Description

The present invention relates to a game arcade system corresponding to the game machine to perform the various effects of for notifying the game result.

  Conventionally, gaming machines installed in amusement halls perform various effects in order to increase the player's willingness to play. For example, as described in Patent Document 1, in a pachinko gaming machine, it is common to execute a reach effect that informs the expectation level of winning a big hit due to symbol variation.

  When a reach production occurs on any pachinko machine, the player who is walking in the surrounding aisle will be interested in whether the reach production corresponds to a big win or lose. There is. Some players who are interested stop to see the reach and continue to watch until they can confirm the success or failure of the jackpot.

JP 2013-140 A

  However, there are many players who feel uncomfortable about the reach performance being performed by the nearby players while they are playing the pachinko machines they are playing. Some of these players dislike being seen by other players and turn up the game early. As for the player on the side of watching, since the player's game is watched eagerly, the time for actually playing the game may be shortened. If these game tendencies increase, the game time of each player is shortened, and there is a possibility that the operating rate of the gaming machine installed in the game hall is lowered.

The present invention has been made in view of the above-described conventional problems, and is an invention for providing a game hall system capable of avoiding an excessive increase in the number of players watching a game.

The present invention provides a privilege granting means for granting a privilege to a player when a predetermined game result is obtained;
Effect execution means for executing a special effect for notifying the player of the game result;
When the effect execution means is executing the special effect, result information corresponding to the game result notified by the special effect is transmitted so that a portable terminal possessed by a player within a predetermined range can receive the result information. Result information transmitting means to
A game machine ID for specifying a gaming machine, and result information generating means for generating data combining the result information, wherein the result information transmitting means outputs the data generated by the result information generating means Thus, the gaming machine system corresponding to the gaming machine that transmits the gaming machine ID and the result information,
The portable terminal is
Receiving means for receiving the gaming machine ID and the result information transmitted by the gaming machine;
A gaming machine specifying means for specifying a gaming machine that outputs the result information by the gaming machine ID when the result information is received;
The results gaming machine identification means has identified the gaming machine, if a mobile terminal which the player in a game at a gaming machine that is running the special effect possessed, whether the game result of the special effect can not be confirmed Or, while performing a notification that is difficult to confirm , if the portable terminal is owned by a player in the vicinity different from the player who is playing the game, the notification that the game result can be confirmed during the execution of the special effect is performed. in game arcade system characterized (claim 1).

The gaming machine according to the present invention includes a result information transmitting means for transmitting result information corresponding to a game result notified by a special effect, and a portable terminal of a peripheral player instead of the player who generated the special effect being executed. And result information generating means for generating result information so that it can be confirmed.

  According to this gaming machine, the game result notified by the special effect can be notified using a portable terminal possessed by a nearby player. If the game result is notified to the surrounding players, the degree of interest of the surrounding players with respect to the special effect being executed can be suppressed. Thereby, it is possible to suppress the possibility that the number of players watching the special effect will increase, and to suppress the unpleasant feeling that the player who has generated the special effect may feel. If such discomfort can be suppressed, it is possible to turn off the game early because it is not seen by nearby players, or to reduce the number of players who do not play games, and the operation of gaming machines installed in the game hall The rate can be improved. In addition, for the player on the side to watch, there is a high possibility that the player will stop watching after receiving the game result notification. If the viewing time is reduced, the time for the player to actually play is increased, and the operating rate of the gaming machine is improved.

  On the other hand, in the portable terminal possessed by the player who generated the special effect, the result of the special effect cannot be confirmed or is difficult to confirm. For this reason, there is little possibility that the gaming machine himself can identify the result of the special effect and is awakened during the execution of the special effect.

In addition, when an advantageous game result that gives the privilege is notified, compared to a case where an unfavorable game result is notified, there is a tendency for more players to keep watching the special performance until the end. It is in. If the player who generated the special effect is the player, the game result notified by the special effect can be predicted depending on whether or not the surrounding players continue watching. That is, in the gaming machine according to the present invention, a new gaming property is realized in which a gaming result is predicted from the trend of surrounding players during the reach performance.

Game machine according to the present invention as described above, a gaming machine can be avoided in advance that a player that haunts game becomes too large.

As the gaming machine, there are a pachinko gaming machine which is played by using (launching) a ball as a gaming medium, a slot machine which generates a winning when a predetermined winning symbol is stopped and displayed. As a pachinko gaming machine, it may be a type that pays out balls according to winnings, and is a so-called enclosed pachinko gaming machine in which balls are fired using points and points are awarded according to winnings. Also good. The slot machine may be of a type that is played using game media such as medals and coins, but it is possible to play using points (betting) without using game media, and points when winning a prize. May be a so-called complete credit type slot machine. Further, it may be a parrot (R) that uses balls as game media.

The gaming machine preferably includes registration means for registering a portable terminal possessed by the player in the game so as to be distinguishable from a portable terminal possessed by the peripheral player .
If a portable terminal is registered in a gaming machine that is being played, it is possible to distinguish between a portable terminal possessed by the player of the gaming machine and a portable terminal possessed by a nearby player. If there is such a distinction, there will be a difference in the ease of confirming the game result between the portable terminal possessed by the surrounding players and the portable terminal of the player who has generated the special performance being executed. Further, the result information can be easily generated.

It is preferable that the result information generating unit included in the gaming machine generates the result information as sound data, and the result information transmitting unit outputs a sound including the sound data so that the portable terminal can receive the result information .
When outputting result information as sound data, it becomes easy for an unspecified portable terminal to receive result information. If the sound data is output using a structure that outputs sound such as a production sound, it is not necessary to newly provide a structure for transmitting the result information, and an increase in cost can be avoided.

Mobile terminal according to the present invention, an alarm about the game result corresponding to the result information when receiving the result information, if the result information from the same gaming machine has received a predetermined number of times, without notifying the game result Or a result notifying means for making it difficult for the player to specify the game result (claim 2) .

It said portable terminal is a terminal that functions as a receiver for receiving the result information which the gaming machine is sent. This portable terminal can specify the game machine from which the result information is output, and when the result information is received a predetermined number of times from the same game machine, the game result is not notified or the player specifies the game result. Make it difficult.

When notification of the game result of the same gaming machine is performed many times on the same portable terminal, it is highly likely that the portable terminal is possessed by the player who is playing the game. Since the portable terminal according to the present invention can cope with not receiving the game result when the result information is received a predetermined number of times from the same gaming machine, it avoids the situation where the gaming result of the same gaming machine is continuously reported. it can.
As described above, in the mobile terminal according to the present invention , there is a low possibility that notification is performed even though the mobile terminal is highly likely to be a mobile terminal of a player who is playing a game.

The embodiment of the present invention will be specifically described with reference to the following examples.
Example 1
This example is a pachinko game that informs the player of the reach performance of the jackpot lottery result (game result) not to the player who generated the reach effect during execution of the reach effect (special effect). It is the example regarding the portable terminal 2 for receiving the apparatus 1 and alerting | reporting. The contents will be described with reference to FIGS.

  In the amusement hall, a gaming machine island in which pachinko gaming machines 1 are installed side by side is formed. A plurality of gaming machine islands are provided in the game hall, and a passage is formed between the gaming machine islands facing each other. In the amusement hall, as shown in FIG. 1, a relay device 30 installed for every two pachinko gaming machines 1, a management device 5, a counting device and a payment device (not shown) are connected to a communication network 31. In addition to the pachinko gaming machine 1, a stand lamp (not shown) attached to each pachinko gaming machine 1 and a lending machine 32 are connected to the relay device 30 in a communicable state. In the amusement hall, a gaming hall system 3 for individually managing a combination of the pachinko gaming machine 1, the lending machine 32, and the table lamp by the management device 5 is constructed.

Hereinafter, the pachinko gaming machine 1 and the portable terminal 2 of this example will be described.
(Pachinko machines)
As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the pachinko gaming machine 1 is a gaming machine that is played by launching a ball, which is a gaming medium, toward the gaming area 130. The pachinko gaming machine 1 is a so-called seven machine that executes a jackpot lottery in response to winning at the start winning opening 11 and displays a jackpot symbol when a jackpot is won to generate a jackpot state (privilege).

  A game area 130 is formed on the front surface of the pachinko gaming machine 1 so as to face the player. Speakers 131 and decorative lamps 132 are arranged on both upper sides of the game area 130. Below the game area 130, an upper plate 135 for supplying balls to a launching device (not shown) and a lower plate 137 for storing balls that cannot be stored in the upper plate 135 are provided. On the lower right side of the upper plate 135, an operation handle 15 that is operated by the player to fire a ball is provided.

  In particular, in the pachinko gaming machine 1 of this example, the authentication area 12 of the mobile terminal 2 is provided at the lower right of the gaming area 130. This authentication area 12 is a reading surface of the terminal authentication unit 120 incorporated therein. The terminal authentication unit 120 reads a terminal ID that is an individual identification number recorded on a SIM card (not shown, IC card) of the mobile terminal 2 that is close to the authentication area 12.

  The game area 130 is an area where balls, which are game media, flow down. In the game area 130, the start winning opening 11, the passing gate 14, the big winning device 16, and the like are arranged around the display device 19 including the liquid crystal display unit 190. At the bottom of the game area 130, an out hole 138 is opened for collecting balls that have flowed down without winning.

  The passing gate 14 is a gate that detects a passing ball. The payout of the winning ball is not set to the passing gate 14 that only allows the ball to pass. When the ball passes through the passing gate 14, a random number for lottery extraction for normal symbol determination (hereinafter referred to as general symbol determination) is extracted, and general symbol determination is executed. Whether or not to determine the common map is notified by a general map display unit (not shown). The common map display unit stops and displays either ○ or × after the normal map fluctuation display for a predetermined time to notify the success or failure.

  The start winning port 11 is a winning port (three payout balls) that triggers a lottery lottery. When a ball wins the start winning opening 11, a lottery random number for jackpot lottery is extracted and the jackpot lottery is executed. The start winning opening 11 is constituted by an electric tulip having a pair of movable blades provided in the opening. This electric tulip will be in an open state when it is won by the usual figure determination.

  The big winning device 16 is a variable winning device called a so-called attacker, which has a big winning opening 160. The big prize opening 160 is opened when a big hit state occurs. It should be noted that the payout at the time of winning the grand prize opening 160 is 15 balls.

  The display device 19 is an effect device having a function of notifying whether or not the big hit lottery is successful. The display device 19 that constitutes this notification function notifies the success or failure of the big hit lottery by means of three-digit figures arranged side by side. When the jackpot lottery is won, the third digit number is stopped and displayed on the liquid crystal display unit 190 to notify the jackpot winning. In the pachinko gaming machine 1, a jackpot state (privilege) occurs following the notification of the jackpot winning by the display device 19. When the big win state occurs, the round process of opening the big winning opening 160 is repeatedly executed 16 times.

  In the display device 19, the three-digit number stops in the order of left symbol → right symbol → middle symbol. When the same symbol stops on the left and right, and then the same symbol stops at the center, when the jackpot is confirmed, the reach effect (special effect) is started. When the big win lottery is won, after the reach effect for a predetermined period, the same symbols as the left and right symbols stop at the center, and a three-digit number is displayed. On the other hand, when the big hit lottery is a loss, after reaching a predetermined period, a symbol different from the left and right symbols stops at the center, and the loss is confirmed.

The pachinko gaming machine 1 of this example incorporates a control board 10 on which a CPU, a ROM, a RAM, and the like are mounted, and realizes the functions as the following means by causing the CPU to execute a software program.
(1) Bonus granting means: means for granting a bonus that is a jackpot state to a player when a game result of winning a jackpot is obtained.
(2) Production execution means: means for executing reach production as a special production for notifying the player of the jackpot lottery result (game result).

(3) Result information transmitting means: means for transmitting result information representing the jackpot lottery result to the portable terminal 2 possessed by a nearby player during the execution of the reach effect. The result information transmission means of this example transmits high frequency sound data outside the audible band as result information. If the dedicated application is a mobile terminal 2 that has been downloaded in advance, the jackpot lottery result can be obtained by receiving sound data.

(4) Result information generating means: means for generating sound data capable of confirming the jackpot lottery result. In particular, the result information generating means of this example cannot confirm the jackpot lottery result on the portable terminal 2 possessed by the player who has generated the reach effect, while the jackpot lottery result is displayed on the portable terminal 2 of a nearby player. Sound data is generated so that it can be confirmed. The result information generating means generates information representing the jackpot lottery result (game result), and combines with this information the gaming machine ID of the reach production source and the sound data ID for specifying the reach production of each time. To generate sound data.
(5) Registration means: means for registering the mobile terminal 2 that is proximate to the authentication area 12 and authenticated by the terminal authentication unit 120. By registering the portable terminal 2 in the pachinko gaming machine 1, it is possible to distinguish between the portable terminal 2 possessed by the player who has generated the reach effect and the portable terminal 2 possessed by surrounding players. The registration means returns the gaming machine ID when the terminal ID can be read from the portable terminal 2 proximate to the authentication area 12. On the mobile terminal 2 side, a login state for a specific gaming machine is set using the received gaming machine ID. When the login state is set, a game history including game data such as out and safe is temporarily stored on the gaming machine side, and the game history is written to the portable terminal 2 when logging out.

(Mobile device)
In this example, as the mobile terminal 2 that receives sound data (result information) transmitted by the pachinko gaming machine 1, a multi-function mobile phone called a so-called smartphone is adopted.

  The mobile terminal 2 in FIG. 3 is a flat terminal having a thickness of about 1 cm. A display screen 250 of the liquid crystal display unit 251 is arranged in front of it. In FIG. 3, a speaker 231 is disposed on the left side of the display screen 250, and a power button 221 and a microphone 232 are disposed on the right side. The display screen 250 of the liquid crystal display unit 251 is a touch panel on which a touch operation can be performed by stacking touch sensor sheets 253 (FIG. 4).

  As shown in FIG. 4, the portable terminal 2 houses a control board 20 on which an electric circuit is formed. The control board 20 includes a camera board 240 on which a CCD element, a lens, and the like are mounted, an amplifier board 233 that drives the speaker 231, a power button 221, a touch sensor sheet 253, a liquid crystal display unit 251, a microphone 232, and the like. Electrically connected. The control board 20 is further provided with a slot (not shown) into which a SIM card in which an individual identification ID for specifying the mobile terminal 2 is recorded is inserted.

The control board 20 includes a CPU 21, ROM 22 and RAM 23 that are storage elements, an I / O unit 24 that forms an input / output interface, and the like.
The ROM 22 stores various processing programs to be executed by the CPU 21.
The RAM 23 is a readable / writable storage element that is also used for the work area of the CPU 21 and temporary writing.

The control board 20 has functions as the following means by causing the CPU 21 to execute a program read from the ROM 22.
(1) Receiving means: means for receiving sound data (result information) from the pachinko gaming machine 1.
(2) Game machine specifying means: means for specifying a game machine that is a transmission source of sound data. The gaming machine specifying means specifies a gaming machine as a transmission source using a gaming machine ID included in the sound data.
(3) Result notifying means: means for notifying the jackpot lottery result (game result) corresponding to the received sound data. When different sound data is received from a specific gaming machine for a predetermined number of times (for example, 3 times in 20 minutes), the gaming machine is identified as the gaming machine of the player who owns the portable terminal 2. The jackpot lottery result is not notified. Further, even when the gaming machine specified as the transmission source is a gaming machine to be logged in, the jackpot lottery result is not notified.

  Operations of the pachinko gaming machine 1 and the portable terminal 2 configured as described above will be described with reference to FIGS. FIG. 5 is a flowchart showing the flow of sound data generation processing executed by the control board 10 of the pachinko gaming machine 1. FIG. 7 is a flowchart showing the flow of processing by the control board 20 of the mobile terminal 2.

  In the sound data generation process (FIG. 5) by the pachinko gaming machine 1, sound data (result information) including the jackpot lottery result of the reach effect target is generated. First, the control board 10 determines whether or not it is the symbol variation in which the reach effect has occurred (S101). If it is the symbol variation in which the reach effect has occurred (S101: YES), the control board 10 determines whether or not the corresponding jackpot lottery result is a win (S102).

  When the jackpot lottery result corresponding to the reach effect is a win (S102: YES), the control board 10 generates winning information as the jackpot lottery result, and for the winning information, the gaming machine ID and Sound data is generated by combining the sound data ID (S103). On the other hand, if the jackpot lottery result corresponding to the reach effect is a loss (S102: NO), information on the loss as the jackpot lottery result is generated, and a gaming machine ID and sound data ID are assigned to the lose information. Sound data is generated in combination (S113).

  In this example, as shown in FIG. 6, sound in the audible frequency band for production such as music and voice is output from the speaker 131 during the reach production, and sound data outside the audible frequency band is reached once in parallel with the output. A configuration that repeatedly outputs during production is adopted. On the mobile terminal 2 side, sound data is received many times during the reach production. The sound data ID included in the sound data of this example is useful for determining on the mobile terminal 2 side whether or not the received sound data is newly received.

  Next, the portable terminal process by the control board 20 of the portable terminal 2 is demonstrated with reference to FIG. In the portable terminal process, the control board 20 first determines whether or not a login operation for bringing the portable terminal 2 close to the authentication area 12 of the pachinko gaming machine 1 has been performed (S201). When the login operation is performed (S201: YES), the control board 20 acquires the gaming machine ID and sets the login state (S202).

  When the login operation is not performed (S201: NO), the control board 20 determines whether or not sound data corresponding to the game result is newly received (S211). When the sound data is newly received (S211: YES), the control board 20 performs a determination regarding the gaming machine ID included in the sound data (S212). When the gaming machine ID included in the sound data is the gaming machine ID of the logged-in gaming machine (S212: YES), the control board 20 displays the non-notification screen in FIG. 8 indicating that the jackpot lottery result is not reported. It is displayed on the screen 250 (S213).

  The determination as to whether the sound data is newly received in step S211 is performed using the sound data ID included in the sound data. The sound data ID is different for each reach production. The control board 20 stores the sound data ID of the sound data received once before in order to determine whether or not the sound data is newly received. When the control board 20 continuously receives sound data having the same sound data ID, the control board 20 determines that the sound data has already been received and is not newly received sound data. On the other hand, when the current sound data ID is different from the previous one, it is determined that the sound data is newly received.

  When the gaming machine ID included in the sound data is not the gaming machine ID of the logged-in gaming machine (S212: NO), the control board 20 determines whether or not it is in a logged-in state (S221). For the portable terminal 2 that is determined to be in the login state (S221: YES), it can be determined that the login state is for a gaming machine different from the gaming machine that is in the reach effect by combination with the determination in step S211: NO. The control board 20 of the portable terminal 2 determined in this way unconditionally notifies the jackpot lottery result corresponding to the sound data (S224).

  If it is not a login state in said step S221 (S221: NO), the control board 20 will record a reception log | history (S222), and will receive the new sound data from which sound data ID differs in the past 20 minutes 3 times or more. It is determined whether or not the gaming machine ID is being played (S223). When it is a gaming machine ID that frequently receives new sound data (three times or more within the past 20 minutes) (S223: YES), the gaming machine that the player who owns the mobile terminal 2 plays without logging in It is estimated that there is a high possibility. In this case, the non-notification screen of FIG. 8 indicating that the result is not notified is displayed on the display screen 250 (S213).

  On the other hand, if the gaming machine ID has not been received three or more times within the past 20 minutes (S223: NO), the notification screen of FIG. 9 showing the jackpot lottery result corresponding to the reach effect is displayed on the display screen 250 (S224). ). In addition, when new sound data regarding another gaming machine is received during the notification, two types of notification screens are displayed in the screen to execute notification based on the respective sound data.

  As described above, the pachinko gaming machine 1 of the present example outputs sound data including a corresponding jackpot lottery result to the mobile terminal 2 while the reach effect is being executed. Among the mobile terminals 2 on which the predetermined application software has been downloaded, the mobile terminal 2 that is not logged in to the gaming machine that is executing the reach effect notifies the jackpot lottery result included in the sound data.

  In general, when a reach effect occurs, other players moving around the aisle may stop with an interest in the lottery lottery result and watch the game. By notifying the nearby players of the jackpot lottery result, the degree of interest in the jackpot lottery result can be suppressed, and a situation in which there are too many players watching the special effects can be avoided. If the number of players to be viewed can be suppressed, it is possible to avoid the occurrence of discomfort in which the reach effect can be seen for the player who has generated the reach effect. If such discomfort can be suppressed in advance, it is possible to turn off the game early because it is disliked by the nearby players, or to reduce the number of players who do not play games. The rate can be improved. In addition, it can be expected that the number of players who stop viewing will be increased by receiving notification of the big hit lottery result. A player who has stopped watching in this way has a high possibility of starting his or her own game, which contributes to an improvement in the operating rate of the gaming machine.

  The notification of the jackpot lottery result as described above is executed only by the portable terminal 2 that is not in the login state with respect to the gaming machine that is executing the reach effect among the portable terminals 2 that have downloaded the application software. The notification of the jackpot lottery result is not executed on the mobile terminal 2 that has not downloaded the application software or the mobile terminal 2 that is logged in to the gaming machine that is executing the reach effect.

  It is considered that many of the players who have downloaded the application software are playing with the mobile terminal 2 set in a login state in order to use the mobile terminal 2 for games such as capturing of game history. If the portable terminal 2 is in a login state with respect to the gaming machine that is executing the reach effect, the lottery lottery result is not notified during the execution of the reach effect. Therefore, there is no possibility that the player who has generated the reach production knows the jackpot lottery result before the end of the reach production and is awakened. Further, if the application software is not downloaded to the mobile terminal 2 possessed by the player who has generated the reach effect, the jackpot lottery result is not notified during the execution of the reach effect.

  In addition, when the jackpot lottery result corresponding to the reach effect is a win, there is a tendency that more players continue to watch even after knowing the win through notification of the mobile terminal 2. The player himself who generated the reach effect can predict the jackpot lottery result corresponding to the reach effect from the trend of the surrounding players. As described above, in the pachinko gaming machine 1 of this example, a new gameability is generated in which the jackpot lottery result is predicted from the trend of surrounding players during the reach performance.

  As described above, according to the pachinko gaming machine 1 of the present example, it is possible to suppress the possibility that the number of players watching the game becomes excessive.

Instead of or in addition to the configuration of this example, the following configuration may be employed. Furthermore, it is also possible to employ a combination of the following configurations as appropriate.
This example exemplifies a pachinko gaming machine that fires a ball and plays a game, and pays out a ball in accordance with a prize. The present invention may be applied to other gaming machines other than this pachinko gaming machine. For example, a slot machine that plays using medals, a complete credit type slot machine that does not use medals, an encapsulated pachinko gaming machine in which balls are encapsulated, and the like are conceivable.

  That is, the present invention can be applied to any gaming machine that executes an effect. The game result to be notified may have any content as long as the player can be given a privilege. For example, the winning state of the small role in the slot machine may be notified. For example, in a pachinko gaming machine, notification may be made about some reach effects among a plurality of reach effects.

  In this example, when outputting sound data during the reach production, information representing the jackpot lottery result is generated, and a calculation process of generating sound data by combining the game machine ID and the sound data ID with respect to this information is performed. The control board 10 is executing. Instead, a sound data storage area for storing sound data output during the reach effect is provided, and corresponding sound data for at least one reach effect is prepared in advance and stored in the sound data storage area. It is also good to let them. In this case, the sound data to be output can be generated simply by reading the sound data associated with the reach effect from the sound data storage area. A control board for generating sound data as compared with the case of generating sound data by generating the information representing the jackpot lottery result and combining the gaming machine ID and the sound data ID for each reach effect. 10 processing burdens can be reduced.

In this example, during one reach production, sound data capable of specifying the big hit lottery result is output a plurality of times. Instead of this, the number of output times of sound data during one reach production may be limited to one.
In this example, the sound data includes the sound data ID. The sound data ID can be omitted. In this case, when sound data is received within a predetermined time, for example, within 3 seconds, the mobile terminal 2 may determine that the sound data is the same.

In this example, a multi-function mobile phone is illustrated as the mobile terminal 2. Instead, for example, a small personal computer, a game machine, a music player, or the like that does not have a telephone function can be used as a portable terminal.
The notification mode of the jackpot lottery result is not limited to this example, and can be arbitrarily changed. This example is an example of a configuration in which the jackpot lottery result is not notified at all in the portable terminal 2 in the login state with respect to the gaming machine that is executing the reach effect. Instead, it is also possible to notify the degree of possibility of winning in the portable terminal 2 in the logged-in state for the gaming machine that is executing the reach effect. Note that the notification on the portable terminal 2 in the logged-in state for the gaming machine that is executing the reach effect may be a notification that makes it harder to grasp the jackpot lottery result than the portable terminal 4 that is not in the logged-in state for this gaming machine.

  You may change the specific method of the player who generated the reach production. For example, when the portable terminal 2 is compatible with a gaming machine without a login function, it is preferable to determine whether or not the portable terminal 2 is the player who is playing the game based only on the number of sound data received from the same gaming machine.

  The method for outputting the result information to the mobile terminal 2 may be arbitrarily changed. For example, the result information may be output using sound within an audible band. Also, a method other than sound may be used. For example, the result information may be output using a net line such as the Internet or a local net. For example, the result information may be output by blinking light of the decoration lamp 132. In addition to providing an infrared lamp or the like, the result information may be output by blinking of the infrared lamp. Further, for example, a code image such as a barcode representing the result information may be displayed on a liquid crystal display or the like. A player in the vicinity can receive a notification of the jackpot lottery result by photographing the code image.

  In addition, in the portable terminal 2 of this example, when new sound data is received during notification, each notification is simultaneously executed by displaying a plurality of types of notification screens. Instead of this, it is also possible to execute notification regarding each gaming machine by temporally switching a plurality of types of notification screens (for example, switching every second).

  As described above, specific examples of the present invention have been described in detail as in the embodiments.
