That is, the state where the tongue member 2321 is closed (first state) is a state where it is difficult to enter the game ball, and the state where the tongue member 2321 is opened (second state) is the state where the game ball is easy to enter. In other words, the special figure 2 starting port 232 is a variable starting region in which the ease of entry of a game ball is variable, and corresponds to an example of a second starting region. When a predetermined ball detection sensor detects a ball entering the special opening 2 232, the payout device 152 is driven to discharge a predetermined number (for example, two) of balls to the upper plate 126 as prize balls. Then, a special figure variable game (hereinafter sometimes referred to as “special figure 2 variable game”) by the second special figure display device 214 is started. The ball that has entered the special figure 2 starting port 232 is guided to the back side of the pachinko machine 100 and then discharged to the amusement island side.

  The first variable winning opening 234 and the second variable winning opening 235 are called a large winning opening or an attacker, and in the present embodiment, they are arranged vertically below the game board 200 side by side. Both the first variable winning opening 234 and the second variable winning opening 235 include a variable winning opening and a door member that can be opened and closed by a solenoid. The variable winning opening is sometimes called a big winning opening, and the variable winning opening is sometimes called an attacker. Accordingly, the first variable winning opening 234 is a first attacker provided with the first variable winning opening and the first door member 2341, and the second variable winning opening 235 is the second variable winning opening and the second door member 2351. And a second attacker. Hereinafter, when the first variable winning opening 234 and the second variable winning opening 235 are described without particular distinction, the variable winning opening (234, 235), the variable winning opening, the door member (2341), or the like. , 2351) or an attacker. The door members (2341, 2351) are in a closed state (sometimes referred to as difficult to enter, difficult to win, and inability to win), and easier to enter the game ball into the variable winning opening than in the closed state. The state is changed from any one of the open states (sometimes referred to as an easy-to-enter state, an easy-to-win state, and a winning state) to the other state. Both the closed state and the open state are stationary states, the closed state is a predetermined first stationary state, and the closed state at the variable winning opening (234, 235) of the present embodiment is that the door members (2341, 2351) are closed. The game board 200 is in a stationary state that matches the surface of the player side. On the other hand, the open state is a predetermined second stationary state, and in the open state at the variable winning opening (234, 235) of the present embodiment, the door members (2341, 351) are substantially perpendicular to the game board 200. It is a stationary state rotated to the player side. The variable winning opening (234, 235) is kept closed until a jackpot game, which will be described later, is started. For example, in the odd round of the jackpot game (for example, one round, three rounds, etc.), the first variable The winning opening 234 is opened, and the second variable winning opening 235 is opened in an even number of rounds (for example, 2 rounds, 4 rounds,...). In the present embodiment, the first variable prize winning opening 234 and the second variable prize winning opening 235 are not simultaneously opened. Note that the closed state may be a state where the game ball is slightly opened to the extent that it is substantially impossible to enter the game ball, in addition to the completely closed state. In addition, the open state may be a state where the game ball is closed a little to the extent that the game ball can enter, in addition to the state where the game ball is completely open. Further, the variable winning opening is not limited to the one shown in FIG. 3 as long as it becomes a winning of the game ball by passing or entering the game ball. When the special figure variable game is won and the first special figure display device 212 or the second special figure display device 214 stops and displays the big hit symbol, the door member opens and closes at a predetermined time interval and a predetermined number of times. The ball that has entered the first variable winning opening 234 is guided to the back side of the pachinko machine 100 through a predetermined discharge passage, and is then discharged to the game island side. When the game ball passes through a predetermined passage area (first passage area) in the discharge passage (first discharge passage), it is detected by the first count switch SW1. When the passing of a game ball is detected by the first count switch SW1 within an effective period to be described later, the payout device 152 is driven, and a predetermined number (for example, 15) of balls are discharged to the upper plate 126 as prize balls. The In addition, the ball that has entered the second variable winning opening 235 is guided to the back side of the pachinko machine 100 by a predetermined discharge passage, and then discharged to the game island side. When the game ball passes through a predetermined passage area (second passage area) in the discharge passage (second discharge passage), it is detected by the second count switch SW2. When the passing of a game ball is detected by the second count switch SW2 within an effective period to be described later, the payout device 152 is driven, and a predetermined number (for example, 15) of balls are discharged to the upper plate 126 as prize balls. The As described above, the first variable prize winning opening 234 and the second variable prize winning opening 235 are variable prize winnings that can be changed between an easy entry state where a game ball is easy to enter and a difficult entry state where a game ball is difficult to enter. It functions as an example of means. The first passing area and the second passing area function as an example of a passing area through which a game ball that has entered the variable winning means can pass. Note that the first variable winning opening 234 and the second variable winning opening 235 may be in the form of an electric tulip.

  Next, with reference to FIGS. 5A to 5D, the first special figure display device 212, the second special figure display device 214, the decorative symbol display device 208, and the universal figure display device 210 of the pachinko machine 100 are stopped and displayed. The types of special maps and common maps to be explained

  The special figure 1 variable game is started on the condition that the first start port sensor, which is a ball detection sensor, detects that a ball has entered the special view 1 start port 230, and the ball enters the special view 2 start port 232 The special figure 2 variable game is started on the condition that the second start-up sensor, which is a ball detection sensor, detects that the ball has been shot. When the special figure 1 variable game is started, the first special figure display device 212 repeats the lighting of all the seven segments and the lighting of the central one segment “variable display of special figure 1” (special figure). (Floating game). When the special figure 2 variable game is started, the second special figure display device 214 repeats the lighting of all the seven segments and the lighting of the central one segment “variable display of special figure 2” ( (Special map variable game). Then, when the variation time determined before the start of the fluctuation of the special figure 1 elapses, the first special figure display device 212 stops and displays the stop symbol form of the special figure 1, and the fluctuation time determined before the start of the fluctuation of the special figure 2 When elapses, the second special figure display device 214 stops and displays the stop symbol form of the special figure 2. Hereinafter, the fluctuation display from the start of “fluctuation display of special figure 1 or 2” to the stop display of the special symbol form of special figure 1 or 2 may be referred to as special figure fluctuation display. This special figure variation display may be continuously performed a plurality of times.

  Fig.5 (a) shows an example of the stop symbol aspect of the special figure 1. FIG. FIG. 5 (a) shows nine types of special drawings from “Special Figure A” to “Special Figure I”. In FIG. 5A, the white portions in the figure indicate the segment locations where the light is turned off, and the black portions indicate the location where the segments are turned on.

  In the present embodiment, seven types of jackpot symbols ("Special Figure A" to "Special Figure G") are prepared as the stop pattern form of the special figure. “Special Figure A” is a 15-round (R) jackpot design, which is a 15R probable big hit design that can be expected to win in all of the 15 rounds, and “Special Figure B” is a 15R jackpot design. There are 5 rounds out of 15 rounds, and you can expect to get a lottery, but in the remaining rounds, you ca n’t expect to get a lottery. The special figure C is a 15R jackpot design. The 15R-Rank Up Bonus (RUB) symbol that can be expected to win in all of the 15 rounds, and “Special Figure D” is a 15R jackpot symbol, 8 of 15 rounds. It is a real 8R-RUB that cannot be expected in the remaining rounds, while it can be expected in one round, and “Special E” is a 15R jackpot symbol. It is a real 4R-RUB that cannot be expected in the remaining rounds, while it can be expected in 4 rounds of the und, and “Special Figure F” is a 5R regular jackpot symbol. “G” is a 2R jackpot symbol, and is a 2R probability jackpot symbol referred to as a latent probability variation or a hidden probability variation that cannot be expected in any round. Here, the rank-up bonus is, for example, a big hit that directs the player in a manner that makes it difficult for the player to specify how long a round that can be expected to be obtained at the start of the big hit will continue. (9th or 9th round), it is a big hit that directs the player whether or not the round in which the player can expect to win the ball will continue.

  In the pachinko machine 100 according to the present embodiment, determination of whether or not a big hit in the special figure variable game is made by lottery of hardware random numbers, and determination of whether or not a special big hit is made by lottery of software random numbers. The difference between the normal jackpot and the probable bonus jackpot is the difference in whether the probability of winning the jackpot is high (probability jackpot) or low (normal jackpot) in the next special figure variation game. Hereinafter, a state with a high probability of winning the jackpot is referred to as a special figure high probability state (hereinafter, sometimes referred to as “special figure certain change” or simply “probable change”), and a state with a low probability is specially designated. This is called a low probability state. Moreover, after the big hit game is over, there is a case where the state shifts to a short time state (electric support state). Here, the electric support state is a predetermined value in which the player's advantage is higher than the non-electric support state by shortening the time from the end of the big hit in the special figure variable game to the start of the next big hit. It means a state. Although the short time will be described in detail later, the short time state is referred to as a normal high probability state (hereinafter, sometimes referred to as “general probability change”), and the non-short time state is referred to as a general low probability state. In this way, the electric support state (short time state) is started on condition that the big hit game ends. Strictly speaking, the “electric support state” is a state related to a general plan, and the “short-time state” is a state related to a special figure or a state related to a general figure and a special figure. A short time flag is prepared in the RAM 308 of the main control unit 300, and when the short time flag is set to ON, it is in the electric support state and is usually in a high probability state. In the normal figure high probability state, compared to the normal figure low probability state, it becomes easier to win the common figure variable game (general figure certain change). For example, the winning probability of the usual figure floating game is 1/100 in the usual figure low probability state (non-electric support state), but increases to 99/100 in the usual figure high probability state (electric support state). In addition, in the electric support state, the fluctuation time of the general figure change game is shorter than that in the non-electric support state (the general figure change short). For example, in the non-electric support state, the variation time of the usual variable game of 10 seconds is shortened to 2 seconds in the electric support state. Further, in the electric support state, compared to the non-electric support state, the opening time for one opening of the tongue member 2321 of the special figure 2 starting port 232 is likely to be longer (extension of the electric chew opening period). For example, in the non-electric support state, the electric chew release period of 0.5 seconds is extended to 2 seconds in the electric support state. Further, in the electric support state, the tongue member 2321 is more likely to be opened than the non-electric support state (an increase in the number of times the electric chew is released). For example, the tongue member 2321 that opens only once in the non-electric support state per opening to the normal start port 228 opens twice in the electric support state (opens for 2 seconds, closes for 1 second, and then again for 2 seconds) Open). The probability of entering the special figure 2 starting port 232 increases due to the extension of the electric chew release period and the increase in the number of electric chew release times. Note that the hourly flag is set to off during the big hit game. Therefore, the non-electric support state is maintained during the big hit game. This is because, especially in a big hit game, a game ball is picked up by an electric Chu with a small number of prize balls, and if the number of game balls won in the variable prize opening (attacker) 234, 235 is reduced, a player is disadvantaged. Because there are cases. In the present embodiment, in the electric support state (short-time state), all of the normal figure change, the universal figure change, the electric chew release period extension, and the electric chew release frequency increase are performed. If any one is performed, a player's advantage will be in a high state and it may be in an electric support state (time-short state). Alternatively, if either one of the extension of the electric chew release period or the increase in the number of electric chew releases is performed, the electric support state (short time state) may be set. In the non-electric support state, the game ball is less likely to enter the special figure 2 starting port 232 than in the electric support state. As described above, the special figure 2 starting port 232 changes between a difficult-to-win state in which a game ball is difficult to enter and an easy-to-win state in which a game ball is easy to enter. The special figure 2 starting port 232 is in an easy-to-win state in the electric support state for a longer period than in the non-electric support state. In the present embodiment, when “Special Figure A” to “Special Figure E” are stopped and displayed, the electric support state (ordinary figure high probability state) until the next big hit game is started after the subsequent big hit game is finished. ) Is maintained and “Special Figure F” is stopped and displayed, the electric support state is maintained during the special figure variable game 100 times after the subsequent big hit game is completed, Transition to support state (ordinary low probability state). On the other hand, when a big hit without power support ("Special Figure G") is won, the game does not enter the power support state after the big hit game ends.

  Thus, in the present embodiment, when “Special Figure A” to “Special Figure E” are stopped and displayed, the control state becomes the special figure high probability normal figure high probability state after the jackpot game ends. When “Special Figure F” is stopped and displayed, the control state becomes a special figure low probability normal figure high probability state after the big hit game is ended. Further, when “Special Figure G” is stopped and displayed, the control state becomes a special figure high probability normal figure low probability state after the jackpot game ends.

  In the present embodiment, one type of stop symbol is prepared as a small hit symbol in addition to the big hit symbol. In the small hit game, the door member 2341 of the variable prize opening 234 is operated a predetermined number of times (for example, twice), and the door member 2341 maintains the open state for a maximum of 0.1 second per operation. In the case of opening the door member 2341 at a small hit, for example, when a game ball enters a predetermined number of balls (for example, 10 balls) in the first opening, or a predetermined amount of game value (a predetermined number of balls) is acquired. If it does, the second and subsequent releases will not be performed. During the small hit game, it shifts to the special figure low probability normal figure low probability state. The small hit is a hit where the control state does not change before and after the small hit game, and after the small hit game is finished, the control state returns to the control state before the start of the small hit game. “Special figure H” shown in FIG. 5A is a small hit symbol. In the present embodiment, the opening / closing mode (opening / closing frequency and opening time) of the variable prize opening 234 in the small hit game, and the opening / closing mode (opening) of the variable winning opening 234 in the big hit game to which the “Special Figure G” is stopped and displayed. The number of times and the opening time are substantially the same, but may be different, for example, at least one of the number of times of opening and the opening time may be different.

  Furthermore, in this embodiment, one type of stop symbol is prepared as a lost symbol. “Special Figure I” is a lost symbol.

  FIG.5 (b) shows an example of the stop symbol aspect of the special figure 2. FIG. In FIG. 5 (b), six types of special charts “Special Figure a” to “Special Figure f” are shown. Of these, five types of special charts are jackpot symbols (“Special Figure a” to “Special Figure f”). Fig. E "). “Special Figure a” is a 15R jackpot symbol, which is a 15R probable big hit symbol that can be expected to win in all of the 15 rounds, and “Special Figure b” is a 15R jackpot symbol, 15R-RUB symbol that can be expected to win in all of the rounds, and “Special Figure c” is a 15R jackpot symbol, and expects to win in 8 of the 15 rounds. On the other hand, it is a real 8R-RUB that cannot be expected in the remaining rounds, and "Special Figure d" is a 15R jackpot symbol, and it can be expected that 4 of the 15 rounds will have a ball. On the other hand, in the remaining rounds, it is a real 4R-RUB that cannot be expected to win a game, and “Special Figure e” is a 2R normal jackpot symbol.

  Furthermore, in this embodiment, one type of stop symbol is prepared as a lost symbol. "Special figure f" is a lost symbol.

  FIG. 5 (c) shows an example of a decorative design. There are 10 types of decoration patterns of the present embodiment: “Decoration 1” to “Decoration 10”. The first start port sensor detects that a ball has won the special figure 1 starting port 230 or the special figure 2 starting port 232, that is, the ball has entered the special figure 1 starting port 230, or the special figure 2 Each of the left symbol display area 208a, the middle symbol display area 208b, and the right symbol display area 208c of the decorative symbol display device 208 is provided on the condition that the second start port sensor detects that a ball has entered the start port 232. In the symbol display area, “decoration 1” → “decoration 2” → “decoration 3” →... “Decoration 9” → “decoration 10” → “decoration 1” →. “Change design of symbols”. That is, the decorative symbol display device 208 variably displays the decorative symbols separately from the first special symbol display device 212 and the second special symbol display device 214. And the stop symbol mode which is a combination of a decoration symbol is stopped and displayed.

  When notifying 5R probability big hit ("Special Figure B"), 5R normal big hit ("Special Figure F"), and 2R normal big hit ("Special Figure e"), the symbol display areas 208a to 208c are displayed with "Decoration". A combination of three decorative symbols having the same numbers other than “3-decoration 3-decoration 3” and “decoration 7-decoration 7-decoration 7” (for example, “decoration 1-decoration 1-decoration 1” or “decoration 1” Decoration 4-decoration 4-decoration 4 "etc.) is stopped and displayed. Further, in the case of notifying the 15R probability variation big hit (“special drawing A” and “special drawing a”), “decoration 3-decoration 3-decoration 3” or “decoration 7-decoration 7” is displayed in the symbol display areas 208a to 208c. -Decoration 7 "is stopped and displayed. Further, when 15R-RUB, 8R-RUB and 4R-RUB are notified, the left symbol display area 208a and the right symbol display area 208c are the same number of decorative symbols, and the middle symbol display area 208b A combination of decorative symbols that are decorative symbols (for example, “decoration 1-donor-decoration 1”, “decoration 4-donor-decoration-4”, etc.) is stopped and displayed. Further, when notifying the hidden probability change ("Special Figure G") or the small hit ("Special Figure H") that is a big hit of 2R, "Decoration 1-Decoration 2-Decoration" is displayed in the symbol display areas 208a to 208c. The combination of decorative symbols such as “3” is stopped. A combination of decorative patterns such as “decoration 1-decoration 2—decoration 3” may be referred to as a chance eye. In addition, when notifying the special symbol I or the special symbol f, the symbol display areas 208a to 208c may be combined with a combination of decorative symbols other than the combination of the decorative symbols described so far (for example, a variety of symbols). Eye) is stopped.

  Hereinafter, in the decorative symbol display device 208, the display from the start of the “decorative symbol variable display” to the stop symbol display of the decorative symbol may be referred to as a decorative symbol variable display. The variation display of the decorative symbols is performed under the control of the first sub-control unit 400.

  FIG.5 (d) shows an example of the usual stop pattern aspect. In the present embodiment, there are two types of stoppage display modes of “normal map A”, which is a winning symbol, and “general symbol B”, which is a missed symbol. Based on the fact that the gate sensor, which is a sphere detection sensor, detects that the sphere has passed through the general start port 228, the general display display device 210 illuminates all seven segments and the central one segment. Repeat the lighting and perform “variable display of ordinary figure” (ordinary figure fluctuation game). Then, after the fluctuation time elapses, one of the symbols of the “normal figure B” that is a symbol that is different from the “normal figure A” that is the winning symbol is stopped and displayed. Also in FIG. 5D, the white portions in the figure indicate the locations of the segments that are turned off, and the black portions indicate the locations of the segments that are turned on.

  Hereinafter, the display from the start of the “variable display of the normal figure” to the stop display of the stop pattern of the normal figure may be referred to as a normal variable display.

  Next, the main control unit power-on process executed by the CPU 304 of the main control unit 300 will be described with reference to FIG. 6A is a flowchart of the main control unit power-on process, FIG. 6B is a flowchart of the return activation process, and FIG. 6C is a flowchart of the initial activation process. As described above, the main control unit 300 is provided with the start signal output circuit (reset signal output circuit) 340 that outputs the start signal (reset signal) when the power is turned on. The CPU 304 of the basic circuit 302 to which this activation signal is input executes a main control unit main process according to a control program stored in advance in the ROM 306 after resetting by a reset interrupt.

  First, in step S101, stack pointer initialization is performed. In this stack pointer initial setting, a stack initial value is set (temporary setting) to the stack pointer (SP) of the CPU 304.

  Subsequently, in step S102, whether or not the low voltage signal is on, that is, the voltage value of the power source supplied from the power source control unit 660 to the main control unit 300 by the voltage monitoring circuit 338 is a predetermined value (this value). In the example, it is determined whether or not it is 9V) or higher. When the voltage value of the power source is less than the predetermined value (step S102: No), the process waits until the voltage value of the power source becomes equal to or higher than the predetermined value, and when the voltage value exceeds the predetermined value (step S102: Yes), Proceed to step S103.

  In step S103, internal register initialization is performed. In this internal register initial setting, the WDT 314 is activated, the access permission to the RAM 308, the numerical value that determines the execution period of the main control unit timer interrupt processing to be described later is set in each register of the timer circuit 312, and the main control unit 300 After initial processing of serial communication between the control unit 600 and the payout control unit 600 and processing such as setting the maximum value of hardware random numbers, the process proceeds to step S104.

  In step S104, it is determined whether or not the RAM clear signal transmitted when a store clerk or the like of the game shop operates the RAM clear switch 180 provided on the power supply board is on (indicating that there has been an operation). That is, it is determined whether or not the RAM clear is necessary. If the RAM clear signal is ON (the RAM clear is necessary) (step S104: Yes), the process goes to step S108 to set the basic circuit 302 to the initial state. Then, an initial activation process described later is executed. On the other hand, when the RAM clear signal is OFF (when the RAM clear is not necessary) (step S104: No), the process proceeds to step S105.

  In step S105, the power status information stored in the power status storage area provided in the RAM 308 is read, and it is determined whether or not the power status information is information indicating suspend. If the power status information is not information indicating suspend (step S105: No), the process proceeds to step S108 to set the basic circuit 302 to an initial state, and an initial activation process described later is executed. On the other hand, when the power status information is information indicating suspend (step S105: Yes), the process proceeds to step S106.

  In step S106, a checksum is calculated by adding all 1-byte data stored in a predetermined area (for example, all areas) of the RAM 308 to a 1-byte register having an initial value of 0, and the calculated check It is determined whether or not the result of the sum is a specific value (for example, 0) (whether or not the result of the checksum is normal). If the result of the checksum is a specific value (for example, 0) (if the result of the checksum is normal) (step S106: Yes), the process proceeds to step S107 to return to the state before the power interruption. Execute startup processing. On the other hand, when the result of the checksum is other than a specific value (for example, 0) (when the result of the checksum is abnormal) (No at Step S106), the process goes to Step S108 to set the pachinko machine 100 to the initial state. Then, an initial activation process described later is executed.

  Here, the return activation process will be described with reference to FIG. When the return activation process is started, in step S201, initial setting at the time of return activation is performed. Specifically, a process for setting information indicating “return start” in the power status information, a process for setting the magnetic detection abnormality flag to OFF, and a device error (an error flag due to magnetic detection, winning abnormality, etc.) Processing for clearing, processing for clearing the previous device error status, processing for clearing the device error status for security signals, and the like are performed.

  Subsequently, in step S202, the address after the storage area that was initially set in step S201 is set as an address for starting RAM clearing, and then the return activation process is terminated.

  In addition, in the return activation process, for example, the value of the stack pointer stored in the stack pointer save area provided in the RAM 308 at the time of power interruption is read and reset (mainly set) to the stack pointer. In addition, the value of each register stored in the register save area provided in the RAM 308 at the time of power interruption is read out and reset in each register, and then the interrupt permission is set. Thereafter, as a result of the CPU 304 executing the control program based on the reset stack pointer and registers, the pachinko machine 100 returns to the state when the power is turned off. In addition, a transmission information storage area is provided in the RAM 308 of the main control unit 300, and a power recovery command is set in this transmission information storage area. This power recovery command is a command indicating that the power has been restored to the state at the time of power-off, and is transmitted to the first sub-control unit 400 in a sub-command transmission process in a timer interrupt process of the main control unit 300 described later. .

  Next, the initial activation process will be described with reference to FIG. When the initial activation process is started, initial setting of soft random numbers is performed in step S301. Specifically, an initial setting of soft random numbers used in special drawing or ordinary drawing is performed.

  Subsequently, in step S302, the addresses after the storage area that was initially set in step S301 are set as addresses for starting the RAM clear, and then the initial activation process is terminated.

  In addition, in the initial activation process, for example, setting of prohibition of interrupt, setting of the stack initial value to the stack pointer (this setting), and the like are performed. Further, here, a normal return command is set in the transmission information storage area provided in the RAM 308 of the main control unit 300. This normal return command is a command indicating that the initial activation process of the main control unit 300 has been performed, and in the command setting transmission process (step S405) in the timer interrupt process of the main control unit 300, as with the power recovery command. Are transmitted to the first sub-control unit 400.

  As shown in FIG. 6A, after the return activation process or the initial activation process is executed, in step SS109, a RAM clear process is performed. In this RAM clear process, the storage area of the RAM 308 after the RAM clear start address set as described above is cleared (initialized).

  Subsequently, in step S110, a sub-control related activation setting is performed. In this sub-control-related activation setting, the activation waiting counter of the first sub-control unit 400 is set, and in the present embodiment, the sub-command is transmitted from the main control unit 300 to the first sub-control unit 400 three times. Therefore, processing for setting an initial value of the sub-control command continuous transmission counter stored in the RAM 308 is also performed.

  In step S111, output port setting is performed. In this output port setting, design data, firing position designation signal, error status signal, prize ball signal, universal signal, normal electric accessory (second special figure starting port 232, electric chew) operating signal, normal figure operation Medium signal, easy winning status signal, special signal per special signal, special signal small hit signal (limited to models equipped with small hits), special signal changing signal, special signal variable time reduction status signal, special electric accessory (variable prize) Mouth 234, 235, Attacker) Operation signal, Condition device operation signal, character continuous operation device operation signal, large winning port solenoid signal, normal electric accessory solenoid signal, design LED data, external terminal board signal, etc. Set the output port. Moreover, after finishing the process of this step S111, it transfers to the main control part main loop process. Here, the winning easy state may indicate a power support state.

  Next, a main control unit main loop process executed by the CPU 304 of the main control unit 300 will be described with reference to FIG. It is a flowchart of a main control part main loop process.

  When the main control unit 300 finishes executing the above main control power-on process, the main control unit main loop process starts to execute the main control unit main loop process. After setting, in step S402, the value of the counter of WDT 314 is cleared, and the time measurement by WDT 314 is restarted (restarted). In step S403, a basic random number initial value update process is performed (step S403). In this basic random number initial value updating process, an initial value generating random number counter for generating an initial value of the special figure determining random number counter and an initial value of the general figure determining random number counter is updated. The initial value generation random number counter can be updated by, for example, obtaining a value from the random number counter storage area provided in the RAM 308 and adding 1 to the obtained value when the numerical range that can be taken as the basic random number value is 0-20. To the original random number counter storage area. At this time, if the result of adding 1 to the acquired value is 21, 0 is stored in the original random number counter storage area.

  In step S404, after setting interrupt permission, in step S405, a subcommand transmission process is performed). In this sub-command transmission process, it is confirmed whether there is a command to be transmitted to the first sub-control unit 400. If there is a command to be transmitted, a process for transmitting the command is performed. In step S406, after performing other determination random number update processing, it progresses to step S407. In the other determination random number update processing, processing such as updating of the special figure variation time determination random number and the normal diagram variation time determination random number is performed.

  In step S407, it is determined whether or not the voltage value of the power source supplied from the power source control unit 660 to the main control unit 300 is equal to or higher than a predetermined value (for example, 9V). : Yes), the process returns to step S401 to continue the main control unit main loop process. In step S408, a power interruption process is performed. In this power interruption process, after setting the interrupt prohibition, the power status information is set to “suspend”. Further, a checksum is calculated by adding all 1-byte data stored in a predetermined area (for example, all areas) of the RAM 308 to a 1-byte register having an initial value of 0, and a predetermined storage of the RAM 308 is performed. Store in the area. Thereafter, after setting to prohibit access to the RAM 308, the HALT state is set.

  Next, a main control unit timer interrupt process executed by the CPU 304 of the main control unit 300 will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 8 is a flowchart of the main control unit timer interrupt process.

  The main control unit 300 includes a timer circuit 312 that generates a timer interrupt signal at a predetermined cycle (in this embodiment, about once every 2 ms). The main control unit timer interrupt is triggered by this timer interrupt signal. The process is started at a predetermined cycle. In step S501, a timer interrupt start process is performed. In this timer interrupt process, a process of temporarily saving each register value of the CPU 304 to the stack area is performed.

  In step S502 and step S503, basic random number initial value update processing and basic random number update processing are performed. In these basic random number initial value update processing and basic random number update processing, the value of the initial value generation random number counter performed in step S403 is updated, and then the special figure determination random number counter used in the main control unit 300 is used. The special figure variation time determination random number counter and the normal figure variation period determination random number counter are updated. For example, if the range of values that can be taken as a certain random number value is 0 to 100, the value is acquired from the random number counter storage area for generating the random number value provided in the RAM 308, and 1 is added to the acquired value. Stored in the random number counter storage area. At this time, if the result of adding 1 to the acquired value is 101, 0 is stored in the original random number counter storage area. If it is determined that the random number counter has made one round as a result of adding 1 to the acquired value, the value of the initial value generating random number counter corresponding to each random number counter is acquired and stored in the storage area of the random number counter. set. For example, a value obtained from a random number counter that fluctuates in a numerical value range of 0 to 100, and a result obtained by adding 1 to the obtained value is a previously set initial value stored in a predetermined initial value storage area provided in the RAM 308. When the value is equal to (for example, 7), the value is acquired as an initial value from the initial value generation random number counter corresponding to the random number counter, and is set in the random number counter. In order to determine this, the initial value set this time is stored in the above-described initial value storage area. In the present embodiment, a counter for acquiring the random value in FIG. 1 and a counter for acquiring the random value in FIG. 2 may be provided separately.

  In step S504, it is determined whether or not the interrupt function is limited (whether or not the first sub-control unit 400 is activated). If the interrupt function is limited (the first sub-control unit 400 is not activated). In the case (step S504: Yes), the process proceeds to step S519, and when the interrupt function is not limited (when the first sub-control unit 400 is activated) (step S504: No), the process proceeds to step S505. move on. Here, the interrupt function is limited means that the activation waiting counter of the first sub control unit 400 set in step S110 of the power-on process is not 0, that is, in step S504, the first If it is determined that the activation waiting counter of the sub-control unit 400 is 0, it is determined that the first sub-control unit 400 has been activated, and the process proceeds to step S505. If the first sub-control unit 400 is configured to be capable of bidirectional communication, the first sub-control unit 400 transmits a command for confirming whether or not the first sub-control unit 400 is activated. If a confirmation command is returned from 400, it may be determined that the first sub-control unit 400 has been activated. In step S505, it is determined whether or not a specific error (magnetic detection error in the present embodiment) is occurring. If a specific error is occurring (step S505: Yes), the process proceeds to step S520. If the specific error is not occurring (step S505: No), the process proceeds to step S506.

  In step S506, timer update processing is performed. In this timer update process, the time for displaying and changing the symbol on the first special symbol display device 212 is counted for the time for displaying the symbol on the first symbol display device 212. Special symbol 1 display symbol update timer for performing, special symbol 2 display symbol update timer for measuring the time for the symbol to be changed or stopped on the second special symbol display device 214, a predetermined winning effect time, a predetermined opening period Various timers including a timer for measuring a predetermined closing time, a predetermined end effect period, and the like are updated.

  In step S507, processing such as input port status update is performed. In this input port state update processing, etc., the special figure starting port (first special figure starting port 230, second special figure starting port 232), general map starting port 228, and out port 240 via the input port of the I / O 310. The RAM 308 monitors whether or not signals relating to switches such as the first variable winning opening (first attacker) 234, the second variable winning opening (second attacker) 235, and the winning opening (general winning opening 226) are input. Store in the signal state storage area.

  If the detection signal of the sphere detection sensor is described as an example, information on the presence / absence of the detection signal of each sphere detection sensor detected in the timer interruption process (about 4 ms before) is stored in the RAM 308 for each sphere detection sensor. This information is read out from the previous detection signal storage area partitioned and stored in the RAM 308 in the previous detection signal storage area partitioned for each sphere detection sensor, and the previous timer interrupt processing (about 2 ms before) ) Is read from the current detection signal storage area provided for each sphere detection sensor in the RAM 308, and this information is read out from the previous detection signal storage area described above. To remember. Further, the detection signal of each sphere detection sensor detected this time is stored in the above-described current detection signal storage area. Further, when it is determined that the winning at the start opening and the winning opening is abnormal, the information stored in the signal state storage area as being invalid is deleted.

  In step S508, a winning opening winning process is performed. In this winning award winning process, the information on the presence or absence of the detection signal of each sphere detection sensor stored in each storage area of the previous detection signal storage area, the previous detection signal storage area, and the current detection signal storage area is compared. It is determined whether or not the information on the presence or absence of detection signals for the past three times in each sphere detection sensor matches the winning determination pattern information.

  This main control unit timer interruption process that is repeatedly started at a very short interval of about 2 ms is started several times while one game ball passes through one ball detection sensor. For this reason, every time the main control unit timer interruption process is started, in the above-described step S507, a detection signal indicating that the same game ball has passed the same ball detection sensor is confirmed. As a result, a detection signal indicating that the same game ball has passed the same ball detection sensor is stored in each of the detection signal storage area, the previous detection signal storage area, and the current detection signal storage area. That is, when the game ball starts to pass through the ball detection sensor, there is no detection signal before, a previous detection signal, and a current detection signal. In the present embodiment, in consideration of erroneous detection and noise of the sphere detection sensor, it is determined that there has been a prize when the detection is continued for a predetermined time (for example, 100 μs) after the detection signal is input. Note that if the detection signal is stored twice consecutively after no detection signal, it may be determined that there has been a prize.

  The ROM 306 of the main control unit 300 stores winning determination pattern information (in the present embodiment, information indicating that there is no previous detection signal, that there is a previous detection signal, and that there is a current detection signal). In this step S507, information on the presence or absence of detection signals for the past three times in each sphere detection sensor is predetermined winning determination pattern information (in this embodiment, no previous detection signal, previous detection signal, current detection signal present). In the case of the general winning port 226, the variable winning port 234, the first special figure starting port 230, and the second special figure starting port 232, or the ordinary drawing starting port 228. Is determined to have passed. In other words, it is determined that a prize has been awarded to the winning ports 226 and 234 and the starting ports 230, 232, and 228.

  For example, when the information on the presence / absence of the detection signals for the past three matches with the above-described winning determination pattern information in the general winning opening sensor for detecting the winning at the general winning opening 226, there is a winning at the general winning opening 226. If the information on the presence / absence of detection signals for the past three times does not match the above-described winning determination pattern information, the subsequent general winnings are performed. The process branches to the subsequent process without performing the process associated with winning the prize to the mouth 226.

  Note that the ROM 306 of the main control unit 300 stores winning determination clear pattern information (in this embodiment, information indicating that there is a detection signal before the previous time, no previous detection signal, and no current detection signal). After it is determined that there has been a single win, it is not determined that there has been a win until the information on the presence or absence of detection signals for the past three times matches the winning determination clear pattern information in each ball detection sensor, and the winning determination is cleared. If it matches the pattern information, it is next determined whether or not it matches the winning determination pattern information.

  In the winning opening winning process in step S508, a winning opening counter updating process is also performed. In this winning opening counter updating process, when there is a winning at the winning opening 226, the first variable winning opening 234, the second variable winning opening 235, the special figure 1 starting opening 230, and the special drawing 2 starting opening 232, the RAM 308 The value of the winning ball number storage area provided for each winning opening or each starting port is read, and 1 is added to set the original winning ball number storage area.

  In the winning opening winning process in step S508, a winning acceptance process is also performed. In this winning acceptance process, whether or not there has been a winning at the first special figure starting port 230, the second special figure starting port 232, the ordinary drawing starting port 228, the first variable winning port 234, and the second variable winning port 235, The determination is made using the determination result whether or not the winning determination pattern information matches. When a winning is made at the first special figure starting port 230 and the corresponding reserved number storage area provided in the RAM 308 is not full, the value is stored in the special counter value storage register of the counter circuit 318. And a value from the random number counter for generating the special figure 1 random value as a special figure 1 random value and storing it in the corresponding random value storage area.

  Further, when a winning is made to the second special figure starting port 232 and the corresponding holding number storage area provided in the RAM 308 is not full, the value is read from the winning counter value storage register of the counter circuit 318. Obtained as a random number value, obtains a value from the random number counter for generating the special figure 2 random value as a special figure 2 random value, and stores it in the corresponding random value storage area. If there is a win at the general figure starting port 228 and the corresponding reserved number storage area provided in the RAM 308 is not full, the value is obtained as a normal figure winning random number value from the random number counter for generating the normal figure winning random number value. Store in the corresponding random value storage area. When a winning is made at the first variable winning opening 234, information indicating that a ball has entered the first variable winning opening 234 is stored in the winning storage area for the first variable winning opening. The same applies to the second variable prize winning opening 235. In addition, when the random number of a special figure is acquired, special figure prefetching processing (presence / absence judgment, symbol, prefetch lottery of variation time) is also performed.

  In step S509, a prize-related error check process is performed. In the prize-related error check process, a prize-related abnormality is confirmed and monitored, and a process for setting an abnormality according to the result of the process is performed. Some switches may not detect an abnormality. In step S510, an out switch input update process is performed. In this out switch input update process, the number of game balls that have passed through the sensor provided in the out port 240 is detected and updated. The input result of this out switch is mainly used for production.

  In step S511, serial command management processing is performed. In the serial command management process, a process of receiving a command from the payout control unit 600, a process of transmitting a command to the payout control unit 600, and the like are performed. In addition, as a command which the main control part 300 transmits to the payout control part 600, the communication confirmation command (communication state with the payout control part 600) transmitted after progress of the starting waiting time of the 1st sub control part 400 after power activation is passed. And a command for notifying the starting method of the main control unit 300 (initial start and return start), and a prize ball number command for instructing payout of game balls for designated prize balls.

  The command received by the main control unit 300 from the payout control unit 600 includes a communication confirmation return command (response command indicating that the payout control unit 600 has received a command from the main control unit 300), a test test signal Commands that contain information on the occurrence of commands (prize ball signal output request), information on the occurrence of payout errors (including no errors), and prize ball payout operation status commands (whether or not award balls are being paid out) And a command indicating that the payout is in progress (instructing the first sub-control unit 400 to turn on / off the LED).

  Next, in step S512, special figure state update processing for special figure 1 and special figure 2 is performed. The special figure state update process executes one of the following eight processes according to the special figure process state. The special figure state update process will be described later with reference to FIG.

  In step S513, a normal state update process is performed. This normal state update process performs one of a plurality of processes corresponding to the normal state. For example, in the normal state update process in the middle of the normal symbol display (the above-described general symbol display symbol update timer value is 1 or more), the 7-segment LED constituting the normal symbol display device 210 is repeatedly turned on and off. Turns off drive control. By performing this control, the normal symbol display device 210 performs a usual fluctuation display (ordinary figure fluctuation game).

  Also, in the normal state update process at the timing when the normal symbol change display time has elapsed (the timing when the value of the general symbol display symbol update timer has changed from 1 to 0), if the hit flag is on, the win symbol is displayed. The normal symbol display device 210 is controlled so that the 7-segment LED constituting the normal symbol display device 210 is turned on / off, and when the hit flag is off, the normal symbol display device 210 is configured to be in the off symbol display mode. 7 segment LED on / off drive control is performed.

  Further, the RAM 308 of the main control unit 300 is provided with a setting area for performing various settings in various processes, not limited to the normal state update process. Here, the above-described lighting / extinguishing drive control is performed, and the setting area is set to indicate that the normal stop display is being performed. By performing this control, the normal symbol display device 210 performs a fixed display of one of the winning symbols and the off symbol. After that, information indicating the stop period is set in a storage area of a normal stop time management timer provided in the RAM 308 in order to maintain the display for a predetermined stop display period (for example, for 500 ms). With this setting, the symbol that has been confirmed and displayed is stopped and displayed for a predetermined period, and the player is notified of the result of the normal game.

  Further, if the result of the usual figure variable game is a hit, the usual figure hit flag is turned on as will be described later. When the usual figure hit flag is on, in the usual figure state update process at the timing when the predetermined stop display period ends (when the usual figure stop time management timer value changes from 1 to 0), While the normal operation is set in the setting area, the bellows member 2321 is opened to a solenoid (332) for opening and closing the bellows member 2321 of the second special figure starting port 232 for a predetermined opening period (for example, 2 seconds). And a signal indicating the open period is set in the storage area of the blade open time management timer provided in the RAM 308.

  Further, in the normal state update process that starts at the timing when the predetermined opening period ends (the timing when the value of the blade opening time management timer changes from 1 to 0), during the predetermined closing period (for example, 500 msec), the tongue member A signal for holding the tongue member 2321 in the closed state is output to the open / close drive solenoid 332 of 2321, and information indicating the closing period is set in the storage area of the blade closing time management timer provided in the RAM 308.

  Further, in the normal state update process that starts at the timing when the predetermined closing period ends (the timing when the value of the blade closing time management timer changes from 1 to 0), in the setting area of the RAM 308, the normal state is not operating is set. To do. Furthermore, if the result of the usual figure fluctuation game is out, the usual figure out flag is turned on as will be described later. When the off-normal flag is on, the normal state update process at the timing when the predetermined stop display period described above ends (the timing at which the normal stop time management timer value changes from 1 to 0) In the setting area of the RAM 308, normal operation inactive is set. In the general state update process in the case where the general map is not operating, nothing is done and the process proceeds to the next step S514.

  In step S513, a general drawing related lottery process is also performed. In this general map-related lottery process, the open / close control of the general map variable game and the second special map start port 232 is not performed (the state of the general map is not in operation), and the pending general map variable game is not held. When the number is 1 or more, it is decided whether to win or not to win the result of the variable figure game by random lottery based on the random number value stored in the random number value storage area. When the winning judgment is made and the winning is made, the winning flag provided in the RAM 308 is set to ON. If unsuccessful, turn off the winning flag. Regardless of the result of the hit determination, next, the value of the random number counter for generating the normal figure timer random value is acquired as the normal figure timer random number value, and a plurality of fluctuation times are obtained based on the acquired general figure timer random number value. One time is selected for variably displaying the normal map on the general map display device 210, and this variable display time is stored as a normal map variable display time in a general map variable time storage area provided in the RAM 308. In addition, the number of pending general figure variable games is stored in the usual figure pending number storage area provided in the RAM 308, and from the number of pending custom figure variable games each time a hit determination is made. The value obtained by subtracting 1 is re-stored in the usual figure number-of-holds storage area. Also, the random number value used for the hit determination is deleted.

  In step S514, device monitoring processing is performed. In this device monitoring process, the signal states of the various sensors stored in the signal state storage area in step S507 are read, the presence or absence of a predetermined error is monitored, and if a predetermined error is detected, the first sub-control unit 400 Device information indicating the presence or absence of an error is set in transmission information to be transmitted. Further, various solenoids 332 are driven to control the opening / closing of the second special figure starting port 232 and the variable winning ports 234, 235, and the normal symbol display device 210, the first special special unit via the display circuits 324, 326, 330. Display data to be output to the symbol display device 212, the second special symbol display device 214, various state display units 328, and the like is set in the output port of the I / O 310.

  In step S515, external output signal management processing is performed. In the external output signal management processing, processing for preparing to transmit an external terminal board signal is performed. In step S516, a subcommand management process is performed. In this sub-command management process, preparations for transmitting various commands to the first sub-control unit 400 are made. The output schedule information (subcommand) to be transmitted to the first sub-control unit 400 is composed of 16 bits, for example, and bit 15 is strobe information (indicating that data is set when ON), Bits 11 to 14 are command types (in this embodiment, basic command, symbol variation start command, symbol variation stop command, winning effect start command, end effect start command, jackpot start command, jackpot round number designation command, power recovery command, Information that can specify the type of command such as a RAM clear command), bits 0 to 10 are constituted by command data (predetermined information corresponding to the command type).

  Specifically, the strobe information is turned on and off in the command transmission process described above. If the command type is a symbol variation start command, the command data includes information indicating the value of the 15R jackpot flag, the value of the special symbol probability variation flag, the timer number selected in the special symbol related lottery process, and the like. In the case of a change stop command, the value of the 15R jackpot flag, the special figure probability change flag, etc. are included, and in the case of the winning effect command and the end effect start command, the value of the special figure probability change flag, etc. are included. In the case of the jackpot round number designation command, the value of the special figure probability variation flag, the jackpot round number, and the like are included. When the command type indicates a basic command, the device information in the command data, the presence / absence of winning at the first special figure starting port 230, the presence / absence of winning at the second special figure starting port 232, the variable winning ports 234, 235 Includes the presence or absence of a prize. In the present embodiment, when there is a prize at the first variable prize slot 234 and the second variable prize slot 235, a big prize slot prize command is set.

  In the rotation start setting transmission process described above, the command data stored in the RAM 308 is selected by the 15R jackpot flag value, the special figure probability variation flag value, the special figure 1 related lottery process, and the special figure 2 related lottery process. The information indicating the timer number, the number of the first special figure variable game or the second special figure variable game held, etc. is set. In the rotation stop setting transmission process described above, information indicating the value of the 15R big hit flag, the value of the special figure probability variation flag, etc. stored in the RAM 308 is set in the command data. In the winning effect setting transmission process described above, the command control data stored in the RAM 308, the effect control information output to the decorative symbol display device 208, various lamps 418, and the speaker 120 during the winning effect period, the special figure probability variation flag Information indicating the value, the number of the first special figure variable game or the second special figure variable game being held, etc. is set.

  Further, in the above-described end effect setting transmission process, the command control data stored in the RAM 308, effect control information output to the decorative symbol display device 208, various lamps 418, and the speaker 120 during the effect standby period, the special figure probability variation Information indicating the value of the flag, the number of the first special figure variable game or the second special figure variable game held, etc. is set. In the above-described large winning opening release setting transmission process, the number of big hits stored in the RAM 308 in the command data, the value of the special figure probability variation flag, the pending first special figure variation game or the second special figure variation game is stored. Set information such as number. In the above-mentioned big winning opening closing setting transmission process, the number of big hits stored in the RAM 308 in the command data, the value of the special figure probability variation flag, the pending first special figure variation game or the second special figure variation game is stored. Set information such as number. In step S516, a general command special figure hold increase process is also performed. In this general command special figure pending increase process, special figure identification information (information showing special figure 1 or special figure 2) stored in the transmission information storage area of the RAM 308, command notice information (preliminary notice information, false) Set either advance notice information or no advance notice information).

  In the first sub-control unit 400, it is possible to determine the production control according to the change of the game control in the main control unit 300 by the command type included in the received output schedule information, and it is included in the output schedule information. Based on the information of the command data, the contents of effect control can be determined.

  In step S517, display display setting processing is performed. In this display display setting process, the display (LED lighting pattern) such as “Number of reserved balls, combination of symbols”, status (during electric support or non-electric support), right-handed state, etc. Performs processing to set data to be output. In step S518, output management processing is performed. In this output management process, a process of outputting a control signal set in each process to a solenoid or LED, a process of transmitting a prepared command to the first sub-control unit 400 or the payout control unit 600, and the like are performed.

  In step S519, a sub control activation waiting wait process is performed. In this sub-control activation wait process, in order to wait for the first sub-control unit 400 to start and become communicable, the sub-control activation wait counter is decremented by 1, and this activation wait counter becomes 0. If so, preparations for transmitting a predetermined command are made. Note that the predetermined command includes one or more commands such as a power-on command and a command related to the payout control unit 600 (for example, a command indicating that all errors have been canceled, a lower pan full error) A command indicating that there is a payout ball shortage error, a main control communication error command (a command indicating that communication with the payout control unit 600 is in an abnormal state), a CR unit unconnected error There are a command indicating that is generated, a firing position command (a command for notifying the firing position according to the state), and the like.

  In step S520, a timer interrupt end process is performed. In this timer interrupt end process, the value of each register temporarily saved in step S501 is set in each original register, interrupt permission is set, etc., and then the process returns to the main control unit main loop process. .

  Next, with reference to FIG. 9, the special figure state update process (step S512) in the main control unit timer interrupt process will be described. FIG. 9 is a flowchart of the special figure state update process.

  In step S601, the special figure processing state address is acquired and saved, and in the next step S602, processing corresponding to the value indicated by the special figure processing state stored in the RAM 308 is executed. Specifically, here, based on the value indicated by the special figure processing state, the special figure related lottery process shown in FIG. 10A, the process during symbol variation shown in FIG. 11, and the special figure shown in FIG. The display confirmation weight process, the hit start weight process shown in FIG. 13 (a), the special electric charge operation process shown in FIG. 14, the special electric charge remaining ball detection process shown in FIG. 17, the special electric charge operation end process shown in FIG. One of the hit end display weight processing shown is executed.

  In step S603, the easy winning status is set to ON. In step S604, the state change of the special figure processing state is determined. In the next step S605, the presence / absence of the state change of the special figure processing state (change in the value indicated by the special figure processing state) is determined. When there is no state change (when the value indicated by the special figure processing state has not changed) (step S605: No), the special figure state update process is terminated, and there is a change in the special figure processing state. If this is the case (if the value indicated by the special figure processing state has changed) (step S605: Yes), the process proceeds to step S606.

  In step S606, it is determined whether or not the special figure processing state is set to the “waiting for change” state. If applicable (step S606: Yes), the process proceeds to step S608, and if not applicable (step S606). : No), the process proceeds to step S607. In step S607, it is determined whether or not the special figure processing state is set to the “hit start display wait state”. If applicable (step S607: Yes), the process proceeds to step S608. Step S607: No), the special figure state update process is terminated.

  In step S608, a sub-command transmission request is set (in this embodiment, after setting a transmission request for a gaming state command including a special drawing and a normal gaming state, a firing position including information on whether or not the player is in a right-handed state. After the command transmission request is set), the special figure state update process is terminated. The order of sub-command transmission requests is not limited to this example, and the order of transmission requests may be reversed, or a plurality of command transmission requests may be collectively performed in one process.

  Next, the special figure state update process will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 10A is a flowchart of the special figure related lottery process executed in the special figure state update process.

  This special figure related lottery process is a process that is called and executed when the information set in the special figure processing state indicates “waiting for change” in step S602 of the special figure state updating process.

  In step S701 of the special figure related lottery process, the number of special figure 2 reserved balls stored in the RAM 308 is acquired. In the next step S702, it is determined whether or not the acquired special figure 2 reserved ball number is 0. In the case of (when there is no special figure 2 variable game hold) (step S702: Yes), the process proceeds to step S703, and when other than 0 (when there is special figure 2 variable game hold) (step S702: No), the process proceeds to step S705 to execute the process related to the special figure 2.

  In step S703, the special figure 1 reserved ball number stored in the RAM 308 is acquired. In the next step S704, it is determined whether or not the acquired special figure 1 reserved ball number is 0. When there is no variable game hold (step S704: Yes), the special drawing related lottery process is terminated, and when it is other than 0 (when there is special figure 1 variable game hold) (step S704: No). In order to execute the processing relating to the special figure 1, the process proceeds to step S705.

  In step S705, when the process related to special figure 2 is executed, the value of the number of reserved special figure 2 balls stored in the RAM 308 is decremented by one. When the process related to special figure 1 is executed, the process is executed in the RAM 308. The stored special figure 1 holding ball number is decremented by one. In step S706, special figure random number transfer processing is executed. In this special figure random number transfer process, when the process related to special figure 2 is executed, the random number value stored in the random number storage area corresponding to the reservations 2 to 4 in special figure 2 is stored in 3 is shifted to the random number storage area corresponding to 3, and when the random number storage area corresponding to the hold 4 in FIG. The random number value stored in the random number storage area to be shifted to the random number storage area corresponding to the hold 1 to 3 in FIG. 1 and the random number storage area corresponding to the hold 4 in FIG. 1 is cleared. Thus, the game machine (pachinko machine) in this embodiment is a special figure 2 priority change machine. In addition, each of FIG. 2 and FIG. 1 can store up to 4 holds.

  In step S707, a lottery process per special figure is performed. Although details will be described later, in this special drawing lottery process, whether or not the special figure 2 variable game (or special figure 1 variable game) is successful is determined. In step S708, a display symbol lottery process is performed. In the display symbol lottery process, the special symbol 2 symbol determination table (or the special symbol 1 symbol determination table) is referred to, and the second special symbol is determined based on the result of the lottery processing per special symbol in step S707 and the random number value. The lottery of the special figure display symbol data to be stopped and displayed on the display device 214 (or the first special figure display device 212) is performed.

  FIG. 21A shows an example of the special figure 1 symbol determination table, and FIG. 21B shows an example of the special figure 2 symbol determination table. When the display symbol data of the special figure 1 is determined in the display symbol lottery process in the step S708, the special symbol 1 lottery process in the step S707 is referred to with reference to the special figure 1 symbol determination table shown in FIG. Based on the result of the determination in FIG. 1 and the numerical range of the random number value, the display symbol data of the special figure 1 is selected. In this embodiment, when the success / failure result of special figure 1 is a big hit, any one is selected from special figures A to G, and when the success / failure determination result of special figure 1 is a small hit, When the special figure H is selected and the result of the special figure 1 is lost, the special figure I is selected.

  When determining the display symbol data of the special figure 2 in the display symbol lottery process in the step S708, the special symbol lottery process in the step S707 is referred to with reference to the special symbol 2 symbol determination table shown in FIG. On the basis of the result of the determination of special figure 2 and the numerical value range of the random number, the display symbol data of special figure 2 is selected. In the present embodiment, when the result of special figure 2 is a big hit, any one of special figures a to e is selected, and when the result of special figure 2 is lost, a special figure is selected. f is selected. After the symbol to be displayed is determined, symbol data to be displayed on the special symbol display device is set. The symbol data set here is acquired again in the display device display setting process (step S517) in the main control unit timer interrupt process, and is controlled to be displayed on the special figure display device. After the symbol data is set, the determined symbol (symbol type information) is determined. If the symbol data is lost, the process ends.

  When the determined symbol (symbol type information) is a big hit or a small hit symbol, a process for setting data to be set at the end of the hit (data setting process after the hit is completed) is performed. The after-hit data setting process is a process for setting a gaming state set after the win according to the symbol determined by the lottery.

  Returning to FIG. 10A, in step S709, a special figure fluctuation time lottery process is performed. In this special figure variation time lottery process, a variation time table (not shown) is referred to, and the result of special figure 2 (or special figure 1) by the lottery process per special figure in step S707 and the numerical value range of the random number value. Then, after selecting the special figure variation time timer, the special figure related lottery process is terminated.

<Lottery processing per special figure>
Next, with reference to FIG. 10B, the lottery process per special figure (step S707) will be described. FIG. 10B is a flowchart of the lottery process per special figure (step S707) in the special figure-related lottery process.

  In step S801 of the special figure lottery process, the lottery per special figure is performed with reference to the determination table. In the present embodiment, both the special figure 1 and the special figure 2 are used for the lottery per special figure using the same success / failure determination table, but separate special determination tables for the special figure 1 and the special figure 2 are provided. You may make it prepare.

  FIG. 20A is a diagram showing an example of the high / failure determination probability table, and FIG. 20B is a diagram showing an example of the low / probability determination probability table. In the lottery process per special figure in step S801, if the special figure 1 is determined to be successful, if the special figure is in a high probability state, the special determination high probability table shown in FIG. In the case of the low-probability state, the failure determination low-probability table shown in FIG. Then, based on the numerical value range indicated by the referenced success / failure determination table and the acquired random number value, the determination result of the special figure 1 variable game is determined. In the present embodiment, in the case of the special figure 1 variable game, the big hit, the small hit or the loss is selected as the determination result.

  Similarly, when determining whether or not the special figure 2 is determined in the lottery processing per special figure in step S801, if the special figure is in a high probability state, refer to the high probability table for determining whether or not it is shown in FIG. In the case of the special figure low probability state, the failure determination low probability table shown in FIG. Then, based on the numerical range indicated by the referenced determination table and the obtained random number value, the determination result of the special figure 2 variable game is selected. In the present embodiment, in the case of the special figure 2 variable game, the big hit or the loss is selected as the determination result.

  Returning to FIG. 10B, in step S802, it is determined whether or not the determination result of lottery per special drawing (lottery result) in step S801 is other than “big hit”. If it is not “big hit” (step S802). : Yes), the process proceeds to step S803, and in the case of “big hit” (step S802: No), the process proceeds to step S804. In step S803, a special figure small hit lottery process is performed using the small hit determination table.

  FIG. 20C shows an example of the small hit determination table. In the special figure small hit lottery process in step S803, the special figure small hit determination table is referred to, based on the numerical range indicated by the referenced small hit determination table and the acquired random number value. Select the result of whether or not to win a small lottery. In the present embodiment, when the determination result of lottery per special figure (lottery result) is special figure 1, a small hit is selected with a probability of 2000/65536 as the result of determination of lottery, and a loss is obtained with a probability of 63536/65536. Although selected, if the determination result of lottery per special figure (lottery result) is special figure 2, the small win is not selected.

  Returning to FIG. 10B, in step S804, based on the determination result of lottery per special figure (lottery result) in step S801 and the result of lottery determination (lottery result) of special drawing small lottery in step S803. Is set to any one of “big hit”, “small hit”, and “lack”. In the next step S805, information indicating “special figure changing” is set in the special figure processing state. Thereby, in step S602 of the next special symbol state update process, the symbol variation process shown in FIG. 11 is called and executed.

  In step S806, the value of the special figure determination random number stored in the RAM 308 is cleared. In the next step S807, a subcommand (special figure change start command) transmission request is set. In the next step S808, the special figure is displayed. After setting the basic signal information (for testing) indicating that the change is in progress (2) (or special figure 1), the lottery process per special figure is terminated.

  Next, with reference to FIG. 11, the symbol variation processing executed in the special symbol state update processing will be described. FIG. 11 is a flowchart of the process during symbol variation executed in the special figure state update process. This symbol changing process is a process that is called and executed when the information set in the special figure processing state indicates “special figure changing” in step 602 of the special figure state update process.

  In step S901 of the process during symbol variation, the special figure operation type (special figure 1 or special figure 2) stored in the RAM 308 is acquired, and the address of the update target RAM is calculated according to this special figure operation type. .

  In step S902, by referring to the address destination calculated in step S901, the special figure fluctuation time timer set in step S709 of the special figure related lottery process is acquired, and whether the special figure fluctuation time timer is 0 or not. Determine whether or not. As a result of the determination, when the special figure fluctuation time timer is 0 (when the set special figure fluctuation time has elapsed) (step S902: Yes), the process proceeds to step S905, and when it is not 0 (set special figure fluctuation time) If (No has passed) (step S902: No), the process proceeds to step S903. In step S903, it is determined whether or not it is the update timing of the special symbol display symbol. If it is not the update timing (step S903: Yes), the symbol variation processing is terminated, and if it is the update timing (step S903: No). ), The process proceeds to step S904. In step S904, after the special symbol display symbol data is updated, the symbol variation processing is terminated.

  By this special figure display symbol data updating process, in the case of special figure 1, the first special figure display device 212 is used to repeat the lighting of all seven segments and the lighting of one central segment. In the case of Special Figure 2, the second special symbol display device 214 is used to repeat the lighting of all seven segments and the lighting of one central segment. "Change display of special figure 2" is performed.

  In step S905, the special figure display symbol data selected in step S708 of the special figure related lottery process is acquired and set, and in the next step S906, information indicating "special figure display weight state" is set in the special figure processing state. To do. Thereby, in step S602 of the next special figure state update process, the special figure display confirmation weight process shown in FIG. 12 is called and executed.

  In step S907, the display symbol update data is cleared, and in the next step S908, basic signal information (for testing) indicating that the fluctuation of special figure 2 (or special figure 1) is stopped is set, and the next step In S909, the symbol determination frequency information signal stored in the RAM 308 is set to ON, so that the symbol determination frequency information signal is output from the external terminal board 349.

  In step S910, a transmission request for a subcommand (special symbol variation stop command) is set, and in the next step S911, symbol type information stored in the RAM 308 (the symbol of the special symbol 1 shown in FIG. 5A), or After obtaining the special figure display confirmation timer indicating the time for maintaining the special figure stop display based on the symbol type information, the special figure display confirmation timer is set. The process during change is terminated.

If it has not elapsed (step S1001: Yes), the special figure display confirmation weighting process is terminated. If not (the special figure display confirmation time has elapsed) (step S1001: No), step S1002 Proceed to

  In step S1002, the symbol determination number information signal set in step S909 of the symbol variation processing is cleared (set to OFF), and in the next step S1003, the special symbol variation time shortening status at the time of symbol stop (special symbol variation game) (In this embodiment, a status indicating any one of the normal gaming state, the probability-changing gaming state, and the short-time gaming state) is saved in the RAM 308 as a saved special figure variation time reduction status described later.

  In step S1004, the success / failure determination type set in step S804 of the special drawing related lottery process is acquired. In the next step S1005, it is determined whether or not the acquired determination result type is “big hit”. As a result of this determination, if the success / failure determination type is “big hit” (step S1005: Yes), the process proceeds to step S1010. If the correct / failure determination type is other than “big hit” (step S1005: No), the process proceeds to step S1006. Then, the number of time reductions in the special figure stored in the RAM 308 is updated (one time reduction number is subtracted).

  In step S1007, the success / failure determination type set in step S804 of the special drawing related lottery process is acquired. In the next step S1008, it is determined whether or not the acquired determination result type is “small hit”. As a result of this determination, if the determination type is “small hit” (step S1008: Yes), the process proceeds to step S1010. If the determination type is other than “small hit” (step S1008: No), step In step S1009, information indicating “waiting for change” is set in the special figure processing state. Thereby, in step S602 of the next special figure state update process, the special figure related lottery process shown in FIG. 10A is called and executed.

  In step S1010, basic signal information (for test) indicating the special symbol winning / not-accepting type and symbol type is set, and in the next step S1011, RAM clearing in the designated range is executed. Here, the winning / not-accepting type, the number of times of operation of the special electric character, the number of winnings of the big prize opening (the first variable winning port 234, the second variable winning port 235), the operation pattern of the special electric character, the operating state of the special electric character, the total number of winnings per hit, In addition to clearing information related to a prize winning abnormality at the big prize opening, winning end display timer type, etc., at the time of big winning, further clear the easy winning status and special figure status.

  In step S1012, information indicating a “hit start display wait state” is set as the special figure processing state. Thereby, in step S602 of the next special figure state update process, the hit start wait process shown in FIG. 13A is called and executed. In step S1013, the winning total winning number is set to 0, and in the next step S1014, a transmission request for a subcommand (winning start command) is set.

  In step S1015, symbol type information is set. In step S1016, a hit start display timer is set according to the symbol type information set in step S1015. In step S1017, according to the symbol type information set in step S1015. After setting other information signal setting types, the special figure display determination wait process is terminated.

  Next, with reference to FIG. 13A, the hit start weight process executed in the special figure state update process will be described. FIG. 13A is a flowchart of the hit start wait process executed in the special figure state update process. The winning start weight process is a process that is called and executed when the information set in the special figure processing state indicates the “winning start display weight state” in step S602 of the special figure state updating process. .

  In step S1101 of the winning start weight process, it is determined whether or not the winning start display timer set in step S1016 of the special figure display confirmation weight process is larger than 0. If not (step S1101: Yes), the winning start weight process is terminated. If not (when the special figure display confirmation time has elapsed) (step S1101: No), the process proceeds to step S1102.

  In step S1102, after executing a special power combination release process described later, the hit start wait process is terminated.

  Next, the special electric power releasing process (step S1102) in the hit start weight process will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 13B is a flowchart of the special power release process (step S1102) in the hit start weight process.

  In step S1201 of the special power combination release process, information indicating “special power combination operation state” is set in the special figure processing state. Thereby, in step S602 of the next special figure state update process, the special electric utility operation process shown in FIG. 14 is called and executed.

  In step S1202, the value of the number of winning prizes in the RAM 308 (hereinafter sometimes referred to as “main control unit winning counter”) and the operation state of the special electric character are cleared, and in the next step S1203, the subcommand (special electric power) is cleared. Set the request to release the role release command. Thereby, the first sub-control unit 400 can recognize that the round has started. Note that the main control unit winning counter that is cleared in step S1202 is cleared only of the value of the main control unit winning counter corresponding to the variable winning port to be opened of the first variable winning port 234 and the second variable winning port 235. The value of the main control unit winning counter corresponding to the variable winning opening that is not opened remains maintained. Note that any main control unit winning counter value may be cleared. In step S1204, the symbol type information set in step S1015 of the special symbol display confirmation weight process is acquired. In the next step S1205, a special electric actor action pattern data table is set based on the acquired symbol type information. For example, as shown in FIGS. 16 (a-1) to 16 (a-3), the number of special electric role operation pattern data tables is prepared for the number of types of special figures that are big hits and small hits. FIG. 16 shows only a part of them as an example. The special electric character operation pattern data table stores special electric character operation data indicating opening / closing patterns of the first variable winning award port 234 and the second variable winning award port 235 for each round. As shown in FIG. 15 (b-1) to FIG. 15 (b-3), the special electric combination operation data includes information indicating the open / closed state of the first variable winning port 234 or the second variable winning port 235 (open timer pattern, One or a plurality of timer pattern data including a closed timer pattern) and information on a time for maintaining the open state or the closed state (special power combination opening / closing timer) are stored. As a result, various variations can be given to the opening / closing operations of the first variable prize winning opening 234 and the second variable prize winning opening 235 in one round.

  For example, in the big hit game in the case of big hit in the special figure A, as shown in FIG. 16 (a-1), the special electric power operation data 1 shown in FIG. After the first variable winning opening 234 (second variable winning opening 235) is opened for 29500 ms by the opening timer pattern 2, the first variable winning opening 234 is closed by the closing timer pattern 3 and the operation is finished. Is done. In the present embodiment, the first variable winning opening 234 and the second variable winning opening 235 are configured to be alternately opened for each round.

  Also, in the big hit game in the case of big hit in the special figure C, as shown in FIG. 16 (a-2), the above-mentioned special electric charge operation is performed in the 1R to 4R, 6R to 8R, 10R to 15R. While the above-described operation is performed with reference to data 1, the opening and closing of the first variable winning opening 234 is performed with reference to the special electric charge operation data 4 shown in FIG. Operation is controlled. That is, in the 5R and 9R, after the first variable winning opening 234 is opened for 180 ms by the opening timer pattern 1 first, the first variable winning opening 234 is kept closed for 2820 ms by the closing timer pattern 1 Is executed four times, the first variable prize opening 234 is opened for 17500 ms by the opening timer pattern 3, and then the first variable prize opening 234 is closed by the closing timer pattern 3 and the operation is finished. The

  Also, in the big hit game in the case of big hit in the special figure E, as shown in FIG. 16 (a-3), in the first to fourth rounds, the above-mentioned special electric power operation data 1 is referred to and the above-described operation is performed. On the other hand, in the 5R to 15R, the special electric combination operation data 2 shown in FIG. 16B-2 is referred to, and the opening / closing operation of the first variable winning port 234 or the second variable winning port 235 is controlled. . That is, in the 5R to 15R, after the first variable winning opening 234 (second variable winning opening 235) is opened for 180 ms by the opening timer pattern 1, the first variable winning opening 234 (first 2 variable prize winning opening 235) is kept closed for 2820 ms, and then the first variable prize winning opening 234 (second variable winning prize opening 235) is kept closed by the closing timer pattern 3 so that the operation ends. Controlled. Note that another closing pattern timer (for example, the closing pattern timer 1 or the like) may be set before the closing pattern timer 3 is set.

  In step S1206, the number of operation of the special electric combination (round number) is acquired. In the next step S1207, the acquired number of operation of the special electric combination (round number) is updated. Subsequently, in step S1208, the special power combination operation data corresponding to the updated number of operations of the special power combination (number of rounds) is read to set the operation pattern of the special power combination. In step S1209, a special power combination control process (details will be described later) is performed. In next step S1210, after the special power combination winning detection timer is cleared, the special power combination release process is terminated.

  Next, with reference to FIG. 14, the special power combination operation process executed in the special figure state update process will be described. FIG. 14 is a flowchart of a special electric utility operation process executed in the special figure state update process. This special power combination operation process is a process that is called and executed when the information set in the special figure process state indicates “special power combination operation state” in step S602 of the special figure state update process.

  In step S1301 of the special electric actor operation process, the maximum number of winnings stored in the RAM 308 is acquired, and in step S1302, the number of winnings stored in the RAM 308 is acquired. In step S1303, the acquired maximum number of winnings is compared with the number of winnings, and it is determined whether or not the number of winnings is smaller than the maximum number of winnings. : Yes), the process proceeds to step S1304. If not (when the number of winnings> = the maximum number of winnings) (step S1303: No), the process proceeds to step S1308.

  In step S1304, it is determined whether or not the special timer opening / closing timer corresponding to the open timer pattern or the closing timer pattern being executed, which is set in step S1208 of the special electric actor release process, is greater than zero. If the opening / closing timer has not elapsed (step S1304: Yes), the special electric power actuating process is terminated, and if not (when the special electric power opening / closing timer has elapsed) (step S1304: No), step S1305 is performed. Proceed to In step S1305, a special power combination control process (details will be described later) is performed. In the next step S1306, a special power combination opening / closing timer pattern is acquired. In the next step S1307, a closing timer pattern among the acquired special power combination opening / closing timer patterns. , It is determined whether or not the special power combination is being operated (whether or not the closing timer pattern is set in the information indicating the end of the operation (closing timer pattern 3)).

  As a result of the determination, when the special power combination is operating (when the closing timer pattern is not set in the information indicating the end of the operation (closed timer pattern 3)) (step S1307: Yes), the special power combination operating process is terminated. When the special power combination is not operating (when the closing timer pattern is set to information indicating the end of the operation (closing timer pattern 3)) (step S1307: No), the process proceeds to step S1308. In step S1308, information indicating the “remaining sphere detection state” is set as the special figure processing state. Thereby, in step S602 of the next special figure state update process, the special electric charge remaining sphere detection process shown in FIG. 17 is called and executed.

  In step S1309, the special electric utility operation interval timer stored in the RAM 308 is set, in step S1310, other information signal transmission determination timers are cleared, and in step S1311, a transmission request for a subcommand (big prize closing command) is issued. Set.

  In step S1312, the special electric prize winning detection timer stored in the RAM 308 is set. Here, the special electric prize winning detection timer refers to the big winning opening (first variable winning opening 234 and second variable winning opening 235 after the large winning opening (first variable winning opening 234 and second variable winning opening 235) is closed. ) Is a timer for effectively detecting the game balls remaining inside. In step S1313, after setting the drive signal (large winning port solenoid signal) for driving the solenoid (332) of the large winning port (first variable winning port 234 and second variable winning port 235) to OFF, The operation process is terminated.

  As described above, in the present embodiment, when the first variable winning opening 234 and the second variable winning opening 235 are in the easy-to-enter state, the maximum number of winning game balls has passed to the passing area. In addition, it functions as an example of a variable winning means that changes to a difficult entry state.

  Next, the special power combination control process (step S1209, step S1305) executed in the special power combination release process and the special power combination activation process will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 15 is a flowchart of a special power combination control process executed in the special power combination release process and the special power action operation process.

  In step S1401, special power combination control data stored in the ROM 306 is acquired. Specifically, the control data of the operation pattern to be executed this time is acquired from the operation patterns of the special power combination to be executed, which is read and set in step S1208 of the special power combination release process. To do. For example, if the operation pattern of the special electric combination indicated in the special electric combination operation data 1 is set and the round starts, the “open timer pattern 2 shown in“ (1) ”of FIG. ”Is acquired. In addition, after the operation pattern indicated by the control data indicated by “(1)” in FIG. 16B-1 is completed, the “closing timer” indicated by “(2)” in FIG. The control data of “Pattern 3” is acquired.

  Subsequently, in step S1402, the opening / closing information indicating whether the variable winning opening (first variable winning opening 234, second variable winning opening 235) is opened or closed based on the acquired control data of the operation pattern of the special electric character. To get. For example, if it is an “open timer pattern”, data (open information) for opening the first variable winning port 234 or the second variable winning port 235 is acquired. Data (closing information) for closing the winning opening 234 or the second variable winning opening 235 is acquired. In the present embodiment, the odd variable round is a round in which the first variable winning opening 234 can be opened, and the even round is a round in which the second variable winning opening 235 can be opened.

  In step S1403, a special electric combination opening / closing timer is acquired based on the control data of the operation pattern of the special electric combination acquired in step S1401 and the opening / closing information acquired in step S1402. For example, when “open timer pattern 2” is acquired and the open / close information is “open information”, an open timer of 29500 ms is acquired. When “closing timer pattern 1” is acquired and the opening / closing information is “closing information”, a closing timer of 2820 ms is acquired.

  In step S <b> 1404, information indicating acceptance is set in the special power prize winning / impossible state stored in the RAM 308. When the information indicating that the special electric winning combination winning / rejecting state is acceptable is set, a ball detection sensor (a first count switch SW1 of the first variable winning opening 234 or a second variable winning prize is provided in the variable winning opening). When it is possible to accept that it has passed through the second count switch SW2) of the mouth 235 and information indicating that acceptance is not possible, a ball detection sensor (first count switch) provided in the variable winning opening Even if it passes through SW1 or the second count switch SW2), it becomes invalid. Here, only the count switch corresponding to the variable winning opening to be opened out of the first variable winning opening 234 and the second variable winning opening 235 is set to be acceptable. In step S1405, special electric signal information (test signal) is set. In step S1406, preparation for updating the special winning opening solenoid signal is performed. Specifically, only the big winning hole solenoid bits corresponding to the first variable winning opening 234 and the second variable winning opening 235 are cleared, and drive data is set for the driven big winning solenoid bits. In this process, preparation for driving the special winning opening solenoid is performed, and a drive signal is output in the output management process (step S518) in the timer interrupt process described above. In step S1407, the special power combination opening / closing timer of the special power combination opening / closing timer is set, and then the special power combination control process is terminated. That is, in this process, the open timer or the close timer acquired in step S1403 is set.

  Next, with reference to FIG. 17, the special electric power remaining sphere detection process executed in the special figure state update process will be described. FIG. 17 is a flowchart of the special electric charge remaining sphere detection process executed in the special figure state update process. This special electric character remaining sphere detection process is called and executed when the information set in the special figure processing state indicates “remaining sphere detection state” in step S602 of the special figure state update process. is there.

  In step S1501 of the special power combination remaining ball detection process, it is determined whether or not the special power combination operation interval timer set in step S1309 of the special power combination operation process is in operation. If not (step S1501: Yes), the special electric combination remaining sphere detection process is terminated. If not (when the special electric combination operation interval time has elapsed) (step S1501: No), the process proceeds to step S1502. move on.

  In step S1502, a special power combination operation delay timer stored in the RAM 308 is set, and in step S1503, information indicating "special power combination operation end state" is set in the special figure processing state. Thereby, in step S602 of the next special figure state update process, the special electric utility operation end process shown in FIG. 18 is called and executed. That is, it becomes a state of the interval between rounds.

  In step S1504, after the special power combination signal information (test signal) is cleared, the special power combination remaining ball detection process is terminated. Note that a subcommand transmission request (for example, an inter-round interval start command) may be set after clearing the special power signal information.

  Next, with reference to FIG. 18, the special electric utility operation end process executed in the special figure state update process will be described. FIG. 18 is a flowchart of the special electric utility operation end process executed in the special figure state update process.

  In step S1601 of the special power combination operation end process, it is determined whether or not the special power combination operation delay timer set in step S1502 of the special power remaining ball detection process is in operation. If it is in operation (step S1601: Yes). ), The special electric utility operation end processing is terminated, and if not (step S1601: No), the process proceeds to step S1602. In step S1602, the symbol type information is acquired, and it is determined whether or not the special symbol win / rejection type is a small hit. If it is a small hit (step S1602: Yes), the small hit is handled in step S1603. After acquiring the hit end display timer, the process proceeds to step S1608. On the other hand, if the special figure win / loss type is not a small hit (step S1602: No), the process proceeds to step S1604, and a predetermined number of times is set as the maximum winning opening number stored in the RAM 308. In step S1605, the number of times of opening the special winning opening is compared with the number of opening of the special winning combination, and it is determined whether or not the number of opening of the special winning combination is less than the maximum opening number of the large winning opening, that is, whether or not the winning is not finished. . If the winning has not ended (step S1605: Yes), the process proceeds to step S1606 to execute the above-mentioned special electric character release process, and the special electric character operation end process is ended. That is, processing for starting the next round is performed. On the other hand, if the winning is over (step S1605: No), the process proceeds to step S1607.

  In step S1607, a hit end display timer corresponding to the symbol type information is acquired. In step S1608, the hit end display timer acquired in step S1603 or step S1607 is set. In step S1609, information indicating “hit end display wait state” is set in the special figure processing state. Thereby, in step S602 of the next special figure state update process, the hit end display wait process shown in FIG. 19 is called and executed. In step S1610, after setting a transmission request for the subcommand (hit end command), the special electric utility operation end processing is ended.

  Next, the hit end display weight process executed in the special figure state update process will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 19 is a flowchart of the hit end display wait process executed in the special figure state update process. This hit end display weight process is a process that is called and executed when the information set in the special figure processing state indicates “hit end display wait state” in step S602 of the special figure state update process. is there.

  In step S1701 of the winning end display weight process, it is determined whether or not the winning end display timer set in step S1608 of the special electric utility operation end process is in operation (step S1701: Yes). The winning end display weight process is terminated. If not (step S1701: NO), the process proceeds to step S1702. In step S1702, the symbol type information stored in a predetermined area of the RAM 308 is saved in the stack area. In step S1703, the basic signal information (for testing) is cleared. Information indicating "waiting state" is set. Thereby, in step S602 of the next special figure state update process, the special figure related lottery process shown in FIG. 10A is called and executed.

  In steps S1705 to S1707, the display symbol data, symbol type information, and the total number of winning prizes are cleared. In step S1708, the saved symbol type information is reset, and in step S1709, it is determined whether or not the small hit is completed. If the small hit is completed (step S1709: Yes), the winning end display weight process is performed. When the process is finished and the process is finished with other than the small hit (when finished with the big hit) (step S1709: No), the process proceeds to step S1710.

  In step S1710, setting data (probability change, short time, hidden probability change) after hitting is acquired, and in step S1711, data corresponding to the setting data after hitting (probability change status (special figure probability state status, normal figure probability state status)) , Time reduction (Special figure fluctuation time reduction fluctuation frequency, Fluctuation time correction fluctuation frequency, Easy winning status fluctuation frequency), Time reduction status (Special figure fluctuation time reduction status, Normal figure fluctuation time reduction status, Open extension status), Variation time lottery The state (information for determining the variable time lottery table and the like) is set, and the setting data after clearing the hit is cleared, and then the hit end display wait process is ended.

  Thus, in the present embodiment, the CPU 304 of the main control unit 300 functions as an example of a game control unit that can execute a big hit game.

  Next, processing of the first sub control unit 400 will be described. FIG. 22A is a flowchart of main processing executed by the CPU 404 of the first sub control unit 400.

In this initialization processing, initialization of input / output ports, initialization processing of a storage area in the RAM 408, and the like are performed.

  In step S1803 following step S1801, it is determined whether or not the timer variable is 10 or more. This process is repeated until the timer variable becomes 10, and when the timer variable becomes 10 or more, the process proceeds to step S1805. . In step S1805, 0 is substituted for the timer variable.

  In step S1807 following step S1805, command processing is performed. The CPU 404 of the first sub control unit 400 determines whether a command has been received from the main control unit 300.

  In step S1809 following step S1807, effect control processing is performed. For example, when there is a new command in step S 1807, processing such as reading the effect data corresponding to this command from the ROM 406 is performed, and when the effect data needs to be updated, the effect data is updated. The effect control process will be described later.

  In step S1811 following step S1809, a chance button control process is performed. In the chance button control process, when the pressing of the chance button 136 is detected, the effect data updated in step S1809 is changed to the effect data corresponding to the pressing of the chance button 136.

  In step S1813 subsequent to step S1811, image control processing is performed. In the image control process, if there is a command to the VDP 434 in the effect data read in step S1809, this command is output to the VDP 434 (details will be described later).

  In step S1815 subsequent to step S1813, sound control processing is performed. In the sound control process, if there is a command to the sound source IC 416 in the effect data read in step S1809, this command is output to the sound source IC 416.

  In step S1817 subsequent to step S1815, lamp control processing is performed. In the lamp control process, if there is a command to various lamps 418 in the effect data read in step S1809, this command is output to the drive circuit 420.

  In step S1819 subsequent to step S1817, shutter control processing is performed. In the shutter control process, if there is a command to the shielding device 246 in the effect data read in step S1809, this command is output to the drive circuit 432.

  In step S1821 subsequent to step S1819, information transmission processing is performed. In the information transmission process, when there is a control command to be transmitted to the second sub-control unit 500 in the effect data read in step S1809, a setting is made to output this control command. Thereafter, the process returns to step S1803.

  FIG. 22B is a flowchart of the first sub control unit command reception interrupt process (strobe interrupt process) executed by the CPU 404 of the first sub control unit 400. This command reception interrupt process is a process executed when the first sub-control unit 400 detects a strobe signal from the main control unit 300. In step S1901 of the command reception interrupt process, the command received from the main control unit 300 is stored in the command storage area provided in the RAM 408 as an unprocessed command.

  FIG. 22C is a flowchart of the first sub control unit timer interrupt process executed by the CPU 404 of the first sub control unit 400. The first sub-control unit 400 includes a hardware timer that generates a timer interrupt at a predetermined cycle (in this embodiment, once every 2 ms), and the timer interrupt process is performed by using the timer interrupt as a trigger. Execute in the cycle. In step S2001 of the first sub control unit timer interrupt process, 1 is added to the value of the timer variable storage area of the RAM 408 described in step S1803 of the first sub control unit main process, and the result is stored in the original timer variable storage area. To do. Accordingly, in step S1803, the value of the timer variable is determined to be 10 or more every 20 ms (2 ms × 10).

  FIG. 22D is a flowchart of the image control process in step S1813 of the first sub control unit main process. In step S2101, an instruction to transfer image data (movie data and texture data described later) is issued. Here, the CPU 404 first swaps the designation of the drawing areas of the frame buffer 1 and the frame buffer 2 of the VRAM 436. As a result, an image of one frame stored in the frame buffer not designated as the drawing area is displayed on the decorative design display device 208. Next, the CPU 404 sets ROM coordinates (transfer source address of the ROM 406), VRAM coordinates (transfer destination address of the VRAM 436) and the like in the attribute register of the VDP 434 based on the position information table and the like, and then the image from the ROM 406 to the VRAM 436. Sets an instruction to start data transfer The VDP 434 transfers the image data from the ROM 406 to the VRAM 436 based on the command set in the attribute register. Thereafter, the VDP 434 outputs a transfer end interrupt signal to the CPU 404.

  In step S2103 following step S2101, it is determined whether or not a transfer end interrupt signal from the VDP 434 is input. If a transfer end interrupt signal is input (step S2103: Yes), the process proceeds to step S2105. If not (step S2103: No), it waits for the transfer end interrupt signal to be input.

  In step S2105, parameters are set based on the production scenario configuration table and attribute data. Here, in order to form a display image in the frame buffer 1 or 2 of the VRAM 436 based on the image data transferred to the VRAM 436 in step S2101, the CPU 404 has information on image data constituting the display image (coordinate axes and image size of the VRAM 436). , VRAM coordinates (arrangement coordinates, etc.) are instructed to the VDP 434. The VDP 434 performs parameter setting according to the attribute based on the instruction stored in the attribute register.

  In step S2107 following step S2105, a drawing instruction is performed. In this drawing instruction, the CPU 404 instructs the VDP 434 to start drawing an image. The VDP 434 starts drawing an image in the frame buffer in accordance with an instruction from the CPU 404.

  In step S2109 subsequent to step S2107, it is determined whether or not a generation end interrupt signal from the VDP 434 based on the end of image drawing is input. If a generation end interrupt signal is input (step S2109: Yes), The process proceeds to step S2111. If not (step S2109: NO), the process waits for the generation end interrupt signal to be input.

  In step S2111, a scene display counter which is set in a predetermined area of the RAM 408 and counts how many scene images have been generated is incremented (+1), and the process ends.

  Next, an effect control process (step S1809) in the first sub control unit main process shown in FIG. 22 will be described. FIG. 23A is a flowchart illustrating an example of the effect control process executed by the CPU 404 of the first sub control unit 400.

  In step S2201 of the effect control process, an over winning sound output control process is performed, and in the next step S2203, a winning number display control process is performed. Details of the over winning sound output control process and the winning number display control process will be described later. In step S2205 following step S2203, other effect control processing is performed.

  FIG. 23B is a flowchart of the over winning sound output control process. First, in step S2301 of the over winning sound output control process, the number of winnings to the variable winning opening (the first variable winning opening 234 or the second variable winning opening 235) of the currently executed round is acquired. Subsequently, in step S2303, it is determined whether or not the acquired number of winnings exceeds the maximum number of winnings, and if it exceeds (step S2303: Yes), the process proceeds to step S2305 and a predetermined over winning is obtained from the speaker 120. After the effect data is updated so that the sound is output, the over winning sound output control process is terminated. Specifically, the CPU 404 of the first sub-control unit 400 counts the number of received big prize winning command transmitted from the main control unit 300 after the round starts, and updates and stores the result in the RAM 408. doing. If the counting result exceeds the maximum number of winnings in one round (for example, 10), the effect data updated in step S1809 of the first sub-control unit main process is output as an over winning sound. Process to change to data. On the other hand, if the acquired number of winnings does not exceed the maximum number of winnings (step S2303: No), the over winning sound output control process is terminated without executing the process of step S2305.

  FIG. 23C is a flowchart of the winning number display control process. First, in step S2401 of the winning number display control process, it is determined whether or not it is the start timing of the round. Whether or not it is the start timing of the round is determined by determining whether or not a special power release command is received from the main control unit 300. When it is the start timing of the round (step S2401: Yes), the process proceeds to step S2403, and the value of the number of winning prizes in the RAM 408 (hereinafter sometimes referred to as “sub-control unit winning counter”) is cleared. To do. Note that the sub-control unit winning counter to be cleared is cleared only by the value of the sub-control unit winning counter corresponding to the variable winning port to be opened out of the first variable winning port 234 and the second variable winning port 235, and is not opened. The value of the sub-control unit winning counter corresponding to the variable winning opening remains maintained. Note that any sub-control unit winning counter value may be cleared. On the other hand, if it is not the start timing of the round (step S2401: No), the process proceeds to step S2405 without executing the process of step S2403.

  In step S2405, it is determined whether or not a round is in progress. If the round is in progress (step S2405: Yes), the process proceeds to step S2407 to open a variable winning opening (first variable winning opening 234 or second variable winning opening). 2 variable prize winning opening 235), the value of the sub-control unit winning counter is acquired. That is, the number of winning prizes in the open big winning opening is acquired. Subsequently, in step S2409, after the effect data is updated so that display according to the acquired number of winnings is performed, the winning number display control process is terminated. By executing this process, an effect display (for example, a winning number display, a winning effect, etc.) corresponding to the number of winnings is performed during the round of the big hit game.

  Next, the process of the second sub control unit 500 will be described. FIG. 24A is a flowchart of main processing executed by the CPU 504 of the second sub-control unit 500. First, in step S2501 in FIG. 24A, various initial settings are performed. When power is turned on, initialization processing is first executed in step S2501. In this initialization processing, initial setting of input / output ports, initialization processing of a storage area in the RAM 508, and the like are performed.

  In step S2503 subsequent to step S2501, it is determined whether or not the timer variable is 10 or more. This process is repeated until the timer variable becomes 10, and when the timer variable becomes 10 or more, the process proceeds to step S2505. . In step S2505, 0 is substituted for the timer variable.

  In step S2507 following step S2505, command processing is performed. The CPU 504 of the second sub control unit 500 determines whether a command has been received from the first sub control unit 400.

  In step S2509 subsequent to step S2507, effect control processing is performed. For example, when there is a new command in step S 2507, processing such as reading effect data (effect data by the effect movable body 224 or effect data by the lamp) corresponding to the command from the ROM 506 is performed, and the effect data is updated. If necessary, the effect data is updated.

  In step S2511 subsequent to step S2509, lamp control processing is performed. For example, if there is a command from the first sub-control unit 400 to the game board lamp 532 or the game table frame lamp 542, this command is output to the serial communication control circuit 520.

  In step S2513 subsequent to step S2511, a movable body control process is performed. For example, when there is a command from the first sub-control unit 400 to the effect movable body 224, this command is output to the drive circuit 516. Thereafter, the process returns to step S2503.

  FIG. 24B is a flowchart of command reception interrupt processing executed by the CPU 504 of the second sub control unit 500. This command reception interrupt process is a process executed when the second sub control unit 500 detects a strobe signal from the first sub control unit 400. In step S2601 of the command reception interrupt process, the command received from the first sub control unit 400 is stored as an unprocessed command in a command storage area provided in the RAM 508.

  FIG. 24C is a flowchart of the timer interrupt process executed by the CPU 504 of the second sub control unit 500. The second sub-control unit 500 includes a hardware timer that generates a timer interrupt at a predetermined cycle (in this embodiment, once every 2 ms), and the timer interrupt process is predetermined by using the timer interrupt as a trigger. Execute in the cycle. In step S2601 of the timer interrupt process, 1 is added to the value of the timer variable storage area of the RAM 508 described in step S2503 of the second sub-control unit main process, and the result is stored in the original timer variable storage area. Therefore, in step S2503, the value of the timer variable is determined to be 10 or more every 20 ms (2 ms × 10). In step S2603 subsequent to step S2601, an effect random number update process or the like is performed.

  Next, a specific example of effects executed in the pachinko machine 100 according to the present embodiment will be described.

  FIG. 25 is a diagram showing an example of effects centered on the decorative symbol display device 208 of the pachinko machine according to this embodiment.

  FIG. 25 includes a decorative symbol display device 208, a first special symbol display device 212, a second special symbol display device 214, a normal symbol display device 210, a special symbol 1 holding lamp 218, a special symbol 2 holding lamp 220, and a general symbol. A hold lamp 216 is shown.

  In the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 25A, the combination of decorative symbols “decoration 4-decoration 1-decoration 7” is stopped and displayed. Although the background here is not displayed, a default background image described later is displayed. Also in the following description, when the background is not displayed, a default background image is displayed unless otherwise specified. Various background images different from the default background image (for example, a background image corresponding to a mode) may be displayed.

  The decorative symbol display device 208 is provided with a fourth symbol display area 284 in the upper right corner. The fourth symbol display area 284 is an area for notifying whether the symbol is changing (or stopping the symbol). From the top, the normal symbol changing notification region, and the special symbol changing notification region of Special Figure 1 from above. , It becomes a notification area during the symbol variation of Special Figure 2. While a regular symbol is stopped, a square figure is lit and displayed. When a regular symbol is changed, the square figure is blinked or extinguished. While the symbol of special figure 1 is stopped, the circular figure is lit and displayed. However, when the symbol of special figure 1 is changing, the circular figure is blinked or turned off. While the symbol of the special figure 2 is stopped, the triangular figure is lit up and displayed. However, while the symbol of the special figure 2 is changing, the triangular figure is blinked or turned off. In this way, the 4th symbol not only has a different display position but also a different display mode (in this case, a shape), so that the player can make a determination at first glance. Note that the pre-reading notice may be performed by changing the display mode, lighting mode, and flashing mode of the fourth symbol.

  In addition, the decorative symbol display device 208 is provided with a variable icon display area 280 at the lower center of the effect display area 208d.

  Furthermore, the control state (game state) shown in FIG. 25 is a non-electric support state (non-time reduction state). The decorative symbol display device 208 in the non-electric support state is provided with a hold icon display area 281 of the special figure 1 on the left side of the variable icon display area 280. In addition, a hold icon display area 282 of special figure 2 is provided at the right end of the decorative symbol display device 208 in the non-electric support state.

  The hold icon indicating the hold of the special figure 1 is displayed in the hold icon display area 281 of the special figure 1, and the hold icon indicating the hold of the special figure 2 is displayed in the hold icon display area 282 of the special figure 2. . The number of holdings in the special figure 1 is represented not only by the number of lighting of the special figure 1 holding lamp 218 but also by the number of the holding icons in the special figure 1, and the number of holdings in the special figure 2 is the number of lighting of the special figure 2 holding lamp 220. In addition to this, it is also represented by the number of reserved icons in FIG. That is, the hold icon corresponds to the start information stored in the RAM 308 of the main control unit 300. Hereinafter, the hold icon corresponding to the oldest start information (oldest winning prize) may be referred to as a first hold icon, and the hold icon corresponding to the second oldest start information may be referred to as a second hold icon. In the hold icon display area 281 of FIG. 1, the hold icons are displayed side by side, and the hold icon on the right side becomes an old hold icon, and the hold icon display area 282 of FIG. 2 displays the hold icons vertically. The lower the hold icon, the older the win icon becomes.

  In FIG. 25A, two hold icons h11 and h12 of FIG. 1 are displayed in the hold icon display area 281 of FIG. 1, and both of these two hold icons h11 and h12 of FIG. The default display mode (round, non-patterned and white display mode) is displayed. That is, the default hold icon in FIG. 1 is a round hold icon. In FIG. 25A, in order to make it easy to understand that the four hold icons are displayed in the hold icon display area 281 of the special figure 1, the hold icons that are not actually displayed are also indicated by dotted lines. .

  On the other hand, no hold icon is displayed in the hold icon display area 282 of FIG. This is because, as described above, the control state (game state) shown in FIG. 25 is the non-electric support state (non-time-short state), so that it is difficult for the electric chew to open and it is difficult to win the special figure 2 starting port 232. This is because. Note that the reserved icon display area 282 of the special figure 2, that is, the reserved icon display area provided at the right end of the decorative symbol display device 208 does not actually display a line defining the area, but in FIG. Is indicated by a dotted line for easy understanding. Note that a line demarcating the area may be provided, or a line demarcating the area may be displayed when the hold icon is displayed. Further, in order to make it easy to understand that the four hold icons are displayed in the hold icon display area 282 of the special figure 2, the hold icons that are not actually displayed are also indicated by dotted lines.

  In the pachinko machine 100 of the present embodiment, depending on the control state (game state), the hold icon display area of the special figure that is easier to win in the special figure 1 and the special figure 2 is located on the left side of the variable icon display area 280 ( It is displayed in the effect display area 208d), and the other special figure hold icon display area is displayed at the right end. That is, when the control state is the non-electric support state, as shown in FIG. 25A, the hold icon display area 281 of the special figure 1 is displayed in the effect display area 208d, and the hold icon display of the special figure 2 is displayed. A region 282 is displayed at the right end. On the contrary, when the control state is the electric support state, the hold icon display area 282 of FIG. 2 is displayed in the effect display area 208d, and the hold icon display area 281 of FIG. 1 is displayed at the right end.

  Although not shown here, the default display mode of the hold icon in the special figure 2 is a square, non-patterned and white display form, and the display position is different from the hold icon in the special figure 1 as well as the display position ( Here, the shape) is also different, so that the player can make a determination at first glance. In addition, the default display mode of the hold icon in FIG. 1 and the default display mode of the hold icon in FIG. 2 may be the same.

  In the present embodiment, the special symbol variation display is started in the order of variation start in the special symbol display device → starting blinking or extinguishing of the fourth symbol → starting or deleting the moving animation of the hold icon → decorating decorative symbol variation. However, this order may be reversed.

  In FIG. 25 (b), the symbol variation display of the special symbol 1 is started, the symbol variation in the first special symbol display device 212 is started, and the fourth symbol is turned off. There has been no change in the design.

  In FIG. 25 (c), the moving animation of the hold icons h11 and h12 in the special figure 1 is started. In this moving animation, the hold icon (target hold icon for the current symbol variation) that was at the display position of the first hold icon h11 starts moving toward the change icon display area 280, and the second hold The hold icon at the display position of the icon h12 starts moving toward the display position of the first hold icon h11 in FIG. At this stage, the decorative symbol variation display has not started.

  In FIG. 25 (d), the moving animation continues, and in FIG. 25 (e), the hold icon that was the first hold icon h11 before the start of change reaches the change icon display area 280 and is displayed as the change icon h0. At the same time, the hold icon which was the second hold icon h12 before the start of the change has reached the display position of the first hold icon h11 and is displayed as the first hold icon h11. The decorative symbol display has not been started. It should be noted that when the symbol variation in the first special figure display device 212 is started, the pending icon that has been the first pending icon h11 so far may be viewed as the varying icon h0, or until then the second pending icon The hold icon that was h12 may be viewed as the first hold icon h11.

  Then, in FIG. 25 (f), the decorative symbol variation display is started.

  As shown in FIG. 25 (g), an operation promotion notification image 136P that prompts the user to press the effect button 136 within the effective period is displayed on the decorative symbol display device 208 where the decorative symbol variation display has started. In this operation promotion notification image 136P, an image 136P1 of the effect button 136 and a remaining time display bar 136P2 indicating the remaining time of the effective period are displayed on the right side of the character image of the main character. The variation display of the decorative symbol is hidden by the operation promotion notification image 136P, but the player can recognize that the special symbol is changing by the fourth symbol 284 or the like. Note that the display position of the decorative symbol may be moved to a position that does not overlap the operation promotion notification image 136P so that the decorative symbol is not hidden.

  In the remaining time display bar 136P2 shown in FIG. 25 (h), the valid period is reduced, and in FIG. 25 (i), the player presses the effect button 136. When the effect button 136 is pressed within the effective period, a reach state entry notice image 2071 is displayed on the decorative symbol display device 208 instead of the operation promotion notification image 136P as shown in FIG. . In the reach state entry preview image 2071, a character display “chance is” is displayed on the right side of the character image of the main character.

  In FIG. 25 (k), the reach state entry notice image 2071 disappears, and the decorative symbol change display becomes visible, and thereafter, the reach state is entered as shown in FIG. It should be noted that even if the reach state entry notice image 207 is displayed, the reach state may not be entered, but the entry may always be made.

  As described above, the appearance of the operation promotion notification image 136P corresponds to an effect that triggers a notice regarding the currently displayed symbol variation display.

  In FIG. 25 (m), the background image is switched from the default background image to non-display, and the variable icon display area 280 and the hold icon display area 281 in FIG. 1 disappear. The fourth symbol display area 284 is displayed. In addition, the decorative symbol variation display that has been performed in the left symbol display area 208a, the middle symbol display area 208b, and the right symbol display area 208c so far is moved to the lower right corner and is reduced and displayed in FIG. 25 (n). , Has developed into a super reach (swordsman reach). The decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 25 (n) displays a large image of the enemy swordsman, and the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 25 (o) shows a duel between the protagonist and the enemy swordsman. The scene animation is displayed.

  Note that the reach state entry advance notice image 2071 is not limited to the advance notice of entering the reach state, but may be a advance notice of progress to super reach.

  FIG. 26 is a diagram showing the continuation of the example of the effect shown in FIG. 25 in stages.

  In FIG. 26 (p) continuing from FIG. 25 (o), the duel scene animation continues, and this animation continues to FIG. 26 (s). In FIG. 26 (s), the main character, Tono, wins the enemy swordsman, and in FIG. 26 (t), everything is temporarily hidden except for the fourth symbol display area 284. In addition, it may replace with non-display and may display a different background image. Eventually, as shown in FIG. 9 (u), the fluctuation of the combination of the decorative symbols “decoration 7-decoration 7-decoration 7” is displayed. The background here may be non-displayed or a different background image. Further, the display of the fluctuation icon display area 280 and the hold icon display area 281 of FIG. 1 remains off, and only the fourth symbol display area 284 is displayed.

  In the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 26 (v), the combination of the decorative symbols of “decoration 7-decoration 7-decoration 7” determined to be the 15R probability variation big hit is stopped and displayed. Moreover, the 4th pattern (round figure) of the special figure 1 shown in FIG.26 (v) is lighted. In FIG. 26 (v), the background is not displayed, but actually a background image different from the default is displayed. Eventually, in FIG. 26 (w), as a big hit game start effect, a character display of “probable big hit” is made together with a background image (not shown here) celebrating the big hit.

  On the other hand, when the reach state is reached in a different decorative pattern (substantially 5R probability big hit, 5R normal big hit, 2R normal big hit, 2R normal big hit) in FIG. 25 (l), the figure in another case continues from FIG. 26 (t). 26 (u ′), the fluctuation of the combination of the decorative symbols “decoration 6—decoration 6—decoration 6” is displayed. In FIG. 26 (v ′) following FIG. 26 (u ′), “decoration 6—decoration”. The combination of jackpot decorative symbols of “6-decoration 6” is stopped and displayed. Then, in FIG. 26 (w ′) following FIG. 26 (v ′), as a big hit game start effect, a character display of “big hit” is displayed together with a background image (not shown here) celebrating the big hit.

  FIG. 27 is a diagram showing an example of effects in another case following step (q) in a stepwise manner.

  In FIG. 27 (a), the animation of the duel scene started in FIG. 25 (o) continues, and this animation continues until FIG. 27 (b). In FIG. 27 (b), the main character, Tono-sama loses to the enemy swordsman, and in FIG. 27 (c), as in FIG. 26 (t), all remains once except for the fourth symbol display area 284. Eventually, in FIG. 27 (d), the fluctuation of the decorative symbol combination of “decoration 7-decoration 6-decoration 7” is started. Here, the display of the fluctuation icon display area 280 and the hold icon display area 281 of FIG. 1 is restored, and the change icon h0 and the first hold icon h11 of FIG. 1 are displayed.

  In the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 27 (e), the fourth symbol (round shape) of the special symbol 1 is turned on, and the combination of the decorative symbols of “decoration 7-decoration 6-decoration 7” is stopped. It is displayed. Next, during the fixed display period shown in FIG. 1, in the variation icon display area 280, an erase animation of the variation icon h0 is executed. In FIG. 8F, the erasing animation of the variation icon h0 is started. The erasing animation continues in FIG. 10G, and the variation icon h0 is completely disappeared in FIG. Note that the animation for deleting the change icon h0 may be executed before the confirmation display of the special figure 1 is performed.

  Next, the jackpot game will be described in detail.

  FIG. 28 is a timing chart for explaining the operation from the start to the end of the big hit game.

  28, in order from the top, the fluctuation state of FIG. 1, the fluctuation state of FIG. 2, the state of the large winning port 1 solenoid that opens and closes the first variable winning port 234, and the second variable winning port 235. The state of the 2 winning solenoids for opening / closing driving, the special figure changing time shortening status, and the remaining number of times are shown. In FIG. 28, the period indicated by “α” indicates a period in which the special figure display confirmation timer is set, and is in a special figure display confirmation state, and is indicated by “β”. The period indicates a period in which the above-described hit start display timer is set and a big hit (small hit) start effect is performed. In the period indicated by “δ”, the above-described special electric utility operation interval timer is set. Thus, the period in which the remaining sphere is detected is indicated. The period indicated by “ε” indicates a period in which the above-mentioned special electric power operation delay timer is set and the interval effect between rounds is performed. The period indicated by “ζ” indicates a period in which the hit end display timer is set and the jackpot end effect is performed. Further, when the special figure variation time reduction status is “0”, it indicates that the special figure low probability normal figure low probability state (normal game state), and when it is “1”, the special figure low probability normal figure is indicated. A high probability state (short-time state) is indicated, and “2” indicates a special figure high probability ordinary figure high probability state (probability variation state).

  As shown in FIG. 28, the symbol variation of special figure 1 is started at the timing of ta02 after the symbol variation of special figure 1 is started at the timing of ta01. At this time, in the special figure 1, when the symbol (for example, “special figure F”) that is a 5R normal big hit stops, after the period (α1) set by the special figure display confirmation timer has elapsed, at the timing of ta03. The jackpot start effect is started, and this jackpot start effect is performed until the period (β1) set by the hit start display timer elapses. The hit start display timer may be set to “0”, or may be set to a very short time (for example, 4 ms). For example, when the first round is started immediately after the end of the symbol variation display, or when the special symbol display confirmation timer α is kept long and the big hit start effect is performed during that period, It is conceivable to employ the case where an effect that shows a state in which three decorative symbols are arranged during the display of fluctuations in the figure is made longer or when the right-handed notification is not performed.

  When the big hit start effect is finished and the timing of ta04 is reached, the first round is started, and since it is an odd number round, the big winning opening 1 solenoid is driven and the first variable winning opening 234 is opened. After that, the above-mentioned maximum number of winning game balls won in the first variable winning opening 234, or set in the first round in the case of a big hit with the set special electric action data (for example, "Special Figure F") When the opening timer set by the “special power combination operation data 1”) elapses, the driving of the large winning opening 1 solenoid is stopped at the timing ta05, and the first variable winning opening 234 is closed.

  Then, the special power combination operation interval timer is set at the timing of ta05, and when the set period (δ1) elapses and the timing of ta06 is reached, the first round is ended, and the special power operation delay timer is set. Thereafter, when the period (ε1) set by the special power combination operation delay timer elapses and the timing of ta07 is reached, the second round is started. In this embodiment, the period (ε1) set by the special power combination operation delay timer is set as the period of the interval between rounds. Here, the period of the interval between rounds may be a period indicated by A in the figure or a period indicated by B in the figure. That is, the period indicated by A is a period from when the first sub-control unit 400 receives the big prize opening closing command from the main control part 300 to when it receives the big prize opening opening command in the next round, After the driving of the first prize winning port 1 solenoid stops and the first variable prize winning port 234 is closed, the second winning prize winning port 235 is opened in the next round until the second winning prize winning port 235 is driven. It is also a period. Further, a period indicated by B is a period from the time when the special electric utility 1 described later changes from the operating state to the non-operating state until the special electric utility 2 changes from the non-operating state to the operating state in the next round. When the unit 300 is configured to be able to transmit an inter-round interval start command, the first sub-control unit 400 receives the inter-round interval start command from the main control unit 300 and then receives a big prize opening release command in the next round. It is also a period until receiving.

  When the second round is started at the timing of ta07, since it is an even number round this time, the big winning opening 2 solenoid is driven and the second variable winning opening 235 is opened. Thereafter, the second variable winning slot 235 is set in the second round in the case where the above-mentioned maximum number of game balls is won, or when the special electric character action data set (for example, “Special Figure F” is a big hit) When the opening timer set by the “special electric charge operation data 1”) elapses, the driving of the large winning opening 2 solenoid is stopped at the timing of ta08, and the second variable winning opening 235 is closed.

  Then, the special electric utility operation interval timer is set at the timing of ta08, and when the set period (δ2) elapses and the timing of ta09 is reached, the second round is ended, and the special electric utility operation delay timer is set. Thereafter, when the period (ε2) set by the special electric utility operation delay timer elapses and the timing of ta10 is reached, the third round is started. Thereafter, the above-described operation is repeatedly executed until the fifth round is completed (ta10 to ta16).

  In this way, the big hit game is performed, and at the timing ta16, the big hit end effect is started, and this big hit end effect is performed until the period (ζ1) set by the hit end display timer elapses. The hit end display timer may be set to “0”, or may be set to a very short time (for example, 4 ms). For example, in a big hit game of 15R (substantially 8R), when a big hit end effect is performed between the ninth and fifteenth rounds, a hit end display timer is set and the big hit end effect is displayed during this period. There is no need to do this, and it may be adopted in such a case.

  When the big hit end effect is finished and the timing of ta17 is reached, the big hit game is ended and the symbol variation of special figure 1 is started. At this time, since the gaming state shifts to a special figure low probability normal figure high probability state (short time state), the special figure fluctuation time shortening status becomes “1” in which the special figure fluctuation shortening is permitted, and the short time number is “ 100 ".

  The start timing of the big hit game may be the timing when the special figure is stopped and displayed, may be the timing when the variable winning opening (attacker) starts the first opening, or the big winning opening solenoid is turned on first. It may be the timing when

  On the other hand, the end timing of the big hit game may be the timing at which the variable prize opening (attacker) finally changed from “open” to “closed”, or finally the big prize opening solenoid signal turned from on to off. It may be timing.

  FIG. 29 is a timing chart for explaining the operation timing of the first variable winning opening (first attacker) and the second variable winning opening (second attacker) in the big hit game.

  In FIG. 29, in order from the top, the fluctuation state of the special figure 1, the operating state of the accessory continuous operation device and the condition device, the state of the large winning port 1 solenoid that opens and closes the first variable winning port 234, the first The operating state of the special electric combination (special electric combination 1) related to the variable prize opening 234, the setting state of the special electric prize winning detection timer (special electric combination 1 winning detection timer) related to the first variable prize opening 234, the first count switch SW1 Valid / invalid state, state of a large winning port 2 solenoid that opens and closes the second variable winning port 235, operating state of a special electric accessory (special electric role 2) related to the second variable winning port 235, second variable winning port The setting state of the special power combination winning detection timer (special power combination 2 winning detection timer) according to H.235 and the valid / invalid state of the second count switch SW2 are shown. Here, the accessory continuous operation device refers to a special device that can continuously operate the special electric accessory (in the present embodiment, the first variable winning port 234 and the second variable winning port 235), The condition device is a device whose operation is a condition necessary for the operation of the continuous object operating device, and a combination of specific symbols is displayed or a game ball (when the continuous object operating device is operating) Except for those whose entrances have been opened or who have won prizes in the enlarged grand prize opening.) Are operated when passing a specific area in the big prize opening. Since the timing at which the operation of the condition device starts and the timing at which the condition device ends coincide with each other, they are represented by the same timing chart.

  As shown in FIG. 29, the special symbol 1 changes, and then the symbol change of the special symbol 1 ends at the timing of tb01, and the symbol (for example, “special symbol A”) that becomes the 15R probability variation big hit is obtained. When the stop display is made, after the period (α1) set by the special figure display confirmation timer has elapsed, the condition device and the accessory continuous operation device are changed from the non-operating state to the operating state at the timing tb02. That is, the big hit game is started at the timing of tb02. The big hit start effect is started at this timing, and this big hit start effect is performed until the period (β1) set by the hit start display timer elapses.

  When the big hit start effect is finished and the timing of tb03 is reached, the first round is started, and since it is an odd number round, the special electric utility 1 is changed from the non-actuated state to the activated state. Since the first variable winning opening 234 is opened from the start of the first round, the large winning opening 1 solenoid is also driven at this time, and the first variable winning opening 234 is opened. Further, the first count switch SW1 changes from the invalid state to the valid state at the timing when the special electric utility 1 is activated. Thereby, when the game ball that has entered the first variable prize opening 234 passes through the first count switch SW1, this can be detected effectively, and can be handled as having been awarded effectively to the first variable prize opening 234. It becomes like this. Note that the first count switch SW1 may be changed from the invalid state to the valid state at the timing when the first variable prize winning opening 234 is first opened after the round starts.

  After that, the above-mentioned maximum number of winning game balls won in the first variable winning opening 234, or set in the first round in the case of a big hit with the set special electric character operation data (for example, "Special Figure A") When the opening timer set by the “special power combination operation data 1”) elapses, the driving of the large winning opening 1 solenoid stops at the timing of tb04 and the first variable winning opening 234 is closed. At this time, a special power combination operation interval timer is set, and a predetermined time (for example, 3 seconds) is set in the special power combination winning detection timer (special power combination 1 winning detection timer) related to the first variable winning opening 234. The period set by this special electric role 1 winning detection timer may be referred to as a first valid period. In the present embodiment, in a state where the special electric combination 1 winning detection timer is set, the first count switch SW1 is maintained in an effective state even after the special electric combination 1 is inactivated. The special electric role 1 is in an operating state even after the first variable winning opening 234 is closed until the round is ended, that is, until the period (δ1) set by the special electric character operation interval timer elapses. It has become.

  When the period (δ1) set by the special electric function operation interval timer elapses and the timing of tb05 is reached, the first round ends, the special electric function 1 is changed from the operating state to the non-operating state, and the special electric function operation delay timer is set. The After that, when the period (ε1) set by the special power combination operation delay timer elapses and the timing of tb06 is reached, the second round is started, and this time is an even number round, so that the special power combination 2 is changed from the non-operating state to the operating state. Become. In this embodiment, the special electric combination 1 and the special electric combination 2 do not operate simultaneously. Since the second variable winning opening 235 is opened from the start of the second round, the large winning opening 2 solenoid is also driven at this time so that the second variable winning opening 235 is opened. Further, the second count switch SW2 changes from the invalid state to the valid state at the timing when the special power combination 2 is activated. As a result, when the game ball that has entered the second variable prize opening 235 passes through the second count switch SW2, this can be detected effectively, and it can be treated as having been awarded effectively to the second variable prize opening 235. It becomes like this. In the present embodiment, since the first count switch SW1 is in the valid state until the period set by the special electric winning combination 1 winning detection timer elapses even after the second variable winning opening 235 is opened, When the two variable winning opening 235 is in an open state, a game ball that has entered the first variable winning opening 234 in the previous round may pass through the first count switch SW1 and be detected as winning. Note that the second count switch SW2 may change from the invalid state to the valid state at the timing when the second variable prize winning opening 235 is first opened after the round starts.

  After that, when the period set by the special electric combination 1 winning detection timer elapses, the first count switch SW1 becomes invalid at the timing of tb07.

  Thereafter, the second variable winning slot 235 is set to the second round when the above-mentioned maximum number of winning game balls are won, or when the special electric combination action data (for example, “Special Figure A” is a big hit) When the opening timer set by the “special electric charge operation data 1”) elapses, the driving of the large winning opening 2 solenoid is stopped at the timing tb08, and the second variable winning opening 235 is closed. At this time, the special power combination operation interval timer is set, and a predetermined time (for example, 3 seconds) is set in the special power combination winning detection timer (special power combination 2 winning detection timer) related to the second variable winning opening 235. The period set by the special power combination 2 winning detection timer may be referred to as a second effective period. In the present embodiment, in a state where the special power combination 2 winning detection timer is set, the second count switch SW2 is maintained in an effective state even after the special power combination 2 is inactivated. The special power 2 is in an operating state after the second variable winning opening 235 is closed until the round is ended, that is, until the period (δ2) set by the special power operating interval timer elapses. It has become.

  When the period (δ2) set by the special power combination operation interval timer elapses and the timing of tb09 is reached, the second round ends, the special power combination 2 changes from the operating state to the non-operating state, and the special power combination operation delay timer is set. The After that, when the period (ε2) set by the special power combination operation delay timer elapses and the timing of tb10 is reached, the third round is started, and this time is an odd round, so that the special power combination 1 is changed from the non-operating state to the operating state. Become. Since the first variable winning opening 234 is opened from the start of the third round, the large winning opening 1 solenoid is also driven at this time, and the first variable winning opening 234 is opened. Further, the first count switch SW1 changes from the invalid state to the valid state at the timing when the special electric utility 1 is activated. In the present embodiment, since the second count switch SW2 is in an effective state until the period set by the special electric prize 2 winning detection timer elapses even after the first variable winning opening 234 is opened, When the 1 variable winning opening 234 is in an open state, a game ball that has entered the second variable winning opening 235 in the previous round may be detected as a winning through the second count switch SW2. In the present embodiment, since the same special power combination operation data (“special power combination operation data 1”) is used in the first variable winning opening 234 and the second variable winning opening 235, the opening time of the first variable winning opening 234 And the opening time of the second variable prize opening 235 are the same time, but different special electric character operation data may be set for the first variable prize opening 234 and the second variable prize opening 235, respectively. In addition, special power combination operation data that is used only in one of the first variable winning port 234 and the second variable winning port 235 may be prepared.

  After that, when the period set by the special power combination 2 winning detection timer elapses, the second count switch SW2 becomes invalid at the timing of tb11.

  Thereafter, when the above-mentioned maximum number of winning game balls have been won at the first variable winning opening 234 or when the release timer set by the set special electric character operation data has elapsed, the timing of the big winning opening 1 solenoid is reached at the timing of tb12. The driving is stopped and the first variable prize winning opening 234 is closed. Thereafter, the above-described operation is repeated until the final round 15 is completed.

  Next, a specific example of effects executed in the pachinko machine 100 according to the present embodiment will be described.

  FIG. 30 is a diagram showing step-by-step the state of the big hit game with 15R special jackpot, and FIG. 31 is a diagram showing step by step the continuation of the big hit game with 15R special jackpot shown in FIG. 32 is a diagram showing the continuation of the jackpot game in the 15R special jackpot shown in FIG. 31 in stages.

  30 includes a decorative symbol display device 208, a first special figure display device 212, a second special figure display device 214, a universal figure display device 210, a special figure 1 hold lamp 218, a special figure 2 hold lamp 220, and a universal figure hold. A lamp 216 is shown. FIG. 30 also shows a first variable winning opening 234 that is a first attacker and a second variable winning opening 235 that is a second attacker, and the first variable winning opening 234 corresponds to the first variable winning opening 234. Corresponding to the number of balls entered into the variable winning port 234, the main control unit winning counter 1, the sub control unit winning counter 1, and the second variable winning port 235, the number of balls entered into the second variable winning port 235, the main control A part winning counter 2 and a sub-control part winning counter 2 are shown. Here, the number of balls entered indicates the number of game balls received in the first variable winning port 234 (second variable winning port 235) in one round, and the first count switch SW1 (second count switch SW2). It does not matter whether or not it has passed. Further, the main control unit winning counter 1 and the main control unit winning counter 2 store the number of wins to the first variable winning port 234 and the second variable winning port 235 stored in the RAM 308 of the main control unit 300 in one round. It is a counter shown. The sub-control unit winning counter 1 and the sub-control unit winning counter 2 are stored in the RAM 308 of the sub-control unit 400 and indicate the number of winnings to the first variable winning port 234 and the second variable winning port 235 in one round. It is. The sub-control unit winning counter 1 and the sub-control unit winning counter 2 are counted when a large winning opening winning command is received from the main control unit 300. Furthermore, in this embodiment, the speaker 120 is also shown in FIG.

  In FIG. 30A, as a big hit game start effect, a character image of “probable big hit” is displayed together with a background image (not shown here) celebrating the big hit. In addition, the display of the fluctuation icon display area 280, the hold icon display area 281 of FIG. 1, and the 4th symbol display area 284 has disappeared.

In FIG. 30 (b), the first round, which is the first round of the 15 round jackpot game, is started. The first variable winning opening 234 shown in FIG. 30B is opened, and the first variable winning opening 234 is in an open state. Further, 1R character display (number of rounds display) is made at the upper left corner of the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. The round number display is started at the timing after the first variable winning opening 234 is opened, but may be started at the same timing. Further, in the decorative symbol display device 208, a character C1 of a haniwa that imitates a cactus appears as a big hit game effect, and an effect display dedicated to the first round including the character C1 is performed. In addition, “decoration 7” is displayed in the upper right corner of the decorative symbol display device 208. This “decoration 7” continues to be displayed until the big hit game end effect is started.
Therefore, it continues to be displayed even in the interval between rounds. FIG. 30 (b) shows a state in which one game ball is effectively won in the first variable winning opening 234. The display of “decoration 7” may be erased during the interval between rounds.

  In FIG. 30C as well, the first variable winning opening 234 is open, and the first variable winning opening 234 is maintained in the open state. In addition, the round number display is continued in the upper left corner of the decorative symbol display device 208, and the effect display dedicated to the first round is also continued. In FIG. 30 (c), nine game balls to the first variable winning opening 234 are effectively won, and two game balls are received by the first variable winning opening 234, and still have the first count switch SW1. The state of not passing through is shown.

  In FIG. 30 (d), the main control unit winning counter 1 becomes "10" and the number of winnings to the first variable winning opening 234 becomes the maximum winning number, so the first variable winning opening 234 is closed and the first variable winning opening 234 is closed. The variable winning opening 234 is in the closed state. On the other hand, the decorative symbol display device 208 still displays 1R characters in the upper left corner and “decoration 7” in the upper right corner. Furthermore, the effect display for the first round is also continued. That is, FIG. 30D shows that the remaining sphere is detected. One scene of the effect display dedicated to the first round including the character C1 (one scene having a different number of shining images br) shown in FIG. 30D corresponds to the opening end effect of the attacker in the first round. In FIG. 30 (d), one game ball (remaining ball) that has been received by the first variable winning opening 234 but has not yet passed through the first count switch SW1 is transferred within the first variable winning opening 234. It is shown moving. This game ball is the eleventh game ball to be awarded to the first variable winning port 234, and can be said to be a game ball that will be won beyond the maximum number of wins (over win).

  Eventually, as shown in FIG. 30 (e), when the remaining sphere detection state ends and the interval between rounds is reached, the 1R character display at the upper left corner of the decorative symbol display device 208 disappears. At this time, an effect peculiar to the interval between rounds may be performed. In this embodiment, the round number display is erased at the timing after the first variable winning opening 234 is closed. However, the round number display may be erased at the timing at which the first variable winning opening 234 is closed. Good. Further, the round number display may be continuously displayed until the next round (for example, the second round) starts. In FIG. 30 (e), the game ball that is rolling in the first variable winning opening 234 in FIG. 30 (d) has not yet passed through the first count switch SW1, and is still rolling. It is shown. In the present embodiment, the period of FIG. 30 (e) may be an interval between rounds, and the effect display including the character C1 shown in FIG. 30 (d) to FIG. Considering the effect, the period of FIG. 30D to FIG. Thus, in this embodiment, the decorative symbol display device 208 is a period from the end of the first round in the jackpot game to the start of the second round started after the first round. Therefore, it can be said that it functions as an example of the second effect means capable of executing the interval effect between rounds.

  Subsequently, in FIG. 31F, the second round is started. The second variable winning opening 235 shown in FIG. 5F is opened, and the second variable winning opening 235 is maintained in the open state, and the decorative symbol display device 208 displays an effect dedicated to the second round including the character C1. (An effect display in which the number of brilliant images br is different) is started, and 2R character display (round number display) is performed in the upper left corner of the decorative symbol display device 208. Further, in FIG. 31 (f), no winning has yet been made to the second variable winning opening 235. On the other hand, in FIG. 31 (f), the game ball that is rolling in the first variable winning opening 234 in FIG. 30 (d) has not yet passed through the first count switch SW1, and is still rolling. It is shown. As described above, in this embodiment, even after the round (second round) is started, the game balls that have entered the first variable winning opening 234 in the previous round (first round) are still winning. It may be in a state that is not.

  Also in FIG. 31 (g), the second variable winning opening 235 is maintained in the open state, the round number display is continued in the upper left corner of the decorative symbol display device 208, and the effect display dedicated to the second round is also continued. Yes. Further, in FIG. 31 (g), one game ball to the second variable winning opening 235 is effectively won, and further, one gaming ball is received by the second variable winning opening 235 and is still in the second count switch SW2. The state of not passing through is shown. On the other hand, FIG. 31 (g) shows a state in which the game ball rolling in the first variable prize winning opening 234 in FIG. 31 (f) has passed through the first count switch SW1. At this time, since the special electric combination 1 winning detection timer is set and the passing of the game ball to the first count switch SW1 is effectively handled, it is treated as an effective winning to the first variable winning opening 234, The main control unit winning counter 1 and the sub control unit winning counter 1 both count “11”, which is the eleventh winning. Then, an over winning is generated by the eleventh winning at the first variable winning opening 234, and as shown in FIG. 31 (g), the speaker 120 receives an over winning sound (first over sound) to notify that. (Winning sound) is output.

  FIG. 31 (h) shows a state in which the time set by the special power combination 1 winning detection timer has elapsed and the first count switch SW1 has become invalid. Thus, after that, even if the game ball passes through the first count switch SW1 until the special electric role 1 operates again, it is determined that the winning of the gaming ball to the first variable winning port 234 is invalid. Note that the passage of the game ball by the first count switch SW1 may not be detected. Furthermore, when a game ball passes through the first count switch SW1 in a state where the first count switch SW1 is disabled, it may be determined that an error has occurred. Further, in the present embodiment, the main control unit winning counter 1 and the sub control unit winning counter 1 are the RAM 308 of the main control unit 300 and the RAM 408 of the first sub control unit 400 until the first variable winning port 234 is opened next time. And is cleared when the first variable winning opening 234 is opened again. In FIG. 31 (h), the game ball that has entered the second variable winning slot 235 at the timing shown in FIG. 31 (g) is treated as an effective winning through the second count switch SW2, The control section winning counter 2 and the sub-control section winning counter 2 each count “2”, which is the second prize, and one more game ball is received in the second variable winning opening 235 and is still counted second. A state in which the switch SW2 is not passed is shown.

  Subsequently, in FIG. 32 (i), the main control unit winning counter 2 becomes “10”, the number of winnings to the second variable winning slot 234 becomes the maximum winning number, and the second variable winning slot 235 is closed. A state in which the remaining sphere detection state is ended and an interval between rounds is shown is shown. In FIG. 32 (i), the 2R character display displayed in the upper left corner of the decorative symbol display device 208 has disappeared. In FIG. 32 (i), one game ball (remaining ball) that has been accepted by the second variable winning opening 235 but has not yet passed through the second count switch SW2 is transferred within the second variable winning opening 235. It is shown moving. This game ball is an eleventh game ball to be awarded to the second variable winning port 235, and can be said to be a game ball to be over-winned.

  Subsequently, in FIG. 32 (j), the third round is started. The first variable winning opening 234 shown in FIG. 6J is opened, and the first variable winning opening 234 is maintained in the open state, and the decorative symbol display device 208 displays an effect exclusively for the third round including the character C1. (An effect display in which the number of brilliant images br is different) is started, and a 3R character display (round number display) is performed in the upper left corner of the decorative symbol display device 208. In FIG. 32 (j), the first variable winning opening 234 has not been won yet. On the other hand, in FIG. 32 (j), the game ball that is rolling in the second variable winning opening 235 in FIG. 32 (i) has not yet passed through the second count switch SW2, and is still rolling. It is shown. Thus, in this embodiment, even after the round (third round) is started, the game ball that has entered the second variable winning slot 235 in the previous round (second round) is still a prize. It may be in a state that is not.

  Also in FIG. 32 (k), the first variable winning opening 234 is being maintained in the open state, and the round number display is continued in the upper left corner of the decorative symbol display device 208, and the effect display dedicated to the third round is also continued. Yes. FIG. 32 (k) shows a state in which one game ball is received by the first variable winning opening 234 and has not yet passed through the first count switch SW1. On the other hand, FIG. 32 (k) shows a state in which the game ball that was rolling in the second variable prize winning opening 235 in FIG. 32 (j) has passed through the second count switch SW2. At this time, since the special electric role 2 winning detection timer is set and the passing of the game ball to the second count switch SW2 is effectively handled, it is treated as an effective winning to the second variable winning opening 235, The main control unit winning counter 2 and the sub control unit winning counter 2 both count “11”, which is the eleventh winning. Then, an over winning is generated by the eleventh winning at the second variable winning opening 235, and as shown in FIG. 32 (k), the speaker 120 receives an over winning sound (second over sound) to notify that. (Winning sound) is output. Note that the over winning sound corresponding to the first variable winning opening 234 and the over winning sound corresponding to the second variable winning opening 235 may be the same sound or different sounds.

  Thereafter, 3 to 15 rounds are digested as described above.

  Thus, in the present embodiment, the speaker 120 functions as a first effect unit that can execute an over-winning effect when a game ball enters the variable winning means exceeding the maximum number of winnings.

  Further, in the RAM 308 of the main control unit 300 and the RAM 408 of the first sub-control unit 400 in this embodiment, the area for storing the number of winnings is divided for each of the variable winning ports 234 and 235, so the first count switch SW1 is effective. Even if a game ball wins the first variable winning opening 234 during a period in which a certain period overlaps with a period when the second count switch SW2 is valid, the first sub-control unit 400 wins the first variable winning opening 234. Can be determined according to the information from the main control unit 300, and the player may be relieved.

<First Modification>
Next, a first modification of the pachinko machine 100 according to the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 33 is a diagram for explaining another display mode in the jackpot game with 15R special jackpot, and is a diagram showing step by step how to display the number of winnings for each round.

  33 (b), FIG. (C), FIG. (E), FIG. (F), and FIG. 33 (g) are respectively shown in FIG. 30 (b), FIG. 30 (c), and FIG. 31 (f) and FIG. 31 (g), the difference is that the winning number display indicating the number of winnings for each round is displayed at the lower right of the decorative symbol display device 208. This winning number display changes according to the counter values indicated by the sub-control unit winning counter 1 and the sub-control unit winning counter 2, and can be said to be an example of a winning effect. The winning number display may be an example of a winning effect that changes in accordance with the number of game balls that have entered the variable winning means from the start of one round in the jackpot game to the end of the round. .

  In this effect example, in FIG. 33 (e), the round number display is erased at the timing after the maximum winning number "10" is displayed in the winning number display. In addition, the winning number display is continuously displayed during the interval between rounds. The round number display may be erased at the same timing as the winning number display, or the winning number display may be erased before the interval period between rounds starts.

  In this production example, the winning number display uses both the number corresponding to the number of winnings in the first variable winning port 234 and the number corresponding to the number of winnings in the second variable winning port 235. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 33 (f), at the timing when the second variable winning opening 235 is opened after the round starts, the winning number display is cleared to “0”, and the winning number display is the first variable winning display. From the display corresponding to the number of winning balls to the mouth 234, the display corresponds to the number of winning balls to the second variable winning opening 235. Note that the round number display start timing and the winning number display clear timing may be the same, or the round number display may start at the timing after the winning number display is cleared. Further, the winning number display may be cleared at a timing after the round number display starts. In addition, the display mode of the winning number display is not limited to being displayed by numbers, and may be expressed by, for example, the number of symbols displayed, by characters, or by the number of icons. In addition, the winning number display is not limited to being simply expressed by numbers, and may be a mode in which character information such as “1 GET”, “2 GET”, or the like is combined. In the present embodiment, the winning number display is displayed in a count-up manner, but may be displayed in a count-down manner. In this production example, the case where the second variable prize opening 235 is opened after the first variable prize opening 234 is changed from the open state to the closed state has been described, but the second variable prize opening 235 is in the open state. If the first variable winning opening 234 is opened after the first variable winning opening 234 is closed, the winning number display is cleared to “0” at the timing when the first variable winning opening 234 is opened, and the winning is achieved. The number display changes from the display corresponding to the number of winning balls to the second variable winning opening 235 to the display corresponding to the number of winning balls to the first variable winning opening 234.

  As described above, the decorative symbol display device 208 functions as an example of a second effect unit that can execute a winning effect that changes in accordance with the number of game balls that have entered the variable winning unit.

<Second Modification>
Next, a second modification of the pachinko machine 100 according to the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 34 is a diagram for explaining another display mode in the jackpot game with the 15R special jackpot, and is a stepwise process for displaying according to the total number of game balls won from the start of the jackpot game to the variable winning opening. It is the figure shown in.

  FIGS. 34 (b), (c), (e), (f), and (g) are respectively shown in FIGS. 30 (b), (c), and (e). 31 (f) and FIG. 31 (g), a display corresponding to the total number of winnings in the variable winning opening in the jackpot game (winning total number display) is displayed at the center on the right side of the decorative symbol display device 208. It differs in that it is displayed. In this production example, as the total number of winning prizes displayed, the total number of winning balls (total number of winning balls) that can be obtained by winning a variable winning opening in the jackpot game, and variable winnings between the start of the jackpot game and the present time The number of winning balls (acquired winning balls) acquired by winning in the mouth is displayed in such a manner that it can be specified. For example, in this production example, the number of prize balls that can be obtained by winning one game ball in the first variable prize slot 234 and the second variable prize slot 235 is 15, and the maximum number of prizes in one round is 10. Yes, if 10 game balls can win the variable winning slots 234 and 235 in all 15 rounds, 2250 prize balls can be obtained. 2250 "is displayed, and the value obtained by multiplying the number of game balls won in the variable winning openings 234, 235 from the start of the jackpot game to the present by the number of prize balls is displayed as the number of winning prize balls. Is done. Note that the number of game balls won in the variable winning opening may be displayed instead of the number of winning balls acquired. Further, in this production example, the amount of over-winning is not included in the number of winning balls acquired (total number of winnings in the variable winning opening in the big hit game), but may be included.

  In this effect example, as shown in FIG. 34 (e), the winning total number display is continuously performed even during the interval between rounds. It should be noted that the winning total display may be erased during the interval between rounds.

  Further, in this production example, as described above, the amount of winning over is not included in the number of winning balls acquired, so in FIG. 34 (g), the game balls to the variable winning openings 234 and 235 are displayed. The number of winnings is 12, whereas the total number of winnings displayed is “165” corresponding to 11 winnings. As described above, in the present embodiment, the decorative symbol display device 208 has the maximum number of game balls that have entered the variable winning means from when the variable winning means becomes easy to enter until it becomes difficult to enter. It functions as an example of a second effect means capable of executing a winning effect that can change until the number corresponds to the number. The total number display of winnings including the amount of over winnings may be “180” corresponding to twelve. Further, the display mode of the total number display of the winning prizes is not limited to being displayed by numbers, and for example, may be expressed by the number of symbols displayed, may be expressed by characters, or may be expressed by the number of icons. Also, the winning number display is not limited to being simply expressed by numbers, and may be a mode in which character information such as “1000 GET” or “2000 GET” is combined. Further, in the present embodiment, the winning total display is displayed in a count-up mode, but may be displayed in a count-down mode.

  It should be noted that, in this production example, when the over-winning portion is displayed in the acquired number of winning balls, the number of acquired winning balls is larger than the total number of winning balls that can be acquired (for example, “2280 / Display such as “2250 pt”), or a display that changes the total number of winning award balls according to the number of winning award balls (for example, the display of the original total number of winning balls that can be acquired is “2250 pt” When the number of winning prize balls is “2280”, a display such as “2280 / 2280pt” may be made. Moreover, in this effect example, although the display which increases the number of winning prize balls is performed, for example, a display which decreases from the total number of winning balls which can be acquired (for example, a display such as “remaining 2250 pt”) may be performed. In this case, the amount of over-winning may not be included or may be included. Here, in the case of not including the amount of over winning, in the case where there is a winning game ball to the variable winning opening 234, 235 in each round from the start to the end of the big hit game, respectively, the maximum winning number, For example, “remaining 0 pt” is displayed. In addition, when including an over-winning portion, “remaining 0 pt” may be displayed before a certain round (for example, the 15th round) ends, but further, the variable winning openings 234 and 235 are displayed. If there is a winning game ball, the display of “remaining 0 pt” may be continued, for example, a display using a minus such as “remaining −30 pt”, or “remaining 0 pt + bonus points” “30 pt” or “bonus points 30 pt” may be displayed so that the number of winning balls acquired by over-winning can be recognized, or over-winnings such as “Remaining, large board behavior” or “Big board behavior” It is also possible to display such that it can be recognized (display indicating that the number of winning balls is larger than the number of winning balls that can be originally acquired).

<Third Modification>
Next, a third modification of the pachinko machine 100 according to the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 35 is a diagram for explaining another display mode in the jackpot game with the 15R special jackpot, and is a diagram showing in a stepwise manner how the number of winnings for each round is displayed for each variable winning opening.

  FIGS. 35 (b), (c), (e), (f), and (g) are respectively shown in FIGS. 30 (b), (c), and (e). 31 (f) and FIG. 31 (g), the winning number display for each variable winning opening indicating the number of winnings for each round is displayed at the lower right of the decorative symbol display device 208. Is different. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 35B, the number of winnings corresponding to the first variable winning opening 234 is displayed in the “upper attacker” column, and the number of winnings corresponding to the second variable winning opening 235 is “ It is displayed in the “Lower Attacker” column. Further, in this production example, the winning number display is performed so that the amount of over-winning is not included in the winning number, but the winning number display may be performed including the winning number.

  In this effect example, as shown in FIG. 35 (e), the number-of-wins are continuously displayed even during the interval between rounds. Note that the winning number display may be erased during the interval between rounds.

  In this effect example, as shown in FIG. 35 (f), even if the second round starts and the second variable winning opening 235 is opened, the winning number display corresponding to the first variable winning opening 234 is It is maintained as “10” indicating that ten winnings have been won, and continues until the first variable winning opening 234 is opened.

  Also, in this production example, as described above, the amount of over-winning is not included in the number of winning balls acquired, so in FIG. 35 (g), the game ball to the first variable winning opening 234 is displayed. While the number of winnings is 11, the winning number display corresponding to the first variable winning opening 234 is maintained as “10” indicating that 10 winnings have been won. In other words, in the present embodiment, the decorative symbol display device 208 is configured such that the number of game balls that have entered the variable winning means from when the variable winning means enters the easy entering state to the difficult entering state becomes the maximum number of winnings. It functions as an example of a second effect means capable of executing a winning effect that can change until the corresponding number is reached. In addition, it is good also as "11" which shows having shown 11 number-of-wins display corresponding to the 1st variable winning opening 234 including the part which over-winned. In this production example, the case where the second variable prize opening 235 is opened after the first variable prize opening 234 is changed from the open state to the closed state has been described, but the second variable prize opening 235 is in the open state. When the first variable winning opening 234 is opened after the first variable winning opening 234 is closed, the winning number display corresponding to the second variable winning opening 235 is displayed even if the first variable winning opening 234 is opened. It is maintained until the second variable winning opening 235 is opened.

<Fourth Modification>
Next, the 4th modification in the pachinko machine 100 concerning this embodiment is explained. In this modification, the sub-control unit winning counter in the RAM 408 of the first sub-control unit 400 is commonly used for the one corresponding to the first variable winning port 234 and the one corresponding to the second variable winning port 235. This is different from the above-described embodiment.

  FIG. 36 is a diagram for explaining another embodiment in the jackpot game with the 15R special jackpot, and is a diagram showing in a stepwise manner how the first variable winning opening is won across rounds, FIG. 37 is a diagram showing the continuation of the jackpot game at the 15R special jackpot shown in FIG. 36 in stages, and FIG. 38 is a diagram showing the continuation of the jackpot game at the 15R special jackpot shown in FIG. is there.

  36, similarly to the above-described embodiment, the decorative symbol display device 208, the first special drawing display device 212, the second special drawing display device 214, the universal drawing display device 210, the special drawing 1 holding lamp 218, the special drawing. A two-hold lamp 220 and a general-purpose hold lamp 216 are shown. FIG. 36 also shows a first variable winning opening 234 that is a first attacker and a second variable winning opening 235 that is a second attacker, and the first variable winning opening 234 corresponds to the first variable winning opening 234. The number of balls entered into the variable winning port 234, the main control unit winning counter 1 and the number of balls entered into the second variable winning port 235 and the main control unit winning counter 2 corresponding to the second variable winning port 235 are shown. Has been. Further, in the present embodiment, one sub control unit winning counter corresponding to both the first variable winning port 234 and the second variable winning port 235 is shown and provided in the RAM 308 of the sub control unit 400. The sub-control unit winning counter is counted when a large winning opening winning command is received from the main control unit 300. In FIG. 36, the speaker 120 is not shown.

  In FIG. 36 (a), as a big hit game start effect, a character image of “probable big hit” is displayed together with a background image (not shown here) celebrating the big hit. In addition, the display of the fluctuation icon display area 280, the hold icon display area 281 of FIG. 1, and the 4th symbol display area 284 has disappeared.

  In FIG. 36 (b), the first round, which is the first round of the 15 round jackpot game, is started. The first variable winning opening 234 shown in FIG. 36 (b) is opened, and the first variable winning opening 234 is in an open state. In addition, 1R character display (round number display) is made in the upper left corner of the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. The round number display is started at the timing after the first variable winning opening 234 is opened, but may be started at the same timing. Further, in the decorative symbol display device 208, a character C1 of a haniwa that imitates a cactus appears as a big hit game effect, and an effect display dedicated to the first round including the character C1 is performed. In addition, “decoration 7” is displayed in the upper right corner of the decorative symbol display device 208. This “decoration 7” continues to be displayed until the big hit game end effect is started. Therefore, it continues to be displayed even in the interval between rounds. In the lower right corner of the decorative symbol display device 208, a winning number display indicating the number of winnings for each round is displayed in the lower right corner of the decorative symbol display device 208. The winning number display is displayed based on the value indicated by the sub-control unit winning counter. FIG. 36B shows a state in which one game ball is effectively won in the first variable winning opening 234, and the winning number display is “1”.

  Also in FIG. 36C, the first variable winning opening 234 is open, and the first variable winning opening 234 is maintained in the open state. In addition, the round number display is continued in the upper left corner of the decorative symbol display device 208, and the effect display dedicated to the first round is also continued. In FIG. 36 (c), seven game balls to the first variable winning opening 234 are effectively won, and further, one game ball is received by the first variable winning opening 234, and still the first count switch SW1. The state of not passing through is shown. Therefore, the winning number display is “7”.

  In FIG. 36 (d), even if the number of winnings to the first variable winning opening 234 does not become the maximum number of winnings after the release timer set by the special power combination operation data set as described above elapses. The first variable winning opening 234 is closed, and the first variable winning opening 234 is in a closed state. On the other hand, the decorative symbol display device 208 still displays 1R characters in the upper left corner and “decoration 7” in the upper right corner. Furthermore, the effect display for the first round is also continued. That is, FIG. 36D shows that the remaining sphere is detected. One scene of the effect display dedicated to the first round including the character C1 (one scene with a different number of sparkling images br) shown in FIG. 36D corresponds to the opening end effect of the attacker in the first round. In FIG. 36 (d), one game ball (remaining ball) that has been accepted by the first variable prize opening 234 but has not yet passed through the first count switch SW1 is transferred within the first variable prize opening 234. It is shown moving. This game ball is a game ball that is the eighth winning prize to the first variable winning opening 234. That is, in the first round in this production example, it can be said that no over-winning has occurred, but the number of winnings is displayed. As described above, in the present embodiment, the decorative symbol display device 208 functions as an example of second rendering means that can execute a winning effect even when an over winning effect is not performed.

  Eventually, as shown in FIG. 36E, when the remaining sphere detection state ends and the interval between rounds is reached, the 1R character display at the upper left corner of the decorative symbol display device 208 disappears. At this time, an effect peculiar to the interval between rounds may be performed. In this embodiment, the round number display is erased at the timing after the first variable winning opening 234 is closed. However, the round number display may be erased at the timing at which the first variable winning opening 234 is closed. Good. In FIG. 36 (e), the game ball that is rolling in the first variable winning opening 234 in FIG. 36 (d) has not yet passed through the first count switch SW1, and is still rolling. It is shown. In the present embodiment, the period of FIG. 36 (e) may be an interval between rounds, and the effect display including the character C1 shown in FIG. 36 (d) to FIG. In view of the effect, the period of FIG. 36D to FIG.

  Subsequently, in FIG. 37 (f), the second round is started. The second variable winning opening 235 shown in FIG. 5F is opened, and the second variable winning opening 235 is maintained in the open state, and the decorative symbol display device 208 displays an effect dedicated to the second round including the character C1. (An effect display in which the number of brilliant images br is different) is started, and 2R character display (round number display) is performed in the upper left corner of the decorative symbol display device 208. At this time, the value of the sub-control unit winning counter is cleared and the winning number display is also “0”. Also, in FIG. 37 (f), there is still no winning in the second variable winning opening 235. On the other hand, in FIG. 37 (f), the game ball that is rolling in the first variable winning opening 234 in FIG. 36 (d) has not yet passed through the first count switch SW1, and is still rolling. It is shown. As described above, in this embodiment, even after the round (second round) is started, the game balls that have entered the first variable winning opening 234 in the previous round (first round) are still winning. It may be in a state that is not.

  Also in FIG. 37 (g), the second variable winning opening 235 is being maintained in the open state, the round number display is continued in the upper left corner of the decorative symbol display device 208, and the second round exclusive display is also continued. Yes. FIG. 37 (g) shows a state where the second variable winning award 235 has not yet entered the ball. On the other hand, FIG. 37 (g) shows a state in which the game ball that has been rolling in the first variable prize winning opening 234 in FIG. 37 (f) has passed through the first count switch SW1. At this time, since the special electric combination 1 winning detection timer is set and the passing of the game ball to the first count switch SW1 is effectively handled, it is treated as an effective winning to the first variable winning opening 234, The main control unit winning counter 1 counts “8”, which is the eighth winning prize, but the sub-control unit 400 indicates that the first variable winning opening has been won after the second round has started. Therefore, the sub-control unit winning counter counts “1” which is the first winning prize. Therefore, the winning number display is also “1”.

  FIG. 37 (h) shows a state in which the time set by the special power combination 1 winning detection timer has elapsed and the first count switch SW1 has become invalid. Thus, after that, even if the game ball passes through the first count switch SW1 until the special electric role 1 operates again, it is determined that the winning of the gaming ball to the first variable winning port 234 is invalid. In the present embodiment, the main control unit winning counter 1 is stored and held in the RAM 308 of the main control unit 300 until the first variable winning port 234 is opened next, and the first variable winning port 234 is opened again. It is cleared with. Also, in FIG. 37 (h), three game balls enter the second variable winning opening 235, and two of these game balls pass through the second count switch SW2 and are treated as valid wins. The prize winning counter 2 indicates that “2” is counted. The remaining one game ball has not yet passed through the second count switch SW2. In this embodiment, as described above, since one game ball has passed through the first count switch SW1 after the second round has started, the sub-control unit winning counter has already counted “1”. In this state, since two game balls have won, the sub-control unit winning counter is counted as “3”, and therefore, the winning number display is also “3”.

  Subsequently, in FIG. 37 (i), ten game balls enter the second variable winning opening 235, and nine of them are treated as valid wins through the second count switch SW2, The main control unit winning counter 2 indicates that “9” is counted. The remaining one game ball has not yet passed through the second count switch SW2. Then, as described above, the sub-control unit winning counter is counted “10” including the passing of one game ball to the first count switch SW1 after the second round starts. The winning number display is also “10”. However, the value of the main control unit winning counter 2 indicates “9”, and in the second round, the number of winning game balls to the second variable winning opening 235 has not yet reached the maximum winning number. The 2 variable prize winning opening 235 is kept open. That is, FIG. 37 (i) shows that the number of winnings is “10” on the display in the decorative symbol display device 208, but the second round has not been finished yet.

  Subsequently, in FIG. 37 (j), the main control unit winning counter 2 becomes “10”, and the number of winnings to the second variable winning opening 234 becomes the maximum winning number, so the second variable winning opening 235 is closed. The second variable winning opening 235 is in the closed state. On the other hand, the decorative symbol display device 208 still displays 2R characters in the upper left corner and “decoration 7” in the upper right corner. In addition, the special display for the second round continues. That is, FIG. 37 (j) shows that the remaining sphere is detected. One scene of the effect display dedicated to the second round including the character C1 shown in FIG. 37 (j) (one scene with a different number of sparkling images br) corresponds to the opening end effect of the attacker in the second round. In FIG. 37 (j), there is no game ball that exceeds the maximum number of winnings in the second variable winning opening 235. In FIG. 37 (j), as described above, the sub-control unit winning counter is “11” including the passage of one game ball to the first count switch SW1 after the second round starts. Although it is counted, the winning number display remains “10”. Thus, in this embodiment, in the second round, the number of game balls won in the second variable prize opening 235 is 10, and no substantial overwinning has occurred, but the second round starts. Since one game ball has been awarded to the first variable prize opening 234 after that, it can be said that an apparent over-winning has occurred. In this case, “11” may be displayed on the winning display.

  Eventually, as shown in FIG. 38 (k), when the remaining sphere detection state ends and the interval between rounds is reached, the 2R character display at the upper left corner of the decorative symbol display device 208 disappears. At this time, an effect peculiar to the interval between rounds may be performed. In this embodiment, the round number display is erased at the timing after the second variable prize opening 235 is closed. However, the round number display may be erased at the timing at which the second variable prize opening 235 is closed. Good. In the present embodiment, the period of FIG. 38 (k) may be an interval between rounds, and the effect display including the character C1 shown in FIG. 37 (j) to FIG. Considering the effect, the period of FIG. 37 (j) to FIG. 38 (k) may be set as the interval between rounds.

  Subsequently, in FIG. 38 (l), the third round is started. The first variable winning opening 234 shown in FIG. 1 (l) is opened, and the first variable winning opening 234 is maintained in an open state, and the decorative symbol display device 208 displays an effect dedicated to the third round including the character C1. (An effect display in which the number of brilliant images br is different) is started, and a 3R character display (round number display) is performed in the upper left corner of the decorative symbol display device 208. Further, in FIG. 38 (l), there is still no winning in the first variable winning opening 234.

  FIG. 38 (i ′) and FIG. 38 (j ′) are the same as FIG. 37 (i) and FIG. 37 (j), but differ in that the speaker 120 is shown and an over winning sound is output. ing. Following FIG. 38 (i ′), in FIG. 38 (j ′), as described above with reference to FIG. 37 (j), no substantial over-winning has occurred, but the sub-control unit winning counter is “ 11 ”, and an over-winning sound is output from the speaker 120 when an apparent over-winning occurs. Note that the over winning sound that is output when a substantial over winning is generated may be the same as or different from the over winning sound that is output when an apparent over winning is generated. Also good. Further, as shown in FIG. 38 (j ″), the winning number display is made such that the winning number / maximum winning number from the start of the round to the variable winning opening (for example, FIG. 38 (j ″)) “10/10”) may be displayed.

  In the present embodiment, an over-winning sound is output when an apparent over-winning occurs. For example, there are eleven game balls at the variable winning holes 234 and 235, Over-winning sound even when an over-winning occurs (substantial over-winning occurs) in the remaining ball detection state before the opening of the variable winning openings 234, 235 after the round starts and during the interval between rounds May be output. Here, if the eleventh game ball is won after the start of the next round, the value of the sub-control unit winning counter is cleared when the second variable winning slot 235 is opened. If the eleventh game ball wins after the next round is started, no over winning sound is output.

  Further, in this production example, after the first variable winning opening 234 is changed from the open state to the closed state, the first variable winning opening 234 is awarded after the second variable winning opening 235 is opened. However, after the second variable winning port 235 is changed from the open state to the closed state, the first variable winning port 234 is opened and then the second variable winning port 235 is awarded. Needless to say, the same can be applied to the case.

  Further, in this production example, as in the above-described embodiment, the sub-control unit winning counter is for the first variable winning port 234 (sub-control unit winning counter 1) and for the second variable winning port 235 (sub-sub). The control unit winning counter 2) is separately provided, and the sub-control unit winning counter 1 counts the number of game balls won in the first variable winning slot 234, and wins in the second variable winning slot 235. You may comprise so that the sub control part winning counter 2 may count the number of game balls. In this case, for example, when the second round is started and the second variable prize opening 235 is changed from the closed state to the open state, the winning number display displayed on the decorative symbol display device 208 is “0”, and the second variable prize is displayed. Display of the number of winnings for the mouth 235 is started. Thereafter, when the game ball passes through the first count switch SW1 and is treated as a valid winning for the first variable winning opening 234, the number of winnings is displayed. May be configured to be counted up and displayed.

<Fifth Modification>
Next, a fifth modification of the pachinko machine 100 according to the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 39 and 40. FIG. FIG. 39 is a diagram for explaining other display modes in the jackpot game, and is a diagram showing step-by-step the effects displayed every time a game ball is won in the variable winning opening. ') Is a diagram for explaining another display mode following FIG. 39 (h), and FIG. 40 (l') is a diagram for explaining another display mode following FIG. 39 (j).

  FIG. 39 shows a decorative symbol display device 208. The number of balls entered to the first variable winning port 234 corresponding to the first variable winning port 234, the main control unit winning counter 1, and the second variable winning port. The number of balls entered into the second variable winning opening 235 corresponding to 235 and the main control unit winning counter 2 are shown.

  In FIG. 39A, after the first round, which is the first round in the jackpot game, is started and the first variable prize opening 234 is opened, one game ball enters the first variable prize opening 234. It is shown. In addition, 1R character display (round number display) is made at the upper left corner of the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. The round number display may be started at the timing after the first variable winning opening 234 is opened, or may be started at the same timing. Further, in the decorative symbol display device 208, as a big hit game effect, the character C2 of the Tono-sama waiting with boxing gloves on is displayed on the left side of the display screen, and a plurality of haniwa characters C3 imitating cacti are displayed. The effect display which shows a state where it walks in order from the right side of the screen toward the left side is performed. Here, the number of Minowa characters C3 appearing is the same number as the maximum winning number (for example, 10). This Minowa character C3 is a character that appears in a round in which the first variable prize opening 234 opens (that is, an odd number round).

  In FIG. 39 (b), one game ball to the first variable winning opening 234 is effectively won, and another game ball is received by the first variable winning opening 234 and still passes through the first count switch SW1. The state is not shown. As shown in FIG. 39 (b), in the decorative symbol display device 208, in response to the winning of a game ball to the first variable winning opening 234, Tono-sama character C2 pays a punch, and the punch is the head (one body). And the effect display of “Hit” to that effect is displayed superimposed on the character C3 of the leading Minowa. It should be noted that the “Hit” effect display may be displayed at a position that does not overlap the character C3 of the haniwa, or the “Hit” effect display may not be performed.

  Thereafter, as shown in FIGS. 39 (c) to (d), the leading mink character C3 punched by Tono-sama character C2 is erased, and a plurality of succeeding mink characters C3 are displayed on the left side of the display screen. There is an effect display of walking in a line-up direction (that is, toward Tono-sama character C2).

  If the same effect is performed for the second to eighth winning prizes at the first variable winning slot 234, and then there is a ninth winning prize at the first variable winning slot 234, FIG. As shown in e), in the decorative symbol display device 208, in response to the ninth prize winning in the first variable prize winning opening 234, the Tono-sama character C2 pays out a punch, and the punch is the ninth of the eaves. While hitting the character C3, an effect display of “Hit” to that effect is superimposed on the character C3 of the ninth haniwa. FIG. 39 (e) shows that the tenth game ball has been received by the first variable winning opening 234 but has not yet passed through the first count switch SW1.

  Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 39 (f) to FIG. 39 (g), the ninth mink character C3 punched by the Tono-sama character C2 is deleted, and the subsequent one mink character C3 is the Tono-sama character. An effect display of walking toward the character C2 is performed.

  Thereafter, when there is a tenth prize in the first variable prize opening 234, as shown in FIG. 39 (h), in the decorative symbol display device 208, the tenth prize in the first variable prize slot 234 is obtained. Correspondingly, Tono-sama's character C2 punches and the punch hits the tenth character of the haniwa C3, and an effect display of “Hit” to that effect is superimposed on the character C3 of the tenth haniwa. Is done. FIG. 39 (h) shows that the eleventh game ball has been received by the first variable winning opening 234 but has not yet passed through the first count switch SW1. The first variable winning opening 234 is closed when the tenth winning prize is received.

  FIG. 39 (i) shows a state in the remaining sphere detection state. In FIG. 39 (i), the first ball is entered in the first variable winning opening 234 in FIG. 39 (h), and the first game ball that has been rolling in the first variable winning opening 234 is in the remaining ball detection state. A state is shown in which “11”, which is the eleventh prize, is counted by the main control unit prize counter 1 through the count switch SW1. Then, the eleventh winning in the first variable winning opening 234 causes an overwinning, and in the decorative symbol display device 208, one character C3 of a haniwa appears newly, and the character C2 of Tono-sama punches. When the punch hits the new eleventh character C3 of the elbow, as shown in FIG. 39 (j), the eleventh elephant character C3 blows off to the right side of the display screen and disappears outside the screen. An effect display is displayed. In this embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 39 (i) to (j), when the remaining sphere is detected, the 1R round number display displayed in the upper left corner of the decorative symbol display device 208 is erased. However, the round number display may be continuously displayed without being erased.

  Thereafter, at the interval between rounds, as shown in FIG. 39 (k), the decorative symbol display device 208 performs an effect display that delights that the Tono-sama character C2 has won the character C3 of the haniwa.

  Subsequently, FIG. 39 (l) shows a state in which the second round is started and the second variable winning opening 234 is opened. In addition, 2R round number display is performed at the upper left corner of the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. Further, in the decorative symbol display device 208, as a big hit game effect, the Tono-like character C2 is continuously displayed on the left side of the display screen, and a plurality of mingle characters C4 imitating cactus are directed from the right side to the left side of the display screen. An effect display showing the state of walking in alignment is performed. Here, the number of Minowa characters C4 appearing is the same as the maximum number of winning prizes (for example, 10). This Minowa character C4 is a character that appears in a round in which the second variable prize opening 235 is opened (that is, an even number round), and has a different pattern from the Minowa character C3 shown in FIG. .

  Next, an effect performed when an over winning is generated in the interval between rounds will be described with reference to FIG. 40 (k ′).

  FIG. 40 (k1 ′) shows a state in which the first variable prize winning opening 234 is in a closed state, and a period in which a remaining ball is detected has elapsed and an interval between rounds has been reached. FIG. 40 (k1 ′) shows that the eleventh game ball has been received by the first variable winning opening 234, but has not yet passed through the first count switch SW1. As shown in FIG. 40 (k1 ′), the content of the effect display on the decorative symbol display device 208 is the same as that in FIG. 39 (k).

  In FIG. 40 (k2 ′), the game ball rolling in the first variable winning opening 234 passes through the first count switch SW1, and the main control unit winning counter 1 is “11” which is the eleventh winning. It is shown that is counted. When an over winning is generated by the eleventh winning at the first variable winning opening 234, as shown in FIG. 40 (k2 ′) to FIG. An effect display is shown in which the thousand-thousand box image C5 in which is stored falls from above the display screen. As described above, in the present embodiment, the content of the presentation is different between the case where the over winning is generated in the period of the remaining ball detection state and the case where the over winning is generated in the period of the interval between rounds. Some or all of them may be the same.

  Thus, in the present embodiment, the decorative symbol display device 208 functions as an example of a first effect that can start an over-winning effect during the execution of the inter-round interval effect.

  Next, an effect performed when an over winning is generated after the start of the next round will be described with reference to FIG. 40 (l ′).

  FIG. 40 (l1 ′) shows a state in which the second round is started and the second variable winning opening 235 is opened. In FIG. 40 (l1 ′), the eleventh game ball is received in the first variable winning opening 234 in the first round, but after the second round starts and the second variable winning opening 235 is opened. Also, it is shown that the first count switch SW1 has not been passed yet. Note that, as shown in FIG. 40 (l1 ′), the decorative symbol display device 208 displays the same display as in FIG. 39 (l). FIG. 40 (l1 ′) shows a state in which one game ball has entered the second variable winning opening 235 but has not yet passed through the first count switch SW1.

  Thereafter, at the timing shown in FIG. 40 (l2-1 ′), the game ball rolling in the first variable winning opening 234 passes through the first count switch SW1, and the main control unit winning counter 1 is the eleventh. The winning prize “11” is counted, and the game ball that has entered the second variable winning slot 235 in FIG. 40 (l1 ′) passes through the second count switch SW2, and the main control unit winning counter 2 is set to 1. A state where “1” which is the first prize is counted is shown. Then, as shown in FIG. 40 (l2-1 ′), in the decorative symbol display device 208, an over-winning has occurred due to the eleventh winning in the first variable winning opening 234. "Hit" is displayed, and in response to the game ball winning in the second variable winning opening 235, Tono-sama's character C2 delivers a punch, and the punch is the leading (first body) of the Minowa While hitting the character C4, an effect display of “Hit” to that effect is displayed superimposed on the character C4 of the leading haniwa. That is, in FIG. 40 (l2-1 ′), it is shown that an effect corresponding to the over winning at the first variable prize opening 234 and an effect according to the winning at the second variable prize opening 235 are performed simultaneously. Has been.

  In FIG. 40 (l2-2 ′), the game ball that has been rolling in the first variable winning opening 234 passes through the first count switch SW1, and the main control unit winning counter 1 is the eleventh winning. While a certain “11” is counted, in FIG. 40 (l1 ′), it is shown that the game ball that has entered the second variable winning opening 235 has not yet passed through the second count switch SW2. Then, as shown in FIG. 40 (l2-2 ′), in the decorative symbol display device 208, an over-winning has occurred due to the eleventh winning in the first variable winning opening 234, so The effect of “Hit” is displayed, but there is no effect of punching the character C4 of the leading haniwa. Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 40 (l2-3 ′), the game ball that has entered the second variable winning opening 235 passes through the second count switch SW2, and the main control unit winning counter 2 is the first one. When the winning “1” is counted, in response to this, in the decorative symbol display device 208, the Tono-sama character C2 pays out the punch, and the punch hits the leading (first body) character C4 of the heel, An effect display of “Hit” to that effect is displayed superimposed on the character C4 of the leading haniwa. As described above, an effect corresponding to the over winning in the first variable prize opening 234 and an effect corresponding to the winning in the second variable prize opening 235 may be performed before and after.

  Thus, in the present embodiment, the decorative symbol display device 208 functions as an example of a first effect unit that can execute an over effect when a game ball enters the variable winning means exceeding the maximum number of winnings. doing.

<Sixth Modification>
Next, referring to FIGS. 41 to 43, a reference product describes a sixth modification of the pachinko machine 100 according to the present embodiment. The sixth modified example is a modified example of the rank-up bonus described above. Here, FIG. 41 is a timing chart for explaining the operation from the start to the end of the jackpot game with 15R jackpot (substantially 8R-RUB), and FIG. 42 is the jackpot game with 15R jackpot (substantially 8R-RUB). FIG. 43 is a diagram showing the continuation of the jackpot game in the 15R jackpot (substantially 8R-RUB) shown in FIG. 42 in stages. In the jackpot game in the sixth modified example, the first variable winning opening 234 is opened in the first round to the fourth round and the sixth round to the eighth round, and the second round in the fifth round and the ninth to fifteenth rounds. The variable winning opening 235 is configured to open.

  First, with reference to FIG. 41, an example of operation timings of the first variable winning port 234 and the second variable winning port 235 between rounds in the jackpot game executed by the pachinko machine 100 of the present embodiment will be described.

  In FIG. 41, in order from the top, the fluctuation state of the special figure 1, the operating state of the accessory continuous operating device and the condition device, the state of the large winning port 1 solenoid that opens and closes the first variable winning port 234, the first The operating state of the special electric combination (special electric combination 1) related to the variable prize opening 234, the setting state of the special electric prize winning detection timer (special electric combination 1 winning detection timer) related to the first variable prize opening 234, the first count switch SW1 Valid / invalid state, state of a large winning port 2 solenoid that opens and closes the second variable winning port 235, operating state of a special electric accessory (special electric role 2) related to the second variable winning port 235, second variable winning port The setting state of the special power combination winning detection timer (special power combination 2 winning detection timer) according to H.235 and the valid / invalid state of the second count switch SW2 are shown.

  As shown in FIG. 41, a big hit game with 15R big hit (substantially 8R-RUB) is started, and the first variable winning opening 234 is opened and closed from the first round to the seventh round, and then in the eighth round After the first variable winning opening 234 is opened, the timing of td01 is reached when the winning timer of the game ball with the maximum number of winnings to the first variable winning opening 234 or the opening timer set by the set special electric character operation data elapses. Then, the driving of the first prize winning port 1 solenoid is stopped and the first variable winning prize port 234 is closed. At this time, the above-mentioned special power combination operation interval timer is set, and a predetermined time (for example, 3 seconds) is set in the special power combination winning detection timer (special power combination 1 winning detection timer) related to the first variable winning opening 234. . In the present embodiment, in a state where the special electric combination 1 winning detection timer is set, the first count switch SW1 is maintained in an effective state even after the special electric combination 1 is inactivated. The special electric role 1 is in an operating state after the first variable winning opening 234 is closed until the round is ended, that is, until the period (δ1) set by the special electric character operation interval timer elapses. It has become.

  When the period (δ1) set by the special electric function operating interval timer elapses and the timing of td02 is reached, the eighth round ends, the special electric service 1 is changed from the operating state to the non-operating state, and the special electric operation delay timer is set. The Thereafter, when the period (ε1) set by the special power combination operation delay timer elapses and the timing of td3 is reached, the ninth round is started, and the special power combination 2 is changed from the inoperative state to the activated state. In the present embodiment, the special electric combination 1 and the special electric combination 2 do not operate simultaneously. Since the second variable winning opening 235 is opened from the start of the round, the large winning opening 2 solenoid is also driven at this time, and the second variable winning opening 235 is opened. Further, the second count switch SW2 changes from the invalid state to the valid state at the timing when the special power combination 2 is activated. As a result, when the game ball that has entered the second variable prize opening 235 passes through the second count switch SW2, this can be detected effectively, and it can be treated as having been awarded effectively to the second variable prize opening 235. It becomes like this. In this embodiment, since it is a big hit of substantially 8R, the opening time of the variable winning opening from the ninth round to the fifteenth round is very short (for example, 0.2 seconds), and the opening is short. It is almost impossible to expect a game ball to enter the 2 variable prize opening 235. In the present embodiment, since the first count switch SW1 is in the valid state until the period set by the special electric winning combination 1 winning detection timer elapses even after the second variable winning opening 235 is opened, When the two variable winning opening 235 is in an open state, a game ball that has entered the first variable winning opening 234 in the previous round may pass through the first count switch SW1 and be detected as winning. Note that the second count switch SW2 may change from the invalid state to the valid state at the timing when the second variable prize winning opening 235 is first opened after the round starts.

  After that, when the maximum number of game balls won in the second variable prize opening 235 or the release timer set by the set special electric character operation data elapses, the large prize opening 2 solenoid is driven at the timing of t04. It stops and the 2nd variable prize winning opening 235 will be in a closed state. Since the ninth round is a short opening round, the second variable winning slot 235 is not closed due to the winning of a game ball with the maximum number of winnings. The variable winning opening 235 is closed. At this time, the above-mentioned special power combination operation interval timer is set, and a predetermined time (for example, 3 seconds) is set in the special power combination winning detection timer (special power combination 2 winning detection timer) related to the second variable winning opening 235. . In the present embodiment, the time set by the special power duty operation interval timer is the round in which the variable winning opening is in the short open round, for example, the round in which the variable winning opening is in the long open (for example, the eighth round described above). Although it is shorter than the set time (for example, 0.2 seconds), it may be longer than the time set for the long open round of the variable winning opening.

  When the period (δ2) set by the special electric function operating interval timer elapses and the timing of td05 is reached, the ninth round is completed, the special electric service 2 is changed from the operating state to the non-operating state, and the special electric operation delay timer is set. The In the present embodiment, the time set by the special power activation delay timer is the round in which the variable prize opening is long open (for example, the eighth round described above) when the variable prize opening is in the short open round. Although it is shorter than the set time (for example, 0.3 seconds), it may be longer than the time set for the long open round for the variable winning opening. Thereafter, when the period (ε2) set by the special power combination operation delay timer elapses and the timing of td06 is reached, the tenth round is started, and the special power combination 2 is changed from the non-operating state to the operating state. At this time, since the second count switch SW2 is configured to be valid at the timing when the special electric combination 2 is activated, it is not necessary to count the time set by the special electric combination 2 winning detection timer. The special electric character 2 winning detection timer is cleared and is not set. In the present embodiment, even after the ninth round is finished and the tenth round is started, the period set by the special electric utility 1 winning detection timer has not elapsed, and the first count switch SW1 is turned on over two rounds. It will be valid.

  Thereafter, the above-described operation is repeatedly executed until the 15th round is completed (td06 to td16).

  In this way, the big hit game is performed, and at the timing of td16, the big hit end effect is started, and this big hit end effect is performed until the period (ζ1) set by the hit end display timer elapses.

  When the big hit end effect is finished and the timing of td17 is reached, the big hit game is finished (the continuous action device and the condition device are changed from the operating state to the non-operating state), and thereafter, it is held at the timing of td18. Symbol variation starts. In this embodiment, even after the big hit end effect is finished and the symbol variation of special figure 1 is started, the period set by the special electric utility 2 winning detection timer has not elapsed, and the big hit game is ended and the symbol variation is finished. Even after starting, the second count switch SW2 is enabled.

  Thereafter, when the period set by the special power combination 2 winning detection timer elapses, the second count switch SW2 becomes invalid at the timing of td19.

  Next, specific examples of effects will be described with reference to FIGS.

  42, the decorative symbol display device 208, the first special figure display device 212, the second special figure display device 214, the universal figure display device 210, the special figure 1 hold lamp 218, the special figure 2 hold lamp 220, and the universal figure hold. A lamp 216 is shown. FIG. 42 also shows a first variable winning port 234 that is a first attacker and a second variable winning port 235 that is a second attacker. Corresponding to the number of balls entered into the variable winning port 234, the main control unit winning counter 1, the sub control unit winning counter 1, and the second variable winning port 235, the number of balls entered into the second variable winning port 235, the main control A part winning counter 2 and a sub-control part winning counter 2 are shown. Further, the main control unit winning counter 1 and the main control unit winning counter 2 store the number of wins to the first variable winning port 234 and the second variable winning port 235 stored in the RAM 308 of the main control unit 300 in one round. It is a counter shown. The sub-control unit winning counter 1 and the sub-control unit winning counter 2 are stored in the RAM 308 of the sub-control unit 400 and indicate the number of winnings to the first variable winning port 234 and the second variable winning port 235 in one round. It is. The sub-control unit winning counter 1 and the sub-control unit winning counter 2 are counted when a large winning opening winning command is received from the main control unit 300. Furthermore, in this embodiment, the speaker 120 is also shown in FIG.

  In FIG. 42 (a), as a big hit game start effect, a character image of “rank up bonus” is displayed together with a background image (not shown here) celebrating the big hit. In addition, the display of the fluctuation icon display area 280, the hold icon display area 281 of FIG. 1, and the 4th symbol display area 284 has disappeared.

  In FIG. 42 (b), the first round which is the first round of the 15 round big hit (substantial 8 round big hit) game is started. The first variable winning opening 234 shown in FIG. 42B is opened, and the first variable winning opening 234 is maintained in the open state. In addition, a winning total number display is displayed on the upper right of the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. In the rank-up bonus in this production example, it is difficult for the player to specify whether the expected round of playing continues up to 4 rounds, up to 8 rounds, or up to 15 rounds at least when the big hit game starts. Therefore, in FIG. 42 (b), as the total number of winning balls that can be earned, 600 rounds (one game ball winning in a variable winning slot), assuming that at least four rounds can be expected to continue. “600 pt” corresponding to the number of winning balls (15) × maximum winning number (10) × number of rounds (4 rounds) in one round is displayed. FIG. 42 (b) shows a state in which one game ball is effectively won in the first variable winning opening 234, and the display “15” corresponding to the number of winning prize balls (15) is decorated. This is shown by the total number of winnings displayed on the symbol display device 208. In addition, below the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 42B, a total of 20 winning icons indicating the number of winnings are displayed in a row, 10 in the upper row and 10 in the lower row. Each time two game balls are won in the variable winning openings 234 and 235, the winning icon is changed from the non-winning display mode to the winning display mode one by one from the upper left to the right. It has become. In other words, these 20 icons indicate the number of game balls won in the variable winning openings 234 and 235 from the first round to the fourth round.

  FIG. 42 (c) shows a state where the fourth round is executed. As shown in FIG. 42 (c), the first variable winning opening 234 is open, and the first variable winning opening 234 is in an open state. In FIG. 42 (b), nine game balls to the first variable winning opening 234 are effectively won, and further, one game ball is received by the first variable winning opening 234, and still the first count switch SW1. The state of not passing through is shown. In FIG. 42 (b), the number of winning prize balls is 39.times.15 = 585 because the number of winning prizes in the variable winning opening from the start of the big hit game is 39. Therefore, in the decorative symbol display device 208, the display “585” corresponding to the number of 585 winning balls is displayed as the total winning display. In addition, with respect to the winning icons, all the display modes are changed to the winning display mode except for the icons displayed in the lower row of the rightmost column. Of the icons whose display modes have changed, eleven winning icons are displayed in a thousand-thousand-box symbol display mode, and the remaining eight winning icons are in a default (black circle) display mode. In this production example, it may be suggested that the more winning icons that have changed to the display form of a thousand-thousand-box pattern as the display form that has been awarded, the higher the degree of expectation that the round in which the player can expect to continue will be continued after the fourth round. it can. In other words, in the case of 15R big hit (substantially 8R-RUB) or 15R big hit (15R-RUB), it is easy to change to the display mode of the symbol of the thousand-thousand boxes. On the other hand, in the case of 15R big hit (substantially 4R-RUB), it is easy to change to the default display mode.

  In FIG. 42D, the main control unit winning counter 1 becomes “10”, and the number of winnings in the first variable winning opening 234 becomes the maximum winning number, so the first variable winning opening 234 is closed and the first variable winning opening 234 is closed. The winning opening 234 is in a closed state. In the decorative symbol display device 208, the display “600” corresponding to the number of 600 winning balls is displayed as the total winning display. In addition, the winning icon displayed in the lower row of the rightmost column changes from the non-winning display mode to the display mode of the symbol box pattern. In this production example, even if an overwinning occurs, display exceeding “600” is not performed, but the number of overwinnings may be added and displayed.

  FIG. 42 (e) shows a state in which the fifth round is executed. When the fifth round is started, the second variable winning opening 235 performs, for example, short opening (for example, opening for 0.2 seconds) a plurality of times (for example, 10 times). Then, in the decorative symbol display device 208, together with a button image simulating the effect button 136, a character “whether it is continued” indicating that the player expects whether or not a round in which a game can be expected continues after the fifth round. Display (continuation permission / inhibition display) is made. In addition, a remaining time display bar indicating the remaining time of the reception period of the operation of the effect button 136 is also displayed. In the big hit game with 15R big hit (substantially 4R-RUB), the first variable winning opening 234 or the second variable winning opening 235 is opened shortly once in the fifth to fifteenth rounds.

  FIG. 43 (f) shows a state in which a long opening (for example, 17 seconds opening) is performed after 10 short opening is performed by the second variable prize opening 235 in the fifth round. Yes. That is, the second variable prize opening 235 is open, and the second variable prize opening 235 is being maintained in an open state. Also, in this production example, since it is a big hit game of 15R big hit (substantially 8R-RUB), the decorative symbol display device 208 informs that the round that can be expected to continue continues after the fifth round. Character display (continuous display) is made. Thus, the player may be able to recognize that the current big hit is either a 15R big hit (15R-RUB) or a 15R big hit (substantially 8R-RUB). This continuous display is executed at the timing when the effect button 136 is operated or when the reception period of the operation of the effect button 136 elapses. Since the timing at which the second variable winning opening 235 is long opened is determined in advance, the timing of the operation by the effect button 136 is a timing considerably before the timing of the reception period of the operation of the effect button 136. In this case, the second variable prize winning opening 235 is in a state of waiting while displaying the continuous display shown in FIG. In the big hit game with 15R big hit (substantially 4R-RUB), after the character display (end display) “Sorry.” Which will be described later is performed, the big hit game is ended. Further, when an over-winning occurs when the above-described continuation display or continuation permission / inhibition display is performed, an over-winning sound may be output from the speaker 120 or may not be output.

  FIG. 43 (g) shows a state after the continuous display is completed in the fifth round. In FIG. 43 (g), the display content of the total prize display is changed. At the timing shown in FIG. 43 (g), it is possible for the player to recognize that at least 8 rounds will continue, so that the number of winning balls that can be expected will continue until at least 8 rounds. “1200 pt” corresponding to 1200 (the number of winning balls (15) × maximum winning number in one round (10) × number of rounds (8 rounds)) for winning one game ball in the variable winning opening Is displayed. Also, the winning icons displayed on the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 43 (g) are all changed from the winning display mode to the non-winning display mode. As a result, it is possible to indicate the number of game balls won in the variable winning openings 234 and 235 from the fifth round to the eighth round. Note that, as shown in FIG. 42 (e), in the period in which a plurality of short releases are performed in the fifth round, it is normally impossible to expect game balls to win the second variable winning opening 235. When a game ball is won in the second variable winning slot 235 during this period, “615/1200 pt” may be displayed from the beginning in the display of the number of winning balls in FIG. / 1200 pt "may be displayed. Further, an over win for one ball has already occurred at the timing shown in FIG. 42 (d), and the display is made in such a manner that the over win is not included in the number of winning balls (for example, “600/600 pt” is displayed). ), The number of award winning balls is not included even if an over-winning portion is included even if a display that increases the total number of winning award balls (for example, a display that changes from “600 pt” to “1200 pt”) is performed. You may make it display (for example, display of "600 / 1200pt"), and you may make it display the number of winning prize balls (for example, display of "615 / 1200pt") including the amount of over winning. . Alternatively, at the timing shown in FIG. 43 (d), for example, when the number of winning prizes already included is included in the number of winning prizes such as “615 / 600pt” at the timing shown in FIG. , “615/1200 pt” may be displayed, or “600/1200 pt” may be displayed without including over-winning.

  In FIG. 43 (h), during execution of the eighth round, the main control unit winning counter 1 becomes “10” and the number of winnings in the first variable winning opening 234 becomes the maximum winning number. 234 is shown closed. In the decorative symbol display device 208, the display “1200” corresponding to the number of 1200 winning balls is displayed as the total winning display. In addition, the winning icons displayed on the decorative symbol display device 208 have all changed to the winning display mode, and the three winning icons among the icons whose display mode has changed become the display mode of the symbols of the thousand boxes. The remaining 17 winning icons are in a default (black circle) display mode. That is, the player may recognize that the degree of expectation that the round in which the player can expect to play is continued after the ninth round is low. In FIG. 43 (h), the second variable winning opening 235 is opened in the fifth round and ten game balls are won, and then the second variable winning opening 235 is not opened. Neither the winning prize counter 2 nor the sub-control winning prize counter 2 is cleared and remains “10”. In FIG. 43 (h), one game ball (remaining ball) that has been accepted by the first variable winning opening 234 but has not yet passed through the first count switch SW1 is transferred within the first variable winning opening 234. It is shown moving. This game ball h is the eleventh game ball to be awarded to the first variable winning port 234, and can be said to be a game ball that will be won beyond the maximum number of wins (over-win).

  When the eighth round ends and the interval between rounds starts, the decorative symbol display device 208 performs the display shown in FIG. 42 (e) described above, and then, as shown in FIG. "Sorry .." is displayed to indicate that the expected round has ended in the eighth round. Thereby, it may be possible for the player to recognize that the rank-up bonus is substantially 8R. Thereafter, the operation of opening the second variable prize winning opening 235 for a short time only is performed in the ninth to fifteenth rounds. Note that FIG. 43 (i) shows that the game ball that has entered the first variable prize opening 234 in the eighth round has not yet passed through the first count switch SW1, and is still rolling. Yes. Note that, when the game ball passes through the first count switch SW1 during the interval between rounds and an overwin is generated, an overwin is output during the interval between rounds.

  FIG. 44 (j) shows a state in which a big hit end effect is performed. In the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 43 (j), since it was a rank-up bonus of 8R, a character display of “1200 pt GET sure change entry” for notifying that the number of winning prize balls was 1200 was performed. It has been broken. On the other hand, FIG. 42 (j) shows a state in which the game ball that has been rolling in the first variable prize winning opening 234 in FIG. 42 (i) has passed through the first count switch SW1. At this time, since the special electric combination 1 winning detection timer is set and the passing of the game ball to the first count switch SW1 is effectively handled, it is treated as an effective winning to the first variable winning opening 234, The main control unit winning counter 1 and the sub control unit winning counter 1 both count “11”, which is the eleventh winning. Then, an over winning is generated by the eleventh winning in the first variable winning opening 234, and as shown in FIG. 31 (g), an over winning sound for notifying the fact is output from the speaker 120. As described above, the over winning sound is generated when the special winning combination 1 winning detection timer is set regardless of whether the variable winning opening is in an open state or a closed state. Output when there is a game ball. In the present embodiment, the above-described display of the number of winning balls is not included in the over winning prize, but may be included in the over winning prize. In addition, in this production example, for example, during the execution of the big hit end production, the execution of the design fluctuation display, the execution of the production display in the standby state in which the design fluctuation is not performed and there is no hold, etc. When it is being executed, the over winning effect may not be executed. Moreover, although the data for outputting the over winning sound is set, for example, it may be configured to be overwritten by data for outputting other effect sound.

  In the above description, the description is given of the effect that is performed when an over-winning to the first variable winning port 234 occurs. It goes without saying that it is possible.

  Further, in the above-described embodiment, the over winning effect is configured to be executable while the winning detection timers (special feature 1 winning detection timer, special feature 2 winning detection timer) are set. Even when the detection timer is set, if the predetermined condition is satisfied, the over winning effect may not be executed. For example, after the first sub control unit 400 receives the winning end command or after the winning end display timer is set by the main control unit 300, the over winning effect is not executed even when the winning detection timer is set. You may do it. Also, for example, when the winning detection timer is set after the big hit game is finished and the first sub-control unit 400 receives the waiting command for change or after the main control unit 300 times out the hit end display timer. However, the over winning effect may not be executed. Further, after the first sub-control unit 400 receives the first change start command after the big hit game ends, the over-winning effect may not be executed even if the winning detection timer is set.

[Second Embodiment]
Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described. Hereinafter, the description will focus on differences from the embodiments described above.

  FIG. 44 is a diagram illustrating the front of the attacker unit 2340, and FIG. 45 is a diagram of the attacker unit 2340 as viewed from the back.

  The attacker unit 2340 includes a first variable winning opening 234a as an example of a first variable winning means and a second variable winning opening 235a as an example of a second variable winning means, and the first variable winning opening 235a shown in FIG. Instead of the winning opening 234 and the second variable winning opening 235, for example, it is attached to the lower right of the game area 124 in the game board 200.

  The attacker unit 2340 has, for example, a flat plate shape, and includes an attachment base 2340a for attaching to the front surface of the game board 200, and a decorative member 2340b attached to the front surface of the attachment base 2340a with a predetermined interval. .

  In the mounting base 2340a, a rectangular opening is formed in the approximate center near the upper end, and a plate-like first door member 2341a is attached so as to cover the opening. The lower end of the first door member 2341a is pivotally supported by the mounting base 2340a, and can be opened and closed forward by driving the solenoid SOL1 mounted on the rear side of the mounting base 2340a. The solenoid SOL1 is included in the various solenoids 332 described above and is driven by the drive circuit 334. In the present embodiment, the first variable winning opening 234a is configured as described above. On the back side of the mounting base 2340a, there is formed a winning path for discharging the gaming balls that have entered the first variable winning opening 234a downward, and a first position that detects the passage of the gaming balls is detected at a predetermined position of the winning path. A count switch SW1 is provided.

  A second variable prize opening 235a, which will be described later, is formed between the mounting base 2340a and the decorative member 2340b. Hereinafter, the configuration of the second variable prize winning opening 235a will be described in detail with reference to FIGS. 46 (a) and 46 (b). FIG. 46 is a view for explaining the internal structure of the second variable winning opening 235a, and FIG. 46 (a) is a view showing that the V shutter 2352a as an example of the variable pitching means is in a closed state. FIG. 46B is a diagram showing that the V shutter 2352a is in an open state. 46 (a) and 46 (b), the decorative member 2340b is shown in a transparent manner in order to easily describe the internal structure of the second variable prize winning opening 235a.

  As shown in FIGS. 46 (a) and 46 (b), the decorative member 2340b has a wall surface having a bottom surface 2340c, an upper surface 2340d, and a side surface 2340e erected rearward from the back surface of the plate surface 2340f. The decoration member 2340b is formed with a first rolling region SP1 and a second rolling region SP2 on which a game ball can roll by a wall surface, and an open portion behind the first rolling region SP1 is closed by the front surface of the mounting base 2340a.

  The upper part of the first rolling region SP1 is open, and a plate-like shutter member 2351a is provided so as to be able to advance and retreat in the depth direction with respect to the mounting base 2340a so as to cover the open part. The shutter member 2351a is configured to be displaceable by driving a solenoid SOL2 (see FIG. 45). The solenoid SOL2 is included in the various solenoids 332 described above, and is driven by the drive circuit 334. That is, in this embodiment, when the shutter member 2351a is in a state of being advanced forward (closed state) with respect to the mounting base 2340a, the first rolling region SP1 is closed and the first ball of the game ball is closed. When the entry to the rolling area SP1 is blocked and the vehicle is in the backwardly retracted state (open state), the first rolling area SP1 is opened and the game ball enters the first rolling area SP1. Entry is allowed.

  A second count switch SW2 for detecting the passage of the game ball is disposed at a position where the first rolling area SP1 and the second rolling area SP2 are connected to each other. When the entered game ball rolls on the bottom surface 2340c and is guided leftward, it passes through the second count switch SW2. The second count switch SW2 is included in the various sensors 320 described above, and is configured such that a detection signal is input to the sensor circuit 322. In the present embodiment, when the CPU 304 of the main control unit 300 detects the passing of a game ball to the second count switch SW2, it detects a winning at the second variable winning opening 235a and pays out a winning ball based on the winning. Process.

  The game ball that has passed through the second count switch SW2 is guided to the second rolling region SP2. The second rolling region SP2 is configured such that a V passage 2340g and a general passage 2340h are juxtaposed in the left-right direction, and the received game ball is guided to one of the passages and discharged downward. . The V passage 2340g is provided with a V passage switch SW3, and the game ball guided by the V passage 2340g is configured to pass through the V passage switch SW3. Thus, it can be said that the V passage 2340g is an area provided at a position where at least a game ball that has entered the second variable prize opening 235a can enter. The V-pass switch SW3 is included in the various sensors 320 described above, and is configured such that a detection signal is input to the sensor circuit 322. In the present embodiment, when the CPU 304 of the main control unit 300 detects the passage of the game ball to the V pass switch SW3, it can be determined that the game ball has passed through the V passage 2340g. A plate-like V shutter 2352a is provided so as to be able to advance and retreat in the depth direction with respect to the mounting base 2340a so as to cover the upper portion of the V passage 2340g. The V shutter 23521a is configured to be displaceable by driving a solenoid SOL3 (see FIG. 45). The solenoid SOL3 is included in the various solenoids 332 described above, and is driven by the drive circuit 334. That is, in the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 46 (a), when the V shutter 2352a is in the forwardly advanced state (closed state) with respect to the mounting base 2340a, the game ball to the V passage 2340g The game ball that has been prevented from entering and has entered the second rolling region SP2 rolls on the upper surface of the V shutter 2352a and is guided to the general passage 2340h. On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 46B, when the V shutter 2352a is in a state of being retracted backward (opened) with respect to the mounting base 2340a, the entry of the game ball into the V passage 2340g is permitted. The game ball that has entered the second rolling region SP2 is guided to the V passage 2340g. In the following description, the solenoid SOL3 may be referred to as a positive variation operating region solenoid. In addition, a discharge ball detection switch SW4 is disposed in the general passage 2340h, and a game ball guided in the general passage 2340h is configured to pass through the discharge ball detection switch SW4. The discharged ball detection switch SW4 is included in the various sensors 320 described above, and is configured such that a detection signal is input to the sensor circuit 322. In the present embodiment, when the CPU 304 of the main control unit 300 detects the passage of the game ball to the discharge ball detection switch SW4, it detects that the game ball has passed through the general passage 2340h.

  In the present embodiment, by configuring as described above, for example, the second variable of the game ball is determined by the number of passes of the game ball of the second count switch SW2 and the number of passes of the V pass switch SW3 and the discharge ball detection switch SW4. By monitoring in / out of the winning opening 235a, it may be possible to monitor illegally passing a game ball to the V passage 2340g. Specifically, the number of game balls detected by the second count switch SW2 of the second variable winning opening 235a is counted as the number (IN number) received by the second variable winning opening 235a and stored in the RAM 308. On the other hand, the total number of game balls detected by each of the V passing switch SW3 and the discharge ball detection switch SW4 is counted as the number discharged (OUT number) from the second variable winning opening 235a and stored in the RAM 308. . Then, for these IN number and OUT number, for example, in the above-mentioned special electric power remaining sphere detection process, a process for confirming whether the IN number and the OUT number match is executed. Is determined to be in an over-winning state, and when the number of INs is smaller than the number of OUTs, it is possible to determine a winning error by determining in an over-discharge state. Examples of the illegal act include an act using a ball with a thread or a game ball having a size larger than a regulation (so-called decaball).

  Further, in the present embodiment, only the game ball that has entered the second variable prize opening 235a can enter the V path 2340g, and the game ball that has entered the first variable prize opening 234a has the above-described configuration. It is configured not to enter 2340g.

  In the present embodiment, for example, on the condition that the game ball has passed through the V pass switch SW3 in the jackpot game, after the jackpot game is over, the special figure high probability normal figure high probability state (probability change state), and in the jackpot game When the game ball does not pass through the V passing switch SW3, it is possible to shift to the special figure low probability normal figure high probability state (time-short state) after the big hit game ends.

  In addition, for example, when the game ball that has entered the second variable winning opening 235a passes through the V passing switch SW3 during the period from the start to the end of the small hit game (during the period of the small hit game), the first variable You may make it perform the big hit game which opens and closes the winning opening 234a by a predetermined special electric power operation pattern.

  Next, an example of the operation timing of the first variable winning port 234a and the second variable winning port 235a between rounds in the jackpot game executed by the pachinko machine 100 of the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 47 is a timing chart for explaining the operation timing of the first variable winning opening and the second variable winning opening in the big hit game with 15R special big hit. Here, the 15R special jackpot means that it is easy to enter the second variable winning opening 235a and the passing of the game ball to the V-pass switch SW3 can be expected. It is a big hit that can be expected to shift.

  In FIG. 47, in order from the top, the operating state of the accessory continuous operating device and the condition device, the state of the large winning port 1 solenoid that opens and closes the first variable winning port 234a, and the special that relates to the first variable winning port 234a. The operating state of the electric component (special electric component 1), the setting state of the special electric component winning detection timer (special electric component 1 winning detection timer) related to the first variable winning port 234a, the valid / invalid state of the first count switch SW1, the second The state of the large winning opening 2 solenoid that opens and closes the variable winning opening 235a, the operating state of the special electric accessory (special electric combination 2) related to the second variable winning opening 235, and the special electric winning combination detection related to the second variable winning opening 235a The setting state of the timer (special electric role 2 winning detection timer), the valid / invalid state of the second count switch SW2, the state of the probability variation operating region solenoid SOL3 that drives the V shutter 2352a to open and close, V Switch Enable / disable state of (probability variation operating range) SW3, the presence or absence of detection of passage of the game ball into the probability variation operating range is shown.

  As shown in FIG. 47, after the big hit game of 15R special big hit is started, at the timing of tc01, a predetermined first round (for example, the 12th round) is started, and the special electric role 1 is operated from the inactive state. It becomes a state. Since the first variable winning opening 234a is opened from the start of the round, the large winning opening 1 solenoid is also driven at this time, and the first variable winning opening 234a is opened. Further, the first count switch SW1 changes from the invalid state to the valid state at the timing when the special electric utility 1 is activated. As a result, when the game ball that has entered the first variable prize opening 234 passes through the first count switch SW1, this can be detected effectively, and it can be treated as having been awarded effectively to the first variable prize opening 234a. It becomes like this.

  Thereafter, when the above-mentioned maximum number of winning game balls have been won in the first variable winning opening 234a or when the release timer set by the set special electric character operation data elapses, at the timing of tc02, The driving is stopped and the first variable winning opening 234a is closed. At this time, the above-described special power combination operation interval timer is set, and a predetermined time (for example, 3 seconds) is set in the special power combination winning detection timer (special power combination 1 winning detection timer) related to the first variable winning opening 234a. . In the present embodiment, in a state where the special electric combination 1 winning detection timer is set, the first count switch SW1 is maintained in an effective state even after the special electric combination 1 is inactivated. Note that the special electric role 1 is in an operating state after the first variable winning opening 234a is closed until the round ends, that is, until the period (δ1) set by the special electric character operation interval timer elapses. It has become.

  When the period (δ1) set by the special power combination operation interval timer elapses and the timing of tc03 is reached, the first round is ended, and the special power combination 1 is changed from the operating state to the non-operating state, and the special power combination operation delay timer is set. Is done. After that, when the period (ε1) set by the special power function activation delay timer elapses and the timing of tc04 is reached, the second round following the first round (for example, the 13th round) is started, and the special power service 2 is not yet connected. The operation state is changed to the operation state. In this embodiment, the special electric combination 1 and the special electric combination 2 do not operate simultaneously. Since the second variable winning opening 235a is opened from the start of the round, the large winning opening 2 solenoid is also driven at this time, and the second variable winning opening 235a is opened. Further, the second count switch SW2 changes from the invalid state to the valid state at the timing when the special power combination 2 is activated. Thereby, when the game ball that has entered the second variable prize opening 235a passes through the second count switch SW2, this can be detected effectively, and it can be treated as having been awarded effectively to the second variable prize opening 235a. It becomes like this. In the present embodiment, since the first count switch SW1 is in an effective state until the period set by the special electric winning combination 1 winning detection timer elapses even after the second variable winning opening 235a is opened, When the two variable winning opening 235a is in an open state, the game ball that has entered the first variable winning opening 234a in the previous round may be detected as a winning through the first count switch SW1. Note that the second count switch SW2 may change from the invalid state to the valid state at the timing when the second variable prize opening 235a is first opened after the round starts. At the timing when the special electric combination 2 is in the operating state, the probability variation operating region solenoid SOL3 is driven and the V shutter 2352a is in the open state. Note that the V shutter 2352a is in an open state until, for example, a first V open time (for example, 1 second) elapses. Further, the probability variation operating region also changes from the invalid state to the valid state at the timing when the V shutter 2352a is opened. Thus, when the V passing switch (probability changing operation region) SW3 is passed, this can be detected effectively, and the probability changing operation region can be handled as having passed the game ball effectively. At this time, a first V passage effective time (for example, 1.5 seconds) is set so that a game ball that has passed while the V shutter 2352a is open can be reliably detected. That is, the first V passing effective time is set longer than the first V opening time. In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 47, the game ball passes through the probability variation operating region at a timing after the timing of tc04.

  Thereafter, when the period set by the special electric utility 1 winning detection timer elapses, the first count switch SW1 becomes invalid at the timing of tc05. In addition, when the first V opening time described above has elapsed and the timing of tc05 is reached, the driving of the probability changing operation region SOL3 is stopped and the V shutter 2352a is closed. For example, the V shutter 2352a is kept closed until a first V closing time (for example, 3 seconds) elapses. The timing at which the first count switch SW1 is disabled and the timing at which the driving of the probability change operation region SOL3 is stopped and the V shutter 2352a is closed may be the same timing or different timings. May be.

  Thereafter, when the first V passage effective time has elapsed, the probability variation operating region changes from the effective state to the invalid state. Thereby, it may be possible to suppress illegally passing the game ball through the probability variation operation region.

  Thereafter, when the first V closing time elapses and the timing becomes tc07, the probability variation operating region solenoid SOL3 is driven again, and the V shutter 2352a is changed from the closed state to the opened state. Note that the V shutter 2352a is kept open until, for example, a second V opening time (for example, 20 seconds) has elapsed at the maximum. Further, the probability variation operating region also changes from the invalid state to the valid state at the timing when the V shutter 2352a is opened. For example, the effective state of the probability change operation region is maintained until the second effective V passage effective time (for example, 20.5 seconds) elapses.

  After that, when the above-mentioned maximum winning number of game balls are won in the second variable prize opening 235 or the release timer set by the set special electric character operation data elapses, the timing of the big prize opening 2 solenoid is reached at the timing of tc08. The driving is stopped and the second variable winning opening 235a is closed. At this time, a special power combination operation interval timer is set, and a predetermined time (for example, 3 seconds) is set in the special power combination winning detection timer (special power combination 2 winning detection timer) related to the second variable winning opening 235a. In the present embodiment, in a state where the special power combination 2 winning detection timer is set, the second count switch SW2 is maintained in an effective state even after the special power combination 2 is inactivated. The special electric role 2 is in an operating state after the second variable winning opening 235a is closed until the round is ended, that is, until the period (δ2) set by the special electric utility operation interval timer elapses. It has become. In the present embodiment, even when the second V opening time has not elapsed at the timing of tc08, a third V opening time (for example, 2.5 seconds) is newly set. The open state of the V shutter 2352a is maintained until the V open time elapses. Even if the second V passage effective time has not elapsed at the timing of tc08, a third V passage effective time (for example, 3.5 seconds) is newly set, and this third V passage effective time is set. The probability variation operating region is maintained in an effective state until time elapses.

  When the period (δ2) set by the special electric function operation interval timer elapses and the timing of tc09 is reached, the second round is ended, and the special electric function 2 is changed from the operating state to the non-operating state, and the special electric function operation delay timer is set. Is done. Thereafter, when the period (ε2) set by the special power combination operation delay timer elapses and the timing of tc10 is reached, the third round is started, and the special power combination 1 is changed from the inoperative state to the activated state. Since the first variable winning opening 234a is opened from the start of the third round, the large winning opening 1 solenoid is also driven at this time, and the first variable winning opening 234a is opened. Further, the first count switch SW1 changes from the invalid state to the valid state at the timing when the special electric utility 1 is activated. In the present embodiment, since the second count switch SW2 is in an effective state until the period set by the special electric winning combination 2 winning detection timer has elapsed even after the first variable winning opening 234a is in the open state, When the 1 variable winning opening 234a is in an open state, the game ball that has entered the second variable winning opening 235a in the previous round may be detected as a winning through the second count switch SW2.

  Thereafter, when the third V opening time elapses and the timing of tc11 is reached, the driving of the probability change operation region solenoid SOL3 is stopped and the V shutter 2352a is changed from the opened state to the closed state. Thereafter, when the period set by the special power combination 2 winning detection timer elapses, the second count switch SW2 becomes invalid at the timing of tc12. After that, when the third V passage effective time elapses and the timing of tc13 is reached, the probability variation operating region changes from the valid state to the invalid state.

  In the present embodiment, the opening pattern of the V shutter 2352a during the big hit game may be changed according to the type of the big hit symbol. Furthermore, the opening pattern of the V shutter 2352a may be changed by a round.

  Further, in the present embodiment, the example in which the first variable winning opening 234a and the second variable winning opening 235a are kept open from the start to the end of the round has been described, but for example, a certain round (for example, 4 In the round), the open state is maintained for the first half of the maximum opening time (for example, 28 seconds) of the variable prize opening from the start of the round, and short opening is repeated (for example, 0. 0). (2 seconds opening and 1 second closing may be repeated).

  Next, a specific effect example in the pachinko machine according to the second embodiment will be described.

  FIG. 48 is a diagram illustrating an example of a specific effect in the pachinko machine according to the second embodiment. The following figure shows how the production progresses in alphabetical order in parentheses. In the present embodiment, rounds 1 to 14 are rounds where the first variable prize slot 234a is opened, and rounds 15 are rounds where the second variable prize slot 235a is opened, but the first variable prize slot 234a is round. The round to be opened and the round to be opened by the second variable winning opening 235a can be arbitrarily set. This production example shows a specific production example in the case of 15R special big hit.

  In the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 48 (a), “decoration 3-decoration 4-decoration 1”, which is a combination of losing decorative symbols, is fixedly displayed. Also, any one of the first special figure 1 hold display h11, the second special figure 1 hold display h12, the third special figure 1 hold display h13, and the fourth special figure 1 hold display h14 representing the hold of the special figure 1 is displayed. Are also displayed in the default display mode.

  48 also shows the first special figure display device 212, the special figure 1 hold lamp 218, the second special figure display device 214, and the special figure 2 hold lamp 220. In FIG. 48A, since there are four variable display hold numbers in FIG. 1, four lamps in the special figure 1 hold lamp 218 are lit.

  In addition, the first special figure display device 212 is stopped and displayed as “Special Figure I”, which is a lost symbol, and the second special figure display device 214 is stopped and displayed as “Special Figure f”, which is a lost symbol. Yes. In the upper right corner portion of the decorative symbol display device 208, the special symbol 1 and the fourth symbol t1 variably displayed corresponding to the display state of the first special symbol display device 212 and the display state of the second special symbol display device 214. The special figure 2 and the 4th symbol t2 variably displayed are displayed. In FIG. 48 (a), the special symbol 1 and the fourth symbol t1 correspond to the “special symbol I” stopped on the first special symbol display device 212, for example, a white circle that is a lost symbol is stopped. It is displayed in the displayed state. The special figure 2 fourth symbol t2 is in a state in which, for example, a white square mark that is a lost symbol is stopped and displayed in correspondence with the “special figure f” that is stopped and displayed on the second special figure display device 214. It is displayed. In FIG. 48 and subsequent figures, the special symbol 1 and the 4th symbol t1 and the special symbol 2 and the 4th symbol t2 are displayed on the decorative symbol display device 208 in a manner in which the symbols that are stopped and displayed can be recognized. However, in actuality, the symbols that are stopped and displayed are displayed in a manner that is difficult for the player to recognize. In addition, the special figure 1 4th symbol t1 and the special figure 2 4th symbol t2 may be displayed in a manner recognizable to the player.

  In FIG. 48 (b), the special figure 1 hold (first hold) is digested, and only the first special figure 1 hold display h11 to the third special figure 1 hold display h13 are displayed. Further, the first special symbol display device 212 shown in FIG. 48B has started the symbol variation display, and the ornamental symbol display device 208 has also started the variation display of the decoration symbol. It should be noted that various effects are possible in the decorative symbol variation display, and such an effect executed during the decorative symbol variation display is an example of the symbol variation rendering. The symbol variation effect can be executed not only by display on the decorative symbol display device 208 but also by voice output from the speaker 120, blinking of various lamps 418, and the like. In addition, the symbol variation effect may include a prefetch notice effect, a notice effect in the change, and the like. During the symbol variation display, the first special figure display device 212 repeats blinking in which all of the seven segments are turned on, turned off for a moment, and all of the seven segments are turned on again. In response to the symbol fluctuation display of the first special symbol display device 212, for example, the special symbol 1 and the fourth symbol t1 are also displayed in a manner that the colors shown in the circles change into a plurality of types.

  Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 48C, the decoration symbol display device 208 performs the first stop and the second stop, and “decoration 4” is stopped and displayed in the left symbol display area 208a and the right symbol display area 208c, respectively. And a reach state is formed. At this time, you may make it perform the effect which alert | reports that it became the reach state. The effect of notifying that the reach state has been reached is an example of a reach effect, and can also be an example of a symbol variation effect.

  Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 48 (d), the decorative symbol display device 208 performs a display that develops into super reach. In the super reach state, the decorative symbols displayed in the left symbol display area 208a, the middle symbol display area 208b, and the right symbol display area 208c are displayed small in the upper left corner. Such an effect in super reach is an example of a super reach effect, and can also be referred to as an example of a symbol variation effect.

  Thereafter, when the super reach is finished, as shown in FIG. 48 (e), the decoration symbol display device 208 performs the third stop, and “decoration 4” is stopped and displayed in the middle symbol display area 208b. The symbol begins to fluctuate. In other words, a temporary stop display is made with a combination of the decorative symbols of “decoration 4-decoration 4-decoration 4”.

  After that, as shown in FIG. 48 (f), the special special symbol winning symbol “15R” is stopped and displayed on the first special graphic display device 212, and the first graphic fourth graphic t1 includes the first The black circle symbol corresponding to “Special Figure A” that is stopped and displayed on the special figure display device 212 is stopped and displayed.

In addition, in the upper left corner of the decorative symbol display device 208, a combination of the decorative symbols that have been confirmed is displayed. In addition, the number of consecutive resorts is displayed in the lower left corner of the decorative symbol display device 208. Since the big hit game this time is the first big hit game that has shifted from the special figure low probability normal figure low probability state (normal game state), a display to that effect is displayed in the lower left corner of the decorative symbol display device 208. "First time" is displayed. Further, in the special figure 1 and the fourth symbol t1, a black circle symbol corresponding to “special figure A” stopped and displayed on the first special figure display device 212 is stopped and displayed. In FIG. 49A, seven game balls to the first variable winning opening 234a are effectively won, and one game ball is received by the first variable winning opening 234a. The state of not passing through is shown. In the lower right corner of the decorative symbol display device 208, the number of game balls won in the variable winning opening (winning number display) is shown. In FIG. 49A, seven games to the first variable winning opening 234a are shown. “7” is displayed corresponding to the winning of the ball.

  In FIG. 49B, the main control unit winning counter 1 becomes “10” and the number of winnings to the first variable winning opening 234a becomes the maximum winning number, so the first variable winning opening 234a is closed and the first variable winning opening 234a is closed. The variable winning opening 234a is maintained in the closed state. On the other hand, the decorative symbol display device 208 still displays 14R characters. That is, FIG. 49B shows that the above-described remaining sphere detection state is established. Since the value of the sub-control unit winning counter 1 is “10”, the winning number display displayed in the lower right corner of the decorative symbol display device 208 indicates “10”. In FIG. 49 (b), one game ball (remaining ball) that has been accepted by the first variable winning opening 234a but has not yet passed through the first count switch SW1 rolls in the first variable winning opening 234a. Is shown. This game ball is the eleventh game ball to be awarded to the first variable winning port 234a, and can be said to be a game ball that will be won beyond the maximum number of wins (over winning).

  Eventually, as shown in FIG. 49 (c), when the remaining sphere detection state ends and the interval between rounds is reached, the character display of 14R displayed on the decorative symbol display device 208 disappears. In this embodiment, the round number display is erased at the timing after the first variable winning opening 234a is closed. However, the round number display may be erased at the timing at which the first variable winning opening 234a is closed. Good. In FIG. 49 (c), the game ball rolling in the first variable winning opening 234a in FIG. 49 (b) has not yet passed through the first count switch SW1, and is still rolling. It is shown.

  Subsequently, in FIG. 49 (d), the 15th round is started. The second variable winning opening 235a shown in FIG. 49 (d) is opened, and the second variable winning opening 235a is in an open state. At this time, the V shutter 2352a is in an open state, and the V passage is easy. Then, in the decorative symbol display device 208, as shown in FIG. 49 (d), the 15R character display indicating the 15th round is performed, and “V Aim” for promoting the passage of V is called. Display is also performed. Also in FIG. 49 (d), it is shown that the game ball that is rolling in the first variable winning opening 234a has not yet passed through the first count switch SW1, and is still rolling. . As described above, also in this embodiment, even after the round (15th round) is started, the game balls that have entered the first variable winning opening 234a in the previous round (14th round) are still winning. It may become the state which is not. FIG. 49 (d) shows a state in which one game ball has entered the second variable winning opening 235a but has not yet passed through the second count switch SW2.

  Then, as shown in FIG. 49 (e), after the game ball that has entered the second variable winning opening 235a at the timing shown in FIG. 49 (d) passes through the second count switch SW2, the V passing switch SW3 is set. After passing, as shown in FIG. 49 (f), the decorative symbol display device 208 displays “V”, which is a notification that the probability variation has been confirmed. On the other hand, FIG. 49 (f) shows a state in which the game ball rolling in the first variable prize winning opening 234a in FIG. 49 (d) has passed through the first count switch SW1. At this time, since the special electric combination 1 winning detection timer is set and the passing of the game ball to the first count switch SW1 is effectively handled, it is treated as an effective winning to the first variable winning opening 234a, The main control unit winning counter 1 and the sub control unit winning counter 1 both count “11”, which is the eleventh winning. Then, an over winning is generated by the eleventh winning in the first variable winning opening 234a, and as shown in FIG. 49 (f), an over winning sound for notifying the fact is output from the speaker 120. That is, in the effect example shown in FIG. 49 (f), the effect (V passing effect) performed by passing the game ball to the probability changing operation area and the effect (over winning) performed by over winning the first variable winning port 234a. It is shown that the effect is performed in a superimposed manner. Depending on the timing of the game ball passing to the probability variation operation area and the timing of occurrence of the over winning, the over winning effect may be performed after the V passing effect is performed, or the over winning effect is performed. In some cases, the V passing effect may be performed later, and the V passing effect and the over winning effect may be started simultaneously. Further, when an over winning to the first variable winning opening 234a occurs during the execution of the V passing effect, the over winning effect may not be performed. Needless to say, an over winning effect may be executed when an over winning for the second variable winning opening 235a occurs.

  FIG. 51 (d) shows a state in which power interruption occurs for some reason after the ninth round is started. When the power interruption occurs, the power interruption process (step S408) of the main control unit main loop described above is executed, and the output port in the I / O 310 is cleared. Therefore, the big prize for driving the first variable prize opening 234 is obtained. The drive of the port 1 solenoid is stopped, and the first variable winning port 234 is changed from the open state to the closed state.

  FIG. 51E shows a state immediately after the power is restored and the return activation process in the main control unit power-on process is executed to return to the state before the power interruption. In the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 51 (e), a character display “recovering power” is displayed as a return display. Further, in the main control unit 300, since the control processing for the big hit game is returned to be executable, the driving of the big winning port 1 solenoid is resumed, and the first variable winning port 234 is changed from the closed state to the opened state. FIG. 51 (e) shows a state in which the ninth round is executed.

  Thereafter, a predetermined command (for example, an inter-round interval start command) is transmitted from the main control unit 300 to the sub-control unit 400, so that the decorative symbol display device 208 has a round function as shown in FIG. Interval production is performed. If a power interruption / recovery occurs during the execution of the big hit game, the data of the sub-control unit winning counter stored in the RAM 408 of the sub-control unit 400 is cleared. For this reason, as shown in FIG. 51 (f), the winning total display after the power restoration is also “0pt”. In the present embodiment, after the power supply is restored, the winning total display is not updated from “0 pt” until the winning game is completed, even if a game ball is won in the variable winning opening. Further, as shown in FIG. 51 (f), the number of rounds and the “decoration 7” are not displayed after the power is restored. In FIG. 51 (f), the eleventh game ball has entered the first variable winning opening 234 while the first variable winning opening 234 of the ninth round is being opened, but the first count is still in progress. A state is shown in which it does not pass through the switch SW1 and rolls in the first variable prize winning opening 234. That is, it can be said that this game ball is a game ball that will be won (over-win) exceeding the maximum number of wins.

  Eventually, as shown in FIG. 51 (g), when the game ball that has been rolling through the first variable prize opening 234 passes through the first count switch SW1 and an over-winning occurs, an over-winning sound is notified to that effect. Is output.

  In this embodiment, even if a power interruption / recovery occurs during the execution of the big hit game, the data of the sub-control unit winning counter stored in the RAM 408 of the sub-control unit 400 is not cleared. The display of the total number of winnings after power restoration may be the same display as before the power interruption (display of “1215pt”).

  In this embodiment, when power interruption / recovery occurs, the sub control unit (including the first sub control unit 400, the second sub control unit 500, the control circuit of the decorative symbol display device 208, etc.) returns. Even if the processing is not completed, the main control unit 300 is configured to be able to execute various controls as long as the return process of the main control unit 300 is completed. Therefore, even if a screen indicating that the power is being restored (for example, a display of “power is being restored”) is performed, the main control unit 300 may perform various controls (in this embodiment, if the restoration process is completed). , Jackpot control) can be executed. Here, when a winning to the big winning opening (first variable winning opening 234, second variable winning opening) is detected during the power restoration, the total number of winning prizes is displayed including the amount won during the power restoration. In addition, the same display as before the power interruption may be performed.

  In the above-described embodiment, the content of executing the over winning effect when the over winning is generated in the big hit game is described. However, the over winning effect may be executed even when the over winning is generated in the small hit game. Good.

  In the embodiment described above, a plurality of effect means (for example, two or more effect means of the decorative symbol display device 208, the speaker 120, the various lamps 418, 532, 542, the effect movable body 224, and the shielding device 246). An over-winning effect may be configured. In this case, if the winning detection timers (special feature 1 winning detection timer, special feature 2 winning detection timer) are set regardless of the timing, An over-winning effect may be performed by a plurality of effect means. In this case, an effect by a plurality of effect means (for example, “animation effect by decorative symbol display device 208 (for example, a determined pose animation of Tono-sama character)” and “sound effect such as“ Kean ”output from a speaker”) For example, the data is managed so that the display command corresponding to the over-winning effect and the audio output are one-to-one, or the display command and the audio output are managed separately to match only the output timing. It may be configured so that the timing is synchronized by configuring the timing, or the timing may not be synchronized.

  In addition, an over winning effect is performed by a plurality of effect means (for example, two or more effect means among the decorative symbol display device 208, the speaker 120, the various lamps 418, 532, and 542, the effect movable body 224, and the shielding device 246). In some cases, even if a winning detection timer (special electric role 1 winning detection timer, special electric role 2 winning detection timer) is set, some of the presentation means (for example, the decorative symbol display device 208 and the speaker 120 among the speakers 120) 120) only performs an over-winning effect (for example, output of a sound effect of “Kean”), and for other effect means (for example, the decorative symbol display device 208), an over-winning effect (for example, a determined pose of the character of Tonosama) The animation may not be performed.

  More specifically, when an over-winning has occurred at an interval between rounds, an over-winning effect is executed by a plurality of effect means, and after the start of the next round, the winning detection timer is not set. When an over-winning occurs, an over-winning effect may be executed by a part of the production means. When an over-winning occurs at an interval between rounds, a part of the plurality of effecting means When an over-winning effect is generated and an over-winning event occurs between the start of the next round and the setting of the winning detection timer, the over-winning effect may be executed by a plurality of effect means. Further, for example, when a winning detection timer is set, after the first sub-control unit 400 receives a winning end command or after the winning end display timer is set by the main control unit 300, an over winning is achieved. In the event that the occurrence occurs, an over-winning effect may be executed by some effect means. In addition, for example, when a winning detection timer is set, after the big hit game ends and the first sub control unit 400 receives a change waiting command, or the main control unit 300 times out the hit end display timer. In the event that an over-winning has occurred after this, an over-winning effect may be executed by some effect means. Also, for example, when a winning detection timer is set and an over winning occurs after the first sub-control unit 400 receives the first variation start command after the big hit game ends, An over-winning effect may be executed by some effect means. In addition, when an over win is generated in a manner other than the above, an over win effect may be executed by a plurality of effect means. In addition, you may perform operation | movement contrary to these.

  The plurality of effect means may be two or more kinds of effect means. For example, the effect means may be constituted by two or more of display means, sound output means, light emitting means, effect moving means, and the like. Good. Here, the light emitting means may be a single light emitter (LED or lamp), or may be composed of a plurality of light emitters (LED or lamp) mounted on one base, One or a plurality of light emitters may be mounted on a plurality of substrates and configured as one unit. The effect moving means may be provided on the door body, the game board 200, or the like. Here, the door body may or may not include an inner frame (for example, the main body 102).

  Further, the plurality of effect means may be constituted by two or more identical effect means, for example, may be constituted by three effect moving means provided on the game board 200.

  In the above description, the over winning effect is realized by the output of the over winning sound by the speaker 120 and the over winning effect display by the decorative symbol display device 208. It can also be realized by a member.

  As described above, in the present embodiment, regardless of whether the second variable winning opening 235 is in an open state or a closed state, it may be a period (first effective period) set by the special electric utility 1 winning detection timer. In this case, since the first over winning sound may be output, there are cases where the player can get a good feeling and improve the interest of the game.

<Other embodiment 2>
Next, another embodiment applicable to the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS.

  FIG. 52 is a diagram showing stepwise a variation of the big hit game with 15R special big hit shown in FIG. The following figure shows how the production progresses in alphabetical order in parentheses. In this example, the first to thirteenth rounds are rounds opened by the first variable prize opening 234a, and the 14th and 15th rounds are rounds opened by the second variable prize opening 235a. In this effect example, in the 14th round, the time during which the V shutter 2352a is in the open state is short (for example, 0.2 seconds), and the game ball enters the second variable winning opening 235a. Even so, it is difficult to pass V.

  FIG. 52 shows a decorative symbol display device 208 and a speaker 120. Corresponding to the first variable winning port 234a, the open / close state of the first variable winning port 234a, the number of balls entered to the first variable winning port 234a, the main control unit winning counter 1 and the sub control unit winning counter 1, Corresponding to the second variable winning port 235a, the open / closed state of the second variable winning port 235a, the number of balls entered into the second variable winning port 235, the main control unit winning counter 2 and the sub control unit winning counter 2 are shown. ing. In addition, the 1st variable prize opening 234a which is a 1st attacker, the 2nd variable prize opening 235a which is a 2nd attacker, the 1st special figure display apparatus 212, the 2nd special figure display apparatus 214, the general figure display apparatus 210, The special figure 1 holding lamp 218, the special figure 2 holding lamp 220, and the universal figure holding lamp 216 are not shown. In the embodiment shown in FIG. 49, the first variable winning opening 234a is opened and the second variable winning opening 235a is not opened in the fourteenth round, but in the embodiment shown in FIG. The second variable winning opening 235a is opened in the 14th round, and the first variable winning opening 234a is configured not to be opened.

  FIG. 52A shows that the 14th round is being executed in the jackpot game with the 15R special jackpot. As shown in FIG. 52 (a), the decorative symbol display device 208 displays that it is the 14th round of the jackpot game and prompts the player to pass V in the next round, that is, the 15th round. The message “Aim at V at next R” is displayed. In the upper left corner of the decorative symbol display device 208, a combination of the decorative symbols that have been confirmed is displayed. In addition, the number of consecutive resorts is displayed in the lower left corner of the decorative symbol display device 208. Since the big hit game this time is the first big hit game that has shifted from the special figure low probability normal figure low probability state (normal game state), a display to that effect is displayed in the lower left corner of the decorative symbol display device 208. "First time" is displayed. Further, in the special figure 1 and the fourth symbol t1, a black circle symbol corresponding to “special figure A” stopped and displayed on the first special figure display device 212 is stopped and displayed. In FIG. 52A, seven game balls to the second variable winning opening 235a are effectively won, and one game ball is received by the second variable winning opening 235a. The state of not passing through is shown. In the lower right corner of the decorative symbol display device 208, the number of game balls won in the variable prize opening (winning number display) is shown. In FIG. 52A, seven games to the second variable prize opening 235a are shown. “7” is displayed corresponding to the winning of the ball. Here, the number of consecutive resorts is counted as follows. That is, the period of the electric support state after the end of the big hit game of the first big hit, starting from the big hit (hereinafter referred to as “first big hit”) that occurred in the normal gaming state (special low probability normal figure low probability state) In the case of (probable change state or short-time state), it is counted when there is a big hit again. The count is ended when the transition to the electric support state is not performed after the end of the first big hit game or when the electric support state (ST or short-time state) is changed after the first big hit game ends. In addition, even if it is a case where it does not transfer to an electric support state after completion | finish of a big hit game, you may make it continue counting the number of consecutive games until the predetermined number of games (for example, 100 times after the big hit game is complete | finished). The number of consecutive resorts is counted only when a big hit (15R big hit, 5R big hit, RUB, 2R big hit, etc.) occurs, and is not counted even if a small hit occurs. In addition to small hits, for example, hidden hits, sudden odds (surprise), sudden shorts (surprises), and sudden normal big hits (rushes), such as big hits that cannot be expected to win, are counted as the number of consecutive hits. You may make it not to carry out, and you may make it count about some big hits of these big hits to the number of consecutive resorts. For example, in the normal gaming state, even when a sudden big hit or a latent big hit is hit, the counting may be started as the first big hit or the counting may not be started. Further, for example, it is also possible to count the sudden hit big hit and not count the latent big hit. Further, for example, the latent big hit may be counted and the sudden big hit may not be counted. Further, although the small hit is not counted as the number of consecutive resorts, the small hit may be counted. Further, the number of small hits may be counted separately from the number of large hits. Further, for example, when a big hit in a normal gaming state is reached, the big hit that occurred in the short time state that shifts after the big hit in a sudden may be counted as the first big hit.

  In FIG. 52 (b), the main control unit winning counter 2 becomes “10” and the number of winnings to the second variable winning opening 235a is the maximum winning number, so the second variable winning opening 235a is closed and the second The variable winning opening 235a is in the closed state. On the other hand, the decorative symbol display device 208 still displays 14R characters. That is, FIG. 52B shows that the above-described remaining sphere detection state is set. Since the value of the sub-control unit winning counter 2 is “10”, the winning number display displayed in the lower right corner of the decorative symbol display device 208 indicates “10”. In FIG. 52 (b), one game ball (remaining ball) that has been accepted by the second variable winning opening 235a but has not yet passed through the second count switch SW2 rolls in the second variable winning opening 235a. ing. This game ball is the eleventh game ball to be awarded to the second variable winning port 235a, and can be said to be a game ball that will win (over win) exceeding the maximum number of wins.

  Eventually, as shown in FIG. 52 (c1), when the remaining sphere detection state ends and the interval between rounds is reached, the character display of 14R displayed on the decorative symbol display device 208 disappears. In this embodiment, the round number display is erased at the timing after the second variable prize opening 235a is closed. However, the round number display may be erased at the timing at which the second variable prize opening 235a is closed. Good. In FIG. 52 (c1), the game ball rolling in the second variable winning opening 235a in FIG. 52 (b) has not yet passed through the second count switch SW2, and is still rolling. It is shown.

  FIG. 52 (c2) is still in the interval between rounds. As shown in FIG. 52 (c2), the game ball rolling in the second variable winning opening 235a passes through the second count switch SW2, and the value of the main control unit winning counter 2 becomes “11”. However, since the main control unit 300 does not transmit the big winning port winning command related to winning to the second variable winning port 235a of the game ball to the first sub controlling unit 400, the value of the sub control unit winning counter 2 is It remains “10”.

  FIG. 52 (c3) is still in the interval between rounds. In FIG. 52 (c3), the first sub-control unit 400 receives from the main control unit 300 a grand prize winning command relating to winning to the second variable prize winning port 235a, and thereby the value of the sub-control unit winning counter 2 is increased. It becomes “11” and it is determined that there has been an overwinning. Then, an over winning sound for notifying that an over winning has occurred is output from the speaker 120. That is, in the effect example shown in FIG. 52 (c3), a state in which an effect (over winning effect) by the over winning to the second variable winning opening 235a is performed during the interval between rounds is shown. That is, in the present embodiment, there is a period in which both the first variable prize winning opening 234a and the second variable prize winning opening 235a are closed in the big hit game, and the over winning effect can be executed during that period. .

  Subsequently, in FIG. 52 (d), the fifteenth round is started. When the 15th round is started, the second variable winning opening 235a is opened and the open state is maintained. At this time, the V shutter 2352a is in an open state, and the V passage is easy. Then, in the decorative symbol display device 208, as shown in FIG. 52 (d), a 15R character display indicating the fifteenth round is performed, and a “V Aim” that promotes the passage of V is called “V Aim”. Display is also performed. In the winning number display displayed in the lower right corner of the decorative symbol display device 208, “0” is indicated because there is no winning of a game ball in the second variable winning opening 235a. In this embodiment, “0” is always displayed first in the winning number display after the start of the round, but “0” may not be displayed and “1” may be displayed. May be. For example, immediately after the first variable winning opening 234a or the second variable winning opening 235a is opened, the first count switch SW1 or the second count switch SW2 is played at a timing before “0” is displayed on the winning display. When the ball passes and a main winning prize winning command is transmitted from the main control unit 300 to the first sub-control unit 400, “1” may be displayed in the winning number display. Alternatively, at the same timing when the sub-control unit winning counter is set to 0 in order to set the winning number display to “0”, the game ball passes through the first count switch SW1 or the second count switch SW2, and the main control unit 300 When the big prize opening winning command is transmitted from the first sub-control unit 400 to the first sub-control unit 400, “1” may be displayed in the winning number display. In addition, when a first winning is made to the first variable winning opening 234a or the second variable winning opening 235a in one round or one big hit, the display of the winning number display is started. Good. For example, the winning number display is not displayed until the first game ball is won after the first round is started after the first round is started and the first game ball is won. The display of the number display may be started. In the second and subsequent rounds, at the start of the round, the number of winnings in the previous round is displayed as it is in the winning number display, and “1” is displayed in the winning number display after the first winning is received. Also good. The display start timing of the winning number display indicating “0” may be simultaneous with the start of the round, or may be a timing after the start of the round. In addition, when the value of the sub-control unit winning counter is “0”, the value of the sub-control unit winning counter is not displayed without displaying the number-of-wins display (or only the frame indicating the area of the winning number display is displayed) When the number becomes “1”, the winning number display may be displayed. In this case, the timing at which the winning number display is erased may be when the variable winning opening is closed or when the next round is started. These can also be applied to the award winning ball number display, the total award winning ball number display, the actual award winning ball number display, the actual total award winning ball number display, etc., which will be described later. In FIG. 52 (d), the game ball has not yet entered the second variable winning opening 235a.

  Then, as shown in FIG. 52 (e), when the game ball enters the second variable prize opening 235a, passes through the second count switch SW2, and passes through the V pass switch SW3, the game ball enters FIG. 52 (f). As shown in the figure, the decorative symbol display device 208 displays “V”, which is a notification that the probability variation has been confirmed, and also notifies the speaker 120 by voice output.

  53 (a) to 53 (c) are diagrams showing step by step another operation example in the big hit game with the 15R special big hit shown in FIG. The following figure shows how the production progresses in alphabetical order in parentheses.

  FIG. 53 (a) is the same as FIG. 52 (c1), and a detailed description thereof will be omitted.

  FIG. 53 (b) shows that the ball entered the second variable winning opening 235a in the 14th round, the 15th round is started without passing through the second count switch SW2, and the main control unit winning counter 2 And the value of the sub-control unit winning counter 2 are cleared to “0”. That is, the game ball entered in the 14th round passes through the second count switch SW2 after the 15th round starts, and as described above, the V shutter 2352a is also in the open state and the V pass is easy. Therefore, thereafter, as shown in FIG. 53 (c), the game ball passes through the V passing switch SW3. As described above, in the operation example shown in FIGS. 53A to 53C, the maximum number of winnings to the second variable winning opening 235a becomes the maximum winning number until the second variable winning opening 235a is closed. If a game ball enters the second variable winning port 235a exceeding the number of winnings and the next round is started before the game ball passes the second count switch SW2, the next round Because it is said that it was won in, it will not be over won.

  FIG. 53D to FIG. 53E are diagrams showing modified examples of the successful performance.

  In FIG. 53 (d), as shown in FIG. 48 (i), in the decorative symbol display device 208, the above-described promotion effect is performed in the fourth round. ) Is started. Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 53 (e), an acquisition display indicating that the chance of passing V is acquired is displayed on the upper left of the decorative symbol display device 208. That is, in the fifteenth round, the second variable winning opening 235a is opened long and a notice is given that the V passage is easy. The acquisition display shown in FIG. 53 (e) is, for example, a mode in which a letter “V chance GET” is added in a frame simulating the shape of a six-pointed star. Note that the display start timing of the acquisition display may be the same as the start of the success effect, may be the timing after the start of the success effect, or at a timing before the start of the success effect. There may be. As shown in FIG. 53 (e), the winning number display in the lower right corner of the decorative symbol display device 208 indicates that three game balls have won the first variable winning opening 234a.

  FIG. 53 (f) to FIG. 53 (j) are diagrams showing an example of specific effects in the jackpot game. In this production example, rounds 1 to 14 are rounds where the first variable prize opening 234a is opened, and rounds 15 are rounds where the second variable prize slot 235a is opened.

  FIG. 53 (f) shows the contents of effects in the 14th round. As shown in FIG. 53 (f), the decorative symbol display device 208 displays that it is the 14th round of the jackpot game, and prompts the player to pass V in the next round, that is, the 15th round. “Aim for V at next R” is displayed, but this display is performed by a wipe display at the lower right corner of the decorative symbol display device 208. In addition, the decorative symbol display device 208 displays the total number of winning balls, and the number of winning balls from the first big hit (the big hit in the normal gaming state that is neither the probability change state nor the short-time state) is “total xxxGet "Is displayed in the display mode, and below that, the number of remaining winning balls is displayed, and the number of winning balls that can be obtained in the running big hit game is displayed in the display mode of" remaining xxx " ing. In FIG. 53 (f), the jackpot game that has been executed is the first jackpot game that has been transferred, and in the jackpot game, there are 137 game balls in the first variable winning slot 234a and the second variable winning slot 235a. Is displayed, indicating that 2055 prize balls have been paid out. At the timing shown in FIG. 53 (f), seven game balls have been won in the first variable winning opening 234a in the fourteenth round. Therefore, in the 14th round, the remaining 3 game balls can be won at least, and in the 15th round, at least 10 game balls can be won, so the total number of winning balls displayed is 137 × 15 = "Total 2055 Get" indicating 2055, and the number of remaining prize balls is (3 + 15) x 15 = "195 remaining" indicating 195. Note that the total number of winning prize balls is displayed by adding only the number of winning balls to be paid out by winning at the first variable winning opening 234a and the second variable winning opening 235a. 1 special figure starting port 230, 2nd special figure starting port 232, general winning port 226), the number of winning balls to be paid out by winning is not added, but the number of winning balls to be paid out by winning to these winning ports May be added and displayed.

  FIG. 53 (g) shows a state during an inter-round interval that shifts after the 14th round is completed. In the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 53 (g), the total number of winning balls displayed is “total 2100 Get”, indicating that 140 game balls have been won, and the number of remaining winning balls The display shows “150 remaining”, indicating that at least 10 game balls can be won in the 15th round (final round). Further, a wipe display of “Aim at V at next R” prompting V passing in the 15th round is continued. In FIG. 53 (g), a game ball that has entered the first variable winning opening 234a in the 14th round but has not yet passed through the first count switch SW1 is rolling in the first variable winning opening 234a. is there. In other words, the eleventh winning game ball to the first variable winning opening 234a is rolling in the first variable winning opening 234a.

  FIG. 53 (h) shows a state in which the 15th round is started. When the 15th round is started, the second variable winning opening 235a is opened and the open state is maintained. At this time, the V shutter 2352a is in an open state, and the V passage is easy. Then, in the decorative symbol display device 208, as shown in FIG. 53 (h), the 15R character display indicating the 15th round is performed, and at the same time, the “V Aim” is intended to promote the passage of V. The display is performed by wipe display. In addition, the total number of winning balls and the number of remaining winning balls are also displayed. Note that a game ball that has entered the first variable winning opening 234a in the 14th round but has not yet passed through the first count switch SW1 has not yet passed through the first count switch SW1, and the first variable winning opening 234a. It is rolling inside.

  Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 53 (i), when the game ball rolling in the first variable winning opening 234a passes the first count switch SW1, an over winning sound is output from the speaker 120. And, if the amount of over winning is included, 141 winnings are generated in this jackpot game, so the total number of winning balls is displayed as “total 2115 Get”. On the other hand, since the winning amount for the over winning is not included in the winning count in the 15th round, there is no change in that at least 10 gaming balls can be won in the 15th round. The display remains “150 remaining”.

  FIG. 53 (j) shows a state in which the first jackpot game is finished and the game is shifted to the probability change state, and in the probability change state, the second consecutive jackpot game is started and the first round is being executed. As shown in FIG. 53 (j), the decorative symbol display device displays that it is the first round of the big hit game. Further, in the decorative symbol display device 208, the total winning prize ball number display is performed, but the total winning prize ball number display displayed here is that the big hit game is the second consecutive jackpot game. Since it is displayed including the number of prize balls actually acquired in the first big hit game, it is “total 2265 Get”. As described above, the total number of winning balls displayed includes the amount of over winning. On the other hand, since this big hit game is a big hit game that was started as a 15R special big hit, the remaining winning ball number display is “maximum winning number (10) × number of rounds (15R) × number of winning balls (15). ) = 2250 ”is“ remaining 2250 ”.

  In this production example, the total number of winning balls is displayed including the over winning prizes, but may be displayed without including the over winning prizes. Further, in this effect example, the number of consecutive resorts is not displayed because the number of consecutive resorts can be estimated by looking at the total winning prize ball number display, but the number of consecutive resorts may be displayed.

  54 (a) to 54 (c) are diagrams showing, in a stepwise manner, another operation example in the big hit game with the 15R special big hit shown in FIG. The following figure shows how the production progresses in alphabetical order in parentheses. In this production example, the V shutter 2352a is in the open state in the 14th round for a long time (for example, 24 seconds), and the game ball that has entered the second variable winning opening 235a can be easily V It is configured to pass.

  In FIG. 54 (a), the contents of effects in the 13th round are shown. As shown in FIG. 54 (a), the decorative symbol display device 208 displays that it is the 13th round of the jackpot game, and urges to pass V in the next round, that is, the 14th round. The message “Aim at V at next R” is displayed. In the upper left corner of the decorative symbol display device 208, a combination of the decorative symbols that have been confirmed is displayed. In addition, the number of consecutive resorts is displayed in the lower left corner of the decorative symbol display device 208. Since the big hit game this time is the first big hit game that has shifted from the special figure low probability normal figure low probability state (normal game state), a display to that effect is displayed in the lower left corner of the decorative symbol display device 208. "First time" is displayed. Further, in the special figure 1 and the fourth symbol t1, a black circle symbol corresponding to “special figure A” stopped and displayed on the first special figure display device 212 is stopped and displayed. FIG. 54 (a) shows a state in which ten (maximum number of winning) game balls are effectively won in the first variable winning opening 235a. In the lower right corner of the decorative symbol display device 208, the number of game balls won in the variable winning opening (winning number display) is shown. In FIG. “10” is displayed corresponding to the winning of the game ball.

  Subsequently, in FIG. 54 (b), the effect contents in the 14th round are shown. In the 14th round, the second variable winning opening 235a is being maintained in the open state. At this time, the V shutter 2352a is in an open state, and the V passage is easy. Then, in the decorative symbol display device 208, as shown in FIG. 54 (b), the 14R character display indicating the 14th round is performed, and “V Aim” for promoting the passage of V is called. Display is also performed. In the winning number display displayed in the lower right corner of the decorative symbol display device 208, “1” is indicated because one game ball has been won in the second variable winning slot 235a.

  However, for some reason, when the 14th round ends without the game ball passing through the V pass switch SW3 and the 15th round starts, the V pass is easy even in the 15th round. As shown in (c), the display “V Aim” continues even after the 15th round. When the game ball passes through the V passing switch SW3 in the 14th round, “V” is displayed as a notification that the probability change has been confirmed, and “V” is continuously displayed in the 15th round. The jackpot round display for the 15th round may be displayed.

  FIG. 54D to FIG. 54G are diagrams showing other effects examples of V notification. In this effect example, a light guide plate 208e is arranged on the front side of the decorative symbol display device 208. The light guide plate 208e is an example of a notification unit that notifies the passage of V. A light source (not shown) (for example, LED) is provided on the side surface of the light guide plate 208e. A pattern emerges on the light guide plate 208e when the light source emits light. That is, the light from the light source enters the thickness portion of the light guide plate 208e, and the light is reflected forward by the portion where the pattern is attached, so that the light is visually recognized as being emitted. In this effect example, when the light source emits light, the face T of the main character's character appears on the light guide plate 208e. Instead of the light guide plate 208e, a transparent liquid crystal display device may be arranged on the front side of the decorative symbol display device 208.

  FIG. 54 (d) shows a state in which the 15th round is started. When the 15th round is started, the second variable winning opening 235a is opened and the open state is maintained. At this time, the V shutter 2352a is in an open state, and the V passage is easy. Then, in the decorative symbol display device 208, as shown in FIG. 54 (d), a 15R character display indicating the 15th round is performed, and “V Aim” for promoting the passage of V is called. The display is done. In the winning number display displayed in the lower right corner of the decorative symbol display device 208, “0” is indicated because there is no winning of a game ball in the second variable winning opening 235a.

  Thereafter, when the game ball enters the second variable winning opening 235a and passes through the V passing switch SW3, as shown in FIG. 54 (e), the light source provided on the side surface of the light guide plate 208e emits light, and the light guide plate At 208e, the face T of the Tono-sama character emerges, and a sound to that effect is also output from the speaker 120 to notify that the probability variation has been confirmed (V notification). At this time, the decorative symbol display device 208 is not displayed and the display screen is darkened. This makes it easier to visually recognize the face T of the Tono-sama character that appears on the light guide plate 208e. Therefore, the winning number display displayed on the decorative symbol display device 208 is also hidden. In this example, when the V notification and the above-described over winning effect occur simultaneously, the V notification is executed with priority, and the over winning effect is not performed while the V notification is being executed. Also good. Further, while the V notification is being executed, the over winning effect may be executed so as not to stand out. For example, the over winning sound output from the speaker 120 may be output smaller than normal. In addition, when the V notification and the over winning effect occur simultaneously, the over winning effect may not be performed while the V notification is being performed, and the over winning effect may be performed halfway after the V notification is finished. The over winning effect may be performed from the beginning after the V notification is finished. Further, when the V notification and the over winning effect occur simultaneously, both the V notification and the over winning effect may be executed at the same time. Further, when the V notification and the above-described over winning effect occur simultaneously, the over winning effect may be preferentially executed, and the V notification may not be performed while the over winning effect is being executed. Further, while the over winning effect is being executed, the V notification may be executed inconspicuously. For example, the V notification sound output from the speaker 120 may be output smaller than normal. Further, when the V notification and the over winning effect are generated at the same time, the V notification may not be performed while the over winning effect is being executed, and the V notification may be performed halfway after the over winning effect is completed. The V notification may be performed from the beginning after the over winning effect is finished.

  After that, as shown in FIG. 54 (f), the display on the decorative symbol display device 208 is resumed in a state where the light T is continuously emitted and the face T of the Tono-sama character is raised, and a predetermined time (for example, 3 seconds), as shown in FIG. 54 (g), the light emission from the light source provided on the side surface of the light guide plate 208e is finished, and the face T of the ton-like character on the light guide plate 208e is difficult to visually recognize. Is done. It should be noted that when the display on the decorative symbol display device 208 is resumed, the display of “V”, which is a notification that the probability variation has been confirmed, is not performed, but the display of “V” may be performed. .

  Further, for example, the display of the face T of the Tono-sama character by the light guide plate 208e or the display of the face T of the Tono-sama character by the light guide plate 208e may be changed by the action by the shielding device 246 or the action by the effect movable body 224. Notification may be performed. At this time, the shielding device 246 and the effect movable body 224 may be moved to a position overlapping the decorative symbol display device 208, or may be operated to vibrate on the spot.

  FIG. 55 is a diagram showing another specific effect example in the pachinko machine according to the second embodiment. The following figure shows how the production progresses in alphabetical order in parentheses. In the above-described effect example, description has been given of the case where the game goes to the probabilistic state after the end of the big hit game on condition that the game ball passes to the V pass switch SW3. In addition, it is configured to shift to a probable change state after the end of the big hit game.

  FIG. 55 (a) shows a state in which a big hit game with 15R special big hit that will shift to a probable change state after the big hit game ends and a big hit game start effect is executed. As shown in FIG. 55 (a), in the big hit game start effect, the decorative symbol display device 208 displays a character image of “probable big hit” together with a background image celebrating the big hit (not shown here). Audio output indicating that it is a big hit is performed. It should be noted that the contents of the jackpot start effect such as the jackpot game start effect display performed on the decorative symbol display device 208 may differ depending on the number of consecutive villas, or the contents of the jackpot game start effect regardless of the number of consecutive villas May be the same. In addition, the content of the big hit game start effect may vary depending on the type of jackpot (probability, short time, RUB, number of rounds to be executed, number of actual rounds, presence / absence of a power support state after the big hit game ends, etc.) .

  When the big hit game start effect is finished and the first round is started, as shown in FIG. 55 (b), the first variable winning opening 234a is opened and the open state is maintained. Further, in the decorative symbol display device 208, 1R character display is performed in the upper left corner as a round number display, and it is notified that it is the first round. In addition, a display for urging the player to make a right strike is made at the upper center of the center to notify the player that the player is making a right strike. The display for prompting the right hit may be displayed simultaneously with the start of the big hit game. In addition, “decoration 7” is displayed in the upper right corner of the decorative symbol display device 208 and is continuously displayed until the big hit game end effect is started. In addition, below the display of “decoration 7”, the number of consecutive resorts is displayed. In the effect example shown in FIG. 55 (b), since it is the first big hit game, “first time” is displayed as the number of consecutive games. Further, below the display of the number of consecutive games, there is an acquired prize ball number display indicating the number of prize balls won in the jackpot. At the timing shown in FIG. 55 (b), “0” is displayed as the display of the number of winning prize balls since there is no game ball winning in the variable winning opening yet. In addition, instead of the display of the number of winning prize balls, the above-described total winning ball number display may be performed. The winning prize ball number display is displayed by adding only the number of prize balls to be paid out by winning in the first variable winning slot 234a and the second variable winning slot 235a. The number of winning balls to be paid out for winning at the special drawing starting port 230, the second special drawing starting port 232, and the general winning opening 226) is not added, but the number of winning balls to be paid out by winning at these winning ports is not added. May be added and displayed.

  FIG. 55 (c) shows a state in which the first round has been completed and the interval has shifted to the interval between rounds. In the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 55 (c), since the round number display is erased and 10 game balls are won in the first round, the winning prize is 10 winning balls × 15 winning balls. The number of balls is 150, and “00150” is displayed as the number of winning prize balls displayed. At this time, in the first variable winning opening 234a, a game ball that has entered the first variable winning opening 234a in the first round but has not yet passed through the first count switch SW1 rolls in the first variable winning opening 234a. It is moving.

  Thereafter, when the second round is started, as shown in FIG. 55 (d), the second variable winning opening 235a is opened, and the decorative symbol display device 208 performs 2R character display as the round number display. At this time, the game ball that is rolling in the first variable winning opening 234a passes through the first count switch SW1, and the value of the main control unit winning counter 1 becomes “11”. However, since the main winning prize winning command relating to winning the game ball to the first variable winning prize opening 234a is not transmitted from the main control unit 300 to the first sub controlling part 400, the value of the sub control part winning counter 1 is It remains “10”.

  After that, the first sub-control unit 400 receives a big prize port winning command related to winning from the main control unit 300 to the first variable winning port 234a, whereby the value of the sub-control unit winning counter 1 becomes "11" It is determined that there was an over prize. Then, as shown in FIG. 55 (e), an over winning sound is output from the speaker 120. At this time, in the winning prize ball number display, the amount of over winning is added and “00165” is displayed.

  FIG. 55 (f) shows that the game in the second round is continuously executed. In FIG. 55 (f), the number of game balls that have entered the variable winning opening and passed through the count switch is 13, but one of them is from the main control unit 300 to the first sub control unit 400. Since the grand prize winning command has not been transmitted, the value of the sub-control unit winning counter 2 is “1”. Therefore, in the display of the number of winning prize balls, “00180” corresponding to the winning of 12 game balls is displayed.

  Thereafter, the 15th round in which the big hit game progresses and the second variable winning opening 235a is opened is executed, and 10 game balls are won in the second variable winning opening 235a (the value of the main control unit winning counter 2 is set). When it becomes “10”), as shown in FIG. 55 (g), the second variable winning opening 235a is closed, and the second variable winning opening 235a is maintained in the closed state. In this effect example, the number of game balls won in the variable prize opening during the period from the start of the big hit game to the timing shown in FIG. 55 (g) is 151 including one over win. Therefore, the number of winning balls won in this jackpot game is “151 winning prizes for variable winning opening × 15 winning balls = 2265”, and the decorative symbol display device 208 displays “02265” as the winning winning ball number display. Is displayed. In FIG. 55 (g), one game ball (remaining ball) that has been accepted by the second variable winning opening 235a but has not yet passed through the second count switch SW2 is turned in the second variable winning opening 235a. It is moving. That is, an over win is generated.

  Thereafter, when the 15th round is completed, as shown in FIG. 55 (h), a big hit game end effect (a big hit end effect) is performed. That is, in the main control unit 300, the hit end display timer is in operation. In this production example, since the big hit with the probability variation symbol, after the big hit game is finished, the state shifts to the probability variation state. Therefore, in the big hit end effect, “probability RUSH rush entry” indicating that the state is shifted to the probability change state is displayed. The decorative symbol display device 208 displays the number of winning prize balls in the jackpot game at the jackpot end effect. At this time, the game ball rolling in the second variable winning opening 235a passes through the second count switch SW2, an over winning is generated, and an over winning sound is output from the speaker 120. Thus, in this embodiment, the over winning effect can be executed during the execution of the big hit end effect. In the example of production shown in FIG. 55 (h), the number of winning prize balls is displayed without including the over-winning that occurred during execution of the big hit end effect. The number display may be updated to include the over-winning. That is, when the winning winning ball number display in the jackpot end effect is “02265 Get” and an over winning is generated, the number of winning balls for one winning is added and displayed as “02280 Get”. Also good. For example, when the set time of the winning detection timer is longer than the winning end display timer elapses (for example, 30 seconds), the count switch even after the big hit game is ended and the subsequent symbol variation display is started. May continue to be valid. In this case, after the symbol variation display is started, a game ball that has entered the variable winning opening may pass through the count switch and an over-winning may occur. In this case, the over winning sound may be output during the symbol variation display, or the over winning sound may not be output.

  FIG. 56 (a) is a diagram showing another example of the big hit game start effect shown in FIG. 55 (a). FIG. 56 (a) shows a state in which a big hit game start effect in which the number of consecutive games is a specific number (for example, 10 times) is being executed. That is, as shown in FIG. 56 (a), when the 10th consecutive bonanza game is started, the decorative symbol display device 208 displays a background image celebrating the 10th consecutive villain's special bonanza (omitted here). At the same time, the text “probability big hit” is displayed. Further, below the character display of “probable big hit”, there is also a character display of “Holiday 10 consecutive villas” congratulating the big hit of the 10th consecutive home. Then, instead of the sound output indicating that the probable big hit is made from the speaker 120, the sound output “celebration 10th time” that celebrates the big hit of the tenth resort is performed. Here, a voice output indicating that it is a probable big hit may be further performed. Note that in the main control unit 300, the winning start display timer is operating, and in this state, no over-winning is actually generated, and therefore no over-winning effect is performed.

  56 (b) to 56 (f) are diagrams showing examples of specific effects in the big hit game.

  FIG. 56 (b) shows a state in which the first round is started after the transition to the first jackpot game. When the big hit game start effect is finished and the first round is started, the first variable winning opening 234a is opened and the open state is maintained. Further, in the decorative symbol display device 208, 1R character display is performed in the upper left corner as a round number display, and it is notified that it is the first round. In addition, a display for urging the player to make a right strike is made at the upper center of the center to notify the player that the player is making a right strike. In addition, “decoration 7” is displayed in the upper right corner of the decorative symbol display device 208 and is continuously displayed until the big hit game end effect is started. In addition, below the display of “decoration 7”, the number of consecutive resorts is displayed. In the production example shown in FIG. 56B, since it is the first big hit game, “first time” is displayed as the display of the number of consecutive resorts. In addition, the total number of winning prize balls described above is displayed below the display of the number of consecutive resorts. At the timing shown in FIG. 56 (b), since there is no game ball winning in the variable winning opening, “00000” is displayed as the total number of winning balls. Also, in the effect example shown in FIG. 56 (b), an acquired prize ball number indicating the number of prize balls won in the big hit game is displayed below the center of the decorative symbol display device 208. Thus, in this example of production, the total winning prize ball number display and the winning prize ball number display are performed simultaneously.

  FIG. 56 (c) shows that in the first round, there are 10 game balls won in the first variable winning opening 234a, and the first variable winning opening 234a is closed, and the closed state is maintained. Yes. At this time, in the decorative symbol display device 208, display corresponding to ten winnings in the variable winning opening is performed in each of the total winning ball number display and the acquired winning ball number display.

  FIG. 56 (d) shows a state in which the first round is started after the transition to the big hit game of the tenth consecutive resort. When the big hit game start effect is finished and the first round is started, the decorative symbol display device 208 displays “10th time” indicating 10 consecutive resorts as the number of consecutive resorts. Further, the total number of winning balls displayed indicates the number of winning balls “20250” acquired by winning the variable winning opening between the first jackpot game and the previous (9th) jackpot game. In this production example, no over-winning has occurred between the first jackpot game and the previous jackpot game, so the total number of winning balls is “the number of wins to the variable winning opening in one round (10 Number) × number of winning balls (15) × number of rounds executed in one big hit (15R) × number of big hit games executed from the first time to the previous time (9 times) = 20250 ”.

  Thereafter, when ten game balls win the first variable winning slot 234a (the value of the main control section winning counter 1 becomes “10”), as shown in FIG. 56 (e), the first variable winning slot 234a is closed, and the first variable prize winning opening 234a is in the closed state. In this production example, the number of game balls won in the variable winning opening during the period from the start of the 10th consecutive big hit game to the timing shown in FIG. 56 (e) is ten. Therefore, at the timing shown in FIG. 56 (e), the number of prize balls acquired after the big hit of the tenth villa is started is “the number of winning prizes to the variable prize opening (10) × the number of prize balls (15)”. = 150 ”, and the decorative symbol display device 208 displays“ 150 Get ”as the number of winning prize balls. In addition, in the total number of winning prizes displayed, the number of winning balls acquired since the start of this big hit is added to the total number of winning prizes at the time when the big hit of the tenth consecutive home starts, and “20400” is obtained. It is displayed.

  FIG. 56 (f) shows a state in which the second round is started. When the second round is started, the second variable winning opening 235a is opened, and the decorative symbol display device 208 performs 2R character display as the round number display. At this time, since the eleventh game ball has entered the first variable winning opening 234a in the first round, an over win occurs in the second round, and from the speaker 120 at the timing shown in FIG. 56 (f). Over winning sound is output. At this time, in the total number of winning prizes displayed, the over winning portion (15 winning balls) is added and “20415” is displayed. However, in the acquired winning ball number display, the over winning amount is not added, It remains “150 Get”. In this way, in this production example, the total winning award ball number display in the consecutive game is displayed taking into account the over winning portion, but the acquired winning ball number display is displayed without adding the over winning portion. It should be noted that, in the total prize winning ball number display in the consecutive game, it may be displayed without taking the over winning portion into consideration, and in the acquired winning ball display, the over winning portion may be taken into consideration.

  FIG. 56 (g) is a diagram illustrating an example of a specific effect of the big hit game end effect. In the jackpot game end effect shown in FIG. 56 (g), the decorative symbol display device 208 has 110 ST (Special Time) counts in the probability variation state after the jackpot game ends, instead of displaying the number of winning prize balls. “110G” indicating that there is a message is displayed. Here, the number of STs is the number of symbol variation display controlled to the probability variation state. Instead of the ST count, the number of symbol fluctuation display controlled to the electric support state or the short time state may be displayed. Also in this production example, over winning is generated during the execution of the big hit game ending production, and the over winning sound is output from the speaker 120.

  FIG. 56 (h) to FIG. 56 (i) are diagrams showing other examples of the big hit game end effect shown in FIG. 55 (h). In FIG. 56 (h), an effect similar to that in FIG. 56 (g) is performed. However, in the end effect of the big hit game having the number of consecutive resorts more than a specific number of consecutive resorts (for example, 10 consecutive resorts), FIG. After a predetermined time (for example, 3 seconds) has elapsed since the effect display shown in 56 (h) is started, as shown in FIG. 56 (i), a special effect that celebrates Dalian Zhuang is executed. That is, in the decorative symbol display device 208, the character of the main character is displayed, and an effect that is executed only in a big hit game of 10 consecutive resorts or more, “I will continue” from the speaker 120. The execution time of the jackpot game end effect shown in FIGS. 56 (h) to (i) is the same as the execution time of the jackpot game end effect shown in FIG. 56 (g), but may be different. Good. In addition, when the effect shown in FIG. 56 (i) is being executed, if an over winning is generated, the over winning effect may be executed or may not be executed. Also, the performance shown in FIG. 56 (i) may be always executed in a jackpot game of 10 consecutive villas or more, and it has a predetermined probability (for example, 25 %)) May be executed when a lottery result is won.

  FIG. 56 (j) to FIG. 56 (l) are diagrams showing modifications of the over winning effect. FIG. 56 (j) shows a state in which ten game balls have been won in the first variable winning opening 234a in the first round, and the first variable winning opening 234a has been closed, and the closed state is being maintained. Yes. At this time, the display of the total number of winning balls is displayed on the decorative symbol display device 208, and since it is the first big hit game, “00150” is displayed in response to 10 winnings in the variable winning opening. Yes. In FIG. 56 (j), the decoration lamp 532a (see FIG. 3 and FIG. 60), which is one of the game board lamps 532, arranged at the lower right of the decoration symbol display device 208 is in the round in the big hit game. The light emission mode is shown.

  Then, as shown in FIG. 56 (k), when an over-winning occurs in the interval between rounds that has shifted to after the end of the first round, an over-winning sound is output from the speaker 120, and the decorative symbol display device 208 displays the lower left An over-winning display indicating that an over-winning has occurred in the corner (character display of “over-winning” together with Tono-sama's character and the Senryo box) is performed, and the decorative lamp 532a lights the lamp in a light emitting manner to notify the over-winning. Done.

  Further, when an over winning is generated in the big hit game end effect, as shown in FIG. 56 (l), only the lamp is turned on in a light emitting mode for notifying the over winning by the decorative lamp 532a. The over-winning sound output and the over-winning display on the decorative symbol display device 208 may not be performed.

  In this way, the over winning effect may be executed by a plurality of notification means (decorative symbol display device 208, decorative lamp 532a, speaker 120). In this case, for example, an operation based on an over-winning operation pattern by the shielding device 246 or the effect movable body 224 may be performed. Note that the over-winning notification is not limited to the sound output by the speaker 120, but other notification means (for example, the decorative symbol display device 208, various lamps, the shielding device 246, or the movable movable body) instead of the sound output means such as the speaker 120. 224).

  Thereafter, when the second round is started, as shown in FIG. 58D, the second variable winning opening 235a is opened, and the decorative symbol display device 208 performs 2R character display as the round number display. At this time, the game ball that is rolling in the first variable winning opening 234a passes through the first count switch SW1, and the value of the main control unit winning counter 1 becomes “11”. However, since the main winning prize winning command relating to winning the game ball to the first variable winning prize opening 234a is not transmitted from the main control unit 300 to the first sub controlling part 400, the value of the sub control part winning counter 1 is It remains “10”.

  After that, the first sub-control unit 400 receives a big prize port winning command related to winning from the main control unit 300 to the first variable winning port 234a, whereby the value of the sub-control unit winning counter 1 becomes "11" It is determined that there was an over prize. Then, as shown in FIG. 58 (e), an over winning sound is output from the speaker 120. In other words, it can be said that the over winning sound is output to the attacker (first variable winning port 234a) having a large number of winning balls that can be acquired in the round (2R) having a small number of winning balls. Note that an over winning sound is also output to an attacker (second variable winning opening 235a) with a small number of winning balls that can be acquired in a round with a large number of winning balls (the first variable winning opening 234a is opened). It can be carried out. In addition, in the display of the number of winning prize balls in the decorative symbol display device 208, the amount of over winning to the first variable winning opening 234a is added and “00165” is displayed.

  FIG. 58 (f) shows that the game in the second round is continuously executed. In FIG. 58 (f), the second variable winning opening 235a2 game balls have won, but for one of them, the big winning opening winning command is transmitted from the main control unit 300 to the first sub control unit 400. Therefore, the value of the sub-control unit winning counter 2 is “1”. Since the number of prize balls to be paid out by winning at the second variable prize opening 235a is 14, the number of prize balls paid out for winning at the 11 first variable prize openings 234a in the display of the number of winning prizes. “00179” is displayed which indicates the sum (179) of the number and the number of winning balls paid out for winning in one second variable winning opening 235a.

  FIG. 59 is a diagram illustrating another example of an over-winning effect applicable to the present embodiment. In the above-described production example, description has been given of the case where the game goes to the probabilistic state after the big hit game is completed on condition that the game ball passes to the V pass switch SW3. In addition, it is configured to shift to a probable change state after the end of the big hit game. Further, in this production example, the number of prize balls that can be obtained when winning is different at the first variable winning opening 234a and the second variable winning opening 235a. 14 prize balls are obtained when winning the second variable prize opening 235a.

  FIG. 59A shows a state in which the second round is being executed. In FIG. 59 (a), an over-winning occurs due to the game ball that has won the first variable winning opening 234a in the first round passing the first count switch SW1 after the second round is started. In this effect example, the decorative symbol display device 208 displays which of the first variable winning port 234a and the second variable winning port 235a the variable winning port has generated over winning. Specifically, the decorative symbol display device 208 displays an over-winning in the first variable winning opening 234a by displaying the character of Tono-sama and displaying a balloon of “Over-winning in upper attacker”. I have been informed. Since the first variable winning opening 234a has a larger number of prize balls to be paid out by winning than the second variable winning opening 235a, there may be a case where the player can have a good feeling. An over winning sound is output from the speaker 120. At the timing shown in FIG. 59 (a), one game ball has won a prize at the second variable prize opening 235a. Therefore, in the display of the number of winning prizes, the first variable prize slot 234a is won in the first round. The number of winning balls (the number of winnings (1) x the number of winning balls (1)) x the number of winning balls (11) x the number of winning balls (15) = 165) won by winning the second variable winning port 235a “00179” indicating the number of winning balls (179 balls) to which the number of balls (14 balls = 14 balls) is added is displayed.

  FIG. 59B shows a state in which the third round is being executed. In FIG. 59 (B), an over-winning occurs due to the game ball that has won the second variable winning opening 235a in the second round passing the second count switch SW2 after the third round has started. In the decorative symbol display device 208, the character of Tono-sama is displayed and a character display balloon of “over winning at the lower attacker” is displayed, thereby notifying that an over winning has occurred at the second variable winning opening 235a. ing. An over winning sound is output from the speaker 120. At the timing shown in FIG. 59 (b), the first variable winning opening 234a has not yet been won in the third round, and one over winning has occurred in the first variable winning opening 234a in the second round. Since one over winning to the second variable winning school 235a occurred in the third round, the number of winning balls (the number of winnings) obtained by winning the first variable winning opening 234a in the first round is displayed in the winning prize display. (11) x number of winning balls (15) = 165) Number of winning balls (winning (11) x number of winning balls (14) won by winning the second variable winning port 235a in the second round) ) = 154), “00319” indicating the total number of award balls (319) is displayed.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 59 (b ′), the over winning effect in the decorative symbol display device 208 may not be performed for the over winning in the second variable winning opening 235a. In FIG. 59 (b ′), the over winning sound is output, but the over winning sound may not be output. That is, the over winning effect is executed for the first variable winning opening 234a having a large number of winning balls when winning, and the over winning for the second variable winning opening 235a having a small number of winning balls when winning is achieved. The production may not be executed. Alternatively, the contents of the over winning effect may be different.

  FIG. 59 (c) shows another example of the over-winning effect. FIG. 59 (c) shows a state in which the second round is being executed. In the decorative symbol display device shown in FIG. 59 (c), the upper attacker winning number display indicating the number of game balls won in the first variable winning slot 234a and the number of game balls won in the second variable winning slot 235a are displayed. A lower attacker winning number display is displayed. In FIG. 59 (c), an over-winning occurs due to the game ball that entered the first variable winning opening 234a in the first round passing through the first count switch SW1 after the second round was started. . In this effect example, even if an over winning is generated, the upper attacker winning number display is not updated, and only the over winning sound is output from the speaker 120.

  FIG. 59 (d) shows an upper attacker winning prize ball indicating the number of winning balls obtained by winning in the first variable winning opening 234a in place of the upper attacker winning number display and the lower attacker winning number display in FIG. 59 (c). The decorative symbol display device 208 displays a number display and a lower attacker-acquired winning ball number display indicating the number of winning balls won by winning the second variable winning opening 235a. In FIG. 59 (d) as well, an over-winning occurs due to the game ball that entered the first variable winning opening 234a in the first round passing through the first count switch SW1 after the second round was started. . In this effect example, even if an overwinning occurs, the upper attacker winning prize ball number display is not updated, and only the over winning sound is output from the speaker 120.

  FIG. 60 is a schematic front view of a game board 200 showing another example of the game board 200 shown in FIG.

  The game board 200 shown in FIG. 60 has an outcounting sensor SW5 that always detects a game ball flowing down on a communication path communicating with the right path of the game area 124 formed between the effect device 206 and the outer rail 202. Is provided. This out-counting sensor SW5 detects a game ball that is fired toward the right path of the game area 124 by being hit to the right. That is, the game ball flowing down the left path of the game area 124 is not detected. In the big hit game, the probability variation state, and the short-time state, the left-handed player is not usually left-handed. As a result, accurate information may be given to the player. In particular, there are cases where accurate information can be given to the player regarding the game ball launched toward the right path. The outcount sensor SW5 may be provided in the out port 240. Also, the game balls collected from the out port 240 and each winning port (first variable winning port 234a, second variable winning port 235a, special figure 1 starting port 230, special figure 2 starting port 232, general winning port 226, etc.) An out-counting sensor SW5 may be provided on a ball path through which game balls collected by winning a prize pass. At this time, for example, when the attacker unit 2340 shown in FIG. 44 is adopted in the game board 200 shown in FIG. 60, the game ball moves the discharge ball detection switch SW4 provided in the second variable winning opening 235a. The game ball may be configured to further pass through the outcount sensor SW5 after passing, or the game ball that has won a winning opening without the discharge ball detection switch SW4 may pass through the outcount sensor SW5. Alternatively, the number of outs may be counted by the sum of the number of game balls detected by the outcount sensor SW5 and the number of game balls detected by the discharge ball detection switch SW4. The outcount sensor SW5 may be provided on the firing rail. At this time, in order to accurately calculate the number of shot balls, a sensor may be provided also in the foul passage. Further, the outcount sensor SW5 may be provided on a launch passage formed between the inner rail 204 and the outer rail 202 of the game board 200, for example, a return prevention attached to the tip of the inner rail 204. It may be provided in the vicinity of the member.

  FIG. 61 is a diagram showing an example of a specific effect in the big hit game. The effect example shown in FIG. 61 is implemented by applying the game board 200 shown in FIG. The following figure shows how the production progresses in alphabetical order in parentheses.

  FIG. 61 (a) shows a state in which a big hit game with a 15R special big hit that will shift to a probable change state after the big hit game ends and a big hit game start effect is executed. As shown in FIG. 61 (a), in the big hit game start effect, the decorative symbol display device 208 displays a character image of “probable big hit” together with a background image celebrating the big hit (not shown here). Audio output indicating that it is a big hit is performed. Further, in this effect example, a main control unit out counter is provided in the RAM 308 of the main control unit 300, and a sub control unit out counter is provided in the RAM 408 of the first sub control unit 400. The main control unit out counter and the sub control unit out counter respectively count the number of game balls that have passed through the out count sensor SW5 in the big hit game and in the electric support state (during probability change, short time). The main control unit out counter and the sub control unit out counter may be configured to be cleared simultaneously with the start of the big hit start effect, or may be cleared at a timing prior to the start of the big hit start effect. Alternatively, it may be cleared at the timing after the big hit start effect starts.

  FIG. 61 (b) shows a state where a big hit start effect is being performed. In the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 61 (b), a right-handed notification image for notifying that right-handed is to be displayed is displayed. In addition, audio output indicating that the speaker 120 should be right-handed is also performed. In the right-handed notification image, a recommended game ball launch route is indicated by an arrow on the image simulating the game board 200, and a character display of “right-handed” is appended. This may allow the player to recognize that he should make a right strike.

  When the big hit game start effect is completed and the first round is started, as shown in FIG. 61 (c), the first variable winning opening 234a is opened, and the open state is maintained. Further, in the decorative symbol display device 208, 1R character display is performed in the upper left corner as a round number display, and it is notified that it is the first round. In addition, a display for urging the player to make a right strike is made at the upper center of the center to notify the player that the player is making a right strike. In addition, “decoration 7” is displayed in the upper right corner of the decorative symbol display device 208 and is continuously displayed until the big hit game end effect is started. In addition, below the display of “decoration 7”, the number of consecutive resorts is displayed. In the production example shown in FIG. 61 (c), since it is the first big hit game, “first time” is displayed as the number of consecutive games. Further, below the display of the number of consecutive games, an actual acquired prize ball number display indicating the number of prize balls actually acquired at the jackpot is performed. This actual winning prize ball number display is based on the number of prize balls paid out by winning a game ball to the first variable winning slot 234a and the second variable winning slot 235a, and passes through the out-counting sensor SW5 to the sub-control unit. The number of award winning balls substantially obtained by subtracting the number of game balls (out number) counted by the out counter is shown. At the timing shown in FIG. 61 (c), there is still no winning of a game ball to the variable winning opening, five game balls pass through the out-counting sensor SW5, and the value of the sub-control unit out counter becomes “5”. As shown, the actual number of winning balls is “−5”. However, in this embodiment, when the actual winning ball number is less than “0”, the actual winning ball number display is “ "00000" is displayed. When the actual winning prize ball number is less than “0”, a value less than 0 (for example, “−00005”) may be displayed as the actual winning prize ball number display. Further, instead of displaying the actual acquired award ball number display, an actual total acquired award ball number display indicating the total acquired award winning ball number may be performed.

  Thereafter, when one game ball wins the first variable winning opening 234a, as shown in FIG. 61 (d), the decorative symbol display device 208 displays “00009” as the actual number of winning balls. That is, from the number of winning balls (15 balls) acquired for one winning at the first variable winning opening 234a, the number of game balls counted by the sub-control unit out counter through the out counting sensor SW5 A display corresponding to the actual number of winning balls (9) obtained by subtracting the number (6) is performed.

  FIG. 61 (e) shows that ten game balls have won the first variable winning opening 234a, the value of the main control section winning counter 1 is “10”, and the number of winnings to the first variable winning opening 234a is the maximum winning. Therefore, the first variable prize winning opening 234a is closed and the remaining ball is detected. In FIG. 61 (e), one remaining ball that has been accepted by the first variable winning opening 234a but has not yet passed through the first count switch SW1 is rolling in the first variable winning opening 234a. . This game ball is an eleventh game ball for the first variable winning opening 234a, and is a game ball that will be over-winned. In the decorative symbol display device 208, there were 10 game balls won in the first variable winning opening 234a and 21 game balls passed to the outcount sensor SW5. “00129” is displayed.

  FIG. 61 (f) shows a state in which the first round has been completed and the interval has shifted to the interval between rounds. In the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 61 (f), the display of the number of rounds is erased, 10 game balls are won in the first round, and 27 game balls pass to the out-counting sensor SW5. Since there were 10 winning prizes × 15 winning balls-27 out balls, the actual winning prize ball number is 123, and “00123” is displayed as the actual winning winning ball number display. At this time, in the first variable winning opening 234a, a game ball that has entered the first variable winning opening 234a in the first round but has not yet passed through the first count switch SW1 rolls in the first variable winning opening 234a. It is moving.

  Thereafter, when the second round is started, as shown in FIG. 61 (g), the second variable winning opening 235a is opened, and the decorative symbol display device 208 performs 2R character display as the round number display. After that, the number of out balls is 31, and “00119” is displayed as the actual winning prize ball number display. Note that the game ball that is rolling in the first variable prize winning opening 234a has not yet passed through the first count switch SW1.

  Thereafter, the game ball rolling in the first variable winning slot 234a passes the first count switch SW1, and the values of the main control unit winning counter 1 and the sub control unit winning counter 1 become “11”, respectively. It is determined that there was a prize. Then, as shown in FIG. 61 (h), an over winning sound is output from the speaker 120. At this time, in the actual winning prize ball number display, the over winning prize is added and the number of out balls is 31, so “00134” is displayed.

  FIG. 62 (i) is a diagram showing a continuation of the effect example shown in FIG.

  In FIG. 62 (i) continuing from FIG. 61 (h), there is one game ball winning in the second variable winning opening 235a, and 33 game balls have passed to the outcounting sensor SW5. The number of winning prizes x 15 winning balls-33 out balls and the number of actual winning prize balls is 147, and "00147" is displayed as the actual winning prize ball number display.

  FIG. 62A to FIG. 62F are diagrams for describing a modified example of the display of the number of winning prize balls.

  FIG. 62A shows a state when the second round is started. When the second round is started, as shown in FIG. 62A, the second variable winning opening 235a is opened, and the decorative symbol display device 208 performs 2R character display as the round number display. Further, in this effect example, a display of the number of winning prize balls is displayed below the display of the number of consecutive games. Here, since the number of winning prize balls displayed in the first round is 10 for the first variable winning opening 234a, it is “00150” corresponding to the number of winning balls acquired.

  Then, when the effect button 136 is operated at the timing shown in FIG. 62 (b), the screen is displayed as shown in FIG. 62 (c). That is, in FIG. 62C, the display is switched from the display of the number of winning prize balls to the display of the number of winning prize balls. At the timing shown in FIG. 62 (c), since there are 27 out balls, this corresponds to the actual number of winning balls (123) obtained by subtracting out balls (27) from the number of winning balls (150). “00123” is displayed as the actual acquisition number display.

  Further, when the effect button 136 is operated at the timing shown in FIG. 62 (d), the display is switched from the actual winning prize ball number display to the acquired winning ball number display again as shown in FIG. 62 (e). As described above, in the present embodiment, it is possible to switch between the acquired prize ball number display and the actual acquired prize ball number display by the operation of the effect button 136. It should be noted that, by operating the effect button 136, the total winning prize ball number display and the actual total winning prize ball number display may be switched and displayed. Note that the operation means that can switch between the display of the number of winning prize balls and the display of the number of winning prize balls is not limited to the effect button 136, and may be, for example, an operation key unit 137 or a touch panel that can be operated by the player. And an effect lever may be provided so that the winning prize ball number display and the actual winning prize ball number display can be switched.

  FIG. 62 (f) shows a display of the number of winning prize balls displayed below the display of the number of consecutive games, and a display of the number of winning prize balls displayed below that. Thus, the winning prize ball number display and the actual winning prize ball number display may be displayed simultaneously.

  FIG. 63 is a diagram showing a specific effect example of the winning effect in the big hit game. The following figure shows how the production progresses in alphabetical order in parentheses. In addition, in this production example, when it is a big hit by the probability variation symbol, it is configured to shift to a probability variation state after the big hit game ends.

  FIG. 63 (a) shows a state in which a big hit game with 15R special big hit that will shift to a probable change state after the big hit game ends and a big hit game start effect is executed. As shown in FIG. 63 (a), in the big hit game start effect, the decorative symbol display device 208 displays a character image of “probable big hit” together with a background image (not shown here) celebrating the big hit. Audio output indicating that it is a big hit is performed.

  When the big hit game start effect is finished and the first round is started, as shown in FIG. 63 (b), the first variable winning opening 234a is opened and the open state is maintained. Further, in the decorative symbol display device 208, 1R character display is performed in the upper left corner as a round number display, and it is notified that it is the first round. In addition, a display for urging the player to make a right strike is made at the upper center of the center to notify the player that the player is making a right strike. The display for prompting the right hit may be displayed simultaneously with the start of the big hit game. In addition, “decoration 7” is displayed in the upper right corner of the decorative symbol display device 208 and is continuously displayed until the big hit game end effect is started. In addition, below the display of “decoration 7”, the number of consecutive resorts is displayed. In the production example shown in FIG. 63 (b), since it is the first big hit game, “first time” is displayed as the number of consecutive games. Further, below the display of the number of consecutive games, there is an acquired prize ball number display indicating the number of prize balls won in the jackpot. At the timing shown in FIG. 63 (b), one game ball to the first variable winning opening 234a passes through the first count switch SW1, and the value of the main control unit winning counter 1 is “1”. Since the main control unit 300 does not transmit the big winning port winning command related to winning to the first variable winning port 234a of the game ball to the first sub controlling unit 400, the value of the sub control unit winning counter 1 is “ It remains “0”. Accordingly, the winning prize ball number display is still “00000”.

  Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 63 (c), the first sub-control unit 400 receives from the main control unit 300 a big prize opening prize command related to winning to the first variable prize-winning slot 234a, and thereby receives a sub-control part prize. The value of the counter 1 is “1”. Therefore, “00015” indicating that 15 winning balls have been acquired is displayed in the acquired winning ball number display. Also, in this production example, every time there is a winning in the variable winning opening, a winning sound indicating that winning is output from the speaker 120. Thereby, the player may be able to recognize that there has been a winning in the variable winning opening. Note that the winning sound may be varied depending on, for example, the value (count number) of the sub-control unit winning counter. The notification mode for notifying that there has been a prize is not limited to sound, but is displayed by the decorative symbol display device 208, a light emitter by the game board lamp 532, the game table frame lamp 542, or the like, or the shielding device 246. Or the operation of the effect movable body 224.

  In FIG. 63D, the main control unit winning counter 1 becomes “10” and the number of winnings to the first variable winning opening 234a becomes the maximum winning number, so the first variable winning opening 234a is closed and the first variable winning opening 234a is closed. The variable winning opening 234a is in the closed state, indicating that the remaining ball is in the detected state. In addition, since 10 game balls were won in the first round, the number of winning prizes was 15 times × 15 winning balls, and “00150” was displayed as the number of winning prize balls displayed. ing. A winning sound is output from the speaker 120. At this time, in the first variable winning opening 234a, a game ball that has entered the first variable winning opening 234a in the first round but has not yet passed through the first count switch SW1 rolls in the first variable winning opening 234a. It is moving. It should be noted that the winning sound may be varied only when the maximum winning number (tenth) is won. In other words, when the maximum number of winnings has been won, a specific winning sound may be output.

  FIG. 63 (e) shows a state in which the second round is started. In FIG. 63 (e), the game ball that has been rolling in the first variable winning opening 234a passes through the first count switch SW1, and as a result, the values of the main control unit winning counter 1 and the sub control unit winning counter 1 Are both “11”. Therefore, an over winning is generated and an over winning sound is output from the speaker 120. At this time, in the winning prize ball number display, the amount of over winning is added and “00165” is displayed. Even if it is an over-winning, a normal winning sound may be output. Further, only notification that there has been a winning, such as the output of a winning sound, may be performed, and even if an over winning is generated, notification that an over winning has been made may not be performed. Moreover, although the notification (winning sound) that there is a winning and the notification (over winning sound) that there is an over winning are different notification modes, the same notification mode may be used.

  In addition, the acquired winning ball number display, actual acquired winning ball number display, total acquired winning ball number display, and actual total acquired winning ball number display described so far are to the first variable winning port 234a and the second variable winning port 235a. The display is changed in accordance with the number of winning balls obtained by winning the prize. For example, in the electric support state (probability change state / short-time state), the number of winning balls acquired by winning the special figure 2 starting port 232 is obtained. Including these may be displayed. Furthermore, these displays may be performed including the number of winning balls acquired by winning at the special figure 1 starting port 230 and the general winning port 226.

Explained.

  According to the conventional game table, there is room for improvement in the production means, but according to this game machine, it is possible to provide a game machine characterized by the production means.

  Moreover, according to this game stand, there may be a case where a superiority can be given to a player who has noticed an over-winning effect.

  In addition, according to this game stand, it is possible to prevent the effect that changes according to the number of winnings from being included in the effect for the over winning portion. There is a case where it is possible to improve the interest of the game without feeling.

  Here, the first effect means may be a means for producing an effect by displaying an image such as a display device, or a light emitting means such as an LED, in addition to a means for producing an effect by outputting sound such as a speaker. It may be a movable means such as a movable body for production, or may be a means for vibrating a member directly operated by the player, such as a ball launching handle or a production button.

  Further, the second effect means may be a means for producing an effect by outputting a sound such as a speaker, a light emitting means such as an LED, in addition to a means for producing an effect by displaying an image on a display device or the like. It may be a movable means such as a movable body, or a means for vibrating a member directly operated by a player, such as a ball launching handle or an effect button.

  Further, the first effect means and the second effect means may be different kinds of effect means or the same kind of effect means. Further, the first effect means and the second effect means may be the same effect means (for example, the first effect means and the second effect means are realized by the display means).

  Further, the over winning effect may be different from the effect indicating the winning that is not the over winning (for example, the effect executed when the first to tenth game balls win the variable winning means) or the same. It may be.

  The second effect means is a means capable of executing a third effect different from the over-winning effect or the winning effect during the period in which the over-winning effect is being executed.

Also explained.

  According to this gaming machine, the maximum number of winnings to the second variable winning means, including the number of game balls won to the first variable winning means since the second variable winning means has been opened, is the maximum winning number. When an over-winning appearance that exceeds the number occurs, the third over-winning sound is output, which may make the player feel good.

  Further, according to this gaming machine, even if the second variable winning means is opened and the first variable winning means is won, it is not determined as over winning and no over winning sound is output. In some cases, the first variable winning means and the second variable winning means can be watched.

  Here, the counting means may be capable of starting counting only the number of game balls won in the second variable winning means when the second variable winning means changes to the easy-to-enter state. In addition, when the second variable winning means changes to the easy-to-enter state, it may be possible to start other than counting the number of game balls won in the second variable winning means. The counting means may be capable of starting counting the number of game balls won in the second variable winning means only when the second variable winning means changes to the easy-to-enter state. In addition to the case where the second variable winning means changes to the easy entering state, it may be possible to start other than counting the number of game balls won in the second variable winning means. The counting means may always start counting the number of game balls won in the second variable winning means when the second variable winning means changes to the easy-to-enter state. When the second variable winning means changes to the easy-to-enter state, the counting of the number of game balls won in the second variable winning means may not be started.

  In addition, when the number of game balls counted by the counting means exceeds the second maximum winning number, the third over winning sound may be necessarily output by the sound output means, or counted by the counting means. When the number of game balls exceeds the second maximum winning number, the third over winning sound may not be output by the sound output means.

In addition, “first control means [for example, main control unit 300];

Also explained.

  According to this game table, the number of game balls won in the first variable winning means and the number of game balls won in the second variable winning means are managed in one storage area, so the processing is simplified. There are cases where it is possible.

  In addition, according to this gaming machine, the first variable winning means is in a closed state, and even if the second variable winning means is in an open state, it is difficult to enter a ball if it is during the first effective period. In some cases, it is possible to cause a sense of incongruity to be executed in relation to the game ball won in the first variable winning means, and to concentrate the player on the game.

  Here, the second control means may be capable of executing only control of the sound output means, or may be capable of executing control other than control of the sound output means. Further, the second control means may necessarily execute control of the sound output means, or may not execute control of the sound output means.

  The first control means may be capable of transmitting the first passage information only to the second control means when the game ball passes through the first passage area. When the game ball passes through the passing area, the first passing information may be transmitted other than the second control means. The first control means may be capable of transmitting the first passage information to the second control means only when the game ball passes through the first passage area. In addition to the case where the game ball has passed through the passage area, the first passage information may be transmitted to the second control means. The first control means may always transmit the first passage information to the second control means when the game ball passes through the first passage area. When the game ball passes through the area, the first passing information may not be transmitted to the second control means.

  The first control means may be capable of transmitting the second passage information only to the second control means when a game ball wins the second variable winning means, When a game ball wins the variable winning means, the second passing information may be transmitted in addition to the second control means. The first control means may be capable of transmitting the second passage information to the second control means only when a game ball has won the second variable winning means. In addition to the case where the game ball has won the variable winning means, the second passing information may be transmitted to the second control means. Further, the first control means may always transmit the second passage information to the second control means when a game ball wins the second variable winning means, When a game ball wins the variable winning means, the second passing information may not be transmitted to the second control means.

  The second control means may be capable of storing the counting result of the counting means only in the third storage area, or may store the counting result of the counting means in an area other than the third storage area. It may be possible. Further, the second control means may always store the counting result of the counting means in the third storage area, or may not store the counting result of the counting means in the third storage area. Also good.

  The second control means outputs a third over winning sound to the sound output means when the value indicating the counting result of the counting means stored in the third storage area exceeds the second maximum winning number. Only the control to be output may be executable, or when the value indicating the counting result of the counting means stored in the third storage area exceeds the second maximum winning number, the sound output means Controls other than the control for outputting the third over winning sound may be executed. In addition, the second control means outputs the third over winning sound to the sound output means only when the value indicating the counting result of the counting means stored in the third storage area exceeds the second maximum winning number. May be capable of executing the control to output, or even when the value indicating the counting result of the counting means stored in the third storage area exceeds the second maximum winning number, The sound output means may be capable of executing control for outputting the third over winning sound. In addition, when the value indicating the counting result of the counting means stored in the third storage area exceeds the second maximum number of winnings, a control for causing the sound output means to output the third over winning sound is surely executed. Or a third over winning sound is output to the sound output means when the value indicating the counting result of the counting means stored in the third storage area exceeds the second maximum winning number. There is a case where the control to be executed is not executed.

  The counting means may be capable of starting counting the number of game balls that have passed through the first passing area when the first variable winning means changes to the easy-to-enter state. In this case, when the game ball passes through the first passing area after the second variable winning means changes to the easy-to-enter state, the counting means has the gaming ball pass through the first passing area. You may count as the game ball which passed. And the number of game balls that have entered the second variable winning means, and the number of game balls that have passed through the first passing area after the second variable winning means has changed to the easy-to-enter state. A third over winning sound may be output when the total exceeds the second maximum winning number.

The eleventh game ball that entered the ball 234a is awarded after the second round is started, and the winning sound is output from the speaker 120, etc.]
A game stand characterized by that. ]
Explained.

  In the conventional game machine, there is room for improvement in the notification means, but according to this game machine, it is possible to realize a game machine characterized by the notification means.

  In addition, according to this gaming machine, since the first notification may be performed during the period in which the first valid period and the open state of the second attacker overlap, the game that has passed through the first passing area The player may be able to easily recognize that the ball is effective.

  In addition, according to this gaming table, the first notification may be performed in a state where the player can enter the third passage area, so that the player can pass the game ball to the third passage area and the first passage area. In some cases, it can be clearly distinguished from the passing of the game ball to the passing area.

  Here, the notification means may be capable of executing only the first notification and the second notification, or may be capable of executing notification other than the first notification and the second notification. . Further, the notification means may always execute the first notification and the second notification, or may not execute at least one of the first notification and the second notification.

  The first attacker may be changeable only between the open state and the closed state, or may be changeable other than in the open state and the closed state. The first attacker may always change between the open state and the closed state, or may not change between the open state and the closed state.

  The second attacker may be changeable only between the open state and the closed state, or may be changeable other than in the open state and the closed state. The second attacker may always change between the open state and the closed state, or may not change between the open state and the closed state.

  In addition, the first passing area may be one in which only a game ball that has entered the first attacker can pass, or a game ball other than the game ball that has entered the first attacker can pass through. It may be a thing. In addition, the first passing area may be the one through which the game ball that has entered the first attacker passes, or the game ball that has entered the first attacker may not pass through. .

  In addition, the second passing area may be such that only a game ball that has entered the second attacker can pass, or a game ball other than the game ball that has entered the second attacker can pass. It may be a thing. In addition, the second passing area may be such that a game ball that has entered the second attacker always passes, or a game ball that has entered the second attacker may not pass. .

  In addition, the third passing area may be one in which only a game ball entered in the second attacker can pass, or a game ball other than a game ball entered in the second attacker can pass. It may be a thing. In addition, the third passing area may be the one that the game ball that has entered the second attacker passes without fail, or the game ball that has entered the second attacker may not pass. .

  In addition, the passage of the game ball to the first passing area is only valid until the first valid period starting after the first attacker changes from the open state to the closed state. The game ball may pass to the first passing area in addition to the first valid period starting after the first attacker changes from the open state to the closed state. It may be configured to be effective. In addition, the configuration is such that the passing of the game ball to the first passing area is always valid until the first valid period starting after the first attacker changes from the open state to the closed state. Or the passing of the game ball to the first passing area is not valid until the first valid period starting after the first attacker changes from the open state to the closed state There may be.

  Further, it may be configured such that the passing of the game ball to the second passing area is valid only during the period in which the second attacker is in the open state, or the period in which the second attacker is in the open state. Even in a period other than the above, it may be configured such that the passing of the game ball to the second passing area is made effective. Further, it may be configured such that the passing of the game ball to the second passing area is always valid during the period in which the second attacker is in the open state, or the period in which the second attacker is in the open state. , There may be a case where the passing of the game ball to the second passing area is not effective.

  Further, during the execution of the big hit game, the probability variation state may be configured to be started after the big hit game is completed only when the game ball that has entered the second attacker passes the third passing area. While the big hit game is being executed, the probability variation state may be configured to be started after the big hit game is finished, in addition to the case where the game ball entering the second attacker passes through the third passing area. In addition, when the big hit game is being executed, if the game ball that has entered the second attacker passes through the third passing area, the probability variation state may be surely started after the big hit game ends, During the execution of the game, even if the game ball that has entered the second attacker passes through the third passing area, the probability variation state may not be started after the end of the big hit game.

  In addition, the first notification may notify only that the game ball has passed the first passing area, or may be notified in cases other than when the gaming ball has passed the first passing area. You may do. In addition, the first notification may be a notification that the game ball has passed the first passage area, or may not notify that the game ball has passed the first passage area. May be.

  Further, the second notification may be changeable only in accordance with the number of game balls that have passed through the first passage area and the number of game balls that have passed through the second passage area. It may be changeable depending on cases other than the number of game balls that have passed through the area and the number of game balls that have passed through the second pass area. Further, the second notification may always change according to the number of game balls that have passed through the first passage area and the number of game balls that have passed through the second passage area. There may be a case where it does not change according to the number of game balls that have passed through and the game ball that has passed through the second passage area.

  In addition, the first notification can be started only when the game ball passes through the first passing area until the first valid period elapses after the first attacker is closed. It may be possible to start other than when the game ball passes through the first passing area until the first valid period elapses after the first attacker is closed. Good. Further, the first notification may be started whenever the game ball passes through the first passage area before the first validity period elapses after the first attacker is closed. However, there may be a case where the game ball does not start even if it passes through the first passing area until the first valid period elapses after the first attacker is closed.

  The first notification is a concept that includes an over-winning notification and a winning notification such that a sound is output every time it is detected by an attacker's winning sensor. That is, not only over winning notifications but also notifications according to the passing of game balls to winning sensors even when the attacker is in the closed state are included. Here, the first notification may be one of over winning notification and winning notification.

  Also, the second notification may be a winning number display indicating the number of winnings of the first attacker and the second attacker, or the winning number of the first attacker and the winning of the second attacker. It may be a single winning number display summarizing the numbers. Alternatively, the number of winning prizes may be displayed indicating the number of prize balls to be paid out in accordance with each winning of the first attacker and the second attacker, or the prize to be paid out in accordance with winning in the first attacker. It may be one acquired prize ball number display that summarizes the number of balls and the number of prize balls to be paid out in accordance with the winning of the second attacker.

  In addition, the first attacker's over-winning notification may be performed even when the second attacker is open, but the first attacker's winning notification is not performed when the second attacker is in the open state. It may be.

  The first notification performed by winning the first attacker and the notification performed by winning the second attacker may be the same or different.

  The probability variation state is a state in which a big hit symbol is more easily displayed than the non-probability variation state.

In addition, “One of the plurality of types of notification is a notification that the game ball has passed through the third passage area (hereinafter referred to as“ third notification [for example, FIG. 48 (m), 49 (f), which is a notification indicating that the probability variation acquisition has been confirmed, etc. ")".
The third notification is a notification that may be started when the game ball passes the third passing area [for example, as shown in FIGS. 48 (m) and 49 (f), V passing When the switch SW3 is passed, “V” is displayed as a notification that the probability variation has been confirmed, etc.]
A game stand characterized by that. ]
Also explained.

  According to this gaming table, when part or all of the first notification overlaps with part or all of the third notification, the player may be able to prevent both notifications from being overlooked. .

  In addition, according to this game table, a player who is blessed with respect to each of the two notifications of the first notification and the third notification wants to see such notification again, so he / she is not careful about the launch of the game ball. In some cases, it is possible to concentrate by games, such as attaching.

  Here, the third notification may be started only when the game ball passes through the third passage area, or may be started other than when the game ball passes through the third passage area. It may be done. In addition, the third notification may be always started when the game ball passes the third passage area, or may not start even when the game ball passes the third passage area. There may be.

Further, “movable means [for example, a position that can be moved to a first position [for example, the position that is in the closed state shown in FIG. 46 (a)] and a second position [for example, the position that is in the open state]] V shutter 2352a etc. shown in FIG.
The third passing area is a passing area through which a game ball that has passed the second passing area can pass,
The first position is a position at which the game ball that has passed through the second passage area is prevented from passing through the third passage area [for example, the V shutter 2352a is forward of the mounting base 2340a. When it is in the advanced state (closed state), the game ball is prevented from entering the V passage 2340g, etc.]
The second position is a position that allows a game ball that has passed through the second passage area to pass through the third passage area [for example, the V shutter 2352a is located behind the mounting base 2340a. When the vehicle is in the retracted state (open state), the game ball is allowed to enter the V passage 2340g.
The movable means is configured to move from the first position to the second position during the period in which the second attacker is in the open state [for example, as shown in FIG. At the timing when 2 is in the operating state, the probability variation operating region solenoid SOL3 is driven and the V shutter 2352a is in the open state, etc.]
A game stand characterized by that. ]
Also explained.

  According to this game table, it becomes possible to control the passage of the game ball to the third passage area, and the game performance may be improved.

  Here, the movable means may be movable only between the first position and the second position, or may be movable other than the first position and the second position. Also good. In addition, the movable means may always move to the first position and the second position, or may not move to the first position and the second position.

  In addition, the third passing area may be one in which only a game ball that has passed through the second passing area may pass, or a gaming ball other than a gaming ball that has passed through the second passing area may also pass. It may be a thing. In addition, the third passing area may be one in which the game ball that has passed through the second passing area necessarily passes, or the gaming ball that has passed through the second passing area may not pass through. .

  Further, the movable means may be configured to move from the first position to the second position only during the period in which the second attacker is in the open state, or other than the period in which the second attacker is in the open state. Also during this period, the movable means may be configured to move from the first position to the second position. Further, the movable means may be configured to always move from the first position to the second position during the period when the second attacker is in the open state, or during the period when the second attacker is in the open state. The movable means may not move from the first position to the second position.

  In addition, a fifth passing area [for example, an area provided with the discharge ball detection switch SW4] through which a game ball entering the second attacker can pass is provided, and the fifth passing area is more than the movable means. It is an area on the downstream side, and is configured so that a game ball that has passed through the second passage area cannot enter the third passage area when the movable means is in the first position [for example, closed state]. The game ball that has passed through the second passing area may enter the fifth passing area when the movable means is in the first position [for example, in a closed state or the like].

  The control means is a means for performing control to move the movable means from the first position to the second position when the movement condition is established, and the requirement for satisfying the movement condition is that the second attacker It may be a requirement including a change from the closed state to the open state.

In addition, “the jackpot game is composed of a plurality of rounds [for example, 15 rounds,
One round of the plurality of rounds is a first round [for example, 14 rounds, etc.]
One round of the plurality of rounds is a second round [for example, 15 rounds, etc.]
One round of the plurality of rounds is a third round [for example, any one or two or more of the first to thirteenth rounds,
The first round is a round that starts after the third round;
The second round is a round that starts after the first round;
The first round is a round in which the second attacker is in the open state,
The second round is a round in which the second attacker is in the open state,
The third round is a round in which the first attacker is in the open state.
A game stand characterized by that. ]
According to this game table, since there are a plurality of rounds in which the second attacker is in an open state, the chances of passing through the third passage area are increased, and the gameability may be improved.

  Here, the jackpot game may consist of only the first round, the second round, and the third round, and may include rounds other than the first round, the second round, and the third round. It may be configured. The jackpot game may include a first round, a second round, and a third round, or any one of the first round, the second round, and the third round. The above may not be included.

  Also, the first round may be a round that is started following the third round, or may be a round that is started after the third round with another round interposed therebetween.

  Further, the second round may be a round that is started following the first round, or may be a round that is started after the first round with another round interposed therebetween.

  Further, the first round may be a round that can be started only after the third round, or may be a round that can be started other than after the third round. In addition, the first round may be a round that always starts after the third round, or may not start after the third round.

  Further, the second round may be a round that can be started only after the first round, or may be a round that can be started other than after the first round. The second round may be a round that is always started after the first round, or may not be started after the first round.

Further, “the third passing region is a passing region configured to be able to enter in at least one of the first round and the second round,
A game stand characterized by that. [For example, as shown in FIGS. 52 and 54, the second variable prize opening 235a is opened in the 14th and 15th rounds, and there is a period in which the V shutter 2352a is in an open state in any of the rounds, etc.]]
Also explained.

  According to this game stand, it is possible to give gameability as to whether the third passing area can be passed in either the first round or the second round, and it is possible to improve the interest. There is a case.

  Here, the third passing area may be configured to be accessible in any of the first round and the second round, and the third passing area may be configured to be one of the first round and the second round. You may comprise so that it can approach only in one round.

  Further, the third passing area may be configured to be accessible only in at least one of the first round and the second round, and other than the first round and the second round. You may be comprised so that it can approach also in a round. In addition, the third passing area may be configured to be allowed to enter in at least one of the first round and the second round, and among the first round and the second round There may be cases where entry is not possible in at least one round.

  The third passage area may be configured to be accessible in three or more rounds.

  Further, the first attacker and the second attacker may be configured to be opened in a predetermined order. For example, the first attacker and the second attacker are alternately opened. You may make it open, and you may make it open continuously.

In addition, the game control means [for example, the CPU 304 of the main control unit 300, etc.]
The game control means is a means capable of executing control of the jackpot game [for example, each process related to the jackpot game shown in FIGS.
The game control means is configured when a probability change start condition [for example, when a big hit game is being executed, a game ball passes through the V passing switch SW3 in the effective period of the probability change operation region, and then the big hit game is terminated, etc.] , Means for starting the probability variation state,
The establishment requirement of the probability change start condition is a requirement including that a game ball has passed through the third passage area during execution of the big hit game control by the game control means.
A game stand characterized by that. ]
Also explained.

  According to this game stand, an incentive to allow the player to pass the game ball to the third passing area during the execution of the big hit game is activated, so that the interest of the game may be improved.

  Here, the game control means may be capable of executing only the control of the big hit game, or may be capable of executing control other than the control of the big hit game. The game control means may always execute control of the big hit game, or may not execute the control of the big hit game.

  The game control means may be capable of starting the probability variation state only when the probability variation start condition is satisfied, or may be capable of starting the probability variation state other than when the probability variation start condition is satisfied. May be. In addition, the game control means may always start the probability variation state when the probability variation start condition is satisfied, or may not start the probability variation state when the probability variation start condition is satisfied. .

In addition, “it is configured so that the passing of the game ball to the first passing area is also valid during the period in which the first attacker is in the open state [for example, as shown in FIG. 29 and FIG. 47. As described above, when the special electric combination 1 is activated, the first count switch SW1 is changed to an effective state, and when the special electric combination 2 is activated, the second count switch SW2 is changed to an effective state.
A game stand characterized by that. ]
Also explained.

  According to this game table, when the first attacker is in the open state, it may be possible to reliably detect the passage of the game ball by the first passage detection means.

In addition, “the second attacker is an attacker that is in the closed state during a period in which the first attacker is in the open state [for example, as shown in FIG. 29 and FIG. During the operation, the special power 2 is not operating]
The first attacker is an attacker that is in the closed state during a period in which the second attacker is in the open state [for example, as shown in FIG. 29 and FIG. Is in a non-operating state]

Until it is configured to pass the game ball to the first passing area,
It is configured such that the passing of the game ball to the second passing area is valid at least during the period in which the second attacker is in the open state [for example, as shown in FIG. 29 and FIG. When the special electric combination 2 is activated, the second count switch SW2 is changed to an effective state, and when the special electric combination 1 is activated, the first count switch SW1 is changed to an effective state.
One notification of the plurality of types of notifications is a notification for notifying that a game ball has passed the first passing area (hereinafter referred to as “first notification [for example, FIG. 49 (f), FIG. c3), 53 (i), 55 (e), 55 (h), 56 (f), 56 (g), 58 (e), 59, 61 (h), 63 (c). e) Over winning sound shown in e), over winning effect shown in FIG. 56 (k), winning effect shown in FIGS. 39, 40, 63 (c), 63 (d), etc.]]). And
One notification among the plurality of types of notifications is a notification that changes according to the number of game balls that have passed through the first passage area and the number of game balls that have passed through the second passage area (hereinafter referred to as “second”). [For example, as shown in FIGS. 34 and 55, by displaying the total number of winnings or the number of winning balls, the winnings to the variable winning openings 234, 235 from the start of the jackpot game to the present are displayed. The number of award winning balls is displayed in an identifiable manner, or the total number of winning winning balls is displayed as shown in FIGS. 53 (f) to 53 (j), so that the first big hit game is started. The number of prize balls acquired by winning the variable prize openings 234a and 235a from the present to the present is displayed in an identifiable manner.
The first notification may be started when the game ball passes through the first passing area before the first validity period elapses after the first attacker is in the closed state. [For example, as shown in FIG. 31 (g) and FIG. 55 (e), the eleventh game ball that entered the first variable winning opening 234 (234a) in the first round is the second round. The 11th game that entered the second variable prize opening 235a in the 14th round as shown in FIG. 52 (c3), as shown in FIG. 52 (c3). The ball is won at the interval between rounds after the end of the first round, and an over winning sound is output from the speaker 120, or the second variable prize opening at the 15th round as shown in FIG. 55 (h). The eleventh game ball that entered the ball 35a wins during the execution of the big hit jackpot end effect, and an over winning sound is output from the speaker 120, or as shown in FIG. The eleventh game ball that entered the ball 234a is awarded after the second round is started, and the winning sound is output from the speaker 120, etc.]
The game ball may be paid out when the game ball passes through the first passing area [for example, when the first count switch SW1 is in an active state, the first count switch SW1 is set to the game ball. Etc., a prize ball is paid out, etc.]
The game ball may be paid out when the game ball passes through the second passage area [for example, when the second count switch SW2 is in an effective state, the game ball is moved to the second count switch SW2. Etc., a prize ball is paid out, etc.]
The number of prize balls to be paid out when a game ball passes through the second passage area [for example, 14 pieces] is the number of prize balls to be paid out when a game ball passes through the first passage area [ For example, 15 etc.]

Explained.

  In the conventional game machine, there is room for improvement in the notification means, but according to this game machine, it is possible to realize a game machine characterized by the notification means.

  In addition, according to this gaming machine, since the first notification may be performed during the period in which the first valid period and the open state of the second attacker overlap, the game that has passed through the first passing area The player may be able to easily recognize that the ball is effective.

  Also, since the number of prize balls that can be obtained by winning the first attacker and the number of prize balls that can be obtained by winning the second attacker are different, it is possible to have a variety of gameplay and improve interest. There are cases where it is possible.

  In addition, when the second attacker is in the open state, the winning of the first attacker may be notified, so that the player can have a good feeling and the interest can be improved. There is.

  Here, the notification means may be capable of executing only the first notification and the second notification, or may be capable of executing notification other than the first notification and the second notification. . Further, the notification means may always execute the first notification and the second notification, or may not execute at least one of the first notification and the second notification.

  The first attacker may be changeable only between the open state and the closed state, or may be changeable other than in the open state and the closed state. The first attacker may always change between the open state and the closed state, or may not change between the open state and the closed state.

  The second attacker may be changeable only between the open state and the closed state, or may be changeable other than in the open state and the closed state. The second attacker may always change between the open state and the closed state, or may not change between the open state and the closed state.

  In addition, the first passing area may be one in which only a game ball that has entered the first attacker can pass, or a game ball other than the game ball that has entered the first attacker can pass through. It may be a thing. In addition, the first passing area may be the one through which the game ball that has entered the first attacker passes, or the game ball that has entered the first attacker may not pass through. .

  In addition, the second passing area may be such that only a game ball that has entered the second attacker can pass, or a game ball other than the game ball that has entered the second attacker can pass. It may be a thing. In addition, the second passing area may be such that a game ball that has entered the second attacker always passes, or a game ball that has entered the second attacker may not pass. .

  In addition, the passage of the game ball to the first passing area is only valid until the first valid period starting after the first attacker changes from the open state to the closed state. The game ball may pass to the first passing area in addition to the first valid period starting after the first attacker changes from the open state to the closed state. It may be configured to be effective. In addition, the configuration is such that the passing of the game ball to the first passing area is always valid until the first valid period starting after the first attacker changes from the open state to the closed state. Or the passing of the game ball to the first passing area is not valid until the first valid period starting after the first attacker changes from the open state to the closed state There may be.

  Further, it may be configured such that the passing of the game ball to the second passing area is valid only during the period in which the second attacker is in the open state, or the period in which the second attacker is in the open state. Even in a period other than the above, it may be configured such that the passing of the game ball to the second passing area is made effective. Further, it may be configured such that the passing of the game ball to the second passing area is always valid during the period in which the second attacker is in the open state, or the period in which the second attacker is in the open state. , There may be a case where the passing of the game ball to the second passing area is not effective.

  In addition, the first notification may notify only that the game ball has passed the first passing area, or may be notified in cases other than when the gaming ball has passed the first passing area. You may do. In addition, the first notification may be a notification that the game ball has passed the first passage area, or may not notify that the game ball has passed the first passage area. May be.

  Further, the second notification may be changeable only in accordance with the number of game balls that have passed through the first passage area and the number of game balls that have passed through the second passage area. It may be changeable depending on cases other than the number of game balls that have passed through the area and the number of game balls that have passed through the second pass area. Further, the second notification may always change according to the number of game balls that have passed through the first passage area and the number of game balls that have passed through the second passage area. There may be a case where it does not change according to the number of game balls that have passed through and the game ball that has passed through the second passage area.

  In addition, the first notification can be started only when the game ball passes through the first passing area until the first valid period elapses after the first attacker is closed. It may be possible to start other than when the game ball passes through the first passing area until the first valid period elapses after the first attacker is closed. Good. Further, the first notification may be started whenever the game ball passes through the first passage area before the first validity period elapses after the first attacker is closed. However, there may be a case where the game ball does not start even if it passes through the first passing area until the first valid period elapses after the first attacker is closed.

  In addition, a prize ball may be paid out whenever a game ball passes through the first passing area, or a prize ball may not be paid out when a game ball passes through the first passing area. Good.

  In addition, a prize ball may be paid out whenever a game ball passes through the second passage area, or a prize ball may not be paid out when a game ball passes through the second passage area. Good.

  In addition, the number of prize balls paid out by passing game balls through the second passing area is greater than the number of prize balls paid out by passing game balls through the first passing area. Alternatively, the number of prize balls that are paid out when the game ball passes through the second passing area is more than the number of prize balls that are paid out when the game ball passes through the first passing area. It may be less.

  The first notification is a concept that includes an over-winning notification and a winning notification such that a sound is output every time it is detected by an attacker's winning sensor. That is, not only over winning notifications but also notifications according to the passing of game balls to winning sensors even when the attacker is in the closed state are included. Here, the first notification may be one of over winning notification and winning notification.

  Also, the second notification may be a winning number display indicating the number of winnings of the first attacker and the second attacker, or the winning number of the first attacker and the winning of the second attacker. It may be a single winning number display summarizing the numbers. Alternatively, the number of winning prizes may be displayed indicating the number of prize balls to be paid out in accordance with each winning of the first attacker and the second attacker, or the prize to be paid out in accordance with winning in the first attacker. It may be one acquired prize ball number display that summarizes the number of balls and the number of prize balls to be paid out in accordance with the winning of the second attacker.

  In addition, the first attacker's over-winning notification may be performed even when the second attacker is open, but the first attacker's winning notification is not performed when the second attacker is in the open state. It may be.

  The first notification performed by winning the first attacker and the notification performed by winning the second attacker may be the same or different.

  The probability variation state is a state in which a big hit symbol is more easily displayed than the non-probability variation state.

In addition, “a winning means that allows game balls to enter (for example, the first special figure starting port 230, the second special figure starting port 232, the general winning port 226, etc.);
A fourth passage area through which the game ball entered in the winning means can pass [for example, a game ball entered in the first special figure starting port 230, the second special figure starting port 232, and the general winning port 226 is detected. The area where the sensor 320 is provided, etc.]
With
The winning means is a means different from the first attacker,
The winning means is a means different from the second attacker,

It may be possible to start other than when the game ball passes through the second passing area until the second valid period elapses after the second attacker is closed. Good. Further, the fourth notification may be started whenever the game ball passes through the second passage area until the second validity period elapses after the second attacker is closed. However, there may be a case where the game ball does not start even if the game ball passes through the second passage area until the second valid period elapses after the second attacker is closed.

  The fourth notification is a concept that includes an over-winning notification and a winning notification such that a sound is output every time it is detected by an attacker's winning sensor. That is, not only over winning notifications but also notifications according to the passing of game balls to winning sensors even when the attacker is in the closed state are included. Here, the fourth notification may be one of over winning notification and winning notification.

  The fourth notification may be the same notification mode as the first notification. In this case, for example, the same processing is performed for the first notification and the fourth notification, or the processing for notifying the winning to the first attacker and the winning to the second attacker is performed separately. However, the same data may be used. Accordingly, it is possible to notify the player that there has been either a winning at the first attacker or a winning at the second attacker.

A first attacker that can change between an open state and a closed state (for example, the first variable winning opening 234, 234a (second variable winning opening 235, 235a, etc.));
A second attacker that can change between the open state and the closed state (for example, the second variable winning opening 235, 235a (the first variable winning opening 234, 234a), etc.);
A first passage area [for example, a first count switch SW1 (second count switch SW2), etc.] through which a game ball entering the first attacker can pass;
A second passage area [for example, the second count switch SW2 (first count switch SW1), etc.] through which the game ball entering the second attacker can pass;
A fifth passage area through which the game ball can pass [for example, the outcount sensor SW5 shown in FIG.
A game machine equipped with
The first valid period [for example, the time set by the special electric winning combination 1 winning detection timer (for example, 3 seconds)] has elapsed since the first attacker has changed from the open state to the closed state. Until it is configured to pass the game ball to the first passing area,
It is configured such that the passing of the game ball to the second passing area is valid at least during the period in which the second attacker is in the open state [for example, as shown in FIG. When 2 is activated, the second count switch SW2 is changed to an effective state, and when the electric utility 1 is activated, the first count switch SW1 is changed to an effective state.
One notification of the plurality of types of notifications is a notification for notifying that a game ball has passed the first passing area (hereinafter referred to as “first notification [for example, FIG. 49 (f), FIG. c3), 53 (i), 55 (e), 55 (h), 56 (f), 56 (g), 58 (e), 59, 61 (h), 63 (c). e) Over winning sound shown in e), over winning effect shown in FIG. 56 (k), winning effect shown in FIGS. 39, 40, 63 (c), 63 (d), etc.]]). And
One notification among the plurality of types of notifications is the number of game balls that have passed through the first passage area, game balls that have passed through the second passage area, and game balls that have passed through the fifth passage area. (Hereinafter, “fifth notification [e.g., display of actual winning prize balls shown in FIG. 61 (c) to FIG. 62 (i), FIG. 62 (c) and FIG. Actual total winning prize ball number display etc.] ”),
The fifth passage area is a passage area provided at a position different from the first attacker,
The fifth passage region is a passage region provided at a position different from the second attacker,

The eleventh game ball that entered the ball 35a wins during the execution of the big hit jackpot end effect, and an over winning sound is output from the speaker 120, or as shown in FIG. The eleventh game ball that entered the ball 234a is awarded after the second round is started, and the winning sound is output from the speaker 120, etc.]
A game stand characterized by that. ]
Explained.

  In the conventional game machine, there is room for improvement in the notification means, but according to this game machine, it is possible to realize a game machine characterized by the notification means.

  In addition, according to this gaming machine, since the first notification may be performed during the period in which the first valid period and the open state of the second attacker overlap, the game that has passed through the first passing area The player may be able to easily recognize that the ball is effective.

  Moreover, according to this game stand, since the first notification may be performed in a state where the fifth notification is being performed, the player may be able to easily notice the first notification.

  In addition, according to this game table, the number of game balls actually acquired by the player can be confirmed, so that the performance of the game table may be grasped.

  Here, the notification means may be capable of executing only the first notification and the fifth notification, or may be capable of executing notification other than the first notification and the fifth notification. . Further, the notification means may always execute the first notification and the fifth notification, or may not execute at least one of the first notification and the fifth notification. .

  The first attacker may be changeable only between the open state and the closed state, or may be changeable other than in the open state and the closed state. The first attacker may always change between the open state and the closed state, or may not change between the open state and the closed state.

  The second attacker may be changeable only between the open state and the closed state, or may be changeable other than in the open state and the closed state. The second attacker may always change between the open state and the closed state, or may not change between the open state and the closed state.

  In addition, the first passing area may be one in which only a game ball that has entered the first attacker can pass, or a game ball other than the game ball that has entered the first attacker can pass through. It may be a thing. In addition, the first passing area may be the one through which the game ball that has entered the first attacker passes, or the game ball that has entered the first attacker may not pass through. .

  In addition, the second passing area may be such that only a game ball that has entered the second attacker can pass, or a game ball other than the game ball that has entered the second attacker can pass. It may be a thing. In addition, the second passing area may be such that a game ball that has entered the second attacker always passes, or a game ball that has entered the second attacker may not pass. .

  In addition, the fifth passing area may be one in which only a game ball can pass, or one other than a game ball can pass through. In addition, the fifth passing area may be one where the game ball always passes, or the game ball may not pass.

  In addition, the passage of the game ball to the first passing area is only valid until the first valid period starting after the first attacker changes from the open state to the closed state. The game ball may pass to the first passing area in addition to the first valid period starting after the first attacker changes from the open state to the closed state. It may be configured to be effective. In addition, the configuration is such that the passing of the game ball to the first passing area is always valid until the first valid period starting after the first attacker changes from the open state to the closed state. Or the passing of the game ball to the first passing area is not valid until the first valid period starting after the first attacker changes from the open state to the closed state There may be.

  Further, it may be configured such that the passing of the game ball to the second passing area is valid only during the period in which the second attacker is in the open state, or the period in which the second attacker is in the open state. Even in a period other than the above, it may be configured such that the passing of the game ball to the second passing area is made effective. Further, it may be configured such that the passing of the game ball to the second passing area is always valid during the period in which the second attacker is in the open state, or the period in which the second attacker is in the open state. , There may be a case where the passing of the game ball to the second passing area is not effective.

  In addition, the first notification may notify only that the game ball has passed the first passing area, or may be notified in cases other than when the gaming ball has passed the first passing area. You may do. In addition, the first notification may be a notification that the game ball has passed the first passage area, or may not notify that the game ball has passed the first passage area. May be.

  The fifth notification can be changed only in accordance with the number of game balls that have passed through the first passage area, game balls that have passed through the second passage area, and game balls that have passed through the fifth passage area. Depending on the case other than the number of game balls that have passed through the first passing area, the number of game balls that have passed through the second passing area, and the number of game balls that have passed through the fifth passing area. May also be variable. The fifth notification is always changed according to the number of game balls that have passed through the first passage area, game balls that have passed through the second passage area, and game balls that have passed through the fifth passage area. Depending on the number of game balls that have passed through the first passage area, game balls that have passed through the second passage area, and game balls that have passed through the fifth passage area. It may not change.

  In addition, the first notification can be started only when the game ball passes through the first passing area until the first valid period elapses after the first attacker is closed. It may be possible to start other than when the game ball passes through the first passing area until the first valid period elapses after the first attacker is closed. Good. Further, the first notification may be started whenever the game ball passes through the first passage area before the first validity period elapses after the first attacker is closed. However, there may be a case where the game ball does not start even if it passes through the first passing area until the first valid period elapses after the first attacker is closed.

  The first notification is a concept that includes an over-winning notification and a winning notification such that a sound is output every time it is detected by an attacker's winning sensor. That is, not only over winning notifications but also notifications according to the passing of game balls to winning sensors even when the attacker is in the closed state are included. Here, the first notification may be one of over winning notification and winning notification.

  In addition, the fifth notification may be configured to be able to be notified only during a big hit game, or may be configured to be able to be notified even in the electric support state (probability change state or time-short state).

  In addition, the first attacker's over-winning notification may be performed even when the second attacker is open, but the first attacker's winning notification is not performed when the second attacker is in the open state. It may be.

  The first notification performed by winning the first attacker and the notification performed by winning the second attacker may be the same or different.

  The probability variation state is a state in which a big hit symbol is more easily displayed than the non-probability variation state.

Also, “One of the plurality of types of notifications is a notification that changes according to the number of game balls that have passed through the first passing area and the number of game balls that have passed through the second passing area (hereinafter, “Second notification [For example, as shown in FIG. 34 or FIG. 55, by displaying the total number of winning prizes or the number of winning prize balls, variable winning holes 234 and 235 between the start of the jackpot game and the present time are displayed. By displaying the number of winning balls acquired by winning a prize in a form that can be specified or by displaying the total number of winning balls as shown in FIGS. 53 (f) to (j), The number of prize balls acquired by winning the variable prize opening 234a, 235a from the start of the game to the present is displayed in a manner that can be specified, etc.] ”.

Also explained.

  According to this game table, the player may be able to easily confirm the number of game balls acquired by entering the attacker.

  Here, the second notification may be changeable only in accordance with the number of game balls that have passed through the first passage area and the number of game balls that have passed through the second passage area. It may be changeable depending on cases other than the number of game balls that have passed through the passing area and the number of game balls that have passed through the second passing area. Further, the second notification may always change according to the number of game balls that have passed through the first passage area and the number of game balls that have passed through the second passage area. There may be a case where it does not change according to the number of game balls that have passed through and the game ball that has passed through the second passage area.

In addition, “equipment means that can be operated by the player [for example, production buttons 136, etc.]
When the operation means is operated while the second notification is being notified, the second notification is ended and the fifth notification is started [for example, As shown in FIGS. 62A to 62C, when the effect button 136 is operated while the acquired prize ball number display is displayed, the actual acquired prize ball number display is displayed. ,
A game stand characterized by that. ]
Also explained.

  According to this gaming machine, since the fifth notification and the second notification can be switched by operating the operation means, the notification that the player wants to confirm can be arbitrarily selected, and the width of the game Can be spread.

  Here, the operation means may be operable only by the player, or may be operable by other than the player. The operation means may be always operated by the player or may not be operated by the player.

  Further, the second notification may be terminated and the fifth notification may be started only when the operation means is operated while the second notification is being notified, The second notification may be terminated and the fifth notification may be started even when the operation means is operated when the second notification is notified. The second notification may be terminated and the fifth notification may be started without fail when the operation unit is operated while the second notification is being notified. When the operation unit is operated while the second notification is being notified, the second notification may be terminated and the fifth notification may not be started.

  In addition, you may comprise so that the 2nd alerting | reporting may not be performed in the period when the 5th alerting | reporting is performed. Further, the fifth notification may not be performed during the period in which the second notification is performed.

  Further, the fifth notification may be notified first at the start of the big hit game, and may be configured to be switched to the second notification by operating the operation means, or the second notification may be performed first at the start of the big hit game. May be configured to be switched to the fifth notification by operating the operation means.

  Further, the fifth notification and the second notification may be selected and determined by the operation means at the start of the big hit game. Here, the determined notification may be configured to be switchable by operating the operation means again. Further, it may be configured such that once notification is selected, it cannot be selected during the execution of the jackpot game. In this case, it can be changed at the next switchable opportunity (for example, at the start of the next jackpot game, after the jackpot game ends (probability change state or short time state), when the symbol is stopped, at the start of the next first jackpot game, etc.) May be configured.

Further, “in the jackpot game, the period in which the fifth notification is notified overlaps with the period in which the second notification is notified [for example, as shown in FIG. 62 (f) In addition, the winning prize ball number display and the actual winning ball number display are displayed at the same time]
A game stand characterized by that. ]
Also explained.

  According to this game stand, the fifth notification and the second notification may be confirmed at the same time.

  Here, in the jackpot game, the period in which the fifth notification is notified may be configured to match the period in which the second notification is notified, or the fifth notification is notified. You may comprise so that a part of period and a part of period in which 2nd alerting | reporting is alert | reported may overlap. Further, the period in which the fifth notification is notified may be included in the period in which the second notification is notified, or the period in which the second notification is notified is the fifth notification. May be included in a period in which is notified.

In addition, “the prize ball is not paid out even if the game ball passes through the fifth passage area,

Also explained.

  According to this game stand, improvement in shooting characteristics may be suppressed.

In addition, “equipped with a payout control means [for example, the main control unit 300 and the payout control unit 600, etc.] capable of executing a control for paying out a prize ball,
The payout control means is a means for executing control for paying out a first number [for example, 15 etc.] prize balls when a first payout condition is satisfied,
The payout control means is a means for executing control for paying out a second number [for example, 14 or 15] prize balls when the second payout condition is satisfied,
The requirement for fulfilling the first payout condition is a period during which the passing of the game ball to the first passage area is valid [for example, a period during which the count switch SW1 shown in FIG. 29 or FIG. 47 is valid. Etc.] is a requirement including that the game ball has passed through the first passing area,
The requirement for fulfilling the second payout condition is a period during which the passing of the game ball to the second passage area is valid [for example, a period during which the count switch SW2 shown in FIG. 29 or FIG. 47 is valid. Etc.] is a requirement including that the game ball has passed through the second passage area.
A game stand characterized by that. ]
Also explained.

  Here, the payout control means may be capable of executing only control for paying out a prize ball, or may be capable of executing control other than control for paying out a prize ball. The payout control means may always execute control for paying out a prize ball, or may not execute control for paying out a prize ball.

  The payout control means may execute control for paying out the first number of prize balls only when the first payout condition is satisfied, or when the first payout condition is satisfied. In other cases, control for paying out the first number of prize balls may be executed. The payout control means may execute control for paying out the first number of prize balls when the first payout condition is satisfied, or when the first payout condition is satisfied. In addition, there may be a case where the control for paying out the first number of prize balls is not executed.

  The payout control means may execute control for paying out the second number of prize balls only when the second payout condition is satisfied, or when the second payout condition is satisfied. In other cases, control for paying out the second number of prize balls may be executed. The payout control means may execute control for paying out the second number of prize balls when the second payout condition is satisfied, or the second payout condition is satisfied. In such a case, the control for paying out the second number of prize balls may not be executed.

  In addition, the requirement for establishing the first payout condition is that the game ball only passes through the first passing area during the period when the passing of the game ball to the first passing area is valid. There may be included requirements other than that the game ball has passed through the first passing area in a period in which the passing of the game ball to the first passing area is valid. The establishment requirement of the first payout condition may necessarily include that the game ball has passed through the first passage area in a period in which the passage of the game ball to the first passage area is valid. However, it may not include that the game ball has passed through the first passing area in a period in which the passing of the game ball to the first passing area is valid.

  In addition, the requirement for establishing the second payout condition is that the game ball only passes through the second passing area during the period in which the passing of the game ball to the second passing area is valid. There may be included requirements other than that the game ball has passed through the second passing area in a period in which the passing of the game ball to the second passing area is valid. The establishment requirement of the second payout condition may necessarily include that the game ball has passed the second passage area in a period in which the passage of the game ball to the second passage area is valid. However, in a period in which the passing of the game ball to the second passing area is valid, it may not include that the gaming ball has passed the second passing area.

  Note that the first number and the second number may be different or the same. Further, the first number may be larger than the second number, and the second number may be larger than the first number.

In addition, “it is configured so that the passing of the game ball to the first passing area is also valid during the period in which the first attacker is in the open state [for example, as shown in FIG. 29 and FIG. 47. As described above, when the special electric combination 1 is activated, the first count switch SW1 is changed to an effective state, and when the special electric combination 2 is activated, the second count switch SW2 is changed to an effective state.

Also explained.

In addition, “a second valid period started after the second attacker changes from the open state to the closed state [for example, a time set by the special electric utility 2 winning detection timer (for example, 3 seconds)] Until the time elapses, the passing of the game ball to the second passing area is configured to be effective,
One of the plurality of types of notifications is a notification for notifying that the game ball has passed through the second passage area (hereinafter referred to as “fourth notification [for example, FIG. 32 (k), FIG. c3), winning effect (over winning effect) shown in FIG. 55 (h), FIG. 59 (b), etc.] ”).
The fourth notification may be started when a game ball passes through the second passage area before the second validity period elapses after the second attacker is in the closed state. [For example, as shown in FIG. 32 (k) and FIG. 52 (c3), the eleventh game ball that entered the second variable prize opening 235 (235a) The winning is made after the next round is started, and the over winning sound is outputted from the speaker 120, etc.]
A game stand characterized by that. ]
Also explained.

  According to this gaming machine, since the fourth notification may be performed during a period in which the second effective period and the open state of the first attacker overlap, a game ball that has passed through the second passing area The player may be able to easily recognize that it has been effective.

  Here, the passage of the game ball to the second passing area is only effective until the second effective period starting after the second attacker changes from the open state to the closed state. The passing of the game ball to the second passage area may be performed in addition to the second effective period starting after the second attacker changes from the open state to the closed state. May be configured to be effective. In addition, the configuration is such that the passing of the game ball to the second passage area is always valid until the second validity period started after the second attacker changes from the open state to the closed state. Or the passing of the game ball to the second passage area is not valid until the second validity period that starts after the second attacker changes from the open state to the closed state. There may be.

  In addition, the fourth notification may notify only that the game ball has passed the second passage area, or may be notified in cases other than when the game ball has passed the second passage area. You may do. The fourth notification may be a notification that the game ball has passed the second passage area, or may not notify that the game ball has passed the second passage area. May be.

  In addition, the fourth notification can be started only when the game ball passes through the second passing area until the second effective period elapses after the second attacker is closed. It may be possible to start other than when the game ball passes through the second passing area until the second valid period elapses after the second attacker is closed. Good. Further, the fourth notification may be started whenever the game ball passes through the second passage area until the second validity period elapses after the second attacker is closed. However, there may be a case where the game ball does not start even if the game ball passes through the second passage area until the second valid period elapses after the second attacker is closed.

  The fourth notification is a concept that includes an over-winning notification and a winning notification such that a sound is output every time it is detected by an attacker's winning sensor. That is, not only over winning notifications but also notifications according to the passing of game balls to winning sensors even when the attacker is in the closed state are included. Here, the fourth notification may be one of over winning notification and winning notification.

  The fourth notification may be the same notification mode as the first notification. In this case, for example, the same processing is performed for the first notification and the fourth notification, or the processing for notifying the winning to the first attacker and the winning to the second attacker is performed separately. However, the same data may be used. Accordingly, it is possible to notify the player that there has been either a winning at the first attacker or a winning at the second attacker.

“The notification means includes a plurality of notification means [for example, decorative symbol display device 208, speaker 120, various lamps 418, game board lamp 532, game table frame lamp 542, shielding device 246, production movable body 224, etc. ] Means constituted by

  According to this gaming machine, the first notification and the fifth notification are performed by different notification means, so that the first notification and the fifth notification can be easily identified, and the player can concentrate on the game. May be possible.

  Here, the plurality of notification means may be configured by only the first notification means and the second notification means, or may further include notification means other than the first notification means and the second notification means. May be. In addition, the plurality of notification means may include a first notification means and a second notification means, or include at least one of the first notification means and the second notification means. There may be no cases.

  The first notification may be performed only by the first notification unit, or may be performed by a notification unit other than the first notification unit. The first notification may be always performed by the first notification unit, or may not be performed by the first notification unit.

  The fifth notification may be performed only by the second notification unit, or may be performed by a notification unit other than the second notification unit. In addition, the fifth notification may be necessarily performed by the second notification unit, or may not be performed by the second notification unit.

  Here, the first notifying means is one or a plurality of notifying means among sound output means, light emitting means, effect moving means (such as an accessory), display means, and the like. Is one or a plurality of notifying means among display means, light emitting means, effect moving means (such as an accessory), sound output means and the like. Further, the first notification means and the second notification means may be the same type of means, for example, the relationship between the main display means and the sub display means, the light emitting means for the game platform frame and the game board The relationship between the light emitting means, the light emitting means provided in the first accessory and the light emitting means provided around the center accessory, the relationship between the speaker that outputs the high range and the speaker that outputs the low range, etc. Can be considered.

  The first notification may be, for example, notification performed by one notification unit such as over-winning notification by the sound output unit, or by over-winning sound by the sound output unit and over-winning display by the display unit. It may be a notification performed by a plurality of notification means such as an over winning effect.

  Needless to say, the above is also applicable to the fifth notification.

  Further, the fifth notification may be performed by the first notification means, but the fifth notification may be configured not to be performed.

  Further, the first notification may be performed by the second notification means, but the first notification may not be performed.
