Determine. If Yes in step 1612, that is, if the round is in the middle, the process proceeds to step 1626 without performing the processes of steps 1614 to 1622 described in detail below. On the other hand, in the case of No in step 1612, that is, when it is just before the start of the round, first, in step 1614, the special game control means 1170 stores the release pattern (temporarily stored in the special game related information temporary storage means 1194 ( For example, an open pattern that keeps opening and a pattern that opens and closes are set. Next, in step 1616, the special game executing means 1173 clears the winning ball counter in the special game related information temporary storage means 1194 to zero. Next, in step 1618, the special game executing means 1173 adds 1 to the round number counter in the special game related information temporary storage means 1194. Note that the number of rounds stored in the special game related information temporary storage unit 1194 is 0 immediately after the start of the special game (initial value), and is incremented by 1 each time a round is repeated thereafter. Next, in step 1620, the special game executing means 1173 turns on the round continuation flag in the special game related information temporary storage means 1194. In step 1622, the special game execution unit 1173 refers to the special game related information temporary storage unit 1194 and confirms which of the first grand prize winning port 2120 or the second grand prize winning port 2220 is to be opened. The first grand prize port 2120 or the second grand prize port 2220 is driven by driving the first grand prize port electric role 2122 or the second big prize port electric role 2222, and the first big prize port 2120 or the second grand prize port. 2220 is released and the process proceeds to step 1626.

  Next, in step 1626, the special game executing means 1173 refers to the special game related information temporary storage means 1194 to determine whether or not there are predetermined balls (for example, 10 balls) in the round. If Yes in step 1626, the process proceeds to step 1630. On the other hand, in the case of No in step 1626, in step 1628, the special game executing means 1173 determines whether or not a predetermined time has elapsed with reference to the round execution timer 1174a (particularly, the opening time timer). Also in the case of Yes in step 1628, the process proceeds to step 1630, and in the case of No, the process proceeds to the next process (prize ball payout process in step 5000).

  Next, in step 1630, the special game execution means 1173 drives the first big prize opening electric member 2122 or the second big prize opening electric member 2222 of the first big prize port 2120 or the second big prize port 2220. It stops and closes the 1st grand prize opening 2120 or the 2nd big prize opening 2220. In step 1632, the special game execution means 1173 resets the round execution timer 1174a. Next, in step 1634, the special game executing means 1173 turns off the round continuation flag in the special game related information temporary storage means 1194. Next, in step 1636, the special game executing means 1173 refers to the special game related information temporary storage means 1194, and the round is the final round (for example, 15 rounds for big wins, 1 round for small wins). It is determined whether or not. In the case of Yes in step 1636, in step 1638, the special game execution means 1173 turns off the special game execution flag in the special game related information temporary storage means 1194. Next, in step 1640, the information transmission means 1300 transmits a special game end signal to the effect control means 2320 side. In step 9000, the game control unit 1100 executes a game state determination process after the end of the special game, which will be described later, and proceeds to the next process (a prize ball payout process in step 5000). Even in the case of No in step 1636, the process proceeds to the next process (prize ball payout process in step 5000).

  Next, FIG. 16 is a flowchart of the game state determination processing after the special game according to the subroutine of Step 9000 in FIG. In step 9002, the specific game control unit 1180 (particularly, the specific game availability / content determination unit 1183) refers to the game-related information temporary storage unit 1190 to acquire the symbol information that has been the trigger for this time. The main game game state is determined by referring to the game specific game availability / content determination reference table 1183a, and the determined main game game state is set in the main game side game state temporary storage means 1191b. Next, in step 9004, the specific game control means 1180 (particularly, the specific game availability / content determination means 1183) sets the auxiliary game specific game availability / content determination reference table 1183b based on the set main game game state. The auxiliary game state is determined with reference to the auxiliary game side temporary storage means 1192b, and the determined auxiliary game state is set in the auxiliary game side temporary storage means 1192b, and the process proceeds to the next process (award ball payout process in step 5000).

  Next, the flow of processing on the sub-board side of the pachinko gaming machine according to the present embodiment will be described with reference to the flowcharts of FIGS. First, FIG. 17 is a main flowchart showing the flow of general processing performed by the effect control means 2320. First, in step 6400, the effect control means 2320 executes a game history update start process to be described later. Next, in step 6500, the effect control means 2320 executes a hold information management / hold display process to be described later. Next, in steps 6100 (1) and (2), the effect control unit 2320 executes first and second decorative symbol display content determination processing described later. Next, in Steps 6200 (1) and (2), the effect control means 2320 executes first and second decorative symbol display control processing described later. Next, in step 6300, the effect control means 2320 executes display control processing during special game (during big hit), which will be described later. Next, in step 6700, the effect control means 2320 executes a game history information update process described later. Next, in step 6800, the effect control means 2320 executes a game history update end process (acoustic code issuance control process) described later, and repeats the process of returning to step 6400. Hereinafter, processing related to each subroutine will be described in detail.

  First, FIG. 18 is a flowchart of the game history update start process according to the subroutine of step 6400 of FIG. First, in step 6402, the game history update control means 2322f refers to the flag area of the effect display related information temporary storage means 2322c, and determines whether or not the game history update flag is off. The game history update flag is a flag that is turned on in step 6408, which will be described later. Under the situation where this flag is turned on, the game history is sequentially updated (accumulated) as described later. In the case of Yes in step 6402, in step 6404, the game history update control means 2322f refers to the flag area of the effect display related information temporary storage means 2322c, and whether the game is currently being executed (specifically, It is determined whether or not the special gaming flag and the symbol changing flag are both off and there is no hold, for example, whether or not a demonstration is being displayed. In the case of Yes in Step 6404, in Step 6406, the game history update control unit 2322f refers to the information reception unit 2321 and determines whether or not a predetermined input operation (for example, password input) has been performed via the effect operating device 4000. . In the case of Yes in step 6406, in step 6408, the game history update control means 2322f refers to the flag area of the effect display related information temporary storage means 2322c and turns on the game history update flag {in this case, input by an input operation When the user information (user ID) is included in the password, it is desirable that the user information is derived and temporarily stored in the user specifying information temporary storage unit 2322h-1. Next, in step 6411, the input information analysis control unit 2322 h determines whether or not information related to the mission achievement status is included in the information (for example, password input) input via the effect operating device 4000. In the case of Yes in step 6411, in step 6412, the input information analysis control means 2322h determines the initial value of the mission achievement status from the information (for example, password input) input via the effect operating device 4000 (in the gaming machine server V100 described later). The content equivalent to the managed mission achievement status) is derived, and the initial value is registered in the mission achievement status registration table 2322f-1-2.

  Here, FIG. 19 (input information management table 1) is an example of the mission achievement status registration table 2322f-1-2. As shown in this example, the mission achievement status registration table 2322f-1-2 is an event that may occur as a result of the game, and if the event occurs, a privilege may be given to the player Command contents (mission contents), an identifier (mission ID) for uniquely identifying the mission contents, and a symbol (achievement status) indicating whether or not each mission contents have been achieved are registered as a pair. . The achievement status of each mission content is configured such that achievement / unachievement can be switched as an initial value in step 6412 based on a system flow of a game history information restoration service described later. Further, as will be described later, the achievement status of each mission content is updated based on the game history (game history registered in the game history registration table 2322f-1-1) accumulated while the game is in progress. It is configured.

  Returning to the description of the flowchart, next, in step 6413, the input information analysis control unit 2322h adds to the information (for example, password input) input via the effect operation device 4000, the instruction contents change instruction content ( It is determined whether or not information related to the production custom instruction content is included. In the case of Yes in step 6413, in step 6414, the input information analysis control means 2322h determines the initial value (the gaming machine server V100 to be described later) of the contents of the effect custom instruction from the information (for example, password input) input via the effect operating device 4000. And the initial value is temporarily stored in the gaming machine custom information temporary storage means 2322h-2. In step 6416, the input information reflection control unit 2322J updates the contents of the production custom content reference table 2322a-3-1 based on the contents temporarily stored in the gaming machine custom information temporary storage unit 2322h-2. At the same time, the drawing display content changing unit 2322a-7 changes the content of the production mode determination reference table 2322a-1-3 based on the content of the production custom content reference table 2322a-3-1 and performs the following processing ( The process proceeds to the hold information management / hold display control process in step 6500.

  Here, FIG. 19 (input information management table 2) is an example of the effect custom content reference table 2322a-3-1. As shown in this example, the production custom content registration table 2322a-3-1 includes the above-mentioned production custom instruction content, an identifier (custom ID) for uniquely identifying the production custom instruction content, and production custom. Symbols (setting status) indicating whether or not the instruction contents are valid are registered as a pair. Note that the contents of each effect custom instruction are configured to be enabled / disabled as an initial value in step 6416 based on the system flow of a gaming machine effect custom service described later. As described later, various effects are executed based on the switched contents.

  In addition, also in the case of No in step 6402, step 6404, or step 6406, the process proceeds to the next process (holding information management / holding display control process in step 6500). If NO in step 6411, the process proceeds to step 6413. If NO in step 6413, the process proceeds to the next process (hold information management / hold display control process in step 6500).

  Next, FIG. 20 is a flowchart of the hold information management / hold display process according to the subroutine of step 6500 in FIG. First, in step 6502, the drawing hold information display control unit 2322b refers to the main-side information temporary storage unit 2321a and determines whether or not hold information is received from the main control device 1000 side. If YES in step 6502, in step 6504, the drawing hold information display control unit 2322b adds 1 to the drawing hold counter value in the drawing hold information temporary storage unit 2322b-1. In step 6505, the drawing hold information display control means 2322b displays the same number of hold as the drawing hold counter value in the drawing hold information temporary storage means 2322b-1, and the next processing {step 6100 (1) The process proceeds to the first decorative symbol display content determination process}. On the other hand, in the case of No in step 6502, in step 6506, the drawing hold information display control unit 2322b refers to the main side information temporary storage unit 2321a and determines whether or not new symbol information has been received from the main controller 1000 side. Determine. In the case of Yes in step 6506, in step 6508, the drawing hold information display control means 2322b subtracts 1 from the drawing hold counter value in the drawing hold information temporary storage means 2322b-1. In step 6510, the effect control means 2320 turns on the symbol content determination permission flag in the effect display related information temporary storage means 2322c, and proceeds to step 6505.

  Next, FIG. 21 is a flowchart of the decorative symbol display content determination process according to the subroutine of steps 6100 (1) and (2) in FIG. Here, since step 6100 (1) related to the first decorative design and step 6100 (2) related to the second decorative design are common, both will be described together. First, in step 6102, the drawing display content determination unit 2322a-1 determines whether or not the symbol content determination permission flag in the effect display related information temporary storage unit 2322c is on. If Yes in step 6102, in step 6103, the drawing display content determination unit 2322a-1 turns off the symbol content determination permission flag in the effect display related information temporary storage unit 2322c. Next, in step 6104, the drawing display content determination means 2322a-1 is based on the symbol information of the main game symbol temporarily stored in the main side information temporary storage means 2321a, and the drawing variation content determination lottery table 2322a-1 is selected. -1 and the stop symbol determination lottery table 2322a-1-2, the decoration symbol variation mode and stop symbol are determined and temporarily stored in the effect display related information temporary storage unit 2322c. Next, in step 6105, the drawing display content determination means 2322 a-1 is based on the decoration pattern variation mode temporarily stored in the production display related information temporary storage means 2322 c, and the production mode determination reference table 2322 a-1-3. , The contents of the effect to be executed are determined and temporarily stored in the effect display related information temporary storage means 2322c.

  Here, FIG. 22 (sub game effect content determination table) is an example of the effect mode determination reference table 2322a-1-3. As shown in this example, the production mode determination reference table 2322a-1-3 is configured so that components of production can be designated (selected) when various productions are executed based on the variation of the decorative design. Yes. For example, under the selection situation as in this example, when “normal reach A” is determined as the variation pattern of the decorative symbol, an inserted image (cut-in image) that constitutes an effect (pre-reach sign effect) that suggests the occurrence of reach ) “Cut-in image NA-3 (for example, an image depicting an alien)”, and “Reach voice NA-2 (for example, reach occurrence) ) "Is determined as the production content. Here, the designation (selection) of the components of the effect is based on the contents switched in step 6416, and the image data and audio data corresponding to the designation (selection) are shown in the drawing variation mode storage unit 2322a-2. Will be read from. When the contents of this table are cleared (initialized), the image data and audio data marked with “(default)” in the table are read.

  Returning to the description of the flowchart, next, in step 6106, the drawing display content determination means 2322a-1 turns on the symbol content determination flag in the effect display related information temporary storage means 2322c, and the next process {step 6200 ( 1) First decorative symbol display control process}.

Here, since step 6200 (1) related to the first decorative design and step 6200 (2) related to the second decorative design are common, both will be described together. First, in step 6202, the decorative symbol display control unit 2322a determines whether or not the symbol changing flag in the effect display related information temporary storage unit 2322c is off. If Yes in step 6202, then in step 6204, the decorative symbol display control means 2322a determines whether or not the symbol content determination flag in the effect display related information temporary storage means 2322c is on. In the case of Yes in step 6204, in step 6206 and step 6208, the decorative symbol display control unit 2322a turns on the symbol changing flag in the effect display related information temporary storage unit 2322c and turns off the symbol content determination flag. . Next, in step 6210, the decorative symbol display control means 2322a displays the effect display device 2310 according to the determined contents (decorative pattern variation and effect contents) temporarily stored in the effect display related information temporary storage means 2322c. On the display unit 2311, the decorative symbol variation display (and the effect content display) is started.

  In step 6212, the decorative symbol display control unit 2322a refers to the main side information temporary storage unit 2121a to determine whether or not the main game symbol has stopped (in this example, the main game symbol from the main control device 1000 side). Whether or not the information transmitted at the end of the change has been received). In the case of Yes in step 6212, in step 6214, the decoration symbol display control means 2322 a follows the determined contents (decoration symbol stop symbol) temporarily stored in the effect display related information temporary storage means 2322 c. On the figure display unit 2311, the stop symbol of the decorative symbol is confirmed and displayed. In step 6216, the decorative symbol display control means 2322a turns off the symbol changing flag in the effect display related information temporary storage means 2322c, and proceeds to the next process (special game display control process in step 6300). If NO in step 6202, the process proceeds to step 6212. If NO in step 6204 and step 6212, the process proceeds to the next process (special game display control process in step 6300).

  Next, FIG. 24 is a flowchart of the special game (during big hit) display control process according to the subroutine of step 6300 in FIG. First, in step 6302, the display control means 2322 determines whether or not the special game in-progress flag in the effect display related information temporary storage means 2322c is off. In the case of Yes in step 6302, in step 6304, the display control unit 2322 refers to the main side information temporary storage unit 2321a and determines whether or not a special game start signal has been received from the main control device 1000 side. In the case of Yes in step 6304, in step 6306 and step 6308, the display control means 2322 turns on the special game flag in the effect display related information temporary storage means 2322c, and displays a big hit start display on the effect display device 2310. Do. In step 6358, the display control unit 2322 sequentially displays the number of rounds and the number of winnings on the effect display device 2310 based on the game information sequentially transmitted from the main control device 1000 side. Next, in step 6312, the display control means 2322 refers to the main side information temporary storage means 2321a and determines whether or not a special game end signal has been received from the main control apparatus 1000 side. In the case of Yes in step 6312, in step 6314, the display control unit 2322 performs a big hit end display on the effect display device 2310. In step 6316, the display control means 2322 turns off the special game in-progress flag in the effect display related information temporary storage means 2322c, and proceeds to the next process (game history information update process in step 6700). If No in step 6302, the process proceeds to step 6358. If No in steps 6304 and 6312, the process proceeds to the next process (game history information update process in step 6700).

  Next, FIG. 25 is a flowchart of the game history information update process according to the subroutine of step 6700 in FIG. First, at step 6702, the game history update control means 2322f determines whether or not the game history update flag in the effect display related information temporary storage means 2322c is on. In the case of Yes in step 6702, in step 6704, the game history update control unit 2322f refers to the main side information temporary storage unit 2321a, and based on the information from the main control device 1000 side, the main side game history update condition (for example, , At the start of symbol variation, at the start of jackpot, etc.). In the case of Yes in step 6704, in step 6706, the game history update control means 2322f accesses the game history registration table 2322f-1-1 and updates the game history related to the parameter for which the game history is to be updated.

  Here, FIG. 26 (history information management table) is an example of the game history registration table 2322f-1-1. As shown in this example (particularly, the left four columns in the upper table), the game history registration table 2322f-1-1 includes parameters that become the game history on the main side based on the game results on the main side. It is configured to be updatable. For example, in the case of “number of symbol fluctuations”, a process of incrementing the “number of symbol fluctuations” is executed in response to reception of change start (or end of change) information of the main game symbol. In addition, for example, for “hit number”, “hit symbol”, and “hit type”, when the special game start signal is received, the “hit number” is incremented and the main game start time for the special game is increased. Based on the symbol information of the game symbol, a process of additionally updating the “hit symbol” and “big hit type” is executed. Note that the parameters are merely examples, and other parameters may be provided as necessary. In addition, as shown in this example (particularly, the upper table in the lower row), the game on the main side You may comprise so that the parameter used as the game history of the main side may be provided in the form where the result was integrated.

  Returning to the description of the flowchart, next, in step 6708, the game history update control means 2322f refers to the effect display related information temporary storage means 2322c, and based on the contents of the effect execution on the effect control means 2322 side, It is determined whether or not a game history update condition (for example, at the end of performance execution) is satisfied. In the case of Yes in step 6708, in step 6710, the game history update control means 2322f accesses the game history registration table 2322f-1-1 and updates the game history related to the parameter for which the game history is to be updated.

  Here, FIG. 26 (history information management table) is an example of the game history registration table 2322f-1-1. As shown in this example (particularly, the right two columns in the upper table), the game history registration table 2322f-1-1 includes parameters that become the game history on the sub side based on the game results on the sub side. It is configured to be updatable. For example, in the case of “effect at the time of a big hit”, a process for additionally updating the variation pattern of the decorative symbol is executed with the end of the variation of the decorative symbol at the time of the big hit. Further, for example, in the case of “effect during a big hit”, a process for additionally updating the contents of the effect executed during the big hit is executed with the display of the end of the big hit as a trigger. Note that the parameters are merely examples, and other parameters may be provided as necessary. In addition, as shown in this example (particularly, the lower table below) You may comprise so that the parameter used as the game history of a sub side may be provided in the form which integrated the result.

  Returning to the description of the flowchart, next, in step 6712, the game history update control means 2322 f is based on the contents of the updated game history registration table 2322 f-1-1, a mission achievement status registration table 2322 f-1. It is determined whether any mission content in -2 has been achieved. In the case of Yes in step 6712, in step 6714, the game history update control means 2322f accesses the mission achievement status registration table 2322f-1-2, and updates the mission achievement status regarding the mission content determined to have been achieved. (If the mission content that has already been achieved is achieved again, it may be configured to count up the number of times the mission has been achieved), and proceed to the next processing (game history update end processing in step 6800). To do. In the case of No in step 6702 or step 6712, the process proceeds to the next process (game history update end process in step 6800), in the case of No in step 6704, the process proceeds to step 6708, and in the case of No in step 6708. Then, the process proceeds to step 6712.

  Next, FIG. 27 is a flowchart of the game history update end process (acoustic code issuance control process) according to the subroutine of step 6800 in FIG. First, the purpose of this process is to issue information related to the game history from the gaming machine side in response to a predetermined operation by the player in order to realize the gaming machine linked service. Here, in a conventional gaming machine, when issuing information related to a game history from the gaming machine side, an image (for example, a QR code (registered trademark) (registered trademark) image) generated by encoding the information is produced. It was displayed on the display device 2310 or the like. However, in order for the player to acquire information relating to the game history, the player is forced to take a procedure of capturing the image with the mobile communication terminal owned by the player. Such a procedure is a high threshold for a player who is unfamiliar with the operation method of the mobile communication terminal, and the mobile communication terminal owned by the player may not have an imaging function. From this point of view, in this embodiment, when issuing information related to a game history from the gaming machine side, an audio signal wave generated by encoding the information is output from the speaker 114. Hereinafter, an example of such a configuration will be described in detail.

  First, in step 6801, the acoustic code transfer control means 2322g determines whether or not the game history update flag in the effect display related information temporary storage means 2322c is on. In the case of Yes in Step 6801, in Step 6808, the acoustic code transfer control means 2322g determines whether or not an operation according to a predetermined procedure has been performed by the effect operating device 4000. Here, the operation content of the predetermined procedure is not particularly limited. For example, a dedicated operation button for instructing the sound code issuance is provided in the effect operation device 4000, and the sound code issuance process is executed when the operation button is pressed. Can be mentioned. In the case of Yes in Step 6808, in Step 6810, the acoustic code transfer control means 2322g refers to the contents of the game history registration table 2322f-1-1 and the mission achievement status registration table 2322f-1-2 {that is, the current time The subsequent processing is executed based on the game history and mission achievement status accumulated until now}. Next, in step 6811, the acoustic code transfer control means 2322 g performs coding (acoustics) using a predetermined coding algorithm based on the referred game history and mission achievement status (including information such as a user ID as necessary). Code). Next, in step 6812, the acoustic code transfer control means 2322g sends predetermined voice data {eg, a message “instructing activation of a predetermined application (the function of the application will be described later) in the player-owned mobile communication terminal”. "Please start the application" or the like is the data to be played back in a loop, and in this example, it is mechanically executed regardless of whether or not a predetermined application is started on the mobile communication terminal T100 side described later} An audio signal wave is output to the speaker 114.

Here, Steps 134-S4 and Steps 136-S4 are the same processes as Steps 6413 and 6414 in FIG. Next, in step 138-S4, the input information reflection control unit 2322J sets the temporarily stored information in the effect custom content registration table 2322a-3-1 and the drawing display content change unit 2322a-7. Switches the content of the production mode determination reference table 2322a-1-3 based on the content set in the production custom content registration table 2322a-3-1. Here, Step 138-S4 is the same processing as Step 6416 of FIG. The pachinko gaming machine 100 advances the game based on a predetermined operation of the player.

  With the above system flow, the production contents of the pachinko gaming machine 100 can be customized according to the player's preference, and the customization contents can be stored on the gaming machine server V100 side. Then, with the game history information restoration service, the types of production customs that can be instructed as the custom level increases will increase. In the present embodiment, for convenience of explanation, the game history password and the production custom password are generated by different processes, but the present invention is not limited to this. In that case, the information related to the game history and the information related to the effect custom are collectively set to the same password, and steps 108-S2 in the game history information restoration service and steps 124-S4 in the game machine effect custom service are the same processing. do it.

  According to the present embodiment, information related to the gaming history accumulated based on the gaming result in the pachinko gaming machine 100 can be accumulated in the gaming machine server V100, and the gaming history information accumulated in the gaming machine server V100 is stored in the gaming history information. In the gaming machine system configured to allow the player (owner of the mobile communication terminal T100) to be granted privilege information (in this example, permission for content distribution and permission for customization of effects in the gaming machine), pachinko Since the gaming machine 100 is configured to output an acoustic code generated by encoding the information from the speaker 114 when issuing information related to the game history, the steps 106-S1 and 128-S2 in the system flow are performed. As shown in the figure, the player must make full use of the imaging function of the mobile communication terminal T100. There is no. More specifically, a complicated procedure that makes full use of the imaging function (for example, the imaging function installed in the mobile communication terminal T100 is activated, and mobile communication is performed near the QR code (registered trademark) image display area. Move terminal T100 closer → adjust focus and image capture position → press shutter button) into simplified procedure (start predetermined application → move mobile communication terminal T100 closer to speaker 114) Therefore, even if the player is unfamiliar with the operation method of the mobile communication terminal or the mobile communication terminal owned by the player does not have an imaging function, the information related to the game history is moved. It becomes possible to easily take in the body communication terminal T100.

  Further, according to the present embodiment, the pachinko gaming machine 100 is configured to output the acoustic code generated by coding the information from the speaker 114 when issuing the information related to the game history. The machine 100 does not require a special device for issuing information related to the game history (other than the speaker 114). Therefore, it is possible to incorporate the configuration relating to the acoustic code output in the present embodiment in the majority of gaming machines in recent pachinko gaming machines and revolving type gaming machines.

  Further, according to the present embodiment, when the pachinko gaming machine 100 outputs the acoustic code from the speaker 114, the voice message based on the predetermined voice data (in this example, “Please start the application” or the like) ) Is output together, so that the player can feel that the acoustic code is being output. Therefore, it becomes possible for the player to easily recognize the timing at which the information related to the game history is taken into the mobile communication terminal T100.

  The characteristics of the speaker 114 are not particularly limited. As shown in step 6826 in FIG. 27, the acoustic code in the present embodiment is configured to be output as a sound wave in a high sound range (high frequency band). Therefore, what can output the sound wave of a higher sound range (high frequency band) is suitable. In this case, for example, a loudspeaker (5 kHz to 24 kHz) speaker (equipped with a so-called tweeter), a super-high frequency (25 kHz to 100 kHz) speaker (equipped with a so-called super tweeter), etc. Can do. However, when a high-frequency or ultra-high-frequency speaker is used on the pachinko gaming machine 100 side, the characteristics of the voice input / output device T1500 (particularly the microphone T164) on the mobile communication terminal T100 side are also high-frequency (high frequency). Note that it is necessary to be configured to collect sound waves of (band).

(Modification 1)
The speaker 114 in the pachinko gaming machine 100 has a sound collecting function (microphone function) (for example, a well-known dynamic speaker can be used, but a microphone may be provided separately from the speaker 114. In this case, a different aspect from the present embodiment can be considered. Therefore, an example of such an aspect is a modified example (modified example 1) from the present embodiment, and only the modified points from the present embodiment will be described in detail below.

  First, FIG. 36 is a flowchart of the game history update start process according to the subroutine of step 6400 in FIG. 18 in the first modification of the present embodiment. First, the changes from this embodiment are about Step 6405 (Modification 1) to Step 6407 (Modification 1), and the purpose is to output from the outside of the pachinko gaming machine 100 using the sound collecting function of the speaker 114. Is to obtain a sound code. That is, in Step 6405 (Variant 1), the acoustic code transfer control means 2322g determines that a predetermined frequency band (the frequency band is the same as Step 6826) of the audio signal wave collected (input) by the speaker 114. The voice signal wave may be extracted and demodulated (for example, a demodulation scheme corresponding to the modulation scheme based on the OFDM scheme described above can be cited). Next, in Step 6406 (Variant 1), the acoustic code transfer control means 2322g determines whether or not a predetermined acoustic code exists based on the demodulated audio signal wave (a mobile communication terminal T100 described later). This is a determination as to whether or not the acoustic code output from can be acquired. If it cannot be acquired, the subsequent processing is not executed). In the case of Yes in Step 6406 (Modification 1), in Step 6407 (Modification 1), the acoustic code transfer control means 2322g uses the input information (as will be described later, based on the acquired acoustic code) by a predetermined decoding algorithm. In the example, a game history password) is derived, and the process proceeds to step 6407.

  Next, FIG. 37 is a system flow of a game history information restoration service of the gaming machine linkage system 10 according to the first modification of the present embodiment. First, the changes from this embodiment are about Step 116-2 (Modification 1) and Step 118-2 (Modification 1), and the purpose is distributed from the gaming machine server V100 to the mobile communication terminal T100. The game history password (see Steps 102-S2 to 114-S2) is acoustically encoded and output from the speaker T162 of the mobile communication terminal T100. That is, in Step 116-2 (Modification 1) which is processing of the mobile communication terminal T100, the mobile communication terminal T100 starts predetermined application software including the acoustic code information transfer control means T1110 (as described above). It is not limited to the starting method). Here, when the predetermined application software is activated in step 106-S2 (modified 1), the acoustic code information transfer control means T1110 analyzes the password display Web page transmitted from the gaming machine server V100. A password (equivalent to the password manually input by the player in the present embodiment) is extracted, and an acoustic code is generated by a predetermined encoding algorithm based on the extracted password, and then output from the speaker T162. Then, in Step 118-2 (Modification 1) that is the process of the pachinko gaming machine 100, Step 6405 (Modification 1) to Step 6407 (Modification 1) described above are executed.

  With the above system flow, according to the first modification of the present embodiment, information related to the gaming history accumulated based on the gaming results in the pachinko gaming machine 100 can be accumulated in the gaming machine server V100, and the gaming machine server Based on the game history information accumulated in V100, privilege information (in this example, permission for content distribution and permission for customization of effect contents in the gaming machine) can be given to the player (owner of mobile communication terminal T100). In the configured gaming machine system, the pachinko gaming machine 100 uses the sound wave collected from the speaker 114 to input information (in this example, gaming history password input) that triggers the start of accumulation of gaming history. Since it is configured to be input based on Step 116-S2 (Modification 1) and Step in the system flow. 118-S2 as shown by (variable 1), the player is not required to operate the staging operation unit 4000 of the pachinko machine 100. More specifically, a complicated operation procedure of the production operation device 4000 (for example, calling up a password input screen → confirming a password displayed on the mobile communication terminal T100 → entering a password character by character using the input interface) Can be converted into a simplified procedure (the mobile communication terminal T100 is brought close to the vicinity of the speaker 114), so that even a player who is unfamiliar with the operation method of the effect operation device 4000 and the mobile communication terminal Therefore, the information input operation to the pachinko gaming machine 100 can be easily performed.

(Modification 2)
In the present embodiment, the timing at which the information related to the game history is issued from the pachinko gaming machine 100 side is the timing at which an operation of a predetermined procedure is performed by the effect operating device 4000 (see step 6808 in FIG. 27). However, the present invention is not limited to this. To supplement this point, the pachinko gaming machine 100 is configured to output an acoustic code generated by encoding the information from the speaker 114 when issuing information related to the game history, and the acoustic code itself is It can be transmitted in a form that is difficult to hear or inaudible to the player. That is, even when the game is in progress, it is easy to issue information related to the game history without hindering the visibility and hearing of the performance being executed. Therefore, using such a feature, a mode that can dynamically change the timing of issuing information related to the game history from the pachinko gaming machine 100 side is a modified example (modified example 2) from the present embodiment, Hereinafter, only the changes from the present embodiment will be described in detail.

  Next, FIG. 38 is a flowchart of the game history update end process (acoustic code issuance control process) according to the subroutine of Step 6800 of FIG. 27 in Modification Example 2 of the present embodiment. First, the change from this embodiment is the processing after Step 6808 (Modification 2), and its purpose is to issue information related to the game history from the pachinko gaming machine 100 side in various cases including in-game. It is to be. Note that the following is merely an example, and information related to a game history may be issued in cases other than these cases.

  First, in Step 6808 (Modification 2), the acoustic code transfer control unit 2322g determines which of the acoustic code output conditions described later is satisfied, and executes different processes depending on the determination result.

  Next, when it is determined in Step 6808 (Variation 2) that the acoustic code transfer control means 2322g satisfies “when a predetermined effect is executed” as the acoustic code output condition (for example, a specific image such as a premier image is displayed). However, the sound code transfer control unit 2322g may be configured to execute the subsequent processing a plurality of times if a predetermined effect is being executed) in Step 6810 (Variation 2). A URL corresponding to the effect being executed is acquired (hereinafter, referred to as an image download URL. For example, when a certain premium image is displayed, the same image data as the certain premium image is stored. (The URL on the gaming machine server V100 is acquired in advance in the ROM on the pachinko gaming machine 100 side). Next, in Step 6812 (Modification 2), the acoustic code transfer control means 2322g accumulates the acquired URL in the effect display related information temporary storage means 2322c and temporarily stores it (the same URL has already been temporarily stored). If yes, the process may be skipped), and the process proceeds to Step 6890 (Modification 2).

  On the other hand, when it is determined in Step 6808 (Variation 2) that the acoustic code transfer control means 2322g satisfies the “at the end of a predetermined number of symbol variations” as the acoustic code output condition {for example, at the start of game history update (game When the symbol variation for 10 times is counted from the time when the history update flag is turned on, etc.}, in step 6820 (variant 2), the acoustic code transfer control means 2322g is a game history registration table 2322f- 1-1 and the mission achievement status registration table 2322f-1-2 are referred to, and the game history and mission achievement status accumulated so far are acquired. Next, in Step 6822 (Modification 2), the acoustic code transfer control means 2322g acquires all the image download URLs temporarily stored in the effect display related information temporary storage means 2322c, and proceeds to Step 6890 (Modification 2). .

  On the other hand, when it is determined in Step 6808 (Variation 2) that the acoustic code transfer control means 2322g satisfies “when the game status is confirmed” as the acoustic code output condition {for example, the firing handle 116 is not operated, etc.} In Step 6830 (Variation 2), the acoustic code transfer control means 2322g counts the difference information {eg, when the game history update is started (when the game history update flag is turned on), and the launch device 232 (launch Step 6890 obtains numerical information that is the difference between the number of game balls (IN) emitted from the control board 230) and the number of game balls (OUT) paid out from the payout unit 216 (prize ball payout control device 3000). Move to (Modification 2).

  On the other hand, if it is determined in Step 6808 (Variation 2) that the acoustic code transfer control means 2322g satisfies “when game interruption / termination is determined” as the acoustic code output condition {for example, the firing handle 116 is not operated. In addition, when non-design variation is being executed and there is no hold (others, it may be possible that the presence of a player cannot be detected by a predetermined sensor while the demo screen is displayed)}, in step 6840 (odd 2), The acoustic code transfer control means 2322g obtains the balance information {for example, numerical information that is an unused amount in the recording medium (card, coin, etc.) inserted in the card unit}. Next, in Step 6842 (Variation 2), the acoustic code transfer control means 2322g refers to the contents of the game history registration table 2322f-1-1 and the mission achievement status registration table 2322f-1-2, so far. Acquire accumulated game history and mission achievement status. Next, in Step 6844 (Modification 2), the acoustic code transfer control means 2322g acquires all the image download URLs temporarily stored in the effect display related information temporary storage means 2322c, and proceeds to Step 6890 (Modification 2). .

  Then, in Step 6890 (Modification 2) to Step 6894 (Modification 2), the acoustic code transfer control means 2322g executes the same processing as Step 6811 and Step 6824 to Step 6828 in the present embodiment. That is, in Step 6890 (Modification 2), the acoustic chord transfer control means 2322g is coded (acoustic coding) by a predetermined coding algorithm based on the information acquired immediately before the transition to this step, and is acoustically coded. The data is modulated to generate an acoustic code signal wave. Next, in Step 6892 (Variation 2), the acoustic code transfer control means 2322g is output at the time of execution of the processing (for example, if it is “at the time of executing a predetermined effect”, the sound for the effect is output). Cut the output of the audio signal wave in the specified frequency band. In Step 6894 (Variation 2), the acoustic code transfer control means 2322g synthesizes an acoustic code signal wave in the cut predetermined frequency band and outputs it to the speaker 114 for the next processing (the game in Step 6400). The process proceeds to history update start processing.

  If none of the acoustic code output conditions is satisfied in Step 6808 (Modification 2), the process proceeds to the next process (game history update start process in Step 6400). Here, in this example, the processing (see FIG. 27) related to the subroutine of Step 6800 in the present embodiment is not shown, but it is supplemented that it can be implemented in combination with this example. . Although not shown, the mobile communication terminal T100 side during the game includes {for example, Steps 116-S2 (Modification 1) to S128-S2 (Modification 1) in FIG. 37}, including the acoustic code information transfer control means T1110. When the predetermined application software is running, the sound wave output in Step 6894 (Variation 2) can be collected and the received information content can be derived. Therefore, the processing according to the received information content is appropriately executed. What is necessary is just to comprise. For example, if the received information content is image download URL information, the mobile communication terminal T100 may access the gaming machine server V100 to execute image download processing, or numerical information such as difference information and balance information. Then, it may be displayed directly on the display device T122 of the mobile communication terminal T100. Further, when displaying the numerical information on the display device T122, additional information is also displayed on the application software side of the mobile communication terminal T100 (for example, if there is a balance, the recording medium inserted in the card unit is displayed). It may be configured to display a message notifying the player of forgetting to collect.

  By configuring as described above, according to the second modification of the present embodiment, the pachinko gaming machine 100 impairs the visibility and hearing of the performance being performed in various cases including in-game. It is possible to issue information relating to the game history from the pachinko gaming machine 100 side without doing so. As a result, it becomes possible to provide suitable information according to the game progress status in a push manner from the pachinko gaming machine 100 side to the mobile communication terminal T100 at any timing including the progress of the game. is there.

  Further, according to the second modification of the present embodiment, in various cases including in-game, it is possible to provide a plurality of information transmission timings, and at a certain transmission timing and a timing different from the certain transmission timing. The information transmission contents can be the same contents or different contents. Therefore, when the information transmission contents are the same at a plurality of information transmission timings, it is possible to configure to have an information retransmission function (for example, an image download URL retransmission function in this example). On the other hand, when different information transmission contents are used at a plurality of information transmission timings, the load of information transmission processing is reduced (for example, information relating to game history and mission achievement status in this example is a predetermined number of times. It is possible to transmit the latest information all at once at the end of symbol variation).

  In addition, in the second modification of the present embodiment, when the configuration as in the first modification of the present embodiment is used, bidirectional communication between the pachinko gaming machine 100 side and the mobile communication terminal T100 side is established. Therefore, for example, when the acoustic code transmitted from the pachinko gaming machine 100 side can be received by the mobile communication terminal T100 side, normal reception is received from the mobile communication terminal T100 side to the pachinko gaming machine 100 side. You may comprise so that the acoustic code (response information) to the effect may be transmitted. In that case, when the pachinko gaming machine 100 cannot receive the response information, it is possible to further increase the certainty of information transmission / reception by retransmitting the acoustic code.

  In the second modification of the present embodiment, only information transmission from one pachinko gaming machine 100 to one mobile communication terminal T100 is illustrated, but the present invention is not limited to this. That is, since the acoustic code transmitted from the pachinko gaming machine 100 side can be easily transmitted as a sound wave to a long distance (for example, 10 m or more), information transmission from one pachinko gaming machine 100 to another mobile communication terminal T100 is possible. Easy. More specifically, an acoustic code is transmitted from the pachinko gaming machine 100 installed in a certain game hall to the entire certain game hall, and the acoustic code transmitted to the entire game hall is moved. By configuring so that it can be received by the body communication terminal T100 side, it becomes possible to view the game history of all pachinko gaming machines 100 installed in the certain gaming state from the mobile communication terminal T100 {in this case Is preferably configured to output information (for example, the number of symbol variations and the number of jackpots) that is different from the game history to be accumulated in the gaming machine server V100}.

(Modification 3)
On the other hand, when attention is paid only to information transmission from one pachinko gaming machine 100 to one mobile communication terminal T100 {mainly highly confidential information (for example, games to be stored in the gaming machine server V100) In the case of transmitting information relating to history), it is desirable to increase the certainty of information transmission. In particular, in this embodiment, the acoustic code transmitted from the pachinko gaming machine 100 side is a sound wave, which can be generated, and confusion with the acoustic code transmitted from another pachinko gaming machine 100, and the acoustic code signal wave Factors that hinder the certainty of information transmission, such as mutual interference (frequency band similarity), must be eliminated as much as possible. Therefore, an example of such an aspect is a modified example (modified example 3) from the present embodiment, and only the modified points from the present embodiment will be described in detail below. Note that the third modification is largely divided into an embodiment using software and an embodiment using hardware.

  Next, FIG. 39 is a main flowchart on the sub-board side of FIG. 17 in Modification 3 of the present embodiment. First, the changes from the present embodiment are Step 6002 (Modification 3) and Step 6004 (Modification 3), and the purpose is to obtain an identifier unique to the gaming machine. That is, in Step 6002 (Modification 3), the effect control unit 2320 determines whether it is the start timing of the sub-control device side (particularly, the effect control device 2320). In the case of Yes in Step 6002 (Variation 3), in Step 6004 (Variation 3), the effect control means 2320 acquires an identifier specific to the gaming machine based on a predetermined identifier acquisition method, and displays the acquired identifier in the effect display. The related information temporary storage unit 2322c temporarily stores the information. On the other hand, if step 6002 (modification 3) is No, step 6004 (modification 3) is skipped. Here, the predetermined identifier acquisition method is not particularly limited. For example, a method of reading a product ID stored in a ROM in the main control device 1000 or the effect control device 2320, or a random number provided on the effect control means 2320 side. A method of obtaining a random value generated by a counter can be mentioned. However, as will be described later, since the temporarily stored identifier is output to the outside of the pachinko gaming machine 100, it is not desirable to disclose the product ID to the outside (for example, to improve the security of the gaming machine). For example, when a key value is used, a method of acquiring a random value is more preferable.

  Next, FIG. 40 is a flowchart of the game history update end process (acoustic code issuance control process) according to the subroutine of Step 6800 in FIG. 27 in the third modification of the present embodiment. First, the changes from this embodiment are about Step 6808 (Modification 3), Step 6811 (Modification 3), Step 6826 (Modification 3), and Step 6840 (Modification 3) to Step 6844 (Modification 3). The purpose is to generate an acoustic code signal wave and assign a frequency band based on an identifier unique to the gaming machine.

  First, the generation of the acoustic code signal wave based on the unique identifier of the gaming machine will be described. In the case of Yes in step 6801, the acoustic code transfer control means 2322g outputs the game history output timing {eg, It is determined whether or not the timing related to the game history output instruction by the performance operation device 4000 (when the dedicated operation button is operated in the above example), at the end of a predetermined number of symbol changes, etc.} . In the case of Yes in Step 6808 (Modification 3), in Step 6811 (Modification 3), the acoustic code transfer control means 2322g performs acoustic code generation processing (for example, the game history accumulated up to the present time as described above). And a predetermined coding algorithm based on the mission achievement status, etc.), and for the generated sound code, the game machine-specific information temporarily stored in the presentation display related information temporary storage means 2322c The identifier is incorporated (both bit strings may be directly combined, or a code including both pieces of information may be further generated), and the process proceeds to step 6812.

  On the other hand, in the case of No in Step 6808 (Modification 3), in Step 6840 (Modification 3), the acoustic code transfer control means 2322g starts the game history update start timing {for example, the game operation history update start by the effect operating device 4000. It is determined whether the operation related to the instruction (in the above example, the password input) is performed, at the end of a predetermined number of symbol changes, etc.}. In the case of Yes in Step 6840 (Modified 3), in Step 6842 (Modified 3), the acoustic code transfer control means 2322g generates the acoustic code generation process {for example, information related to the content of the rendering custom instruction (there was a rendering custom instruction operation) In other words, the information is encoded by a predetermined encoding algorithm, etc.}, and the generated sound code is temporarily stored in the effect display related information temporary storage unit 2322c. A stored unique identifier of the gaming machine is incorporated. In step 6844 (Variation 3), the acoustic code transfer control means 2322g determines the predetermined voice data {eg, a message “instruct the start of the predetermined application in the mobile communication terminal owned by the player” ”Etc. are output to the speaker 114 based on the data to be reproduced in a loop}, and the process proceeds to Step 6816. If the answer is No in Step 6840 (Modification 3), the process proceeds to Step 6816.

  Next, the frequency band allocation of the acoustic code signal wave based on the unique identifier of the gaming machine will be described. In the case of Yes in Step 6822, the acoustic code transfer control means 2322g is currently output in Step 6826 (Variation 3). The output of the predetermined frequency band of the audio signal wave, which is determined (allocated) based on the identifier unique to the gaming machine, is cut, and the process proceeds to Step 6828. Here, the frequency band allocation method is not particularly limited, but as described above, it is a frequency band that can be output from the speaker 114 (and can be input from the microphone T164) and is difficult or inaudible to the player. It is desirable to divide the band.

  By configuring as described above, according to the third modification of the present embodiment, the pachinko gaming machine 100 is configured to further incorporate an identifier unique to the gaming machine when outputting the acoustic code. On the communication terminal T100 side, the sound wave output in Step 6844 (Modification 3) is collected and an identifier unique to the gaming machine is derived (the derived identifier is stored in the information storage means T1150). By checking the consistency between the derived unique identifier of the gaming machine and the unique identifier of the gaming machine included in the acoustic code transmitted from the pachinko gaming machine 100 side, the pachinko gaming machine to communicate one-to-one It is possible to determine whether or not the sound code is transmitted. Therefore, as a result of avoiding confusion with an acoustic code transmitted from another pachinko gaming machine 100, the reliability of information transmission can be improved.

  Further, according to the third modification of the present embodiment, the pachinko gaming machine 100 is configured to output an acoustic code signal wave in a frequency band assigned based on an identifier unique to the gaming machine. As a result of avoiding interference (frequency band similarity) between output acoustic code signal waves even between pachinko machines that are close to each other (located at a distance where sound waves can interfere with each other) Certainty can be improved.

  In addition, in the third modification of the present embodiment, when the configuration is the same as that of the first modification of the present embodiment, the acoustic code is received on the pachinko gaming machine 100 side and moved with the pachinko gaming machine 100 side. Since it is possible to establish two-way communication with the body communication terminal T100 side, a more preferable aspect can be obtained.

  For example, in the system flow shown in Step 108-S2 to Step 116-S2 (Modification 1) in FIG. 37, the user information issued from the gaming machine server V100 side is set as a player-specific identifier (for example, user ID). In this case, without executing Step 6002 (Modified 3), Step 6004 (Modified 3), and Step 6840 (Modified 3) to Step 6844 (Modified 3), 6811 (Modified 3) is used using the unique identifier of the player. By executing, on the mobile communication terminal T100 side, it is possible to determine whether or not it is an acoustic code transmitted from a pachinko gaming machine to be communicated one to one.

  In addition, in the frequency band allocation method, the acoustic code signal waves are configured so as to confirm each other between adjacent pachinko machines (positioned at a distance at which sound waves can interfere with each other). Interference between signal waves (frequency band similarity) can be avoided more effectively. Supplementing this point, if the frequency band that can be output from the speaker 114 (and can be input from the microphone T164) and is configured to divide the band that is difficult or inaudible to the player, the divided number ( That is, it is conceivable that the number of bands) is significantly smaller than the type of identifier unique to the gaming machine. In such a case, in order to effectively use a limited number of bands and avoid interference between acoustic code signal waves, a function to adjust the frequency band of the acoustic code signal waves to be different between adjacent pachinko machines Is important.

  Next, FIG. 41 shows the basic structure of the front side of the pachinko gaming machine 100 in Modification 3 of the present embodiment. As shown in this example (the box on the left in the figure), in the conventional pachinko gaming machine, a flat cover member (with slits or meshes) on the front surface (player side) of the speaker 114 Are often provided over a wide area. Therefore, even if the mobile communication terminal T100 (particularly, the microphone T164 portion) is brought close to the vicinity of the speaker 114, there is a possibility that surrounding sound waves are collected by the microphone T164. Therefore, it is preferable to design the shape of the cover member so that the speaker 114 and the microphone T164 are brought close to each other. Hereinafter, two examples shown in this example (right side of the figure) will be described.

  First, Example 1 (upper right in the figure) is a type in which the mobile communication terminal T100 is inserted into the cover member. Specifically, the cover member is integrally formed with a soundproof member 114a that exhibits a soundproofing effect and a cover member 114b that includes a slit or a mesh, and is disposed on the front surface (player side) of the speaker 114. Here, the soundproof member 114a is opened to the speaker 114 side, and a cover member 114b is provided on the inner surface of the opening. The speaker 114 is disposed at a position close to the cover member 114b. In the cover member configured in this manner, the mobile communication terminal T100 is inserted until it substantially comes into contact with the inner surface of the opening, so that the speaker 114 and the distal end portion of the mobile communication terminal T100 sandwich the cover member 114b. While approaching, the front-end | tip part of the mobile communication terminal T100 will be accommodated in the form covered with the soundproof member 114a. Therefore, when the microphone T164 is provided at the tip of the mobile communication terminal T100, sound waves from the speaker 114 can be efficiently transmitted to the microphone T164 while sound waves outside the cover member are prevented. It is. Since the shape of the mobile communication terminal T100 varies depending on the type of the terminal, the opening shape of the soundproof member 114a is configured to be freely adjustable according to the shape of the mobile communication terminal T100. It is desirable.

  Next, Example 2 (lower right in the figure) is a type in which the mobile communication terminal T100 is placed vertically with respect to the cover member. The difference from this example 1 (upper right in the figure) is that the opening is inclined (about 45 degrees in this example) with respect to the horizontal axis of the gaming machine, and the moving body at the opening of the soundproof member 114a. The point which can accommodate the whole communication terminal T100 is the point by which the cover member 114b is provided in the side surface of the said opening part. In the cover member configured in this manner, by accommodating the mobile communication terminal T100 in the opening, the speaker 114 and the tip of the mobile communication terminal T100 come close to each other with the cover member 114b interposed therebetween, and the mobile body The display device T122 of the communication terminal T100 is accommodated in a form that can be exposed to the player. Therefore, when the microphone T164 is provided at the tip of the mobile communication terminal T100, sound waves from the speaker 114 can be efficiently transmitted to the microphone T164 and the display device T122 can be easily viewed. It is. Since the shape of the mobile communication terminal T100 varies depending on the type of the terminal, the opening shape of the soundproof member 114a is configured to be freely adjustable according to the shape of the mobile communication terminal T100. It is desirable. In addition, the cover member 114b is provided on all side surfaces of the opening of the soundproofing member 114a, and the position of the speaker 114 is configured to be movable to any side of the opening, so that the microphone T164 can be attached according to the type of the terminal. Even if the positions are different, it can be easily handled (the speaker 114 and the microphone T164 can be brought close to each other with the cover member 114b interposed).

  Note that it is also effective to improve the reliability of information transmission between the speaker 114 and the microphone T164 by using a speaker (for example, a parametric speaker or the like) capable of outputting highly directional sound waves as the speaker 114. is there. Further, it may be configured to generate noise from the speaker 114 at the time of information transmission so that the information is not intercepted by other players. In this case, when acquiring the information, an FPS speaker or the like is used to obtain the reverse phase. What is necessary is just to comprise so that noise may be canceled by control (the reverse is also possible).
