In addition, the embodiments for carrying out the invention described later include the invention relating to the game machine of the following means 1. 2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, some pachinko machines and slot machines, which are examples of game machines, are provided with electronic components such as display means such as a liquid crystal display and light emission means such as LEDs (light emitting diodes). As a game machine of this type, for example, as disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2007-296205, it includes a game board and a display device arranged away from the game board on the back side. In some cases, the inside of the game machine is prevented from being exposed through a gap formed between the back surface of the game board and the display part of the display device by providing an opaque frame member in the inside of the game machine. However, in such a game machine, in order to prevent the appearance of the game machine from being spoiled by making electronic parts such as display means and light emitting means visible to the player, it is necessary to secure these electronic parts to the player by means of a frame member. Although it is necessary to install it inside the game machine where it cannot be seen from the outside, there is a problem that the placement position of the electronic parts is restricted, so the degree of freedom in design cannot be increased. There is a demand for providing a game machine that can increase the degree of freedom in design without spoiling the appearance of the game machine.
The gaming machine described in means 1 is
A gaming machine capable of playing games (for example, pachinko gaming machine 75SG001),
Electronic components (for example, LED boards 303, 403, 603, 803) provided so as to be visible to the player;
a specific member (for example, base members 301, 401, 601, 801) provided around the electronic component and formed in a color similar to that of the electronic component;
a light-transmitting member (e.g., cover members 302, 402, 602, 802) which is a light-transmitting member and is provided so that a player can visually recognize the electronic component and the specific member through the member;
a display means (for example, an image display device 5);
with
The translucent member (for example, the cover member 302) has a decorative pattern (for example, a decorative pattern 331) formed so as to straddle the electronic component (for example, the LED substrate 303) and the specific member (for example, the base member 301). ) (see FIGS. 10-12),
The electronic component (e.g., LED board 303) is provided at a position further away from the display means than the specific member (e.g., upper portion of base member 301),
moreover,
Sound output means capable of outputting dramatic sound (for example, IC079SG132 for voice synthesis mounted on speakers 8L and 8R and voice control board 13, voice data ROM079SG133, amplifier circuit 079SG134);
Display means (for example, image display device 5) capable of displaying effect moving images;
Effect executing means (for example, Production control CPU 120) and
with
The production executing means is
In the first period of the predetermined effect, the effect moving image whose progress speed of the effect is the first speed can be displayed on the display means (for example, as shown in FIGS. 15-19 to 15-25, the first reach During the execution period of the first half of each of the production, the second ready-to-reach production, the third ready-to-reach production, and the fourth ready-to-reach production, the animation of each ready-to-reach production is displayed on the image display device 5 at the progress speed V1),
In the second period of the predetermined effect after the first period, the display means can display the effect moving image in which the progress speed of the effect is a second speed slower than the first speed (for example, FIG. 15 -19 to Figure 15-25, during the second half execution period of each of the first reach effect, the second reach effect, the third reach effect, and the fourth reach effect, the animation of each reach effect moves to the progress speed V2 the part displayed on the image display device 5),
Regarding the effect sound corresponding to the predetermined effect, the speed of the effect sound can be output by the sound output means at the same speed in both the first period and the second period (for example, FIG. 15- 19 to FIGS. 15-25, during the execution period of the first half of the first reach effect, the second reach effect, the third reach effect, and the fourth reach effect, and during the execution period of the latter half of each, the speakers 8L and 8R (The part where BGM and production sounds are output at V4, which is the normal playback speed)
It is characterized by
According to this feature, even if the electronic parts are arranged so as to be visible to the player, the decoration pattern makes the electronic parts inconspicuous, so that the degree of freedom in design can be increased. In addition, the electronic parts are located away from the display means that the player pays attention to, so they are less conspicuous. Further, although the progress speed of the effect animation of the predetermined effect changes between the first period and the second period, the speed of the effect sound corresponding to the predetermined effect does not change between the first period and the second period, so that the player can It is possible to prevent giving a sense of incongruity.
