  Exemplary embodiments of a game storage medium management device, a game storage medium management system, and a game storage medium management method according to the present invention will be described below in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. Here, a 4-yen corner that lends pachinko balls for 4 yen per ball and a 1-yen corner that lends pachinko balls for 1 yen per ball are also provided in the amusement store, and the amusement store has a 4-yen corner and a 1-yen corner. The case where the savings service is provided to both will be explained.

  First, the system configuration of the storage management system according to the present embodiment will be described. FIG. 1 is a diagram illustrating a system configuration of a storage management system according to the present embodiment. This storage ball management system is a system that provides a storage ball service to members registered in a game store such as a pachinko parlor.

  As shown in the figure, the game store is provided with a four-circle corner composed of the pachinko machine 10a and the inter-unit 20a and a one-circle corner composed of the pachinko machine 10b and the inter-unit 20b. This 4-yen corner is an island that lends 25 balls to players for 4 yen per ball, or 100 yen, and the 1-yen corner is 100 balls for 1 yen per player, or 100 yen. It is an island that lends a ball. The reason for providing a 1-yen corner with a low rental rate is mainly to enable trial hitting by the player and to obtain information on the player's customer rating and evaluation with respect to the gaming machine.

  The pachinko machine 10a and the pachinko machine 10b are game machines that provide a pachinko game using pachinko balls to a player, and there is no difference between the 4-yen corner and the 1-yen corner. However, the pachinko machine 10b provided at the 1-yen corner is not a gaming machine responsible for sales of amusement stores, but is often provided with a new machine that will be newly introduced into the gaming stores. This is because the player can try out a new machine without investing a lot.

  The inter-unit 20a is a unit that lends a 4-yen ball with cash and replays a stored ball using a membership card. For example, when a 1000-yen bill is inserted into the inter-unit 20a, the inter-unit An instruction to throw out 250 balls is given from the unit 20a to the pachinko machine 10a. On the other hand, the inter-unit unit 20b is a unit that lends a 1 yen ball with cash and replays a stored ball using a membership card. For example, when a 1000-yen bill is inserted into the inter-unit unit 20b, An instruction to throw out 1000 balls is issued from the inter-unit 20b to the pachinko machine 10b.

  The player can replay the stored balls using these inter-unit units 20a and 20b, and the personal identification number is entered from the numeric keypad with the player inserting a membership card into the card insertion slot of the inter-unit unit 20a or 20b. And press the predetermined replay button to enter the membership card ID, PIN, 1-yen corner or 4-yen corner type (hereinafter referred to as “corner type information”), and the unit that uniquely identifies the unit between the units. A replay request signal including the inter-unit identification information is transmitted to the stored ball management device 50, and the stored balls can be withdrawn within the range of the stored ball balance. Here, it is assumed that the number of balls withdrawn from the savings account by one replay operation is fixed.

  The counter 30 is a counter that counts the number of pachinko balls acquired by the player, and has a function of storing the counted number of pachinko balls. Specifically, the member card received from the player by the store clerk is inserted into the card insertion slot of the counter 30 and a pachinko ball is inserted, and the above corner type information (4 yen corner or 1 yen corner separately) is designated. Then, a storage request signal including the membership card ID, the number of pachinko balls stored as a counting result, and corner type information is transmitted to the storage management device 50.

  The counting machine 30 can also issue a receipt in which the number of pachinko balls counted is barcode-printed. When the store clerk counts pachinko balls and designates the corner type information and presses the receipt issue button, the pachinko balls A receipt on which the number and corner type information are barcode printed is issued.

  In this embodiment, a single counter 30 is used to count both pachinko balls acquired by the player at the 4-yen corner and pachinko balls acquired by the player at the 1-yen corner. The invention is not limited to this, and a counter dedicated to the four-round corner and a counter dedicated to the one-round corner can be separately provided. In such a case, it is possible to eliminate the need for the store clerk to specify the corner type information.

  The POS terminal 40 is a prize exchange terminal device that is arranged at a counter in an amusement store and includes a membership card reader and a barcode reader. The POS terminal 40 obtains the number of pachinko balls and corner type information from the barcode printed on the receipt. Not only can you read and use it when exchanging prizes, but you can also use your membership card to store money. Specifically, when the receipt is read by the bar code reader provided in the POS terminal 40, the member card is inserted into the card reader and the storage button is pressed, the member card ID, the number of pachinko balls, 4 yen corner or 1 A storage ball request signal including a circle corner is transmitted to the storage management device 50.

  Further, at the POS terminal 40, prizes can be exchanged from the deposited storage balls. Specifically, when a player inputs a password with a member card inserted into a card reader, and a store clerk performs a storage check operation, a storage ball confirmation signal including the member card ID and the password is stored in the storage management device 50. Are displayed, and the balances of the 4 yen corner and 1 yen corner are displayed. Thereafter, prizes will be exchanged within the range of the balance of the stored balls.

  In addition, the POS terminal 40 can be used to transfer the number of stored balls between the same player's stored account. For example, when there are 4000 1-yen stored balls, this is transferred to 1000 4-yen stored balls. be able to. Specifically, when a member card is inserted into the card insertion slot of the POS terminal 40 and a personal identification number is input and a transfer source corner type and a transfer storage ball number are designated, a member card ID, a personal identification number, transfer source corner type information, A transfer request signal including the number of transferred storage balls is transmitted to the storage management device 50.

  The storage management device 50 is a management device that manages the number of storages of each corner type for each membership card ID using a storage management table 54a described later, and receives a storage request signal from the counter 30 or the POS terminal 40. If the number of balls is added to the corresponding corner type savings account of the corresponding membership card ID and a replay request signal is received from the inter-unit 20a or 20b, from the corresponding corner type savings account of the corresponding membership card ID Subtract the number of replayed balls.

  Further, when receiving the transfer request signal from the POS terminal 40, the stored ball management device 50 performs a transfer process of the number of stored balls between a plurality of stored account of the same player. However, even if there is the number of transferred balls in the transfer source storage account, the transfer process is not performed if it does not conform to a certain transfer rule.

  Next, the configuration of the storage ball management device 50 shown in FIG. 1 will be described. FIG. 2 is a functional block diagram showing the configuration of the storage ball management device 50 shown in FIG. As shown in the figure, the storage management device 50 includes an input unit 51, a display unit 52, an interface unit (I / F unit) 53, a storage unit 54, and a control unit 55.

  The input unit 51 is an input device such as a keyboard or a mouse, the display unit 52 is a display device such as a liquid crystal panel or a display, and the I / F unit 53 is an inter-unit unit 20a or 20b, a counter 30 or a POS. It is an interface for performing data communication with the terminal 40.

  The storage unit 54 is a storage device such as a hard disk device or a nonvolatile memory, and stores a storage management table 54a and transfer log data 54b. As shown in FIG. 3, the storage management table 54a stores the number of stored balls in the 4-yen savings account (number of 4-yen savings) and the number of stored balls in the 1-yen savings account (number of 1-yen savings) for each member card ID of each member. To do. In the example of FIG. 3, the number of 4-yen savings for the membership card ID “1234” is 1000, the number of 1-yen savings is 400, the number of 4-yen savings for the member card ID “5678” is 200, and the number of 1-yen savings. Shows a case where there are 8000.

  The transfer log data 54b is log data that sequentially stores data of transfer processing results between storage account for the same member card ID. The transfer log data 54b is used when an abnormality occurs in the transfer process or when the transfer situation is analyzed macroscopically.

  The control unit 55 is a control unit that controls the entire storage management device 50, and includes a storage management unit 55a and a transfer processing unit 55b. Actually, a program stored in a ROM or a non-volatile memory (not shown) is loaded on the CPU and executed, and the storage management unit 55a and the transfer processing unit 55b execute corresponding processes.

  The storage management unit 55a is a management unit that manages the number of stored balls of each player (member) in the 4-yen storage account and the 1-yen storage account using the storage management table 55a. When a request signal is received, the number of stored balls is added to the corresponding stored account. In addition, if a replay request signal is received from the inter-unit unit 20a or 20b, the personal identification is legitimately confirmed using the personal identification number, and when there is a replay savings balance in the corresponding savings account, Subtract the number of replayed balls.

  The transfer processing unit 55b is a processing unit that performs a transfer process between the stored account associated with the same membership card ID on condition that the transfer processing unit 55b conforms to a certain transfer rule. For example, if a transfer process from a 4-yen savings account to a 1-yen savings account is permitted, the player will stay in the 1-yen corner for trial games, which is contrary to the original purpose of the 1-yen corner. Therefore, transfer from 4 yen savings account to 1 yen savings account is not allowed. On the other hand, transfer processing from a 1 yen savings account to a 4 yen savings account is permitted. For players, there is a great need to play in the 4-yen corner using the 1-yen corner storage ball, and for the game store, it is possible to improve the profit rate by promoting games in the high-yield 4-yen corner. is there.

  Specifically, if the transfer request signal is received from the POS terminal 40, the member authentication is performed using the member card ID and the personal identification number. If it is valid, the transfer source corner type information is used to determine the transfer source storage account. And confirm whether or not the account balance of the transfer source storage account is equal to or more than the number of transfer storage balls. As a result, if the account balance is greater than or equal to the number of transfer deposits, it is determined whether or not the transfer rules are met. If the transfer balance is met, the transfer from the transfer source storage account (for example, a 1 yen savings account) to the other Transfer the number of transferred balls to a stored account (for example, a 4-yen stored account).

  Next, the ball storing process using the counter 30 shown in FIG. 1 will be described. FIG. 4 is an explanatory diagram for explaining a ball storage process using the counter 30 shown in FIG. As shown in the figure, the player inserts a membership card into the card insertion slot of the counter 30 (step S101), inserts the acquired pachinko ball (step S102), selects the corner type, and operates a storage button. Is pressed (step S103).

  When such a series of operations is performed, a storage request signal is transmitted from the counter 30 to the storage management device 50 (step S104). This storage ball request signal includes the membership card ID, the number of storage balls made up of the number of pachinko balls counted by the counter 30, and corner type information.

  Then, the storage management device 50 that has received this storage request signal specifies a storage account that is a storage target from the membership card ID and corner type information, and performs storage registration processing for adding the number of storages to the specified storage account. (Step S105). In the above series of explanations, for convenience of explanation, the case where all the pachinko balls counted by the counter 30 are stored is shown, but a part of the counted pachinko balls can also be used as the number of stored balls. In such a case, the player needs to specify the number of stored balls.

  Next, replay processing using the inter-unit unit 20a shown in FIG. 1 will be described. FIG. 5 is an explanatory diagram for explaining a replay process using the inter-unit unit 20a shown in FIG. As shown in the figure, the player inserts a membership card into the card slot of the inter-unit unit 20a (step S201), inputs a personal identification number using a numeric keypad (not shown), and presses the replay button. A replay operation is performed (step S202).

  When such a series of operations is performed, a replay request signal is transmitted from the inter-unit unit 20a to the storage ball management device 50 (step S203). This replay request signal includes the member card ID, the password, and the corner information type and the unit unit identification information stored in the unit 20a.

  The storage management device 50 that has received this replay request signal identifies the storage account to be replayed, performs identity verification using a personal identification number, and has an account balance equal to or greater than the replay amount in the storage account. Re-playability determination whether or not there exists (step S204), and when the identity confirmation result is correct and the account balance also exists, the number of stored balls subtraction processing for subtracting the number of re-played balls from the target storage account (Step S205), and a replay permission signal is transmitted to the inter-unit unit 20a (step S206). The inter-unit 20a that has received the replay permission signal instructs the pachinko machine 10a to throw out a replay ball.

  Next, the storage ball transfer process using the POS terminal 40 shown in FIG. 1 will be described. FIG. 6 is an explanatory diagram for explaining the transfer process of the stored balls using the POS terminal 40 shown in FIG. As shown in the figure, the store clerk inputs a personal identification number from a numeric keypad (not shown) with the membership card inserted into the card insertion slot of the POS terminal 40 (step S301), and designates the transfer source corner type and the number of transferred storage balls. A stored money transfer operation is performed (step S302).

  When such a series of operations is performed, a transfer request signal is transmitted from the POS terminal 40 to the storage management device 50 (step S303). This transfer request signal includes a member card ID, a personal identification number, transfer source corner type information, and the number of transferred storage balls.

  Then, the storage management device 50 that has received this transfer request signal performs identity verification based on the membership card ID and PIN, and whether or not the transfer source account has an account balance equal to or greater than the number of transferred storage balls conforms to the transfer rules. It is determined whether transfer is possible or not (step S304). As a result, if the identity verification result is correct, conforms to the transfer rule, has an account balance in the transfer source account, and conforms to the transfer rule, the transfer process between the target savings accounts is performed (step S305). ), A transfer completion signal is transmitted to the POS terminal 40 (step S306), and the result is displayed on the POS terminal 40.

  Next, a processing procedure at the time of receiving a transfer request signal in the storage management device 50 shown in FIG. 1 will be described. FIG. 7 is a flowchart showing a processing procedure when receiving a transfer request signal in the storage management device 50 shown in FIG. Here, for convenience of explanation, explanation of identity verification using a password is omitted.

  As shown in the figure, when receiving the transfer request signal (step S401), the storage management device 50 searches for a transfer source storage account corresponding to the member card ID and transfer source corner information (step S402). Then, it is confirmed whether or not there is a stored balance exceeding the number of transferred storage balls in this transfer source storage account (step S403). If there is a stored balance exceeding the number of transferred storage balls (Yes at step S403), a transfer rule is determined. Is checked (step S404).

  As a result, when the transfer rule is met (Yes at Step S404), the transfer processing of the transfer number of transferred balls from the transfer source storage account of the member card ID to the other storage account is performed (Step S405), and the transfer result Is recorded in the transfer log data 54b (step S406), and a transfer completion signal is transmitted to the POS terminal 40 (step S407).

  In addition, when there is no storage balance equal to or more than the number of transferred storage balls (No at Step S403), or when it does not conform to the transfer rule (No at Step S404), an error signal is transmitted to the POS terminal 40 (Step S403). S408) The process ends.

  Next, the transfer rule used in step S404 in FIG. 7 will be described. FIG. 8A is an explanatory diagram for explaining the transfer rule used in step S404 of FIG. 7, and FIG. 8B is an explanatory diagram of a state transition diagram corresponding to the transfer rule shown in FIG. .

  As shown in FIG. 8A and FIG. 8B, in this embodiment, the replay at the 4-yen corner of the 1-yen coin and the replay at the 1-yen corner of the 1-yen coin are recognized as having no problem. . On the other hand, re-playing at the 1-yen corner of 4-yen savings is not allowed. If you increase the number of pachinko balls earned at the 4-yen corner and allow the player to play at the 1-yen corner, the result is that one player will be allowed to play pachinko for a long time. This is because it will take away the opportunity to play a trial game in the circle corner.

  On the other hand, re-playing of 1-yen coins at the 4-yen corner is positively accepted. As a result, a player who has played a trial game in the 1-yen corner can be moved to the 4-yen corner, and more players can be given a chance to try the game in the 1-yen corner. This is because it is possible to cancel the savings earned at the yen corner at the 4-yen corner. Also, from the viewpoint of the player, not only is there a need to continue to play in the 1-yen corner, but there is also a great need to play in the 4-yen corner using the money earned in this 1-yen corner. For these reasons, when transferring 1-yen savings account to a 4-yen account, instead of simply reducing the number of transferred savings to 1/4, transfer is done at 1/3 (1000 yen for 1 yen savings). Is preferably transferred to 330 yen 4-yen storage instead of 250 to 4-yen savings).

  As described above, in this embodiment, each game using the storage management table 54a in which the storage management unit 55a of the storage management device 50 manages the 4-yen storage account and the 1-yen storage account in association with the membership card ID. The number of stored balls of the customer is managed, and the transfer processing unit 55b receives the transfer request signal from the POS terminal 40 arranged in the amusement store, and manages the stored ball on condition that the transfer rule is met. Since it is configured to perform the savings transfer process between the savings accounts in the table 54a, it is possible to rent out gaming media at a plurality of lending rates, and to allow the storage of gaming media lent at each lending rate. In addition, it is possible to carry out a savings ball transfer that meets the needs of the player.

  In this embodiment, the case where the lending rate is 4 yen and 1 yen has been described, but the present invention is not limited to this, and can be applied to various cases where a plurality of lending rates are operated. it can. Moreover, although the present Example demonstrated the case where the pachinko ball was stored, this invention is not limited to this, It can also apply to the storage medal at the time of introduce | transducing a some loan rate.

  Furthermore, in the present embodiment, the case where the POS terminal 40 is used as a transfer terminal is shown, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the case where a transfer request is made using an inter-unit unit or a transfer dedicated machine is also provided. Can be applied.

  Further, in this embodiment, for the sake of convenience of explanation, a detailed description of the upper limit of storage balls at the time of transfer processing is omitted. However, when the number of accumulated transfer storage balls within a predetermined period is within a predetermined value, the stored ball management table 54a By performing a savings transfer process between these savings accounts, it is possible to balance the needs of the player and the needs of the amusement store by limiting the number of transfers from the 4-yen savings to 1-yen savings to a predetermined number.
