 7-segment display device capable of displaying numbers. For example, a plurality of segments having an arbitrary shape are arbitrary. It may be arranged at a position, and it is only necessary to be able to individually control lighting and extinguishing of each segment. The special figure display 4a, the feather figure display 4b, and the universal figure display 4c display the fluctuation after the fluctuation display time (a part of the segments blinks) set as a part of the fluctuation pattern described later. Special symbols), feather diagrams (feather start symbols) or ordinary symbols (normal symbols) are stopped (lottery results are displayed).

Here, the variable display game of the special figure that stops and displays the special figure after the blinking display of the special figure display 4a is referred to as a special figure game (first game). The variable display game displayed on the variable display device 3 corresponds to the special figure game being executed, and the decorative display variable display game having the same result as the special figure game is displayed on the variable display device. .
A wing diagram game (second game) described later is displayed on the wing diagram display 4b. In addition, a universal game (third game) to be described later is displayed on the universal map display 4c.

Immediately below the variable display device 3, a first start winning opening (first starter) 52 is provided slightly to the left of the left and right center of the game area 2. The first start winning opening 52 is arranged so that the game ball is easier to win than the right hit when the player weakens the launching force of the game ball and hits the left hit.
In the upper right part of the game area, an ordinary variable winning device (second winning device) 5 called a so-called electric chew provided with a second starting winning port (second starting device) 54 is provided. The second start winning opening 54 is arranged so that the game ball is easier to win than the left strike when the player increases the firing force of the game ball and hits it to the right.
This normal variation winning device 5 includes a pair of movable pieces 51 and 51 that can be opened and closed. The movable pieces 51 and 51 are arranged so that a game ball cannot be won in the second start winning opening 54 (so that it is difficult to win a prize). It fluctuates between a closed state (closed state) and a state in which the movable pieces 51 and 51 are opened (open state) so that a game ball can be easily won.

  The first start winning opening 52 is provided with a first start winning ball detection sensor 53a (shown in FIG. 2) for detecting the winning of a game ball. The first start winning ball detection sensor 53a is provided in the main controller 14. In addition, when the game ball wins the first start winning opening 52, the first start winning signal is output. The second start winning opening 54 is provided with a second start winning ball detection sensor 53b (shown in FIG. 2) for detecting the winning of a game ball. The second start winning ball detection sensor 53b is a main control. A second start winning signal is output to the device 14 when the game ball wins the second start winning opening 54. The main controller 14 acquires each big hit (first hit or second hit) of the special figure game (variable display game) or a random number that determines the loss based on the input of the first start winning signal. Further, the main control device 14 acquires each big hit (third hit or fourth hit) of the feather figure game or a random number that determines the deviation based on the input of the second start winning signal.

  Further, the variable display device 3 is provided with a special figure reservation number display area in which a special figure reservation number, which will be described later, is displayed at the peripheral portion of the screen. In the main controller 14, when a start winning signal is input from the first start winning ball detection sensor 53a, 1 is added to the first special figure hold number within a range of an upper limit (for example, 4), and this start winning is obtained. When the special figure game and the variable display game are started based on the above, 1 is subtracted from the special figure holding number. This special figure hold number is displayed as the number of marks in the special figure hold number display area.

  Similarly, when the start winning signal is input from the second start winning ball detection sensor 53b, the main controller 14 adds 1 to the number of reserved figures within the upper limit (for example, 4), and this start When the feather figure game is started based on the winning, 1 is subtracted from the feather figure hold number. This feather figure reserve number is displayed as the number of LEDs lit on a part of the display lamp group 4d made of LEDs. The second start winning opening 54 provided with the second start winning ball detection sensor 53b immediately opens the wing member 81 of the wing variation winning apparatus (first winning apparatus) 8 described later based on the winning of the game ball. Preferably, even if a game ball wins the second start winning opening 54, it may not be held. In the following description, it is assumed that even if a game ball wins the second start winning opening 54, the winning of the game ball is not suspended.

Further, a special variable winning device (third winning device) 6 having a big winning port 61 is provided below the variable display device 3 and further below the first start winning port 52. The special variable winning device 6 has a structure as a so-called attacker, and is provided with a movable door 62 that opens and closes a large winning opening 61. In a normal game state, the movable door 62 wins a game ball. When the game is in a closed state where it is standing and closed so that it does not flow into the mouth 61 and the result of the special game is a big hit, and a big hit gaming state occurs, the game ball falls down substantially horizontally so that it can easily flow in. Opened open state. The special variable winning device 6 is provided at a position where the game ball wins in substantially the same manner whether it is left-handed or right-handed.
The special variation winning device 6 is provided with a big winning ball detection sensor 63 for detecting a game ball won in the big winning opening 61.

  In the case of a big win, as a big win game state, for example, a one round operation as an opening / closing operation in which the special variable winning device 6 is changed from a closed state to an open state and then closed again is performed for a predetermined number of rounds. To do. For example, in the big hit gaming state, the predetermined number of rounds is about 15 although it may vary depending on the pachinko gaming machine. The number of rounds may vary depending on the type of jackpot. Control of the special variable winning device 6 in the big hit gaming state is performed by the main controller 14 as a hit state control means. As described later, the game game state described above also occurs when a game ball won in the wing variation winning device 8 passes through the special area 85 instead of the general area 84.

  In the upper right part of the variable display device 3, a normal symbol (ordinary diagram) starting port (third starting device) 7 as a through chucker is provided. Further, a passing ball detection sensor 71 for detecting a game ball that passes through the inside of the general map start port 7 is provided corresponding to the normal start port 7, and when the passing ball detection sensor 71 detects a game ball, the main control device 14 To output a passing ball detection signal. Based on the input of the passing ball detection signal, the main control device 14 performs a general drawing lottery for drawing the winning when the normal variation winning device 5 is opened and the losing that keeps the normal variation winning device 5 closed. Do. The result of the general drawing lottery is notified by displaying the normal variable display game (hereinafter referred to as a general game) on the general map display 4c. A display lamp group 4d is provided on the above-mentioned general-purpose display 4c, and displays the number of general-purpose holds reserved in the same manner as the number of special-purpose holds. The normal start port 7 is arranged at a position where the game ball is more likely to win the prize when the player hits the player with a stronger firing force than the player hits the player to the left.

  As described above, when the normal game is won, the normal variation winning device 5 is opened, and the winning rate of the game ball to the normal variation winning device 5 (second start winning port 54) is increased, and the wing diagram is increased. The opportunity to start the game is increasing. In addition, on the left side of the game area 2, a plurality of general winning ports 10, 10 are provided. Further, a general winning ball detection sensor 11 for detecting a game ball won in the general winning ports 10, 10 is provided corresponding to the general winning ports 10, 10, respectively.

  A wing variation winning device 8 is provided on the right side of the variable display device 3. The wing variation winning device 8 includes a winning opening 82 through which a game ball can win, the above-described wing member 81 that opens and closes the winning opening 82, and a specific area 85 provided in an internal space in which the game ball wins. And a general area 64. When a game ball wins the second start winning port 54 and reaches the third or fourth win, the wing member 81 of the wing variation winning device 8 is opened and the game ball can be won. The winning opening 82 of the wing variation winning device 8 is arranged at a position where the game ball is more likely to win than when the game ball is hit to the right when the launch force of the game ball is strengthened and the game ball is hit to the right.

  Inside the wing variation winning device 8, there is provided a wing winning ball detection sensor 86 (see FIG. 2) for detecting a game ball won in the wing variation winning device 8. In addition, the above-described specific area 85 and the general area 84 are provided inside the feather fluctuation winning device 8, and the game balls that have won the feather fluctuation winning apparatus 8 pass through the specific area 85 or the general area 84. Is set to Further, a specific area passing ball detection sensor 87 is provided in the specific area 85 so as to detect a game ball passing through the specific area 85. When the game ball passes through the specific area 85, the above-mentioned jackpot gaming state that opens and closes the above-described special variation winning device 6 is generated. Note that the jackpot gaming state that occurs when the first win or the second hit in the special figure game and the jackpot gaming state that occurs when the game ball passes through the specific area 85 as described above are the same. However, the number of rounds may be different.

  In addition, a distribution device 87 that distributes the winning game balls to either the specific area 85 or the general area 84 is provided inside the wing variation winning apparatus 8, and the game balls are separated from the specific area 85 by the distribution device 87. They are distributed to any one of the general areas 84. With this allocating device 87, it is possible to set a distribution rate at which the winning game balls pass through the specific area 85, and the distribution apparatus so that the game balls are distributed to the specific area at a preset distribution ratio. 87 is controlled. Here, the distribution rate is set by adjusting the time at which the distribution member 88 of the distribution device 87 is at a position where the game balls are distributed to the specific area 85 and the time at which the distribution balls 88 are distributed to the general area. It has become. The sorting member 88 is driven by a region sorting solenoid 89. Note that various well-known devices can be used as the sorting device 87, and the method of setting the sorting rate is also determined based on the adopted sorting device.

  A holding device 9 is provided in the vicinity of the winning opening 82 where the game ball of the wing variation winning device 8 wins and the position of the opened wing member 81. The holding device 9 includes a tray portion 91 that holds a game ball flowing down the game area 2 when it flows in. Note that the tray 91 is made of a low-repulsion member whose repulsive force is weaker than that of the game ball, and when the game ball flows in, it suppresses the game ball from jumping and increases the possibility that the game ball is held. However, it may be structurally difficult for the game ball to jump.

  The tray 91 has, for example, a semicircular structure, and is configured to receive a game ball that has flowed down with the upper side opened. In addition, the saucer unit 91 can hold one game ball as a predetermined number of game balls. Further, the tray 91 is arranged so that the game ball easily flows when the game ball is launched aiming at the winning opening 82 of the wing fluctuation winning device 8 by increasing the firing force of the game ball. The tray 91 is rotatable to tilt to the right, and the holding release solenoid 93 causes the tray 91 to receive the game ball with the opening facing upward, and the game ball with the opening tilted to the lower right. It can be driven so as to fluctuate between the discharge position and the discharge position. The holding release solenoid 93 is activated by an operation input signal from the push button switch 30 to the main control device. For example, when the button switch 30 is pressed, the holding tray solenoid 91 moves the tray 91 from the receiving position to the discharging position, stops at the discharging position, and then returns to the receiving position again. The button switch 30 is provided on a front frame or the like that supports the game board 1 of the pachinko gaming machine (for example, a front portion of an upper plate provided below the glass door of the front frame).

  In addition, the holding device 9 is configured to discharge the held game ball by rotating the opening of the tray 91 toward the lower right as described above. At the lower right of the holding device 9, a predetermined winning opening 96 for winning the game ball released from the holding device 9 at a position distant from the holding device 9 from a position where the game ball of the wing variation winning device 8 flows in is a high probability. Is provided on the game board 1. The winning prize opening 96 is provided with a pending winning ball detection sensor 97 that detects a game ball won in the winning prize opening 96.

  In addition, at the lowermost end portion of the game area 2 below the special variable prize winning device 6, an out port 12 that discharges a game ball that has not won any prize port to the back of the game board 1 outside the game area 2. Is provided. In addition, on the front surface of the game board 1, a flow regulation changing member such as a game nail 13 (partially shown) or a windmill (not shown) that regulates the flow direction of the game ball and changes the flow direction is provided. .

  Next, the control system of the pachinko gaming machine of this example will be described with reference to the block diagram shown in FIG. The control system of the pachinko machine is roughly divided into a main control unit (main control means as a control device for the main board) 15, a sub control unit (sub control means as a control device on the sub board side) 16, and these main control units. The power supply device supplies power to the control unit 15 and the sub-control unit 16. The main control unit 15 includes a main control device 14 composed of, for example, a one-chip microcomputer for a gaming machine. The main control device 14 includes a CPU 14a that executes a program, a program and data used in the program. A ROM 14b that is stored, a RAM 14c that stores data generated based on a program, various data read from the ROM 14b, and a frequency generation circuit unit 14d are provided.

  Signals from various sensors provided in the pachinko gaming machine can be input to the main control device 14 (CPU 14a). The first start winning ball detection sensor 53a, the second starting winning ball detection sensor 53b, A ball detection sensor 63, a feather winning ball detection sensor 86, a specific area passing ball detection sensor 87, a passing ball detection sensor 71, a reserved winning ball detection sensor 97, and a general winning ball detection sensor 11 are connected, and a game ball is won. Correspondingly, an operation for operating a game ball payout detection sensor 18 for detecting a prize ball paid out from a game ball payout device 17 for paying out a prize ball, an error detection sensor 19 for detecting an error in a pachinko gaming machine, and a holding device 9 A button switch 30 as a means is connected.

  The main controller 14 outputs various signals for operating various devices of the pachinko gaming machine. For example, a central control device 20 for collecting and managing data of each gaming machine installed in a game store is connected to the main control device 14 so that data can be input from the main control device 14. The main control device 14 is connected to a payout control device 22, a symbol control device 23, a lamp control device 24, and a voice control device 25 as sub control devices (sub control means). (Control command) can be output.

  Here, since the payout control device 22 performs the main control of the game in the pachinko gaming machine for substantially paying out the winning ball, it is included in the main control unit 15, and the symbol control related to the effect of the game The device 23, the lamp control device 24, and the sound control device 25 are included in the sub-control unit 16.

The main controller 14 is connected to a special figure display 4a, a feather figure display 4b, and a universal figure display 4c. The main controller 14 controls the special figure display of the special figure display 4a and the feather figure display. The display control of the wing diagram of the device 4b and the display control of the general diagram of the general diagram display 4c are performed.
In addition, the main control device 14 includes a normal variation solenoid 55 that drives the movable pieces 51 and 51 of the above-described normal variation winning device 5, a special variation solenoid 64 that drives the movable door 62 of the special variation winning device 6, and a wing variation prize. A wing variation solenoid 83 for driving the wing member 81 of the device 8 is connected to each other, and these solenoids 55, 64, 83 are controlled by a drive signal from the main controller.
The main controller is connected to a region sorting solenoid 89 that drives the sorting member 88 of the sorting device 87 and a holding discharge solenoid 93 that drives the tray 91 of the holding device 9. 89 and 93 are controlled by a drive signal from the main controller.

  In addition, the payout control device 22 is connected to a game ball payout device 17 which is controlled by the payout control device 22 and pays out award balls and rental balls, and reads the data of the prepaid card (recording medium) 26 to play the game. A CR unit 27 for performing ball lending control is connected via a ball lending signal control device 28. The payout control device 22 pays out a prize ball based on a command from the main control device 14 and pays out a ball based on a ball lending signal input from the CR unit 27 via a ball lending signal control device 28. Take control.

  The main controller 15 is not directly connected to the main controller 14, but includes a launch control device 29 a that controls a launch drive device 29 of a hitting ball launcher (not shown) that launches a game ball into the game area 2. A rotary operation handle 29b, a firing stop button 29c, and a touch sensor 29d for operating the launching of the game ball are connected to the launch control device 29a.

  The main control device 14 of the main control unit 15 controls the progress of the game in the pachinko gaming machine. The first starting winning ball detection sensor 53a, the second starting winning ball detection sensor 53b, the big winning ball detection sensor 63, the wings When a game ball detection signal is input from the winning ball detection sensor 86, the pending winning ball detection sensor 97, or the general winning ball detection sensor 11, that is, when a gaming ball wins at each winning hole, the payout control device 22. A command is output and game balls are paid out as prize balls.

  Further, the main control device 14 as the first game control means performs the above-described special figure hold number processing when the start winning signal is input from the first start winning ball detection sensor 53a, and the special figure hold number is the upper limit. If it is less than that, it acquires various random numbers (winning determination random number, symbol random number, production random number) as lottery determination information used in the lottery process for determining the big win or loss of the special figure game, and the random number is stored in the RAM 14c (random number storage means). Part of). In addition, at the start of the special figure game, a big win or a loss of the special figure game is determined by a lottery process based on the winning determination random number. In the determination of jackpot or loss, a jackpot determination table in which the jackpot determination value is registered is used, and the jackpot determination value registered in the table matches the hit determination random number. The jackpot determination value is a numerical value in a numerical range that the hit determination random number can take.

Also, the jackpot type is determined based on the design random number. Special maps include special charts for outliers, special charts for multiple jackpots with no time (first hit), and special charts for multiple jackpots with short cuts (second hit). By determining one special figure from a plurality of special figures excluding the figure by lottery, it is determined whether the big hit without time or the big hit with time. The time saving will be described later.
Further, the variation pattern is determined by lottery based on the above-described effect random numbers. The fluctuation pattern is determined by determining the length of the fluctuation display game (the time of the fluctuation display game and the special figure game), the so-called reach type, and the like. Whether to reach or not, and to reach, the type of reach such as normal reach, super reach or premium reach is determined. In the case of a jackpot, all will be reach, so the type of reach will be determined.

Based on these determinations by lottery, a special figure game is displayed on the special figure display 4a under the control of the main control device 14, and at the end of the special figure game, one of the special figures for the shift or the above-mentioned special figure for winning One special figure is stopped and displayed.
Further, the main control device 14 outputs a command to the symbol control device 23, the lamp control device 24, the voice control device 25, and the like for display of the decorative symbol variation display game on the variable display device 3, notification of the result, and production. .

  The conditions for starting the special figure game (variable display game) that triggers each of the lotteries described above are as follows: when the previous special figure game ends in an outlier and when the special figure game is a big hit, When the game ball passes through the specific area 85 and becomes a jackpot gaming state in which the special variable winning device 6 is released, the special figure holding number becomes 1 or more when the jackpot gaming state is ended. Or the first start winning signal is input. In the short-time state, when the big hit gaming state occurs based on the occurrence of the short-term hit, the gaming state after the big hit gaming state becomes the short-time state. In the case of no time saving, the state after the big hit gaming state is not a time saving but a normal state (non-time saving state).

  Further, the main control device 14 as the second game control means, when the start winning signal is input from the second start winning ball detection sensor 53b, the main control device 14 does not hit the wing start symbol (wing diagram) game (second game). The winning determination random number used in the lottery, and, in the case of winning, a symbol random number for determining per hour without time (per third) and per hour with shorter time (per fourth) are acquired. In this case, as in the case of the special figure game, the winning or losing is determined, and in the case of winning, one wing chart is selected from the wing charts having no time and the wing chart having a plurality of times. And display. The wing diagram (feather start symbol) is a name given for convenience, and the wing diagram may be a special diagram.

It should be noted that in the feather figure game, the probability of being out of play is extremely low, and in actuality, either per unit with or without time is generated. If there is a shortage, the win member 81 of the wing variation winning device 8 is released by winning the game, and the game ball wins and the winning game ball passes through the specific area 85. As a result, when a jackpot state in which the special variable winning device 6 is opened occurs, the gaming state when the jackpot state is ended becomes a short-time state. In the case of no time saving, the time saving state is not entered at the end of the jackpot gaming state, and the normal state is obtained. In addition, when the wing diagram game is a win, whether the wing diagram game is stopped or not, whether the wing diagram stopped on the wing diagram display 4b at the end of the wing diagram game, Judgment can be made based on the wing chart.
However, in this example, the wing chart is not as easy to understand as the conventional special figure, and only the player who remembers all of the special figures per short time or can take a note of it. Therefore, it is not possible to reliably determine the occurrence per time. In addition, it is good also as what makes it easy to distinguish the wing figure per short time and the wing figure per short time.

  In addition, when the detection signal of the game ball is input from the passing ball detection sensor 71, the main control device 14 performs the process of adding the above-mentioned number of the usual figure hold and hits the usual figure game (third game). The hit determination random number used in the lottery process for determining the random number is acquired, and the random number is stored when the number of reserved drawings is less than the upper limit. In addition, as a predetermined start condition, the normal game is started at the end of the previous normal game, or at the end of the opening / closing operation of the normal variable winning device 5 after the win, and the normal figure holding number is decremented by one. At this time, the hit of the usual game is determined by a lottery process using a hit random number.

  In addition, the main control device 14 receives the above-described feather figure game that is performed by winning a game ball in the second start winning port 54 provided with the normally variable winning device 5 as the first winning device control means (third winning device). Or the fourth variation), the wing variation solenoid 83 that drives the wing member 81 of the wing variation winning device 8 is controlled to change the wing variation winning device 8 from the closed state to the open state. Do.

  Further, the main control device 14 serves as the second winning device control means when the ordinary game is won (fifth winning), the movable pieces 51 and 51 of the normal variable winning device (second winning device) 5. Is controlled to change the normal variation winning device 5 from the closed state to the open state. In addition, the main control device 14 uses the special winning game control means as special means when the special game is a big hit (first win, second win) or when the game ball passes through the specific area 85. The special winning solenoid 64 that opens and closes the movable door 62 of the variable winning device (third winning device) 6 is controlled to change the special variable winning device 6 from the closed state to the open state based on a predetermined condition. Control to generate a state.

  Moreover, the main control apparatus 14 changes the conditions of a usual game as a 3rd game state control means with a time-short state and a normal state. That is, in the normal state, the game time of the usual game is long and the probability of hitting the usual game is low. On the other hand, in the short time state as the electric support state, the game time of the ordinary game is shorter than the normal state, and the hit probability of the ordinary game is higher than the normal state. As a result, the probability that the normal game per time is won in the short time state is higher than in the normal state.

Further, the main control device 14 as the second winning device control means makes the opening time longer in the shorter time state than in the normal state when the normal variable winning device is released when the normal game is won. In addition, the number of times the normally variable winning device is released with respect to one hit of the usual game is larger in the shorter time than in the normal state.
In addition, the time reduction state ends when the sum of the number of executions of the special figure game and the feather figure game reaches 100, for example, and becomes a normal state.

  The symbol control device 23 as the variable display game display control means of the sub-control unit 16 controls the variable display device 3, and the variable display device 3 is connected via a video display processor 35. The display on the variable display device 3 of the decorative symbol variable display game is controlled by the symbol control device 23 based on each jackpot and loss determined by the main controller 14 and the variable display time as the variation pattern. . In addition, the symbol control device 23 controls the display of the special figure reservation number mark in the special figure reservation number display area 31 of the variable display device 3 based on the calculated special figure reservation number in the main control device 14.

  The lamp control device 24 of the sub-control unit 16 is provided on the front frame that supports the board-related electrical decoration (light source such as LED) 24a provided on the board surface of the game board 1 and the game board 1 of the pachinko gaming machine, A glass door-related electric decoration (light source such as an LED) 24b covering the front surface of the game board 1 is connected to control an effect produced by an LED, a lamp, or the like.

  The sound control device 25 is connected to a sound generation device 25a including a sound processor, an amplifier, a speaker, and the like, and the sound control device 25 controls output of effect sound, sound, music, and the like for production.

  In such a gaming machine, as in the conventional case described above, when a game is played in a normal state rather than a short-time state, the player strikes the game ball left and aims at the first start winning opening 52. Thus, when the game ball wins the first start winning opening 52, a special game is played on the special display 4a, and a variable display game is played on the variable display device 3. When a win with short time (second win) occurs in this variable display game, the time after the big hit gaming state becomes short.

  When the short time state is reached, when the game ball passes through the normal figure starting port 7 as compared with the normal state, the normal figure game is won with a high probability, and the normally variable winning device 5 is opened, The opening time of the normal variation winning device 5 becomes longer. As a result, a large number of game balls are won at the second start winning port 54 of the normal variation winning device 5, and the wing diagram game is won based on this, and the wing member 81 of the wing variation winning device 8 is released, and the wing variation A relatively large number of game balls can be awarded to the winning device 8. Along with this, there is a high possibility that the game ball passes through the specific area 85, and when the game ball passes through the specific area 85, a big hit game state in which the special variable winning device 6 is released occurs.

After the jackpot game state, as described above, the wing chart game is in a non-time-short state if the wing chart game is in the absence of time, and if the wing chart game is in the time-short game state, it is in a time-short state. If the short-time state continues, the player continues to make a right turn, passes the game ball to the normal start port 7 as described above, and finally passes the game ball through the specific area 85 as described above. Then, the big hit gaming state occurs again in a short period of time.
In the non-time-short state, the player switches to the left-handed position, wins the game ball in the first start winning opening 52, and again tries to generate a short-time hit in the special game.
Therefore, by generating a hit with a short time in the wing chart game, a state advantageous to a player who can generate a big hit gaming state in a short period of time will continue. The state advantageous to the player will end.

  Here, in the case of a short-time state, even if there is no shortage in the lottery of the feather figure game that is performed based on the winning of the game ball in the second start winning opening 54, the wing variation prize based on the short-time shortage If the game ball wins and the specific area 85 is not passed when the device 8 is released, the big hit gaming state does not occur, the time-saving state is not ended, and the time-saving state is maintained as it is. Here, whether or not there is a short time is displayed on the wing diagram display 4b, so when the wing diagram per short time is displayed, the launch of the game ball is stopped and the wing variation prize is awarded. It is conceivable to prevent the game ball from winning the device 9. However, the time from when the wing chart display 4b is displayed on the wing chart display 4b until the wing fluctuation prize-winning device 8 is released is short, and when the wing chart display 4b is displayed on the wing chart display 4b, the game ball is fired. Even if the game is stopped, it is highly likely that the timing at which the game ball previously fired can win the wing variation winning device 8 is released.

Therefore, even if the game ball is stopped immediately after the wing chart display 4b is displayed, the occurrence of the big hit gaming state due to the short time cannot be prevented.
On the other hand, in this embodiment, the change of the state of the holding device 9, that is, the state in which the game ball is held in the tray 91 at the receiving position, the state in which the game ball is not held in the tray 91 at the receiving position, The winning rate of the game ball to the open wing variation winning device 8 changes depending on the state where the tray 91 is displaced from the receiving position and close to the discharging position.

  For example, as shown in FIG. 3, in a state where the game ball is not held in the receiving tray portion 91 at the receiving position, the right-handed game ball flows down mainly toward the receiving tray portion 91, and reaches the receiving tray portion 91. Since it is in a state of being easily held, it is highly likely that the game ball is not held in the open wing variation winning device 8 and the game ball is held in the tray portion 91. Even if the game ball is not held by the tray 91, the winning rate of the game ball to the wing variation winning device 8 is lowered by the open wing member 81 of the wing variation winning device 8, the game nail 13, or the like. ing. For these reasons, when the game ball is not held in the tray portion at the receiving position, the winning rate of the game ball to the open swing fluctuation winning device 8 is low. In addition, the tray 91 is made of a low repulsion member as described above, and there is a low possibility that a game ball that collides with the tray 91 will bounce and win the open wing variation prize winning device 8.

  Here, as shown in FIG. 4, even if the right-handed game ball is held in the tray part 91, by pressing the button switch 30, the tray part 91 is rotated, and the held game ball is set to a predetermined value. Can be released toward the winning opening 96 of the player. The game balls released at this time win a prize opening 96 with a high probability. That is, the holding device 9 holds a game ball for winning a prize at the winning opening 96. Therefore, when the wing diagram per time is displayed on the wing diagram display 4b, the game switch to the open wing variation winning device 8 is released by pushing the button switch 30 and discharging the game ball from the holding device 9. The winning rate of the ball can be reduced.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 5, in a state where the game ball is held in the tray 91 at the receiving position, the right-handed game ball collides with the highly repulsive game ball held in the tray 91 with a high probability. And bouncing. At this time, the shape and arrangement of the tray 91 are set so that the possibility that the game ball bounced is directed to the winning opening 82 of the open swing fluctuation winning device 8 avoiding the game nail 13 or the like is increased. Correspondingly, the position of the game nail 13 is set so that the game ball bounced by hitting the held game ball can easily win the wing fluctuation winning device 8. Thereby, in a state where the game ball is held in the tray 91 at the receiving position, the winning rate of the game ball is increased to the open wing variation winning device.

  Therefore, in the state where the game ball is held in the tray 91 at the receiving position, and when there is no shortage in the wing diagram game, if the held game ball is not released as described above, the probability is high. A game ball wins the open wing fluctuation winning device 8, a jackpot gaming state based on the absence of time reduction occurs, and the time reduction state ends.

  In addition, as shown in FIG. 6, after the button switch 30 is pressed, the game ball held by the tray portion 91 of the holding device 9 disposed at the release position is released to the winning opening 96 and then returned to the reception position. Since the tray 91 is low in resilience when the ball has flowed down, the game ball is prevented from bouncing into the wing fluctuation winning device 8 without being bounced. Further, the tray 91 has a center at the bottom as a center of rotation, and the tray 91 at the discharge position is lower than the tray 91 at the receiving position. Thereby, when a game ball hits the saucer part 91 before returning from the release position, the position is lowered, and the winning rate of the game ball to the wing variation winning device 8 of the game ball is lowered.

That is, the tray 91 in the state where the game ball is held at the receiving position increases the winning rate of the game ball to the wing fluctuation winning device 8, and the tray 91 that does not hold the game ball at the receiving position and the tray at the discharge position. The unit 91 reduces the winning rate of the game ball to the feather fluctuation winning device 8.
Accordingly, when the game ball is won at the second start winning port 54 of the normal variation prize winning device 5 while the game ball is held in the holding device 9, it is not necessary to shorten the time when looking at the feather display 4b. When a special figure is displayed, the winning rate of the game ball to the open wing fluctuation winning device 8 is lowered by pressing the button switch 30 and releasing the game ball from the tray 91 of the holding device 9. Therefore, it is possible to suppress the occurrence of a non-time-short state based on the absence of time.

  Further, when the game ball is won in the second start winning port 54 of the normal variation winning device 5 while the game ball is held in the holding device 9, it is likely that there is a short time when the wing diagram display 4b is seen. When the special figure is displayed, the tray unit 91 of the holding device 9 is held at the receiving position without pressing the button switch 30, and the game ball is moved to the open swing fluctuation winning device 8 by the held game ball. By increasing the winning rate, it is possible to promote the occurrence of a short time based on the shortage.

  As a result, when the holding device 9 is operated by the button switch 30, it is possible to increase the time continuation rate. Therefore, the holding device by the button switch 30 can be used without increasing the time continuation rate based on these lottery probabilities by making the lottery probability per time shortage in the feather figure game higher than the lottery probability per time shortage. The operation of 9 can increase the substantial time saving continuation rate. Therefore, the time continuation rate based on the lottery probability can be set low.

  In addition, even if the time reduction rate is low, the player has an interest in increasing the time reduction rate by operating the holding device 9 of the button switch 30. Therefore, in order to attract the player's interest, It is not necessary to increase the continuation rate of the game, and by increasing the continuation rate of the short time, it is possible to prevent the game balls that can be acquired by the player from becoming excessive.

  In this embodiment, it is determined whether or not the player is operating the button switch 3 by determining whether or not the wing diagram displayed on the wing diagram display 4b as the display means is a wing diagram per unit of time. However, depending on the player, it is difficult to determine whether or not there is no time saving from the wing diagram. For such a player, the pachinko gaming machine of this embodiment is disadvantageous. As a result, there is a possibility that a large disparity may occur in the number of game balls that can be obtained from the player who can determine the timelessness per turn from the wing diagram.

  Therefore, when a timeless hit occurs in the wing figure game, for example, a button switch is displayed on the variable display device 3 at least at a timing at which the wing figure per timelessness is displayed on the wing figure display device 4b or at a slightly earlier timing. It is conceivable to notify the occurrence of the shortage by performing a display instructing to press 30.

In this case, when the main control device 14 as the second game control means hits the wing diagram game that can be started by passing the game ball through the general start port 7, the main control device 14 Outputs to the symbol control device 23 of the sub-control unit 16 a command indicating that a timeless hit has occurred in the feather figure game.
In the symbol control device 23 to which the command is input, the variable display device 3 performs a display for instructing to immediately press the button switch 30. When the variable display device 3 is notified and the button switch 30 is pressed, if the game ball has already won the open wing variation winning device 8, for example, the wing variation winning is determined from the output of the above command. It is preferable to lengthen the time until the device 8 is opened.

  By notifying whether or not the wing chart displayed on the wing chart display 4b is in the absence of the shortage by notifying the occurrence of the shortage without the above mentioned time, the button switch 30 holds the holding device when the shortage without the shortage occurs. It is possible to prevent the game ball from passing through the specific area 85 by operating 9 to block the winning of the game ball to the feather fluctuation winning device 8. As a result, even a player who cannot determine whether or not the winning time is based on the displayed wing diagram can acquire a large number of game balls, and a large difference between the player and the player who can determine the losing time without using a wing diagram can be obtained. Can be resolved. In addition, it is not necessary to perform notification for every short time, and it may be determined whether or not to notify by lottery, for example, when there is no short time.
