Description

従来、複数の設定値のうちのいずれかに設定可能であり、設定された設定値にもとづいて遊技者にとって有利な有利状態の制御を実行可能なパチンコ遊技機があった。このようなパチンコ遊技機において、設定値を確認するための設定確認処理では、実行中のメイン処理が全て終了したときにしか次の処理へ移行できなかった（例えば、特許文献１参照）。Conventionally, there has been a pachinko gaming machine that can be set to any of a plurality of set values and can control an advantageous state that is advantageous to the player based on the set set value. In such a pachinko gaming machine, in the setting confirmation process for confirming the set value, the process can be shifted to the next process only when all the main processes being executed are completed (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

しかしながら、特許文献１にあっては、設定確認をすぐに行いたい状況のときに、実行中の全ての処理が終わるまで待たねばならず、好適に設定確認作業を実行することできないという問題がある。However, Patent Document 1 has a problem that when it is desired to confirm the setting immediately, it is necessary to wait until all the processing being executed is completed, and the setting confirmation work cannot be appropriately executed. ..

本発明は、このような問題点に着目してなされたもので、好適に設定確認作業を実行することができる遊技機を提供することを目的とする。The present invention has been made by paying attention to such a problem, and an object of the present invention is to provide a game machine capable of suitably performing a setting confirmation operation.

前記有利状態判定手段によって前記有利状態に制御すると判定されたことにもとづいて前記有利状態に制御可能な遊技制御手段（例えば、ＣＰＵ１０３が図５に示す特別図柄プロセス処理を実行する遊技制御用マイクロコンピュータ１００）と、
を備え、
前記有利状態判定値の数が設定値に応じて異なることにより、前記有利状態に制御される確率が異なり（例えば、図８−１１〜図８−２０に示すように、設定されている設定値に応じて大当り判定値の数が異なることにより、大当り遊技状態に制御される確率が異なる部分）、
前記有利状態判定値は、所定の数値範囲において、前記設定手段にて設定可能な前記複数段階の設定値で共通の共通数値範囲（例えば、１０２０〜１２３７の範囲である大当り判定値の共通数値範囲）が少なくとも設定されており、
前記有利設定値の前記有利状態判定値は、所定の数値範囲において、前記共通数値範囲と、前記不利設定値の前記有利状態判定値では設定されていない非共通数値範囲（例えば、１２３８〜各設定値に応じた値までの範囲である大当り判定値の非共通数値範囲）とを含んで設定されており、
前記共通数値範囲と前記非共通数値範囲とは、所定基準値から連続した数値範囲となるように設定されており（例えば、図８−１７及び図８−１８に示すように、大当りの数値範囲は、通常状態であるか確変状態であるかにかかわらず１０２０を大当り基準値とした連続した数値範囲として設定されている部分）、
さらに、
前記遊技制御手段は、前記有利状態として、第１有利状態（例えば、１６ラウンド大当り、確変大当り）と、前記第１有利状態よりも遊技者にとって不利な第２有利状態（例えば、６ラウンド大当り、通常大当り）との少なくともいずれかに制御可能であり、

前記第１有利状態の前記終了時演出期間において実行可能な複数種類の終了時演出のうちから前記終了時演出実行手段によって実行される終了時演出の選択を、遊技者から受付け可能な終了時演出受付手段（例えば、演出制御用ＣＰＵ１２０、スティックコントローラ３１Ａ、プッシュボタン３１Ｂ。設定用の他の操作部であってもよい。図１１−１９のステップＳ７５２Ａ、図１１−２０、図１１−２１のステップＳ７８４。選択を受付け可能な期間としては、終了時演出期間の前半であってもよいし、大当りのラウンドの後半であってもよい。具体的には、１６Ｒ大当りにおいて、１３Ｒの開始コマンドを受信してから１６Ｒの終了コマンドを受信するまでの期間であってもよい。）をさらに備える
ことを特徴としている。
この特徴によれば、有利状態に制御するか否かの判定を行う処理負荷を低減することができる。また、このような構成によれば、有利状態に制御されている期間を長くできるため、有利状態の単位期間当りに遊技者に付与される遊技価値を低減させることができる。
このため、射幸性が高くなり過ぎてしまうことを防止できる。また、有利状態の終了時に実行される終了時演出を遊技者が選択できる。このため、有利状態の終了時の期間が長くなることによる間延びによって遊技の興趣が低下することを低減できる。 The gaming machine according to the present invention includes a setting means (for example, a portion where the CPU 103 executes a set value change process) capable of setting a set value related to a probability of being controlled in the advantageous state (for example, a jackpot game state).

(For example, the portion where the CPU 103 executes the special symbol normal processing shown in FIGS. 8-41) and the advantageous state determining means for determining
A game control microcomputer capable of controlling the advantageous state based on the determination that the advantageous state is controlled by the advantageous state determination means (for example, a game control microcomputer in which the CPU 103 executes the special symbol process process shown in FIG. 100) and
With
Since the number of the advantageous state determination values is different depending on the set value, the probability of being controlled to the advantageous state is different (for example, as shown in FIGS. 8-11 to 8-20, the set value is set. The probability of being controlled to the jackpot game state differs depending on the number of jackpot determination values),
The advantageous state determination value is a common numerical range common to the set values of the plurality of stages that can be set by the setting means in a predetermined numerical range (for example, a common numerical range of jackpot determination values in the range of 1020 to 1237). ) Is set at least
The advantageous state determination value of the advantageous setting value is a non-common numerical range (for example, 1238 to 1238 to each setting) that is not set in the common numerical range and the advantageous state determination value of the disadvantage setting value in a predetermined numerical range. It is set including the non-common numerical range of the jackpot judgment value, which is the range up to the value according to the value.

The period in which the selection can be accepted may be the first half of the production period at the end or the second half of the jackpot round. Specifically, in the 16R jackpot, the 13R start command is received. It may be a period from the time of the operation until the end command of 16R is received.).
According to this feature, it is possible to reduce the processing load for determining whether or not to control in an advantageous state. Further, according to such a configuration, since the period controlled in the advantageous state can be lengthened, the game value given to the player per unit period in the advantageous state can be reduced.
Therefore, it is possible to prevent the gambling from becoming too high. In addition, the player can select the end-time effect to be executed at the end of the advantageous state. Therefore, it is possible to reduce the decrease in the interest of the game due to the extension due to the lengthening of the period at the end of the advantageous state.
