Description

  The present invention generates a start memory in association with the inflow of a game ball to the start port, and when the start memory is digested and confirmed, a special game operation for opening and closing the big prize opening is executed. Related to the machine.

  As a pachinko machine, a special game operation that repeats an opening and closing round that opens and closes the big prize opening when the special symbol starts to fluctuate triggered by the inflow of the game ball to the start port and the winning pattern is determined by the stop pattern mode The configuration to perform is widely known. In a state where the special game operation is being executed, many prize balls are likely to be generated in accordance with the winning of the big winning opening, and this is an opportunity for the player to obtain a great profit.

  In the pachinko gaming machine described above, when a game ball flows into the start port, a start memory is generated, and the control process is executed so that the special symbol starts to fluctuate by digesting the start memory. When a game ball continuously flows into the start port, the start memory is stored and its digestion is suspended. An upper limit is set for the number of start memories that have been suspended (undigested number), and when the number of unstarted memories in the start memory reaches the limit (so-called start memory is full) In the case), a new start memory is not generated and stored even if a game ball flows into the start port. That is, when the number of undigested start memories is the limit number, no new start memories are generated until the start memories are digested next time.

  By the way, in a general pachinko gaming machine, since the start memory is not digested in the execution state of the special game operation described above, the start memory easily reaches the limit number in the execution state of the special game operation, and the start port A so-called waste ball is generated in which no starting memory is generated even when winning a prize. For the purpose of suppressing the generation of such waste balls, for example, Patent Document 1 proposes a configuration in which the limit number that is the upper limit of the number that can be stored in the start memory is changed according to the gaming state. Yes. In this configuration, by increasing the limit number in the execution state of the special game operation, the generation of the waste ball can be suppressed, and the fun of the game can be enhanced.

  By the way, in the above-described conventional configuration of Patent Document 1, since the limit number capable of storing the unstarted start memory in the execution state of the special game operation increases, the number exceeding the normal limit number when the special game operation expires. There are many cases where the undigested start-up memory is stored. After the special game operation expires, the undigested start memory is digested sequentially, but since the number of undigested start memories exceeds the normal limit number, a new prize is awarded to the start opening. Even then, it becomes the waste ball. Therefore, a player who is familiar with pachinko games has a strong tendency to stop the launch of game balls until the number of undigested starting memory reaches the normal limit number until the undigested number becomes less than the limit number . If the act of stopping the launching of the game ball is performed in this manner, the operation rate of the pachinko gaming machine is reduced, which is disadvantageous for the game hall.

  In addition, a general pachinko gaming machine is provided with a start memory number display device for informing the start memory undigested number so that the undigested number that changes according to the start memory storage and digestion can be accurately determined. Informing the player. In addition, since the start memory is a process of executing a symbol generation process that varies the special symbol by digestion, in other words, the execution of the symbol generation process is provided to the player by the generation of the start memory. . Therefore, since the start-up memory provides the player with a profit through the digestion, the reliability of the game can be maintained by informing the player that the digestion is performed. From the above, in order to keep the reliability of the gameability for generating and digesting the start memory sound, it is required to clearly notify the player of the start memory digestion.

  The present invention makes it possible to store a number of start memories exceeding the limit of the start memory in the execution state of the special game operation, and maintain the reliability of the game by the start memory, and after the special game operation expires, We propose a pachinko machine that can suppress the launch stop action.

  The present invention provides a symbol display device for variably displaying a special symbol, a start opening provided with a ball detecting means for detecting a winning of a game ball, and a start memory generated when the ball detecting means for the start opening detects a game ball. Start memory processing means for sequentially digesting the stored undigested start memory, and in accordance with the digestion of the start memory by the start memory processing means, the special symbol is started to fluctuate on the symbol display device and hit or lose. In a pachinko gaming machine comprising a game control means for executing a special game operation for executing a series of symbol generation steps for stopping in a stop symbol mode for determining and opening and closing a big prize opening when the stop symbol mode is winning The start memory processing means generates and stores a start memory with a predetermined limit as an upper limit in association with a game ball winning at the start port in a state in which no special game operation is being executed, Play In the state where the operation is being executed, the number of start memories exceeding the limit number set in the hold limit process is generated and stored in accordance with the game ball winning at the start port, and the special game The game control is provided with a batch digestion process for batch digestion by determining all or a part of the undigested starter memory when the unsettled start memory exceeding the limit number is memorized after the expiration of the operation. The means comprises batch digestion effect processing for executing a series of continuous digestion effect modes that continuously indicate digestion of all the start memory that is digested in batch according to the batch digestion of the start memory by the batch digestion processing. It is a pachinko gaming machine that features it.

  In such a configuration, it is possible to generate and store a start memory exceeding the limit number in the execution state of the special game operation, and store the unstarted start memory exceeding the limit number after the special game operation expires Since all or part of it is digested all at once, it is possible to digest the undigested start-up memory in a relatively short period of time, so that it is possible to suppress the above-described act of stopping the game ball. In addition, since the unsettled start memory stored at the time of the special game operation is determined to be a win by batch digestion, the gameability of hitting or losing by the start memory is maintained. Further, since the continuous digestion effect mode that continuously indicates the batch digestion is executed in accordance with the batch digestion, the player is informed of the digestion of all the start memories that are collectively digested in a relatively short time by the continuous digestion effect mode. it can. Thereby, the player can know that the profit of digesting the start memory has occurred, and the reliability of the game by the start memory can be maintained.

  Thus, according to the present invention, it is possible to suppress the generation of waste balls in the execution state of the special game operation, reduce the time required for digestion by batch digestion of undigested start memory, and Reliability can be maintained. Accordingly, it is possible to suppress the act of stopping the launch of the game ball and to suppress the disadvantage of the game hall while reliably providing the gain of the start memory generated by winning the start opening and maintaining the reliability of the game.

  In addition, in the increase processing of the hold, in the execution state of the special game operation, the configuration in which the start memory is generated and the number that can be stored is unlimited, the limit of the hold limit processing is set as the number that can be stored by generating the start memory Any of the configurations in which the increase limit number larger than the number is defined can be employed. Further, as the undigested start memory to be digested at once, all start memories may be digested at once, or a part (for example, a predetermined number) of start memories may be digested at once. For example, a configuration in which start-up memories for exceeding the limit number are digested at once can be suitably used.

  The pachinko gaming machine of the present invention described above is provided with a start memory number display device for displaying the number of unstarted start memories stored by the start memory processing means, and the batch digest effect processing of the game control means is a batch digest process. In accordance with the collective digestion of the start memory according to the configuration, the continuous digest effect mode is displayed so that the number of start memories that change due to the collective digest continuously changes on the start memory number display device. Proposed.

  In such a configuration, since the number of start memories that change due to batch digestion is continuously displayed and changed on the start memory number display device, the start memory is digested by the display on the start memory number display device. Can be known by the player. For example, the player can easily understand that the start memory is rapidly digested by displaying the number of start memories that decrease due to batch digestion by the continuous decrease of the number of undigested numbers displayed on the start memory number display device. it can. Thereby, the reliability of the game by starting memory can be kept sound. In this case, a series of displays in which the number of undigested start memory continuously decreases in the start memory number display device is a continuous digest effect mode.

  Further, in the pachinko gaming machine of the present invention described above, the collective digestion effect process of the game control means is a stop determined by each start memory that is collectively digested with the collective digestion of the start memory by the collective digest process. A configuration is proposed in which a continuous digestion effect mode in which a symbol mode is continuously displayed on a symbol display device is executed.

  In such a configuration, since each stop symbol form of the start memory that is collectively digested is continuously displayed on the symbol display device, the player can digest the start memory by displaying the stop symbol aspect. I can understand. Since the stop symbol mode is determined by digesting the start memory, the player can surely and easily understand that the start symbol is digested by displaying the stop symbol mode. Therefore, the game reliability by the start memory can be kept sound. Here, as the continuous digestion effect mode, all the start memory stop symbol modes that are collectively digested may be displayed continuously, or a predetermined number of stop symbol modes among the start memory that is collectively digested May be displayed continuously.

  In such a configuration, the player is informed of the digestion of the start memory to be digested in a batch by the effect of displaying on the image notation device, and the player can know the batch digestion relatively easily. . Since the image display device that displays the effect design is a place where the player pays attention during the game, it has a high effect of informing batch digestion.

  As a continuous digesting effect mode that is continuously displayed by this image display, for example, a configuration in which numerical symbols representing the number of undigested starting memories are continuously reduced and displayed, an effect symbol for the effect as an effect symbol indicating a special symbol, etc. A configuration in which the stop symbol mode is continuously displayed can be suitably used.

  In the pachinko gaming machine of the present invention described above, if the game control means wins by the determination of collective digestion by the collective digestion process of the start memory processing means, the start is determined by completing the collective digestion process and determining the hit A configuration is proposed that includes a process of confirming and displaying a special symbol hit stop symbol form according to the memory.

  In such a configuration, each time the start memory is determined to be lost by batch digestion, the digestion is performed one after another, and if the hit determination is made in the process of batch digestion, the batch digestion is completed, and according to the start memory determined to be hit A special symbol design generation process is executed. That is, since the start memories determined to be lost by batch digestion are digested one after another, the time required to digest the start memories stored exceeding the limit number can be shortened. Then, if the hit judgment is made in the process of collective digestion, the profit by the hit is provided. Therefore, according to the present configuration, the above-described operational effect of the present invention can be appropriately exhibited that the act of stopping the launching of the game ball can be suppressed while securing the profit due to the start memory generated in the execution state of the special game operation.

  In addition, when a hit determination is made in the process of batch digestion, a continuous digestion effect mode is executed for all start memories that are batch digested before the hit determination, and the hit determination is performed after the continuous digestion effect mode expires. A configuration in which the symbol generation process is executed according to the start-up memory is preferable.

  In the pachinko gaming machine of the present invention described above, the game control means, when there is a win by the collective digestion determination by the collective digestion process of the start-up memory processing means, after the completion of the collective digestion process, the hit determination A configuration is proposed that includes a process of confirming and displaying a special symbol hit stop pattern according to the start memory.

  In such a configuration, when all or part of the start memory is digested at the time of expiration of the special game operation, and after the end of the collective digestion, there is a start memory determined by hitting the batch digest in the process. The symbol generation process is executed according to the start-up memory determined as appropriate. Even in this configuration, the above-described operation and effect of the present invention that can suppress the act of stopping the launching of the game ball while ensuring the profit due to the start memory generated in the execution state of the special game operation can be appropriately exhibited.

  As described above, the pachinko gaming machine of the present invention can generate and store a start memory exceeding the limit number by a game ball winning at the start opening in the execution state of the special game operation, and the special game operation is completed. If an undigested start memory exceeding the limit number is stored later, all or a part of the start memory is digested at once, and a series of digests of all start memories that are digested collectively are continuously shown. Since the continuous digestion effect mode is executed, it is possible to suppress the generation of waste balls in the execution state of the special game operation, and to suppress the act of stopping the release of game balls by reducing the time required for batch digestion. The disadvantage of the place can be reduced, and further, the reliability of the game by starting memory can be maintained.

In this way, a series of symbol generation processes from the start of variation of the special symbol to the fixed stop is executed by digesting the special start memory. Here, if the special symbol stop symbol mode is the hit stop symbol mode, a big hit is made, and a special game operation described later is executed (see the big prize opening process in FIG. 6).

  Normally, in a state where the symbol generation process is being performed, the speaker and the effect lamp operate in a predetermined manner, and the effect symbol changes on the display screen of the image display 14. Here, on the display screen of the image display 14, as described above, the three special effect symbols indicating the special symbols are displayed, and these special effect symbols are variably displayed according to the symbol generation process in the special symbol display device 15. . That is, the three special effect symbols displayed on the display screen of the image display unit 14 start to change as the special start memory is consumed, and stop after a predetermined time has elapsed to determine the stop symbol pattern for the effect. In this way, on the display screen of the image display device 14, the symbol generation process of the special effect symbol is displayed and executed along with the symbol generation process of the special symbol by the special symbol display device 15. Further, in the symbol generation process by the image display 14, a so-called reach fluctuation effect is executed to enhance the player's expectation of jackpot. When such reach fluctuation effects are executed, the probability of confirming and displaying the hit stop symbol pattern is set to be apparently higher than usual, and the player increases the expectation of jackpot by the reach fluctuation effects. At the same time, excitement can be sustained until the special effect symbol stops changing due to various effects on the display screen.

  The special start memory is composed of a data aggregate of a plurality of random values extracted from various tables for special symbols stored in the storage device ROM, and the plurality of random values flow into the start port 21. The detected game balls are respectively extracted by the special start switch S1 built in the ordinary electric accessory 20 (see the winning detection process in FIG. 4). As described above, each random value constituting the special start memory is used to determine whether or not to win a special symbol, to determine a variation / stop mode of the symbol, a production mode, and the like. It includes a jackpot random number value for determination, a jackpot symbol random number value for determining a stop symbol mode when winning, a lost symbol random number value for determining a stop symbol mode for loss, and the like. By digesting such special start memory, the big hit random number value of the start memory is determined, and if the determination result is win, the process of selecting the hit stop symbol mode according to the big hit symbol random value (in FIG. 5) Special symbol variation stop mode selection process). Accordingly, in the symbol generation process, the selected winning stop symbol mode is stopped and displayed on the special symbol display device 15 (see the special symbol processing in FIG. 5).

  The special start memory generated by winning the start opening 21 is stored and held in a special start storage area set in the storage device RAM until the symbol generation process is started by digestion of the special start memory. Specifically, the special start memory generated during the change of the special symbol and the execution state of the special game operation is not immediately digested but is stored and held in the special start storage area. Here, a predetermined number of special start memories can be held in the special start storage area. Then, the number of special start memories stored and held in the special start storage area is notified by the number of lighting of the special start storage number display devices 17a and 17b. The special start memory number display devices 17a and 17b are driven and controlled by the start number display process of FIG. When the undigested number P increases due to the game ball winning at the start port 21 by the above-described winning detection process, the increase flag = 1. When the increase flag = 1 and the undigested number P <4, the P-th LED is turned on from the left end of the special start memory number display device 17a by the start number display process, and the special start memory number display device 17b. Turn on the Pth. Thereby, the number P of unstarted start memory increased by the game ball winning in the start port 21 is notified by the number of lighting of the special start memory number display devices 17a and 17b. On the other hand, when the undigested number P is reduced by digesting the undigested start-up memory by the special symbol processing described above, the decrease flag = 1. When the decrease flag = 1 and the undigested number P is 4 or less, the (P + 1) -th LED is turned off from the left end of the special start memory number display device 17a and the (P + 1) of the special start memory number display device 17b is turned off. Turn off the). As a result, the start memory undigested number P, which has decreased due to the digestion of the start memory, is notified by the number of lighting of the special start memory number display devices 17a and 17b. As will be described later, when the undigested number P is greater than 4, the special start memory number display device 17b is simply turned on or off, and the LED of the special start memory number display device 17a is turned on. maintain.

  When the undigested special start memory stored in the special start storage area is digested, the special start memory is read and deleted from the special start storage area. The storage / digestion of the special start memory is related to the main part of the present invention and will be described in detail later.

  When the special symbol fluctuated in the special symbol display device 15 is confirmed and stopped in the hit symbol pattern mode, the special game operation is executed according to the big winning opening process of FIG. The special game operation is an operation in which an open / close round in which the special winning opening 25 is opened and closed is executed a predetermined number of times, and as described above, the special game is started when the special symbol stops in a hit / stop symbol form and becomes a big hit. Thereafter, the special game operation is completed by completing a predetermined number of open / close rounds. Here, one open / close round is completed by satisfying either the 30-second opening of the special winning opening 25 or 9 winnings. In the special game operation, this open / close round is repeated 16 times. In such an execution state of the special game operation, 100 or more winnings can be expected at the big winning opening 25, and the player can acquire a large amount of winning balls.

  The main control board 60 and the symbol control board 63 described above constitute start-up storage processing means according to the present invention. Further, the above-described main control board 60, symbol control board 63, and effect control board 62 (image control board 65, sound source control board 66, light source control board 67) constitute a game control means according to the present invention.

  The main part of the present invention will be described according to the following Examples 1 to 3.

  In the configuration of the first embodiment, the upper limit number that can store the special start memory is changed between an execution state in which the special game operation is being executed and a non-execution state in which the special game operation is not being executed. I have to. Specifically, in the non-execution state of the special game operation, when the limit number of four is set as the upper limit number that can store and hold the special start memory, and the four special start memories are stored and held Even if a game ball wins at the starting port 21, no new special starting memory is generated. On the other hand, in the execution state of the special game operation, an increase limit number of 100, which is larger than the limit number (4), is set as the upper limit number that can store and hold the special start memory. Similarly, more than 100 special symbol start memories are not generated and stored.

  That is, in the winning detection process of FIG. 4, when the special game flag = 0 (special game operation non-execution state), the upper limit number n = 4 (limit number) that can be stored is validated, and the special game flag = 1. In the case of (execution state of special game operation), the upper limit number n = 100 (increase limit number) that can be stored is validated. Accordingly, when the special game flag = 1 is set by the special symbol process of FIG. 5, the upper limit number n = 100 is made valid until the special game flag = 0 is set by the big prize opening process of FIG. Here, when the special game flag = 1, the special start memory digestion process is not executed, so that the special start memory exceeds the limit number (4) when the special game flag = 0, and is easily stored and held. .

  Further, as described above, the special symbol processing of FIG. 5 is performed when the special start flag is equal to or less than the limit number (4) when the special game flag = 0, and the special start memory stored is retained in the order of generation. Digest sequentially. On the other hand, if the number of special symbol start memories stored and held (hereinafter referred to as the number of undigested) P exceeds 4 when the special game flag = 0, the collective digest flag = 1. That is, after the expiration of the special game operation, the undigested number P> 4 in many cases, and the collective digest flag = 1.

  When the collective digest flag = 1, the undigested start-up memory exceeding the limit of 4 is collectively digested by the collective digest process of FIG. In the batch digestion process, first, the undigested number P is substituted into the saved undigested number F. Then, the special start memory stored first by subtracting 1 from the undigested number P is read, and the big hit random number value is determined to be a win. Here, when the big hit random number value is judged to be lost, if the undigested number P> 4, 1 is subtracted from the undigested number P again, the next special start-up memory is read, and the winning determination process is successively performed successively. Execute repeatedly. When the undigested number P = 4, the batch digestion process is completed with the batch digest flag = 0 and the continuous performance flag = 1. Even in the collective digestion process, like the special symbol process, when the special start memory is read, the special start memory is erased from the special start memory area of the storage device RAM. On the other hand, when the big hit random number value is determined to be a hit, the special start memory is returned to the special start storage area of the storage device RAM and stored. At this time, adjustment is made in the order of storage so that the returned special start-up memory is first. Then, the batch digestion process is completed by setting the batch digest flag = 0, the continuous performance flag = 1, and the reserve per flag = 1. Here, when the hit determination is made, the batch digestion process is completed even if the undigested number P> 4.

  On the other hand, in the present embodiment, the number of undigested special start memory is notified by the number of lighting of the LED of the special start memory number display device 17a described above, and the number of undigested up to 100 is displayed as the special start memory number. Notification is made based on the number of lighting devices 17b. That is, up to 4 undigested numbers are displayed by turning on both the special start memory number display devices 17a and 17b as described above, and when the number is 5 or more, only the number of turn on the special start memory number display device 17b is displayed. indicate. Even when the number of undigested is 5 or more, the four LEDs of the special start memory number display device 17a are kept in a lit state.

  Here, the display process of the undigested number by the special start memory number display devices 17a and 17b is performed by the start number display process of FIG. 8 described above. In the starting number display process, when the increase flag is set to 1 due to winning at the starting port 21 (see the winning detection process), when the undigested number P is 4 or less, the P-th LED of the special starting memory number display device 17a And the Pth of the special start memory number display device 17b is lit. When the undigested number P exceeds four, the Pth of the special start memory number display device 17b is turned on while keeping all four LEDs of the special start memory number display device 17a turned on. On the other hand, when the start memory is digested collectively by the above-described collective digestion process, since the continuous effect flag = 1, the saved undigested number F is validated and the Fth of the special start memory number display device 17b is turned off. Then, 1 is subtracted from the saved undigested number F. If the F is larger than the undigested number P, the special start memory number display device 17b is turned off continuously. In this way, the process of subtracting 1 from the saved undigested number F by turning off the F-th number of the special start memory number display device 17b until the saved undigested number F becomes equal to the undigested number P subtracted by batch digestion. Execute repeatedly and continuously. As a result, the number of lights on the special start memory number display device 17b continuously decreases, and the player is notified of the number of unsettled numbers displayed by the number of lights. For example, as shown in FIG. 9, when the undigested number P in the special start memory is 15 and the batch digest process is executed, the special start memory number display device 17b displays 15 as shown in FIG. 9A. From the state where the individual lights are turned on, the lights are turned off one by one successively as shown in FIGS. 9B to 9E. In this way, the fact that the undigested start-up memories have been digested in this way is represented by a series of turn-off modes in which the turn-on number of the special start-up memory number display device 17b is continuously turned off, and the player is surely notified. To do.

  In the start number display process described above, when the saved undigested number F = the undigested number P based on the continuous effect flag = 1, the start number display process is completed as the continuous effect flag = 0. Here, when the hit determination is performed in the above-described batch digestion process, the preliminary hit flag = 1, and accordingly, the hit digest flag = 1. In the case of the hit digest flag = 1, since the hit determination is made in the process of batch digestion, even if the number of undigested> 4, the special start determined by the hit determination by the above special symbol processing of FIG. The symbol generation process is executed by digesting the memory. In this symbol generation process, since the final stop is performed in the winning stop symbol mode, the special game operation is executed by the big prize opening process.

  As described above, according to the configuration of the first embodiment, in the execution state of the special game operation, since the number capable of generating the special start memory is increased, the special start memory is generated even if the start opening 21 is won. Therefore, the generation of so-called waste balls can be suppressed as much as possible. Thus, the special start memory gain generated by winning the start opening 21 is surely provided to the player in the execution state of the special game operation. And in the execution state of special game operation, since a player comes to pay attention not only to the prize winning opening 25 but also to the winning opening 21, it is possible to improve the interest of the game. Moreover, the time required for the digestion can be shortened as much as possible by collectively digesting the unstarted special start memory after the special game operation is completed. As a result, it is possible to suppress the act of stopping the launch of the game ball in a state where a large number of undigested special start-up memories are stored, and it is possible to reduce the disadvantages of the game field that accompany the stop of the launch of the game ball. Further, the player is informed of the digestion of the special start memory to be digested collectively by turning off the special start memory number display device 17b so as to continuously decrease the number of lighting. Thus, since the player can surely and easily know that the batch digest that digests the special start memory is executed in a relatively short time, the player's trust in the game that the special start memory is digested collectively. Sex can be kept appropriate.

  Further, in the first embodiment, the special symbol start memory for exceeding the limit number (4) in the non-execution state of the special game operation is collectively digested, and thereafter, when the number is less than the limit number, the symbols are generated one by one. Since the process is executed, the gameability of executing the symbol generation process in the non-executed state is maintained.

  In the configuration of the first embodiment, the batch storage effect processing according to the present invention is configured by the start memory display processing, and a series of effects in which the number of undigested symbols is continuously reduced on the image display 14. The continuous digestion effect aspect concerning this invention is comprised by the aspect which performs. The winning detection process constitutes a hold restriction process and a hold increase process according to the present invention. The special start memory number display devices 17a and 17b constitute a start memory number display device according to the present invention.

  In the configuration of the second embodiment, as in the first embodiment described above, the batch start digestion process is performed so that the special start memory can be stored and retained up to the increase limit number (100) in the execution state of the special game operation. This is a configuration in which the digestion of all the special start memories to be performed is notified by displaying the stop symbol form continuously on the special symbol display device 15. Here, even in the configuration of the second embodiment, the same winning detection processing, special symbol processing, and big winning opening processing as those of the first embodiment are applied, and the description thereof is omitted.

  As in the first embodiment, when the number of undigested P in the special start-up memory is stored in excess of the limit number of 4 after the special game operation is completed, the limit number is exceeded by the batch digest process of FIG. Batch digest special start-up memory. In the batch digestion process of the second embodiment, special start-up memories are sequentially digested to determine a win, and when a loss determination is made, a stop symbol pattern for determining the loss is determined and stored in the storage device RAM. This is sequentially performed until the undigested number P reaches the limit number of four. When the undigested number P = 4, the batch digestion process is completed with the batch digest flag = 0 and the continuous performance flag = 1. Here, as described above, the stop symbol pattern is determined in accordance with a lost symbol random value constituting the special start memory.

  Note that if the result of the special start memory win determination by the collective digestion process is a win, the special start memory is stored and retained, and the collective digest process is performed with the collective digest flag = 0, the continuous production flag = 1, and the preliminary permissible flag = 1. Expires. Even in this case, for the special start memory that has been digested in a batch before the hit determination, the stop symbol pattern for determining each loss is determined and stored.

  When the continuous effect flag = 1, the batch digest effect process of FIG. 11 is executed. In this collective digestion effect process, the saved undigested number F set by the collective digestion process is validated, and 1 is subtracted from the saved undigested number F, and the stop symbol pattern stored first in the storage device RAM is read. . In accordance with the stop symbol pattern, the special symbol display device 15 performs a special symbol display process for displaying the special symbol in the stop symbol pattern x (see FIG. 12), and the image display unit 14 displays the special effect symbol in accordance with the same stop symbol pattern. An effect display process for displaying the lost effect stop symbol aspect y (see FIG. 12) is executed. In the collective digestion effect process, the stop symbol pattern is sequentially read and the special symbol display device 15 sequentially displays the stop symbol pattern of the special symbol until the saved undigested number F = the undigested number P. That is, the special symbol display device 15 controls the operation of each LED of the special symbol display device 15 such that the special symbol loss stop symbol mode x is sequentially displayed successively. Further, in the effect display process, until the saved undigested number F = undigested number P, every time the stop symbol pattern is read, the losing effect stop symbol pattern y of the special effect symbol is continuously displayed, and each losing effect is displayed. The operation of the image display 14 is controlled so that the stop symbol form y is displayed side by side on the display screen of the image display 14. For example, as shown in FIGS. 12 (A) to 12 (C), when three undigested start memories are digested in succession, the special symbol display device 15 shows the loss stop symbol form x of each start memory. The LED lighting mode is repeatedly displayed three times in succession, and the image display 14 continuously displays three special effect symbols that are out of effect.

  In this way, when the special start memory is collectively digested, the special digest display device 15 continuously displays the special symbol loss stop symbol form x by the special symbol display device 15 and the image display 14 performs a special effect. The player is notified by two types of display modes of displaying the design loss effect design pattern y continuously. Thus, since the player can surely and easily know that the collective digestion for determining the special start memory in succession is executed in a relatively short time, the player for the game to digest the special start memory collectively. The reliability of the can be kept appropriate.

  Even in the configuration of the second embodiment, as in the first embodiment, the special start memory can be stored up to the increased limit number in the execution state of the special game operation, so that waste balls can be generated. It can be suppressed as much as possible, and the interest of the game can be improved by paying attention to the winning at the starting port 21. Furthermore, since the special start memory that has not been digested is digested in a lump after the special game operation has expired, the time required for the digestion can be shortened as much as possible. You can reduce the disadvantage of the amusement hall.

  In the configuration of the second embodiment, a mode in which a series of effects in which the special symbol display device 15 is continuously displayed on the special symbol display device 15 by the collective digestion effect process is executed, and the image display unit 14 has a special effect. The continuous digestion effect aspect concerning this invention is comprised by the aspect which performs the series of effects which display the loss effect stop pattern aspect y of an effect symbol continuously.

  In the second embodiment, as in the first embodiment described above, the number of undigested up to the limit number of 4 is displayed by the number of lighting of the LED of the special start memory number display device 17a, and the number of undigested up to 100 is displayed. Is displayed by the number of lighting of the special start memory number display device 17b. Further, as in the first embodiment, the number of start memories that have been digested at once is notified by continuously turning off the special start memory number display device 17b. That is, as in the first embodiment, the continuous digestion effect mode of the present invention is also configured by continuously turning off the special start memory number display device 17b. Thus, since the structure of Example 2 is the same structure as Example 1 except the collective digestion process and collective digestion effect process mentioned above, the same code | symbol is described to the same component and the description is abbreviate | omitted. .

  On the other hand, in the first and second embodiments described above, the unstored number of the start memory is displayed by the special start memory number display devices 17a and 17b. A configuration may be adopted in which the number of undigested starting memories is displayed only by the memory number display device 17b. Moreover, as a special start memory display device, it is good also as a thing of the structure which displays the numerical value which shows an undigested number other than the structure which alert | reports the undigested number of start memory by the number of lighting. Moreover, it is good also as a structure which displays the unsettled number exceeding the limit number with the special start memory | storage number display apparatus which displays the number of undigested to a limit number by the lighting number of LED, and an image display. In this case, for example, the number of undigested numbers displayed on the image display is displayed and a numerical design is displayed. A continuous digestion production mode can be executed.

  Further, in the first and second embodiments described above, a series of continuous digestion production modes are performed so that the number of undigested start-up memory that is reduced by batch digestion is turned off for each special start-up memory number display device 17b continuously. Although it is the structure performed, as another structure, you may make it perform a series of continuous digestion production | generation aspects by performing a predetermined number of light extinctions continuously.

  In the second embodiment described above, the special symbol display device 15 and the image display 14 perform effects by the loss stop pattern mode x and the loss effect stop pattern mode y indicating collective digestion, and in the same manner as in the first embodiment. The special start memory number display device 17b is configured to execute an effect of continuously reducing and displaying the number of unstarted special start memories, but as another example, the lost stop pattern mode x and the lost effect that indicate collective digestion. It is good also as a structure which only performs the production | presentation by the stop symbol aspect y. As another example of the second embodiment, only one of the continuous display of the loss stop pattern aspect x by the special symbol display device 15 and the continuous display of the loss effect stop pattern aspect y by the image display 14 is performed. It is good also as a structure which performs a continuous digestion production aspect. Furthermore, in the second embodiment, all the special start memory lose stop symbol patterns x (and the loss effect stop symbol pattern y) to be digested all at once are continuously displayed. The special stop memory loss stop symbol aspect x (and loss effect stop symbol aspect y) may be continuously displayed. Further, the loss stop symbol aspect x (and the loss effect stop symbol aspect y) may be continuously displayed every predetermined number.

  Further, in the configuration of the first and second embodiments described above, the special start memory is digested to the limit number. However, the special symbol start memory may be digested all at once until there is no undigested number. good. In addition, the number of batch digestion and the lower limit number of batch digestion can be set as appropriate.

  In the first and second embodiments, the limit number of special start memories in the non-execution state of the special game operation is four, but this limit number can be changed as appropriate. The increase limit number can also be set as appropriate. Moreover, it is good also as a structure which can generate | occur | produce and memorize | store unlimited special start memories in the execution state of special game operation | movement.

  Further, in the configurations of the above-described first and second embodiments, the special electric accessory 26 having the big prize opening 25 is provided below the ordinary electric accessory 20 having the starting port 21. As another configuration, the start opening and the big winning opening may be arranged at both left and right positions. For example, an ordinary electric accessory having a start opening is disposed at the left position, and a special electric accessory having a big prize opening is disposed at the right position. In the present invention, since the special start memory is increased by winning the start opening in the execution state of the special game operation, the player is requested to distinguish between the big winning opening and the start opening even in the execution state of the special game operation. Since the game can be expanded and the game can be expanded, the fun of the game can be further improved.
