The notification rotation detection sensor 214 capable of detecting the notification rotation detection piece 213 is provided on the front surface of the notification accessory base 181 (the front surface of the decorative base plate 154 facing the main body base 193). . When the notifying agent unit 87 rotates the notifying agent main body 182 to convert it to the first notifying posture, the notifying rotation detecting sensor 214 detects the notifying rotation detecting piece 213 and notifies the notifying agent main body 182. It is comprised so that it can detect that has converted into the 1st information attitude.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 29, the notification accessory unit 87 includes a notification light emitting board 194 built in the notification accessory main body 182 and a notification relay fixed to the lower back side of the notification accessory bracket 90. The board 215 is connected to a notification electric wiring 216 such as a flexible flat cable, and power and signals can be supplied to the notification light emitting board 194 (winning notification section 183, notification effect light emitting section 184) through the notification electric wiring 216. In addition, a wiring insertion opening 217 for pulling out the notification electrical wiring 216 to the rear of the notification accessory main body 182 is opened at a position outside the rotation bearing 187 in the main body base 193 of the notification accessory main body 182; A cylindrical wiring support portion 218 protrudes from the opening edge of the wiring insertion opening 217 toward the rear reporting agent base 181 side, and the wiring support portion 218 and the notification electrical wiring 216 are inserted into the notification base plate 186. When the base-side opening 219 is opened in an arc shape centered on the rotation bearing 187 and the notification accessory body 182 rotates, the end of the notification electrical wiring 216 (the end located on the notification accessory body 182 side) ) Is movable in the base side opening 219 while being supported by the wiring support portion 218.

  Further, a notification wiring storage space 220 for storing (inserting) the notification electrical wiring 216 is provided outside the rotation bearing 187, specifically, between the rotation bearing 187 and the notification rotation motor 190 (FIG. 29 ( a)), an intermediate portion of the notification electrical wiring 216 is stored loosely in the notification wiring storage space 220, and the notification electrical wiring 216 is connected to the notification wiring storage space as the notification accessory main body 182 rotates. 220 can be taken in and out. Specifically, in the first notification posture, as shown in FIG. 29 (b), the wiring insertion opening 217 and the wiring support portion 218 are positioned above the rotating bearing 187 and the upper portion of the notification wiring storage space 220. The notification electric wiring 216 is pushed into the notification wiring storage space 220 and is loosened. On the other hand, in the second notification posture, as shown in FIG. 29 (c), the wiring insertion opening 217 and the wiring support portion 218 are placed on the stage 50 side of the rotary bearing 187 (the notification wiring is stored with the rotary bearing 187 interposed therebetween). The notification electrical wiring 216 is pulled out from the notification wiring storage space 220 and wound around the upper part of the rotary bearing 187. The notification wiring storage space 220 is positioned away from the notification wiring storage space 220.

  Further, the notification electrical wiring 216 is disengaged rearward from the notification wiring storage space 220 on the opposite side (the rear side of the notification wiring storage space 220) from the notification accessory base 181 across the notification wiring storage space 220. A flat wiring stopper 221 is provided to prevent this, and the edge (the edge along the direction in which the notification electric wiring 216 extends) of the wiring stopper 221 located on the rotating bearing 187 side is fitted to the reinforcing rib 188. A fitting recess 222 is formed. Thereby, even if the notification electrical wiring 216 moves with the rotation of the notification accessory main body 182, it is possible to prevent the notification electrical wiring 216 from coming off the notification wiring storage space 220 by the wiring stopper 221. Moreover, the clearance gap between the rotation bearing 187 and the wiring stopper 221 can be bent, and the notification electrical wiring 216 can be made difficult to come out from this clearance.

Next, a game control device 225 that controls the progress of the game of the pachinko gaming machine 1 and a control system centered on the game control device 225 will be described.
As shown in FIG. 30, the game control device 225 includes a CPU that controls game control, a ROM that stores a control program for game control, etc., a RAM that is used as a work area during game control, and an input unit (input). Interface), an output unit (output interface), and the like. Various detection devices (magnetic sensor switch 226, vibration sensor switch 227, first start port switch 228, second start port switch 229, gate switch 230, winning port switch 231, count switch 232, front frame opening detection switch 233, In response to detection signals from the holding frame release detection switch 234, the power supply device 235, etc., various processes such as a special game state (big hit state), notification to the player, power failure response processing, and the like are performed. Furthermore, in addition to the effect control device 240 and the payout control device 241, a large winning opening solenoid 242 for opening and closing the large winning opening 35, a general electric solenoid 243 for opening and closing the ordinary electric accessory 32a, a collective display device 39, an external A command signal is transmitted to the information terminal 244 and the like, and the game is comprehensively controlled.

  As shown in FIG. 31, the effect control device 240 is used as a CPU for effect control, a PROM storing a control program for effect control, an image ROM storing image data, etc., and a work area during effect control. It consists of a VRAM, an input interface, an output interface, and the like. And a signal generated as the game progresses in the pachinko gaming machine 1, specifically, a control signal from the game control device 225, a signal from a switch provided on the game effect button 18, and each effect item Based on a signal from a sensor provided in the device 44, the effect operation of each effect accessory device (control target unit) 44 is controlled. Specifically, the display on the display unit 27a of the variable display device 27, the sound effect output from the upper speaker 21 and the lower speaker 15, the accessory light emitting unit 54 provided on the game board 5, the first elevating light emitting substrate 113a, the second Light emission of the panel decoration device 245 including the elevating light emitting substrate 143a, the decoration light emitting substrate 170, the notification light emitting substrate 194, etc., the light emission of the frame decoration device 246 such as an LED provided on the transparent member holding frame 8, and the game board 5 A motor (such as a raising / lowering rotation motor 118, a decoration rotation motor 156, a notification rotation motor 190, etc.) that drives the effect accessory device 44 or an effect member (not shown) provided on the transparent member holding frame 8 is driven. The driving of the frame effect device 248 such as a motor is controlled.

  Next, in the operation of the gaming board 5 (pachinko gaming machine 1) having the above-described configuration, in particular, the game control device 225 and the effect control device 240 in the behavior of the game ball on the stage unit 50 or the special figure variation display game. The control to be performed will be described. Note that the game control device 225 does not play a variable display game (special map variable display game, general map variable display game) in advance and does not advance a game in a state where a special game state is not generated (normal game state). Assume that you are in control. In addition, the first accessory main body 106 and the second accessory main body 137 of the production accessory unit 85 are located at the top dead center, the decorative accessory unit 86 is set to the stage decoration state, and the notification accessory unit 87 is It is assumed that the first notification posture is set (see FIG. 2).

  When a game ball fired from a launcher (not shown) jumps into the game area 25 and flows down and wins (passes) to the usual start gate 28, the game control device 225 executes a usual figure change display game. Then, a different control signal is transmitted to the collective display device 39 in accordance with the result form of the general-purpose variable display game, and control for displaying normal symbols indicating the result form on the collective display device 39 is performed. Then, when the result mode of the normal variation display game is in a state of “winning”, the ordinary electric accessory 32a of the second start port 32 is opened, and the game ball wins the second start port 32. When the state is converted to an easy state and the state of “displacement” is indicated, the ordinary electric accessory 32a is kept closed. Further, when the game ball wins the normal figure start gate 28 during the execution of the general fluctuation display game, the game control device 225 sets a preset memory upper limit for the execution of the normal fluctuation display game based on the winning. A number (for example, four) is memorized and held, and after the execution of the normal fluctuation display game being executed, the usual fluctuation display game for the hold is sequentially executed.

  When a game ball flowing down the game area 25 flows into the inlet 51 a of the ball introduction path 51, the game ball flows down the ball introduction path 51 and passes through the introduction connection path 64 from the outlet 51 b of the ball introduction path 51. The first stage 61 is discharged, and the first rolling surface 61a of the first stage 61 rolls toward the central portion in the left-right direction. Then, when reaching the first discharge part 66 on either the left or right side in a state where the momentum of rolling on the first rolling surface 61a is weakened, the first discharge part 66 rolls forward to move from the first stage 61. It falls to the second rolling surface 62 a of the second stage 62 and reaches the second discharge part 70. Furthermore, the second discharge part 70 rolls forward, and easily flows down to a place out of the start winning area 33 in the game area 25. Therefore, it is difficult for the game balls guided by the first release unit 66 and the second release unit 70 to win the start winning area 33.

  Further, when the game ball reaches the front side of the game board 5 in the central portion in the left-right direction of the first stage 61 in a state where the momentum of rolling on the first rolling surface 61a is weakened, Then, after passing through the central portion of the first stage 61, it starts rolling in the left-right direction again. However, when the game ball reaches the rear side of the game board 5 in the central portion in the left-right direction of the first stage 61 in a state where the momentum of rolling on the first rolling surface 61a is weakened, the game ball Passes through the guiding communication opening 78 and flows down the winning guiding path 73 (the drop guiding portion 74, the flow guiding portion 75, the rolling guiding portion 76), and is discharged from the rolling guiding portion 76 to the front of the surrounding frame body 26. Then, it falls directly above the start winning area 33. Therefore, the game ball that has flowed down to the winning guiding path 73 through the guiding communication opening 78 is easy to win in the start winning area 33. As a result, the ease of winning the game ball in the start winning area 33 can be varied depending on whether or not the first rolling surface 61a rolls behind the game board 5.

  On the other hand, when the game ball is bounced from the lower side of the surrounding frame body 26 and enters the stage unit 50, the game ball moves in the lateral direction (front-rear direction or forward direction) on the second rolling surface 62 a of the second stage 62. Roll to the left and right). Then, when reaching the second release part 70 on either the left or right side in a state where the momentum of rolling on the second rolling surface 62a is weakened, the second release part 70 rolls forward to move out of the game area 25. It is easy to flow down to a place outside the start winning area 33. Therefore, it is difficult for the game ball guided to the second release unit 70 to win the start winning area 33. Further, when the game ball reaches the rolling guide portion 76 in a state where the momentum of the game ball rolling on the second rolling surface 62a becomes weak, the game ball moves along the rolling guide portion 76 to the stage unit 50 (second It flows down to the front of the stage 62) and falls directly above the start winning area 33. Therefore, the game ball rolling on the second stage 62 has a chance to win the start winning area 33.

  The decorative accessory body 152 in the stage decoration state is located behind the stage 50 capable of rolling the game ball in this manner, and the light emitter (decorative accessory) in the decorative accessory main body 152 is located. If the light emitting body of the lamp 159 is emitted, light from the light emitting body can be irradiated onto the stage unit 50 to perform light emission decoration. Therefore, the component that performs the rendering operation around the stage unit 50 can also function as a light emitting unit that irradiates the stage unit 50 with light. Thereby, it is not necessary to secure the space for arranging the light emitting means of the stage unit 50 separately from the space for arranging the component for performing the rendering operation (decorative accessory unit 86), and in the limited pachinko gaming machine 1 It is possible to enhance the fun of the game while effectively utilizing the space.

  Furthermore, since the left and right sides of the first stage 61 are arranged in front of the game board 5 with respect to the central portion, the first rolling surface 61a is curved in the front-rear direction of the game board 5, so the first rolling surface The rolling distance of the game ball can be increased as compared with the case where the 61a is linearly extended, and the rolling force of the game ball can be sufficiently attenuated on the stage unit 50 (on the first stage 61). it can. Thereby, the behavior of the game ball on the stage unit 50 can be easily shown to the player. Further, as shown in FIGS. 6A and 6B, since the light emitting decoration portion 175 is arranged behind the left and right side portions of the first stage 61, it is formed because the first rolling surface 61a is curved. This space can be used effectively as a place where the light emitting decoration portion 175 is disposed. Further, since the notifying agent unit 87 is arranged on the side of the stage unit 50, a synergistic effect between the behavior of the game ball rolling on the stage unit 50 and the rendering operation performed by the notifying agent unit 87. Can be expected and can improve the interest of the game.

  Further, when the game ball wins the first start port 31 and is detected by the first start port switch 228, the game control device 225 receives the first start port 31 as a trigger (start condition). When the figure change display game is executed, the game is entered into the second start port 32 and detected by the second start port switch 229, the game control device 225 is triggered by the win (start condition) at the second start port 32. The second special figure variation display game is executed. More specifically, the game control device 225 functions as a random number extraction unit, and each time the start condition of each special figure variation display game is satisfied (that is, the game ball is moved to the first start port 31 or the second start port 32). Each time a prize is won, a game random number related to the progress of the game, more specifically, a game random number used to determine the result mode of the special figure variation display game is extracted. Further, the extracted game random number is compared with a predetermined game result determination condition, and the result mode of each special figure variable display game is set to “out”, “N (normal) reach out”, “SP ( (Special) 1 reach out, “SP (special) 2 reach out”, “SP (special) 3 reach out”, or “big hit”, and a different control signal depending on the determined result It transmits to the collective display device 39 and the effect control device 240. As a result, the collective display device 39 displays a special symbol indicating the result mode, and the effect control device 240 displays an effect display corresponding to the result mode (specifically, an effect of stopping and displaying a plurality of identification symbols after variably displaying them) Display) is executed by the variable display device 27. Then, when the result mode of each special figure variation display game is “big hit”, the game control device 225 generates a special game state for a preset period and opens the big prize opening 35, When the game ball is converted to a state where it is easy to win the big winning opening 35, when it is “out of”, “N reach out”, “SP1 reach out”, “SP2 reach out”, “SP3 reach out” The prize winning opening 35 is kept closed, and the winning of the game ball to the prize winning opening 35 is regulated.

  In addition, the production control device 240 functions as production agent control means, and controls the execution of the production operation by driving the production accessory device 44 based on the progress of the special figure variation display game. For example, when the result mode of each special figure variation display game is “SP1 reach out”, “SP2 reach out”, “SP3 reach out”, or “big hit”, the first actor in the production actor unit 85 The raising / lowering operation of the main body 106 and the second accessory main body 137, the operation of rotating the decorative accessory main body 152 of the decorative accessory unit 86 to convert from the stage decoration state to the display device decoration state, and the notification accessory unit 87. An effect operation is performed by appropriately combining operations for rotating the notification accessory body 182 and converting the first notification posture to the second notification posture. Then, after the production operation is completed, the first and second actor main bodies 106 and 137 of the production accessory unit 85 are returned to the top dead center, and the ornamental accessory main body 152 of the ornamental accessory unit 86 is moved. Returning to the stage decoration state, the notification accessory body 182 of the notification accessory unit 87 is returned to the first notification posture.

  Furthermore, when the game ball wins the start winning area 33 (the first start port 31 or the second start port 32) during the occurrence of the special game state or during the execution of each special figure variation display game, the game control device 225. Is a game random number extracted by winning a game ball in the start winning area 33, in other words, execution of the first special figure variation display game based on this win (functioning as a start winning storage means (holding storage means)) The result mode display) or the execution of the second special figure variation display game (result mode display) is stored as a start memory and stored up to a preset maximum number of memories (for example, 4 each), and this number of holds ( The start memory number) is displayed on the batch display device 39. And after completion | finish of the special figure fluctuation | variation display game in execution, the execution of the special figure fluctuation | variation display game for a holding | maintenance (display of a result aspect) is performed sequentially.

  When there is a start memory for the second special figure variable display game, the production control device 240 receives a command signal from the game control device 225 and controls the winning notification unit 183 of the notification accessory unit 87, When the winning notification section 183 is turned on, the start memory number of the second special figure variation display game (in other words, the number of game random numbers stored in the game control device 225 as the start winning memory means) is notified. Further, when there is a start memory for the first special figure variable display game or a start memory for the second special figure variable display game, the effect control device 240 functions as a prior notification means and a command signal from the game control device 225 is provided. Is received, the effect accessory device 44 is controlled, and the operation of the effect accessory device 44 displays the result of the pending special figure fluctuation display game to be in the special figure fluctuation display. A pre-reading effect (preliminary notification) for performing a preliminary announcement (preliminary notification) is executed before the game is executed.

  The execution of the pre-reading effect will be described. First, when the execution of the special figure fluctuation display game is suspended, the game control device 225 uses the game random number extracted when the start condition of the reserved special figure fluctuation display game is established. Correspondingly, game information (prefetch effect command) is set. Specifically, the game information is set with the result form of the special figure fluctuation display game determined by the extracted game random number (the result aspect of the special figure fluctuation display game for the reserve) as the information content. Then, it functions as a start winning storage means, stores game information together with the start memory (game random number) of the special figure variable display game up to the storage upper limit number, and transmits the stored game information to the effect control device 240.

  The presentation control device 240 that has received the game information determines the progress (planned progress) of the variable display game from the content of the game information, and in other words, the result of the special figure variable display game determined by the content of the game information, in other words, the game random number. When it is determined that the aspect is “SP3 reach out” or “big hit”, control is performed to perform the effect operation (pre-read effect operation) of the effect accessory device 44 by functioning as the effect agent control means. In the pre-reading effect operation, first, if the notifying agent main body 182 of the notifying agent unit 87 is rotated to convert from the first notifying posture to the second notifying posture and then converted to the second notifying posture, this posture is used. Based on the conversion, the notification effect light emitting unit 184 emits light. Specifically, the notification effect light emitting unit 184 that is vertically oriented is gradually extended from the lower side where the lighting location is the winning notification unit 183 side to the upper side where the accessory light emitting unit 54 side (in FIG. 32). In such a mode, the light is emitted along the white arrow L1 shown below. When the posture change of the notification accessory main body 182 and the entire light emission of the notification effect light emitting portion 184 are executed, the role change of the notification accessory main body portion 182 and the light emission of the notification effect light emission portion 184 are triggered. A mode in which the lighting portion of the object light-emitting portion 54 gradually extends from the lower side, which is the notification accessory main body portion 182 side, to the upper side, which is the upper effect light-emitting portion 104 side (the white arrow L2 shown at the upper side in FIG. The light is emitted in such a manner as to extend along the surface. Further, if the entire accessory light emitting unit 54 emits light, the lighting portion of the upper effect light emitting unit 104 of the effect accessory unit 85 is turned from the accessory light emitting unit 54 side to the first lift lamp 113 side (left side in FIG. 32). It emits light in such a manner that it gradually grows.

  If all of the notification effect light emitting unit 184, the accessory effect light emitting unit 54, and the upper effect light emitting unit 104 emit light, the first elevating lamp 113 and the second elevating lamp 143 emit light, and the first elevating lamp 113 is maintained while maintaining the light emitting state. The accessory body part 106 and the second accessory body part 137 are moved to the bottom dead center, and the first raising / lowering lamp 113 and the second raising / lowering lamp 143 are positioned at the central portion of the display part 27a of the variable display device 27 (see FIG. 33). Further, the ornamental accessory main body 152 of the ornamental accessory unit 86 is converted into the display device decoration state, and the front end (upper end) of the ornamental accessory main body 152 is positioned on both the left and right sides of the first elevating lamp 113 ( 34), in addition to the decorative accessory lamp 159 of the decorative accessory main body 152, the upper decorative lamp 103 of the rendering accessory unit 85, the frame side decorative lamp 56 of the decorative frame portion 41, and the decorative accessory unit 86. The light emitting decoration unit 175 and the like emit light. And if these light emission is maintained over the light emission setting time set beforehand, the effect light emission part which light-emitted in the pre-reading effect operation, specifically, the decoration accessory main-body part 152, the upper decoration lamp 103, the frame side The unit decoration lamp 56, the light emitting decoration unit 175, the accessory light emitting unit 54, the notification effect light emitting unit 184, the first elevating lamp 113, the second elevating lamp 143, etc. are stopped and turned off. Further, the decorative accessory body 152 is returned to the stage decoration state, the first accessory body 106 and the second accessory body 137 are moved to the top dead center, and the notification accessory body 182 is rotated to change the first accessory body body 182. 2 Return from the notification posture to the first notification posture, and finish the prefetch effect operation.

  In the pachinko gaming machine 1 that performs the pre-reading effect operation in this way, the winning notification unit 183 is provided on the notifying agent main body 182 that can be rotated to change the posture in the effect agent unit 85, and the effect control is performed. The effect of the effect accessory unit 85 and the decoration accessory unit 86 in response to the progress of the change display game (special view change display game) and the state of the notification accessory unit 87 (converted to the second notification posture). Since the control for performing the operation is performed, the component for informing the number of winnings in the start winning area 33 also functions as an effect member, and the effect operation is performed together with the effect accessory unit 85 and the decoration accessory unit 86 provided separately. Can be executed. Therefore, it is possible to execute an unprecedented effect by using the means for notifying the number of winnings in the start winning area 33, and to enhance the interest of the game. Further, the effect control device 240 controls the light emission of the accessory light emitting unit 54 when the notification effect light emitting unit 184 emits light at the same time as the notification object main body 182 is changed to the second notification posture. Therefore, a more innovative effect is executed by combining the light emission in the notification effect light emitting unit 184 and the accessory light emitting unit 54 with the effect operations of the notification accessory unit 87, the effect accessory unit 85, and the decorative accessory unit 86. can do.

  Next, control for realizing the above-described pre-reading effect operation will be described based on a flowchart. First, in the main process executed in the game control device 225 when the power is turned on to the pachinko gaming machine 1, as shown in FIGS. 35 and 36, a timer that is executed at a predetermined time period (for example, 1 millisecond period). Processing for prohibiting interrupts (S1), interrupt vector setting processing for setting a jump destination vector address to be executed when an interrupt occurs (S2), stack pointer of an area for saving a register value or the like when an interrupt occurs A stack pointer setting process (S3) for setting, and an interrupt mode setting process (S4) for setting an interrupt processing mode are performed. Thereafter, a waiting (for example, waiting for 4 ms) is performed to wait for the normal start of the program of the payout control device 241 (S5), and access to a readable / writable RWM (read / write memory) such as RAM or EEPROM is permitted ( In step S6, all ports of the output unit are set to off (state in which there is no output) (step S7), and processing for setting the serial port not to be used is performed (step S8).

  Further, it is determined whether or not the initialization switch provided in the power supply device 235 is ON (S9). If it is determined that the initialization switch is not ON, the data of the power failure inspection area in the RAM is stored. It is checked (S10) and it is determined whether or not the power is turned on when the power failure is restored (S11). If it is determined that the power is turned on when the power failure is restored, it is checked whether the checksum is normal in order to determine whether the data stored in the RAM is corrupted (S12, S13). Specifically, it is determined whether or not the checksum of the data stored in the RAM when a power failure occurs matches the checksum of the data currently stored in the RAM. When it is determined that the checksum is normal, that is, when it is determined that the data stored in the RAM is normal, the power failure recovery process is executed, and the region to be initialized The initial value is saved (S14), and the area related to error and fraud monitoring is reset (S15). In addition, the game state is stored in the RAM and the game state is in a high probability state (specifically, the probability that the result mode of the special figure variation display game is a big hit is set higher than in normal game progress) ) Is determined (S16), and if it is determined that the state is a high probability state, ON information is saved in the high probability notification flag area (S17), and the high probability provided in the collective display device 39 is determined. The ON data for turning on the notification LED is set in the segment area (S18). If it is determined in step S16 that the high-probability state is not set, or if preparation is made to turn on the high-probability notification LED in step S18, the special-purpose game process described later is prepared for rational execution. The command at the time of power failure restoration corresponding to the processed number is transmitted to the effect control device 240 (S19).

  On the other hand, if it is determined in step S9 that the initialization switch is ON, or if it is determined in step S11 that the power is not turned on when the power failure is restored, or if the checksum is abnormal in step S13. If so, the work area in the RAM used by the CPU is reset (S20), the initial value at the time of power-on is saved in the area to be initialized (S21), and the command at the time of power-on is given to the effect control device 240. (S22).

  And after transmitting the command at the time of power failure recovery to effect control device 240 in Step S19, or after transmitting the command at the time of power-on to effect control device 240 in Step S22, a timer interruption signal and a random number update trigger signal A CTC (Counter / Timer Circuit) circuit that generates (CTC) is activated (S23), and a random number generation circuit is activated (S24). Furthermore, the value of the soft random number register in the random number generation circuit at the time of power-on is set to various initial value random numbers (an initial value of a random number for determining a jackpot symbol in a special figure variation display game, or a winning symbol in a normal figure variation display game) (Random initial value) is saved in RAM (S25), interrupts prohibited in step S1 are permitted (S26), and various initial value random number values are updated to break the regularity of random numbers. Processing is performed (S27).

  If the initial value random number update process is executed in step S27, the power failure monitoring signal input from the power supply device 235 is checked to determine whether or not a power failure has occurred (S28), and no power failure has occurred. If it is determined, the process returns to step S27, and the initial value random number update process (S27) and the power failure monitoring signal check (S28) are repeated. On the other hand, if it is determined in step S28 that a power failure has occurred, the process temporarily disables the interrupt permitted in step S26 (S29), and all output ports are set to off (no output). (S30) is performed. Further, after performing the process of saving the power failure recovery inspection area check data in the power failure recovery inspection area (S31) and the process of calculating the RAM checksum when the power is shut off (S32), the checksum is saved (S33), After performing the process of prohibiting access to the RAM (S34), the process waits until the power of the pachinko gaming machine 1 is shut off.

  In addition, the game control device 225 executes the timer interrupt process every predetermined time period when the timer interrupt is permitted in the main process. The timer interrupt process will be described with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG. 37. First, a value stored in a predetermined register is transferred to the RAM to perform a register saving process (S41), and various sensors (first start-up switch) 228, second start port switch 229, gate switch 230, and the like) input processing (S42), solenoids based on output data set in various processing (large winning port solenoid 242 and general electric solenoid 243) An output process (S43) for driving and controlling the actuator is performed.

  Next, command transmission processing (S44), random number update processing 1 (S45), and random number update processing 2 (S46) for outputting commands set in the transmission buffer in various processes to the effect control device 240, the payout control device 241 and the like. Do. Thereafter, it is monitored whether or not a normal signal is input from a game ball detection sensor such as the first start port switch 228, the second start port switch 229, and the winning port switch 231, and the front frame 3 or the transparent member holding frame. A prize opening switch / error monitoring process (S47) for monitoring errors such as whether 8 is open is performed. Also, a special figure game process (S48) for performing a process related to the special figure variation display game and a general figure game process (S49) for performing a process related to the common figure variation display game are performed.

  When the process of each variable display game is executed, the segment LED editing process (S50) for editing the display contents of each variable display game and the display contents of various information regarding the game on the collective display device 39, the magnetic sensor switch 226, and the vibration sensor A magnetic error monitoring process (S51) for checking the detection signal from the switch 227 to determine whether there is an abnormality, and an external information editing process (S52) for setting signals to be output to various external devices in the output buffer are performed. Then, the interrupt request is cleared and the end of the interrupt is declared (S53), the register data saved in step S41 is restored (S54), the interrupt is permitted (S55), and the timer interrupt process is terminated.

  In the special figure game process (S48) performed in the timer interruption process, the input signals from the first start port switch 228 and the second start port switch 229 are monitored, the entire process related to the special figure variation display game is controlled, and the special symbol. Set the display of. Specifically, based on the flowchart shown in FIG. 38, first, detection of game balls of the first start port switch 228 and the second start port switch 229 (in other words, to the first start port 31 or the second start port 32). The start switch monitoring process (S61) for monitoring the winning prize) and the count switch for monitoring the detection of the game ball of the count switch 232 provided in the big winning opening 35 (in other words, winning the winning prize 35). A monitoring process (S62) is executed. The starter switch monitoring process will be described later in detail.

  Next, the special figure game process timer is updated (-1) to check whether or not the game process timer has expired (S63, S64), and when it is determined that the special figure game process timer has expired, A process of setting a special figure game sequence branch table to be referred to for branching to the process corresponding to the special figure game process number is executed (S65), and the branch destination of the process corresponding to the special figure game process number is executed using the table An address is acquired (S66). Then, after performing the process of saving the return address after the branch process to the stack area (S67), the game branch process is performed according to the game process number (S68).

  Specifically, when the game process number is “0”, the change start of the special figure change display game is monitored, the change start setting of the special figure change display game, the setting of the effect, and the special figure change process A special figure normal process (S69) for setting information necessary for performing the game is performed. When the game process number is “1”, the special figure stop display time setting and the special figure display process are performed. A special figure changing process (S70) for setting information necessary for the execution is performed. When the game process number is “2”, if the game result of the special figure variation display game is a big hit, the fanfare command is set according to the type of the big hit, and the big winning opening 35 is opened in each big hit state. A special chart display process (S71) is performed for setting the fanfare time according to the pattern, setting information necessary for performing the fanfare / interval process, and the like.

  Further, when the game process number is “3”, the fanfare / interval for setting the opening time of the big prize opening 35, updating the number of times of opening, setting information necessary for performing the processing during the big prize opening opening, etc. When the middle processing (S72) is performed and the game processing number is “4”, processing for setting an interval command or a jackpot end screen command, setting of information necessary for performing the winning ball remaining ball processing, etc. A special winning opening opening process (S73) is performed. When the game process number is “5”, it is necessary to set a time for discharging the remaining balls in the big winning opening 35 at the end of the jackpot state and to perform the jackpot end process. The special winning opening remaining ball process (S74) for setting information and the like is performed. When the game process number is “6”, the information necessary for performing the special figure routine process (S69) is set. A jackpot end process (S75) is performed.

  After the game branching process is executed in this way, or after it is determined in step S64 that the special figure game process timer has not expired, a table for controlling the variable display of the first special figure indicator. Is prepared (S76), and the symbol variation control process for the first special figure display is performed (S77). Further, a table for controlling the fluctuation of the second special figure display is prepared (S78), and the symbol fluctuation control process related to the second special figure display is performed (S79).

Next, the start port switch monitoring process (S61) executed during the special figure game process will be described based on the flowchart shown in FIG.
In the start port switch monitoring process, first, a table for setting a start port winning effect command by the first start port 31 is prepared (S81), and a table for setting hold information by the first start port 31 is prepared (S82). ), And thereafter, special figure start port switch common processing (S83) is performed. Note that the special figure start port switch common process will be described later in detail. Next, it is determined whether or not the ordinary electric accessory 32a is in operation, that is, whether or not the ordinary electric accessory 32a is open and the game ball is likely to win the second starting port 32 (S84). , S85), when it is determined that the ordinary electric accessory 32a is not in operation, it is determined whether or not the number of fraudulent winnings to the second starting port 32 is equal to or greater than the number of fraud determination (S86, S87). .

  If it is determined in step S87 that the number of illegal winnings is not equal to or greater than the number of fraud determinations, or if it is determined in step S85 that the ordinary electric accessory 32a is in operation, the starting port winning by the second starting port 32 is determined. A table for setting a production command is prepared (S88), a table for setting information on hold by the second start port 32 is prepared (S89), and thereafter, a special chart start port switch common process (S90) is performed to start The mouth switch monitoring process is terminated. On the other hand, if it is determined in step S87 that the number of fraudulent winnings is equal to or greater than the number of fraud determinations, the start port monitoring process is terminated without executing steps S88 to S90, and the second starting port 32 is awarded. Do not prepare for the production based on.

Next, the special start port switch common process (S83, S90) executed during the start port switch monitoring process will be described with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG.
In the special figure starting port switch common processing, first, it is checked whether or not there is an input to the monitoring target starting port switch among the first starting port switch 228 and the second starting port switch 229 (S91, S92). If there is no input to the target start port switch, the special-purpose start port switch common process is terminated. On the other hand, if there is an input, the start port winning flag of the start port switch to be monitored is saved (S93), and a jackpot random number as a game random number is loaded (extracted) (S94). In addition, the number of times (starting port signal output frequency) that information related to the number of winnings to the monitored starting port switch is output to a management device (not shown) provided outside the pachinko gaming machine 1 is loaded. (S95) The loaded value is updated (+1) to check whether or not the output count overflows (S96, S97). If the number of outputs does not overflow as a result of this check, the updated value is saved in the start port signal output count area of the RAM of the game control device 225 (S98). Then, after saving the updated value in the start port signal output count area, or when the output count overflows in step S97, the update target special figure pending corresponding to the monitored start port switch (start memory) ) It is checked whether the number is less than the upper limit value (S99, S100). As a result of this check, if the special figure hold number is equal to or greater than the upper limit value, it is checked whether or not the input according to steps S91 and S92 is the input of the first start port switch 228 (S101 and S102). When the input is one start port switch 228, a special figure reservation number command (overflow command) is prepared (S103), command setting processing (S104) is performed, and the special drawing start port switch common process is terminated. . Also, when it is determined in step S102 that the input is not the first start port switch 228, the special figure start port switch common process is terminated.

  Further, as a result of the check in step S100, if the number of special figure reservations is less than the upper limit value, the processing for updating (+1) the number of special figure reservations to be updated (S105) is performed, and then the number of special figure reservations is set. The address of the corresponding random number save area is calculated (S106). Then, a decoration special figure hold number command (MODE) of the monitoring target start port switch is prepared (S107), and the jackpot symbol random number of the monitoring target start port switch is loaded (extracted) (S108). The special figure reservation number command (ACTION) corresponding to is prepared (S109), and command setting processing is performed (S110). Further, the jackpot random number is saved in the random number saving area of the RAM (S111), and then the jackpot symbol random number is saved in the random number saving area of the RAM and saved in the register (S112). Fluctuation pattern random numbers (variation pattern random numbers 1 to 3) are extracted and stored in a random number save area of the RAM (S113 to S115). In step S112, the jackpot symbol random number corresponding to the monitored start port switch saved in the register is loaded and prepared (S116), and the special symbol hold information determination process is executed using the loaded jackpot symbol random number. Preparation for a pre-reading effect is performed (S117), and the special figure start port switch common process is terminated.

Next, the special figure hold information determination process (S117) executed during the special figure start port switch common process will be described based on the flowchart shown in FIG.
In the special figure hold information determination process, first, it is checked whether or not the input of the start opening switch according to step S92 of the special figure start opening switch common process is the input of the second start opening switch 229 (S121, S122). If the input of the second start port switch 229 is not input, it is determined whether or not the open extension function of the second start port 32 is in operation, that is, whether the second start port 32 is in support (during the short-time operation state). If it is determined that the second start port 32 is not in support (S123), it is determined whether or not it is a big hit state (special game state) (S124). And when it determines with the 2nd starting port 32 being supporting in step S123, or when it determines with it being a jackpot state in step S124, a special figure holding | maintenance information determination process is complete | finished.

  If it is determined in step S122 that the input is the second start port switch 229, or if it is determined in step S124 that it is not a big hit state, a big hit determination process is performed (S125), and a special figure start is performed. Whether or not the jackpot random value (game random number) extracted in step S94 of the mouth switch common processing is a jackpot depending on whether or not the jackpot determination value (predetermined game result determination condition) matches. To do. Further, after performing the process of setting the loss information table (S126), it is determined whether or not the determination result of the big hit determination process in S125 is a big hit (S127). Table 1 is prepared (S128).

  Next, it is checked whether or not the input of the start port switch according to step S92 of the special chart start port switch common process is the input of the first start port switch 228 (S129, S130). If it is determined that it is not an input, the jackpot symbol random number check table 2 prepared in step S128 is replaced with the jackpot symbol random number check table 2 (S131). Then, after determining that the input is the first start port switch 228 in step S130 or preparing the jackpot symbol random number check table 2 in step S131, processing for obtaining a winning information pointer corresponding to the jackpot symbol random number (S132) Processing for setting the address table of the jackpot information table (S133), processing for acquiring the jackpot information table corresponding to the winning information pointer (S134) are performed.

  After performing the processing of steps S132 to S134, or when it is determined that it is not a big hit in step S127, the stop symbol pattern is obtained from the information table (outage information table, jackpot information table) set in step S126 or step S134. The information is acquired (S135), and the stop symbol pattern information is saved in the symbol design working area of the RAM (S136). Subsequently, the start opening winning effect design command is acquired from the information table set in step S126 or step S134 (S137), and the starting opening winning effect design command is saved in the winning effect design command area of the RAM (S138).

  Next, after preparing a start port winning flag of the start port switch to be monitored (either the first start port switch 228 or the second start port switch 229) (S139), the start port to be monitored (first start) A special figure information setting process for setting special figure information set with respect to either the mouth 31 or the second start opening 32 is performed (S140). Further, among the variation modes in the special figure variation display game, the latter half variation pattern setting process (S141) for setting the latter half variation pattern and the variation pattern setting process (S142) for setting the variation mode of the special figure variation display game are performed. Then, a start opening winning effect command corresponding to the variation pattern is prepared (S143), and a command setting process (S144) is performed. Subsequently, the start opening winning effect command command is loaded and prepared from the winning effect symbol command area (S145), the command setting process (S146) is performed, and the special figure holding information determination process is terminated.

  Note that the start opening prize winning design command prepared in step S145 is the result mode of the special figure variation display game corresponding to the game random number extracted in step S94 of the special figure start opening switch common processing, in other words, execution pending A plurality of presets are set in advance corresponding to the contents of the result mode of the special figure fluctuation display game. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 42, the start opening prize winning design command 1 indicates that the special figure variation display game that is on hold is “N reach or less”, and the starting opening prize winning design command 2 , Indicating that the pending special figure fluctuation display game is “SP1 reach out”, and that the start opening prize winning design command 3 indicates that the pending special figure fluctuation display game is “SP2 reach out” The start opening prize winning design command 4 indicates that the pending special figure variation display game is “SP3 reach out”, and the starting opening prize presentation symbol command 5 indicates that the pending special figure variation display game is “big hit”. Indicates that

Next, the main process performed by the production control device 240 will be described based on the flowchart shown in FIG.
In the main process of the effect control device 240, first, an initialization process at power-on (S151) and a process of starting a timer (S152) are executed. Further, a main command analysis process (S153) is performed to determine whether or not a command related to the game transmitted from the game control device 225 has been correctly received. If the command has been correctly received, a process for determining the command is performed. If the main command analysis process is executed, a plurality of control processes related to effects accompanying the progress of the game are executed. Specifically, a game control process (S154) related to the display control of the identification symbol displayed on the variable display device 27 in parallel with the progress of the special figure variable display game and the drive control of the effect accessory device 44, the variable display device 27, a display control process (S155) for controlling an effect display or the like separate from the identification symbol, a sound control process (S156) for controlling the output from the upper speaker 21 and the lower speaker 15, and the transparent member holding frame 8 A decoration control process (S157) for controlling the operation of the provided frame decoration apparatus 246 is performed. Further, details such as an error monitoring process (S158) for monitoring the occurrence of an error (for example, opening of the front frame 3 and the transparent member holding frame 8), and the variation pattern (variation pattern) of the identification symbol in the variation display device 27 are determined. A random number update process (S159) for updating the random number is performed, and the process returns to the main command analysis process (S153).

  Here, in the game control process of step S154, the operation setting of the prefetch effect (pre-notification) in the effect accessory device 44 is executed. For example, the operation setting of the pre-reading effect is performed for the notification combination unit 87 based on the notification combination unit operation process shown in FIG. More specifically, in the notification accessory unit operation process, first, a signal transmitted from the game control device 225 is checked to display a special figure fluctuation display game (a first special figure fluctuation display game or a second special figure fluctuation display game). ) Is started (S161), and if the execution of the special figure variation display game has not started, the notification accessory unit operation process is terminated. On the other hand, if the start of the execution of the special figure variation display game is confirmed, the starting opening prize winning design command prepared in step S145 of the special figure holding information determination process is read from the game control device 225 and confirmed (S162). . Next, it is determined whether or not the start opening prize winning design command includes the starting opening prize winning design command 5 (in other words, whether or not the pending special figure variation display game is a “hit”). If it is determined (S163) and the start opening winning prize design command 5 is not included, whether or not the starting opening prize winning design command 4 is included (in other words, the special figure variation display game being held is “SP3 reach”. (S164). Then, when it is determined in step S163 that the start opening winning effect design command 5 is included, or when it is determined in step S164 that the starting opening winning effect design command 4 is included, The rotation of the notification accessory main body 182 (specifically, the drive of the notification rotation motor 190) is set (S165), and the light emission of the notification effect light emitting unit 184 is set (S166), and the notification accessory unit operation processing is ended. To do. As a result of executing such notification agent unit operation processing, as a result of the start of the special figure fluctuation display game, the result mode of the special figure fluctuation display game that is pending separately from the started special figure fluctuation display game Determine the contents of. If the result of the determination includes “big hit” or “SP3 reach miss”, a pre-reading effect for notifying “big hit” or “SP3 reach miss” is set to be executed.

  In addition, in the effect accessory unit 85 and the decoration accessory unit 86, the pre-reading effect operation is set, and when the special figure variation display game is started, it is suspended separately from the special figure variation display game to be started. The content of the result mode of the special figure fluctuation display game is determined. If the result of the determination includes “big hit” or “SP3 reach miss”, a pre-reading effect for notifying “big hit” or “SP3 reach miss” is set to be executed.

  Moreover, the production | presentation control apparatus 240 performs an interruption process for every predetermined time period, when the interruption is permitted in the main process. The interrupt process will be described with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG. 45. First, the timer update process (S171) for updating the soft timer managed by the program is performed, and the input process (S171) for processing the signal input to the effect control device 240 is performed. S172), an output process (S173) for processing a signal output from the effect control device 240 is performed. Thereafter, a main command reception process (S174) for receiving a command related to a game transmitted from the game control apparatus 225 to the effect control apparatus 240 is performed, and the interrupt process is terminated. In the output process, when it is set to perform the pre-reading effect in the effect accessory unit 85, the decoration accessory unit 86, and the notification accessory unit 87, the effect agent unit 85, the decoration accessory unit 86. An output signal is transmitted to the notification accessory unit 87 to execute a prefetch effect.
