Abstract

To allow a player to estimate a setting value on the basis of an occurrence situation of a jackpot in a so-called continuous winning state in which a special state occurs continuously.SOLUTION: A game information display device 3 excludes the number of jackpot lottery times (the number of pattern variation times) during a special state signal output period immediately before returning to a normal state when calculating a jackpot winning probability in a special state of a probability variable state or a time-shortening state. Accordingly, even if a special state signal is common to the probability variable state and the time-shortening state, precision of a jackpot winning probability by a lottery in the probability variable state can be enhanced by excluding the number of jackpot lottery times in the time-shortening state as much as possible.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1

Description

The present invention relates to a game information display system.

In a conventional game hall, for example, as described in Patent Document 1, various game information for a player to estimate whether a set value of a jackpot probability is high or low is displayed. The player estimates a game machine having a high set value by referring to such game information, which is one of the real pleasures of playing a game.

Japanese Patent No. 4379950

By the way, the game specifications of recent game machines are becoming more complicated and diversified, and simply displaying the number of big hits and the number of big hit lottery gives the player sufficient information for estimating the set value. There are circumstances in which it cannot be done.

The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and an object of the present invention is a game in which a player can estimate a set value based on a jackpot occurrence situation in a so-called continuous chan state in which special states occur continuously. The purpose is to provide an information display system.

According to the invention of claim 1, when calculating the jackpot winning probability in the special state (probability change state or time saving state), the number of jackpot lottery (number of symbol fluctuations) in the special state signal output period immediately before returning to the normal state is calculated. Since it is excluded, even if the special state signal is common to the first special state and the second special state, the number of jackpot lottery in the first special state is excluded as much as possible and the lottery has a high probability. It is possible to improve the accuracy of the jackpot winning probability.

The set value operation unit 29 selects a set value of a plurality of stages for setting the lottery probability of the special figure, and in the present embodiment, the set values 1 to 3 are selected and activated. The power supply circuit unit 30 supplies operating power to the entire game machine 1 including the main control unit 23.

Here, the flow of the game will be described.
The initial state is the normal state, and when a big hit is won in the normal state, the state shifts to the big hit state after the big hit symbol is displayed. In the case of a probability change jackpot, it shifts to the probability change state after the jackpot state ends. In the case of a non-probability change jackpot, the time is shortened after the jackpot state ends.

The probabilistic state continues until the next jackpot is won, the time saving state continues until the symbol change is executed up to 100 times, and then the normal state is entered. If you win a prize in the normal figure start port 13 in the normal state, the probability change state, and the time saving state, the normal figure will be displayed in a variable manner over a predetermined time, and then if you win the general figure lottery, the electric accessory of the special figure 2 start port 15 will be displayed. It is opened to enable winning of the special figure 2 starting port 15. After executing the symbol variation for the time determined by the lottery, "○" is displayed on the normal figure display unit 18 when winning and "x" is displayed when not winning.

The fluctuation time of the normal figure is set to 60 seconds in the normal state and 2 seconds in the probabilistic state and the time saving state. When a jackpot is won in the probability change state or the time saving state, the jackpot symbol is displayed and then the jackpot state is entered. In the probabilistic state and the time saving state, the winning rate to the special drawing 2 starting port 15 increases, so that the ball ejection rate becomes higher than in the normal state. The symbol variation time is a minimum of 2 seconds to a maximum of 60 seconds. In the probabilistic state and the time saving state, the selection rate of the short symbol fluctuation time increases. The symbol variation display for the effect is executed in synchronization with the symbol variation of the special figure 1 display unit 16 and the special figure 2 display unit 17.

The liquid crystal display unit 12 displays the effect screen in synchronization with the symbol variation of the special figure 1 display unit 16 and the special figure 2 display unit 17.
FIG. 4 shows an effect screen in a normal state. On the production screen, the design for the production is displayed in a variable manner. The symbols for the production are the symbols corresponding to Special Figure 1 and Special Figure 2, and are three-digit Arabic numerals. The probability variation jackpot symbols are 111, 333, 555, 777, 999, and the non-probability variation jackpot symbols are 000, 222, 444, 666, 888. The number of reserved balls is displayed in the lower right corner of the production screen, and the number on the left side of the two digits corresponds to Special Figure 1 and the number on the right side corresponds to Special Figure 2.
On the other hand, FIG. 5 shows an effect screen in a probabilistic state. On the production screen, "Probability changing!" Is displayed indicating that the state is in the probable change state.

The game machine 1 operates as follows.
When the special figure 1 start port 14 is won (the lottery start condition is satisfied), the random number extraction unit 38 draws one of the random numbers generated by the random number generation unit 37, and the special figure 1 lottery is executed and the symbol of the special figure 1 is executed. Start fluctuating. When a prize is won in the normal figure start port 13, one of the random numbers generated by the random number generation unit 37 is drawn by the random number extraction unit 38, and the normal figure display unit 18 starts the symbol change of the normal figure. ..

When the general drawing lottery is won, the winning symbol is displayed on the general drawing display unit 18 and the electric accessory of the special drawing 2 starting port 15 is opened to increase the probability of winning the special drawing 2 starting opening 15. When the special figure 2 start port 15 is won, the special figure 2 lottery in which one of the random numbers generated by the random number generation unit 37 is drawn by the random number extraction unit 38 is executed, and the symbol variation of the special figure 2 is started. When the lottery results of both Special Figure 1 and Special Figure 2 are stored, priority is given to digesting from Special Figure 2. In the special figure 1 lottery, a 6R jackpot will be drawn, and in the special figure 2 lottery, a 10R jackpot and a 1R jackpot will be drawn.

The gaming state of the game machine 1 includes a normal state, a jackpot state (probability change / non-probability change), a probability change state, and a time saving state. If the above-mentioned special figure 1 lottery or special figure 2 lottery is won, a big hit state is generated for the number of rounds. .. In the jackpot state, the winning symbol is displayed on the special figure 1 display unit 16 or the special figure 2 display unit 17, and the large winning opening 19 is opened for the number of rounds, and the opening for the number of rounds is completed (the end condition is satisfied). End the jackpot state. The opening time of one big prize opening 19 is 30 seconds at the maximum, and it closes when 10 prizes are won.

The game machine 1 stores the current game state in the RAM 23c, and when the CPU 23a executes the program stored in the ROM 23b, the game state is changed by storing the current game state in the RAM 23c. ..

The following game signals (game information) are transmitted from the signal output unit 39 (signal output means) of the game machine 1 to the relay device 4 according to the operating status.
Game medium consumption signal: Signal indicating the number of game media consumed in the game Game medium grant signal: Signal indicating the number of game media granted by winning a prize Symbol variation signal (lottery signal): Number of executed symbol variations Signal to indicate Jackpot signal: Signal to indicate jackpot state Special state signal: Signal to indicate that it is in a probabilistic state or a time saving state These game signals are generally different depending on the model.

As shown in FIG. 2, the lending device 2 receives an operation input from a state display unit 40 indicating the current operating state (normal state, error state, etc.), a bill insertion slot 41 into which bills are inserted, and a player.

It has a counting tray 47 and the like located below.

The upper tray 21 of the game machine 1 is provided with a lending button 48 and a return button 49, and the lending device 2 executes a lending process in response to an operation on the lending button 48, and a card in response to an operation on the return button 49. Execute the issue process. Specifically, the lending device 2 performs lending processing of balls (game medium) within the range of the deposit balance, and also accepts balls (game value) paid out from the lower tray 22 of the game machine 1 and counts them as possessed balls. The deposit balance and the number of balls held (counted balls) are recorded on a general card or a membership card (in the case of a membership card, only the deposit balance is recorded and the number of balls held is stored in the management device 5) and issued. To do.

When a general card is accepted, the deposit balance and the number of balls held will be displayed, and the loan will be returned within the range. When the membership card is accepted, the deposit balance is displayed, the number of balls held and the number of stored balls stored in the management device 5 are displayed on condition that the PIN is authenticated, and the loan / return process is performed within those ranges.

The lending device 2 operates as follows in the online state with the management device 5.
(1) When a deposit is made to the bill slot 41 with the card not inserted, the general card stored in the card stock section is taken out to the card reader / writer (neither shown) and the deposit amount (1000 yen). The unit) is memorized, the deposit amount (payment balance) is displayed on the liquid crystal display unit 42, and then the number of balls corresponding to one frequency (500 yen) is automatically paid out from the payout mechanism inside the game machine 1.

At this time, since a signal indicating that the ball for one frequency has been paid out is transmitted from the game machine 1 to the lending device 2, the amount equivalent to one frequency (500 yen) from the deposit balance displayed on the liquid crystal display 42. ) Is reduced and a sales signal is sent. Since one pulse is transmitted to this sales signal for each payout of the ball, the management device 5 specifies one pulse as the sales amount for 500 yen.

(2) In response to the operation of the lending button 48 provided on the game machine 1, a number of balls equivalent to one frequency (500 yen) is paid out from the payout mechanism inside the game machine 1 and the deposit balance is paid out within the range of the deposit balance. To update.

(4) Depending on the operation of the payout button 43, the number of balls to be counted (the number of balls held) or the number of stored balls (in the case of a member) is paid out once.

(5) The deposit balance and the number of balls held are recorded in a general card inserted in the card insertion slot 46 and issued according to the operation (return operation) for the return button 49 provided in the game machine 1. If a membership card is inserted, the deposit balance is recorded on the membership card and the number of balls held is transmitted to the management device 5, and then the membership card is issued. When issuing a card, the issuance information is transmitted to the management device 5 and stored on the management device 5 side as well.

If neither a general card nor a membership card is inserted in the card insertion slot 46, the general card stocked in the card stock section is drawn out (set) to the card reader / writer to record the deposit balance and the number of balls held. Issuance. If both the deposit balance and the number of balls held are zero when the general card is inserted, the general card set in the card reader / writer is collected in the card stock section. On the other hand, the membership card is retained as it is even if the deposit balance and the number of balls held are zero.

(6) When the general card is inserted into the card insertion slot 46, the deposit balance and the number of balls held on the general card are read out by the card reader / writer and displayed on the liquid crystal display unit 42. When the membership card is inserted, the deposit balance recorded on the membership card is read out and displayed on the liquid crystal display 42, and the number of stored balls stored in the membership account of the management device 5 on condition that the PIN is authenticated ( The number of balls stored on the day (the number of balls stored the day before) is displayed.

The number of balls stored on the day is the number of balls stored on the day, and the number of balls stored the day before is the number of balls stored up to the previous day. After the business is closed, the number of balls stored on the day will be added to the number of balls stored the day before and stored. According to the operation (refund operation) on the payout button 43 by the player, the number of balls held or the number of stored balls is paid out from the payout nozzle 44 within the range of the number of balls held or the number of stored balls, and the number of balls held or the number of stored balls is updated.

(7) The command from the employee remote controller is received (received) by the remote controller light receiving unit 45, and various processes (error cancellation, etc.) are executed according to the command content.
(8) It is possible to read out the card issuance history during the day and display it on the liquid crystal display unit 42 according to the operation by the employee.

The game information display device 3 receives the operation information from the game machine 1 via the relay device 4 to create and display various game information, and displays various information received from the management device 5.
As shown in FIG. 6, the game information display device 3 switches the type of game information displayed on the lamp unit 50, the liquid crystal display unit 51, the call button 52 for calling an employee, the liquid crystal display unit 51, and the like. It has an operation button group 53, a remote controller light receiving unit 54 that receives (receives) a signal from an employee remote controller, and the like. The liquid crystal display unit 51 can display various game information according to the operation of the operation button group 53.

FIG. 6 shows an example of the basic game information screen by the liquid crystal display unit 51, and displays the following game information.
Number of jackpots (on the day, the day before, the day before)
Number of first hits (same day, previous day, two days before) = number of big hits in normal state Breakdown of big hits (super = 10R, small = 6R, 1R)
Number of starts (Switches between the number of symbol changes since the end of the latest jackpot and the cumulative number of symbol changes on the day)
Record high number of balls (maximum number of difference balls in one business day for the model)
Bar graph of the number of jackpot starts (for the last 7 times)

FIG. 7 is a functional block diagram showing the electrical configuration of the game information display device 3. The game information display device 3 has a control unit 55 (calculation means, storage means) composed of a microcomputer having a CPU 55a, a ROM 55b, a RAM 55c, and an I / O 55d, and a peripheral portion connected to the control unit 55. As peripheral parts, a transmission / reception unit 56 that transmits / receives various signals and various information to / from the lamp unit 50, the liquid crystal display unit 51 (display means), the call button 52, the operation button group 53, the remote control light receiving unit 54, and the relay device 4. Is provided. The control unit 55 controls the entire operation of the game information display device 3 based on the computer program stored in the ROM 55b or the like.
The player can confirm the basic game information as in the conventional case by confirming the basic game information screen shown in FIG.

By the way, although the player enjoys the game while guessing the set value set in the game machine 1, it is not easy for the beginner player, and not everyone can enjoy the act of guessing the set value. Since there is no such situation, the game information display device 3 has a set value estimation function. In order to realize this set value estimation function, the management device 5 transmits various operation setting information including the spec information of the game machine 1 to each game information display device 3 at the start of business, for example, and the game information display device. 3 stores the received operation setting information.

FIG. 8 shows the theoretical values of the jackpot lottery probability and the ball output rate of the pachinko gaming machine as the operation setting information. For example, in the normal state (big hit probability (low)) in which the special figure 2 starting port 15 is closed and winning only the special figure 1 starting port 14 is valid, the jackpot probability increases as the set value increases. In the case of a probabilistic state (big hit probability (high)) in which the special figure 2 starting port 15 is started and the winning of the special figure 2 starting port 15 is effective in addition to the winning of the special figure 1 starting port 14, the same applies. The larger the set value, the higher the jackpot probability.
FIG. 9 shows the breakdown of the jackpot, and shows the theoretical game information corresponding to the special figures 1 and 2.

Now, when the player wants to estimate the set value of the game machine 1, he presses down the "setting estimation" button provided in the operation button group 53 of the game information display device 3.
The game information display device 3 switches from the basic game information screen to the comprehensive evaluation chart in response to the operation of the "setting guess" button. In the comprehensive evaluation chart, as setting estimation information, a plurality of types of game information that theoretically differ according to the set value are calculated and displayed.

FIG. 10 shows the comprehensive evaluation chart 57. The radar chart 58 is mainly displayed on the comprehensive evaluation chart 57. The radar chart 58 displays game information that theoretically differs depending on the set value in a chart format so that it can be compared with the theoretical value for each set value of the game information.

The game information displayed in the chart format is as follows.
(1) First hit probability: Big hit probability in normal state (low probability) (2) Average number of continuations: Number of big hits that occurred from the occurrence of big hit in normal state to the return to normal state (3) Average number of balls acquired: Number of balls acquired from the occurrence of a jackpot in the normal state to the return to the normal state (4) Chance medium jackpot probability (big hit probability in the estimated probability variation state, special jackpot occurrence probability): probability variation state Jackpot probability in (high probability) and time saving state (low probability)

The radar chart 58 is displayed in five stages, and the maximum value 5 on the axis of the corresponding game information is set as the theoretical value of setting 3, and the intermediate value 2.5 is set as the theoretical value of setting 2, which is the lowest value. After setting 0 as the theoretical value of setting 1, the actual value is plotted on the axis to display the quadrangle 59. If the actual value exceeds the theoretical value of setting 3, the corresponding vertex of the quadrangle 59 protrudes from the outer edge of the radar chart 58.

As a display example of the radar chart 58, in the case of the jackpot probability (low) (first hit probability) shown in FIG. 8, theoretically, setting 1 is 1 / 319.7, setting 2 is 1 / 284.9, and setting 3 Is 1 / 322.4. In this case, the intervals of the numerical values corresponding to the settings 1 to 3 are non-uniform, but in the radar chart 58, the settings 1 to 3 on the axis are corrected so as to be evenly spaced, and the actual values are shown on the axis. I try to plot.

For example, as shown in FIG. 11, when the actual value of the initial hit probability is between the theoretical value corresponding to the setting 1 and the theoretical value corresponding to the setting 2, the theoretical value corresponding to the setting 1 and the setting 2 are set. The actual value is shown at the position where it becomes the corresponding value by evenly dividing it from the corresponding theoretical value. This is because it is not necessary for the player who wants to estimate the set value to grasp the detailed values of the theoretical value and the actual value, and it is sufficient if the magnitude relationship between the two can be grasped.

As shown in FIG. 10, the radar chart 58 is provided one day ago, two days ago, and three days ago, and the quadrangle 59 is colored in three stages according to the area of the quadrangle 59 surrounded by the actual value (blue (FIG. 10). Change in (indicated by right diagonal line) → green (indicated by left diagonal line) → rainbow (indicated by mesh)). Therefore, as shown in FIG. 10, when the quadrangle 59 one day ago is displayed in rainbow colors, it is highly possible that the setting for the day is also setting 3, so that the expectation of a big hit increases.

By the way, when calculating the chance medium jackpot probability, it is desirable that the number of jackpot lottery (number of symbol fluctuations) is only the number of jackpot lottery in the probabilistic state, but as described above, the special state signal is common to the probabilistic state or the time saving state. It is an output signal, and the probability change state cannot be determined. For this reason, since the number of jackpot lottery when calculating the chance medium jackpot probability includes the number of jackpot lottery in a time-saving state, the chance medium jackpot probability becomes lower than the original probability and the reliability of the data decreases. There is a risk of

However, since the special state signal output period immediately before returning to the normal state can determine the time saving state, the game information display device 3 has a chance to exclude the number of jackpot lottery in the special state signal output period immediately before returning to the normal state. After calculating the medium-big hit probability, the quadrangle 59 shown in FIG. 10 is displayed.

For example, as shown in FIG. 12, a jackpot 1 occurs in a normal state, and then a continuous chan state of a special state 1, a jackpot 2, a special state 2, a jackpot 3, and a special state 3 occurs and then returns to the normal state. Assuming that the case is assumed, the jackpot probability during the chance is 2 jackpots / the number of symbol fluctuations in the special state. In this case, although it is not possible to specify whether the special state 1 and the special state 2 which are the special state signal output periods are the probabilistic state or the time saving state, the special state 3 which is the special state signal output period immediately before returning to the normal state is Since it can be determined that the time is shortened, the accuracy of the chance medium jackpot probability can be improved by excluding the number of jackpot lottery in the special state 3.

According to such an embodiment, the following effects can be obtained.
When calculating the jackpot winning probability in the special state of the probability change state or the time saving state, the game information display device 3 excludes the number of jackpot lottery (number of symbol fluctuations) in the special state signal output period immediately before returning to the normal state. Therefore, even if the special state signal is common to the probability change state and the time saving state, the accuracy of the jackpot winning probability by the lottery in the probability change state should be improved by excluding the number of jackpot lottery in the time saving state as much as possible. Can be done.
