Description

パチンコ機やパチスロ機などの遊技機では、所定の開始条件の成立を契機として主制御装置が実行した抽選の結果に基づいて遊技者に遊技価値を付与する。また、特許文献１には、実際の遊技におけるベース値を計算し、入賞に基づいて排出される賞球数を可変制御する遊技機が記載されている。In gaming machines such as pachinko machines and pachislot machines, game value is given to the player based on the result of a lottery executed by the main control device when a predetermined start condition is satisfied. Further, Patent Document 1 describes a game machine that calculates a base value in an actual game and variably controls the number of prize balls discharged based on a prize.

通常、ベース値は遊技場管理装置（いわゆる、ホールコンピュータ）で管理され、計算されたベース値を個々の遊技機に表示することは考慮されていない。このため、ベース値を迅速（リアルタイム）かつ正確に表示するための工夫が求められている。Normally, the base value is managed by a game hall management device (so-called hall computer), and it is not considered to display the calculated base value on each game machine. Therefore, a device for displaying the base value quickly (real time) and accurately is required.

そこで、本発明は、遊技に関する情報（例えば、付与される遊技価値に関する情報）を算出し表示するためのメモリの制御方法を提案することを目的とする。
Therefore, an object of the present invention is to propose a memory control method for calculating and displaying information on a game (for example, information on a game value to be given).

上記課題を解決するために、本発明は、以下の構成を採用する。遊技者に遊技価値として賞遊技媒体を付与するとともに遊技機の消費電力を通常時よりも低減する低電力モードへの遷移を可能とする遊技機であって、遊技の進行を制御する主制御手段と、遊技の進行に伴い演出装置を制御する演出制御手段と、遊技者が消費した消費遊技媒体を計数する消費遊技媒体計数手段と、遊技者に付与する賞遊技媒体を計数する賞遊技媒体計数手段と、前記計数された消費遊技媒体数と賞遊技媒体数とを用いて、付与された遊技価値に関する情報を算出する算出手段と、前記主制御手段に制御され、前記遊技価値に関する情報を発光体を用いて表示する遊技機性能表示手段とを有し、前記主制御手段は、遊技制御のための処理を実行する制御装置と、前記処理の実行時に前記制御装置がアクセスし、少なくとも前記遊技価値に関する情報を記憶するメモリとを有し、前記遊技機には、前記メモリの初期化を指示するための入力手段が設けられ、前記主制御手段は、所定のタイミングで、前記メモリに格納されたデータが正常か否かを判定し、異常であると判定された場合、前記メモリの所定の第１の領域を初期化する第１の初期化手段と、電源投入時において、前記入力手段が操作されているか否かを判定し、操作されていると判定された場合、前記メモリの所定の第２の領域を初期化する第２の初期化手段とを有し、前記第１の初期化手段により初期化される第１の領域と前記第２の初期化手段により初期化される第２の領域とは、前記第１の初期化手段によっても前記第２の初期化手段によっても共通して初期化される重複領域を含み、少なくとも前記第１の領域は、前記第２の領域と重複しない領域を含み、前記遊技価値に関する情報は、前記重複領域以外の前記第１の領域に格納させ、前記低電力モードへ遷移すると、演出に用いる発光体の輝度を低減させるものの、前記遊技機性能表示手段の発光体の輝度は低減させることなく維持させることで遊技機で消費される電力を通常よりも低減させるものであり、前記遊技機には、複数のエラー状態を備え、前記複数のエラー状態は、前記遊技価値が付与されない状態となる所定のエラー状態を含み、前記算出手段は、前記所定のエラー状態となることで前記遊技価値が付与されない状態であっても、付与される前記遊技価値に関する情報を算出可能とすることを特徴とする遊技機。
In order to solve the above problems, the present invention adopts the following configuration. A game machine that imparts a prize game medium as a game value to a player and enables a transition to a low power mode in which the power consumption of the game machine is reduced compared to normal times, and is a main control means for controlling the progress of the game. A production control means for controlling the effect device as the game progresses, a consumption game medium counting means for counting the consumed game medium consumed by the player, and a prize game medium counting means for counting the prize game medium given to the player. Using the means, the counted number of consumed game media and the number of prize game media, a calculation means for calculating information on the given game value, and the main control means control the information on the game value to emit light. It has a game machine performance display means for displaying using a body, and the main control means is accessed by a control device that executes a process for game control and the control device at the time of executing the process, and at least the game. The game machine has an input means for instructing the initialization of the memory, and the main control means is stored in the memory at a predetermined timing. It is determined whether or not the data is normal, and if it is determined to be abnormal, the first initialization means for initializing a predetermined first area of the memory and the input means when the power is turned on It has a second initialization means for initializing a predetermined second area of the memory when it is determined whether or not the memory is being operated, and when it is determined that the memory is being operated, the first initialization is performed. The first region initialized by the means and the second region initialized by the second initialization means are common to both the first initialization means and the second initialization means. The first region includes a region that does not overlap with the second region, and information on the game value is stored in the first region other than the overlapping region. When the mode shifts to the low power mode, the brightness of the light emitter used for the effect is reduced, but the brightness of the light emitter of the game machine performance display means is maintained without being reduced, so that the power consumed by the game machine is usually reduced. The game machine is provided with a plurality of error states, the plurality of error states include a predetermined error state in which the game value is not given, and the calculation means is described as described above. A game machine characterized in that it is possible to calculate information regarding the game value to be given even if the game value is not given due to a predetermined error state.
