At this time, since each movable body is disposed on the peripheral side of the opening 2c of the game board 2, the display screen of the effect display devices 5A, 5X, 5Y can be viewed from the player (front side) See Figure 13). For example, as shown in FIG. 1, it can be said that the first standby position (origin position) of the first effect movable body 300 is a position where the first effect movable body 300 does not overlap with the effect display device 5A. In addition, the 1st waiting | standby position (origin point position) of the 1st presentation movable body 300 is not limited to this, For example, it is good also as a position which the 1st presentation movable body 300 overlaps with a part of effect display apparatus 5A. Further, as shown in FIG. 16, only a part of the front side of the first effect movable body 300 at the first standby position (origin position) is slightly transmitted through the hole 270 of the rear transmission plate 261. It may enter between the body 250 and the second permeator 260 but not.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 11, in the first operation mode of the movable body unit, the first effect movable body 300 is at the first effect position, the second effect movable body 400 is at the second effect position, and the third effect movable The bodies 500L and 500R are arranged at the third effect position, and the fourth effect movable bodies 600L and 600R are arranged at the fourth standby position, and the first effect movable body 300 is in the first rotation state and the first projecting portion 303 is in the first projecting state, and the second projecting portion 304 is in the second storage state. At this time, the first effect movable body 300, the second effect movable body 400, the third effect movable bodies 500L and 500R, and the first projecting portion 303 are disposed on the front side of the effect display devices 5A, 5X and 5Y, and have a predetermined shape. To unite by bringing them into contact with or close to each other to construct a structure that That is, the CPU 120 for effect control can perform control to move the second effect movable body 400 and the third effect movable bodies 500L and 500R to the first effect movable body 300 so as to be united after performing the first control.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 12, in the second operation mode of the movable body unit, the first effect movable body 300 is at the first effect position, the second effect movable body 400 is at the second standby position, and the third effect movable The bodies 500L and 500R are arranged at the third standby position, and the fourth effect movable bodies 600L and 600R are arranged at the fourth effect position, and the first effect movable body 300 is in the second rotation state and the first projecting portion 303 is in the first storage state, and the second protrusion 304 is in the second protrusion state. At this time, the first effect movable body 300, the fourth effect movable bodies 600L, 600R, and the second projecting portion 304 are arranged on the front side of the effect display devices 5A, 5X, 5Y, and have a different shape from the first operation mode. It unites by contacting or approaching each other so as to constitute an object (see FIG. 15). That is, the CPU 120 for effect control can perform control to move the fourth effect movable bodies 600L and 600R to the first effect movable body 300 so as to be united after performing the first control.

  When the second effect movable body 400 and the third effect movable bodies 500L and 500R merge with the first effect movable body 300 in the first operation mode, or in the second operation mode, the fourth effect movable bodies 600L and 600R The second effect movable body 400, the third effect movable bodies 500L and 500R, and the fourth effect movable bodies 600L and 600R are disposed on the rear side of the rear transmission plate 261 when united with the one effect movable body 300. (See FIGS. 17 and 18).

  Therefore, when the first effect movable body 300, the second effect movable body 400, the third effect movable bodies 500L and 500R, and the fourth effect movable bodies 600L and 600R are united, the first effect movable body in the first control A sense of depth can be generated because the movement direction of 300, that is, different positions in the front-rear direction is located.

  Next, an example of operation control of the movable body unit by the effect control CPU 120 will be described with reference to FIGS. 13 to 19. FIG. 19 is a timing chart showing an example of the operation of each movable body and the effect LED in the movable body effect.

  As shown in FIGS. 13 and 16, in the operation standby mode of the movable body unit, the first effect movable body 300 has a part of the surface A side (front side) of the main body 302 in the first standby position. It is located on the front transmission plate 251 side, that is, on the front side with respect to the rear transmission plate 261 via the hole portion 270 of the rear transmission plate 261 (in particular, refer to the solid line in FIGS.

  In the movable body effect in the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 19, the effect control CPU 120 establishes the start condition of the movable body effect (for example, operation means (eg, effect button or stick during execution of the movable effect) When the operation of the operation means is detected during the operation reception period of the controller 31A etc.) or when the operation effective period ends and the execution timing of the movable body comes, etc.), the first effect movable body 300, the second effect The movable body 400 and the third effect movable bodies 500L and 500R are operated. The effect LED 9 performs a light emission effect in the first light emission mode.

  Specifically, the first effect movable body 300 moves obliquely downward from the first standby position to the first effect position by the first drive mechanism 310 (see arrow 1 in FIGS. 13 and 16). When the first effect movable body 300 is moved to the first effect position, as shown by phantom lines in FIGS. 13 and 16, a predetermined portion (front half) of the surface A side (front side) of the main body portion 302 The main body portion 302 is disposed on the front side with respect to the first standby position while being positioned closer to the front transmission plate 251 than the rear transmission plate 261 via the hole portion 270 of the rear transmission plate 261. In other words, the effect control CPU 120 causes the first effect movable body 300 in the first standby position to have a predetermined portion (front half) on the surface A side (front side) of the main body 302 via the hole portion 270 of the rear transmission plate 261 It is possible to execute the first control to move the front side until it is positioned closer to the front transmission plate 251 than the rear transmission plate 261. The second effect movable body 400 moves toward the second effect position, and the third effect movable bodies 500L and 500R move toward the third effect position.

  When the first effect movable body 300, the second effect movable body 400, and the third effect movable bodies 500L and 500R move to a predetermined position, the first effect position sensor, the second effect position sensor, and the third effect position sensor, which are not shown, The effect control CPU 120 detects that the first effect movable body 300 performs the first rotation based on the fact that the first effect position sensor, the second effect position sensor, and the third effect position sensor have detected each movable body. The turning shaft 305 is turned counterclockwise in a right side view so as to be in the state (first rotation, see arrow 2 in FIGS. 14 and 17). The effect control CPU 120 stops the first rotation of the first effect movable body 300 based on the fact that the first effect movable body 300 is detected by the first rotational position sensor. At this time, the front end sides of the second effect movable body 400 and the third effect movable bodies 500L and 500R are inclined forward (see the arrow 3 in FIGS. 14 and 17), and the first effect movable body 300 and the second effect movable body The third effect movable bodies 500L and 500R are united. Even when pivoting, the predetermined portion (front half) of the surface A side (front side) of the main body portion 302 is positioned closer to the front transmission plate 251 than the rear transmission plate 261 via the hole 270 of the rear transmission plate 261 There is.

  Next, the effect control CPU 120 causes the effect LED 9 to emit light in the second light emission mode, and the surface A of the main body 302 until the first protrusion 303 is detected by the first protrusion position sensor by the third drive mechanism 330. It protrudes outward from the second to the first projecting state. As described above, in the first rotation state of the first effect movable body 300, since the surface A of the main body portion 302 is obliquely upward on the front side, the first projection 303 is obliquely obliquely upward on the front It projects (see arrow 4 in FIGS. 14 and 17). That is, the first protrusion 303 moves in a direction intersecting the moving direction (obliquely downward direction) of the main body 302. In other words, after the effect control CPU 120 executes the first control, the first projecting portion 303, which is a part of a predetermined portion (front half) of the surface A side (front side) of the main body portion 302, in the first control. It is possible to execute a second control of moving in a direction (front upper direction) intersecting with the movement direction (front lower direction). By executing the first control and the second control, the movable body unit changes to the first operation mode.

  As described above, in the first effect movable body 300, the space portion S in which the first projecting portion 303 is formed between the front transmission plate 251 and the rear transmission plate 261 after the main body portion 302 moves obliquely downward and forwardly. At the same time, the moving operation of the first projecting portion 303 can be suitably shown without contacting the rear transmission plate 261 because it projects obliquely upward on the front side. Further, even when changing to the first operation mode or the second operation mode, the front transmission plate 251 is not contacted.

  Further, in the first operation mode in which the predetermined portion on the front side of the main body portion 302 is located in the space portion S on the front side of the rear transmission plate 261, the first projecting portion 303 is changed to the first projecting state As shown in FIG. 14, when viewed from the front side of the pachinko gaming machine 1, the first projecting portion 303 moves so as to spread around the main body portion 302, that is, protrudes, whereby a part of the main body portion 302 is expanded. Since the first effect movable body 300 appears to be expanded, it is possible to give the player an impact.

  In addition, even after the first projecting portion 303 changes to the first projecting state so as to spread around the main body portion 302, the first projecting portion 303 corresponds to the hole 270 when viewed from the front side of the pachinko gaming machine 1 The first projecting portion 303 does not inhibit the visual recognition of the gaming ball because it does not protrude to the outside of the region to be played, that is, it does not stick out to the gaming region 10 side of the gaming ball.

  In the first operation mode of the movable body unit, the first effect movable body 300, the second effect movable body 400, the third effect movable bodies 500L and 500R, and the first protrusion 303 form a predetermined shape. Make up the object. Specifically, the second effect movable body 400 is disposed below or in contact with or close to the first effect movable body 300, and the third effect movable bodies 500L and 500R are provided to the left and right of the first effect movable body 300. The second effect movable body 400 and the third effect movable bodies 500L and 500R serve as supporting means for the first effect movable body 300 by supporting them so that they abut or approach each other. The projecting operation of the first projecting portion 303 and the swaying of the first effect movable body 300 after the projecting operation are suppressed, and the posture can be stabilized.

  In addition, most of the second effect movable body 400 and the third effect movable bodies 500L and 500R are disposed closer to the game area 10 (rear side) than the rear transmission plate 261 when they are united with the first effect movable body 300. Because of this, it is possible to create a sense of depth in the combined structure.

  In addition, since the second light emission mode of the effect LED 9 is lower in luminance than the first light emission mode, the movable body unit is in the first operation mode (during second control), the light of the effect LED 9 It is possible to suppress the decrease in the visibility of the movable body.

  Next, the effect control CPU 120 moves the first projecting portion 303 until the first storage position sensor is detected based on the fact that the state of the first operation mode of the movable body unit has passed a predetermined time, and (1) The second effect movable body 400 is set to the second standby position, and the third effect movable bodies 500L and 500R are set to the third standby position, until the second standby position sensor and the third standby position sensor detect the first storage state. Move (see arrow 5 in FIGS. 15 and 18). Next, after the second effect movable body 400 and the third effect movable bodies 500L and 500R reach a position not interfering with the turning operation of the first effect movable body 300, the first effect movable body 300 is in the second rotation state and The turning shaft 305 is turned clockwise in the right side view (second rotation, see arrow 6 in FIG. 15 and FIG. 18) so that the effect LED 9 emits light in the third light emission mode. The effect control CPU 120 stops the second rotation of the first effect movable body 300 based on the fact that the first effect movable body 300 is detected by the second rotation position sensor.

  Then, the second protrusion 304 is made to protrude until it is detected by the second protrusion position sensor to make a second protrusion state (see the arrow 7 in FIGS. 15 and 18), and the fourth effect movable body 600L, 600R It is moved toward the fourth effect position until it is detected by the fourth effect position sensor (see arrow 7 in FIGS. 15 and 18). That is, after effect control CPU 120 executes the first control, second projection 304, which is part of a predetermined portion (front half) of surface A side (front side) of main body 302, in the first control It is possible to execute a second control of moving in a direction (front upper direction) intersecting with the movement direction (front lower direction). By executing the first control and the second control, the movable body unit changes to the second operation mode. At this time, the effect LED 9 emits light in the fourth light emission mode.

  Further, in the second operation mode in which the predetermined portion on the front side of the main body portion 302 is located in the space portion S on the front side of the rear transmission plate 261, the second projecting portion 304 is changed to the second projecting state When viewed from the front side of the pachinko gaming machine 1 as shown in FIG. 15, the second projecting portion 304 moves so as to spread around the main body portion 302, that is, protrudes, whereby a part of the main body portion 302 is expanded. Since the first effect movable body 300 appears to be expanded, it is possible to give the player an impact.

  Also, even after the second protrusion 304 changes to the second protrusion state so as to spread around the main body 302, the second protrusion 304 corresponds to the hole 270 when viewed from the front side of the pachinko gaming machine 1 The first projecting portion 303 does not inhibit visual recognition of the game ball because it does not protrude outside the area where the game ball is thrown out, that is, does not stick out to the flow-down area of the game ball.

  In the second operation mode of the movable body unit, the first effect movable body 300, the fourth effect movable bodies 600L and 600R, and the second projecting portion 304 form a structure having a shape different from the first operation mode. United into Specifically, the fourth effect movable bodies 600L and 600R are arranged so that the fourth effect movable bodies 600L and 600R abut or approach the left and right of the first effect movable body 300, whereby the first effect movable bodies Since it becomes a supporting means of 300 and supports each other, the projecting operation of the second projecting portion 304 and the swaying of the first effect movable body 300 after the projecting operation can be suppressed, and the posture can be stabilized.

  In addition, most of the fourth effect movable bodies 600L and 600R are united with the first effect movable body 300, since they are disposed closer to the game area 10 (rear side) than the rear transmitting plate 261. A sense of depth can be produced in the constructed structure (see FIG. 12).

  Further, since the fourth light emission mode of the effect LED 9 is lower in luminance than the first light emission mode and the third light emission mode, the movable body unit is used for effect when in the second operation mode (second control). The decrease in the visibility of each movable body can be suppressed by the light of the LED 9.

  When the rendering operation by each movable body is ended after the second operation mode of the movable body unit has elapsed for a predetermined time, the effect control CPU 120 moves the second projecting portion 304 until it is detected by the second storage position sensor. And the first effect movable body 300 as the first standby position, and the fourth effect movable bodies 600L and 600R as the fourth standby until the first standby position sensor and the fourth standby position sensor detect the second accommodation state. Move toward the position (storage operation). At this time, the effect LED 9 is caused to emit light in the fifth light emission mode. When the first effect movable body 300 moves to the first standby position and the fourth effect movable bodies 600L and 600R move to the fourth standby position, the movable body effect by the movable body unit is completed.

  The first to fifth light emission modes by the effect LED 9 may be different modes according to various operation modes of the movable body. The light emission mode includes, for example, a color to emit light, brightness, lighting or blinking, blinking speed, and the like.

  Next, the effect of the light emission effect by the effect LED 9 and the movable body LEDs 350A, 350B, 350CL, 350CR, 350DL, and 350DR will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 20: (A) is the schematic which looked the light emission aspect of LED for performance, and movable body LED from the side, (B) is the schematic which looked at the light emission aspect of LED for performance and movable body LED from upper direction. .

  As shown in FIGS. 20A and 20B, the effect LED 9 disposed around the first transmitting body 250 on the front surface of the opening and closing frame 50 emits light toward the first transmitting body 250. Since the outer peripheral surface of the first transmitting body 250 (first cylindrical body 252) is plated, light from the effect LED 9 is not reflected and enters the first transmitting body 250. ing. Furthermore, ambient light R other than the light from the production LED 9 (for example, light such as room light of a game arcade or light from an adjacent game machine) is also prevented from entering the first transparent body 250 as well. It has become.

  That is, the visibility of each movable body and the game area 10 can be prevented from being lowered, and the light emission effects of the movable body LEDs 350A, 350B, 350CL, 350CR, 350DL, 350DR can be prevented from being affected. In addition, by irradiating the periphery of the first transparent member 250, it can be made to stand out so as to surround the periphery of each movable body, and not only to the player who plays a game in the pachinko gaming machine 1 but also to the periphery You can appeal the production.

  Further, the movable body LEDs are a movable body LED 350A attached to the main body portion 302 facing the front side (player side), a movable body LED 350B attached to the second projecting portion 304, and movable body LEDs 350CL and 350CR facing the side. Each of the lights directed to the back side (the game area 10 side) comprises movable body LEDs 350DL and 350DR (light emitting means). The light to the front side by the movable body LEDs 350A and 350B is irradiated to the front side through the front transmission plate 251, the light to the back side by the movable body LEDs 350DL and 350DR is the game area 10 (the game ball flowing down the game area 10, It is designed to irradiate the winning opening and the induction passage. In addition, although the light to the side surface side of movable body LED350CL, 350CR is irradiated toward the 1st transmission body 250, plating processing is carried out to the internal peripheral surface of the 1st transmission body 250 (2nd cylindrical body 253). Since the light is applied, the light of the movable body LEDs 350CL and 350CR is reflected to the front side. That is, light can be collected to the front side to enhance the rendering effect, and the light emission rendering of the effect LED 9 can be prevented from being affected.

  Next, an example of the display device effect in the effect display devices 5X and 5Y will be described using FIG. FIG. 21A is a schematic view showing a standby state showing a normal time of the effect display device, FIG. 21B is a schematic view showing a first operation state of the effect display device, and FIG. 21C is a second view of the effect display device It is the schematic which shows an operation state.

  As shown in FIG. 21A, when the effect display device is in a normal state, the effect display devices 5X and 5Y are in a standby state in which they are disposed on the left and right sides of the effect display device 5A. In the standby state, the standby state is arranged in a slightly inclined state such that the display unit faces the center side.

  Rail members (guide means) (not shown) for guiding the movement of the effect display devices 5X and 5Y are respectively disposed above and below the effect display devices 5X and 5Y. The rail member includes a portion extending in the front-rear direction at a position on the front side of the effect display device 5A and a portion extending in the direction away from both ends of the front and rear portions, the effect display devices 5X and 5Y Is pivotally attached to the rail member about a pivot axis in the vertical direction. As described above, the effect display devices 5X and 5Y are provided so as to be movable and rotatable by the display device drive mechanism 900 including a rail member, a drive motor and the like (not shown).

  When the predetermined start condition of the display device effect is satisfied, the effect control CPU 120 moves the effect display devices 5X and 5Y closer to the position on the front side of the effect display device 5A, as shown in FIG. 21B. After that, the rear display plate 261 is moved from the position on the back side of the rear transmission plate 261 to the position on the front side through the hole 270, and the effect display devices 5X and 5Y are changed to the first operation state. That is, the effect control CPU 120 controls the effect display devices 5X and 5Y in a standby state at a position on the back side of the rear transmission plate 261, and a predetermined portion of the effect display devices 5X and 5Y through the hole 270 of the rear transmission plate 261. It is possible to execute a third control of moving the front side until it is positioned closer to the front transmission plate 251 than the rear transmission plate 261.

  The effect display devices 5X and 5Y move to a position closer to the front transmission plate 251 than the rear transmission plate 261 while the display unit is slightly inclined so that the display unit faces the center side, so the display unit can be easily viewed by the player The movement of the effect display devices 5X and 5Y can be suitably shown while maintaining the state.

  When the effect display devices 5X and 5Y move to the position on the front transmission plate 251 side of the rear transmission plate 261, as shown in FIG. 21C, the effect control CPU 120 separates the effect display devices 5X and 5Y from each other. While moving in the direction, the display units of the effect display devices 5X and 5Y are turned by the turning motor (not shown) so as to face the outside in the left-right direction. That is, after the effect control CPU 120 executes the third control, the effect control CPU 120 can execute the fourth control to move in the direction (left and right direction) intersecting with the moving direction (front and back direction) in the third control. By executing the third control and the fourth control, the effect display devices 5X and 5Y change to the second operation state.

  In addition, since the display units of the effect display devices 5X and 5Y face outward in the left-right direction in the second operation state, the display content of the display units can be viewed by anyone other than the player. When the rail members for guiding the movement of the effect display devices 5X and 5Y change from the standby state to the first operation state, and when the rail members change from the first operation state to the second operation state, the effect display device 5X, Since it functions as a contact preventing means for preventing the contact between 5Y and the rear transmission plate 261, damage to the effect display devices 5X and 5Y or the rear transmission plate 261 can be prevented.

  Next, the relationship between the rear transmission plate 261 and the first effect movable body 300 will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 22 is a schematic view showing a state in which the open / close frame is opened in the second operation mode of the movable body unit.

  As shown in FIG. 22, the hole portion 270 of the rear transmission plate 261 is formed larger than the first effect movable body 300. More specifically, when the opening and closing frame 50 is opened and closed, the hole 270 is also pivoted about the hinge portion (vertical rotation axis) of the opening and closing frame 50. The first effect movable body 300 in the second operation mode of the movable body unit is the movable body that protrudes most in each operation mode of the movable body unit, and the front portion of the first effect movable body 300 (the opening and closing frame 50 The portion disposed closer to the front transmission plate 251 than the hole 270 in the closed state is disposed in the rotation area Z of the hole 270.

  Therefore, even if the opening and closing frame 50 is opened and closed, the rear transmission plate 261 does not contact the first effect movable body 300. According to this, for example, when an operation error or the like occurs during operation of the movable body unit, that is, during execution of the first control or the second control, it is necessary to open the opening / closing frame 50 to perform maintenance. Even if the rear transmission plate 261 is in contact with the rear transmission plate 261, the opening and closing frame 50 can be opened, so that the rear transmission plate 261 and the first effect movable body 300 can be prevented from being damaged.

(Progress of the game and progress of the production etc.)
Next, the progress of the game in the pachinko gaming machine 1 will be schematically described. When the player rotates the hitting operation handle of the pachinko gaming machine 1, the gaming ball is fired toward the gaming area 10. Based on the fact that the gaming ball having flowed down the gaming area 10 has passed through the passing gate 41, the regular drawing game by the normal symbol display device 20 is started. After starting the fluctuation of the normal symbol, if the specified time which becomes the common drawing fluctuation time elapses, and the normal symbol other than the common drawing is stopped and displayed, the fluctuation display result of the normal symbol is "general drawing is off" Become. If a specific normal symbol (normal symbol per symbol) is stopped and displayed, the variation display result of the normal symbol becomes "per common symbol" and the open control is such that the movable plate of the normally variable winning ball device 6B is retracted from the game area 10. The normal opening control is performed to return to the closed position projecting to the game area 10 when the predetermined time has elapsed. It should be noted that when the common-play game can not be started, such as during the following release control in which another common-play game is already executed, the execution of the common-play game is suspended with an upper limit of four. The suspended regular game is started when it becomes possible to start.

  For example, based on the fact that the first start condition has been established, for example, due to the end of the previous special view game or the big hit gaming state after the first start condition is established after the game ball has won the first start winning opening etc. , A special drawing game by the first special symbol display 4A is started. In addition, after the second start condition is satisfied by the game ball winning the second start winning opening, etc., the second start condition is satisfied by, for example, the end of the previous special view game or the big hit gaming state. Based on the special symbol game by the second special symbol display 4B is started. In addition, when the special figure game can not be started (when the start condition is not satisfied), such as when another special figure game is already executed, or is controlled to the big hit gaming state described later, etc. The execution of the special drawing game is suspended with the upper limit. The reserved special drawing game is executed when the start condition is met.

  In the special drawing game, after the variable display of the special symbol is started, when the variable display time elapses, the finalized special symbol (special drawing display result) is derived and displayed. At this time, if a specific special symbol (big hit symbol, for example, a special figure such as "3", "7", etc.) is stopped and displayed, it becomes a "big hit" as a specific display result, and a special symbol different from the big hit symbol If a symbol, for example, a special figure such as "-" is displayed stopped, it becomes "off". After the variable display result in the special figure game becomes a "big hit", it is controlled to a big hit gaming state as a specific gaming state in which a round advantageous to the player (also referred to as a "round game") is executed a predetermined number of times. The jackpot gaming state is an advantageous state for the player. When the variable display result in the special view game is "loss", it is not controlled to the big hit gaming state.

  In the jackpot gaming state, a period until the predetermined upper limit time (for example, 29 seconds or 0.1 second) elapses or a predetermined number (for example, nine pieces) of winning balls of the special winning hole device of the special variable winning ball device 7 In the period until the occurrence of, the big winning opening will be in the open state. As a result, a round is performed in which the special variable winning prize ball device 7 is brought into the first state (opened state) which is advantageous for the player.

  The special winning opening door with the big winning opening opened during execution of the round receives the game ball falling on the surface of the game board 2, and then the special winning opening is closed, thereby the special variable winning winning ball device 7 is changed to a second state (closed state) disadvantageous to the player, and one round is ended. The round, which is the opening cycle of the special winning opening, is repeatedly executed until the number of times of execution reaches a predetermined upper limit (for example, “16”) (in the period other than the round game, the special winning opening is closed).

  In the effect symbol display areas 5L, 5C, 5R of the effect display device 5A, variable display of effect symbols is started in response to the start of the special drawing game. And in a period from the start of the fluctuation display of the production design to the end of the fluctuation display, the fluctuation display state of the production design may be in a predetermined reach state. With the reach state, when the effect pattern stopped and displayed in the display area of the effect display device 5A or the effect display devices 5X and 5Y constitutes a part of the big hit combination, about the effect pattern which is not displayed yet It is a display state in which fluctuation continues, or a display state in which all or part of the rendering symbols fluctuate in synchronization while constituting all or part of the big hit combination.

  In the embodiment, the reach effect is performed in response to the reach mode being displayed during the variable display. As reach effects, normal reach, super reach A (which develops from normal reach), and super reach B (which develops from normal reach) are prepared. In the embodiment, the jackpot expectation degree is high in the order of super reach B> super reach A> normal reach (normal reach not developing into super reach). The jackpot expectation rate is, for example, a ratio at which the variable display result of the special figure game is a "big hit", and here, it is also a ratio at which the display result of the variable display of the rendering symbol is a "big hit".

  When the variable display result of the special drawing game is a "big hit", it is a predetermined big hit combination as a display result of the variable display of the effect design in the display area of the effect display device 5A or the effect display devices 5X and 5Y. The determined effect pattern is derived and displayed (the display result of the variable display of the effect pattern is "big hit"). As an example, "left", "middle", "right" effect symbol display areas 5L, 5C, 5R the same effect pattern on a predetermined effective line (for example, when the probability variation big hit "7", non-probability variation big hit At the same time, "6" etc.) are aligned and stopped. In the embodiment, as shown in FIG. 24 (B) described later, in “non-probability change”, non-probability change big hit where the promotion effect (failure) is executed during the big hit and non-probability change big hit where the promotion effect itself is not performed There are two types of "probable variation", there are two types: one is a definite variation big hit in which a promotion effect (success) is executed during a big hit, and the other is a probability variation big hit in which the promotion effect itself is not performed. The promotion effect is a probability change promotion effect, which is executed in a predetermined round (for example, seven rounds) during the big hit, and is an effect that indicates that the promotion to the big hit is successful or failed. When the jackpot type is "non-probability change (promotional production failure)", the same rendering pattern "6" is aligned and stopped, and probability change promotion production (failure) is executed in the 7 rounds during the big hit. When the jackpot type is "probable change (promotional production success)", the same rendering pattern "6" is aligned and stopped, and a probability change promotion production (successful) is executed in the 7 rounds of the big hit. The probability change promotion effect may be executed for rounds other than seven rounds or for a plurality of rounds, or may be performed for fanfare effect, ending effect, or the like. Further, the promotion effect may be a round promotion effect or the like informing the continuation of the round.

  When the variable display result is “loss”, the fixed display pattern of the non-reach combination is stopped and displayed as the display result of the variable display of the display pattern without the variable display mode of the display pattern being the reach mode. Or, after the variable display mode of the effect symbol becomes the reach mode, the final effect symbol of the predetermined reach combination (reach loss combination) which is not the big hit combination may be stopped and displayed as the display result of the variable display of the effect symbol.

  As a fixed special symbol in the special drawing game, a fixed effect symbol that is a predetermined normal big hit combination (also referred to as "non-probable variation big hit combination") is displayed in a stop among a plurality of big hit combinations When it becomes "", it is controlled to the big hit game state, and time shortening control (time saving control) is performed after the end. By performing the time saving control, the variation display time (special figure variation time) of the special symbol in the special figure game is shortened as compared with the normal state. In the time-saving control, so-called electric chew support is implemented in which the winning frequency of the normal symbol is increased and the winning frequency of the normally variable winning ball device 6B is increased. For this reason, the state in which time reduction control is performed (time reduction state) is a gaming state that is more advantageous to the player than the normal state. In the time-saving control, either of the special figure game being executed a predetermined number of times (for example, 100 times) after the end of the big hit gaming state and the variation display result being a "big hit", either condition is established first When it is done, you should finish.

  As a fixed special symbol in a special drawing game, a fixed effect symbol which is a predetermined probability variation big hit combination (also referred to as a “positive variation big hit combination”) among a plurality of big hit combinations is stopped and displayed, and a variation display result is When it becomes, it is controlled to the jackpot gaming state, and after that end, probability fluctuation control (probability change control) is performed together with time saving control. By performing this probability change control, the probability that the variable display result will be a "big hit" in the special drawing game of each time is improved to be higher than that in the normal state. For this reason, the state in which the probability change control is performed (the probability change state) is an advantageous gaming state for the player compared to the normal state. The probability change control is a predetermined number of times after the end of the big hit gaming state (for example, 100 same as the number of time reductions) when the condition that the variation display result is “big hit” after the end of the big hit gaming state and the big hit gaming state is controlled again When a special figure game is played, the decision of "with a definite change fall" is made to end the definite change control in the definite change fall lottery which is executed each time the special view game is started after the end of the big hit gaming state When and so on, it should end.

  When time saving control is performed, control to shorten the fluctuation time of the normal symbol (general drawing fluctuation time) in the regular drawing game than in the normal state, or the fluctuation display result of the normal symbol in each regular drawing game Control to improve the probability of becoming a “hit” compared to that in the normal state, and the movement control time for performing movement control of the movable plate in the normally variable winning ball device 6B based on the fluctuation display result being “per common” The game ball is likely to pass (enter) the second start winning opening, such as control to be longer than in the state, and control to increase the number of movements more than in the normal state, and the second start condition may be established. The control (electric chew support control, high open control) that is advantageous to the player is performed by As a result, the second start condition for executing the special view game using the second special view can be easily established, and the special view game can be executed frequently, so that the variation display result is "big hit" next. The time to become is reduced.

  The normal state is a gaming state other than the advantageous state for the player, such as an advantageous state such as a big hit gaming state, a short time state, or a probability change state, for example, the variable display result in the common drawing game The pachinko gaming machine 1 is in an initial setting state (such as when a system reset is performed, for example, the predetermined recovery process after turning on the power). Is the same control as when

  The short time state is also referred to as "high base", and the non-short time state gaming state is also referred to as "low base" and "non-short time state", and the probability change state is also referred to as "high probability". A gaming state that is not a definite change state is also referred to as "low certainty" or "non-deterministic change". The gaming state when in a definite variation state and a short time state is also referred to as "high probability high base". The game state when it is in a definite change state but not in a short time state is also referred to as "high probability low base". The gaming state when it is not a definite change state but is in a short time state is also referred to as "low probability high base". The normal state is also referred to as "low probability low base".

  Next, main operations of the pachinko gaming machine 1 according to the present embodiment will be described with reference to a flowchart and the like. In each operation (each process), a process that does not appear in the flowchart may be performed.

(Main operation of main board 11)
On the main board 11, the CPU 103 executes a game control timer interrupt process. The game control timer interrupt process is performed each time a timer interrupt is generated by an interrupt request signal from CTC (counter / timer circuit) supplied every predetermined period (for example, 2 milliseconds), that is, at an interval of supply of the interrupt request signal. It is executed every predetermined time (2 ms). In the game control timer interrupt process, the CPU 103 executes a switch process, a game random number update process, a special symbol process, a normal symbol process process, a command control process and the like, and a game control timer interrupt process is repeatedly executed for each timer interrupt. Control of the game is realized by being done.

  In the switch process, each switch is determined by determining whether a detection signal is input from various switches such as the gate switch 21, the first start port switch 22A, the second start port switch 22B, and the count switch 23 via the switch circuit 110. It is determined for each switch whether or not it has been turned on (that is, whether or not the game ball has entered or passed). The result of this determination is used in special symbol process processing and normal symbol process processing.

  The game random number updating process is a process for updating at least a part of the plurality of types of game random numbers used on the main substrate 11 side by software. The special symbol process process is a process for realizing the suspension and execution of the special figure game, the big hit gaming state and the like based on the determination result in the switch process and the like. The normal symbol process processing realizes the suspension and execution of the common-play game, the open state of the normally variable winning ball device 6B (second starting winning opening) at the time of the common drawing, and the like based on the determination result in the switch processing etc. It is processing to do. The command control process is a process of actually transmitting the effect control command transmitted and set by the special symbol process process or the like from the main substrate 11 to the effect control substrate 12.

(Effect control command set to send in special symbol process processing)
Next, the effect control command transmitted and set in the special symbol process process and transmitted from the main board 11 to the effect control board 12 in the command control process will be described. FIG. 24A shows an example of main effect control commands. In addition, the following "(H)" shows that it is a hexadecimal number.

  Variation pattern specification command 81XX (H), display result specification command 8CXX (H), symbol determination specification command 8F00 (H), hit start specification command A0XX (H), hit end specification command A3XX (H), first start winning specification A command B100 (H), a second start prize designation command B200 (H), and a special winning opening prize designation command B300 (H) are prepared in advance. "XX" is EXT data. A numerical value corresponding to the variable display result is set to "XX" of the display result specification command 8CXX (H) (for example, as shown in FIG. 24 (B), "00" for "missing", "non-deterministic variation" If it is a big hit "01", "non-probable big hit (promotional production failure)" if "02", "probably big hit" if "03", "pronely big hit (promotion successful)" if "04" etc.

(Special symbol process processing)
FIG. 25 is a flowchart showing an example of special symbol process processing. The flags, counters, and timers described below are provided in the RAM 102. In the special symbol process process, the CPU 103 executes a start winning determination process (S101). For example, the CPU 103 determines whether the first start port switch 22A is on (is determined to be on by the switch process. The same applies to other switches). If it is on, it is determined whether the number of first special view reservations has reached the upper limit number (for example, 4). If the upper limit number has not been reached, it is determined that the first start winning has occurred, the random number circuit Of the random number values for gaming updated in the game random number updating process or 104, the random number value MR1 for determining the special image display result (variable display result for the special game), the random value MR2 for determining the big hit type, and the fluctuation pattern determination The random number value MR3 for the H.264 is extracted, and the extracted numerical value is held in the first special image storage section of the RAM 102 as the first storage data. It is determined whether the second start port switch 22B is on. If it is on, it is determined whether the second special view reserve storage number has reached the upper limit number (for example, 4). If the upper limit number has not been reached, it is determined that the second start winning combination has occurred. Similarly, the random number values MR1 to MR3 are extracted, and the extracted numerical values are stored in the second special image storage unit of the RAM 102 as second storage data. The first hold data and the second hold data are held in the start winning order. The number of first special view pending storages and the number of the second special view pending storages may be specified by the number of the first pending data and the second pending data, or a counter that counts each number of storages (the same applies hereinafter). In the start winning determination process, when there is a first start winning, the transmission setting of the first start winning designation command, the first special view pending storage number addition designation command is performed, and there is a second start winning. The transmission setting of the second start winning combination designation command and the second special view hold storage number addition designation command is performed.

  After executing S101, the CPU 103 selects and executes any one of the processes of S110 to S117 in accordance with the value of the special drawing process flag. The following time saving flag is a flag which is turned on in the time saving state, and the probability changing flag is a flag which is turned on in the probability changing state.

  The special symbol normal processing of S110 is executed when the value of the special drawing process flag is "0". For example, when the second special drawing reserve storage number is not “0”, the CPU 103 performs processing for executing the second special drawing game, updates the value of the special processing process flag to “1”, and executes this processing. finish. When the number of second special figure holding memories is "0" and the number of first special drawing holding memories is not "0", processing for executing the first special figure game is performed, and the value of the special drawing process flag is "1". And update the process to end. When both are “0”, this processing ends.

  In the processing for executing the second special view game, the second special reservation hold of the oldest second hold data of the second hold data (random number values MR1 to MR3) held in the second special view hold storage unit The data is read from the storage unit to a predetermined buffer of the RAM 102. The read second hold data is deleted from the second special view hold storage unit. Then, the second special data to be executed this time based on the random number value MR1 and the big hit determination table (stored in the ROM 101, hereinafter the same for the determination table) among the second reserved data read out to the predetermined buffer Determine the variable display result of the game ("big hit" or "lost"). The determination ratio of “big hit” is higher in the case of the positive change state (when the positive change flag is on) than in the non-positive change state (when the positive change flag is off). When the "big hit" is determined, the big hit type ("probable variation" or "non-probable variation") is determined based on the random number value MR2 and the big hit type determination table. In the embodiment, one of “non-deterministic change”, “non-deterministic change (promotional production failure)”, “probable change”, and “probability change (promotional production success)” is determined. The determination result and information indicating that the second special view game is to be executed is held in the RAM 102 and referred to as appropriate (the same applies to other determinations and the like).

  Also in the process for executing the first special view game, the same process as the process for executing the second special view game is performed, the first reserved data is read to a predetermined buffer, and the first special view game is variable. Perform determination of display result (including determination of big hit type).

  The variation pattern setting process of S111 is executed when the value of the special drawing process flag is "1". For example, the CPU 103 determines (selects) the variation pattern, and sets the start of execution of the first special view game or the second special view game. The fluctuation pattern is to designate a variable display execution time (special figure fluctuation time) and a pattern of variable display of the effect pattern.

  In the embodiment, as shown in FIG. 26, there are PA1-1, PA2-1, PA3-2 to PA3-4 as loss-time variation patterns. There are B3-2 to PB3-4 as big hit time fluctuation patterns. PA1-1 and PA2-1 designate non-reach. PA2-1 is a pattern for time shortening (with shortening) in which the special figure fluctuation time (the execution period of the special figure game) is shorter than that of the normal (PA1-1). PA3-2 and PB3-2 designate execution of normal reach (without development to super reach), PA3-3 and PB3-3 designate execution of super reach A (which develops from normal reach), and PA3 -4, PB3-4 designate the execution of super reach B (which develops from normal reach).

  When the current variable display result is "big hit", the CPU 103 performs PB3-2 to PB3-2 based on the random number value MR3 of the first and second holding data read out to the predetermined buffer and the big hit fluctuation pattern determination table. One of PB3-4 is determined as the variation pattern of this time. When the variable display result is "losing" and in the non-time-short state (when the time saving flag is off), PA1-1, PA3 based on the random number value MR3 and the variation pattern determination table for the first loss. Any one of-2 to PA3-4 is determined as the current fluctuation pattern. When the variable display result is "losing" and the time saving state (when the time saving flag is on), PA2-1, PA3- based on the random number value MR3 and the variation pattern determination table for the second loss. One of 2-PA3-4 is determined as a variation pattern of this time. At the time of losing, the determination ratio of the variation pattern is higher in the order of PA1-1 or PA2-1> PA3-2> PA3-3> PA3-4. At the time of big hit, it is high in the order of PB3-4> PB3-3> PB3-2. Therefore, the jackpot expectation is high in the order of Super Reach B> Super Reach A> Normal Reach.

  After the change pattern is determined, for example, supply of a drive signal to the first special symbol display 4A or the second special symbol display 4B is started, and execution of the first special view game or the second special view game is started. A display result specification command, a subtraction specification command of the first or second special view reserve memory number, a fluctuation pattern specification command, which specifies the above determination result or the current gaming state (which can be specified by a probability change flag or time reduction flag). This transmission setting is performed, the value of the special drawing process flag is set to “2”, and this processing ends.

  The special symbol variation process of S112 is executed when the value of the special drawing process flag is "2". For example, the CPU 103 has reached the special figure fluctuation time corresponding to the present fluctuation pattern (the time may be measured by a timer or the like, and the same may be applied to other elapsed times) since the special figure game started. If it has not reached, drive signals for executing the first special view game or the second special view game the first special symbol display 4A or the second special symbol After the processing of supplying the display 4B to change the special symbol is performed, the present processing is ended. On the other hand, when the special figure fluctuation time is reached, a predetermined drive signal is supplied to the first special symbol display 4A or the second special symbol display 4B, and the symbol of the variable display result of this time (“when missing” -"" 7 "for" probable variation big hit "," 3 "etc. for" non-probable variation big hit ", stop display (derivative display) and perform transmission setting of design confirmation specified command, and special figure process flag Update the value of to "3". The execution of the special figure game is realized by repeatedly executing S112 each time the timer interrupt occurs.

  The special symbol stopping process of S113 is executed when the value of the special drawing process flag is "3". For example, when the current variable display result is "big hit", the CPU 103 resets the time saving flag and the probability changing flag to off. Thereafter, transmission setting of the hit start designation command is performed, the special drawing process flag is updated to "4", and this processing is ended. In the case of "time out" in the "shortage" state, it is determined whether or not a predetermined number of variable displays have been performed in the short time state (for example, it may be counted by a counter), and a predetermined number of variable displays are performed. If it is, the time saving flag is reset to OFF, the value of the special drawing process flag is set to “0”, and the processing is ended. Even when the variable display of the predetermined number of times has not been executed due to "lost" and not in the short time state, the value of the special drawing process flag is set to "0" or the like, and this processing is ended.

  The big hit opening pre-processing of S114 is executed when the value of the special processing process flag is "4". For example, it is determined whether the elapsed time since transmission setting of the hit start designation command has reached a preset fanfare wait time (waiting time from the start of the fanfare in the big hit gaming state to the end). If it does not reach, the big hit opening pretreatment ends. When the fanfare wait time is reached, processing for opening the big winning opening (supply of a solenoid drive signal) and the like are performed to start the round game, and the special processing process flag is updated to "5". By repeatedly performing S114 each time a timer interrupt occurs, standby until the start timing of the round game (standby until the end of the fan fare) and opening of the special winning opening are realized.

  The big hit open processing of S115 is executed when the value of the special processing process flag is "5". For example, the CPU 103 determines whether it is time to finish the round game. The number of times the count switch 23 is on (the number of gaming balls that have entered the special winning opening) becomes a predetermined value (for example, "9") (may be counted by a counter or the like) or after starting the round game ( When it is the timing to end the round game when the elapsed time of the big winning a prize opening reaches the upper limit period of the round game (for example, 29 seconds), return the big winning a prize opening to a closing state A process to end the round game (process to turn off the solenoid 82) is performed. At this time, when the finished round game is the last round game (for example, the 15th round) (perform counting with a counter, etc.), set to send a hit end designation command, and the special figure process flag Update the value to "7" and end this processing. If it is not the last round game, the special processing process flag is updated to "6", and this processing is ended. If it is not time to end the round game, the present processing is ended as it is (the main winning opening may be kept open). By repeating S115 each time a timer interrupt occurs, the opening state of the special winning opening is maintained until the timing of returning the special winning opening to the closing state, and finally the special winning opening is closed.

  The big hit opening post process of S116 is executed when the value of the special processing process flag is "6". For example, the CPU 103 determines whether the elapsed time after the end of the round game (after closing the big winning opening) has reached a predetermined closing time (interval time of the round game), and has not reached it. , The closed state is maintained, and the process ends. When the predetermined closing time is reached, processing such as opening the special winning opening is executed to start the round game, the value of the special processing process flag is updated to "5", and the present processing is ended.

  Each round game is realized by repeatedly executing S115 and S116 each time a timer interrupt occurs after the special winning opening is opened in S114.

  The big hit end processing of S117 is executed when the value of the special processing process flag is "7". For example, the elapsed time from the end of the last round game (after closing the big winning opening) is a predetermined ending waiting time (waiting time from the start of ending in the big hit gaming state to the end) It is determined whether it has reached, and if it has not, the present process is ended. When the ending waiting time is reached, since the ending is finished, the time-shortening flag and the probability changing flag are turned on when the big hit type of this time is "probability change", and the time saving flag is turned on when "non-probability change", the probability change Leave the flag off. Then, the value of the special drawing process flag is updated to “0”, and the present process is ended.

(Operation of effect control board 12)
FIG. 27A is a flowchart showing effect control main processing executed by the effect control CPU 120 of the effect control board 12. When the power is turned on, the effect control CPU 120 starts execution of the main processing. In the main processing, initialization processing is performed to clear the RAM area, set various initial values, and initialize the timer for determining the start interval (for example, 2 ms) of effect control (S51).

  After S51, the movable body initialization processing at power-on is performed (S51A). In the movable body initialization process (S51A) at power on shown in FIG. 27B, the effect control CPU 120 resets the first movable body dead end flag to OFF (S551), and the second movable body dead end flag Is turned off (S552). The first movable body dead end flag is a flag indicating whether or not the rendering operation of the first movable body (for example, the first effect movable body 300 or the like) is prohibited. The second movable body dead end flag is a flag indicating whether or not the rendering operation of the second movable body (for example, the external movable body 810 or the like) is prohibited. Since the first movable body dead end flag and the second movable body dead end flag are not backed up when the pachinko gaming machine 1 is powered off, S551 and S552 may not be provided intentionally. After S552, the CPU 120 for production control controls the movable body based on the fact that the power is supplied (first production movable body 300, second production movable body 400, third production movable body 500L, 500R, fourth production movable body 600L, The initial operation of the external movable body 810) is executed (S553). The initial operation includes a short initial operation and a long initial operation. The short initial operation includes a first movable body (a first effect movable body 300, a second effect movable body 400, a third effect movable body 500L, 500R, a fourth effect movable body 600L, 600R) and a second movable body (external movable) This is an initial operation of returning the body 810) to the original position (initial position, standby position, etc.). The long initial operation includes a first movable body (a first effect movable body 300, a second effect movable body 400, a third effect movable body 500L, 500R, a fourth effect movable body 600L, 600R) and a second movable body (external movable) Operation confirmation (for example, in the case of the first effect movable body 300) between the first transparent body 250 and the second transparent body 260 after the body 810) is returned to the original position (initial position, standby position, etc.) Checking the movement to move back to the home position after moving to the advanced position (the advanced position shown in FIGS. 17 and 18 or the first position P1 and the second position P2 of the first modification shown in FIG. If it is the movable body 810, the initial operation of confirming the operation of returning to the origin position shown in FIG. 23B after moving from the origin position shown in FIG. 23B to the advanced position shown in FIG. It is In the pachinko gaming machine 1 of the present embodiment, for example, a long initial operation is set to be performed. The short initial operation may be set to be performed.

  In the movable body initialization process (S51A) when the power is turned on, the effect control CPU 120 performs the initials of the movable body even if the open / close frame 50 is opened immediately before the initial operation of the movable body or during the initial operation. It is executed without stopping the operation. Specifically, even if the effect control CPU 120 detects that the open / close frame 50 is open during or immediately before the execution of the process of S51A, even if a door opening detection switch (for example, a door sensor or the like) (not shown) is turned on , So that the initial operation of the movable body (the first effect movable body 300, the second effect movable body 400, the third effect movable bodies 500L and 500R, and the fourth effect movable bodies 600L and 600R) is performed without being stopped. Each drive mechanism of the movable body (the first to fourth drive mechanisms 310, 320, 330, 340 for the first effect movable body 300, the fifth drive mechanism 410 for the second effect movable body 400, the third effect movable body 500L Control the seventh drive mechanism 610L, 610R for the sixth drive mechanism 510L, 510R and the fourth effect movable body 600L, 600R for That (S553).

  According to this, even if the opening and closing frame 50 is opened during the initial operation of the movable body when the power is turned on, the initial operation of the movable body is not stopped, so that the opening and closing frame 50 is not interrupted when the power is turned on. The movement of the movable body can be confirmed. For example, it is possible to smoothly check the operation of the movable body at the time of factory inspection before shipment of the gaming machine. Further, the check of the open / close operation of the open / close frame 50 and the initial operation of the movable body when the power is turned on can be performed simultaneously, and the inspection efficiency can be improved. As described above, since the movement of the movable body is confirmed, the movable body can be suitably controlled. Note that the effect control CPU 120 controls the eighth drive mechanism 850 (see FIG. 2) so that the operation of the external movable body 810 is stopped or returned to the origin position in S553 when the open / close frame 50 is opened. You may do it. In this case, when the opening and closing frame 50 is opened, the external movable body 810 located at the advanced position returns to the origin position, etc., so the external movable body 810 located at the advanced position is the pachinko It is possible to prevent parts, players, and the like from coming into contact with each other.

  In S553, the initial position of the first movable body (the first effect movable body 300, the second effect movable body 400, the third effect movable bodies 500L and 500R, and the fourth effect movable bodies 600L and 600R) is restored to the original position. The number of errors that could not be made can be cumulatively counted, and the number of errors that can not be returned to the home position in the initial operation of the second movable body (external movable body 810) can also be cumulatively counted. In addition, about the 1st movable body, the number of times of errors of each can be counted for each of the first effect movable body 300, the second effect movable body 400, the third effect movable bodies 500L and 500R, and the fourth effect movable bodies 600L and 600R. However, the number of errors of only some of the set movable bodies (for example, only the first effect movable body 300) may be cumulatively countable.

  After S553, the effect control CPU 120 initializes the first movable body (the first effect movable body 300, the second effect movable body 400, the third effect movable bodies 500L and 500R, and the fourth effect movable bodies 600L and 600R). It is determined whether the number of operation errors has reached "3" (S554). If the number of errors of the first movable body has reached "3" (S554: Yes), the first movable body dead end flag is set to the on state (S555). If the number of errors of the first movable body has not reached “3” (S 554; No), or after S 555, the effect control CPU 120 performs an initial operation of the second movable body (external movable body 810) It is determined whether or not the number of errors of has reached "10" (S556). If the number of errors of the second movable body has reached "10" (S556: Yes), the second movable body dead end flag is set to the on state (S557). If the number of errors of the second movable body has not reached "10" (S556: No), or after S557, this processing ends.

  In S554, it is determined whether or not the number of errors of the first movable body has reached "3", but if the number of errors of the first movable body is "1", that is, the first movable When it is not possible to return to the origin by the initial operation of the body, the first movable body may be made to be an immediate dead end (operation inhibition). In S556, it is determined whether or not the number of errors of the second movable body has reached "10", but if the number of errors of the second movable body is "1", that is, the second movable When it is not possible to return to the origin by the initial operation of the body, the second movable body may be made to be an immediate dead end (operation inhibition).

  Referring back to FIG. 27A, after S51A, the process proceeds to loop processing for monitoring a timer interrupt flag (S52). When a timer interrupt occurs, a timer interrupt flag is set in timer interrupt processing. In the main processing, if the timer interrupt flag is set (on), the flag is cleared (S53), and the following processing is executed.

  The effect control CPU 120 analyzes the received effect control command, and performs processing such as setting a flag corresponding to the received effect control command (command analysis processing: S54). In this command analysis process, the effect control CPU 120 confirms the content of the command transmitted from the main substrate 11 stored in the reception command buffer. The effect control command transmitted from the game control microcomputer 100 is received in an interrupt process based on the effect control INT signal, and is stored in the buffer area formed in the RAM. In the command analysis process, it is analyzed which command (see FIG. 3) is the effect control command stored in the buffer area, and setting and control corresponding to the analysis result are performed.

  Next, the effect control CPU 120 performs effect control process processing (S55). In the effect control process, among the processes corresponding to the control state, the process corresponding to the current control state (effect control process flag) is selected to execute display and operation control of the effect display devices 5A, 5X, 5Y. . Next, the effect control CPU 120 executes effect random number updating processing for updating the count value of a counter for generating an effect random number such as a jackpot symbol determination random number (S56).

  Next, the effect control CPU 120 performs a second movable body monitoring process to monitor whether the second movable body (external movable body 810) is at the origin position (S56A). In the second movable body monitoring process (S56A) shown in FIG. 28, the effect control CPU 120 determines whether the second movable body dead end flag is in the on state (S401). If the second movable body dead end flag is on (S401; Yes), this process ends. In the present embodiment, when the second movable body dead end flag is in the on state, the alternative rendering pattern shown in FIG. 35 described later is set (S505A), and the movable body rendering pattern is not set. Although the rendering operation by the two movable bodies (the external movable body 810) is completely prohibited, a part of the rendering operation may be permitted. That is, part of the rendering operation may be limited. For example, at least a part of the range, content, and mode of the rendering operation may be limited. That is, “restricting the rendering operation of the second movable body” includes completely prohibiting the rendering operation of the second movable body (the external movable body 810) and limiting a part of the rendering operation.

  On the other hand, if the second movable body dead end flag is not on (S401; No), the effect control CPU 120 determines whether or not the movable body effect pattern is set (S402). That is, when the movable body rendering pattern including the operation of the second movable body (the external movable body 810) is set in S505 shown in FIG. 35 described later (S402; Yes), this processing ends. .

  On the other hand, when the movable body effect pattern is not set (S402; No), the effect control CPU 120 determines whether or not the special period (for example, 10 seconds) is being counted (S402A). If the special period (for example, 10 seconds) is not being counted (S402A; No), it is determined whether the second movable body origin position error state flag is on (S402B).

  On the other hand, if the second movable body origin position error state flag is not on (S402B; No), the effect control CPU 120 determines whether the monitoring timer value of the second movable body (the external movable body 810) has reached 1 minute It is determined whether or not it is (S403). The monitoring timer value of the second movable body (external movable body 810) is clocked from the time when the initial operation processing (S553) of the second movable body (external movable body 810) at the time of powering on the pachinko gaming machine 1 is completed. Is started. In addition, the monitoring timer value of the second movable body (the external movable body 810) starts counting again from the time when the rendering operation of the second movable body (the external movable body 810) is finished. That is, during the rendering operation of the second movable body (the external movable body 810), the monitoring timer value of the second movable body (the external movable body 810) is not counted. If the monitoring timer value of the second movable body (the external movable body 810) has not reached one minute (S403; No), this processing is ended. On the other hand, if the monitoring timer value of the second movable body (external movable body 810) has reached 1 minute (S403; Yes), the effect control CPU 120 causes the second movable body (external movable body 810) to be at the origin position. It is judged whether or not it exists (S404). For example, the effect control CPU 120 can determine whether the external movable body 810 is at the origin position based on the detection signal from the position detector 860 (see FIG. 2). As shown in FIG. 29C, the timing at which the monitoring timer value of the second movable body (the external movable body 810) reaches 1 minute and it is determined in S404 whether the external movable body 810 is at the origin position is , Corresponding to the monitoring timing. The monitoring timer value is reset to “0”, and starts counting the next one minute. If the second movable body (the external movable body 810) is at the origin position (S404; Yes), this process ends. On the other hand, if the second movable body (the external movable body 810) is not at the origin position (S404; No), processing for returning the second movable body (the external movable body 810) to the origin position is executed (S405). As shown in FIG. 29C, within the special period, the process of returning the second movable body (external movable body 810) to the origin position is executed. After S405, the effect control CPU 120 determines whether the second movable body (the external movable body 810) is at the origin position (S406). If the second movable body (the external movable body 810) is at the origin position (S406; Yes), this process ends. On the other hand, if the second movable body (external movable body 810) is not at the origin position (S406; No), the second error count value indicating that the second movable body (external movable body 810) is not at the origin position The error count value is incremented by "1" (S407). When the second movable body (the external movable body 810) does not return to the home position in the return processing in the special period shown in FIG. 29C, "1" is added to the number of errors. Thus, it is monitored whether or not the second movable body (external movable body 810) is at the origin position every special period (every one minute).

  In S403, it is determined whether or not the monitoring timer value of the second movable body (the external movable body 810) has reached one minute, but the present invention is not limited to this. For example, when the monitoring timer value of the second movable body (the external movable body 810) reaches one minute, the second arrival flag may be set to the on state, and it may be determined whether the second arrival flag is on. . In this case, it is possible to prevent the monitoring timer from counting for more than one minute.

  After S407, the effect control CPU 120 determines whether a special period arrival flag indicating that a special period (for example, 10 seconds) has elapsed from the monitoring timing (for example, when one minute is reached) is in the on state (S408) ). If the special period arrival flag is not on (S408; No), counting of the special period (for example, 10 seconds) is started (S410). If the special period (for example, 10 seconds) is being counted (S402A; Yes), or after S410, it is determined whether the special period (for example, 10 seconds) has been reached (S411). If the special period (for example, 10 seconds) has not been reached (S411; No), this processing ends. On the other hand, if the special period (for example, 10 seconds) has been reached (S411; Yes), the special period arrival flag is set to the on state (S412).

  It should be noted that the process of returning to the origin of the second movable body (external movable body 810) is continuously (or repeatedly) performed in the period of S410 to S412 in FIG. 28, that is, in the special period (for example, 10 seconds). Good. Also, when the second movable body (external movable body 810) is returned to the origin position in the period of S410 to S412 of FIG. 28, that is, the special period (for example, 10 seconds), the error notification (S414) is not performed You may In this case, the count of the special period (for example, 10 seconds) is also reset to "0".

  After S412 or after S419 described later, the second movable body origin position error status flag is set in the ON state, which indicates that the second movable body (external movable body 810) is not at the origin position and is in an error state. S413) As shown in FIG. 29C, for example, an error notification of 30 seconds is executed (S414). As this error notification, for example, the lighting of an error lamp provided in the gaming machine frame 3 (for example, red lighting), and the second movable body (external movable body 810) at, for example, a corner of the display screen of the effect display device 5A. The error display of is executed. In addition, only one of the lighting of the error lamp or the error display may be executed, and instead of at least one of the lighting of the error lamp and the error display, or together with that, an error notification sound is outputted from the speakers 8L, 8R. You may do it. When the second movable body (external movable body 810) returns to the origin position during error notification (S414), the error notification (S414) may be canceled on the way.

  If the special period arrival flag is on (S408; Yes), if the second movable body origin position error status flag is on (S402B; Yes), or after S414, the effect control CPU 120 starts error notification It is determined whether one minute has passed since (S415). If one minute has not elapsed from the start of the error notification (S415: No), this processing is ended. On the other hand, if one minute has elapsed from the start of the error notification (S 415; Yes), that is, as shown in FIG. 29C, the second movable body origin position error status flag is turned off after an error state of 60 seconds, for example. The state is reset (S416), and the second movable body (external movable body 810) is returned to the origin position (S417). As shown in FIG. 29C, after the error state (60 seconds), return processing to the origin position of the second movable body (external movable body 810) is performed. After S417, the effect control CPU 120 determines whether the second movable body (the external movable body 810) is at the origin position (S418). If the second movable body (the external movable body 810) is not at the home position (S418; No), the second error count value is incremented by "1" (S419), and the process proceeds to S413. As shown in FIG. 29C, for example, “1” is added to the number of errors when the second movable body (external movable body 810) does not return to the origin position in the return processing after an error state (60 seconds). Be done. On the other hand, when the second movable body (the external movable body 810) is at the origin position (S418; Yes), the special period arrival flag is reset to the off state (S420), and this processing is ended.

  Referring back to FIG. 27A, after S56A, the second movable body dead end processing is executed (S56B). In the second movable body dead end processing (S56B) shown in FIG. 29A, the effect control CPU 120 determines whether the second error count value is “10” (S431). If the second error count value is not "10" (S431: No), this process ends. On the other hand, if the second error count value is "10" (S431; Yes), the second movable body dead end flag is set to ON (S432), and the second error count value is reset to "0" S433), this processing ends.

  Referring back to FIG. 27A, after S56B, a first movable body monitoring process is performed to monitor whether or not the first movable body (for example, the first effect movable body 300 etc.) is at the origin position (S56C). In the first movable body monitoring process (S56C) shown in FIG. 30, the effect control CPU 120 determines whether the first movable body dead end flag is in the on state (S461). If the first movable body dead end flag is on (S461; Yes), this process ends. In the present embodiment, when the first movable body dead end flag is in the on state, the alternative rendering pattern shown in FIG. 35 described later is set (S505A), and the movable body rendering pattern is not set. Although the rendering operation by one movable body (for example, the first effect movable body 300 or the like) is completely prohibited, a part of the rendering operation may be permitted. That is, part of the rendering operation may be limited. For example, at least a part of the range, content, and mode of the rendering operation may be limited. Further, the rendering operation may be limited for each type of the effect movable body. That is, for "restricting the rendering operation of the first movable body", completely prohibiting the rendering operation of the first movable body (for example, the first rendering movable body 300 and the like) and restricting a part of the rendering operation Is included.

  On the other hand, if the first movable body dead end flag is not on (S461; No), the effect control CPU 120 determines whether or not the movable body effect pattern is set (S462). That is, when the movable body effect pattern including the operation of the first movable body (for example, the first effect movable body 300 and the like) is set in S505 shown in FIG. 35 described later (S462; Yes), the main End the process.

  On the other hand, when the movable body effect pattern is not set (S 462; No), the effect control CPU 120 determines whether or not counting in a specific period (for example, 10 seconds) is in progress (S 462 A). If the specific period (for example, 10 seconds) is not being counted (S462A; No), it is determined whether the first movable body origin position error state flag is on (S462B).

  On the other hand, when the first movable body origin position error state flag is not on (S462B; No), the effect control CPU 120 determines that the monitoring timer value of the first movable body (for example, the first effect movable body 300) is 10 minutes. Is determined (S463). The monitoring timer value of the first movable body (for example, the first effect movable body 300) is an initial operation process (for example, the first effect movable body 300) of the pachinko gaming machine 1 when the power is turned on. The clocking starts from the end of S553). In addition, the monitoring timer value of the first movable body (for example, the first effect movable body 300 or the like) starts counting again from the time when the rendering operation of the first movable body (for example, the first effect movable body 300 or the like) is finished. . That is, during the rendering operation of the first movable body (for example, the first effect movable body 300 or the like), the monitoring timer value of the first movable body (for example, the first effect movable body 300 or the like) is not counted. If the monitoring timer value of the first movable body (for example, the first effect movable body 300 or the like) has not reached 10 minutes (S463; No), this processing ends. On the other hand, if the monitoring timer value of the first movable body (for example, the first effect movable body 300 or the like) has reached 10 minutes (S463; Yes), the CPU 120 for effect control controls the first movable body (for example, the first effect) It is determined whether the movable body 300 or the like is at the origin position (S464). For example, the effect control CPU 120 can determine whether or not the first movable body (for example, the first effect movable body 300 or the like) is at the origin position based on a detection signal from a position detection sensor (not shown). Note that the monitoring timer value is reset to "0" and starts counting the next 10 minutes. If the first movable body (for example, the first effect movable body 300 or the like) is at the origin position (S464; Yes), this process ends. On the other hand, if the first movable body (for example, the first effect movable body 300 or the like) is not at the origin position (S464; No), the processing for returning the first movable body (for example, the first effect movable body 300 or the like) to the origin position Execute (S465). After S465, the effect control CPU 120 determines whether the first movable body (for example, the first effect movable body 300 or the like) is at the origin position (S466). If the first movable body (for example, the first effect movable body 300 or the like) is at the origin position (S466; Yes), this process ends. On the other hand, if the first movable body (for example, the first effect movable body 300 or the like) is not at the origin position (S466; No), the first movable body (for example, the first effect movable body 300 or the like) is not at the origin position. The first error count value, which is the count value of errors, is incremented by "1" (S467). Thus, whether or not the first movable body (for example, the first effect movable body 300 or the like) is at the origin position is monitored at predetermined intervals (every 10 minutes).

  Although it is determined in S463 whether the monitoring timer value of the first movable body (for example, the first effect movable body 300 or the like) has reached 10 minutes, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, when the monitoring timer value of the first movable body (for example, the first effect movable body 300 or the like) reaches 10 minutes, the first arrival flag is set to the on state, and it is determined whether the first arrival flag is on. You may In this case, it is possible to prevent the monitoring timer from counting for more than 10 minutes.

  After S467, the CPU for effect control 120 determines whether or not a specific period arrival flag indicating that a specific period (for example, 10 seconds) has elapsed from the monitoring timing (for example, 10 minutes) (S468) ). If the specific period arrival flag is not on (S468; No), counting of a specific period (for example, 10 seconds) is started (S470). If the specific period (for example, 10 seconds) is being counted (S462A; Yes), or after S470, it is determined whether the specific period (for example, 10 seconds) has been reached (S471). If the specific period (for example, 10 seconds) has not been reached (S 471: No), the present process ends. On the other hand, if the specific period (for example, 10 seconds) has been reached (S471; Yes), the specific period arrival flag is set to the on state (S472).

  In addition, the origin return process of the first movable body (for example, the first effect movable body 300 or the like) is continuously (or repeatedly) executed in a period of S470 to S472 of FIG. 30, that is, a specific period (for example, 10 seconds). You may do so. Further, when the first movable body (for example, the first effect movable body 300 or the like) is returned to the origin position in a period of S470 to S472 of FIG. 30, that is, a specific period (for example, 10 seconds), an error notification (S474) May not be performed. In this case, the count of the specific period (for example, 10 seconds) is also reset to “0”.

  After S472 or after S479 described later, the first movable body origin position error state flag is turned on to indicate that the first movable body (for example, the first effect movable body 300 or the like) is not at the origin position. Is set (S473), and an error notification of, for example, 30 seconds is executed (S474). As this error notification, for example, lighting of an error lamp (for example, red lighting) provided in the gaming machine frame 3 and a first movable body (for example, first effect movable at a corner of the display screen of the effect display device 5A) The error display of the body 300 etc. is executed. In addition, only one of the lighting of the error lamp or the error display may be executed, and instead of at least one of the lighting of the error lamp and the error display, or together with that, an error notification sound is outputted from the speakers 8L, 8R. You may do it. Note that when the first movable body (for example, the first effect movable body 300 or the like) returns to the origin position during error notification (S474), the error notification (S474) may be canceled midway.

  If the specific period arrival flag is on (S468; Yes), if the first movable body origin position error status flag is on (S462B; Yes), or after S474, the effect control CPU 120 starts error notification It is determined whether one minute has passed since (S475). In S475, it is determined whether or not one minute has passed since the start of the error notification, but the present invention is not limited to this. For example, the timing may be shorter than the timing at the second movable body (for example, the external movable body 810, etc.) shown in S415 (one minute has passed since the error notification start). Since the first movable body (for example, the first effect movable body 300 and the like) is not touched by the player, it is possible to improve or change the state of the first movable body (for example, the first effect movable body 300 and the like) Since it can not be expected, it can be made the necessary minimum time (timing). If one minute has not elapsed from the start of the error notification (S475; No), this processing is ended. On the other hand, if one minute has elapsed from the start of the error notification (S475; Yes), the first movable body origin position error state flag is reset to the off state (S476), and the first movable body (for example, the first effect movable body 300) Etc. is returned to the home position (S477). After S477, the effect control CPU 120 determines whether the first movable body (for example, the first effect movable body 300 or the like) is at the origin position (S478). If the first movable body (for example, the first effect movable body 300 or the like) is not at the origin position (S 478; No), “1” is incremented to the first error count value (S 479), and the process proceeds to S 473. . On the other hand, when the first movable body (for example, the first effect movable body 300 or the like) is at the origin position (S 478; Yes), the specific period arrival flag is reset to the off state (S 480), and this processing is ended.

  Referring back to FIG. 27A, after S56C, the first movable body dead end processing is executed (S56D). In the first movable body dead end process (S56D) shown in FIG. 29B, the effect control CPU 120 determines whether the first error count value is “3” (S481). If the first error count value is not "3" (S481; No), this process ends. On the other hand, when the first error count value is "3" (S481; Yes), the first movable body dead end flag is set to the on state (S482), and the first error count value is reset to "0" S483), this processing ends.

  Next, if an abnormality or an error has occurred, the effect control CPU 120 executes notification control processing for performing notification such as an abnormality (S57), and then proceeds to S52. As shown in FIG. 31, in the notification control process, for example, it is determined whether a door opening detection switch (not shown) capable of detecting the opening of the opening and closing frame 50 is on (S61). For example, a door opening detection switch (not shown) for detecting the opening of the opening and closing frame 50 is connected to the main substrate 11. The door opening detection switch is turned on when the opening and closing frame 50 is opened and turned off when the opening and closing frame 50 is closed. The door opening detection switch may be turned on when the opening and closing frame 50 is closed and may be turned off when the opening and closing frame is opened. In this case, in S61, it may be determined whether the door open detection switch is off. The main board 11 transmits to the effect control board 12 a command during door opening indicating that the opening and closing frame 50 has been opened based on the detection of the opening of the opening and closing frame 50 by the door opening detection switch. Therefore, when the door open indication command from the main substrate 11 is received, it can be determined that the door open detection switch is on.

  If the door open detection switch is on (S61; Yes), at least one of the first movable body (for example, the first effect movable body 300 and the like) and the second movable body (the external movable body 810) is in operation or not It is determined (S62). For example, it is determined that the first effect movable body 300 is not in operation if the first effect movable body 300 is at the origin position by a position detection sensor (not shown), and is determined to be in operation if the first effect movable body 300 is not at the origin position. Note that the determination method during operation is not limited to this. For example, if the first effect movable body 300 is at the advanced position (note that if there is a plurality of advanced positions, each advanced position), it may be determined that the operation is in progress. In addition, if at least one of the first drive mechanism 310, the second drive mechanism 320, the third drive mechanism 330, and the fourth drive mechanism 340 (see FIG. 2) is in drive operation, it is determined that it is in operation. May be If the second movable body (the external movable body 810) is at the origin position, it is determined that the second movable body (external movable body 810) is not in operation by the position detector 860 (see FIG. 2). If at least one of the first effect movable body 300 and the external movable body 810 is in operation (S62; Yes), door open notification (first open notification) at the time of movable body operation is executed (S63). On the other hand, when neither of the first effect movable body 300 and the external movable body 810 is in operation (S62; No), a door open notification (second open notification) at the normal time is executed (S65). The door open notification at the time of movable body operation is different from the door open notification at the normal time. For example, the door open notification at the time of movable body operation has a mode in which the notification sound is larger than the door open notification at the normal time, or the notification image and the notification light emission stand out. In addition, the door opening notification at the time of movable body operation displays a notification image indicating that the movable body is in operation (for example, a notification image of "the movable body is in operation!" Or "attention to the movable body in operation!" The content may be output by voice, etc., and the door open notification in the normal state may not have that effect. Further, the door opening notification at the time of the movable body operation may be a notification according to each type of the first movable body (for example, the first effect movable body 300 or the like) and the second movable body (the external movable body 810). For example, if the first movable body (for example, the first effect movable body 300 or the like) is in operation, notification that the first movable body (for example, the first effect movable body 300 or the like) is in operation is If the body (external movable body 810) is in operation, it is notified that the second movable body (external movable body 810) is in operation, and the first movable body (for example, the first effect movable body 300 etc.) and the first 2 If the movable body (external movable body 810) is in operation, a notification that the first movable body (for example, the first effect movable body 300 etc.) and the second movable body (external movable body 810) are in operation do it.

  Thus, if it is the first open notification, it can be informed that the open / close frame 50 is open during operation of at least one of the first effect movable body 300 and the external movable body 810, and the first effect movable body 300 in operation It is possible to cope with the opening of the opening / closing frame 50 while considering the external movable body 810. Moreover, if it is the second release notification, it can be informed that the opening and closing frame 50 is open when the first effect movable body 300 and the external movable body 810 are not operating, and the first effect movable body 300 and the external movable body It is possible to cope with the opening of the opening and closing frame 50 without worrying about 810. For this reason, at the time of the open notification of the opening and closing frame 50, it is possible to execute an appropriate treatment according to the presence or absence of the operation of at least one of the first effect movable body 300 and the external movable body 810. It should be noted that the door open notification at the time of movable body operation and the door open notification at the normal time may be the same notification without being distinguished.

  After S63, the operations of the first effect movable body 300 and the external movable body 810 are limited (S64). For example, the operation of the first effect movable body 300 is stopped, and the operation of the external movable body 810 is stopped to return to the home position. In S64, the CPU 120 for effect control controls the first effect movable body 300 during operation (for example, the first effect movable body 300 is at the advanced position shown in FIG. 17 and FIG. 18 or the first of the first modification shown in FIG. The open / close frame 50 is opened during execution of the advancing operation toward the 2 position P2, or during execution of the backward operation from the second position P2 to the first position P1 or the like shown in FIG. When the detection switch (not shown) is turned on, processing for stopping the operation of the first effect movable body 300 is executed. For this reason, when the opening and closing frame 50 is opened, the malfunction (for example, the first effect movable body) caused by the first effect movable body 300 performing the above-described operation (for example, the advancing operation or the backward operation of the first effect movable body 300). It is possible to prevent pinching by 300, damage to the first effect movable body 300 itself and its related parts or parts (such as the first effect movable body 300 and the second transparent body 260) on the door member side. Thereby, the malfunction by the 1st presentation movable body 300 when the opening-and-closing frame 50 is open | released can be prevented. When the open / close frame 50 is opened during operation of the external movable body 810 (a door open detection switch (not shown) is turned on), the external movable body 810 is returned to the origin position. For this reason, when the opening and closing frame 50 is opened, the external movable body 810 moves forward and stays in the advanced state, thereby contacting the adjacent pachinko gaming machine 1 and its related parts, the player, etc. Can be prevented. Thereby, the malfunction by the external movable body 810 when the opening-closing frame 50 is open | released can be prevented. Although S64 is executed after S63 as shown in FIG. 31, S63 may be executed after S64. In this case, the movable body operation restriction can be performed promptly.

  In addition, it is possible to stop the operation of the movable body based on the establishment of the specific condition including at least the opening and closing of the opening and closing frame 50, and the movable body based on the reception of the movable body operation command (establishment of the predetermined condition). Operation control (for example, control of the advancing operation of the first effect movable body 300 toward the advancing position shown in FIG. 17 and FIG. 18 or the second position P2 of the first modification shown in FIG. 38 described later, FIG. Operation control of the movable body based on the establishment of a specific condition including at least the opening of the opening / closing frame 50 (eg, control of the retracting operation from the origin position and the second position P2 to the first position P1 etc.) The operation control of the movable body can be executed with priority given to the control to stop the one-effect movable body 300 and the like. Therefore, the movable body operates when the opening and closing frame 50 is opened, the movable body operates after the opening and closing frame 50 is opened, and the opening and closing frame 50 is opened after the operation of the movable body. Malfunction (for example, pinching by the first effect movable body 300, the first effect movable body 300 itself and its related parts or parts on the door member side (the first effect movable body 300 and the second transparent body 260 or the like) and the external movable body 810 moves forward or stays in the advanced state, thereby preventing contact with the next pachinko gaming machine 1 and its related parts, a player, etc.). Thereby, the malfunction by the movable body when a door member is open | released can be prevented. Although the specific condition at least includes that the opening and closing frame 50 is opened (detection of the opening of the opening and closing frame 50, occurrence of an opening error of the opening and closing frame 50, etc.), it is limited to this Absent. The specific conditions include, for example, at least one of a vibration motor abnormality error, an item first start error, a magnet error (magnetic detection error), a vibration detection abnormality, an incorrect prize error, a RAM clear, opening of the opening and closing frame 50, etc. It may be one. Moreover, as predetermined conditions, it is not limited to reception of a movable body operation | movement command. For example, it may be a condition that triggers operation such as execution setting of a movable object effect, execution timing of a movable object effect, reception of an initial operation command, reception of a customer waiting demonstration specification command, and the like.

  In S64, when the opening / closing frame 50 is opened during operation of at least one of the first effect movable body 300 and the external movable body 810, the effect control CPU 120 performs the first effect movable body, as shown in FIG. If the external movable body 810 is in operation, it is returned to the origin position, but the operation is not limited to this. For example, in S64, the effect control CPU 120 stops the operation of the external movable body 810 and returns the first effect movable body 300 and the like to the origin position, and continues the operation of the first effect movable body 300 and the like. You may In addition, when at least one of the first effect movable body 300, the second effect movable body 400, the third effect movable bodies 500L and 500R, and the fourth effect movable bodies 600L and 600R is opened, the open / close frame 50 is opened. The operation of all the movable bodies may be stopped, or the operation of only the movable bodies in operation may be stopped.

  Further, when the open / close frame 50 is opened, the effect control CPU 120 stops the operation of the target movable body at S64 and continues the operation of the non-target movable body (specific movable body) (or the origin position etc. May be returned to For example, the target movable body is the first effect movable body 300 advancing between the first transparent body 250 and the second transparent body 260, and the non-target movable body (specific movable body) is the first transparent body 250 and the first transparent body 250. The second effect movable body 400, the third effect movable bodies 500L and 500R, and the fourth effect movable bodies 600L and 600R may be configured so as not to advance between the second transmitting body 260 and the second transmitting body 260. According to this configuration, when the opening and closing frame 50 is opened during the operation of the movable body, the operation of the target movable body (the first effect movable body 300) is stopped, but the specific movable body (the second effect movable body 400, Even if the opening and closing frame 50 is opened during the operation of the third effect movable bodies 500L and 500R and the fourth effect movable bodies 600L and 600R), the specific movable body is a member of the first transmitting body 250 and the second transmitting body 260. Since the movable body does not perform the operation located between the specified movable bodies, the specific movable body can be continued without stopping its operation (or can be returned to the origin position or the like). Thereby, control according to the movable body can be performed. In other words, control can be performed according to the type of movable body (which is the movable body or the specific movable body).

  Further, the effect control CPU 120 stops the operation of the first effect movable body 300 in S64, but the content of the operation may be limited. For example, the second operation (projecting) of the first effect movable body 300 may be prohibited (stopped), but the first operation (non-projecting) may be continued (executed). In addition, the range of motion, speed, acceleration, and the like may be a limited range, different speeds (slow speeds), and different accelerations (small accelerations), etc., as compared to the motion when the open / close frame 50 is not opened.

  In addition, you may make it perform control which returns the 1st presentation movable body 300 to an origin position as an example which restrict | limits the operation | movement of the 1st presentation movable body 300 (S64). According to this, for example, when performing the first control or the second control in the movable body effect, the operation abnormality of the first effect movable body 300 occurs and the first effect movable body 300 is the first effect Even when it is necessary to open the opening and closing frame 50 to perform maintenance due to, for example, jamming at a position or ball clogging in the game area 10, when opening the opening and closing frame 50. Since the first effect movable body 300 retracts toward a position (e.g., a standby position or the like) where the first effect movable body 300 does not contact the rear transparent plate 261, breakage of the rear transparent plate 261 and the first effect movable body 300 can be prevented.

  On the other hand, after S65, the movement of the movable body is prohibited (S66). For example, in S66, the effect control CPU 120 prohibits the operation of the first effect movable body 300 (for example, the first operation ACT1 and the second operation ACT2), and prohibits the advancing operation of the external movable body 810. Although S66 is executed after S65 as shown in FIG. 31, S65 may be executed after S66. In this case, the movable body operation prohibition can be performed promptly.

  In S66, for example, the effect control CPU 120 may prohibit the operation of all the movable bodies (all of the target movable body and the non-target movable body). In S66, only the target movable body (at least the external movable body 810) is inhibited from moving, and the non-target movable body (the first effect movable body 300, the second effect movable body 400, the third effect movable bodies 500L, 500R, and the fourth The operation of the four-effect movable bodies 600L, 600R, etc.) may be permitted without being prohibited. That is, even when the open / close frame 50 is open, the non-target movable body may be operated in the operation period. Further, in S66, the content of the operation may be limited. For example, although the second operation (projection) of the first effect movable body 300 is prohibited (stopped), the first operation (non-projection) may be continued (executed).

  In addition, for effect control CPU 120, for example, with regard to the operation inhibition (S66) of the movable body, when the open / close frame 50 is closed, the operation inhibition is immediately released to enable the operation of the movable body. After the predetermined period has elapsed since the closing of the opening / closing frame 50, or when the variable display in progress is finished, the above-mentioned prohibition may be released to enable the operation of the movable body.

  On the other hand, when the door opening detection switch is not turned on (S61; No), the present process ends after S64 or after S66.

<Information Control Process of Another Example 1 (S57)>
As shown in FIG. 32A, in the notification control process (S57) of another example 1, the initial operation (for example, the short initial operation) of the movable body is performed (S60A) when the opening and closing frame 50 is closed. It is also good. In the notification control process (S57) of another example 1 shown in FIG. 32A, for example, the effect control CPU 120 determines whether the door closing flag is on (S60). The door closing flag is a flag indicating that the opening and closing frame 50 which has been in the open state is in the closed state. If the door closing flag is not on (S60; No), it is determined whether the door open detection switch is on (S61). The processes in S61 to S66 are the same as those in FIG. 31 described above, and thus the description thereof is omitted here. After S64 or after S66, a door open flag indicating that the open / close frame 50 has been opened is set to ON (S67). That is, since the door opening detection switch is turned on by the opening and closing frame 50 being opened (S61; Yes), the door opening flag is set to be on (S67).

  On the other hand, if the door open detection switch is not on (S61; No), that is, if the open / close frame 50 is in the closed state, it is determined whether the door open flag is on (S61A). If the door open flag is on (S61A; Yes), the door open flag is reset to off (S61B), and the door close flag is set to on (S61C). That is, a door closing flag indicating that the open / close frame 50 in the open state is in the closed state is set on.

  On the other hand, if the door closing flag is on (S60; Yes), an initial operation (for example, a short initial operation) of the movable body is executed when the opening and closing frame 50 is closed (S60A). At S60A, the effect control CPU 120 executes the short initial operation of the first effect movable body 300 when the open / close frame 50 is closed. After S60A, the door closing flag is reset to OFF (S60B). On the other hand, when the door open flag is not on (S61A; No), the present process ends after S61C, after S67, or after S60B. Thereby, when the opening and closing frame 50 is closed, the first effect movable body 300 can be reliably returned to the home position. Therefore, the first effect movable body 300 can be operated from the origin position, and the first effect movable body 300 can be suitably controlled.

  When the first effect movable body 300 is at the origin position when the opening / closing frame 50 is closed, the effect control CPU 120 may not execute the short initial operation. As described above, it is not necessary to execute the unnecessary short initial operation for the first effect movable body 300 already at the origin position. Therefore, the short initial operation can be performed only for the first effect movable body 300 which is not at the origin position, and the appropriate initial operation can be performed.

  The initial operation (S60A) of the movable body may be, for example, a long initial operation when the opening and closing frame 50 is closed.

  In S60A, the effect control CPU 120 is not limited to the first effect movable body 300, but all movable bodies (the first effect movable body 300, the second effect movable body 400, the third effect movable body 500L, 500R, the first The initial operation (which may be either a short initial operation or a long initial operation) may be performed on the four effect movable bodies 600L and 600R and the external movable body 810). Furthermore, in S60A, of all the movable bodies, the initial operation may not be performed for the movable bodies at the origin position. In addition, the effect control CPU 120, at S60A, the projecting part (the first effect movable body 300) advancing between the first transmitting body 250 and the second transmitting body 260, the first transmitting body 250, and the second transmitting body Although none of the non-projecting roles (the second effect movable body 400, the third effect movable bodies 500L, 500R, and the fourth effect movable bodies 600L, 600R) that do not advance between the two and the 260 are returned to the origin position, One of the projecting part and the non-projecting part may be returned to the origin position. In addition, in S60A, the effect control CPU 120 controls all movable bodies (the first effect movable body 300, the second effect movable body 400, the third effect movable bodies 500L and 500R, the fourth effect movable bodies 600L and 600R, and the external movable The initial operation of the body 810) may be performed in a predetermined order (the order set for the initial operation, the same order as the movable object effect, etc.). By performing the initial operation in a predetermined order, an appropriate initial operation can be performed. In addition, priority may be set to the initial operation of each movable body. As the order of priority of the initial operation, for example, the projecting part (the first effect movable body 300, the external movable body 810) is not the projecting object (the second effect movable body 400, the third effect movable body 500L, 500R, the fourth It may be executed with priority over the effect movable bodies 600L and 600R), or may be in the reverse order of priority.

<Information Control Process of Another Example 2 (S57)>
In addition, as shown to FIG. 32 (B), in the alerting | reporting control process (S57) of another example 2, the 1st presentation movable body 300 by which the operation | movement was stopped by the opening and closing frame 50 being open is detected by a detection means. It may be made to operate according to a result (S64A, S64B). The detection means may be at least one of a door open detection switch (not shown), a push button 31B, and an operation button (not shown) dedicated to persons concerned who can operate the game arcade person other than the player. . By setting the operation button (not shown) dedicated to the person concerned to, for example, a button exposed when the opening and closing frame 50 is opened, only the game arcade person can be operated. Here, it is assumed that the detection means is the operation button dedicated to the person concerned. Since S61 to S66 in the notification control process of another example 2 are the same as FIG. 31 described above, the description thereof is omitted here. After S64, for example, the effect control CPU 120 determines the presence or absence of the operation of the operation button dedicated to the person in charge (S64A). When there is an operation of the operation button dedicated to the person concerned (S64A; Yes), the effect control CPU 120 operates the first effect movable body 300 whose operation has been stopped by opening the open / close frame 50 (S64B). The first effect movable body 300 may operate during a period in which the operation button dedicated to the person in charge is operated, or the first effect movable body 300 operates if the operation button dedicated to the person in charge is operated once. You may do it. On the other hand, if there is no operation of the operation button dedicated to the person concerned (S64A; No), this processing ends as it is. Thereby, after confirming safety, the first effect movable body 300 is operated (for example, the stopped first effect movable body 300 is returned to the origin position, or operated to the first position (for example, stored)) , Can be moved (for example, advanced) in the second position. The movable body is not limited to the first effect movable body 300, and all movable bodies (the first effect movable body 300, the second effect movable) whose operation is stopped by the opening and closing frame 50 being opened. The body 400, the third effect movable bodies 500L and 500R, and the fourth effect movable bodies 600L and 600R) may be operated individually or all of them may be operated at the same time. In S64A, although the presence or absence of the operation of the operation button dedicated to the person concerned is determined, the presence or absence of the action of the person concerned with the game place may be determined with an infrared sensor or the like which detects the action of the person concerned with the game place. When the operation of the game arcade person is detected, the opening and closing frame 50 may be opened to operate the first effect movable body 300 whose operation is stopped (S64B). With regard to the external movable body 810, when the open / close frame 50 is opened, in the case of stopping the operation, the external movable body 810 in the advanced state is returned or operated according to the detection result of the detection means (S64A , S64B).

<Information Control Process of Another Example 3 (S57)>
In addition, as shown to FIG. 33 (A), in alerting | reporting control processing (S57) of another example 3, operation | movement restriction | limiting (S65C) of a movable body and a movable body are based on whether it is a fluctuation pattern which has movable object production. The operation may be prohibited (65D). In the notification control process of another example 3, as shown in FIG. 33A, for example, the effect control CPU 120 determines whether a door open detection switch (not shown) is on (S61). If the door open detection switch is on (S61; Yes), a door open notification (second open notification) is executed (S65). After S65, it is determined whether or not it is a fluctuation pattern having movable object effect (S65A). In S505 of the movable body effect setting process shown in FIG. 35A described later, when the movable body effect pattern is set, it is determined that the fluctuation pattern has the movable body effect (S65A; Yes). If not, it is determined that the variation pattern does not have movable object effects (S65A; No). If it is a fluctuation pattern having a movable body effect (S65A; Yes), it is determined whether or not at least one of the first effect movable body 300 and the external movable body 810 is in operation (S65B). For example, if the first effect movable body 300 is at the origin position, it is determined that it is not in operation, and if it is not at the origin position, it is determined that it is in operation. If the first effect movable body 300 is in operation (S65B; Yes), the operation of the first effect movable body 300 is limited (S65C). For example, the operation of the first effect movable body 300 is stopped. In addition, if the external movable body 810 is at the origin position, it is determined that it is not in operation, and if it is not at the origin position, it is determined that it is in operation. If the external movable body 810 is in operation (S65B; Yes), the operation of the external movable body 810 is restricted (S65C). For example, the external movable body 810 is returned to the origin position.

  In S65C, the effect control CPU 120 stops the operation of the first effect movable body 300 when the open / close frame 50 is opened during the operation of the first effect movable body 300, but is not limited thereto. For example, in S65C, the effect control CPU 120 selects one of the first effect movable body 300, the second effect movable body 400, the third effect movable bodies 500L and 500R, and the fourth effect movable bodies 600L and 600R, and the external movable body 810. When the opening and closing frame 50 is opened while at least one is in operation, the operation of all the movable bodies may be stopped or only the movable body in operation may be stopped.

  In S65C, the CPU for effect control 120 may stop the operation of the target movable body and continue the operation (or return to the origin position or the like) of the non-target movable body (specific movable body). . For example, the target movable body is the first effect movable body 300 advancing between the external movable body 810 and the first transparent body 250 and the second transparent body 260, and the non-target movable body (specific movable body) is The second effect movable body 400, the third effect movable body 500L, 500R, and the fourth effect movable body 600L, 600R may be configured so as not to advance between the first transmitting body 250 and the second transmitting body 260.

  In S65C, the CPU for effect control 120 stops the operation of the first effect movable body 300, but the content of the operation may be limited. For example, the second operation (projecting) of the first effect movable body 300 may be prohibited (stopped), but the first operation (non-projecting) may be continued (executed). In addition, the range of motion, speed, acceleration, and the like may be a limited range, different speeds (slow speeds), and different accelerations (small accelerations), etc., as compared to the motion when the open / close frame 50 is not opened.

  On the other hand, if the first effect movable body 300 is not in operation (S65B; No), the operation of the movable body is prohibited (S65D). For example, in S65D, the effect control CPU 120 prohibits the operation of the first effect movable body 300 (for example, the first operation ACT1 and the second operation ACT2) and the advancing operation of the external movable body 810. That is, from the start of the variable display for the fluctuation pattern having the movable body effect (start of the fluctuation display of the effect pattern) to the start (execution) of the movable body operation by the movable body effect, from the end of the movable body operation The operation of the first effect movable body 300 and the external movable body 810 is prohibited also in a period until the variable display is a finalized display (a finalized display symbol (combination of three effect symbols) is displayed in a stopped state). According to this, when the open / close frame 50 is opened in the period from the start of variable display (start of variable display) to the start of movable body operation, it is possible to originally not execute movable body operation. In addition, it is possible that the movable body operation is not performed even in a period from the end of the movable body operation to the symbol determination. It is possible to prevent, in advance, movement of an unexpected movable body (especially, a character due to biasing) caused by output of a movable body movement command due to command garbled or noise. On the other hand, when the door open flag is not on (S61; No), when it is not a variation pattern having movable object effect (S65A; No), this process is ended after S65C or after S65D.

  In S65D, for example, the effect control CPU 120 may prohibit the operation of all the movable bodies (all of the target movable body and the non-target movable body). Further, at S65D, only the target movable body (the first effect movable body 300, the external movable body 810) is inhibited from moving, and the non-target movable body (the second effect movable body 400, the third effect movable body 500L, 500R and the fourth The movement of the effect movable bodies 600L, 600R, etc.) may be permitted without being prohibited. That is, even when the open / close frame 50 is open, the non-target movable body may be operated in the operation period. Further, in S65D, the content of the operation may be limited. For example, although the second operation (projection) of the first effect movable body 300 is prohibited (stopped), the first operation (non-projection) may be continued (executed).

  In addition, for effect control CPU 120, for example, with regard to the operation inhibition (S65D) of the movable body, when the open / close frame 50 is closed, the operation inhibition is immediately released to enable the operation of the movable body. After the predetermined period has elapsed since the closing of the opening / closing frame 50, or when the variable display in progress is finished, the above-mentioned prohibition may be released to enable the operation of the movable body.

  According to the notification control process of the other example 3 (see FIG. 33A) described above, since S65A is provided, the movable body by the opening and closing frame 50 only in the case of the variation pattern including movable body operation rendition (S65A; The operation stop determination process (S65C) or the operation prohibition determination process (S65D) can be performed, and the stop determination process can not be performed in the other variation patterns, so that the processing efficiency can be improved.

<Information Control Process of Another Example 4 (S57)>
As shown in FIG. 33B, in the notification control process (S57) of another example 4, the operation restriction (S65C) of the movable body at the time of the customer waiting demonstration based on the customer waiting demo specification command and the operation of the movable body It may be prohibited (65D). The processes in S61, S65C, and S65D are the same as those in FIG. 33A described above, and thus the description thereof is omitted here. In the notification control process of another example 4, the CPU for effect control 120 determines whether or not the customer waiting demo specification command from the main board 11 is received after S65 (S65E). The customer wait demo specification command is a demonstration display (demo screen display) by displaying a predetermined effect image on the screen of the effect display devices 5A, 5X, 5Y, for example, and a demonstration effect for operating the movable body together with the demo screen display. It is an effect control command for designating etc. If the customer waiting demo specification command has been received (S65E; Yes), is at least one of the first effect movable body 300 and the external movable body 810 in demonstration operation (in movable body demonstration operation) in the customer waiting demonstration effect? It is determined whether or not (S65F). For example, if the first effect movable body 300 is at the origin position, it is determined that it is not in operation, and if it is not at the origin position, it is determined that it is in operation. If the first effect movable body 300 is in demonstration operation (S65F; Yes), the operation of the first effect movable body 300 is limited (S65C). For example, the operation of the first effect movable body 300 is stopped. In addition, if the external movable body 810 is at the origin position, it is determined that it is not in operation, and if it is not at the origin position, it is determined that it is in operation. If the external movable body 810 is in operation (S65F; Yes), the operation of the external movable body 810 is restricted (S65C). For example, the external movable body 810 is returned to the origin position.

  On the other hand, when the first effect movable body 300 is not in the demonstration operation (S65F; No), the operation of the first effect movable body 300 and the external movable body 810 is prohibited (S65F). For example, in S65F, the effect control CPU 120 prohibits the operation of the first effect movable body 300 (for example, the first operation ACT1 and the second operation ACT2) and the operation of the external movable body 810. That is, from the start of the demonstration screen display to the start (execution) of the demonstration operation of the first effect movable body 300 and the external movable body 810, the end of the demonstration operation of the first effect movable body 300 and the external movable body 810 The operation of the first effect movable body 300 and the external movable body 810 is prohibited also in a period from when the demonstration screen display is ended to the end of the demonstration screen display. According to this, when the opening and closing frame 50 is opened in the period from the start of the demonstration screen display to the start of the demonstration operation of the first effect movable body 300 and the external movable body 810, the movable body operation can not be performed originally . In addition, it is possible not to execute the movable body operation even in a period from the end of the demonstration operation of the first effect movable body 300 and the external movable body 810 to the end of the demonstration screen display. It is possible to prevent, in advance, movement of an unexpected movable body (especially, a character due to biasing) caused by output of a movable body movement command due to command garbled or noise. On the other hand, when the door open flag is not on (S61; No), when the customer waiting demo specification command is not received (S65E; No), this process is ended after S65C or after S65D. In addition, as a movable body in the notification control process (S57) of another example 4 shown in FIG. 33 (B), it is not limited to only the first effect movable body 300, and the first effect movable body 300 and the second effect It may be at least one of the movable body 400, the third effect movable bodies 500L and 500R, and the fourth effect movable bodies 600L and 600R.

(Command analysis process)
In the command analysis process, the reception command (effect control command received by the effect control board 12) stored in the effect control command reception buffer is analyzed (for example, the MODE data is confirmed), and which effect control is received by the received command. It specifies whether it is a command and performs processing according to the specified effect control command.

  For example, the reception flag is set or stored in each storage area according to the specified effect control command. Each flag and each storage area are provided in the RAM 122. The "set" of a flag means turning on the flag. The state of each flag and the command stored in each storage area may be reset or deleted at an appropriate timing. When the special designation reserve memory number addition designation command or the special figure reserve storage number subtraction designation command is received, the first reserve storage display area 5D of the effect display device 5A or the second reserve storage display area 5U is displayed accordingly. The number of images may be increased or decreased.

(Effect control process process)
The effect control CPU 120 performs start setting (start setting for effect) for starting execution of various effects in the effect control process, and effect operation control for executing the effect set for the start. Each flag, each timer, each counter, etc. which are demonstrated below are provided in RAM122.

  The start setting of the effect includes, for example, setting the effect control pattern as the usage pattern in the RAM 122, and setting an initial value according to the effect control pattern set above in the process timer. After setting the initial value, the timer value of the process timer is subtracted at a predetermined timing (at the start of effect control process processing, at the time of effect operation control described later, etc.) each time a timer interrupt occurs. The effect control pattern is a group of data for executing various effects (including variable display of effect symbols) and is associated with the process timer determination value to be compared with the timer value of the process timer and the determination value. It comprises process data including the effect control execution data (display control data, voice control data, lighting control data, etc.) and end code. Data constituting the effect control pattern is stored in the ROM 121.

  The effect operation control is control for executing an effect based on the effect control pattern set in the start setting of the effect. Specifically, of the effect control execution data corresponding to the process timer determination value matching the current timer value of the process timer, the display control command according to the display control data is transmitted to the display control unit 123 and effect display Display an image on the devices 5A, 5X, 5Y, transmit a drive control command according to the drive control data to the display device drive mechanism 900 to drive the effect display devices 5X, 5Y, or an effect according to the voice control data A sound signal is transmitted to the sound control board 13 to output sound from the speakers 8L, 8R, or an illumination signal according to the lighting control data is transmitted to the LED control board 14 to turn on / off the LED 9 for effect Control to execute an effect. Execution of various effects is realized by repeatedly performing the effect operation control each time the timer interrupt occurs.

  FIG. 34 (A) is a flowchart showing an example of the effect control process. In the effect control process, the effect control CPU 120 executes any one of S170 to S175 in accordance with the value of the effect process flag.

  Next, the processes of S170 to S175 will be described. The variable display start waiting process of S170 is a process that is executed when the value of the effect process flag is "0". In the variable display start waiting process, the CPU for effect control 120 determines whether or not a fluctuation pattern designation command or the like from the main substrate 11 has been received. The determination may be made based on, for example, whether or not the command is stored in the variation pattern designation command storage area. If the command has been received, the value of the effect process flag is updated to “1”, and the process ends. If the command has not been received, the process ends.

  The variable display start setting process of S171 is a process that is executed when the value of the effect process flag is "1". In the variable display start setting process shown in FIG. 34 (B), the effect control CPU 120 first determines a final stop symbol etc. to be a finalized effect symbol as a variable display result of the effect symbol (S321). For example, the effect control CPU 120 performs final stop based on the variable display content such as the change pattern indicated by the change pattern designation command transmitted from the main substrate 11 or the variable display result indicated by the variable display result notification command. Determine the pattern. As an example, in the variable display contents according to the combination of the fluctuation pattern and the variable display result, “non reach (loss)”, “reach (loss)”, “non probability change (big hit)”, “certain change (big hit)” is there.

  When the variable display content is “non-reach (loss)”, the variable display state of the production symbol is not in the reach state, but the fixed presentation symbol of the non-reach combination is stopped and displayed, and the variable display result is “loss It becomes ". When the variable display content is "reach (losing)", after the variable display state of the rendering symbol becomes the reaching state, the final rendering symbol of the reach losing combination is stopped and displayed, and the variable display result becomes "loss" . When the variable display content is "non-probable change (big hit)", the variable display result is "big hit", and the game state after the end of the big hit game state is short. When the variable display content is "probable change (big hit)", the variable display result is "big hit", and the gaming state after the end of the big hit gaming state becomes the positive change state.

  When the variable display content is "non-reach (loss)", the effect control CPU 120 stops the different (mismatched) effect symbols on the "left" and "right" effect symbol display areas 5L and 5R. Decide on. The CPU 120 for effect control extracts the numerical data indicating the random value for left fixed symbol determination updated by the random number circuit 124 or the random counter for effect, etc., and stores the left fixed symbol determination table stored and prepared in the ROM 121 in advance. By referring to the determined effect pattern, the left determined effect pattern to be stopped and displayed in the "left" effect pattern display area 5L on the screen of the effect display device 5A is determined. Next, the numerical data indicating the right determined symbol determination random number value updated by the random number circuit 124 or the effect random counter is extracted, and the right determined symbol determination table stored and prepared in the ROM 121 is referred to. Thus, among the determined effect symbols, the right determined effect symbols to be stopped and displayed in the “right” effect symbol display area 5R on the screen of the effect display device 5A are determined. At this time, it is preferable that the symbol number of the right determined effect symbol is determined to be different from the symbol number of the left determined effect symbol by setting in the right determined symbol determination table or the like. Subsequently, numerical value data indicating a random value for determining the middle fixed symbol determined to be updated by the random number circuit 124 or the random counter for effect is extracted, and the middle fixed symbol determination table stored and prepared in the ROM 121 is referred to Among the determined effect symbols, the determined effect symbol in the middle of being displayed stopped in the "in" effect symbol display area 5C on the screen of the effect display device 5A is determined.

  When the variable display content is "reach (loss)", the effect control CPU 120 stops the same (matching) effect symbols in the "left" and "right" effect symbol display areas 5L and 5R. Decide on. The CPU 120 for effect control extracts the numerical data indicating the random value for determining the left and right fixed symbol determined to be updated by the random number circuit 124 or the random counter for effect, etc., and stores the left and right fixed symbol determination table stored in advance in the ROM 121 By referring to, etc., among the determined effect symbols, the left and the right effect symbol display areas 5L and 5R on the screen of the effect display device 5A are identically displayed in the same symbol number displayed in the stop symbol display area decide. Furthermore, numerical data indicating a random value for determining the middle fixed symbol determined to be updated by the random number circuit 124 or the random counter for effect is extracted, and the middle fixed symbol determination table stored in advance in the ROM 121 is referred to Thus, the determined effect design symbol that is stopped and displayed in the "in" effect symbol display area 5C on the screen of the effect display device 5A among the determined effect symbols is determined. For example, as in the case where the symbol number of the middle fixed effect design symbol is the same as the left fixed effect symbol and the right fixed effect symbol pattern number, an arbitrary value (for example, “ By adding or subtracting 1 ′ ′) to or from the symbol number of the middle determined effect design, the fixed effect pattern may be a reach combination without being a big hit combination. Alternatively, when determining the middle fixed effect pattern, the difference between the left fixed effect pattern and the right fixed effect pattern (symbol difference) may be determined, and the middle fixed effect pattern corresponding to the symbol difference may be set. .

  If the variable display content is "non-probability (big hit)" or "probability (big hit)", the CPU 120 for production control, "left", "middle", "right" effect symbol display areas 5L, 5C, 5R Determine the same (matching) effect pattern in the final stop pattern. The CPU for effect control 120 extracts numerical data indicating a random number value for determining the jackpot final symbol updated by the random number circuit 124 or the random counter for effect. Subsequently, by referring to the big hit finalized symbol determination table stored and prepared in advance in the ROM 121, the “left”, “middle” and “right” effect symbol display area 5L on the screen of the effect display device 5A, 5C and 5R are aligned and stopped, and the symbol numbers displayed are the same. At this time, depending on whether the variable display content is "non-probability (big hit)" or "probability (big hit)", and whether or not a jackpot promotion promotion is performed, etc., a normal symbol (for example, an even number It may be determined which of the rendering symbol to be shown and the definite variation symbol (for example, the rendering symbol indicating an odd number) is to be the finalized rendering symbol. The jackpot promotion promotion is a jackpot gaming state or a jackpot gaming state after a combination of staging symbols (non-probability jackpot combination) that causes a jackpot to be recalled in the presentation display device 5A but does not evoke a definite change state is temporarily displayed once It is an effect of informing whether or not to become a definite change state at the end of.

  As a specific example, in the case where the variable display content is "non-probability change (big hit)", among the plurality of types of normal symbols, the one to be the determined effect design is determined. When it is determined that the variable display content is "probable change (big hit)" and it is decided not to execute the big hit and middle promotion effect, a thing to be a fixed effect pattern is determined from among a plurality of types of probability change symbols. On the other hand, when it is determined that the jackpot middle promotion effect is to be executed even if the variable display content is "probable change (big hit)", among the plurality of types of normal symbols, the one to be the finalized design symbol is determined. In this way, it is possible to prevent the player from being distrusted by preventing the jackpot promotion effect from being executed despite the fact that the definite variation symbols are equally drawn out and displayed as the fixed effect symbols.

  After S321, a change effect setting process of executing execution setting of the hold display change effect is executed (S322). In the change presentation setting process, the execution setting of the suspension display change presentation is performed when the execution condition of the suspension display change presentation is satisfied based on the storage content of the suspension display data storage unit and the like. In the change effect setting process, the execution setting of the on-hold display change effect is performed when the condition for executing the on-hold display change effect is satisfied based on whether or not the variable display effect of “pseudo series” is executed. You may do so.

  After S322, the effect control pattern is determined to be any of a plurality of patterns prepared in advance (S323). For example, the effect control CPU 120 selects one of a plurality of effect control patterns (special figure fluctuation effect control pattern) prepared corresponding to the fluctuation pattern indicated by the fluctuation pattern designation command and the like as a usage pattern. set. Further, the effect control CPU 120 selects one of a plurality of effect control patterns (display change effect control patterns) prepared corresponding to the execution setting of the pending display change effect by the change effect setting process of S322, and the usage pattern Set as.

  After S323, the effect control CPU 120 executes a movable body effect setting process (S323A) for operating the movable body in the case of the reach effect of the super reach A, for example.

  In the movable body effect setting process shown in FIG. 35A, the effect control CPU 120 determines whether it is the change pattern of the super reach A based on the change pattern indicated by the change pattern designation command from the main substrate 11. (S501). If it is determined that it is the variation pattern of the super reach A (S501; Yes), the presence or absence and the type of movable object effect are determined (S502). Specifically, in the process of S502, the effect control CPU 120 extracts numerical data indicating the movable body effect determination random number, and extracts the extracted numerical data and the movable body effect determination table shown in FIG. 35 (B). It is used to determine whether or not to perform the movable body effect, and in the case of the presence, the operation pattern thereof.

  As shown in FIG. 35 (B), in the case of the super reach A (loss) fluctuation pattern, “without execution” is 15%, “with execution” and “operation pattern PTA-1 (first operation mode shown in FIG. 11). Is determined with a probability of 55%, and “performed” with a probability of 30% of “operation pattern PTA-2 (second operation mode shown in FIG. 12 after becoming the first operation mode shown in FIG. 11)”. Is determined by The “operation pattern PTA-1” is, for example, an operation pattern in which the first effect movable body 300 is in the first operation mode illustrated in FIG. 11 and the external movable body 810 performs an advancing operation. Further, for example, the “operation pattern PTA-2” becomes the second operation mode shown in FIG. 12 after the first effect movable body 300 becomes the first operation mode shown in FIG. 11, and the external movable body 810 moves forward. It is an operation pattern. The advanced position of the external movable body 810 may be different between the operation pattern PTA-1 and the operation pattern PTA-2. For example, in the operation pattern PTA-1, the external movable body 810 may advance to the first advancing position, and in the operation pattern PTA-2, the external movable body 810 may advance to the second advancing position advanced from the first advancing position. . On the other hand, in the case of the super reach A (big hit) fluctuation pattern, “No execution” is 10%, “execution is” and “operation pattern PTA-1 (first operation mode)” is determined with a probability of 20%. In the "with execution", the "operation pattern PTA-2 (the second operation mode after the first operation mode)" is determined with a 70% probability. In the case of the big hit, the movable body effect is easier to be executed than in the case of the loss, and it is possible to have a feeling of expectation of the big hit about the movable body effect, and the interest of the game is improved. Moreover, in the case of the super reach A (big hit) fluctuation pattern, the movable body effect of the “operation pattern PTA-2 (the second operation mode after the first operation mode)” is more than that in the case of the super reach A (loss) fluctuation pattern. With regard to the movable object effect in which the first effect movable body 300 operates in the second operation mode shown in FIG. 12, it is easy to execute, and a feeling of expectation of a big hit can be provided, and the interest of the game is improved. Further, even in the case of the super reach A (big hit) fluctuation pattern, the “operation pattern PTA-1 (first operation mode shown in FIG. 11)” is executed. Also with regard to the movable body effect operating in one operation mode, it is possible to have a feeling of expectation of a big hit, and the interest of the game is improved. Here, the operation pattern PTA-2 performs the second operation mode after becoming the first operation mode, but is not limited to this. For example, the operation pattern PTA-2 may perform only the second operation mode shown in FIG.

  In addition to the variation pattern of the super reach A, the movable object effect may be executable in the variation pattern of the super reach B. Further, the variation pattern of the super reach may include a variation pattern having a pseudo continuous variation. For example, with regard to the determination of the movable object effect, the determination ratio may be such that the expectation degree is higher as the number of times of the pseudo continuous change is larger. The determination ratio may be set to be different depending on whether or not the game is a big hit, and the number of times of pseudo continuous change.

  After S502 shown in FIG. 35A, it is determined whether the movable object effect is determined to be present (S503). If it is determined that the movable body effect is present (S 503; Yes), the movable body effect flag indicating that the movable body effect is performed is set to the on state (S 504). After S504, the effect control CPU 120 determines whether at least one of the first movable body dead end flag and the second movable body dead end flag is in the on state (S504A). If neither the first movable body dead end flag nor the second movable body dead end flag is on (S504A; No), a movable body effect pattern corresponding to the movable body effect of the type determined in S502 is set. (S505). That is, the operation pattern PTA-1 or PTA-2 determined in S502 is set. On the other hand, if at least one of the first movable body dead end flag and the second movable body dead end flag is in the on state (S 504 A; Yes), this is an effect pattern replacing the movable body effect pattern, and the first movable body ( For example, an alternative rendering pattern in which the first effect movable body 300 or the like and the second movable body (external movable body 810) are not operated is set (S505A). If it is determined in S501 that the pattern is not the super reach fluctuation pattern (S501; No), if there is no movable body effect in S503 (S503; No), after S505 or after S505A, the movable body effect End the setting process.

  Returning to FIG. 34B, following the processing of S323A, the CPU for effect control 120, for example, corresponds to a predetermined area (the effect control timer setting unit) of the RAM 122 corresponding to the fluctuation pattern designated by the fluctuation pattern designation command The initial value of the effect control process timer provided in is set (S324). Then, the setting for starting the fluctuation of the effect pattern etc. is performed on the screen of the effect display device 5A (S325). At this time, for example, the display control command specified by the display control data included in the effect control pattern (special pattern variation effect control pattern) determined in the process of S323 is transmitted to the VDP of the display control unit 123, etc. Thus, it is only necessary to start the variation of the rendering symbols in the “left”, “middle” and “right” rendering symbol display areas 5L, 5C, 5R provided in the display area of the rendering display device 5A.

  After S325, the first hold display of the first hold storage display area 5D and the second hold display of the second hold storage display area 5U are updated in response to the variable display of the effect pattern being started. The setting is performed (S326). For example, when the first special view game is executed (started), the display area (display area at the left end) corresponding to the hold number "1" in the first hold storage display area 5D is erased (digested) The first holding display in the display region corresponding to the other holding numbers "2" to "4" is moved (shifted) to the left one by one. On the other hand, when the second special view game is executed (started), the display area (display area at the right end) corresponding to the hold number "1" is erased (digested) in the second hold storage display area 5U. At the same time, the second hold display in the display area corresponding to the other hold numbers “2” to “4” is shifted (shifted) one by one to the right. Thereafter, the value of the rendering process flag is updated to “2” which is a value corresponding to the variable display processing (S327), and the variable display start setting processing is ended.

  Returning to FIG. 34A, the variable display processing in S172 is processing that is executed when the value of the effect process flag is “2”. In the variable display effect process shown in FIG. 36, the effect control CPU 120 determines whether or not the variable display time corresponding to the fluctuation pattern has elapsed based on, for example, the timer value of the effect control process timer (S341) . As an example, in the process of S341, the timer value of the effect control process timer is updated (for example, decremented by 1), and the end code is read out from the effect control pattern corresponding to the updated effect control process timer value. It may be determined that the variable display time has elapsed. When the variable display time has not elapsed in S341 (S341; No), the CPU 120 for effect control determines whether or not it is a hold display change effect period for executing the hold display change effect (S342) ). The pending display change effect period may be determined in advance in the effect control pattern (display change effect control pattern) determined in the process of S323 shown in FIG. 34B, for example. When it is a suspension display change presentation period (S342; Yes), control for executing suspension display transition presentation is performed (S343). In the process of S343, various commands created based on the setting of the display change effect control pattern are transmitted to the display control unit 123, the voice control board 13, the LED control board 14, and the like. Thus, displaying a predetermined effect image on the screen of the effect display device 5A, 5X, 5Y, outputting a predetermined sound effect from the speakers 8L, 8R, turning on, blinking or extinguishing the effect LED 9; Alternatively, by combining a part or all of them, it is only necessary to be able to execute the on-hold display change presentation in a predetermined presentation device.

  When it is determined that the on-hold display change effect period is not determined in S342 (S342; No) or after S343, the effect control CPU 120 determines whether or not it is a reach effect period for executing reach effect. It determines (S346). The reach effect period may be determined in advance, for example, in the effect control pattern determined in accordance with the fluctuation pattern. When it is determined in S346 that it is a reach effect period (S346; Yes), control for performing reach effect is performed (S347). After S347, the effect control CPU 120 determines whether the movable object effect flag is on (S347A). If the movable body effect flag is on (S347A; Yes), it is determined whether or not the operation valid period in which the operation of the stick controller 31A or the like is valid (S347B). If it is the operation valid period (S347B; Yes), it is determined whether or not the stick controller 31A has been operated (S347C). If the stick controller 31A has been operated (S347C; Yes), the operation flag is set to the on state (S347D). When it is determined that the operation effective period is not in S347B (S347B; No), or when it is determined that the stick controller 31A is not operated in S347C (S347C; No), or after S347D, the movable body It is determined whether it is a presentation period (S347E). If it is a movable body effect period (S347E; Yes), it is determined whether the operation flag is on (S347F). If the operation flag is on (S347F; Yes), it is determined whether or not the movable object rendering pattern is set (S347J). If the movable object rendering pattern is set (S347J; Yes), movable object rendering execution processing is performed (S347G). On the other hand, if the movable object rendering pattern is not set (S347J; No), and the operation flag is not on (S347F; No), an alternative rendering execution process for replacing the movable object rendering is performed (S347H). When the movable object rendering pattern is set (S347J; Yes), the movable object rendering execution process may be performed (S347G) even when the operation flag is not on (S347F; No).

  When it is determined that the movable object effect flag is not on in S347A (S347A; No), or when it is determined that the movable object effect period is not in S347E (S347E; No), after S347G, or S347H After the, the effect control CPU 120 executes effects during variable display including the variable display operation of the effect pattern based on, for example, settings in the effect control pattern determined corresponding to the fluctuation pattern. Control is performed (S348).

  If the variable display time has elapsed in S341 (S341; Yes), it is determined whether or not the symbol determination command transmitted from the main substrate 11 has been received (S349). At this time, if the symbol determination command is not received (S 349; No), the variable display effect processing is ended and the process waits. In addition, after the variable display time elapses, when the predetermined time elapses without receiving the symbol determination command, a predetermined error processing is executed in response to the failure to receive the symbol determination command normally. You may When the symbol determination command is received at S 349 (S 349; Yes), the display result in the variable display of the effect design, for example, transmitting a predetermined display control command to the VDP of the display control unit 123 or the like Control is performed to derive and display the final stop symbol (decision effect symbol) to be (S 350). Further, in the process of S350, the final stop symbol in the variable display of the effect symbol is derived and displayed. Then, after S350, a predetermined time predetermined as the hit start designation command reception waiting time is set (S351). After S351, the movable object presentation flag and the operation flag are reset to the off state (S351A). Then, after the value of the effect process flag is updated to “3” which is a value corresponding to the special-image-per-wait process (S 352), the variable-display effect process is ended.

  In S173, the process of waiting for a special figure is a process that is executed when the value of the effect process flag is "3." The effect control CPU 120 determines whether or not the current elapsed time since the final stop symbol has been derived and displayed (which may be measured by a predetermined timer) has reached a preset start start command reception waiting time. If the hit start designation command is received when the hit start designation command is received (when the hit start designation command reception flag is on), the jackpot effect (from the start of the fanfare to the end of the jackpot executed during the jackpot gaming state) (A set of effect control patterns). Thereafter, the value of the effect process flag is updated to "4", and the present process is ended. If the hit start designation command reception waiting time has not been reached and there is no reception of the hit start designation command, this processing ends. If the current elapsed time has reached the waiting time, the variable display result of the special drawing game is determined to be "loss", the value of the rendering process flag is updated to "0", and the present process is ended. Since the current elapsed time has not reached the above-mentioned waiting time and the hit start designation command reception waiting time has not elapsed, the present processing is ended as it is.

  The in-hit processing of S174 is processing to be executed when the value of the effect process flag is "4". For example, the effect control CPU 120 sets an effect control pattern or the like corresponding to the effect content in the big hit gaming state, and displays an effect image based on the setting content on the screen of the effect display devices 5A, 5X, 5Y, Outputting voices and sound effects from the speakers 8L and 8R by operating the effect display devices 5X and 5Y, and outputting commands (sound effect signals) to the sound control board 13, commands (electric decoration signals for the LED control board 14 The various presentation operations in a predetermined period in which the special winning opening door as an attacker is in an open state, such as turning on / off the effect LED 9 by the output of) are controlled. In the hit processing, the value of the rendering process flag is updated to "5" corresponding to the ending effect processing, for example, in response to the reception of the hit end designation command from the main substrate 11.

  The ending process of S175 is a process executed when the value of the effect process flag is "5", and is a process for executing an ending at the end of the big hit gaming state. In the ending process, in the effect display devices 5A, 5X, 5Y, display control is performed to notify the player that the big hit gaming state has ended.

  Next, an example of the combined effect including the movable body effect and the display device effect according to the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 37: (A)-(F) is explanatory drawing which shows an example of the flow of composite presentation.

  First, as shown in FIG. 37 (A), for example, after the reach state is established in a predetermined symbol variation display, as shown in FIG. It moves so as to approach the position on the front side, and displays indicating that the effect display devices 5X and 5Y have developed into super reach effect and the like are executed.

  Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 37 (C), the effect display devices 5X and 5Y contact each other to form one display unit, and promote operation prompting the player to operate the operation means to the display unit. The image is displayed.

  When the player operates the operation means during the operation acceptance period of the operation means, as shown in FIG. 37 (D), the effect display devices 5X and 5Y move to the standby position, and the movable body effect in the present embodiment The movable body effect is executed on the assumption that the start condition of the second stage is satisfied, and the first effect movable body 300, the second effect movable body 400, and the third effect movable bodies 500L and 500R perform effect operation to move the movable body unit from the operation standby mode Change to one operation mode. At this time, each movable body is superimposed in front of the display unit of the effect display device 5A, and the display unit of the effect display device 5A becomes difficult to visually recognize from the player. Further, the advancing operation of the external movable body 810 is performed.

  When the first operation mode of the movable body unit passes a predetermined time, as shown in FIG. 37E, the second effect movable body 400 and the third effect movable bodies 500L and 500R are accommodated, and the first effect movable body The 300 and the fourth effect movable bodies 600L and 600R perform rendering operations, and the movable body unit changes from the first operation mode to the second operation mode. Also at this time, each movable body is superimposed in front of the display unit of the effect display device 5A, and the display unit of the effect display device 5A becomes difficult to visually recognize from the player. In addition, during execution of the movable body effect (for example, as shown in FIG. 37D, when the movable body unit changes from the operation standby mode to the first operation mode, when the movable body unit is in the first operation mode, FIG. As shown in (E), when changing to the second operation mode, etc., the game area side light emitting component (for example, the light emitting component (LED) of the center decoration frame 52, the normal winning ball device 6A or the normal variable winning ball device 6B light-emitting component (LED), at least one of the light-emitting component (LED) for emitting at least a part of the surface of the game board 2 is turned off or at a lower luminance than when not performing the movable object effect It emits light. Thereby, the movable body effect can be made to stand out, and the player can be made to gaze at the movable body effect. Thus, the effect of the presentation can be improved.

  Next, when the second operation mode of the movable body unit passes a predetermined time, the storage operation of the first effect movable body 300 and the fourth effect movable bodies 600L and 600R is executed, the external movable body 810 is returned to the origin position, and the movable Body rendition is over. Then, a super reach effect is executed, and after the execution of the super reach effect, for example, in the case of a big hit, the effect display device 5A aligns the symbols indicating the big hit and displays (for example, 7-7-7 etc.) The effect image (for example, a character or a character) is displayed on the effect display devices 5X and 5Y.

  As described above, in the pachinko gaming machine 1 of the above-described embodiment, the first movable body (on the basis of the fact that the first condition is satisfied (for example, the number of times of origin return operation has been reached three times) For example, based on the fact that the rendering operation of the first effect movable body 300 etc.) is limited, and the second condition different from the first condition is satisfied (for example, 10 times in the case of the number of origin return operations) Since the rendering operation of the second movable body (for example, the external movable body 810 and the like) is limited, it is possible to control the movable body appropriately.

  In addition, as the satisfaction of the first condition (for example, the first confirmation condition), if the number of operations for returning to the origin of the first movable body (for example, the first effect movable body 300 or the like) is reached, The number of times other than three times may be reached. In addition, as the satisfaction of the first condition (for example, the first confirmation condition), the arrival of the operation period of the origin return may be performed. If it is an operation period of this origin return, it may be assumed that 30 seconds have been reached, or a time other than 30 seconds may be reached. Further, in this embodiment, although the cumulative number of operations of origin return is made when the first movable body (for example, the first effect movable body 300 etc.) is not at the origin position, the number of continuous operations of origin return may be used. An accumulated operation period of home return, a continuous operation period of home return, or the like may be used. In addition, as the satisfaction of the second condition (for example, the second confirmation condition), the number of operations of the second movable body (for example, the external movable body 810 and the like) for returning to the origin is ten. The number of times other than the number of times may be reached. In addition, as the satisfaction of the second condition (for example, the second confirmation condition), arrival of an operation period of origin return may be performed. If it is an operation period of this origin return, it may be assumed that it has reached 100 seconds, or it may take a time other than 100 seconds. Further, in this embodiment, although the accumulated number of operations of origin return is made when the second movable body (for example, the external movable body 810 etc.) is not at the origin position, the number of continuous operations of origin return may be An accumulated operation period of return, a continuous operation period of origin return, or the like may be used.

  For example, the first confirmation of the first movable body (for example, the first effect movable body 300 or the like) to which the player can not contact the second movable body (for example, the external movable body 810 or the like) which can be contacted by the player If the operation is limited under the same condition as the condition, the operation of the movable body is restricted manually, and there is a possibility that appropriate control of the movable body can not be performed. Therefore, with respect to the second movable body, there is a possibility that the player can not return to the home position due to the contact of the player, so that the second confirmation condition (in other words, the condition including the first confirmation condition) Since the rendering operation of the second movable body is limited when the origin position is not returned under the condition where the threshold is expanded, the second movable body is restricted to the first confirmation condition of the first movable body. Instead, the movable body can be controlled in consideration of the respective environments of the first movable body and the second movable body. Thereby, appropriate movable body control can be performed.

  In addition, after a predetermined operation (for example, at least one operation of the initialization operation and the rendering operation) of the second movable body (for example, the external movable body 810), every special period (for example, every minute) Since whether or not the second movable body is at the origin position is monitored, it is possible to reliably operate the second movable body which can be touched by the player from the origin position. Thereby, appropriate movable body control can be performed.

  In addition, when the second movable body (for example, the external movable body 810 or the like) is at the advanced position or in operation, when the door member (for example, the opening and closing frame 50 or the like) is opened, the second movable Since the body is moved to the home position, opening the door member can prevent the second movable body in the advanced position or in operation from coming in contact with another component (such as the adjacent game machine or related equipment) or a person. . Thereby, appropriate movable body control can be performed.

  In addition, when the period in which the second movable body (for example, the external movable body 810 etc.) can not return to the origin position becomes a special period (for example 10 seconds etc.), it shifts to an error state, so the state of the second movable body is grasped And can take action according to the error condition. Thereby, appropriate movable body control can be performed.

  In addition, after the error state, the initialization operation (for example, the initial operation) including moving the second movable body (for example, the external movable body 810 or the like) to the origin position is performed. (2) The movable body can be appropriately returned. Thereby, appropriate movable body control can be performed.

  In addition, since the rendering operation of the second movable body is limited when the number of times of error, which is the number of times the error state occurs, reaches the specific number, the probability that the second movable body is in the error state can be suitably determined. The rendering operation of the second movable body in the state can be limited. Thereby, appropriate movable body control can be performed.

  In addition, a door member (for example, the opening and closing frame 50 and the like) which can be opened and closed with respect to a main body (for example, the gaming machine frame 3 and the like), a transparent member (for example, the window 51) provided in the door member And a movable body control unit (for example, CPU 120 for effect control) for controlling at least the operation of the third movable body (for example, the first effect movable body 300). Has a first transmission member (for example, the first transmission body 250) and a second transmission member (for example, the second transmission body 260) provided closer to the main body than the first transmission member, The movable body control means can operate the third movable body from a first position toward a second position between the first transmitting member and the second transmitting member (for example, CPU for effect control 12 that executes the processing of S323A, S172 Thus, as shown in FIG. 38, the first effect movable body 300 can execute the second operation ACT2 toward the second position P2 between the first transparent body 250 and the second transparent body 260, etc.), When the door member is opened during the operation of the third movable body, a process for stopping the operation of the third movable body is executed (for example, the CPU 120 for effect control for executing the process of S64). It is possible to prevent problems due to the movable body when the door is in the open state. The third movable body is, for example, the first effect movable body 300, but may be another movable body.

  In addition, the window 51 has a first transmitting body 250 and a second transmitting body 260 disposed closer to the game area 10 than the first transmitting body 250 and in which a hole 270 is formed, and the first transmission At least a part of the first effect movable body 300 can enter the space S formed between the body 250 and the second transparent body 260 through the hole 270, and the first effect movable body 300 A second operation of moving to a first effect position entering between the one transmission body 250 and the second transmission body 260 is executable. That is, the first effect movable body 300 can rapidly enter the first effect position shown in FIG. 17 or 18 from the first standby position (origin position) shown in FIG. can do. Thereby, the effect of presentation can be improved.

  In addition, acceleration advancing means (for the slide plate 301 of the one movable body 300 and the rail 701 of the base member 700) for accelerating the first effect movable body 300 to advance between the first transparent body 250 and the second transparent body 260 and advancing. Since the slide plate 301 of the first effect movable body 300 can be accelerated obliquely downward along the rail 701 of the base member 700 and advanced. For this reason, it is possible to provide the player with powerful moving object effects. Thereby, the effect of presentation can be improved.

  For example, since the rail 701 of the base member 700 is a guide member having a diagonally downward linear path (a downward guide path portion), the slide plate 301 of the first effect movable body 300 faces downward along the obliquely downward rail 701. By being guided to, it is possible to accelerate the first effect movable body 300 and to advance to the second position P2. For this reason, it is possible to provide the player with powerful moving object effects. Note that part of the rail 701 may have a portion other than downward.

  Further, the first standby position shown in FIG. 16 in which the first effect movable body 300 does not overlap with the effect display device 5A (display means) (or may be a position where a part thereof overlaps with the display means). It is possible to operate from the (origin position) to the first effect position shown in FIG. 17 or 18. For example, the first effect movable body 300 at the origin position is invisible or hardly visible to the player, and the first effect movable body 300 at the origin position suddenly appears at the first effect position. It can give the player a surprise. For this reason, it is possible to provide the player with powerful moving object effects.

  In addition, the effect control CPU 120 is configured such that a predetermined portion (front half) of the surface A side (front side) of the main body portion 302 of the first effect movable body 300 in the first standby position passes through the hole portion 270 of the rear transmission plate 261 First control to move to the front side until it is positioned closer to the front transmission plate 251 than the rear transmission plate 261, and a predetermined part (front half) of the surface A side (front side) of the main body 302 after performing the first control After moving the first projection 303, which is a part of), in a direction (upper front direction) intersecting the moving direction (lower front direction) in the first control, or after executing the first control, the main body In a direction (front upper direction) intersecting a second projection 304 which is a part of a predetermined portion (front half) on the side A (front side) 302 of the first control 302 in the first control. It is possible to perform the 2nd control to which it moves. According to this configuration, after performing the first control for moving the first effect movable body 300 to the first transparent body 250 side, at least a part of the predetermined portion of the main body portion 302 (for example, the first protrusion 303 or the first (2) The second control is performed to move the second protrusion 304) in the first transmission body 250 side with respect to the second transmission body 260 in a direction (front upper direction) different from the moving direction (front downward direction) in the first control Thus, the player can have an impact, and the effect of the presentation can be improved.

  Specifically, after performing the first control as well as the first control for moving the first effect movable body 300 to the first transmitting body 250 side, it is different from the moving direction (forward downward direction) in the first control By performing the second control to move in the direction (forward upward direction), a part of the main body 302 (for example, the first protrusion 303 and the second protrusion 304) is expanded and the first effect movable body 300 is expanded. Because it looks like you are doing, you can give the player an impact.

  In addition, the rear transparent plate 261 is disposed to face the front side of the board 200 so that the game balls can flow down between the game board 200A, and the flow area of the game balls is formed between the game board 200A. The hole 270 is formed at a position corresponding to the effect area (the opening 2 c formed in the board 200) which does not correspond to the flow-down area of the game ball in the game area 10. That is, since it is necessary to secure the flow-down area of the game ball, there is a limit to increasing the size of the hole 270, and to pass the first effect movable body 300 to the hole 270, the first effect movable body The 300 can not be made larger than the hole 270.

  Therefore, after performing the first control for moving the first effect movable body 300 to the front side as in the present invention, at least a part of the predetermined part of the main body 302 (for example, the first protrusion 303 or the second protrusion) By performing the second control to move 304) in a direction (front upper direction) different from the moving direction (the front lower direction) in the first control on the front side of the second transmission body 260, thereby making the hole 270 more than necessary When the first effect movable body 300 is viewed from the front (player side) at a position closer to the player on the front side than the rear transmission plate 261, the main body portion 302 is expanded. Since the player can be made to appear as it is, the player can provide a more powerful presentation.

  In addition, in the second control, the effect control CPU 120 moves the first protrusion 303 and the second protrusion 304, which are part of the predetermined portion (the front half) of the main body 302, in the moving direction (the lower front). Move in the direction (upper front direction) that crosses the direction). By doing this, the movement (protrusion operation) of the first protrusion 303 and the second protrusion 304 of the first effect movable body 300 in the second control can be suitably shown.

  Further, in the second control, the first projecting portion 303 and the second projecting portion 304 which are a part of the predetermined portion (the front half) of the main body portion 302 intersect with the moving direction (the front lower direction) in the first control. When viewed from the front, the first projecting portion 303 and the second projecting portion 304 are provided around the main body portion 302 in order to move in the front upward direction, which is the direction along the front transmission plate 251. Since the game can be expanded and moved toward the player, more powerful effects can be provided.

  The first effect movable body 300 moves in the second control in the opposite direction (front side) to the game area 10, that is, moves so as to gradually come out to the front side by the first control and the second control. It is possible to make a presentation.

  In addition, since the first effect movable body 300 moves to the front side while moving downward toward the first effect position from the first standby position to the first effect position by the first control, the player can be compared with one moving horizontally. It can make it easy to understand how it moves toward the side. Further, not only the surface A but also the surface B of the main body 302 can be visually recognized when moving forward, so that the main body 302 can be made to look large.

  Further, in the first operation mode, the second effect movable body 400 supporting the first effect movable body 300 and the third effect movable bodies 500L and 500R, and in the second operation mode, the first effect movable body 300 is supported. [4] Support means such as movable objects 600L and 600R are provided. By doing this, it is possible to stabilize the attitude of the first effect movable body 300 during or after operation.

  More specifically, the first effect movable body 300 is movably supported by the base member 700 provided on the back side of the game board 2 and moves to the front side via the board 200 and the rear transmitting plate 261. Therefore, the moving distance is longer compared to the conventional movable body that moves only to the front of the rear transmission plate 261. Therefore, stable support via a guide rail or the like may be considered. If a guide rail or the like is provided up to this point, there is a possibility that the visibility may be lowered, for example, the guide rail or the like makes it difficult to see a part of the game area 10 behind. Therefore, by preventing the other fourth effect movable bodies 600L, 600R and the like from being supported only at the time of effect operation, it is possible to prevent the decrease in the visibility of the game area 10 when the movable object effect is not executed. Can.

  In addition, the CPU 120 for effect control is provided with related movable bodies (for example, the second effect movable body 400, the third effect movable bodies 500L and 500R, and the fourth effect movable bodies 600L and 600R, etc.) different from the first effect movable body 300. Is a control that moves the second effect movable body 400, the third effect movable bodies 500L and 500R, the fourth effect movable bodies 600L and 600R, etc. to the first effect movable body 300 so as to be united after performing the first control. It is possible. In this way, the first effect movable body 300 and the second movable body (for example, the second effect movable body 400, the third effect movable body 500L, 500R, and the fourth effect movable body 600L, 600R, etc.) are combined by combining. Can support each other so that the posture after movement can be stabilized.

  Specifically, in the first operation mode and the second operation mode of the movable body unit, related movable bodies (the second effect movable body 400, the third effect movable bodies 500L, 500R, and the fourth movable body different from the first effect movable body 300 4) Because the four effect movable bodies 600L and 600R) are arranged to abut or approach at the peripheral position of the first effect movable body 300, the projecting operation of the first projecting portion 303 and the second projecting portion 304 and the projecting operation Even if the first effect movable body 300 shakes later, it can support each other and stabilize its posture.

  When the second effect movable body 400 and the third effect movable bodies 500L and 500R merge with the first effect movable body 300 in the first operation mode, or in the second operation mode, the fourth effect movable bodies 600L and 600R The second effect movable body 400, the third effect movable bodies 500L and 500R, and the fourth effect movable bodies 600L and 600R are disposed on the rear side of the rear transmission plate 261 when united with the one effect movable body 300. It is supposed to be. By doing this, the first effect movable body 300 and the second movable body (for example, the second effect movable body 400, the third effect movable body 500L, 500R, and the fourth effect movable body 600L, 600R, etc.) Since the first effect movable body 300 in the first control is positioned at a different position in the movement direction (front-rear direction) in the first control, a sense of depth can be generated.

  Further, the window 51 can open and close the game area 10 (see FIG. 3), and the first effect movable body 300 does not contact the second transparent body 260 when opening and closing the window 51 (see FIG. 21). . By doing this, breakage of the first effect movable body 300 and the second transmitting body 260 can be prevented.

  Specifically, a portion on the front side of the first effect movable body 300 (a portion disposed closer to the front transmission plate 251 than the hole 270 in the closed state of the open / close frame 50) Because the rear transmission plate 261 does not contact the first effect movable body 300 even when the opening and closing frame 50 is opened and closed. According to this, for example, while the movable body unit is operating, that is, while the first control or the second control is being performed, an operation error or the like occurs and the first effect movable body 300 is stopped at the first effect position Therefore, even when it is necessary to open the opening and closing frame 50 to perform maintenance, the opening and closing frame 50 can be opened without contacting the rear transmission plate 261, so the rear transmission plate 261 and the first effect movable body 300 Can be prevented from being damaged.

  In the present embodiment, the first effect movable body 300 is disposed in the rotation area Z of the hole 270 even during the execution of the first control or the second control in the movable body effect, so Although the form which can open the opening and closing frame 50 without contacting the transmission plate 261 was illustrated, the present invention is not limited to this, and the second transmission body is not contacted when opening and closing the opening and closing frame 50 It should just be.

  Moreover, after performing 1st control to the 1st presentation movable body 300, the light emission means (For example, movable body LED350A, movable body LED350B, movable body LED350CL, etc. which can irradiate light other than the 1st transmission body 250). 350 CR and movable body LEDs 350 DL, 350 DR, etc.) are provided. By doing this, the effect can be appealed not only to the player but also to the surroundings.

  Specifically, not only the movement effect of the first effect movable body 300 but also the light emission effect of the movable body LED 350A, the movable body LED 350B, the movable body LEDs 350CL and 350CR, and the movable body LEDs 350DL and 350DR can be performed. You can appeal the production.

  In addition, a gaming machine frame 3 having a game board 2 for forming the gaming area 10, an opening / closing frame 50 provided so as to be openable to the gaming machine frame 3 and having a window 51, and a window in the opening / closing frame 50 51 includes an LED 9 for effect provided as an open / close door side light emitting component provided in an area other than 51, and a CPU 120 for effect control as light emission control means for performing light emission control of the effect LED 9; Changing the light emission mode of the effect LED 9 to the first to fifth light emission modes according to the operation of the body 300, the second effect movable body 400, the third effect movable bodies 500L and 500R, and the fourth effect movable bodies 600L and 600R Is possible. By doing this, the movement of the first effect movable body 300 can be suitably produced.

  Further, after the effect control CPU 120 causes the effect LED 9 to emit light in the first light emission mode, the effect control CPU 120 performs control to cause light emission in the second light emission mode whose luminance is lower than that of the first light emission mode. By doing this, it is possible to suppress the decrease in the transparency of the first effect movable body 300 and the like.

  Specifically, after performing the first control in the first light emission mode, in the second operation mode in which the movable body unit has a lower luminance than the first light emission mode in the first operation mode (the second control time) In the second control where the first effect movable body 300 appears to be expanding in order to emit light, the light of the effect LED 9 causes halation and the like to suppress the decrease in the visibility of each movable body. it can.

  In addition, a gaming machine frame 3 having a game board 2 for forming the gaming area 10, an opening / closing frame 50 provided so as to be openable to the gaming machine frame 3 and having a window portion 51, 51 includes an LED 9 for effect provided as an open / close door side light emitting component provided in an area other than 51, and a CPU 120 for effect control as light emission control means for performing light emission control of the effect LED 9 After that, the first effect movable body 300 is provided so as to be able to emit light. By doing this, it is possible to make the first effect movable body 300 noticeable by light.

  The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment and the like, and various modifications and applications are possible (the above configuration may be deleted). The modification of the said embodiment is shown below. At least a part of each of the following modifications may be combined.

  Although the hole 270 is formed in the second transmitting body 260 in the above embodiment, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, the second transmission body 260 may be formed with a cutout of a size that allows the first effect movable body 300 to enter.

(Modification 1)
In the above embodiment, the first effect movable body 300 moves obliquely downward from the first standby position (origin position) to the first effect position by the first drive mechanism 310 (arrows in FIGS. 13 and 16) 1) but it is not limited thereto. As in the first modification shown in FIG. 38, the first effect movable body 300 operates in a first operation ACT1 in which the first effect movable body 300 operates to a first position P1 where the first effect movable body 300 does not enter between the first transparent body 250 and the second transparent body 260; A second operation ACT2 operating at a second position P2 entering between the one transmission body 250 and the second transmission body 260 may be executable. That is, the first effect movable body 300 may operate in two steps as shown in FIG. For example, the first operation ACT1 in which the first effect movable body 300 moves from the first standby position (origin position P0) not entering between the first transmitting member 250 and the second transmitting member 260 to the first position P1 immediately below. (For example, movement in the drooping direction) is possible. Furthermore, the first effect movable body 300 enters between the first transparent body 250 and the second transparent body 260 via the hole portion 270 of the rear transparent plate 261 from the first position P1 toward the player A second operation ACT2 (for example, movement in the horizontal direction) operating at the second position P2 is possible.

  In addition, as shown in FIG. 38, the first effect movable body 300 is an origin which is a position (or a part of which may be overlapped with the display means) not overlapping the effect display device 5A (display means). It is operable from the position P0 to the first position P1 or the second position P2. For example, the first effect movable body 300 at the origin position P0 is invisible or hardly visible to the player, and the first effect movable body 300 located at the origin position P0 is suddenly at the first position P1 or the second position P2 Appear to give the player a surprise. For this reason, it is possible to provide the player with powerful moving object effects.

  Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 39A, the first effect movable body 300 may have different operation speeds in the first operation ACT1 and the second operation ACT2. The first operation ACT1 (movement from the home position P0 to the first position P1) is performed at the first speed V1. The second operation ACT2 (movement from the first position P1 to the second position P2) is performed at the second speed V2. The operation speed (second speed V2) of the second operation ACT2 is larger than the operation speed (first speed V1) of the first operation ACT1. For example, the first speeds V1 and V2 may be maximum speeds, average speeds, and the like. Specifically, in the process of S502 of the first modification, the effect control CPU 120 extracts numerical data indicating a movable body effect determination random number, and determines the extracted numerical data and the movable body effect shown in FIG. 39 (A). It is sufficient to determine whether or not to execute the movable body effect and, in the case of the presence, using the table for the movement and the operation pattern thereof.

  As shown in FIG. 39 (A), in the case of the super reach A (loss) fluctuation pattern, “no execution” is 15% and “execution is” “first operation pattern PTB-1 (first operation ACT1 only) Is determined with a probability of 55%, and with "execution", a "second operation pattern PTB-2 (a second operation ACT2 after a first operation ACT1)" is determined with a probability of 30%. On the other hand, in the case of the super reach A (big hit) fluctuation pattern, “no execution” is 10%, “on execution” and “first operation pattern PTB-1 (first operation ACT1 only)” is 20%. It is determined by the probability, and the “second operation pattern PTB-2 (the second operation ACT2 after the first operation ACT1)” is determined with the probability of “execution” with a probability of 70%. In the case of the big hit, the movable body effect is easier to be executed than in the case of the loss, and it is possible to have a feeling of expectation of the big hit about the movable body effect, and the interest of the game is improved. Further, in the case of the super reach A (big hit) fluctuation pattern, the movable body of the “second operation pattern PTB-2 (the second operation ACT2 after the first operation ACT1)” than in the case of the super reach A (loss) fluctuation pattern. The effect is easy to be executed, and the movable object effect in which the first effect movable body 300 executes the second operation ACT2 shown in FIG. 38 can have an expectation of a big hit, and the interest of the game is improved. Also, in the case of the super reach A (big hit) fluctuation pattern, the “first operation pattern PTB-1 (only the first operation ACT1)” is executed, so the first effect movable body 300 is the first shown in FIG. Also with regard to the movable body effect executing the operation ACT1, it is possible to have a feeling of expectation of a big hit, and the interest of the game is improved.

  According to the first modification, the first effect movable body 300 operates at the first position P1 in which the first effect movable body 300 does not enter between the first transparent body 250 and the second transparent body 260, and the first transparent body 250 And a second operation ACT2 operating at a second position P2 entering between the second transmission body 260 and the second transmission body 260. In particular, in the second operation ACT 2, the first effect movable body 300 operates at the second position P 2 where the first effect movable body 300 enters between the first transparent body 250 and the second transparent body 260. Body presentation can be provided. In addition, the operation speed is different between the first operation ACT1 and the second operation ACT2. For this reason, it is possible to provide a variety of movable object effects. Thereby, the effect of presentation can be improved.

  For example, it is assumed that the operation speed (second speed V2) of the second operation ACT2 is larger than the operation speed (first speed V1) of the first operation ACT1. Therefore, since the operation speed of the second position P2 close to the player is faster than the operation speed of the first position P1 far from the player, it is possible to provide a powerful movable object effect.

  The operating speed (second speed V2) of the second operation ACT2 may be smaller than the operating speed (first speed V1) of the first operation ACT1. In this case, since the operation speed when the first effect movable body 300 enters via the hole portion 270 or the notch portion of the rear transmission plate 261 is slow, the first effect movable body 300 in the second operation ACT2 The vibration (e.g., the vibration in a direction different from the traveling direction) is reduced, and the contact of the first effect movable body 300 with the hole 270 or the notch can be suppressed. For this reason, it is possible to reduce the failure of the first effect movable body 300 due to the second operation ACT2.

  Note that at least one of the operating speed, the operating range, the operating path, and the operating direction may be different between the first operation ACT1 and the second operation ACT2. In the first modification, as shown in FIG. 39, the operation speed is different between the first operation ACT1 and the second operation ACT2, and as shown in FIG. 38, the operation is performed in the first operation ACT1 and the second operation ACT2. The directions are also different. For example, with regard to the operation range, the second operation ACT2 may be larger than the first operation ACT1 or may be smaller. Further, with regard to the operation path, the operation path may be larger in the second operation ACT2 than in the first operation ACT1, or may be smaller. With regard to the operation direction, the second operation ACT2 may make the operation path larger in the direction different from the first operation ACT1 or vice versa.

  Further, as in the modification 1A shown in FIG. 39B, the first effect movable body 300 is a light emitting means (for example, movable body LEDs 350A, 350B, 350CL) accompanying the operation in the first operation ACT1 and the second operation ACT2. , 350 CR, 350 DL, 350 DR, etc.) may be different. The first operation ACT1 (movement from the origin position P0 to the first position P1) is performed in the first light emission mode (for example, the luminance I1). The second operation ACT2 (movement from the first position P1 to the second position P2) is performed in the second light emission mode (for example, the luminance I2). The luminance I2 of the second operation ACT2 is smaller than the luminance I1 of the first operation ACT1. Specifically, in the process of S502 of Modification 1A, the CPU for effect control 120 extracts numerical data indicating a random number for movable object effect determination, and the extracted numerical data and the movable object effect shown in FIG. 39 (B) are determined. It is sufficient to determine whether or not to execute the movable body effect and, in the case of the presence, using the table for the movement and the operation pattern thereof.

  As shown in FIG. 39 (B), in the case of the super reach A (loss) fluctuation pattern, “no execution” is 15%, “execution is”, and “first operation pattern PTC-1 (only first operation ACT1)”. Is determined with a probability of 55%, and with "execution", a "second operation pattern PTC-2 (a second operation ACT2 after a first operation ACT1)" is determined with a 30% probability. On the other hand, in the case of the super reach A (big hit) fluctuation pattern, “no execution” is 10%, “on execution” and “first operation pattern PTC-1 (first operation ACT1 only)” is 20%. It is determined by the probability, and the “second operation pattern PTC-2 (the second operation ACT2 after the first operation ACT1)” is determined with the probability of 70% in “execution”. In the case of the big hit, the movable body effect is easier to be executed than in the case of the loss, and it is possible to have a feeling of expectation of the big hit about the movable body effect, and the interest of the game is improved. Moreover, in the case of the super reach A (big hit) fluctuation pattern, the movable body of the “second operation pattern PTC-2 (the second operation ACT2 after the first operation ACT1)” than in the case of the super reach A (loss) fluctuation pattern. The effect is easy to be executed, and the movable object effect in which the first effect movable body 300 executes the second operation ACT2 shown in FIG. 38 can have an expectation of a big hit, and the interest of the game is improved. Also, in the case of the super reach A (big hit) fluctuation pattern, the “first operation pattern PTC-1 (only the first operation ACT1)” is executed, so the first effect movable body 300 is the first shown in FIG. Also with regard to the movable body effect executing the operation ACT1, it is possible to have a feeling of expectation of a big hit, and the interest of the game is improved.

  According to the modification 1A, the first effect movable body 300 operates at the first position P1 where the first effect movable body 300 does not enter between the first transparent body 250 and the second transparent body 260, and the first transparent body 250 And a second operation ACT2 operating at a second position P2 entering between the second transmission body 260 and the second transmission body 260. In particular, in the second operation ACT 2, the first effect movable body 300 operates at the second position P 2 where the first effect movable body 300 enters between the first transparent body 250 and the second transparent body 260. Body presentation can be provided. In addition, the light emission modes of the light emitting means (for example, the movable body LEDs 350A, 350B, 350CL, 350CR, 350DL, 350DR, etc.) associated with the first operation ACT1 and the second operation ACT2 are different. For this reason, it is possible to provide a variety of movable object effects. Thereby, the effect of presentation can be improved.

  For example, the second light emission mode (for example, the brightness I2) of the second operation ACT2 is smaller than the first light emission mode (for example, the brightness I1) of the first operation ACT1. For this reason, the glare when the first effect movable body 300 approaches the player can be reduced.

  The second light emission mode (for example, the luminance I2) of the second operation ACT2 may be larger than the first light emission mode (for example, the luminance I1) of the first operation ACT1. In this case, when the first effect movable body 300 approaches the player, dazzling can be made, and a light emitting effect having an impact can be provided.

  In the modification 1A, the first light emission mode and the second light emission mode of the light emitting means (for example, the movable body LEDs 350A, 350B, 350CL, 350CR, 350DL, 350DR, etc.) of the first effect movable body 300 are different in luminance as the second light emission mode. However, at least one of the light amount, the light emission color, the blinking interval, the light emission sequence (for example, the order in which the movable body LEDs 350A, 350B, 350CL, 350CR, 350DL, and 350DR are lighted) may be different.

  Further, as in the modified example 1B shown in FIG. 39C, the first effect movable body 300 is a sound output unit (for example, the speakers 8L, 8R, etc.) accompanying the operation in the first operation ACT1 and the second operation ACT2. The effect sound of may be different. In the first operation ACT1 (movement from the origin position P0 to the first position P1), the effect sound in the first effect sound aspect (for example, the volume Vo1) is output. In the second operation ACT2 (movement from the first position P1 to the second position P2), the effect sound of the second effect sound aspect (for example, the volume Vo2) is output. The volume Vo2 of the second operation ACT2 is larger than the volume Vo1 of the first operation ACT1. Specifically, in the process of S502 of the modification 1B, the CPU for effect control 120 extracts numerical data indicating a random number for movable object effect determination, and determines the extracted numerical data and the movable object effect shown in FIG. 39C. It is sufficient to determine whether or not to execute the movable body effect and, in the case of the presence, using the table for the movement and the operation pattern thereof.

  As shown in FIG. 39 (C), in the case of the super reach A (loss) fluctuation pattern, “No execution” is 15% and “execution is” “first operation pattern PTC-1 (only first operation ACT1)” Is determined with a probability of 55%, and with "execution", "second operation pattern PTC-2 (second operation ACT2 after first operation ACT1)" is determined with a probability of 30%. On the other hand, in the case of the super reach A (big hit) fluctuation pattern, “no execution” is 10%, “on execution” and “first operation pattern PTC-1 (first operation ACT1 only)” is 20%. It is determined by the probability, and the “second operation pattern PTC-2 (the second operation ACT2 after the first operation ACT1)” is determined with the probability of 70% in “execution”. In the case of the big hit, the movable body effect is easier to be executed than in the case of the loss, and it is possible to have a feeling of expectation of the big hit about the movable body effect, and the interest of the game is improved. Moreover, in the case of the super reach A (big hit) fluctuation pattern, the movable body of the “second operation pattern PTC-2 (the second operation ACT2 after the first operation ACT1)” than in the case of the super reach A (loss) fluctuation pattern. The effect is easy to be executed, and the movable object effect in which the first effect movable body 300 executes the second operation ACT2 shown in FIG. 38 can have an expectation of a big hit, and the interest of the game is improved. Also, in the case of the super reach A (big hit) fluctuation pattern, the “first operation pattern PTC-1 (only the first operation ACT1)” is executed, so the first effect movable body 300 is the first shown in FIG. Also with regard to the movable body effect executing the operation ACT1, it is possible to have a feeling of expectation of a big hit, and the interest of the game is improved.

  According to the modification 1B, the first effect movable body 300 operates at the first position P1 in which the first effect movable body 300 does not enter between the first transparent body 250 and the second transparent body 260; And a second operation ACT2 operating at a second position P2 entering between the second transmission body 260 and the second transmission body 260. In particular, in the second operation ACT 2, the first effect movable body 300 operates at the second position P 2 where the first effect movable body 300 enters between the first transparent body 250 and the second transparent body 260. Body presentation can be provided. In addition, the rendering sound of the first operation ACT1 and the second operation ACT2 (for example, the speakers 8L and 8R) differ from each other. For this reason, it is possible to provide a variety of movable object effects. Thereby, the effect of presentation can be improved.

  For example, the effect sound of the second effect sound aspect (for example, volume Vo2) of the second operation ACT2 is larger than the effect sound of the first effect sound aspect (for example, volume Vo1) of the first operation ACT1. Therefore, the second sound close to the player of the first effect movable body 300 can be boosted by the effect sound. For this reason, it is possible to provide a powerful movable object presentation.

  Note that the effect sound of the second effect sound aspect (for example, volume Vo2) of the second operation ACT2 may be smaller than the effect sound of the first effect sound aspect (for example, volume Vo1) of the first operation ACT1. In this case, the second operation ACT 2 itself of the first effect movable body 300 can be made to pay attention to the second operation closer to the player of the first effect movable body 300 by intentionally reducing the effect by the effect sound. For example, the second action ACT2 of the first effect movable body 300 can be focused on by the silence effect. For this reason, it is possible to provide a powerful movable object presentation.

  Although the first operation ACT1 and the second operation ACT2 are different in the volume of the effect sound accompanying the operation in this modification 1B, the present invention is not limited to this. At least one of the volume, the pitch, the tempo, the music, the melody, and the like of the effect sound accompanying the operation may be different between the first operation ACT1 and the second operation ACT2. As an example, as an example in which the music is different, for example, the first effect sound aspect of the first operation ACT1 reproduces the music A at a predetermined volume, and the second effect sound aspect of the second operation ACT2 is a predetermined sound volume of the music B (music It may be played back at the same volume as in A). In addition, as an example in which the music and the volume are different, for example, the first effect sound aspect of the first operation ACT1 is such that the music A is reproduced at the first volume, and the second effect sound aspect of the second operation ACT2 is, for example, the music B is the second The sound may be played back at a volume (a volume different from the first volume at the time of music A).

  As shown in FIGS. 39A to 39C, the first effect movable body 300 executes the second operation ACT2 after the execution of the first operation ACT1, and the second operation ACT2 after the first operation ACT1. Because the degree of expectation (for example, the big hit expectation etc.) controlled to the advantageous state is different between the first operation ACT1 and the second operation ACT2, the movable body effect may be returned. Can make the player pay attention to the player. Thereby, the effect of presentation can be improved. For example, when the second action ACT2 has a higher expectation than the first action ACT1, the second action ACT2 is combined with the action effect at a position closer to the player than the first action ACT1. The effect of the movable object presentation can be enhanced.

  Moreover, as notice effects performed by the CPU 120 for effect control during the fluctuation display of the effect symbols, as shown in FIG. 40 (A), it is possible to execute various advance notice effects at a plurality of timings from the start of the fluctuation It has become. These advance notices include reach notices indicating whether or not to reach, reach development notices indicating whether or not to develop to an advantageous reach, and jackpot notice effects indicating the possibility of a big hit. The movable body effects of the above-described embodiment and modifications may be performed in these advance notice effects.

  As an example of determination of the movable object presentation at the time of reach development notice, as shown in FIG. 40 (B), the effect control CPU 120 extracts numerical data indicating a random number for movable object presentation determination, and the extracted numerical data The operation pattern of the movable body effect may be determined using the movable body effect determination table shown in FIG. 40 (B) and FIG. It should be noted that whether or not the movable body effect is to be performed, and in the case of being performed, the operation pattern may be determined. As shown in FIG. 40 (B), in the case of the super reach variation pattern, "only the first operation ACT1" is determined with a probability of 30%, and "probability of the second operation ACT2 after the first operation ACT1" is 70%. Is determined by In the case of developing into a super reach, the movable body effect of “the second operation ACT2 after the first operation ACT1” is more easily performed than the movable body effect of the “first operation ACT1 only”, and the movable body effect of the first operation ACT1 is Can have a sense of expectation, and the interest of the game is improved.

  For example, as shown in FIG. 41 (A1), normal reach production is started, and an operation promotion image for promoting operation of the stick controller 31A is displayed. When the player operates the stick controller 31A, as shown in FIG. 41 (A2), when it is determined to be the first operation ACT1 using the movable body effect determination table shown in FIG. 40 (B). The effect movable body 300 performs the first operation ACT1 (the first effect movable body 300 shown in FIG. 38 moves from the origin position P0 to the first position P1). When it is determined to be the second operation ACT2 using the movable body effect determination table shown in FIG. 40 (B), the first effect movable body 300 shown in FIG. 41 (A2) performs the first operation ACT1. As shown in FIG. 41 (A3), the second operation ACT2 (the first effect movable body 300 shown in FIG. 38 advances to the second position P2 toward the player) is performed. Then, as shown in FIG. 41 (A4), the super reach development is displayed, and the first effect movable body 300 returns to the origin position P0. In addition, in the case of only the first operation ACT1, it may not be developed into the super reach. Further, in the determination example shown in FIG. 40 (B), a reach development pattern indicating the reach development may be made selectable so that the first effect movable body 300 does not operate.

  As an example of determination of the movable body effect at the time of the big hit, as shown in FIG. 40 (C), the effect control CPU 120 extracts numerical data indicating a random number for movable body effect determination, and The operation pattern of the movable object effect may be determined using the movable object effect determination table shown in FIG. 40 (C). Further, in the case of the super reach A (loss) fluctuation pattern, the movable body effect is not executed. That is, the first effect movable body 300 does not operate, and remains at the origin position P0. On the other hand, in the case of the super reach A (big hit) fluctuation pattern, the movable body effect of “the second operation ACT2 after the first operation ACT1” is executed. As shown in FIG. 38, with regard to the movable object effect that executes the second operation ACT2 after the first effect movable object 300 performs the first operation ACT1, an expectation of a big hit can be possessed, and the first effect movable object 300 is operated If (the second action ACT2 after the first action ACT1), it can be known that a big hit will be made (big hit confirmation notice), and the interest of the game is improved.

  For example, as shown in FIG. 41 (B1), in the movable body effect at the big hit advance notice, a super reach effect is started, and an operation promotion image for promoting the operation of the stick controller 31A in the turning effect is displayed. When the player operates the stick controller 31A, as shown in FIG. 41 (B2), the first effect movable body 300 performs the first operation ACT1 (the first effect movable body 300 shown in FIG. Move to P1). Then, in the case of super reach (big hit) shown in FIG. 40 (C), as shown in FIG. 41 (B3), the first effect movable body 300 performs the second operation ACT2 (first effect movable body 300 shown in FIG. 38). Makes the second position P2) toward the player. Then, as shown in FIG. 41 (B4), a big hit is displayed, and the first effect movable body 300 returns to the origin position P0. On the other hand, in the case of the super reach (losing) shown in FIG. 40C, the first effect movable body 300 does not operate, and as shown in FIG. 41B5, the first effect movable body 300 is at the origin position P0. While stopped at, the display is lost. That is, in the movable body effect at the time of the big hit notice, if the first effect movable body 300 is operated (the second action ACT2 after the first action ACT1), it can be known that a big hit will be made (big hit final notice).

  In FIG. 41 (B1), the stick controller 31A is operated when the first effect movable body 300 is at the origin position P0, but as shown in FIG. 41 (B2), the first effect movable body 300 is the first After moving to the first position P1, an operation effect that causes the second effect ACT2 of the first effect movable body 300 to be executed may be executable based on an operation of the stick controller 31A. For example, “do not operate” illustrated in FIG. 40C may be set to “only the first operation”. In this case, it is possible to provide an operation effect that the first effect movable body 300 executes the second operation ACT2 based on the detection of the player's operation. That is, the player can be watched as to whether or not the first effect movable body 300 at the first position P1 moves to the second position P2, and the player can be made to participate in the game, and the fun of the game can be made. It can be improved.

  Also, at the first timing and the second timing in the variable display (variable display), an execution ratio at which only the first operation ACT1 is executed, and an execution ratio at which the second operation ACT2 is executed after the execution of the first operation ACT1. May be different. For example, only the first operation ACT1 is executed at the execution timing (first timing) of the reach development notice shown in FIG. 40A and the execution timing (second timing) of the big hit notice shown in FIG. 40A. The execution rate is set to be different from the execution rate at which the second operation ACT2 is executed after the execution of the first operation ACT1. In this case, the interest of the game can be improved. Further, both execution rates may be made different at a plurality of timings in a predetermined advance notice (for example, a reach development advance notice).

  Further, in the above embodiment, although a part of the main body 302 moved by the second control is the first projecting part 303 or the second projecting part 304 which protrudes from the inside of the main body 302, the present embodiment has been described. The invention is not limited to this, and in the movable body, a portion (predetermined portion) or a portion thereof positioned on the first transmission body side with respect to the second transmission body via the hole by the first control is the second In the control, it may move in a direction different from the moving direction in the first control. That is, the part operating in the second control is not limited to the part that performs the protruding operation, and may be movable by slide movement, rotation, or the like. In addition, if the moving direction of the predetermined part of the movable body is different from the moving direction of the movable body in the first control, it can be freely changed, for example, in the left, right, upper, lower, diagonal directions.

  In the embodiment, only the predetermined part (front half) of the main body 302 is positioned on the front side of the rear transmission plate 261 when the first effect movable body 300 moves to the first effect position. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the entire first effect movable body 300 may be positioned on the front side of the rear transmission plate 261.

  In the above embodiment, the first effect movable body 300, which is an example of the movable body, has been illustrated as sliding in a forward and downward direction from the first standby position toward the first effect position. It may move horizontally from the first standby position toward the first effect position to the front side, or may move to the front upper side, the front left side, the front right side or the like. That is, it may be provided so as to be movable from the rear side to the front side of the rear transmission plate 261. Moreover, as long as it moves to the front side, it may move to the front side by turning instead of sliding movement.

  Moreover, in the said embodiment, the 1st presentation movable body 300 which is an example of a movable body illustrated the form arrange | positioned so that a front may be located ahead rather than the back permeation | transmission board 261 in a 1st standby position. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the whole in the first standby position may be disposed behind the rear transmission plate 261.

  Moreover, in the said embodiment, when only the 1st presentation movable body 300 moved to the 1st presentation position, the predetermined part of the main-body part 302 illustrated the form located in the front side rather than the back permeation | transmission board 261, The invention is not limited to this, and a plurality of movable bodies such as the second effect movable body 400, the third effect movable bodies 500L and 500R, and the fourth effect movable bodies 600L and 600R are moved to the effect position. The part may be located on the front side of the rear transmission plate 261.
