Description

  The present invention relates to a pachinko gaming machine provided with a normal symbol for notifying the operation of a normal electric accessory and a special symbol for notifying the operation of a special winning opening.

  The current mainstream pachinko machines have a normal symbol starting means (normal symbol operation gate) for performing a normal symbol lottery on the game board surface, a normal symbol display device for notifying the lottery result of the normal symbol lottery, and a normal symbol lottery. Ordinary symbol that is opened at the time, special symbol starting means (special symbol starting port) provided in the ordinary electric symbol for performing special symbol lottery, and a special symbol display device for notifying the lottery result of the special symbol lottery In many cases, a special winning lot is opened when a special symbol lottery is won.

  By providing such a relationship between the normal symbol and the special symbol, winning the normal symbol not only obtains a prize ball by entering the ordinary electric accessory, but also a special symbol lottery opportunity. Therefore, it can be said that there is a possibility that a larger amount of prize balls can be obtained <Patent Document 1>. In Patent Document 1, there is a description including an open extension function as the open control of the ordinary electric accessory. The opening extension function increases the lottery opportunity for special symbols by increasing the opening time of ordinary electric accessories at the time of normal symbol winning or increasing the number of times of opening, and by the winning ball obtained by entering the game ball, It is possible to give a state in which the game can proceed without reducing the number of game balls on hand other than when the release extension function is activated (normal time). In addition, there is also a configuration in which a plurality of open patterns of ordinary electric accessories are provided and the degree of dominance at the time of normal symbol winning is different <Patent Document 2>.

  In the pachinko gaming machine configured as described above, special symbol effects and normal symbol effects are performed individually. In particular, the normal symbol felt that the winning value was low because the number of prize balls was small compared to the special symbol, and the player was not noticed except when the opening extension function was activated.

  Since the present invention provides a chance to obtain a certain amount of prize balls when performing an opening pattern that is opened for a long time by providing a plurality of opening patterns of ordinary electric accessories even in a normal game in which the opening extension function is not activated, By making interest in the lottery result of the symbol, and by making the production related to the lottery of the normal symbol also involved in the lottery result of the special symbol, the lottery result of the special symbol and the normal symbol is suggested by one production. An object of the present invention is to provide a ball game machine with a novel effect that can be used.

A display control command transmitting means for transmitting a display control command indicating a result of the lottery and a variation time of a special symbol corresponding to the result at the time of the lottery to the sub-control device;
The judgment result command indicating a determination result by the operation determination hand stage, and a determination result command transmitting means for transmitting to the sub controller,
In the sub-control device,
A pseudo symbol selecting means for selecting a pseudo symbol and a variation pattern to be displayed from a plurality of pseudo symbols and a variation pattern based on the received display control command;
Pseudo symbol display means for displaying on the effect symbol display device an effect display based on the pseudo symbol and the variation pattern selected by the pseudo symbol selection means;
Suggesting effect determining means for determining whether or not to suggest the determination result of the operation determining means and the result of the lottery using a suggestive symbol different from the pseudo symbol ,
The suggestion effect determination means includes a suggestion symbol selection means for selecting one of the plurality of suggestion symbols according to the content of the received determination result command, and the suggestion symbol selected by the suggestion symbol selection means. Suggesting symbol display means for displaying on the effect symbol display device ,
Before Symbol suggest symbol selection means, to indicate that the contents of the determination result command received is not actuated the variable winning device, selects the suggested pattern with reference to the variation pattern of the pseudo symbols in the effect display Is,
The ball game machine characterized by selecting the suggestion symbol that suggests the development to the predetermined reach when the reference reaches the predetermined reach .

  There may be a plurality of random numbers that are extracted and acquired due to the entry of one game ball into the starting port and the operating port. When entering the starting port, it is determined whether or not it is a big hit (whether or not). A random value, a random value for determining the jackpot symbol, and a random value for determining the variation time of the special symbol may be used. Moreover, it is good also as a structure which determines the action | operation content of a big winning opening based on the determined jackpot symbol. When entering the working hole, a random value that determines whether or not the normal electric accessory is hit (determined per universal figure), a random value that determines the winning symbol, and a random value that determines the fluctuation time of the normal symbol It is good. Further, the operation content of the variable winning device may be determined based on the determined winning symbol, or the operation content of the variable winning device may be determined according to the value of a random value for determining whether or not it is a winning game.

  The operation determination means may be any means for determining the operation content including the case where the variable prize winning device does not operate. The long operation time is the longest operation time, the short operation time is the shortest operation time, the longest operation time and the most It is good also as a structure which provides several operation time between short operation time, and determines one operation time from them. The operating time refers to the time from the start to the end of the variable winning device (ordinary electric accessory) executed according to one normal symbol hit. The operation may be performed, and the opening and closing operations may be repeated a plurality of times. Moreover, the structure which is always selected from several operation time as a determination may be sufficient.

  The special symbol may only be displayed small in the corner of the gaming area. In that case, the special symbol pseudo-graphic is displayed on the effect symbol display device provided in the center of the gaming area, and the result is notified. A configuration in which the effects are performed is suitable.

  The suggestion symbol may be any symbol that suggests the operation contents of the variable winning device, which is the result of the normal symbol drawing, and the special symbol jackpot expectation, and one suggestion symbol is the normal symbol operation content or the special symbol jackpot expectation. One of the degrees may be suggested, or the determination result of both the normal symbol and the special symbol may be suggested with one symbol.

  The suggestion effect determination means may be configured to perform the suggestion effect even when the received determination result command is a determination indicating the operation of the variable winning device. In that case, the suggestion symbol selecting means may be configured to select the suggestion symbol by referring only to the determination result, or may be configured to select by referring to the variation pattern of the special symbol. When selecting only the judgment result, it is possible to make a suggestion effect that prioritizes the correspondence to the judgment result of the ordinary figure, and when referring to the variation pattern, always reflect the judgment contents of the special symbol and the normal symbol Can do.

  In addition, when referring also to a fluctuation pattern, it is preferable to give priority to each determination result. Even when the normal symbol judgment result is a long operating time, if the variation pattern of the special symbol shows a big hit, the suggested symbol reflecting the special symbol is selected, etc. If the advantage is set together, the highest privilege can always be suggested.

  The suggestion symbol selection means selects the suggestion symbol with reference to the variation pattern being implemented if the special symbol is in the variation period and is within the valid period, but if the special symbol is outside the valid period, the suggestion effect is not performed. However, there may be a configuration in which, when the period is outside the valid period, an effect is produced using a symbol that does not suggest the result of lottery of the normal symbol and the special symbol as a result.

  In addition, a configuration in which the suggestion effect is performed only when the reception timing of the determination result command is within the valid period is also conceivable. In that case, it is possible to always make the suggestion effect determined after referring to the lottery results of the normal symbol and the special symbol.

  The reference of the fluctuation pattern is to check whether the fluctuation of the pseudo pattern being implemented will develop into a special effect such as so-called super reach, and whether the combination of the pseudo pattern that will be the final notification shows a big hit. Yes, this is a process for confirming whether or not the player can expect a big hit with respect to the change.

  According to the ball ball game machine of claim 1, when the lottery of the normal symbol is out of the way as the suggestion effect, it becomes possible to know the determination contents of the special symbol being changed, and the suggestion symbol effect is started. At that time, it is possible to give interest to the lottery results of both symbols, whether the suggested symbol that is confirmed and displayed indicates the determination content of the normal symbol or the determination content of the special symbol.

  A normal symbol actuating gate 42 is provided on the left side of the liquid crystal frame decoration 28, and the lower side is a first electric opening 31 and a normal electric accessory 40 that can be awarded only when it is opened (corresponding to the variable winning device of the present invention). ) Is provided as the second start port 32. Further, the normal electric accessory 40 is provided with a normal symbol display device 41 composed of a light emitting member such as a 7-segment LED. Below the second start port 32, a big prize opening unit 33 having an attacker-type big prize opening 33a is arranged, and below the big prize opening unit 33, an out port 34 is provided. On the left side of the big winning opening 33a, there is provided a normal symbol holding number display device 41a composed of four LEDs. Further, a winning port unit 35 having a left general winning port 35a is provided on the left side of the big winning port unit 33, and a winning port unit 35 having a right general winning port 35a is also provided on the right side of the large winning port unit 33. It has been.

  By configuring the game board 8 as described above, when a game ball enters the normal symbol operation gate 42 (the normal symbol operation switch 42a (see FIG. 2) detects the game ball and determines that it is a win), a normal symbol display is displayed. The normal symbol starts to be displayed on the device 41, and the blade member of the normal electric accessory 40 is driven in accordance with the mode of the normal symbol stopped after a predetermined time, so that it is possible to enter the normal electric accessory 40. It is comprised so that it may become.

  The opening time during which the blade member of the ordinary electric accessory 40 is driven is normally 5. after opening for 0.100 seconds (short opening) or once for 0.100 seconds. One of the two types of opening patterns for releasing 400 seconds once (long opening) is performed, and one of the opening patterns is performed according to the type of symbol of the normal symbol. In the short-time state (open extended state), 1.880 seconds are released three times per normal symbol.

  In addition, the “opening for 5.400 seconds after opening for 0.100 seconds” (long opening), which is performed at the time of one hit in normal time, operates in a longer time than the variable winning device of the present invention. Similarly, “one opening of 0.100 seconds” (short opening) performed at the time of one hit in normal time corresponds to the operation in a short time. Also, if a normal symbol hits with a long open symbol, it opens for 0.100 seconds and then releases for 5.400 seconds, but the release for 0.100 seconds tells the player when to release long. Has the effect of making it easier (preparation to hit).

  When a game ball enters the first start port 31 (when the first start port switch 31a (see FIG. 2) detects the game ball and determines that it is a win), the first special symbol changes in the first special symbol display device 29. Start and stop after a predetermined time. In addition, when a game ball enters the ordinary electric accessory 40 which is the second start port 32 (the second start port switch 32a (see FIG. 2) detects the game ball and determines that it is a win), the second special symbol display device At 30, the second special symbol starts to change and stops after a predetermined time.

  During the change of the first special symbol and the second special symbol, the effect pattern display device 54b arranged in the window 28a displays the effect pattern of the pseudo symbol linked to the change of each special symbol. In addition, the first special symbol and the second special symbol are preferentially implemented to stop the change of the second special symbol (whether or not) regardless of the order of entering the first starting port and the second starting port. Specifically, when there is a reserved memory of the first special symbol, the variation of the second special symbol is stopped and there is no second special symbol reserved memory, and the variation for the first special symbol reserved memory is started. To do. The door member of the grand prize winning unit 33 is driven according to the first special symbol and the second special symbol, so that it is possible to enter the special prize winning port 33a.

  In the pachinko gaming machine according to the present embodiment, the player is more advantageous when entering the second starting port 32 than when entering the first starting port 31. Specifically, if the winning / failing determination based on the ball entering the second starting port 32 is a big hit, the big winning port 33a can acquire a big hit game in which the opening operation is performed 15 times each time. In the case of a big hit based on the winning / no-go decision based on the entrance to the mouth 31, the probability of winning a big hit game with 15 opening actions is 50%, and the remaining 50% is a smaller number of opening times (six times) ) In addition, when one game ball is won, the number of prize balls to be acquired is three for the first start opening 31 and the ordinary electric accessory 40 (second start opening 32), 14 for the large winning opening 33a, left and right general Ten winning openings 35a are set.

  Next, the start winning process performed by the main controller 50 will be described with reference to FIG. In the start winning process, various random numbers such as success / failure random numbers acquired when a game ball enters the first start port 31 and the second start port 32 or when the game ball passes through the normal symbol operation gate 42, This is a process of storing in the main controller 50 as a reserved storage. Thereafter, the holding memory stored when the game ball enters the first starting port 31 is the first holding memory, and the holding memory stored when the game ball enters the second starting port 32 is the second holding. The reserved memory stored when the game ball passes through the memory and normal symbol start gate 42 will be described as the normal diagram reserved memory.

  In addition, the number of reserved storages of the first, second, and general-purpose reserved storages stored in the main controller 50 are the first special symbol reserved number display device 29a and the second special symbol reserved number shown in FIG. 1, respectively. The player can recognize by lighting the display device 30a and the normal symbol hold number display device 41a. In this embodiment, the maximum number of each lighting number by the normal symbol hold number display device 41a, the first special symbol hold number display device 29a, and the second special symbol hold number display device 30a is four. Even if the number of reserved memories is 0, it is acquired when a game ball enters the first start port 31 and the second start port 32, or when the game ball passes through the normal symbol operation gate 42. Various random numbers such as pass / fail random numbers are stored in the main controller 50 in the same manner as when there is a stored number less than the maximum value.

  When the start winning process is started, it is determined whether or not the first special figure start switch 31a has detected a game ball (S10). If a negative determination is made (S10: no), the process proceeds to S30. If an affirmative determination is made (S10: yes), it is determined whether or not the first reserved storage number stored in the main controller 50 is less than the upper limit value (= 4) ( S15). If the determination is negative (S15: no), the process proceeds to S30. If the determination is affirmative (S15: yes), the extracted jackpot determination random number, the jackpot symbol determination random number 1, the jackpot symbol determination random number 2, the reach determination random number, fluctuation The pattern determination random number is stored as the first reserved storage (holding storage means), 1 is added to the first reserved storage counter indicating the first reserved storage number (S20), and the value of the added first reserved storage counter is indicated. The first reserved memory number instruction command is transmitted to the sub integrated control device 53 (S25) (reserved memory number transmitting means).

  When S10 and S15 are negative (S10: no, S15: no), or when the processing of S25 is completed, it is determined whether the second special figure start switch 32a has detected a game ball (S30). If the determination is negative (S30: no), the process proceeds to S50. If the determination is affirmative (S30: yes), it is determined whether or not the second reserved storage number stored in the main controller 50 is less than the upper limit (= 4) ( S35). If the determination is negative (S35: no), the process proceeds to S50. If the determination is affirmative (S35: yes), the extracted jackpot determination random number, the jackpot symbol determination random number 1, the jackpot symbol determination random number 2, the reach determination random number, the fluctuation The random number for pattern determination is stored as the second reserved memory (holding storage means), 1 is added to the second reserved memory counter indicating the second reserved memory number (S40), and the value of the added second reserved memory counter is indicated. A second reserved memory number instruction command is transmitted to the sub integrated control device 53 (S45) (pending memory number transmitting means).

  When S30 and S35 are negative (S30: no, S35: no), or when the processing of S45 is completed, it is determined whether or not the normal symbol operation switch 42a has detected a game ball (S50). If the determination is negative (S50: no), the process returns to the return. If the determination is affirmative (S50: yes), it is determined whether or not the number of reserved maps stored in the main controller 50 is less than the upper limit (= 4) ( S55). If the determination is negative (S55: no), the process returns to the return. If the determination is affirmative (S55: yes), the extracted winning determination random number and the winning symbol determination random number are stored as a general-purpose holding storage (holding storage means). 1 is added to the general-purpose reserved memory counter indicating the number of general-purpose reserved memory (S60), and a general-purpose reserved memory number instruction command indicating the value of the added general-purpose reserved memory counter is transmitted to the sub-integrated control device 53 (S65). ) (Holding memory number transmission means), return. When the sub integrated control device 53 receives the first and second reserved memory number instruction commands, it performs control to change each reserved memory number displayed on the effect symbol display device 54b according to the reserved memory number indicated by the received command. . Further, in the present embodiment, the normal symbol hold memory number display is not performed on the effect symbol display device 54b, but it may be configured to display in response to the reception of the general symbol hold memory number instruction command. A configuration may be adopted in which the number instruction command itself is not transmitted.

  The start winning process is as described above. However, a prefetch determination process may be performed after the processes of S20, S40, and S60, and the determination result may be transmitted to the sub integrated control device 53 to perform a prefetch effect. The pre-reading effect is an effect of confirming the contents of the first, second, and ordinary map hold memories that are stored on hold before performing the success / failure determination process to be described later, and giving the player an expectation from the time of the hold storage before the determination of the success / failure. It becomes the composition which performs.

  Specifically, in the case of the first and second on-hold storage, whether or not the value of the jackpot determination random number stored on hold coincides with a value determined to be a predetermined jackpot, and if there is a mismatch However, it is determined whether the value of the random number for determining the variation pattern indicates a specific variation pattern that can be expected to be a big hit (prefetching determination means), and the determination result is transmitted to the sub-integrated control device 53. If it is normal figure hold memory, whether or not the value of the random number for hit determination stored on hold coincides with a value determined to be a predetermined hit, and if it is a win value, the random number for hit symbol determination Is determined, the operation time of the ordinary electric accessory 40 determined according to the winning symbol is determined (prefetching determination means), and the determination result is transmitted to the sub integrated control device 53. Note that the determination result by the prefetch determination unit may be transmitted to the sub-integrated control device 53 as a prefetch determination command (prefetch determination result transmission unit), or the pending number instruction command transmitted in S25, S45, and S65. The result of the prefetch determination may be combined and transmitted.

  The sub-integrated control device 53 that has received the prefetch determination result uses the corresponding hold storage display mode or a suggestion pattern to be described later according to the determination result, and expects a big hit for a change other than that change (whether or not). Degree production (prefetching production). Thereby, it becomes possible to diversify the execution opportunity of the suggestion effect mentioned later, and a player becomes interested in the lottery result of both a normal symbol and a special symbol for a longer period.

  Next, referring to FIGS. 4, 5, and 6, the universal determination determination process performed by the main controller 50 will be described. The normal / no-go determination processing is processing including the operation determination means and the determination result command transmission means of the present invention. In addition, the ordinary electric accessory 40 is activated due to hitting in the normal / unusual determination, and the ordinary electric accessory 40 is activated to enter the second start port 32 (a start port advantageous to the player). A ball is possible.

  When the normal determination determination process is started, it is determined whether or not the ordinary electric accessory is not operating (S100). If the determination is negative (S100: no), the process returns. If the determination is affirmative (S100: yes), it is determined whether the normal symbol is not changing (S105) and whether the normal symbol is indeterminately displayed (S110). . If both are affirmative determinations (S105: yes, S110: yes), it is determined whether or not there is a normal symbol hold storage (S115), if it is negative determination (S115: no), it returns, if it is affirmative determination (S115: yes), It is determined whether or not the time reduction flag is 0 (S120).

  The time reduction flag is a value stored in the main controller 50. When the value is “0”, the open extension function for making the operation time of the ordinary electric accessory 40 longer than the normal time is in a non-time reduction state where the operation is not activated. If the value is “1”, it is a value for the main controller 50 to determine that the open extension function is in a short time during operation. As a result, in this embodiment, the opening / closing extension function (function for extending the operating time of the ordinary electric accessory 40 for one normal symbol winning) is activated by setting the hour / short flag, and the opening / extension function is activated when the time / short flag is lowered. Is configured to end.

  If S120 is negative, that is, if the time is short (S120: no), the processing in the short time state is performed. However, in the short time state, the content of the fluctuation pattern table for selecting the normal symbol fluctuation pattern is different (the fluctuation time is longer than in the non-short time). In addition, the content is not subjected to the processing of S165, which will be described later, and is not different from the prior art, so the description is omitted. If S120 is an affirmative determination (S120: yes), a shift process of the general-purpose reserved memory is performed, and the oldest general-purpose reserved memory is determined as a success / failure determination target. 1 is subtracted (S125).

  Subsequently, in the hit determination random number comparison process (S135), the hit determination random number of the normal figure holding memory that is the target of the determination of the success / failure is compared with a preset normal / failure determination table to determine the hit determination random number. A comparison is made as to whether or not the value matches the determination value in the normal / bad determination table. There are two types of determinations: normal probability (low probability) and high probability. If the game state at the time of determination is normal game, compare with normal probability (50/100). Compare with (100/100).

  Subsequently, it is determined whether or not the comparison result of S135 is a win (S140). If the determination is affirmative (S140: yes), a winning symbol selection (S145) and a variation pattern determination (S162) are performed. In the winning symbol selection (S145), a normal electric motor is used with a probability of 1/50 using a random number for determining a winning symbol. The symbol which the bonus 40 makes long open is selected. Therefore, the probability that the normal symbol is hit by the long opening of the normal electric accessory 40 is 1/100 ((50/100) × (1/50)). In this embodiment, there are two types of distribution, long open and short open. Of course, a configuration in which the number of distributions is increased by adding middle open is also conceivable.

  If S140 is a negative determination (S140: no), the determination of a missing symbol (S150) and the determination of a variation pattern (S155) are performed. Subsequent to S155, the determination result of the stored general map hold (per long opening, per short opening, disengagement) is sent to the sub integrated control device 53 as a determination result command (corresponding to the determination result command in the present invention). The data is transmitted (S165), normal symbol variation start processing is performed according to the processing result (S170), and the process returns.

  If S105 is negative, that is, if the normal symbol is changing (S105: no), the process proceeds to the flowchart of FIG. 5 and whether the normal symbol change time (normally 6.0 seconds, open extended 0.5 seconds) has elapsed. It is determined whether or not (S200). If the determination is negative (S200: no), the process returns to the return, and if the determination is affirmative (S200: yes), the changing normal symbol is stopped and displayed with the symbol determined in S145 or S150 (S205). Is determined to be a winning symbol for operating the ordinary electric accessory 40 (S210). If the determination is negative (S210: no), a fixed display time is set according to the off symbol (S220), and the process returns.

  If S210 is affirmative (S210: yes), a fixed display time corresponding to the type of winning symbol is set (S215), and it is determined whether or not the time flag is 0 (S225). If the determination is affirmative, that is, if it is a normal state (S225: yes), it is determined whether or not the display symbol set to be displayed is a long open symbol (S230). If the determination is affirmative (S230: yes), the hit operation of the ordinary electric accessory 40 A long open pattern is set (S235), and if a negative determination is made (S230: no), a short open pattern is set (S235). If S225 is negative (S225: no), since the opening extension function is activated, the opening operation of 1.880 seconds × 3 times is set as the hit operation of the ordinary electric accessory 40 (S245). Subsequent to S235, S240, or S245, an operation start process of the ordinary electric accessory 40 is performed (S250), and the process returns.

  If S110 of FIG. 4 is negative determination (S110: no), it will progress to the flowchart of FIG. 6 and it will be determined whether the display time of the fixed symbol was complete | finished (S300). If a negative determination is made (S300: no), a return is made. If an affirmative determination is made (S300: yes), a confirmed symbol display end process is performed (S305), and the process returns.

  The above is the normal / failure determination processing executed by the main controller 50. In this embodiment, the normal symbol is displayed only on the normal symbol display device 41, but the universal symbol change instruction command corresponding to the determination result is transmitted to the sub-integrated control device 53, and the sub-integrated control device 53 has received it. A configuration is also conceivable in which a pseudo symbol for effect corresponding to a normal symbol is selected in accordance with the normal symbol change instruction command, and the effect variation and the final symbol are displayed on the effect symbol display device 54b using the pseudo symbol. It should be noted that the common map change instruction command may be transmitted to the sub integrated control device 53 by combining the instruction content with the determination result command of S165.

  Next, the utility operation process executed by the main controller 50 will be described using the flowchart of FIG. When the ordinary electric operation process is started, it is determined whether or not the ordinary electric accessory 40 is in operation (S350). If the determination is affirmative (S350: yes), it is determined whether or not a game ball having a prescribed number of winnings (10 in the present embodiment) during operation of the second special figure start switch 32a is detected (S355). If a negative determination is made (S355: no), it is determined whether or not the operation time of the ordinary electric accessory 40 set in S235, S240, or S245 has ended (S360). If S360 is a negative determination (S360: no), the process returns to the return. If S355 or S360 is a positive determination (S355: yes, S360: yes), a normal operation end process is performed (S365), and the process returns.

  Next, the special figure success / failure determination process executed by the main controller 50 will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. The special figure success / failure determination processing is processing including display control command transmission means in the present invention. When the special symbol success / failure determination process is started, it is determined whether or not a special symbol start condition is satisfied (S400). In this determination process, it is confirmed that the game is not being a big hit game, the special figure is changing, or the final display is not being performed. If S400 is negative (S400: no), the process returns. If the determination is affirmative (S400: yes), it is determined whether there is a second reserved memory (S405). If the determination is affirmative (S405: yes), the process proceeds to S420. If the determination is negative (S405: no), it is determined whether there is a first reserved memory (S410). If the determination is negative (S410: no), the process returns. If the determination is affirmative (S410: yes), the process proceeds to S420. According to the determination order of S405 and S410, the determination of whether or not the second reserved memory is appropriate is performed with priority over the first reserved memory.

  In S420, it is determined whether or not the time reduction flag is 0 (S420). If the determination is negative (S420: no), the process proceeds to the time-shortening state, but since this process is not different from a known process, the description is omitted. If S420 is an affirmative determination (S420: yes), a hold storage shift process is performed, whereby the oldest hold memory is the target of the determination of success / failure, and the hold memory counter indicating the number of the first or second hold memory that is the target. 1 is subtracted from S1 (S425), and a pending number instruction command indicating the value of the decremented pending storage counter is transmitted to the sub integrated control device 53 (S430).

  In the subsequent big hit determination random number comparison process (S435), the jackpot determination random number stored in the reserved memory, which is the target of the special figure success / failure determination, is compared with a preset special figure determination determination table to determine the value of the big hit determination random number. Is compared with the determination value in the special figure determination table (S435). There are two types of special figure success / failure determination tables: normal probability (low probability 1 / 358.148) and high probability (1 / 37.6855), and the game state at the time of determination is normal game. If there is, the comparison is made using the normal probability use determination table, and if the game state has a high probability, the high probability use determination table is used for comparison.

  Subsequently, it is determined whether or not the comparison result of S435 is a big hit (S440). If it is affirmation determination (S440: yes), a symbol mode setting process will be performed (S445). In the symbol mode setting process, the type of hold memory (first hold memory or second hold memory) that is the target of the success / failure determination and the content of the jackpot game based on the jackpot symbol determination random number 1 of the hold memory that is the determination target A symbol mode for determining the game state after the big hit game is set is set. Next, a jackpot symbol selection process is performed based on the set symbol mode type and the jackpot symbol determination random number 2 of the reserved storage to be determined (S450). This is because the jackpot type determined by the setting of the symbol mode (contents of the jackpot game and the game state after the end of the jackpot game) is notified by the jackpot symbol from among the symbol groups set for each type of symbol mode This is a process for determining a symbol to be displayed.

  Next, a mode buffer setting process is performed based on the symbol mode set in S445 (S455). The mode buffer is a device that stores the contents of the gaming state after the end of the big hit game determined at the time of determination of the success / failure until the end of the big hit game that sets the gaming state (the probability change flag and the short time flag that set the gaming state during the big hit game) Because it is necessary to clear). The mode buffer does not store the specific game contents (activities of the probability change function and the release extension function (time-shortening function) and the number of operations), and the symbol mode is selected from a table storing a plurality of types of specific game contents. The game content selected by the value is stored as a value corresponding to the game content.

  Next, based on the symbol mode set in S445, the winning pattern opening pattern setting process, which is the content of the big hit game, is performed (S460). Based on the random number for determination, a variation pattern to be a variation time of a symbol displayed on the first special symbol display device 29 or the second special symbol display device 30 and the effect symbol display device 54b is selected from the variation pattern selection table ( S465).

  Next, the information of the selected jackpot symbol and variation pattern is transmitted to the sub integrated control device 53 as a variation instruction command (S485) (display control command transmission means in the present invention). Based on the instruction from the sub-integrated control device 53 that has received this information, the effect symbol control device 54a controls the effect symbol display device 54b, and starts the variable symbol display corresponding to the information on the jackpot symbol and the fluctuation pattern. . At substantially the same time as the transmission to the sub integrated control device 53, the main control device 50 directly controls the first special symbol display device 29 or the second special symbol display device 30 to start the variation of the special symbols.

  If S440 is negative, i.e., lost (S440: no), it is determined whether the comparison result of the big hit determination random number comparison process (S435) is a small hit (1/150) (S470), and if it is positive ( S470: yes), a small hit symbol is selected (S475), then a small hit game release pattern setting process is performed (S460), a variation pattern selection process corresponding to the small hit symbol is performed (S465), and the small hit symbol is selected. Then, a change instruction command serving as change pattern information is transmitted to the sub integrated control device 53 (S485) (display control command transmitting means in the present invention). The effect symbol control device 54a controls the effect symbol display device 54b based on an instruction from the sub-integrated control device 53 that has received this information, and starts the variation display of the pseudo symbol corresponding to the information of the small hit symbol and the variation pattern. At substantially the same time as the transmission to the sub integrated control device 53, the main control device 50 directly controls the first special figure display device 29 or the second special figure display device 30 to start the variation of the special symbol.

  If S470 is negative (S470: no), a lost symbol is selected (S480), then a variation pattern setting process corresponding to the lost symbol is performed (S465), and a variation instruction command that becomes information on the symbol and variation pattern regarding the loss. Is transmitted to the sub integrated control device 53 (S485) (display control command transmitting means in the present invention). The effect symbol control device 54a controls the effect symbol display device 54b based on an instruction from the sub-integrated control device 53 that has received this information, and starts variable display of the pseudo symbol corresponding to the information of the lost symbol and the fluctuation pattern. At substantially the same time as transmission to the sub integrated control device 53, the main control device 50 directly controls the first special figure display device 29 or the second special figure display device 30 to start the change of the special symbol.

  The above is the explanation of the success / failure determination processing, and the display control command transmission means in the present invention is implemented that transmits the change instruction command (corresponding to the display control command of the present invention) according to the lottery result to the sub integrated control device 53. It becomes processing.

  Next, the change instruction command reception process executed by the sub integrated control device 53 will be described using the flowchart of FIG. In the variation instruction command receiving process, a pseudo symbol display mode to be displayed on the effect symbol display device 54b is selected in accordance with the content of the variation instruction command received from the main control device 50, and the selected content is selected as the effect symbol display device 54b. Is a process of giving an instruction to display to the effect symbol control device 54a, and includes a pseudo symbol selecting means and a pseudo symbol displaying means in the present invention. Also, a special figure suggestion effect that is implemented with reference to the contents of the fluctuation reception command (a result of special lottery determination and variation time of special symbol) upon reception of the fluctuation instruction command (triggering whether or not the special symbol is appropriate) The selection execution process is also performed.

  When the change instruction command reception process is started, it is determined whether or not a change instruction command is received from the main controller 50 (S510). If a negative determination is made (S510: no), a return is made. If an affirmative determination is made (S510: yes), a distributed random number is extracted (S515), and the received variation instruction command (information on the symbol and variation pattern according to the lottery result of the special symbol) and In accordance with the value of the distribution random number extracted in S515, the pseudo symbol variation mode displayed on the effect symbol display device 54b and the pseudo symbol to be confirmed are displayed among the plural types of pseudo symbols and variation modes stored in the sub integrated control device 53. A type is selected (S520) (corresponding to the pseudo symbol selecting means of the present invention). An instruction signal for displaying the variation mode selected and set by the above process on the effect symbol display device 54b is transmitted to the effect symbol control device 54a (S535) (corresponding to the pseudo symbol display means of the present invention).

  Subsequently, the distribution random number extracted in S515 uses the suggestion symbol different from the pseudo symbol when the variation instruction command is received, and suggests the result of the variation during the variation of the pseudo symbol corresponding to the variation instruction command. It is determined whether or not the execution value of the special figure suggesting effect is performed (S540). If the determination is negative (S540: no), the process returns. If the determination is affirmative (S540: yes), a suggestion symbol to be described later is selected with reference to the contents of the change instruction command (special symbol lottery result) (S545). The suggestion symbol selected in this process is a symbol common to the suggestion symbol displayed in the suggestion effect that is executed in response to a normal symbol determination result command described later.

  Subsequently, the time from the start of the pseudo symbol variation according to the instruction of S535 to the start of the special symbol suggestion effect is selected from a plurality of time settings (S550), and the type and start time of the suggested symbol determined by the above processing Is transmitted to the effect symbol control device 54a (S555), and the process returns.

  The above is the variation instruction command reception process executed by the sub-integrated control device 53, and the special figure suggesting effect that is performed when the variation instruction command is received is selected from the start of variation of the special symbol by the time effect pattern selection in S550. It will be implemented before the change develops into super reach.

  Next, determination result command reception processing executed by the sub integrated control device 53 will be described using the flowchart of FIG. This determination result command reception process is performed in accordance with the content of the determination result command received from the main control device 50 before the lottery result of the normal symbol that has started changing is displayed. This is a process for executing an effect that suggests a lottery result, and is a process that includes the suggested effect determining means, the suggested symbol selecting means, and the suggested symbol display means of the present invention.

  When the determination result command reception process is started, it is determined whether or not a determination result command has been received (S600). If the determination is negative (S600: no), the process returns. If the determination is affirmative (S600: yes), it is determined whether or not the received determination result command is a content indicating that the normal electric accessory 40 is long open (S605). If the determination is affirmative (S605: yes), it is determined whether the pseudo symbol corresponding to the special symbol is variably displayed (whether the special symbol is fluctuating) (S610), and if the determination is negative (S610: no), the process returns. If the determination is affirmative (S610: yes), a suggestion symbol that suggests the long opening of the ordinary electric accessory 40 is selected (S615) (corresponding to the suggestion symbol selection means in the present invention).

  In addition, in a present Example, it is the structure which performs an implied symbol effect unconditionally at the time of long open. In this way, it is possible to reliably notify the player at the time of long opening, and it is possible to prevent a situation in which winning is lost due to unexpected long opening. It is determined whether or not the pseudo symbol is changing (S610), but this determination may be omitted. If it is lost, it becomes possible to notify the long opening in any situation. On the other hand, if this judgment is provided, it is possible to prevent the irregular hitting of the game ball from being stopped while waiting for the long opening until the long opening is won, and the game ball is stopped while waiting for the long opening. A game can be provided.

  If S605 is a negative determination (S605: no), it is determined whether or not the received determination result command is a content indicating a short opening of the ordinary electric accessory 40 (S620). If the determination is affirmative (S620: yes), it is determined whether the pseudo symbol corresponding to the special symbol is variably displayed (whether the special symbol is fluctuating) (S625). If the determination is negative (S625: no), the process returns. If the determination is affirmative (S625: yes), a suggestion symbol that suggests the short opening of the ordinary electric accessory 40 is selected (S630) (corresponding to the suggestion symbol selection means in the present invention).

If S620 is negative, that is, if the received determination result command indicates that the ordinary electric accessory 40 does not operate (S620: no), an execution determination random number is extracted (S635). It is determined whether or not (S640). If the determination is negative (S640: no), the process returns. If the determination is affirmative (S640: yes), it is determined whether the pseudo symbol corresponding to the special symbol is being displayed in a variable manner (whether the special symbol is changing) (S645). Negative determination (S645: no) leakage in the return, a positive determination is made (S645: yes), refers to the variation pattern of the pseudo symbols in variation (S6 50).

  The pseudo symbol of the present embodiment is composed of three symbols of left, middle, and right (see FIG. 14), and when the effect change is started, it stops in the order of left, right, and middle. After the left pseudo symbol stops, when the right pseudo symbol stops at the same symbol as the left pseudo symbol, it reaches the reach state, and the middle symbol changes in the normal display position until the end time of change, the character appears, or the background changes Or a super reach (corresponding to XX reach described later) effect that performs a special effect in which the variation pattern of the pseudo symbol changes. Based on this configuration, the content referred to in S645 is based on the pseudo-design to be confirmed, whether it is a big hit or not, whether the big hit is a 15-round big hit operation or a 6-round big hit operation, and whether or not it is a big hit Check whether it is super reach or normal reach and whether it is the reference valid period set for each variation pattern.

  The reference valid period set for each variation pattern described above will be described with reference to FIGS. FIG. 11 is a timing chart showing the effective reference time for super reach. The suggested symbol effect executed by the sub integrated control device 53 by receiving the determination result command from the main control device 50 is constant (4 seconds) every time, and the reference effective period is determined during the reference effective period. Whenever a command is received, it is set in a range in which the suggestive effect ends before it is developed into “SP reach”. The illustrated timing chart is a case where the determination result command is received immediately before the end of the reference valid period (A), and even in this case, the suggestion effect is ended immediately before the SP reach development (B). .

  Therefore, the reference valid period when the fluctuation pattern is super reach is 14 seconds from the start of fluctuation when the number of reserved memories is 0 to 1. When the number of reserved memories is 2, 10 seconds from the start of fluctuation. When the number of reserved storage is 3, it is 6 seconds from the start of fluctuation. In the normal state, the pachinko machine according to the present embodiment has a configuration in which the variation time until the left symbol stops is changed according to the number of reserved memories.

  FIG. 12 is a timing chart showing the reference valid time of normal reach. If the fluctuation pattern is normal reach, the time from reach development to final display will be 4 to 8 seconds, and the reference valid time is the range in which the suggestion effect ends before final display in the shortest time when normal reach is reached. Is set. The illustrated timing chart shows that when the determination result command is received immediately before the end of the reference valid period (C), the suggestion effect ends immediately before (D) the final display is confirmed in the shortest time.

  Therefore, the reference valid period when the fluctuation pattern is normal reach is 10 seconds from the start of fluctuation when the number of reserved memories is 0 to 1. If the number of pending storage is 2, 6 seconds from the start of fluctuation. When the number of reserved memories is 3, it is 2 seconds from the start of fluctuation.

  FIG. 13 is a timing chart showing the reference valid time of deviation fluctuation. When the fluctuation pattern is a deviation fluctuation, it is set within a range where the suggestive effect is finished before the outlier symbol is displayed in a fixed manner. The illustrated timing chart indicates that when the determination result command is received immediately before the end of the reference period (E), the suggestion effect ends immediately before the final display (F).

  Therefore, the reference valid period when the variation pattern is out of order is 6 seconds from the start of variation when the number of reserved storage is 0 to 1. When the number of pending storage is 2, 2 seconds from the start of fluctuation. When the number of reserved storage is 3, it is 1 second from the start of fluctuation.

Returning to FIG. 10, S6 is followed 50 determines whether there was a reference lifetime of the referenced variation pattern (S65 5). If the determination is negative (S65 5 : no), the process returns, and if the determination is affirmative (S65 5 : yes), the suggestion symbol that suggests the determination result of the special symbol is selected based on the referenced variation pattern (S6 60 ) (in the present invention). Corresponds to suggested symbol selection means).

S615, S6 3 0 or S6 is followed 60, while transmitting an instruction to display the suggested design effect determining displayed after the variable display suggestions symbol selected to effect symbol display device 54b to effect symbol control unit 54a (S66 5 ) (Corresponds to the suggested symbol display means in the present invention) Return. In the case where the variation pattern is not the reference valid period (S65 5 : no), the configuration has been described in which the suggestion symbol is not selected. However, in this case, the suggestion symbol indicating the deviation of the normal symbol lottery may be selected. In that case, when it is determined that the content of the determination result command is to execute the suggested symbol effect other than long open (S6 0 5: yes), the suggested effect is always performed, and the execution determination random value is set to other than long open. It can be set as the appearance rate of the suggestion effect.

Or, the determination result becomes a command reception process, the determination result command reception process corresponds to suggest effect determination unit of the present invention, S615, S6 3 0, S6 60 is hit suggestive symbol selection unit, S66 5 suggested symbol Corresponds to display means. In this embodiment, when the content of the determination result command indicates the long opening of the ordinary electric accessory 40, if the special symbol is changing, the suggestion symbol that suggests the long opening is always selected in S615. Yes. Further, S6 in 60 is to select a suggested suggest symbol lottery result of the special symbols based on the variation pattern of the pseudo symbols in change, extracted random number with (e.g. S6 35 extracted execution determination random number) You may select a suggestion symbol.

  Next, the display content of the effect symbol display device 54b will be described with reference to FIG. As described above, the pseudo symbol corresponding to the special symbol is composed of the three types of left, middle, and right, and is displayed in the center of the screen, and from top to bottom every time a change instruction command is received from the main controller 50. Display the fluctuation of.

  When the instruction signal is transmitted in S660, the suggestive symbol appears below the middle pseudo symbol, and the implied symbol effect display (including a confirmed display) is performed for 4 seconds that fluctuates from top to bottom in the appearing frame. Therefore, the suggested symbol is not displayed on the produced symbol display device 54b outside the suggested symbol effect display period.

  There are seven types of suggested symbols as shown in FIG. 15, and each symbol suggests different contents. Specifically, the symbol shown in Table 1 suggests that the ordinary electric utility 40 is won by long open (selected in S615). The symbol shown in Table 2 suggests that the ordinary electric utility 40 is won by short-opening (selected in S640). The symbol shown in Table 3 (Tatsuyoshi Kumano “smile”) suggests that the special symbol wins the big hit that the prize winning opening 33a opens 15 times (selected in S655). The symbol shown in Table 4 (Tatsuyoshi Kumano) suggests that the special symbol wins the jackpot that the big prize opening 33a opens six times (selected in S655). The symbol shown in Table 5 suggests that the fluctuating pseudo symbol effect develops into super reach (selected in S655). The symbol shown in Table 6 suggests that the fake symbol effect during the change develops into a normal reach (selected in S655). The symbol shown in Table 7 indicates that the fluctuating pseudo symbol effect and the normal symbol are out of place (selected in S655).

  FIG. 16 is a diagram showing a flow from when the sub integrated control device 53 receives the determination result command to when the suggestion symbol is displayed. When the determination result command is received and the content of the received determination result command indicates that the ordinary electric utility 40 is long open and the special symbol (pseudo symbol) is changing, 1 in FIG. select. If the content of the received determination result command indicates that the ordinary electric accessory 40 is short-circuited and the special symbol (pseudo symbol) is changing, 2 in FIG. 15 is selected as the suggestion symbol to be confirmed. If the content of the received determination result command indicates a deviation, an execution determination random number is extracted, and an implied symbol effect execution determination is performed as to whether or not the extracted random number value is a value for executing the implied symbol effect.

  If the extracted random value is the execution value of the suggested symbol effect, and the special symbol (pseudo symbol) is changing, the change pattern of the pseudo symbol being executed is referred to. The suggested symbol is selected according to the lottery result of the special symbol shown.

  FIG. 17 shows a case in which an implied symbol effect is performed when the sub integrated control device 53 receives from the main control device 50 a variation instruction command for instructing the pseudo symbol variation start (S540, S545, S550 in FIG. 9). It is a graph which shows the kind of suggestion symbol displayed on the basis of S555. The specific content is the same as the content obtained by removing the two types of suggested symbols that suggest the opening of the ordinary electric utility 40 from the suggested symbols in FIG. Therefore, depending on the content of the symbol, it is impossible to discriminate whether the suggested symbol effect is triggered by the lottery result of the normal symbol or the suggested symbol effect is triggered by the lottery of the special symbol.

  FIG. 18 is a diagram showing a flow from when the sub integrated control device 53 receives the change instruction command to when the suggested symbol is displayed (in response to a special symbol lottery). If the fluctuation instruction command is received and the extracted distributed random number is the execution value of the suggested symbol effect, the contents of the received fluctuation instruction command (the contents of the fluctuation pattern) are referred to and the lottery result of the special symbol indicated by the referenced fluctuation pattern is obtained. Select the suggested symbol accordingly. In this case, the suggested symbol selection content is the same as the content selected with reference to the variation pattern when the determination result command shown in FIG.

  In this way, by providing the suggestion symbol effect starting from reception of the determination result of the normal symbol shown in FIG. 16 and the suggestion symbol effect starting from the lottery result of the special symbol shown in FIG. 18, the start of the suggestion symbol effect is started. The timing can be irregular (starting during a special symbol change or starting during a normal symbol change). Further, when the lottery result of the special symbol is used as a cause, the lottery result of the special symbol can be suggested even when the normal symbol is long open.

  In this embodiment, the suggested symbol effect caused by the special symbol and the suggested symbol effect caused by the normal symbol are judged and executed respectively, but when one effect is already being executed, the other executes the effect. A configuration in which the determination process of whether or not is not performed is conceivable. In addition, if there are multiple suggestion effect presentation times and if the suggestion effect time is longer than the variation time of the normal symbol, the suggestion effect is received even if a new judgment result command is received while the suggestion effect caused by the normal symbol is being executed. A configuration in which the process for determining whether or not to execute is not performed is also conceivable. The same is true for special symbols. In addition, using the prefetch determination, a suggestion symbol effect may be performed in a form that includes other than the variation. In that case, you may provide the design which suggests the determination content in reservation to a suggestion design.

  The above is the description of the embodiment. By selecting the start time of the special figure suggestion effect from a plurality of time settings in S550 of FIG. 9, the player receives the suggestion effect that starts when the change instruction command is received and the reception of the normal symbol determination result command. It is difficult to distinguish from the suggestion effect that starts with the opportunity, and it is not possible to determine whether the suggestion effect suggests the result of a normal symbol that is fluctuating or the result of a special symbol. You will be interested.

  As described above, according to the bullet ball game machine of the present invention, it is possible to suggest a lottery result of a special symbol and a normal symbol with one effect. Therefore, the present invention can be applied to a ball game machine including a normal symbol, a special symbol, and an effect symbol display device.
