BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a ball game machine that provides a game advantageous to a player when a specific symbol is displayed on a screen of a game board, and more particularly to control for displaying an image on a screen.
[0002]
[Prior art]
As gaming machines in recent years, so-called fever machines, game machines with various game contents called rights items or arrangements have become widespread. The Fever machine performs a so-called reach display in which, for example, a 2-digit display portion of a 3-digit display portion is the same design when a specific symbol is statically displayed after the display state of the variable display device fluctuates, and then the remaining symbols are displayed. When the same combination of symbols as the other display units is displayed on the display unit, specifically a specific 3-digit combination such as “7, 7, 7”, etc., a so-called big hit state is opened that is called an attacker. It is configured to The big prize opening is closed once a predetermined number of game balls have won or a predetermined time has elapsed, but if the game ball passes through a specific area formed in the big prize opening during the opening, It is configured to open and repeat the opening and closing operations up to 16 times. In this big hit state, a large number of game balls can be won in the big prize opening. Normally, 10 game balls can be won in the big prize opening by opening the big prize opening once, and since this is repeated 16 times, 160 game balls can be won. Generally, 15 game balls are arranged to be paid out as prize balls for each winning game ball. Therefore, when a big hit state occurs, a maximum of 2400 (= 10 × 16 × 15) game balls are paid out as prize balls.
[0003]
In general, the control for displaying a specific symbol of the same three digits on the variable display device is performed as follows.
Control of pachinko machines is roughly divided into a main control board that controls the game on the game board, an image control board (symbol display device) that displays video on the screen on the game board, and pays out a prize ball to the player. And the like, a frame control base for controlling the firing, a launch control base for controlling the launch handle, and the like.
In the main control board, interrupt processing for a predetermined time (usually 2ms to 2.5ms) is executed, and it is used to determine the success / failure random number used to determine the success / failure of the big hit, the big hit symbol random number used for the determination of the big hit, Various types of control such as the processing for updating outlier random numbers to be used are configured to end within this interrupt time. In the success / failure determination random number update process, the value is incremented by 1 only once in the interrupt process, and 225 numerical values in a certain range, for example, 0 to 224 are repeatedly created. The jackpot symbol random number is incremented by 1 only once in the interrupt process, and 15 numerical values within a certain range, for example, 0 to 14, are repeatedly created. The off symbol random number is composed of an off symbol symbol, an off symbol symbol, and a right symbol random number, and for example, 15 numerical values of 0 to 14 are repeatedly generated. Out-of-left design random numbers are incremented by +1 during interrupt processing, out-of-order symbol random numbers are incremented by 1 when the left-out symbol random numbers are updated from 14 to 0, and right-out symbol random numbers are out-of-range symbol random numbers from 14. When the value is updated to 0, the value is incremented by +1. Further, these out-of-order symbol random numbers are changed by performing the same updating process until a predetermined time elapses within the remaining time of the interrupt process.
[0004]
These various random numbers are selected by lottery when a game ball launched on the game board surface enters a specific winning entrance (entrance entrance). Even if game balls are fired at almost the same timing (usually 100 balls per minute), the game balls that have been fired are changed in the flow speed and flow direction by obstacle nails, etc. The timing of entering the mouth becomes irregular, and the various random numbers act literally as random numbers.
[0005]
When the game ball enters the specific winning opening, a winning / decision random number, a jackpot symbol random number, or a miss symbol random number is selected, and data corresponding to the value is transmitted to the image control board. In the image control board, after a special symbol for notifying the player of the determination result of the success / failure based on the data received from the main control board is variably displayed on the screen for a predetermined time (usually 5.0 ms to 29.9 ms). Controls the static display. That is, every time a game ball enters a specific winning opening, a special symbol fluctuates on the image control board and the result of the success / failure is displayed. However, the probability of winning a jackpot is generally in the range of 1/200 to 1/360, and it is rare that a jackpot is displayed on the screen. For this reason, in order to make the player hit or miss the jackpot, he / she performs a trick display such as displaying a jackpot display when the jackpot display is displayed, or displaying a jackpot display when the display is outnumbered. Controls that do not give the player a sense of boredom are also being implemented.
[0006]
On the other hand, when the game ball enters the specific winning opening while the special symbol is changing or the big hitting operation, the above-mentioned various random numbers are stored at the timing when the game is entered, and the normal maximum game ball 4 is stored as this storage. It is configured to store up to the number. Then, if there is a reserved memory after the special symbol fluctuation stop or after the jackpot operation ends, the special symbol variation processing is started again to digest the reserved memory, and the special symbol based on the various random numbers stored after a predetermined time has passed. Perform a static display. At this time, the symbol variation time for the reserved memory is not changed for more than 5 seconds after the last variation of the special symbol, but from the time when the game ball that is the timing for storing the reserved ball enters the specific winning opening. As a time measurement, there may be a time when the stationary of the special symbol fluctuates in less than 5 seconds at the shortest. With this, it is not possible to enjoy the process of changing the design. In order to solve this problem, the fluctuation may be terminated after more than 5 seconds have elapsed since the start of the symbol fluctuation for the reserved memory. It is also conceivable that the number of symbol variations decreases.
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
[0007]
However, if two of the changing special symbols are not stationary and reach a reach state, there will be no jackpot display. If the player is not in a reach state, until the last symbol is statically displayed. This time is not wasting any interest and wasted time.
The bullet ball game machine of the present invention is made for the purpose of solving this problem, and is to make the game more interesting.
[0008]

[0020]
The game control board 30 is provided with a CPU 70 for main control which is the center of the control circuit of the pachinko machine 10. The CPU 70 is connected to a ROM 71 that stores an operation program of the CPU 70 and a RAM 72 that is a work area of the CPU 70. The CPU 70 controls each part of the pachinko machine 10 according to the program stored in the ROM 71. Can be controlled.
An input / output port (I / O) 73 is connected to the CPU 70. The input / output port 73 has the above-mentioned winning ball detection switches 45 to 47 directly as an input system, the count detection switches 48 to 49 through the terminal board 32, the touch switch 55, the firing stop switch 56, the left and right normal symbol operation gates. A passage detection switch 57, a volume switch 58, and the like are connected, and various lamp LEDs 60, volume switches 61, various solenoids 62, a sound generator 63, a prize ball paying device 64, and a launching device control via the frame control board 31 as an output system. A base 65 or the like is connected. The game control board 30 is further connected to the special symbol control board 54 described above, and is configured to be supplied with power from the power terminal board 34.
[0021]
As shown in FIG. 5, the special symbol control board 54 is configured as a logical operation circuit in which the CPU 80, the RAM 81, the ROM 82, and the input / output I / O 83 are connected to each other by a bus as in the game control board 30.

The special symbol display device 12 which is the above-mentioned liquid crystal display is connected to the output I / O 86 for the liquid crystal display panel. A game control board 30 is connected to the input / output I / O 83.
The RAM 81 serves as a work area for the CPU 80, and the ROM 82 stores an operation program for the CPU 80, image data, and the like.
[0022]
As shown in FIG. 6, the frame control board 31 is a battery that supplies emergency power to the RAM of the one-chip microcomputer 90, centered on the one-chip microcomputer 90 and the input / output I / O 91 that have a built-in ROM and RAM. 92 or the like. In addition to the game control board 30, various LED LEDs 60, volume switches 61, various solenoids 62, a sound generator 63, a prize ball payout device 64, and a launcher control board 65 are connected to the input / output I / O 91.
In this specific example, the communication from the game control board 30 to the frame control board 31 and the special symbol control board 54 is in only one direction, and the frame control board 31 or the special symbol control board 54 cannot communicate with the game control board 30. It is said that.
[0023]
As shown in FIG. 7, the special symbol display device 12 is a first special symbol display that starts changing the symbol when the winning ball detection switch 47 detects that the game ball has won the ordinary electric accessory 13. Three special symbol display units 12a to 12c constituting the part, three special symbol display units 12d to 12f constituting the second special symbol display unit, and the special ball is changing or the special game is being executed When the prize winning ball detection switch 47 detects that a prize has been won for the ordinary electric accessory 13, it is composed of four hold storage display portions 12g to 12j that indicate to the player that the game has been stored.
[0024]
The CPU 70 of the game control board 30 executes an interrupt process for a predetermined time (usually 2 ms to 2.5 ms), and determines whether or not the random number is determined to be used for determining whether or not the special game (also referred to as “big hit”) is correct. A jackpot symbol random number used for symbol determination, an out symbol symbol random number update process used for symbol determination, etc. are periodically executed. In the success / failure determination random number update process, the value is incremented by 1 only once in the interrupt process, and 225 numerical values in a certain range, for example, 0 to 224 are repeatedly created. The jackpot symbol random number is incremented by 1 only once during interrupt processing, and 15 numbers from 0 to 14 are repeatedly generated. The off symbol random number is composed of an off symbol symbol, an off symbol symbol, and a right symbol random number, and 15 numerical values of 0 to 14 are repeatedly generated. Out-of-left design random numbers are incremented by +1 during interrupt processing, out-of-order symbol random numbers are incremented by 1 when the left-out symbol random numbers are updated from 14 to 0, and right-out symbol random numbers are out-of-range symbol random numbers from 14. When the value is updated to 0, the value is incremented by +1. Further, these out-of-order symbol random numbers are changed by performing the same updating process until a predetermined time has elapsed within the remaining time of the interrupt process. These various random numbers are selected by lottery when the winning ball detecting switch 47 detects that the game ball launched on the game board surface has won the ordinary electric accessory 13. Even if game balls are fired at almost the same timing (usually 100 balls per minute), the game balls that have been fired are changed in the flow speed and flow direction by obstacle nails, etc. The timing of entering the mouth becomes irregular, and the various random numbers act literally as random numbers.
[0025]
On the other hand, the on-hold storage display units 12g to 12j are lit and displayed by the winning ball detection switch 47, as described above, when the special symbol is fluctuating or during the execution of the special game, the game ball has won the ordinary electric accessory 13 In this case, the various random numbers are drawn at the timing when they are detected, and the values at that time are stored in the RAM 72.
[0026]
The control operation in which the pachinko machine 10 of the present specific example having the above-described configuration variably displays the symbols on the special symbol display device 12 will be described.
The CPU 70 of the game control board 30 determines whether or not it is a big hit according to the value of the random number determined when the game ball wins the ordinary electric accessory 13 which is the first type starting port (whether or not the condition device operates). ) Is determined, and predetermined data is transmitted to the special symbol control board 54 based on this determination. Specifically, in the case of detachment, a flag indicating that the conditional device has not been operated, data indicating the left, middle and right special symbols, data indicating the display position of each special symbol, etc. as data of 10 to 12 bytes every 2 ms Send regularly. In the case of a big win, a flag indicating the condition device operation, a flag indicating whether or not the vehicle passes through a specific area, the number of times the special winning opening 21 is opened, data indicating the left, middle and right special symbols as the big win symbol, Data indicating the display position is periodically transmitted as data of 10 bytes to 12 bytes every 2 ms.
[0027]
The CPU 80 of the special symbol control board 54 changes the left, middle and right special symbols on the special symbol display units 12a to 12c on the screen according to the timing chart shown in FIG. 8 based on the data transmitted from the game control board 30. Execute the process to be displayed. Points P1 to P19 shown in the figure indicate examples of changing points such as the changing speed of each special symbol, and points 20 and 21 indicate examples of changing points of the background character. In this example, the left special symbol, the middle special symbol, and the right special symbol start changing at medium speed at the same time (points P1 to P3) and start high-speed fluctuation after about 1.5 seconds (points P4 to P6). . After that, the left special symbol is shifted to the medium speed again after 3 seconds (point P7), then further shifted to the low speed after 0.5 seconds (point P8), and after 0.5 seconds, the fluctuation is finished and stops (point). P9). The medium special symbol fluctuates at high speed for about 4.0 seconds (points P5, P10), then fluctuates at medium speed for about 1.0 seconds again (points P10, P11), and fluctuates at low speed for about 0.5 seconds. (Point P12). The right special symbol fluctuates at high speed for about 7.0 seconds (points P6 and P13), and thereafter fluctuates at low speed for about 1.5 seconds and then stops (points P13 and P16). All special symbols are determined at points P14 to P16, but thereafter a symbol confirmation time of about 1.5 seconds is provided.
In this specific example, the left special symbol, the middle special symbol and the right special symbol all start with the previous stationary symbol, in other words, change from the previous off symbol or jackpot symbol, and change from “1” to “15” in ascending order from that symbol. The symbols are repeatedly scroll-displayed, and the stationary symbols after the end of the fluctuation are changed while shifting, and the symbols determined from the random symbols or the jackpot symbols are determined.
[0028]
As described above, in the variation pattern shown in FIG. 8, the variation display of the special symbol that is variably displayed on the special symbol display units 12 a to 12 c ends the variation display in about 11.5 seconds after the variation starts. The time varies depending on the variation pattern or the reach pattern, and in this specific example, has a width from the shortest 5.0 seconds to the longest 30.0 seconds.
When the winning ball detection switch 47 detects that the game ball fired during the variation process has won the ordinary electric accessory 13, various random numbers are randomly selected and stored in the RAM 72 and stored in a pending manner as described above. The display units 12g to 12j are lit up. In this specific example, it is a game that the symbols displayed on the left and middle special symbol display units 12a and 12b among the currently changing special symbols are fixed and the reach state is not reached. From the time point indicated by the person (FIG. 8, point P12), the variable symbol display corresponding to the reserved storage display part 12g is executed in the special symbol display parts 12d to 12f. The screen shown in FIG. 7 shows the fluctuation state at this time. On this screen, the special symbols displayed on the special symbol display units 12a and 12b are displayed statically, the special symbols displayed on the special symbol display unit 12c are changed at high speed, and the special symbols displayed on the special symbol display units 12d to 12f are displayed. It shows a state in which the symbol starts to fluctuate at medium speed and the on-hold storage display unit 12j is turned off. In addition, the arrow shown in each special symbol display part in a figure has shown that the display symbol is changing (during scrolling).
[0029]
The special symbols displayed on the special symbol display units 12d to 12f are also variably displayed according to the same variation pattern as the special symbols variably displayed on the special symbol display units 12a to 12c, and then the same processing as the processing described above is lit. The variable display corresponding to the storage of the storage display units 12g to 12i is executed. That is, after the variable display variably displayed on the special symbol display unit 12c ends and the symbol confirmation time elapses, the symbols displayed on the special symbol display units 12d and 12e that are currently changing the symbol are determined and do not reach the reach state. From the point of time when the player is shown, the special symbol display units 12a to 12c perform the variable display corresponding to the storage of the hold storage display unit 12g, and the hold storage display unit 12i is turned off. In this way, the variable display corresponding to the hold storage is alternately displayed on the special symbol display units 12a to 12c and the special symbol display units 12d to 12f before the end of the variation of the special symbol currently changing.
[0030]
According to the specific example described above in detail, the change of the special symbol corresponding to the reserved memory is started immediately when it is determined that the special game is not executed even if the special symbol is changing, and there is a reserved memory. As long as there is an expectation for the execution of the special game, there is an extremely excellent effect that the symbol variation can be continuously executed.
In addition, the special symbol corresponding to the reserved storage can be started at an early stage. As a result, the adverse effect that the actual symbol variation time is less than 5 seconds even if 5 seconds or more have elapsed since the time of the reserved storage as in the prior art is suitably corrected, and the number of symbol variations per unit time is reduced. In addition, it has an extremely excellent effect that it can always provide the player with the fun of the process of changing the symbols.
[0031]
In this specific example, the next variation is started when it is determined that the current symbol variation is not in the reach state, but this timing can be changed as appropriate. For example, it may be configured to start the variation of the special symbol corresponding to the reserved memory from the end of the variation of the left symbol, or to start the variation of the special symbol corresponding to the reserved memory even in the reach state. It may be configured. Further, in this specific example, two special symbol display units each including three display units are provided. However, there is no problem even if three or more special symbol display units are provided. In this case, it is preferable to start the change of the symbol corresponding to the reserved storage at an early stage as when the change of the left symbol is finished.
[0032]
Next, a second specific example will be described with reference to FIG. In the second specific example, the configuration on the screen of the special symbol display device 12 used in the first specific example is the screen configuration shown in FIG. 9, and the other configurations are configured in the same manner as in the first specific example. is there.
In the second specific example, four special symbol display portions 12k to 12n each including three upper, middle, and lower display portions are provided.
In the second specific example, the symbol variation corresponding to winning in the ordinary electric accessory 13 is displayed one after another on the four special symbol display units 12k to 12n without being stored on hold. When the four special symbol display parts 12k to 12n are all displayed in a variable manner, only a winning ball is executed even if a game ball wins the ordinary electric accessory 13. In this case, it is preferable to end the variation of the special symbol corresponding to the subsequent winning after the variation of the special symbol corresponding to the previous winning is completed, but the variation of the special symbol corresponding to the subsequent winning corresponds to the previous winning. There is no problem even if it is configured to end earlier than the fluctuation of the symbol. In addition, when the change corresponding to the winning is started, it is preferable to use the special symbol display unit that has finished the change first. In addition, if the special symbol that has been fluctuated earlier displays that the special game is executed, the symbol that is fluctuating may be displayed in a variable manner until the execution of the special game is completed, or the execution of the special game is terminated. It is also possible to end the variation of the symbols. In this case, it may be configured that when a special symbol that has been changed later is displayed to execute a special game, the next special game is executed after the execution of the previous special game is completed.
Therefore, the execution of the special game is promised up to four times, and it is sufficient that only the winning ball is executed even if the ordinary electric accessory 13 is won in this state.
[0033]
According to the second specific example, there is no waiting time for symbol variation corresponding to the conventional reserved memory, and if there is a prize in the ordinary electric accessory 13, the symbol variation is executed in a timely manner for up to four prizes. There is an extremely excellent effect of being able to. Thereby, the effect by the 1st specific example can be heightened further.
In addition, it cannot be overemphasized that the special symbol display part in this 2nd example is not limited to four pieces, and can increase / decrease. Further, the first specific example and the second specific example may be combined. In other words, three special symbol display parts consisting of three display parts and two reserved memory display parts are provided, and three special symbols corresponding to winning can be changed simultaneously, and two or more game balls can be won. It is configured to store the data until minutes.

Further, in the two specific examples described above, no mention was made of so-called “probability fluctuation” or “short time”, but there is no problem in adopting each invention as a probability fluctuation machine or a short time machine. In particular, when the chance of hitting the ordinary electric accessory 13 is set to a high probability after execution of a special game, for example, from 1/10 to 9/10, and the fluctuation time of the normal symbol is shortened, the opportunity for the ordinary electric accessory 13 to be released is open. More and more game balls will inevitably win. Therefore, the multiple variation display has the effect of making the effect of the above-described specific example more remarkable. For this reason, the invention described in the specific example 1 and the specific example 2 may be configured to be executed only when the probability is high or the time is short.

【The invention's effect】
According to each of the first to third aspects of the present invention, the special symbol corresponding to the entrance to the specific entrance of one game ball is changing while the special game is being executed by the special game executing means. Even if there is, the special symbol change corresponding to the next specific entrance is started immediately, and it is possible to continuously execute the symbol change with the expectation for the execution of the special game. Play.
In addition, the special symbol corresponding to the reserved storage can be started at an early stage. As a result, it is possible to suitably correct the adverse effect that the actual symbol variation time is less than 5 seconds even if 5 seconds or more have elapsed since the time of the reserved storage as in the prior art, and to reduce the number of symbol variations per unit time. In addition, it has an extremely excellent effect that it can always provide the player with the fun of the process of changing the symbols.
