DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Hereinafter, an embodiment of a pachinko game distribution system according to the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
[0011]
FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing the configuration of the pachinko game distribution system of the present embodiment. As shown in FIG. 1, the pachinko game distribution system 1 includes a management server 2 that distributes game data of a pachinko game via a network, and a virtual pachinko terminal 3 that provides a player with the pachinko game received from the network. ing.
[0012]
Here, the virtual pachinko terminal 3 includes a normal personal computer capable of playing a pachinko game, a home game machine, and the like. The management server 2 and the virtual pachinko terminal 3 are connected by a network such as Ethernet (registered trademark) or a communication network such as the Internet.
[0013]
Next, pachinko game distribution processing by the pachinko game distribution system 1 of the present embodiment will be described based on the process flow of FIG.
[0014]
First, the player of the pachinko game transmits a game start request from the virtual pachinko terminal 3 to the management server 2 (S201).
[0015]
In response to this, the management server 2 performs authentication processing of the virtual pachinko terminal 3 and its player (S202). In this authentication process, the player inputs a password and a key from the virtual pachinko terminal 3, and performs an authentication process such as whether the management server 2 is a player registered in advance based on the information.
[0016]
When the authentication process is completed, the management server 2 transmits setting information (S203), and the setting process of the virtual pachinko terminal 3 is performed (S204). In the setting information transmitted here, a direction to rebound when a pachinko ball hits a predetermined area of the nail installed in the winning opening is set.
[0017]
FIG. 3 shows an enlarged view of nails displayed on the screen of the virtual pachinko terminal 3 and separated by squares. Conventionally, the pachinko ball that hits the right side of the line AA ′ jumps to the right, and the pachinko ball that hits the left side jumps to the left.
[0018]
However, when the pachinko ball hits the area 31 indicated by the diagonal lines, the nail is only a small point on the screen, so it is not unnatural for human eyes to jump to the left or right.
[0019]
Therefore, the winning probability can be easily managed by setting this area 31 as a rebound setting area and setting the rebound direction and its probability when the pachinko ball hits.
[0020]
For example, as shown in FIG. 4, when the normal nail adjustment is set for two nails installed in the winning opening, as shown in FIG. In the case of tight nail adjustment, as shown in FIG. 4B, the inner side is set to 25% and the outer side is set to 75% so as to increase the probability of bouncing outward. In the case of a sweet nail adjustment, as shown in FIG. 4C, the inner side is set to 100% and the outer side is set to 0% so as to increase the probability of bouncing inward.
[0021]
Thereby, the winning probability can be adjusted.
[0022]
And when the game board surface as shown in FIG. 5 is displayed on the virtual pachinko terminal 3, the rebound probability setting as shown in FIG. 6 is set for each of the nails installed in the winning openings 51 to 54. Prepare a table. In the rebound probability setting table, the probability of rebounding in the case where the nail adjustment is poor, the probability of rebounding in the normal case, and the probability of rebounding in the tight case are set for each winning opening. Sets a bounce probability for each winning port of each virtual pachinko terminal 3 from this bounce probability setting table, and transmits this to each virtual pachinko terminal 3 as setting information.
[0023]
The virtual pachinko terminal 3 provides the player with a pachinko virtual game based on the received rebound probability.
[0024]
When the setting process is completed in this way, the process returns to the process flow of FIG. 2, and then the management server 2 distributes the game data (S205), and the game is started in each virtual pachinko terminal 3 (S206).
[0025]
Here, the pachinko ball rebound adjustment process in the virtual pachinko terminal 3 will be described based on the flowchart of FIG.
[0026]
The virtual pachinko terminal 3 calculates the pachinko ball trajectory according to the laws of physics and outputs it on the screen. In this trajectory calculation, it is determined whether or not the pachinko ball hits a predetermined nail installed at the winning opening. (S701).
[0027]
Then, when the pachinko ball hits a predetermined nail, it is determined whether or not the next hit location is a rebound setting area in which the direction of rebound is set (S702). If it is not the rebound setting area, normal trajectory calculation processing is performed. (S703) The rebound adjustment process of the present embodiment ends.
[0028]
Further, when the pachinko ball hits the rebound setting area, the rebound direction is determined based on the setting information of the hit area (S704).
[0029]
Then, the trajectory calculation is performed when rebounding in the determined direction (S703), and the rebound adjustment process of the present embodiment ends.
[0030]
In this way, when the game is provided to the player by the virtual pachinko terminal 3, and then the player requests the end of the game and transmits information such as the number of balls to be played (S207), the management server 2 ends the distribution of the game data Then, the distribution process of the pachinko game of the present embodiment ends.
[0031]
As described above, the pachinko game distribution system 1 according to the present embodiment sets the direction and probability of rebounding when the pachinko ball hits the nail rebound setting area installed in the winning opening, thereby allowing the winning opening. The winning probability can be adjusted, and the amount of balls can be easily managed.
[0032]
In particular, since the bounce probability of each winning opening can be easily set by preparing a simple table such as a bounce probability setting table, the management server 2 can easily manage the amount of balls. Can do.
[0033]
Therefore, even when game data of a pachinko game is distributed to a large number of virtual pachinko terminals 3 using the Internet, it is possible to easily adjust and manage the amount of balls in all the virtual pachinko terminals 3. It was.
[0034]
【The invention's effect】
As described above, according to the pachinko game distribution system of the present invention, the winning probability to the winning opening can be adjusted by managing the direction and probability of rebound when the pachinko ball hits the nail. The amount of balls can be easily managed.
