Each numerical information is stored in time series in the order of RE2 → third reserved area RE3 → fourth reserved area RE4. By providing the four holding areas RE1 to RE4 as described above, up to four game balls winning histories to the upper operating port 23 or the lower operating port 24 are stored on hold.

  The execution area AE is an area for moving each value stored in the first holding area RE1 of the holding area RE when starting the variable display of the special figure display unit 33. At the start of one game round Is determined based on various numerical information stored in the execution area AE.

  Each of the counters will be described in detail.

  The jackpot random number counter C1 is configured such that one by one is added in order within a range of 0 to 599, for example, and after reaching the maximum value, returns to 0. In particular, when the jackpot random number counter C1 makes one round, the value of the random number initial value counter CINI at that time is read as the initial value of the jackpot random number counter C1. The random number initial value counter CINI is a loop counter similar to the jackpot random number counter C1 (value = 0 to 599). The big hit random number counter C1 is periodically updated and stored in the holding storage area 64a at the timing when the game ball wins the upper working port 23 or the lower working port 24.

  The random number value for winning the jackpot is stored in the ROM 63 as a success / failure table. As the success / failure table, a success / failure table for the low probability mode and a success / failure table for the high probability mode are set. In other words, in the pachinko machine 10, the low probability mode and the high probability mode are set as the lottery modes in the winning lottery means.

  In the gaming state in which the winning / failing table for the low probability mode is referred to at the time of the lottery, the number of random numbers that win the jackpot is two. On the other hand, in the gaming state in which the winning / failing table for the high probability mode is referred to at the time of the lottery, the number of random numbers that will win the jackpot is 20. If the winning probability in the high probability mode is higher than that in the low probability mode, the number of random numbers to be won is arbitrary.

  The jackpot type counter C2 is configured so that 1 is added in order within a range of 0 to 29, and after reaching the maximum value, it returns to 0. The big hit type counter C <b> 2 is periodically updated and stored in the holding storage area 64 a at the timing when the game ball wins the upper working port 23 or the lower working port 24.

  The game result distribution destination for the big hit type counter C2 is stored in the ROM 63 as a distribution table. In the distribution table, among the values of the big hit type counter C2 of “0 to 29”, “0 to 9” corresponds to the low probability big hit result, and “10 to 29” corresponds to the high probability big hit result. ing.

  The low probability big hit result is a big hit result that the success / failure lottery mode becomes the low probability mode and the support mode becomes the high frequency support mode after the opening / closing execution mode ends. However, the high-frequency support mode ends when the number of games reaches the end reference number (specifically, 100 times) after the shift, and shifts to the low-frequency support mode. Further, the high-probability big hit result is a big hit result in which the success / failure lottery mode becomes the high probability mode and the support mode becomes the high frequency support mode after the opening / closing execution mode ends.

  The opening / closing execution mode is a mode in which a round game is played 15 times. A round game is a game that continues until either a predetermined upper limit duration has elapsed and a predetermined upper limit number of game balls win the variable winning device 22 is satisfied. That is. The upper limit duration is set to 29 sec, and the upper limit number is set to nine. In each round game, the variable winning device 22 is opened only once, but the opening may be performed a plurality of times.

  In the present pachinko machine 10, in a situation where the launch handle 41 is operated by the player, the game ball launching mechanism 81 is driven and controlled so that one game ball is launched toward the game area in 0.6 sec. . Then, in each round game, an upper limit duration time that is longer than the product of the launch period of the game balls and the upper limit number of one round game is set. Therefore, in each round game, it can be expected that the variable prize device 22 will receive the maximum number of winnings in one round game.

  The support mode is a mode in which the frequency with which the electric accessory 24a of the lower working port 24 is opened per unit time is different, and the high frequency support mode and the frequency are relatively high. Low frequency support mode is set.

  Specifically, in the low-frequency support mode and the high-frequency support mode, the probability of winning the power combination open state in the electric combination release lottery using the electric combination release counter C4 is the same (for example, both 4/5) However, in the high frequency support mode, the number of times that the electric utility item 24a is opened is set more frequently than in the low frequency support mode. The time is set longer. In this case, in the high-frequency support mode, when the electrified open state is selected and the open state of the electric accessory 24a occurs a plurality of times, the closed state from the end of one open state until the next open state is started The time is set shorter than one opening time. Also, in the high-frequency support mode, a shorter time is secured as the minimum secured time after the next electric-power-operated object opening lottery is performed after the electric-powered object opening lottery is performed than in the low-frequency support mode. It is set to be selected.

  As described above, in the high frequency support mode, there is a higher probability of winning a prize to the lower working port 24 than in the low frequency support mode. In other words, in the low frequency support mode, there is a higher probability that a prize will be generated in the upper operating port 23 than in the lower operating port 24, but in the high frequency support mode, the lower operating port 24 is connected to the lower operating port 24. The probability of winning a prize increases. When a prize is awarded to the lower operating port 24, a predetermined number of game balls are paid out. Therefore, in the high frequency support mode, the player plays a game while not reducing the number of possessed balls so much. be able to.

  The configuration for increasing the frequency at which the high frequency support mode is set to the power release state per unit time as compared with the low frequency support mode is not limited to the above-described configuration, for example, the electric component release lottery It is good also as a structure which raises the probability of becoming electrified in the electric character open state in In addition, a secured time (e.g., based on winning a prize to the through gate 25 in the general map display unit 34) that is secured after the next electrification opening lottery is performed after the first electrification opening lottery is performed. In a configuration in which a plurality of types of variable display time) are prepared, the high frequency support mode is set so that a short securing time is easily selected or the average secure time is shorter than the low frequency support mode. It may be. Further, the number of times of opening is increased, the opening time is lengthened, and the secured time that is secured when the next electric winning combination opening lottery is performed after the first electric winning combination releasing lottery is shortened (that is, In this case, one condition or any combination of conditions is applied among shortening the average time of the reserved time and increasing the winning probability. Thus, the advantage of the high frequency support mode over the low frequency support mode may be increased.

  For example, the reach random number counter C3 is incremented one by one within a range of 0 to 238, for example, and reaches a maximum value and then returns to 0. The reach random number counter C3 is periodically updated and stored in the holding storage area 64a at the timing when the game ball wins the upper working port 23 or the lower working port 24.

  Here, in the pachinko machine 10, reach display is set as a kind of display effect in the symbol display device 31. The reach display includes a symbol display device 31 capable of performing variable display of symbols, and in a gaming machine in which the stop display result after the variable display becomes a special display result in the game times in the opening / closing execution mode, the symbol display device This is a display state for making the player think that it is a variable display state in which the special display result is likely to be obtained before the stop display result is derived and displayed after the variable display of the symbol 31 is started.

  In the reach display, a combination of jackpot symbols may be established by stopping and displaying symbols for some of the plurality of symbol sequences displayed on the display surface of the symbol display device 31. A display state in which the combination is displayed and the symbols are displayed in the state of the remaining symbols in that state is included. In addition, in the state where the combination of reach symbols is displayed as described above, the variation display of symbols is performed in the remaining symbol columns, and a reach effect is performed by displaying a predetermined character or the like as a moving image in the background image. In addition, there are those that perform a reach effect by displaying a predetermined character or the like as a moving image on substantially the entire display surface after reducing or not displaying a combination of reach symbols.

  The reach display is executed regardless of the value of the reach random number counter C3 in the game times corresponding to the jackpot result. Further, in the game times corresponding to the losing result, the reach random number counter C3 acquired at a predetermined timing with reference to the reach table stored in the ROM 63 is executed when the reach display is generated. That is, the numerical information of the reach random number counter C3 is used to determine whether or not to execute reach display. However, in determining the type of reach display, the numerical information of the reach random number counter C3 is not used.

  The variation type counter CS is, for example, incremented by 1 within a range of 0 to 198, and returns to 0 after reaching the maximum value. The variation type counter CS is used when the MPU 62 determines the display continuation time in the special symbol display unit 33 and the symbol display continuation time in the symbol display device 31. The variation type counter CS is updated in each of timer interrupt processing described later, and the variation type counter CS of the variation type counter CS is determined at the time of starting the variation display in the special symbol display unit 33 and when determining the variation pattern at the time of symbol variation start by the symbol display device 31. The value is obtained. When determining the display duration, the display duration table stored in advance in the display duration table storage area of the ROM 63 is referred to.

  Here, when it is determined that the reach display is to be generated based on the numerical information acquired from the reach random number counter C3, or the reach display is generated due to the game times to shift to the opening / closing execution mode. When it is determined, the type of reach display is determined using the numerical information acquired from the variation type counter CS. Each reach display differs in the type of character appearing in the reach display, the period during which the reach display is executed, and the like.

  The electric accessory release counter C4 is, for example, configured to increment one by one within a range of 0 to 250 and return to 0 after reaching the maximum value. The electric combination release counter C4 is periodically updated and stored in the electric combination holding area 64c provided in the RWM 64 at the timing when a game ball wins the through gate 25. Then, at a predetermined timing, a lottery is performed as to whether or not to control the electric accessory 24a to the open state based on the stored value of the electric accessory release counter C4.

<Processing executed by MPU 62 of main controller 60>
Next, timer interrupt processing executed by the MPU 62 will be described. FIG. 6 is a flowchart showing timer interrupt processing executed by the MPU 62. The timer interrupt process is started periodically (for example, 4 msec).

  In the timer interrupt process, first, a power failure information storage process is executed in step S101. In the power failure information storage process, it is monitored whether or not a power failure signal corresponding to the occurrence of power interruption is received from the power failure monitoring board 65, and when the occurrence of a power failure is specified, the power failure flag of the RWM 64 is set to “1”. To do. By setting “1” to the power failure flag, the power failure processing is executed after the current timer interrupt processing is completed.

  In subsequent step S102, a lottery random number update process is executed. In the lottery random number update process, the big hit random number counter C1, the big hit type counter C2, the reach random number counter C3, and the electric accessory release counter C4 are updated. Specifically, after executing the process of sequentially reading the current numerical information from the jackpot random number counter C1, the jackpot type counter C2, the reach random number counter C3, and the electric accessory release counter C4, and adding 1 to each of the read numerical information Then, a process of overwriting the reading source counter is executed. In this case, each counter value is cleared to “0” when it reaches the maximum value.

  Thereafter, in step S103, random number initial value update processing is executed, and in step S104, variation counter update processing is executed. In the random number initial value update process, the random number initial value counter CINI is updated, and in the fluctuation counter update process, the fluctuation type counter CS is updated. In subsequent step S105, a game stop determination process is executed. In the game stop determination process, it is monitored whether or not the progress of the game is to be stopped. If the progress of the game is to be stopped, the execution of the process for progressing the game is stopped.

  Thereafter, in step S106, it is determined whether or not the progress of the game is stopped, and the processing after step S107 is executed on the condition that the progress of the game is not stopped.

  In step S107, port output processing is executed. In the port output process, when output information has been set in the previous timer interrupt process, a process for performing output corresponding to the output information to various drive units is executed.

  In a succeeding step S108, a reading process is executed. In the reading process, signals other than the power failure signal and the winning signal are read, and the read information is stored for use in future processing.

  In the subsequent step S109, signals received from the detection sensors provided in the general winning port 21, the variable winning device 22, the upper operating port 23, the lower operating port 24 and the through gate 25 are read and the read information is handled. The winning detection process for executing the process is executed. In step S110, a timer update process is executed to collectively update the numerical information of a predetermined timer counter provided in the RWM 64. In step S111, a fraud detection process for monitoring whether or not a predetermined event set as a fraud monitoring target has occurred is executed.

  In the subsequent step S112, prize ball command output setting processing is executed. In the output setting process, when it is determined as a result of the winning detection process that a game ball has entered one of the general winning port 21, the variable winning device 22, the upper operating port 23, and the lower operating port 24, A prize ball command corresponding to the place where the entry has occurred is output to the payout controller 70. The payout control device 70 drives and controls the payout device 71 so that the number of game balls corresponding to the received prize ball command is paid out to the upper plate 46a or the lower plate 47a.

  In subsequent step S113, as input state monitoring processing, disconnection confirmation of each winning detection sensor and opening confirmation of the gaming machine main body 12 are performed based on the information read in the reading processing in step S108.

  In the subsequent step S114, special figure special electric control processing is executed for performing execution control of the game times and execution control of the opening / closing execution mode. The special figure special electric control process will be described later in detail.

  In the following step S115, the ordinary power control process is executed. In the ordinary map / electric power control process, when winning to the through gate 25 occurs, a process for obtaining numerical information of the electric accessory release counter C4 is executed and the numerical information is stored. Then, the numerical value information is determined to be released, and further, the opening determination is used as an opportunity to execute a process for producing a general-purpose effect. Moreover, the process which opens and closes the electrically-driven accessory 24a of the lower working port 24 is performed based on the result of open determination.

  In the subsequent step S116, the output information for updating the display content of the special figure display unit 33 is set based on the processing results of the immediately preceding steps S114 and S115, and the display content of the general map display unit 34 is updated. Set the output information for

  In the following step S117, a demonstration display process is executed for setting the display content of the symbol display device 31 for standby display in a situation where both the game times and the opening / closing execution mode are not executed.

  In subsequent step S118, external information setting processing is executed so as to control the start and end of output of an external signal in accordance with the processing results of various processing executed in the current timer interrupt processing. When an affirmative determination is made in step S106, or after the processing in steps S107 to S118 is executed, the timer interrupt processing is terminated.

  FIG. 7 is a flowchart showing the special figure special electric control process (step S114).

  In the special figure special power control process, first, a hold information acquisition process is executed in step S201. In the holding information acquisition process, it is determined whether or not a prize is generated for the upper operating port 23 or the lower operating port 24. If a winning is generated, the number of holds in the holding storage area 64a is the upper limit ( In this embodiment, it is determined whether it is less than “4”). When the number of holds is less than the upper limit value, the number of holds is incremented by 1 and the numerical information of the jackpot random number counter C1, the jackpot type counter C2 and the reach random number counter C3 updated in the previous step S102 is used for holding. Stored in the first reserved area among the empty reserved areas RE1 to RE4 of the area RE.

  In addition, when winning to the upper working port 23 and the lower working port 24 occurs at the same time, the process for obtaining the hold information is performed a plurality of times within a range in which the hold information obtaining process is executed once. Run.

  After executing the hold information acquisition process in step S201, the process proceeds to step S202. In step S202, the process of reading the information of the special figure special electricity counter provided in RWM64 is performed, and the process of reading the special figure special electric address table from ROM63 is performed in step S203. In step S204, a process of acquiring a start address corresponding to the information of the special figure special power counter from the special figure special electric address table is executed.

  Here, the processing content of step S202-step S204 is demonstrated.

  As already described, the special figure special power control process includes a process related to a game-playing effect and a process related to an opening / closing execution mode. In this case, as processing related to the effect for game times, special figure variation start processing (step S206) which is processing for starting the effect for game times and processing for advancing the effect for game times. A special figure changing process (step S207) and a special figure determining process (step S208), which is a process for ending the effect for the game round, are set.

  In addition, as a process related to the opening / closing execution mode, a special electricity start process (step S209) which is a process for controlling the opening of the opening / closing execution mode and a special electricity which is a process for controlling the open state of the variable winning device 22 Opening process (step 2010), special electricity closing process (step S211) that is a process for controlling the closed state of the variable winning device 22, and the opening / closing execution mode ending and the gaming state at the end of the opening / closing execution mode Special electric power termination processing (step S212), which is a process for controlling the transition of, is set.

  In such a processing configuration, the special figure special power counter is a counter for the MPU 62 to grasp which of the above-mentioned types of processing should be executed. Corresponding to the numerical information of the special electric counter, the start address of the program for executing the above-mentioned plural types of processing is set.

  In this case, the start address SA0 is the start address of the program for executing the special figure variation start process (step S206), and the start address SA1 is the program address for executing the special figure variation process (step S207). The start address SA2 is the start address of the program for executing the special figure finalizing process (step S208), and the start address SA3 is the program address for executing the special electricity start process (step S209). The start address SA4 is a start address of a program for executing the special power open process (step S210), and the start address SA5 is a program for executing the special power close process (step S211). This is the start address, and the start address SA6 A start address of a program for executing (step S212).

  The special figure special electric power counter is the special figure special electric power control in the next processing time when the condition for updating the numerical information is satisfied when the processing corresponding to the numerical information currently stored is completed. Corresponding to the processing executed in the processing, 1 addition, 1 subtraction, or “0” is cleared (initialized). Therefore, in the special figure special power control process at each processing time, a process corresponding to the numerical information set in the special figure special electric power counter may be executed.

  After executing the process of step S204, a process of jumping to the process indicated by the start address acquired in step S204 is executed in step S205. Specifically, if the acquired start address is SA0, the process jumps to the special figure change start process in step S206. In the special figure change start process, various determination processes are executed on the condition that the hold information is held and stored, and the game display in which the variable display is performed in the symbol display device 31 and the special figure display unit 33 is started. Execute the process. Details thereof will be described later.

  If the acquired start address is SA1, the process jumps to the special figure changing process of step S207. In the special figure changing process, a process for determining whether or not it is during the game time duration and before the fixed display is performed. A process for regularly changing the aspect is executed.

  By the way, instead of waiting in the special figure changing process until it is the timing to display the fixed figure, if it is not the timing to make a fixed display, the process for changing the regular figure is executed and then the special figure is changing. The process ends. Therefore, after the game-turn effect is started, the special-figure changing process is started every time the special-figure special-electric control process is started until the timing for final display is reached. In addition, when it is time to confirm and display, the numerical information of the special figure special electric counter is incremented by 1, so that the numerical information of the counter corresponds to the special figure in-flight process from the one corresponding to the special figure changing process Update to what you did.

  If the acquired start address is SA2, the process jumps to the special figure determining process in step S208. In the special figure determination process, the final stop command is transmitted to the sound emission control device 90 in order to cause the symbol display device 31 to display the stop result of the current game round as a final stop display. The display mode is a display mode corresponding to the lottery result of the current game time. In the special figure confirmation process, it is determined whether or not the period during confirmation display has elapsed, and if the period has elapsed, it is determined whether or not the transition to the opening / closing execution mode occurs. When the transition to the opening / closing execution mode occurs, the mode transition process is executed.

  By the way, instead of waiting in the special figure determination process until the fixed display period elapses, this special figure determination process is terminated if the period has not elapsed. Therefore, after the fixed display is started, the special figure determination process is started each time the special figure special power control process is started until the period during the fixed display elapses. In addition, when the period during the fixed display has elapsed, in a situation where the transition to the opening / closing execution mode does not occur, the numerical information of the special figure special counter is initialized (that is, “0” is cleared) and the transition to the opening / closing execution mode is performed. In such a situation, by adding 1 to the numerical information of the special figure special power counter, the numerical information of the counter is updated from the one corresponding to the special figure determination process to the one corresponding to the special electric power start process.

  If the acquired start address is SA3, the process jumps to the special electricity start process in step S209. In the special electricity start process, an opening command indicating that the opening / closing execution mode is started is transmitted to the sound emission control device 90. In the special electricity start process, it is determined whether or not the opening period of the opening / closing execution mode has elapsed. When the opening period has not elapsed, this special power start process is terminated instead of waiting in the special power start process. Therefore, after the opening effect in the opening / closing execution mode is started, the special power start process is started each time the special figure special power control process is started until the opening period elapses. In addition, when the opening period has elapsed, the numerical information of the special figure special power counter is incremented by 1, thereby updating the numerical information of the counter from the one corresponding to the special power start process to the one corresponding to the special power open process. .

  If the acquired start address is SA4, the process jumps to the special electricity release process in step S210. In the special electric release opening process, one round game is started, and it is determined whether or not the end condition of the round game is satisfied. When the end condition is not satisfied, the process is not waited for in the special electricity release process, but the process for monitoring the establishment of the end condition is executed, and then the special electricity release process is terminated. When the above termination condition is satisfied, the numerical information of the special figure special power counter is incremented by 1, so that the numerical information of the counter is changed from the one corresponding to the special electric power open process to the one corresponding to the special electric power closed process. Update.

  If the acquired start address is SA5, the process jumps to the special power closing process in step S211. In the special electricity closing process, a process of ending one round game is executed. Further, in the interval period between round games, it is determined whether or not the interval period has elapsed. When the interval period has not elapsed, this special electric power closing process is terminated instead of waiting in the special electric power closing process. Therefore, when the interval period is started, the special power closing process is started each time the special figure special electric control process is started until the period elapses. In addition, when the interval period has elapsed, by subtracting 1 from the numerical information of the special figure special electricity counter, the numerical information of the counter is updated from the one corresponding to the special electric current closing process to the one corresponding to the special electric current opening process. To do.

  On the other hand, in the special power shut-off process for the last round game, after executing the process of ending one round game, the numerical information of the special figure special power counter is incremented by 1 so that the numerical information of the counter is changed to the special power shut-off process. Update from the corresponding one to the one corresponding to the special electricity termination processing.

  If the acquired start address is SA6, the process jumps to the special electricity ending process in step S212. In the special electric power end process, an ending command indicating that the open / close execution mode is ended is transmitted to the sound emission control device 90. In the special electric power end process, it is determined whether or not the ending period of the opening / closing execution mode has elapsed. If the ending period has not elapsed, the special electric power end processing is terminated instead of waiting in the special electric power end processing. Therefore, after the ending effect in the opening / closing execution mode is started, the special electric power end process is started every time the special figure special electric control process is started until the ending period elapses. In addition, when the ending period has elapsed, after executing processing for setting the gaming state (open / close lottery mode and support mode) after the opening / closing execution mode, the numerical information of the special figure special electricity counter is initialized. The numerical information of the counter is updated from the one corresponding to the special electric power end process to the one corresponding to the special figure fluctuation start process.

  FIG. 8 is a flowchart showing the special figure change start process (step S206).

  In the special figure variation start process, first, in step S301, it is determined whether or not the number of holds N is 1 or more. If the number of holds N is “0”, the special figure variation start process is terminated as it is. If the number N of holds is 1 or more, a data setting process is executed in step S302.

  In the data setting process, first, 1 is subtracted from the holding number N, and the data stored in the first holding area RE1 of the holding area RE is moved to the execution area AE. Thereafter, a process of shifting the data stored in the holding areas RE1 to RE4 of the holding area RE is executed. This data shift process is a process of sequentially shifting the data stored in the first reservation area RE1 to the fourth reservation area RE4 to the lower area side, and clears the data in the first reservation area RE1 and the second The data in each area is shifted such as the reserved area RE2 → the first reserved area RE1, the third reserved area RE3 → the second reserved area RE2, and the fourth reserved area RE4 → the third reserved area RE3. At this time, a shift time command for causing the voice light emission control device 90 to recognize that the data in the holding area has been shifted may be set as an output target and transmitted.

  In a succeeding step S303, the determination process is executed. In the success / failure determination process, first, it is determined whether or not the success / failure lottery mode is a high probability mode. In the case of the high probability mode, with reference to the high probability mode success / failure table provided in the ROM 63, information for success / failure determination among the information stored in the execution area AE, that is, numerical information relating to the jackpot random number counter C1 Is consistent with the high probability jackpot information. In the case of the low probability mode, the numerical information related to the jackpot random number counter C1 stored in the execution area AE is referred to the hit table for the low probability mode provided in the ROM 63, and the jackpot value for the low probability. It is determined whether or not the information matches.

  In a succeeding step S304, it is determined whether or not the result of the success / failure determination process in the step S303 is a jackpot winning result. If the result is a big win, a distribution determination process is executed in step S305. In the distribution determination process, information for distribution determination among the information stored in the execution area AE, that is, numerical information related to the big hit type counter C2 is grasped. Then, with reference to the distribution table provided in the ROM 63, it is specified which jackpot result corresponds to the numerical information related to the above-obtained jackpot type counter C2. Specifically, it is specified which jackpot result corresponds to the low probability jackpot result or the high probability jackpot result.

  In a succeeding step S306, a stop result setting process for the jackpot result is executed. Specifically, the information on the pattern mode that is finally stopped and displayed on the special figure display unit 33 in the game round related to the start of the change is specified from the stop result table for the jackpot result stored in the ROM 63 in advance. The specified information is stored in the RWM 64. In the stop result table for the jackpot result, information on the pattern mode to be stopped and displayed on the special figure display unit 33 is set differently for each type of the jackpot result.

  In subsequent step S307, a flag setting process corresponding to the distribution determination result is executed. Specifically, the RWM 64 is provided with a flag corresponding to each type of jackpot result, and in step S307, among the flags corresponding to each type of jackpot result, it corresponds to the distribution determination result in step S305. “1” is set for the flag.

  On the other hand, if it is determined in step S304 that the result is not a jackpot winning result, a stop result setting process for a losing result is executed in step S308. Specifically, the information on the pattern form to be finally stopped and displayed on the special figure display unit 33 in the game round related to the start of the change is specified from the stop result table for the outlier result stored in the ROM 63 in advance. The specified information is stored in the RWM 64. The information on the pattern mode selected in this case is different from the information on the pattern mode selected in the case of the jackpot result.

  After executing one of the processes in step S307 and step S308, in step S309, a display duration time grasping process is executed. In such processing, numerical value information of the variation type counter CS is acquired. Further, it is determined whether or not a reach display is generated in the symbol display device 31 in the current game round. Specifically, it is determined that the reach display is generated when the game times related to the start of the change this time is a high probability big hit result or a low likelihood big hit result. If the numerical information related to the reach random number counter C3 stored in the execution area AE is not the result of any jackpot, but is numerical information corresponding to the occurrence of reach, it is determined that reach display occurs.

  When it is determined that reach display occurs, display duration information corresponding to the numerical value information of the current variation type counter CS is acquired by referring to the reach generation display duration table stored in the ROM 63. On the other hand, when it is determined that the reach display does not occur, the display duration information corresponding to the numerical information of the current variation type counter CS is obtained by referring to the reach non-occurrence display duration table stored in the ROM 63. get. Incidentally, the display duration that can be acquired with reference to the reach non-occurrence display duration table is different from the display duration that can be acquired with reference to the reach occurrence display duration table.

  Note that the display duration information when no reach occurs is set so that the display duration is shorter as the number N of holds is larger. In the situation where the support mode is the high frequency support mode, the non-reach mode is selected so that a shorter display duration is selected compared to the case where the number of the hold information is the same as in the situation where the low frequency support mode. The generation display duration table is set. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the display duration may not be changed according to the number of holds N and the support mode, and the above relationship may be reversed. Furthermore, the above-described configuration may be applied to the display continuation time when reach occurs. In addition, in the case of various jackpot results, a display duration table may be individually set for each of the case of outreach and the case of a non-reach outbreak result. In this case, the display duration time is allocated according to each game result.

  In the subsequent step S310, the information of the display duration acquired in step S309 is set in the special figure special electricity timer counter. The update of the numerical information set in the timer counter is executed by the timer update process (FIG. 6) already described. By the way, as the effects for the game times, the symbol variation display on the special symbol display unit 33 and the symbol variation display on the symbol display device 31 are performed. When these variation displays are ended, the game times are displayed. Is displayed (final stop display) over a fixed time (final stop time) in a state where the stop result is displayed (in the symbol display device 31, a combination of predetermined symbols on the active line is on standby). In this case, the display continuation time acquired in step S309 is a time obtained by subtracting the fixed time from the total time for one game. In this respect, the display continuation time can be rephrased as a time before confirmation (time before final stop).

  In the subsequent step S311, the change command and the type command are set as output targets. The change command includes display duration information. Here, the display duration obtained by referring to the display non-occurrence display duration table as described above is different from the display duration obtained by referring to the display occurrence time table for reach occurrence. Even if the information on the presence or absence of the reach is not included in the command for use, the sound emission control device 90 as the sub-side control device can identify the presence or absence of the reach from the information on the display duration. In this regard, it can be said that the change command includes information indicating whether or not reach has occurred. Note that the change command may include information that directly indicates whether or not reach has occurred.

  The type command includes game result information. The variation command and the type command set as the output targets in step S311 are transmitted to the sound emission control device 90 which is a sub-side control device.

  After executing the process of step S311, the variable display of the pattern on the special figure display unit 33 is started in step S312. In the subsequent step S313, the special figure special electricity counter is incremented by one. In this case, since the numerical information of the special figure special electricity counter when the special figure fluctuation start process is executed is “0”, the numerical information of the special figure special electric counter is “1” when the process of step S313 is executed. " Thereafter, the special figure variation start process is terminated.

<Direction control>
Next, execution control of the effect for game times executed by the sound emission control device 90 and the display control device 100 will be described.

  As already described, when the variable display for game times is performed in the special symbol display unit 33 when the main controller 60 determines whether or not the game is successful, the symbol display device 31 also performs symbol variation. The display is performed, and further, the light emission effect in the display light emitting unit 44 and the sound effect in the speaker unit 45 are executed in accordance with the variation display mode of the symbol. For these effects, the outline of the effect pattern is determined by the sound emission control device 90 based on the change command and the type command transmitted from the main control device 60, and the detailed contents of the light emission effect pattern and the sound effect are accordingly produced. The detailed content of the pattern is determined, and a display effect pattern corresponding to the effect pattern of the large frame is displayed on the display control device 100 on the basis of a command corresponding to the effect pattern of the large frame being transmitted from the sound emission control device 90. This is done by determining the detailed contents.

  The large frame effect pattern will be described with reference to FIGS. FIG. 9 is an explanatory diagram for explaining a large frame determination table 93a that is referred to when the MPU 92 of the sound emission control device 90 determines the large frame effect pattern. FIGS. 10 to 15 illustrate large frame effect patterns. It is explanatory drawing for demonstrating the specific content of the various corresponding | compatible effects which can be performed in the execution timing corresponding to each while being included.

  As shown in FIG. 9, the various corresponding effects include the “final stop symbol” effect, the “stage switching” effect, the “first notice effect”, the “second notice effect”, and the “normal reach effect”. ”,“ Super Reach Stage ”production, and“ Cut-in Production ”are set.

  Explaining these various corresponding effects, as shown in FIGS. 10A and 10B, the effect of “final stop symbol” is the display surface G of the symbol display device 31 when the game turn effect is ended. This is an effect of stopping and displaying the “7” symbol (the main symbol with “7”), which is a symbol for expectation improvement, on any of the five effective lines L1 to L5.

  Specifically, as shown in FIG. 10 (a), when the combination of reach symbols by the “7” symbol is formed in the middle line L2, the combination of reach symbols by the “7” symbol is formed. The probability of being a jackpot result is higher than when a combination of reach symbols by other symbols is formed without being made. In addition, the “final stop symbol” effect is also executed in a game time that is a game result of a losing result and no reach display occurs, and the execution of the “final stop symbol” effect is determined in the game time As shown in FIG. 10B, among the symbol rows Z1 to Z3, “7” is displayed in any one of the effective lines L1 to L5 in the upper symbol row Z1 where the symbol scroll display is first stopped. The symbol is stopped and displayed.

  The effect of “switching the stage” is the effect of the background image displayed on the display surface G of the symbol display device 31 as if it exists behind the symbol rows Z1 to Z3. It is an effect that switches when starting.

  Specifically, as the “first stage”, a stage on which a background image corresponding to the sea is displayed is set as shown in FIG. 11A. In this case, each symbol is set. In the columns Z1 to Z3, the background display effect is executed such that the background is scrolled at a speed different from the speed at which the symbols are scroll-displayed. As the “second stage”, as shown in FIG. 11B, a stage on which a background image corresponding to the beach is displayed is set. In this case, the symbols are scroll-displayed in each of the symbol rows Z1 to Z3. The display effect for the background is executed such that the background is scrolled at a speed different from the speed to be performed. When execution of the “stage switching” effect is determined, the timing of the start of the game times or after the start of the game times effect is started and the symbols are scrolled first in each of the symbol rows Z1 to Z3. Before the scroll display of the upper symbol row Z1 whose display is stopped is stopped, the stage is switched to a stage different from the stage set so far.

  The effect of “stage switching” is more likely to be a jackpot result when the effect is executed than when the effect is not executed, and when the effect is executed, There is a higher probability that a reach display will occur in the game times of the outlier results than when the performance is not executed.

  As shown in FIG. 12A, the “first notice effect” is displayed by the first notice character as if it is present on the display surface G of the symbol display device 31 in front of each of the symbol rows Z1 to Z3. Display effect. The “first notice effect” is after the scroll display of the upper symbol row Z1 in which the symbol scroll display is first stopped among the symbol rows Z1 to Z3, and then the symbol scroll display is stopped. This is executed before the scroll display of the lower symbol row Z3 is stopped.

  The “first notice effect” has a higher probability of being a jackpot result when the effect is executed than when the effect is not executed, and when the effect is executed, There is a higher probability that a reach display will occur in the game times of the outlier results than when the performance is not executed. In the “first notice effect”, “first notice effect A” and “first notice effect B” having different display modes (specifically, colors) of the first notice character are set. When the “first notice effect B” is executed, the probability of being a jackpot result is higher than when the “first notice effect A” is executed, and further, the “first notice effect B” is executed. In this case, the probability that the reach display occurs in the game times as the result of losing is higher than the case where the “first notice effect A” is executed.

  As shown in FIG. 12B, the “second notice effect” is the first notice as if it exists behind the symbol rows Z1 to Z3 on the display surface G of the symbol display device 31. This is a display effect in which a second notice character of a different type from the character is displayed. The “second notice effect” is executed at the timing when the reach display occurs.

  The “second notice effect” has a higher probability of being a jackpot result when the effect is executed than when the effect is not executed. In the “second notice effect”, “second notice effect A” and “second notice effect B”, which are different in display mode (specifically, color) of the second notice character, are set. The probability that the “second notice effect B” is executed is higher than the result that the “second notice effect A” is executed.

  As shown in FIGS. 13 (a) and 13 (b), the “normal reach effect” is performed by stopping the scroll display of symbols in the upper symbol row Z1 and the lower symbol row Z3 and stopping and displaying the combination of reach symbols. In the normal reach in which the symbol scroll display is performed in the middle symbol row Z2 where the symbol scroll display is stopped last in the situation, the above-mentioned first as in the symbol row Z1 to Z3 This is a display effect in which a character for normal reach that is different from the first notice character and the second notice character is displayed. The “normal reach effect” is executed at a timing later than the timing at which the “second notice effect” can be executed during reach display.

  The “normal reach effect” is more likely to be a jackpot result when the effect is executed than when the effect is not executed. Further, the “normal reach effect” includes “reach effect A” in which the character A for normal reach is displayed as shown in FIG. 13A, and normal reach that is different from the character A as shown in FIG. 13B. The “reach effect B” in which the character B is displayed is set. The probability that the jackpot result is higher when the “reach effect B” is executed than when the “reach effect A” is executed.

  The effect of the “super reach stage” is displayed as if it exists on the display surface G of the symbol display device 31 on the back side of each symbol row Z1 to Z3 when super reach is being performed. The effect is to change the background image that is present according to the expected level of occurrence of the jackpot result. Superreach is an effect that is executed after normal reach, and the game times in which super reach occurs are later in the opening / closing execution mode than the game times in which normal reach occurs and super reach does not occur. This is an effect that indicates that the degree of expectation of occurrence of is high.

  Specifically, as the background image A, a stage on which a background image is displayed as if a super reach character is surfing is set as shown in FIG. The display effect for the background is executed such that the character for super reach advances gradually while surfing. Further, as stage B, as shown in FIG. 14B, a stage is set on which a background image is displayed as if the super reach character is moving against the movement of the auxiliary character.

  The effect of the “super reach stage” is more likely to be a jackpot result when “stage B” is executed than when “stage A” is executed.

  As shown in FIGS. 15A and 15B, the “cut-in effect” is present at the most front side in a part of the display surface G of the symbol display device 31 in a situation where super reach is being executed. This is a display effect in which a cut-in image is displayed as if it were. The “cut-in effect” is executed at a timing prior to the stop of the symbol scroll display in the middle symbol row Z2, which is the final stop symbol row, during the super reach.

  The “cut-in effect” has a higher probability of being a jackpot result when the effect is executed than when the effect is not executed. In the “cut-in effect”, a “cut-in effect A” in which the cut-in image A is displayed as shown in FIG. 15A and a cut-in image B as shown in FIG. 15B are displayed. “Cut-in effect B” is set. The probability that the jackpot result is higher when the “cut-in effect B” is executed than when the “cut-in effect A” is executed.

  Returning to the description of the large frame determination table 93a, as shown in FIG. 9, in the large frame determination table 93a, the effect content of the corresponding effect is associated with the combination of the numerical information of the effect execution counter 94a and the lottery result pattern. A table to be referred to when determining (including non-execution) is set. The effect execution counter 94a is provided in the RWM 94 of the sound emission control device 90, and when specifying which of the above-mentioned corresponding effects is to be determined for the effect contents, the sound emission control device 90 includes the effect execution counter 94a. Referenced by MPU 92. Specifically, the numerical information of the production execution counter 94a is set as “1” to “7”, “1” corresponds to the production of “final stop symbol”, and “2” represents “stage switching”. "3" corresponds to "first notice effect", "4" corresponds to "second notice effect", and "5" "normal reach effect" “6” corresponds to the “super reach stage” effect, and “7” corresponds to the “cut-in effect”.

  The lottery result pattern is a game time that is a game result of a losing result and does not generate a reach indication, and is a game time that is a game time of a losing result and a normal reach indication is generated. `` When the game goes out of normal reach '', which means that the game times are out of play results and a super reach display occurs. "Normal reach per game time", which means that the game times are displayed, and "Super reach time per game," which means that the game times result in a low probability and a super-reach display. ”Means a game time that results in a high-probability big win and a super-reach indication is generated. That at the time "per, are present.

  In each lottery result pattern, an effect content determination table for all of “1” to “7” of the effect execution counter 94a is not set, but corresponding effects that can be executed in the game times of each lottery result pattern An effect content determination table is set for the effect execution counter 94a corresponding to the type. Specifically, for “completely off”, an effect content determination table is set for each of “1” to “3” of the effect execution counter 94a (“table A1” to “table A3”). ). For “out of normal reach”, an effect content determination table is set for each of “1” to “5” of the effect execution counter 94a (“table B1” to “table B5”). For “out of super reach”, an effect content determination table is set for each of “1” to “7” of the effect execution counter 94a (“table C1” to “table C7”). For “normal reach hit”, an effect content determination table is set for each of “1” to “5” of the effect execution counter 94a (“table D1” to “table D5”). For “super reach normal hit time”, an effect content determination table is set for each of “1” to “7” of the effect execution counter 94a (“table E1” to “table E7”). For “super reach probability change time”, an effect content determination table is set for each of “1” to “7” of the effect execution counter 94a (“table F1” to “table F7”).

  As described above, the number of corresponding effects to be executed differs depending on each lottery result pattern. However, in any lottery result pattern, the numerical information of the effect execution counter 94a in which the effect content determination table is set is a serial number. Therefore, when the content of the effect is determined by the MPU 92 of the sound emission control device 90, one corresponding effect is obtained until the numerical value information of the effect execution counter 94a corresponding to the lottery result pattern is obtained in any lottery result pattern. After the effect content is determined using the effect content determination table, 1 is added to the numerical information of the effect execution counter 94a, and the effect content is determined for the corresponding effect type corresponding to the numerical information after the addition. The contents of the production may be determined using the table. Therefore, simplification of processing is achieved.

  Furthermore, the initial value of the effect execution counter 94a in which the effect content determination table is set is common to “1” for any lottery result pattern. Accordingly, when the content of the effect is determined by the MPU 92 of the sound emission control device 90, it is only necessary to start from a common initial value for the effect execution counter 94a and determine the effect content of various corresponding effects. However, the process can be simplified.

  Here, the MPU 92 of the sound emission control device 90 determines the contents of the effect in order from the corresponding effect corresponding to the smaller value in the numerical information of the effect execution counter 94a. That is, when the contents of the production are determined for all of “1” to “7” of the production execution counter 94a, the production of “final stop symbol” → the production of “stage switching” → the “first notice production” → “first” The content of the production is determined in the order of “2 notice production” → “normal reach production” → “super reach stage” production → “cut-in production”. On the other hand, in the game times in which all the corresponding effects “1” to “7” of the effect execution counter 94a are executed, the various corresponding effects are executed in an order different from the order of determining the effect contents. Specifically, “stage switching” effect → “first notice effect” → “final stop design” effect → “second notice effect” → “normal reach effect” → “super reach stage” effect → The production is executed in the order of “cut-in production”.

  However, even if the order of determining the content of the production is different from the order of the performance execution in this way, the difference in the order is that the content of the production is determined in both the one lottery result pattern and the other lottery result patterns. It is performed in a range in which the effect type that is the target and the effect type that is the target of the determination of the effect content are not mixed on only one side. In other words, the “final stop symbol” effect, the “stage switching” effect, and the “first notice effect” are commonly set as the determination targets of the effect contents in all lottery result patterns. The “second notice effect” and the “normal reach effect” are set in common as the determination target of the effect content in the lottery result pattern other than “completely off”. The “Super Reach Stage” production and the “Cut-in Production” are “Super-reaching”, “Super-reaching normal hit”, and “Super-reaching”. It exists as a third effect range that is commonly set as the effect content determination target at the “probable hit”. In this case, the difference in the order is performed only between the various corresponding effects included in the first effect range, and is not performed so as to straddle a plurality of effect ranges. As a result, even if the order of determination of the production contents is different from the order of production execution, in each lottery result pattern, if the production content is determined from the corresponding production corresponding to the common initial value of the production execution counter 94a. In addition, the effect content determination table may be read according to the numerical information of the effect execution counter 94a set by the serial number.

  In order to achieve such effects, the difference in order between the various corresponding effects included in the first effect range and the difference in order between the various corresponding effects included in the second effect range. It is sufficient that at least one of the differences in the order between the various corresponding effects included in the third effect range is performed. For example, the order is different between the various corresponding effects included in the first effect range. In addition, the order may be different between the various corresponding effects included in the second effect range, the order may be different between the various corresponding effects included in the second effect range, and the third effect range may be included. The order may be made different between the various corresponding effects included, or the order between the various corresponding effects may be made different in each of all the effect areas.

  In the large frame determination table 93a, in addition to the effect content determination table, numerical information indicating importance is set in a one-to-one correspondence with each numerical information of the effect execution counter 94a. The importance is a parameter indicating whether or not the corresponding effect is executed and the expectation of the jackpot result with respect to the execution contents. The degree becomes higher. As will be described later, the importance level is used when correcting the contents of the corresponding effect.

  Note that the degree of expectation of the jackpot result refers to, for example, when a specific type of corresponding effect is executed according to a predetermined effect content, It is a parameter indicating the probability of a jackpot result when it is executed in relation to the probability of being executed in a game time that does not result. Therefore, if the expected degree of the predetermined effect content is 10%, the game times in which the predetermined effect content is executed correspond to the jackpot result with a probability of 10%, and the expected degree of the predetermined effect content is 90%. If it is%, the game times in which the predetermined production contents are executed correspond to the jackpot result with a probability of 90%.

  Next, a specific data structure of the effect content determination table will be described with reference to FIG. FIGS. 16A to 16G show tables corresponding to the above various corresponding effects, and among FIGS. 16A to 16G, FIG. (B) is a table referred to at the time of “super reach probability change”.

  The MPU 92 of the sound emission control device 90 acquires numerical information from the effect lottery counter 94b provided in the RWM 94 of the sound emission control device 90 when determining the contents of the various corresponding effects. The effect lottery counter 94b is a loop counter that is incremented one by one within the range of 0 to 99 and returns to 0 after reaching the maximum value. The numerical information of the effect lottery counter 94b is updated periodically (for example, at a cycle of 2 msec) in the MPU 92 of the sound emission control device 90, and the numerical information is acquired from the effect lottery counter 94b at a predetermined timing described later. Is done.

  Each production content determination table indicates which production content corresponds to all the numerical information of the production lottery counter 94b. Specifically, in each production content determination table, numerical information serving as a boundary between different production contents is set, and each production content is set as a continuous numerical range.

  For example, in the case of the production content determination table corresponding to the production of the “final stop symbol” shown in FIG. On the other hand, “execution” is set to 80 to 99, and “not executed” is set to 0 to 49 in “super reach probability change”, whereas “execution” is set to 50 to 99 Has been. Further, for example, in the case of the effect content determination table corresponding to the “normal reach effect” shown in FIG. 16E, “not executed” is set to 0 to 30 when “out of super reach”, and “reach effect” "A" is set to 31 to 65, "Reach production B" is set to 66 to 99, "Unperformed" is set to 0 to 10 in "Super reach probability change", and "Reach production A" "Is set to 11 to 35, and" reach effect B "is set to 36 to 99.

  Incidentally, as shown in FIGS. 16 (A) to 16 (G), in the case of “out of super reach”, the minimum value of the production content with the highest expectation level of the jackpot result in the various corresponding productions is the production lottery counter 94b. On the other hand, the value is larger than the median value of the numerical value information, and at the time of “super reach probability change”, the minimum value is equal to or less than the median value of the numerical information of the effect lottery counter 94b.

  Next, the game times control process executed by the MPU 92 of the sound emission control device 90 will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. The game times control process is activated when a variation command and a type command are received from the MPU 62 of the main control device 60.

  First, in step S401, the display duration corresponding to the current game round and the contents of the lottery result determined by the MPU 62 of the main controller 60 are grasped from the contents of the variation command and the type command received this time.

  In subsequent step S402, the content of the lottery result pattern is grasped from the display duration and the content of the lottery result grasped in step S401. Specifically, the game times of this time are "completely missed", "normally missed reach", "superreach missed", "normal reach hit", "super reach normal hit", and "super reach probability change" Understand which of “time” corresponds. Note that the reference table stored in advance in the ROM 93 of the sound emission control device 90 is referred to for the grasp. In the reference table, the contents of the lottery result pattern are determined in correspondence with the combination of the display duration time and the lottery result.

  In subsequent step S403, the number-of-effects information N corresponding to the lottery result pattern grasped in step S402 is read from the ROM 93 of the sound emission control device 90. The production number information N is set in advance in a one-to-one correspondence with the lottery result pattern. In step S404, the numerical value information of the effect execution counter 94a is set to “1”, which is a common initial value among the lottery result patterns.

  Thereafter, in steps S405 to S408, processing for determining the content of the effect is executed for the type of corresponding effect corresponding to the numerical information of the effect execution counter 94a.

  Specifically, in step S405, processing for obtaining numerical information X from the effect lottery counter 94b is executed. In the subsequent step S406, a correction process for correcting the acquired numerical information X is executed. The correction process will be described later in detail.

  In a succeeding step S407, the large frame determination table 93a is read from the ROM 93. Then, by referring to the large frame determination table 93a, an effect content determination table corresponding to the combination of the current lottery result pattern and the numerical value information of the current effect execution counter 94a is read from the ROM 93. After that, in step S408, the effect content corresponding to the numerical information X acquired in step S405 or the numerical information X corrected in step S406 is determined by referring to the effect content determination table read in step S407. To do.

  After the execution of the processes in steps S405 to S408, it is determined in step S409 whether or not the current numerical value information of the effect execution counter 94a matches the effect number information N read in step S403. If not, in step S410, the numerical value information of the effect execution counter 94a is incremented by 1, and then the process returns to step S405. On the other hand, if they match, the process proceeds to steps S411 to S413.

  In step S411, a clear process for initializing various areas referred to when the correction process is executed is executed.

  In the subsequent step S412, the display continuation time grasped in step S401 and the contents of the lottery result (the result of the success / failure determination process and the result of the distribution determination process) in the MPU 62 of the main control device 60 are determined in steps S405 to S408. The control pattern of this game time corresponding to the production contents of the various corresponding productions is determined. Then, the light emission control pattern table and the sound output pattern table corresponding to the control pattern are read from the ROM 93 of the sound light emission control device 90. The MPU 92 of the sound light emission control device 90 controls the light emission of the game times by controlling the light emission of the display light emitting unit 44 in a manner shown in the light emission control pattern table in a process different from the game time control process. The sound output control of the game times is performed by driving and controlling the speaker unit 45 in the manner shown in the sound output pattern table.

  In subsequent step S413, after the effect pattern command corresponding to the control pattern determined in step S412 is transmitted to the display control device 100, this game number control process is terminated.

  FIG. 18 is a flowchart showing a V interrupt process executed periodically (for example, at a cycle of 4 msec) by the MPU of the display control apparatus 100. If the effect pattern command is received, an affirmative determination is made in step S501, and a data table selection process is executed in step S502. In the data table selection process, a data table corresponding to the effect pattern command is read from the ROM of the display control device 100. The data table includes the display duration in the current game round, the contents of the lottery results (results of the success / failure determination process and the results of the distribution determination process) in the MPU 62 of the main control device 60, and various types in the MPU 92 of the sound emission control device 90. It corresponds to the combination of the determination results of the production contents for the corresponding production. By the way, in step S502, when the content indicating that the “final stop symbol” effect is not executed is defined in the effect pattern command, the type of symbol to be finally stopped and displayed on the symbol display device 31 in the current game round ( However, “7” symbol used for the production of “final stop symbol” is determined by lottery), and in this case, data corresponding to the content of the symbol type determined by the lottery Read the table. Then, after the data table is read, the pointer update process of the data table is executed in step S503 so that an image corresponding to the content defined in the data table is displayed on the symbol display device 31. In step S504, a task process for executing the process indicated at the location corresponding to the updated pointer in the data table is executed. In step S505, the result of the task process is displayed as a symbol display device. After executing the drawing list output process for outputting to the control unit for outputting the image to 31, the V interrupt process is terminated. Thereby, in the symbol display device 31, an image is displayed with a display control pattern corresponding to the effect control pattern determined by the MPU 92 of the sound emission control device 90.

  Next, the correction process executed in step S406 of the game times control process (FIG. 17) will be described.

  In the pachinko machine 10, the content of the performance on the side where the expectation level of the jackpot result is high in each of the corresponding types of performances executed in one game round continues accidentally, and the expectation level of the jackpot result is low The content of the production is corrected in order to prevent the production content on the side from continuing accidentally continuing. In the correction, the numerical value information acquired from the effect lottery counter 94b for determining the content of the effect of one type of the corresponding effect is determined in advance in the order in which the content of the effect is determined in the game times including the corresponding effect. The total value (hereinafter referred to as the accumulated point value) of the numerical information of the effect lottery counter 94b acquired at the time of determining the effect content of the corresponding effect is used. The accumulated point value is stored in an accumulated point counter 94c provided in the RWM 94 of the sound emission control device 90.

  In the correction, the accumulated point value is not simply used, but is used as a shift amount from the accumulated median. That is, when the numerical information of the effect lottery counter 94b used for determining the content of the effect for one type of corresponding effect is summed as the accumulated point value, the numerical information of the summation target can be taken as the maximum value. Half of the values are summed as the cumulative median value. The numerical information acquired from the effect lottery counter 94b to determine the effect content of one type of corresponding effect is corrected according to the amount of deviation of the accumulated point value from the accumulated median. The cumulative median value is stored in a cumulative median counter 94d provided in the RWM 94 of the sound emission control device 90.

  Hereinafter, the correction processing will be described in detail with reference to the flowchart of FIG.

  First, in steps S601 to S605, a process for intentionally operating the cumulative median value is executed when the initial adjustment condition is satisfied.

  Specifically, first, in step S601, it is determined whether or not the numerical information of the effect execution counter is “1”, which is a common initial value. It is determined whether or not the lottery result pattern grasped in S402 is “at the time of super-reach probability change”. If a negative determination is made in either step S601 or step S602, it is determined that the initial adjustment condition is not satisfied, and the process proceeds to step S606 without executing the processes in steps S603 to S605, and steps S601 and S602 are performed. If affirmative determination is made in both cases, it is determined that the initial adjustment condition is satisfied, and the process proceeds to step S603.

  In step S603, a lottery process for initial adjustment is executed. In the lottery process, numerical information is acquired from an initial adjustment counter (not shown) provided in the RWM 94 of the sound emission control device 90, and the acquired numerical information is the initial adjustment winning set in the ROM 93 of the sound emission control device 90. It is determined whether or not the numerical information matches. The initial adjustment counter is a loop counter that is incremented one by one within the range of 0 to 99 and returns to 0 after reaching the maximum value. The updating of numerical information of the initial adjustment counter is performed by the sound emission control. It is executed periodically (for example, at a period of 2 msec) in the MPU 92 of the apparatus 90. In addition, since 10 pieces of numerical information for initial adjustment winning are set within a range of 0 to 99, the initial adjustment winning is performed with a probability of 10%.

  In a succeeding step S604, it is determined whether or not an initial adjustment winning is made. If the initial adjustment winning is not performed, the process proceeds to step S606 without executing step S605, that is, without performing the initial adjustment of the cumulative median value. If the initial adjustment winning is selected, the process proceeds to step S605. Then, after “10000” is set in the cumulative median value counter 94d of the RWM 94, the process proceeds to step S606. The operation when the initial adjustment is performed will be described later.

  In step S606, the accumulated point value is read from the accumulated point counter 94c of the RWM 94, and the accumulated median value is read from the accumulated median value counter 94d of the RWM 94. In step S607, a correction determination calculation process is executed. In the calculation process, a value of “cumulative point value” / “cumulative median value” × 100 is calculated (hereinafter, this value is referred to as a calculated value).

  Thereafter, in step S608, it is determined whether or not the calculated value in step S607 is less than “100−Y”, and in step S609, it is determined whether or not the calculated value in step S607 is “100 + Y” or more. Y is a correction reference value and is preset in the ROM 93 of the sound emission control device 90. For example, if Y is “30”, it is determined whether or not the calculated value is less than “70” in step S608, and whether or not the calculated value is “130” or more is determined in step S609. It will be judged.

  If the calculated value is less than “100−Y”, an affirmative determination is made in step S608, and the ascent correction process in steps S610 and S611 is executed. That is, in step S610, the upward correction is performed by the equation X / 2 + 50 for the numerical information X acquired in step S405 of the game times control process (FIG. 17). In this case, regardless of the value of the numerical information X acquired in step S405, the corrected numerical information X has a value of 50 or more. That is, by performing the correction, the numerical value range to be referred to in the corresponding effect content determination table is narrowed to 50 or more. Further, the corrected numerical information X can take decimals such as “57.5” and “89.5”, but the numerical information X that has become the decimals is handled as an integer by rounding off the decimal part. . In subsequent step S611, the calculation result after the upward correction is overwritten in the effect content determination area of the RWM 94 in which the numerical information X was stored after the execution of step S405.

  If the calculated value is equal to or greater than “100 + Y”, an affirmative determination is made in step S609, and the descent correction process in steps S612 and S613 is executed. In other words, in step S612, the numerical value X acquired in step S405 of the game times control process (FIG. 17) is subjected to a downward correction using a formula of X / 2. In this case, regardless of the value of the numerical information X acquired in step S405, the corrected numerical information X has a value of 49 or less. That is, by performing the correction, the numerical range to be referred to in the corresponding effect content determination table is narrowed to 49 or less. The corrected numerical information X can take decimals such as “14.5” and “35.5”, but the numerical information X that has become the decimals is handled as an integer by rounding off the decimal part. . In the subsequent step S613, the calculation result after the downward correction is overwritten in the effect content determination area of the RWM 94 in which the numerical information X was stored after the execution of the step S405.

  If a negative determination is made in both step S608 and step S609, the process proceeds to step S614 after the process of step S611 or after the process of step S613. In step S614, importance level reflection processing is executed. Specifically, the numerical information X stored in the effect content determination area is read, and the numerical information on the importance of the effect corresponding to the determination of the current effect content is added to the numerical information X. Further, the numerical value information of the importance is added to “49” which is a fixed median value in all types of effects. Even when the importance reflection process is executed, the numerical information stored in the effect content determination area is not updated.

  In the subsequent step S615, the numerical value information obtained by accumulating the numerical value information of importance with respect to the numerical information X is added to the cumulative point counter 94c of the RWM 94, and the numerical value information of importance with respect to the fixed median value is added. The numerical information obtained as a result of the accumulation is added to the cumulative median counter 94d of the RWM 94. Thereafter, the correction process is terminated.

  Next, the operation when the correction process is executed will be described in detail. First, the case where the downward correction is performed in a situation where the lottery result pattern is “out of super reach” will be described with reference to the explanatory diagrams of FIGS.

  As shown in FIG. 20 (a), the production content for the production of the “final stop symbol” is first determined. At this time, the accumulated point value and the accumulated median value are “1”, which is a common initial value. It has become. In this case, when determining the production content for the production of the “final stop symbol”, neither the upward correction nor the downward correction is executed, and the numerical information X acquired from the production lottery counter 94b is “ 95 "is used as it is when determining the contents of the production. Accordingly, “execution” is selected as the production content for the production of “final stop symbol”. In addition, since the importance of the “final stop symbol” is set to “3”, “285” (95 × 3) is added to the cumulative point value and the cumulative median value is “ 147 ”(49 × 3) is added.

  Subsequently, the production content is determined for the production of “stage switching”. In this case, since the accumulated point value is “286” and the accumulated median is “148”, the calculated value by the calculation process for correction determination (step S607) is “193.2”. Since this is a value equal to or higher than the reference value for downward correction, it is a target for downward correction. Therefore, while the numerical information X acquired from the production lottery counter 94b is “80”, the numerical information X actually used is “40”, and the production contents of the production of “stage switching” are corrected. In the case of the previous numerical information X, “execution” is selected, but “non-execution” is actually selected. In addition, since the importance of the “stage switching” is set to “1”, “40” (40 × 1) is added to the accumulated point value, and “49” is added to the accumulated median value. (49 × 1) is added.

  Subsequently, the content of the effect is determined for the “first notice effect”. In this case, since the accumulated point value is “326” and the accumulated median is “197”, the calculated value by the calculation process for correction determination (step S607) is “165.5”. Since this is a value equal to or higher than the reference value for downward correction, it is a target for downward correction. Therefore, while the numerical information X acquired from the effect lottery counter 94b is “90”, the numerical information X actually used is “45”, and the content of the “first notice effect” is corrected. In the case of the previous numerical information X, the “first notice effect B” is selected, whereas the “first notice effect A” is actually selected. In addition, since the importance level is set to “2” for the “first notice effect”, “90” (45 × 2) is added to the accumulated point value, and “98” is added to the accumulated median value. (49 × 2) is added.

  Subsequently, the content of the effect is determined for the “second notice effect”. In this case, since the accumulated point value is “416” and the accumulated median is “295”, the calculated value by the calculation process for correction determination (step S607) is “141.0”. Since this is a value equal to or higher than the reference value for downward correction, it is a target for downward correction. Therefore, while the numerical information X acquired from the effect lottery counter 94b is “92”, the numerical information X actually used is “46”, and the content of the “second notice effect” is corrected. In the case of the previous numerical information X, the “second notice effect B” is selected, whereas “non-execution” is actually selected. Further, since the importance level is set to “2” for the “second notice effect”, “92” (46 × 2) is added to the accumulated point value, and “98” is added to the accumulated median value. (49 × 2) is added.

  Subsequently, the content of the effect is determined for the “normal reach effect”. In this case, since the accumulated point value is “508” and the accumulated median is “393”, the calculated value by the calculation process for correction determination (step S607) is “129.3”. Since this is a value that is less than the reference value for downward correction and greater than or equal to the reference value for upward correction, it is a target without correction. Therefore, “70”, which is the numerical information X acquired from the effect lottery counter 94b, is used as it is when determining the effect content, and “reach effect B” is selected as the effect content for the “normal reach effect”. Since the “normal reach effect” has an importance set to “3”, “210” (70 × 3) is added to the cumulative point value and “147” is added to the cumulative median value. (49 × 3) is added.

  Next, the production content is determined for the production of “Super Reach Stage”. In this case, since the accumulated point value is “718” and the accumulated median is “540”, the calculated value by the calculation process for correction determination (step S607) is “133.0”. Since this is a value equal to or higher than the reference value for downward correction, it is a target for downward correction. Therefore, while the numerical information X acquired from the production lottery counter 94b is “99”, the numerical information X actually used is “49”, and the production content of the production of the “super reach stage” is In the case of numerical information X before correction, “stage B” is selected, whereas “stage A” is actually selected. In addition, since the degree of importance of the “super reach stage” is set to “7”, “343” (49 × 7) is added to the accumulated point value, and the accumulated median value is added to the accumulated median value. “343” (49 × 7) is added.

  Subsequently, the content of the production is determined for the “cut-in production”. In this case, since the accumulated point value is “1061” and the accumulated median is “883”, the calculated value by the calculation process for correction determination (step S607) is “120.2”. Since this is a value that is less than the reference value for downward correction and greater than or equal to the reference value for upward correction, it is a target without correction. Therefore, “90”, which is the numerical information X acquired from the effect lottery counter 94b, is used as it is when determining the effect content, and “cut-in effect B” is selected as the effect content for the “cut-in effect”. In addition, since the importance level of the “cut-in effect” is set to “3”, “270” (90 × 3) is added to the accumulated point value, and “147” is added to the accumulated median value. (49 × 3) is added.

  By performing the correction as described above, the production content that was expected to have the highest expectation of the jackpot result in the various corresponding productions was supposed to be selected. In the type of corresponding production, the production content is changed to the side where the expectation level of the jackpot result is low. That is, as shown in FIG. 20B, when correction is not performed, the “final stop symbol” effect is “execution”, the “stage switching” effect is “execution”, and the “first notice effect” Is “first notice effect B”, “second notice effect” is “second notice effect B”, “normal reach effect” is “reach effect B”, and “super reach stage” effect is “stage B”. Although the “cut-in effect” was “cut-in effect B”, after correction, the “final stop design” effect, the “normal reach effect”, and the “cut-in effect” did not change. The effects of “stage switching”, “first notice effect”, “second notice effect”, and “super reach stage” have been changed to effects that have a lower chance of winning the jackpot result than before the correction. The

  When the player basically estimates the result of the game times by confirming the display content of the symbol display device 31, and the content of the performance with high expectation of the jackpot result continues in various corresponding effects of the game time In the meantime, we expect a great deal of jackpot results. Under such circumstances, if the event occurs when the result of the success / failure determination process in the MPU 62 of the main control device 60 is an outlier result, the player is expected to generate a jackpot result, and the jackpot result The fact that this is not the case is greatly discouraged and the desire to continue playing may be lost. On the other hand, the above-described inconveniences may not occur by correcting as described above and preventing the production contents with high expectation of the jackpot result from continuing. It becomes possible.

  Next, with reference to the explanatory diagrams of FIGS. 21A and 21B, a case will be described in which the upward correction is performed in a situation where the lottery result pattern is “at the time of super-reach probability change”.

  As shown in FIG. 21 (a), the production contents for the production of the “final stop symbol” are determined first. At this time, the accumulated point value and the accumulated median value are “1”, which is a common initial value. It has become. In this case, when determining the production content for the production of the “final stop symbol”, neither the upward correction nor the downward correction is executed, and the numerical information X acquired from the production lottery counter 94b is “ 10 "is used as it is when determining the production content. Therefore, “non-execution” is selected as the content of the “final stop symbol” effect. In addition, since the importance of the “final stop symbol” is set to “3”, “30” (10 × 3) is added to the accumulated point value, and “ 147 ”(49 × 3) is added.

  Subsequently, the production content is determined for the production of “stage switching”. In this case, since the accumulated point value is “31” and the accumulated median is “148”, the calculated value by the calculation process for correction determination (step S607) is “20.9”. Since this is a value less than the reference value for upward correction, it is a target for upward correction. Therefore, while the numerical information X acquired from the production lottery counter 94b is “20”, the numerical information X actually used is “60”, and the production content of the production of the “stage switching” is corrected. In the case of the previous numerical information X, “unexecuted” is selected, but “executed” is actually selected. Further, since the importance of the “stage switching” effect is set to “1”, “60” (60 × 1) is added to the cumulative point value, and “49” is added to the cumulative median value. (49 × 1) is added.

  Subsequently, the content of the effect is determined for the “first notice effect”. In this case, since the accumulated point value is “91” and the accumulated median is “197”, the calculated value by the calculation process for correction determination (step S607) is “46.2”. Since this is a value less than the reference value for upward correction, it is a target for upward correction. Therefore, while the numerical information X acquired from the effect lottery counter 94b is “5”, the numerical information X actually used is “52”, and the content of the “first notice effect” is corrected. The previous numerical information X is “non-execution”, whereas “first notice effect B” is actually selected. In addition, since the importance level is set to “2” for the “first notice effect”, “104” (52 × 2) is added to the accumulated point value, and “98” is added to the accumulated median value. (49 × 2) is added.

  Subsequently, the content of the effect is determined for the “second notice effect”. In this case, since the accumulated point value is “195” and the accumulated median is “295”, the calculated value by the calculation process for correction determination (step S607) is “66.1”. Since this is a value less than the reference value for upward correction, it is a target for upward correction. Accordingly, while the numerical information X acquired from the effect lottery counter 94b is “8”, the numerical information X actually used is “54”, and the content of the “second notice effect” is corrected. In the case of the previous numerical information X, it was “non-execution”, whereas “second notice effect B” is actually selected. Further, since the importance level is set to “2” for the “second notice effect”, “108” (54 × 2) is added to the accumulated point value, and “98” is added to the accumulated median value. (49 × 2) is added.

  Subsequently, the content of the effect is determined for the “normal reach effect”. In this case, since the accumulated point value is “303” and the accumulated median is “393”, the calculated value by the calculation process for correction determination (step S607) is “77.1”. Since this is a value that is less than the reference value for downward correction and greater than or equal to the reference value for upward correction, it is a target without correction. Therefore, “6”, which is the numerical information X acquired from the effect lottery counter 94b, is used as it is when determining the effect content, and “non-execution” is selected as the effect content for the “normal reach effect”. In addition, since the “normal reach effect” has the importance set to “3”, “18” (6 × 3) is added to the accumulated point value and “147” is added to the accumulated median value. (49 × 3) is added.

  Next, the production content is determined for the production of “Super Reach Stage”. In this case, since the accumulated point value is “321” and the accumulated median is “540”, the calculated value by the calculation process for correction determination (step S607) is “59.4”. Since this is a value less than the reference value for upward correction, it is a target for upward correction. Therefore, while the numerical information X acquired from the production lottery counter 94b is “10”, the numerical information X actually used is “55”, and the production content of the production of the “super reach stage” is In the case of numerical information X before correction, “stage A” is selected, but “stage B” is actually selected. Further, since the importance of the “super reach stage” is set to “7”, “385” (55 × 7) is added to the cumulative point value, and the cumulative median value is added to the cumulative median value. “343” (49 × 7) is added.

  Subsequently, the content of the production is determined for the “cut-in production”. In this case, since the accumulated point value is “706” and the accumulated median is “883”, the calculated value by the calculation process for correction determination (step S607) is “80.0”. Since this is a value that is less than the reference value for downward correction and greater than or equal to the reference value for upward correction, it is a target without correction. Therefore, “12”, which is the numerical information X acquired from the effect lottery counter 94b, is used as it is when determining the content of the effect, and “non-execution” is selected as the effect content for the “cut-in effect”. In addition, since the importance level of the “cut-in effect” is set to “3”, “36” (12 × 3) is added to the accumulated point value and “147” is added to the accumulated median value. (49 × 3) is added.

  By performing the correction as described above, the production content that should have the lowest expectation of the jackpot result should have been selected in the various corresponding productions. In the type of corresponding production, the production content is changed to the side where the expectation of the jackpot result is high. That is, as shown in FIG. 21B, when correction is not performed, the “final stop symbol” effect is “non-execution”, the “stage switching” effect is “non-execution”, and “first” "Notice execution" is "Non-execution", "Second notice announcement" is "Non-execution", "Normal reach production" is "Non-execution", "Super reach stage" production is "Stage A", "Cut-in production" ”Was“ Non-execution ”, but after the correction, the“ final stop design ”effect,“ normal reach effect ”, and“ cut-in effect ”did not change, but the“ stage switching ”effect, The effects of the “first notice effect”, “second notice effect”, and “super reach stage” are changed to effect contents that have a higher degree of expectation of the jackpot result than that before the correction.

  When the player basically estimates the result of the game times by confirming the display contents of the symbol display device 31, and the effect content with low expectation of the jackpot result continues in various corresponding effects of the game times Therefore, the occurrence of the jackpot result is not expected, and as a result, the degree of attention to the display content of the symbol display device 31 is lowered. Under such circumstances, when the event occurs when the result of the success / failure determination process in the MPU 62 of the main control device 60 is a jackpot result, the player's attention to the display effect on the symbol display device 31 is reduced. The jackpot result will occur at, and the player's attention to the display effect may not be sufficiently increased. On the other hand, the above-described inconvenience may not occur by correcting as described above and preventing the production contents with low expectation of the jackpot result from continuing. It becomes possible.

  Next, referring to the explanatory diagram of FIG. 22, the initial adjustment process for the cumulative median value is executed in the situation where the lottery result pattern is “at the time of super-reach probability change”, and the increase correction is performed in all the various effects. The case where it is performed will be described.

  As shown in FIG. 22, the production content for the production of “final stop symbol” is determined first. At this time, the accumulated point value is “1” because the process for initial adjustment is executed. In contrast, the cumulative median is “10000”. In this case, the value calculated by the correction determination calculation process (step S607) is “0.01”. Since this is a value less than the reference value for upward correction, it is a target for upward correction. Therefore, while the numerical information X acquired from the production lottery counter 94b is “10”, the numerical information X actually used is “55”, and the production content of the production of the “final stop symbol” is The numerical information X before correction is “not executed”, whereas “executed” is actually selected. In addition, since the importance of the “final stop symbol” is set to “3”, “165” (55 × 3) is added to the cumulative point value, and “147” is added to the cumulative median value. (49 × 3) is added.

  Subsequently, the production content is determined for the production of “stage switching”. In this case, since the accumulated point value is “166” and the accumulated median is “10147”, the calculated value by the calculation process for correction determination (step S607) is “1.6”. Since this is a value less than the reference value for upward correction, it is a target for upward correction. Therefore, while the numerical information X acquired from the production lottery counter 94b is “20”, the numerical information X actually used is “60”, and the production content of the production of the “stage switching” is corrected. In the case of the previous numerical information X, “unexecuted” is selected, but “executed” is actually selected. Further, since the importance of the “stage switching” effect is set to “1”, “60” (60 × 1) is added to the cumulative point value, and “49” is added to the cumulative median value. (49 × 1) is added.

  Subsequently, the content of the effect is determined for the “first notice effect”. In this case, since the accumulated point value is “226” and the accumulated median is “10196”, the calculated value by the calculation process for correction determination (step S607) is “2.2”. Since this is a value less than the reference value for upward correction, it is a target for upward correction. Therefore, while the numerical information X acquired from the effect lottery counter 94b is “5”, the numerical information X actually used is “52”, and the content of the “first notice effect” is corrected. The previous numerical information X is “non-execution”, whereas “first notice effect B” is actually selected. In addition, since the importance level is set to “2” for the “first notice effect”, “104” (52 × 2) is added to the accumulated point value, and “98” is added to the accumulated median value. (49 × 2) is added.

  Subsequently, the content of the effect is determined for the “second notice effect”. In this case, since the accumulated point value is “330” and the accumulated median is “10294”, the calculated value by the calculation process for correction determination (step S607) is “3.2”. Since this is a value less than the reference value for upward correction, it is a target for upward correction. Accordingly, while the numerical information X acquired from the effect lottery counter 94b is “8”, the numerical information X actually used is “54”, and the content of the “second notice effect” is corrected. In the case of the previous numerical information X, it was “non-execution”, whereas “second notice effect B” is actually selected. Further, since the importance level is set to “2” for the “second notice effect”, “108” (54 × 2) is added to the accumulated point value, and “98” is added to the accumulated median value. (49 × 2) is added.

  Subsequently, the content of the effect is determined for the “normal reach effect”. In this case, since the accumulated point value is “438” and the accumulated median is “10392”, the calculated value by the calculation process for correction determination (step S607) is “4.2”. Since this is a value less than the reference value for upward correction, it is a target for upward correction. Therefore, while the numerical information X acquired from the production lottery counter 94b is “6”, the numerical information X actually used is “53”, and the production content of the “normal reach production” is not corrected. In the case of the numerical information X of “No execution”, “Reach effect B” is actually selected. In addition, since the “normal reach effect” has an importance set to “3”, “159” (53 × 3) is added to the cumulative point value and “147” is added to the cumulative median value. (49 × 3) is added.

  Next, the production content is determined for the production of “Super Reach Stage”. In this case, since the accumulated point value is “597” and the accumulated median is “10539”, the calculated value by the calculation process for correction determination (step S607) is “5.7”. Since this is a value less than the reference value for upward correction, it is a target for upward correction. Therefore, while the numerical information X acquired from the production lottery counter 94b is “10”, the numerical information X actually used is “55”, and the production content of the production of the “super reach stage” is In the case of numerical information X before correction, “stage A” is selected, but “stage B” is actually selected. Further, since the importance of the “super reach stage” is set to “7”, “385” (55 × 7) is added to the cumulative point value, and the cumulative median value is added to the cumulative median value. “343” (49 × 7) is added.

  Subsequently, the content of the production is determined for the “cut-in production”. In this case, since the accumulated point value is “982” and the accumulated median is “10882”, the calculated value by the calculation process for correction determination (step S607) is “9.0”. Since this is a value less than the reference value for upward correction, it is a target for upward correction. Therefore, while the numerical information X acquired from the production lottery counter 94b is “12”, the numerical information X actually used is “56”, and the production content of the “cut-in production” is the value before correction. In the case of the numerical information X of “No execution”, “Cut-in effect B” is actually selected. In addition, since the importance level of the “cut-in effect” is set to “3”, “168” (56 × 3) is added to the accumulated point value, and “147” is added to the accumulated median value. (49 × 3) is added.

  As described above, the correction is performed after the initial adjustment is performed on the cumulative median value, so that the increase correction is performed regardless of the numerical information X acquired from the effect lottery counter 94b in all the various corresponding effects. Is called. That is, in all the various corresponding effects, the numerical value information X for determining the effect contents is 50 or more. And, in the production content determination table when the lottery result pattern is “at the time of super-reach probability change”, the numerical information X of 50 or more corresponds to the production content with the highest expectation of the jackpot result in all the above-mentioned various productions. doing. Therefore, it is possible to achieve the production content having the highest expectation level for the jackpot result in all of the various corresponding effects, and it is possible to suitably increase the expectation for the occurrence of the highly accurate big hit result.

  According to the embodiment described in detail above, the following excellent effects are obtained.

  Since the MPU 92 of the sound emission control device 90 determines the contents of the various corresponding effects (including non-execution) by individual lottery, the execution patterns of these various corresponding effects become irregular, Diversification. In this configuration, when determining the production content for one corresponding production, the order of determining the production content is adjusted according to the content determined for the previous production than the one corresponding production. It becomes possible to give a certain degree of restriction to the contents determined for the corresponding effects, and the occurrence of an event that the contents of the various corresponding effects are too biased toward the specific contents is suppressed. Therefore, it is possible to suitably execute various corresponding effects.

  When it is determined that the order of determining the content of the performance is higher than that of the one corresponding effect, the expectation result that is a big hit result for the previous corresponding effect is an expectation that will be a jackpot result in the one corresponding effect Production contents with a low degree (including non-execution of the production) are easily determined. In the configuration in which the production contents of various types of corresponding effects are determined individually by lottery, there is a possibility that the corresponding effects of the production contents with high expectation level resulting in a jackpot result will accidentally continue. In particular, if such an event occurs in a game round that results in an outlier, the player will be overwhelmingly expected to generate a jackpot result even though it is not actually a jackpot result. May reduce the willingness to continue. On the other hand, the occurrence of such an event can be suppressed by performing the downward correction as described above.

  If it is determined that the order of determining the content of the production is lower than the expectation that results in the jackpot result for the previous production (including non-execution of the production), the one correspondence In the production, it is easy to determine the production content with a high expectation level resulting in the jackpot result. In the configuration in which the production contents of the various corresponding effects are individually determined by lottery, there is a possibility that the corresponding effects of the production contents with low expectation level resulting in the jackpot result will be accidentally continuous. In particular, when such an event occurs in a game round that results in a jackpot result, the player cannot be expected to generate a jackpot result despite the fact that the game results in a jackpot result. If such an event occurs many times, the player may lose interest in the effect executed by the symbol display device 31 or the like. On the other hand, it is possible to suppress the occurrence of such an event by performing the upward correction as described above.

  The downward correction and the upward correction as described above are performed within one game round. Thereby, it becomes possible to make the contents of various corresponding effects independent between the game times. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the influence of the game times corresponding to the jackpot result from affecting the game times corresponding to the losing result and vice versa.

  In the case of performing the above-described downward correction or the above-mentioned upward correction for one corresponding effect, the correction is performed based on the contents of the effects of a plurality of corresponding effects whose order of determining the content of the effect precedes the one corresponding effect. Thereby, in the case of the said correction | amendment, the influence of the production content of a single corresponding | compatible effect is reduced. Therefore, even if the above correction is performed, the relevance of the production content of one corresponding production to the content of the production of the single corresponding production whose order of determination is earlier than that, Are easily recognized by the player as independent.

  The above correction is performed within a range in which the relationship between the production contents and the expectation level of the jackpot result is not changed for various corresponding effects. As a result, it is possible to achieve the excellent effects as described above without changing the significance of the contents of the various corresponding effects.

  The correction is performed so that numerical information referred to when determining the content of the effect is limited to a part of the numerical value range of the effect lottery counter 94b. Thereby, since it is not necessary to change the effect content determination table for correction, the correction can be performed while suppressing an increase in storage capacity.

  Further, the correction is performed so that the numerical information acquired from the effect lottery counter 94b is narrowed down to a part of the numerical value range of the effect lottery counter 94b. As a result, correction can be performed using the effect lottery counter 94b as it is, so that it is possible to suppress an increase in storage capacity compared to a configuration in which a correction counter is separately provided.

  The execution order of the various effects does not match the order of determining the contents of the effects of the various effects. Specifically, although the “final stop symbol” effect has an execution order after the “stage switching” effect and the “first notice effect”, the order of determining the contents of the effect is prior to these corresponding effects. Is set. As a result, when the content of the “stage switching” effect is determined or when the content of the “first notice effect” is determined, the effect of the effect determined in the “final stop symbol” effect is affected. It becomes possible.

  The numerical information X used when the content of the corresponding effect is determined or the numerical information proportional to the numerical information X is aggregated as a cumulative point value, and the median of the numerical range corresponding thereto is aggregated as the cumulative median, Correction is performed using the totaled result. That is, in the configuration in which the production content of the corresponding production is determined using the numerical information X acquired from the production lottery counter 94b, the production content can be corrected using the numerical information X. As a result, the above correction can be performed using the configuration for determining the production contents of the corresponding performance, so that the excellent effects as described above can be achieved while simplifying the configuration. It becomes.

  By performing correction using not only the accumulated point value but also the accumulated median value, the numerical information corresponding to the change from the median value of the numerical information X acquired at the time of determining the production content of each corresponding effect is used. Thus, the correction process is performed. Accordingly, it is possible to set a criterion for determining whether or not to perform correction and a criterion corresponding to the content of the correction without depending on the number of corresponding effects that have been counted. As a result, it becomes possible to facilitate the work regarding the setting of the reference, and it is possible to suppress an increase in storage capacity. In particular, the ratio between the cumulative point value and the cumulative median value is calculated, and the presence / absence of correction and the content of correction are determined according to the calculation result, so it does not depend on the number of corresponding productions targeted for aggregation. The above criteria can be set.

  If the ratio between the cumulative point value and the cumulative median value is included in the high-side numerical range corresponding to the production content side where the expectation level of the jackpot result is high, the downward correction is performed, and the production content with a low expectation level of the jackpot result When it is included in the low-side numerical range corresponding to the side, the upward correction is performed. As a result, it is possible to prevent the production contents having a high expectation level of the jackpot result from continuing or the production contents having a low expectation degree of the jackpot result from being continued. In this case, the high-side numerical range and the low-side numerical range are set as numerical ranges that are symmetrical with respect to the median of the numerical range that can be generated as a ratio of the accumulated point value and the accumulated median. Thereby, it is possible to make the frequency with which the upward correction and the downward correction are executed approximately the same.

  In the upward correction, the numerical information X acquired from the effect lottery counter 94b is corrected so as to be included in the numerical range for upward correction that is equal to or greater than the median value of the numerical range of the effect lottery counter 94b. In the configuration in which the numerical information X acquired from the effect lottery counter 94b is corrected so as to be included in the numerical range for downward correction that is less than the median value of the numerical range of the effect lottery counter 94b, The numerical range for downward correction is set so as not to overlap each other, and is set so as to coincide with the entire numerical range of the effect lottery counter 94b by making these numerical ranges continuous. This makes it possible to correct the content of the production in a manner in which it is difficult to change the relationship between the content of the production of various types of production and the expectation of the jackpot result.

  When the ratio between the cumulative point value and the cumulative median value is included in the central numerical range including the median of the numerical ranges that can be generated as the ratio, no correction is performed. As a result, it is possible to cause a situation in which the content of the effect is not corrected, and it is possible to ensure irregularity while giving a certain degree of limitation to the content of the effect of various corresponding effects. In addition, if the ratio between the cumulative point value and the cumulative median value is included in the central numerical range, the production content is not corrected, so even if the ratio converges toward the central numerical range, In some cases, the contents of the performance are determined irregularly. Therefore, it becomes difficult to change the relationship between the production contents of various corresponding effects and the expectation level of the jackpot result.

  When the accumulated point value and the accumulated median value are aggregated, the numerical values are aggregated while the importance is reflected. Thereby, it is possible to aggregate each numerical value while taking into account the types of various corresponding effects. Therefore, in correcting the production contents of the various corresponding effects, it is possible to produce an effect with a small influence and an effect with a large influence, and it is possible to give an inflection to the mutual relationship of the various corresponding effects.

<Second Embodiment>
In the present embodiment, the configuration for correcting the production contents of various corresponding effects is different from that in the first embodiment. Hereinafter, the different configuration will be described. In the following description, the description of the same configuration as that of the first embodiment is basically omitted.

  FIG. 23A to FIG. 23C are explanatory diagrams for explaining the large frame determination tables 193a to 193c in the present embodiment.

  In the first embodiment, one large frame determination table 93a that is common to all the lottery result patterns is prepared. However, in the present embodiment, the number of various effects that can be executed is different. Large frame determination tables 193a to 193c are prepared corresponding to each pattern to be performed. Specifically, in the “completely out” state, the number of various corresponding effects that can be executed is three, unlike the other lottery result patterns, so the large frame determining table 193a for the “completely out” is displayed. It is prepared. Also, in the case of “out of normal reach” and “in case of normal reach”, the number of performances that can be executed among the various corresponding productions is five, unlike other lottery result patterns, so these “out of normal reach” and “in case of normal reach” Large frame determination table 193b is prepared. In addition, the number of executions that can be executed among the various corresponding effects in the case of “out of super reach”, “at the time of super reach” and “at the time of super reach probability change” is seven, unlike other lottery result patterns, A large frame determination table 193c is prepared for “when the super reach is lost”, “when the super reach is normal hit” and “when the super reach is probable change”.

  The types of corresponding effects corresponding to the numerical information of the effect execution counter 94a are different for each large frame determination table 193a to 193c. That is, in the first large frame determination table 193a, “1” of the production execution counter 94a corresponds to the “final stop symbol” production, and “2” corresponds to the “first notice production”. “3” corresponds to the effect of “stage switching”. In the second large frame determination table 193b, “1” of the effect execution counter 94a corresponds to “second notice effect”, “2” corresponds to “first notice effect”, “ “3” corresponds to the “final stop symbol” effect, “4” corresponds to the “normal reach effect”, and “5” corresponds to the “stage switching” effect. In the third large frame determination table 193c, “1” of the performance execution counter 94a corresponds to the “super reach stage” performance, and “2” corresponds to the “first notice effect”. , “3” corresponds to the “second notice effect”, “4” corresponds to the “stage switching” effect, “5” corresponds to the “final stop symbol” effect, “6” corresponds to “cut-in effect”, and “7” corresponds to “normal reach effect”.

  Even in the present embodiment, as in the first embodiment, the contents of the effect are corrected, and further, the numerical value information of importance is accumulated when adding to the accumulated point value and the accumulated total value. This addition is performed. Then, in the corresponding effect set in the order later than the effect with high importance in the determination order of the effect content, the influence of the numerical information X for determining the effect content in the corresponding effect with high importance becomes large. In this case, by setting the corresponding effect with high importance in the order of determination of the production contents, the influence of the numerical information X for the production content determination in the corresponding production with high importance is executed. Regardless of the order, it can be applied to various corresponding effects, and correction is likely to occur. In the present embodiment, the numerical value information of importance is different from that in the first embodiment.

  FIG. 24 is a flowchart showing the correction processing in this embodiment.

  First, in step S701, it is determined whether or not the numerical information of the effect execution counter 94a is “1”. If the numerical value information of the effect execution counter 94a is “1”, a lottery process of accumulated point values is executed in step S702. In the lottery process, numerical information is acquired from a counter for cumulative points (not shown) provided in the RWM 94 of the sound emission control device 90, and the acquired numerical information is a table for cumulative points set in the ROM 93 of the sound emission control device 90. To determine which of the accumulated point values corresponds. In this case, a plurality of cumulative point values that can be selected are set such as “1”, “10”, “20”, “30”, “40”,. The cumulative point counter is a loop counter that is incremented one by one within a range of 0 to 99 and returns to 0 after reaching the maximum value. The update of numerical information of the cumulative point counter is performed by sound emission control. It is executed periodically (for example, at a period of 2 msec) in the MPU 92 of the apparatus 90. Thereafter, in step S703, the cumulative point value obtained in the lottery process in step S702 is overwritten on the cumulative point counter 94c.

  In the subsequent step S704, a cumulative median lottery process is executed. In the lottery process, numerical information is acquired from a counter for cumulative median value (not shown) provided in the RWM 94 of the sound emission control device 90, and the acquired numerical information is the cumulative median value set in the ROM 93 of the sound emission control device 90. To know which cumulative median in the table is corresponding. In this case, a plurality of kinds of cumulative median values that can be selected are set such as “1”, “10”, “20”, “30”, “40”,. The cumulative median counter is a loop counter that increments one by one within the range of 0 to 99 and returns to 0 after reaching the maximum value. It is executed periodically (for example, at a cycle of 2 msec) in the MPU 92 of the light emission control device 90. Thereafter, in step S705, the cumulative median value obtained in the lottery process in step S704 is overwritten on the cumulative median counter 94d.

  By the way, the cumulative point value that can be selected in the lottery process in step S702 and the cumulative median value that can be selected in the lottery process in step S704 are the contents of the production with the highest expectation level for generating the jackpot result. The events that are forcibly selected in all, and the production contents on the side with the lowest expectation level where the jackpot result is generated are set in a range in which the events that are forcibly selected in all the corresponding productions do not occur.

  If a negative determination is made in step S701, or after execution of step S705, the process proceeds to step S706. In step S706, the accumulated point value is read from the accumulated point counter 94c of the RWM 94, and the accumulated median value is read from the accumulated median counter 94d of the RWM 94. In step S707, a correction determination calculation process is executed. The processing content of the calculation processing is the same as that in step S607 of the correction processing (FIG. 19) in the first embodiment.

  In the subsequent step S708, the process for acquiring the reference value Y corresponding to the effect execution counter 94a is executed. Specifically, a reference value table is set in the ROM 93 of the sound emission control device 90 for the acquisition process. In the reference value table, as shown in the explanatory diagram of FIG. 25, the reference value Y is set in correspondence with the numerical information of “1” to “7” of the effect execution counter 94a. In this case, the reference value Y is set to be smaller on the larger value information side of the performance execution counter 94a than on the smaller value information side. Specifically, the reference value Y is “30” when the numerical information of the effect execution counter 94a is “1” and “2”, and the reference value Y when the numerical information of the effect execution counter 94a is “3” and “4”. Is “25”, the reference value Y is “20” when the numerical information of the effect execution counter 94a is “5” and “6”, and the reference value Y is “7” when the numerical information of the effect execution counter 94a is “7”. 15 ". However, it is not limited to the configuration in which the reference value Y is the same among some numerical information of the effect execution counter 94a as described above, and the reference value Y is different among all the numerical information of the effect execution counter 94a. It is good also as composition which has.

  Returning to the description of the correction process (FIG. 24), after executing the process of step S708, after executing the processes of step S709 to step S716, the present correction process is terminated. The processing contents of steps S709 to S716 are the same as the processing contents of steps S608 to S615 of the correction processing (FIG. 19) in the first embodiment.

  According to the embodiment described above in detail, in the configuration in which the presence / absence of correction and the content of correction are determined by the ratio between the cumulative point value and the cumulative median value, the initial values of the cumulative point value and the cumulative median value are determined by lottery. It is determined. Thereby, in each game round, the execution pattern of the correction for each corresponding effect is diversified.

  In the configuration in which the ratio between the accumulated point value and the accumulated median value is used when correcting the effect content, the deviation amount of the accumulated point value with respect to the accumulated median value becomes smaller as the corresponding effect on the rear side of the effect content determination order. In this case, if the reference value Y serving as a reference for performing correction is common among the various corresponding effects, correction is less likely to occur in the corresponding corresponding effect in the order of determining the effect contents. On the other hand, the reference value Y is set so that the order in which the content of the effect is determined becomes smaller as the corresponding effect on the rear side, that is, the numerical range to be corrected becomes wider as the corresponding effect on the rear side becomes larger. Correction is likely to occur even if the order is the corresponding effect on the back side.

<Third Embodiment>
In the present embodiment, the processing configuration of the game times control process is different from that of the first embodiment. Hereinafter, the different configuration will be described. In the following description, the description of the same configuration as that of the first embodiment is basically omitted.

  FIG. 26 is a flowchart showing game times control processing in the present embodiment.

  First, in step S801, initial setting processing is executed. In the initial setting process, processes similar to steps S401 to S403 of the game times control process (FIG. 17) in the first embodiment are executed.

  In subsequent step S802, the numerical value information of the effect execution counter 94a is set to “1” which is a common initial value among the lottery result patterns, and in step S803, the numerical information X is acquired from the effect lottery counter 94b. In step S804, a correction process is executed. In step S805, an effect content determination table is read. In step S806, an effect content determination process is executed. Among these processes, the processing contents of step S802, step S803, step S805, and step S806 are the same as those in step S404, step S405, step S407, and step S408 of the game times control process (FIG. 17) in the first embodiment. This is the same as the processing content.

  On the other hand, the processing content of step S804 is partially different from the processing content of step S406 of the game times control processing (FIG. 17) in the first embodiment. Specifically, as one of the differences, the correction processing in step S804 is different from the correction processing in the first embodiment (FIG. 19), the importance reflection processing in step S614, and step S615. The update process of the accumulated point value and the accumulated median value is not executed. Instead, in the present embodiment, importance level reflection processing is executed in step S807 of the game times control processing, and cumulative point value and cumulative median value update processing is executed in step S808.

  That is, in step S807, the numerical value information X stored in the effect content determination area is read, and the numerical value information on the importance of the corresponding effect corresponding to the determination of the current effect content is added to the numerical information X. To do. Further, the numerical value information of the importance is added to “49” which is a fixed median value in all types of corresponding effects.

  In step S808, the numerical value information obtained by accumulating the numerical value information of importance with respect to the numerical information X is added to the cumulative point counter 94c of the RWM 94, and the numerical value information of importance with respect to the fixed median value. Is added to the cumulative median counter 94d of the RWM 94.

  Thereafter, in step S809, a use area shift process is executed, and in step S810, a storage process in the latest area is executed. Specifically, in this embodiment, as shown in the explanatory diagram of FIG. 27, the RWM 94 of the sound emission control device 90 includes the latest area separately from the cumulative point counter 94c and the cumulative median counter 94d. The area 194a, the previous area 194b, and the previous area 194c are set. In each of these areas 194a to 194c, an accumulated point value area capable of storing an accumulated point value and an accumulated median area capable of storing an accumulated median value are set.

  In the use area shift processing in step S809, the information stored in each of the areas 194a to 194c is shifted to the old area. Specifically, the information stored in the previous area 194b is written to the area 194c the previous time, and the information stored in the latest area 194a is written to the previous area 194b. In the storage process in the latest area in step S810, the numerical information currently stored in the accumulated point counter 94c and the accumulated median counter 94d is written in the latest area 194a. As a result, with respect to the accumulated point value and the accumulated median value, it is possible to use the accumulated point value and the accumulated median value after determining the effect content for the effect of the previous three times in the order of determining the effect content. In the correction process in step S804, the accumulated point value and the accumulated median value stored in the area 194c the previous time in the process corresponding to step S606 in the correction process (FIG. 19) in the first embodiment are used. read out.

  Even in the present embodiment, as in the first embodiment, the contents of the effect are corrected, and further, the numerical value information of importance is accumulated when adding to the accumulated point value and the accumulated total value. This addition is performed. Then, in the corresponding effect set in the order after the corresponding effect having a high importance in the determination order of the effect contents, the influence of the numerical information X for determining the effect content in the corresponding effect having a high importance becomes large. In this case, in the configuration in which the execution order of the various corresponding effects in the game times matches the order in which the contents of the various corresponding effects are determined, the content of the corresponding effects to be executed next to the corresponding effect with the highest importance. When the cumulative point value and cumulative median calculated after the determination of the content of the corresponding production with high importance is used, the corresponding production to be executed next to the corresponding production with high importance is used. A certain rule arises in relation to the production contents of the corresponding production having a high degree of importance, and it becomes difficult for the player to recognize the production contents as individual corresponding productions.

  On the other hand, as described above, by using the accumulated point value and the accumulated median value stored in the area 194c before the last time in the correction process in step S804, the influence of the corresponding effect with high importance is as follows. In the execution order of the corresponding effects, the corresponding effects existing immediately after the corresponding effects having a high degree of importance are not reached. Then, even if a certain rule occurs as described above in relation to the order of determining the contents of the production, continuity is lost in relation to the actual execution order of the various corresponding effects, so the player can It becomes easy to recognize.

  Returning to the description of the game times control process (FIG. 26), after executing the process of step S810, the process proceeds to step S811, where the numerical information of the current effect execution counter 94a matches the effect number information N read in step S801. It is determined whether or not. If not, in step S812, the numerical value information of the effect execution counter 94a is incremented by 1, and then the process returns to step S803. On the other hand, if they match, the game times control process ends after executing the processes of steps S813 to S815. The processing contents of steps S813 to S815 are the same as the processing contents of steps S411 to S413 of the game times control process (FIG. 17) in the first embodiment.

<Fourth Embodiment>
In the present embodiment, the processing configuration of the game times control process is different from that of the first embodiment. Hereinafter, the different configuration will be described. In the following description, the description of the same configuration as that of the first embodiment is basically omitted.

  FIG. 28 is a flowchart showing a game times control process in the present embodiment.

  First, in step S901, initial setting processing is executed. In the initial setting process, processes similar to steps S401 to S403 of the game times control process (FIG. 17) in the first embodiment are executed.

  In subsequent step S902, the numerical value information of the effect execution counter 94a is set to “1” which is a common initial value among the lottery result patterns, and in step S903, the numerical information X is acquired from the effect lottery counter 94b. Run.

  In subsequent step S904, it is determined whether or not the current game time is a game time that is a result of losing and no reach display is generated, or a game time that is a result of losing and a reach display is generated. If an affirmative determination is made in step S904, the correction process is executed in step S905, and then the processes in steps S906 to S912 are executed. If the negative determination is made in step S904, the process proceeds to step S905. Steps S906 to S912 are executed without executing the correction processing. In addition, the processing content of step S906-step S912 is the same as the processing content of step S407-step S413 of the game turn control processing (FIG. 17) in the said 1st Embodiment.

  FIG. 29 is a flowchart showing the correction processing in this embodiment.

  First, in steps S1001 to S1005, as in the case of steps S601 to S605 in the correction processing (FIG. 19) in the first embodiment, the cumulative median is intended on the condition that the initial adjustment condition is satisfied. The process to operate automatically.

  In the subsequent step S1006, a process of reading the accumulated point value and the accumulated median value is executed as in step S606 of the correction process (FIG. 19) in the first embodiment, and in step S1007, the first embodiment is performed. Similar to step S607 in the correction processing (FIG. 19), the correction determination calculation processing is executed.

  Thereafter, in step S1008, it is determined whether or not the value calculated by the calculation process in step S1007 is “100 + Y” or more. If the calculated value is equal to or greater than “100 + Y”, in step S1009, the numerical value X acquired in step S903 of the game times control process (FIG. 28) is subjected to a downward correction using the formula X / 2. The contents of this process are the same as step S612 of the correction process (FIG. 19) in the first embodiment. In step S1010, the numerical information X after the downward correction is overwritten in the effect content determination area of the RWM 94 in which the numerical information X was stored after the execution of step S903.

  When a negative determination is made in step S1008, or after execution of the processing in step S1010, importance level reflection processing is executed in step S1011 and cumulative point value and cumulative median value update processing is executed in step S1012. Later, the correction process is terminated. The processing contents of step S1011 and step S1012 are the same as the processing contents of step S614 and step S615 of the correction processing (FIG. 19) in the first embodiment.

  As described above, in the present embodiment, in the game times in which the result of the success / failure determination process in the MPU 62 of the main control device 60 is the jackpot result, the correction process is not executed, and the game in which the result of the corresponding determination process is an outlier result. Correction processing is executed in the first time. Thereby, it is possible to prevent the occurrence of an event in which the content of the performance with high expectation of the jackpot result continues in the various corresponding effects in the game times that are the result of losing. In addition, because the game content that is the jackpot result is not corrected, the game content that was expected to be the jackpot result was supposed to be executed in the game time that was the jackpot result, There will be no event that the expectation of the jackpot result is corrected to the production content.

<Fifth Embodiment>
In the present embodiment, the numerical information is corrected in the success / failure determination process executed in step S303 of the special figure change start process (FIG. 8) in the MPU 62 of the main controller 60. The different configuration will be described below. In the following description, the description of the same configuration as that of the first embodiment is basically omitted.

  FIG. 30 is a flowchart showing the success / failure determination processing in the present embodiment.

  First, in step S1101, numerical information M corresponding to the big hit random number counter C1 is acquired from the execution area AE of the hold storage area 64a. In a succeeding step S1102, it is determined whether or not the numerical value information of the detachment result counter provided in the RWM 64 of the main controller 60 is K (for example, 500) or more. If an affirmative determination is made in step S1102, the increase correction is executed on the numerical information M acquired in step S1101 in step S1103. Specifically, the correction is performed using the equation M = M / 2 + 150. In the subsequent step S1104, the process of converting the numerical information M after correction into an integer is executed. That is, when correction is performed using the above mathematical formula, the corrected numerical information M can be a decimal number such as “195.5” or “278.5”, but an integer can be obtained by rounding off the fractional part in the integerization process. To be treated as Thereby, the numerical information M after correction becomes an integer of 150 or more. In addition, you may be made to handle as an integer by rounding up below a decimal point in the integerization process.

  Here, in the present embodiment, the numerical range of the jackpot random number counter C1 is 0 to 299. In the validity determination table set in the ROM 63 of the main controller 60, the numerical information of the jackpot result is one piece of 270. Only set. In this case, by correcting the numerical information M in step S1103 and step S1104, the numerical information M handled in the determination of validity is in a numerical range of 150 or more. That is, the numerical range to be referred to in the success / failure determination table is narrowed to 150 or more. The numerical information corresponding to the jackpot result is included in the numerical range after the narrowing down. Therefore, by performing the above correction, it is possible to increase the probability of a jackpot result while using the same success / failure determination table.

  If a negative determination is made in step S1102, or after step S1104, the success / failure determination table is read from the ROM 63 in step S1105. In the subsequent step S1106, the numerical information M acquired in step S1101 when the correction is not performed, and the numerical information M after the processing of steps S1103 and S1104 when the correction is performed. By referring to the success / failure determination table, it is determined whether or not the numerical information corresponds to the jackpot result. If the result corresponds to the jackpot result, in step S1107, the jackpot result flag provided in the RWM 64 of the main controller 60 is set to “1”, and in step S1108, the miss result counter is set. After the numerical information is cleared to “0”, the authenticity determination process is terminated. On the other hand, if it does not correspond to the jackpot result, in step S1109, 1 is added to the numerical value information of the off result counter, and then the true / false determination process is terminated.

  As described above, according to the configuration of the present embodiment, the numerical range of the numerical information used in the determination of success / failure within the range including the numerical information corresponding to the jackpot result is the configuration that is widened or narrowed. It is possible to vary the probability of a jackpot result while using the success / failure determination table. As a result, it is possible to diversify the probability of a big hit result while reducing the storage capacity.

  Note that the present invention is not limited to the configuration for distinguishing whether or not to perform correction according to the numerical information of the outlier result counter as described above. For example, there is a probability that the jackpot result will be triggered by the jackpot result. In a fluctuating configuration, a low probability mode and a high probability mode are set, and the above correction is not performed in the low probability mode, but the above correction is performed in the high probability mode.

  Moreover, the structure which fluctuates the probability of a jackpot result as described above is not limited to two stages, and may be three stages, four stages, or five stages or more. For example, in the case of three stages, the correction of M = M / 2 + 150 is performed as the first correction, the correction of M = M / 3 + 200 is performed as the second correction, and the jackpot result is supported. Regardless of which correction is performed, such as “250”, the numerical value is a numerical value included in the corrected numerical range. The execution conditions for the first correction and the execution conditions for the second correction are arbitrary. For example, the numerical value information of the outlier result counter is equal to or greater than the first numerical value K1 (for example, 500). In such a case, the first correction may be performed, and the second correction may be performed when the numerical value information of the outlier result counter is equal to or greater than a second numerical value K2 (for example, 1000) that is larger than K1. In a configuration where the probability of a jackpot result fluctuates when the jackpot result is triggered, a low probability mode, a medium probability mode, and a high probability mode are set, and the above correction is performed in the low probability mode. Instead, the first correction may be performed in the medium probability mode, and the second correction may be performed in the high probability mode.

  Moreover, it is good also as a structure which reduces the probability which becomes a jackpot result by performing downward correction | amendment, when the jackpot result is continuous. Specifically, the number range of the jackpot random number counter C1 includes a larger number of numerical information corresponding to the jackpot result than the number range of less than the center value in the number range of the jackpot random number counter C1. In the above-described configuration, correction is performed so that numerical information acquired from the jackpot random number counter C1 is narrowed down to a numerical range equal to or greater than the median value, and numerical values acquired from the jackpot random number counter C1 are used in the downward correction. The correction is performed so that the information is narrowed down to a numerical range less than the median value.

  Further, in the game determination table, if the numerical information of the jackpot random number counter C1 is greater than or equal to a predetermined value, it corresponds to the jackpot result, and if it is less than the predetermined value, it corresponds to the missed result, A configuration in which the numerical information subject to the determination of success / failure is aggregated, and when the aggregated result is included in the numerical range for upward correction, the upward correction is performed, and when it is included in the numerical range for downward correction, the downward correction is performed. It is good.

  Further, in addition to or instead of the above-described correction in the determination process, the above-described correction may be performed in the distribution determination process. Specifically, in the numerical value range that can be taken by the jackpot type counter C2, either the larger value side or the smaller value side is more likely to select a jackpot result that is more advantageous to the player, and the game times of the losing results are continuous. When the number of hits exceeds the reference number, a jackpot result is obtained. By performing the upward correction as in the above embodiment on the obtained numerical information of the jackpot random number counter C2, a jackpot result advantageous to the player is obtained. A configuration that makes it easy to select is conceivable.

<Other embodiments>
In addition, it is not limited to the description content of each embodiment mentioned above, A various deformation | transformation improvement is possible within the range which does not deviate from the meaning of this invention. For example, you may change as follows. Incidentally, the configurations of the following different forms may be applied individually or in combination to the configurations of the above embodiments.

  (1) In each of the above-described embodiments, three types of ascending correction, no correction, and descending correction are set as the pattern for correcting the production content. However, as shown in FIG. Also, a configuration in which three types of intermediate correction and descent correction are set may be employed.

  Specifically, when the calculated value calculated by the correction determination calculation process (step S607) in the correction process (FIG. 19) of the first embodiment is less than “100-Y”, When the numerical information X acquired from the lottery counter 94b is corrected by the formula X = X / 3 + 66, and the calculated value is not less than “100−Y” and less than “100 + Y”, the effect lottery counter 94b If the calculated value is “100 + Y” or more, the numerical information X acquired from the production lottery counter 94b is X = X / 3. The descent correction is performed by the following formula. In this case, when the numerical value range from 0 to 99 in the effect content determination table is divided into approximately three equal parts, when the upward correction is performed, the effect content is determined within the numerical value range on the larger numerical value side, and the intermediate correction is performed. Is performed within the numerical range on the intermediate numerical value side, and the content of the rendering is determined within the numerical range on the smaller numerical value side when the downward correction is performed.

  In addition, when performing correction using the accumulated point value and the accumulated median as in the above-described embodiments, the deviation amount of the accumulated point value with respect to the accumulated median is larger for the corresponding effect on the rear side of the effect content determination order. It converges to the side where the amount of deviation becomes smaller. Therefore, intermediate correction is more likely to be performed in the corresponding production in the order in which the content of the production is determined.

  (2) As shown in FIG. 31 (b), there are five types of patterns for correcting the content of the effect, namely, large ascent correction, small ascent correction, no correction, small ascent correction, and large ascent correction. Good.

  Specifically, when the calculated value calculated by the correction determination calculation process (step S607) in the correction process (FIG. 19) of the first embodiment is less than “100-Y1”, When the numerical information X acquired from the lottery counter 94b is subjected to a large increase correction by the equation X = X / 4 + 75, and the calculated value is not less than “100−Y1” and less than “100−Y2” (Y1 and Y2 Are both integers, and for Y2 <Y1), the numerical information X acquired from the production lottery counter 94b is corrected for a small increase by the formula X = X / 4 + 50, and the calculated value is equal to or greater than “100−Y2”. If it is less than “100 + Y2”, the calculated value is “100 + Y2” or more and “10 + 10” without correcting the numerical information X acquired from the effect lottery counter 94b. If it is less than “+ Y1”, the numerical information X acquired from the effect lottery counter 94b is corrected by a small descent according to the formula X = X / 4 + 25, and if the calculated value is “100 + Y1” or more, the effect lottery The numerical information X acquired from the counter 94b is subjected to large descent correction by the formula X = X / 4. In this case, when the numerical value range from 0 to 99 in the effect content determination table is divided into four equal parts, when the large increase correction is performed, the effect content is determined within the numerical value range on the largest numerical value side. When the upward correction is performed, the content of the effect is determined within the next larger numerical value range, and when the small downward correction is performed, the content of the effect is determined within the next larger numerical value range. When the large descent correction is performed, the content of the effect is determined within the numerical value range on the smallest numerical value side.

  In addition, when performing correction using the accumulated point value and the accumulated median as in the above-described embodiments, the deviation amount of the accumulated point value with respect to the accumulated median is larger for the corresponding effect on the rear side of the effect content determination order. It converges to the side where the amount of deviation becomes smaller. Therefore, the smaller the rise correction and the small drop correction are more likely to be performed than the large rise correction and the large drop correction as the corresponding production is determined in the order in which the content is determined.

  (3) In the fourth embodiment, the contents of the effects of the various corresponding effects are corrected only in the game times of the losing results, and the correction is a downward correction. The correction may be performed only in the game times, and the correction may be only the upward correction or both the upward correction and the downward correction. In this case, the irregularity of the production contents of the various corresponding effects executed in the game times of the losing results is reduced.

  (4) In each of the above embodiments, a configuration in which the contents of various corresponding effects are corrected in both the jackpot result game times and the outlier game times, or the various contents effects effects contents only in the game results of a miss result. However, instead of this, it may be configured to correct the contents of effects of various corresponding effects only in the game round of the jackpot result. In this case, by adopting a configuration in which only the upward correction is performed without performing the downward correction as the correction, the execution frequency of the production contents with high expectation for the occurrence of the big hit result is increased in the big hit result game times. It is done. The correction is not limited to this, and the correction may be a configuration in which only the downward correction is performed without performing the upward correction as the correction, or a configuration in which both the upward correction and the downward correction are performed.

  (5) As the correction of the contents of the various corresponding effects, only the upward correction is performed without performing the downward correction in the game round of the jackpot result, and only the downward correction is performed without performing the upward correction in the game round of the losing result. It is good also as a structure performed. In this case, in the game round of the jackpot result, since the execution frequency of the production content having high expectation for the occurrence of the jackpot result is increased, the expectation for the occurrence of the jackpot result can be suitably increased and the symbol display device 31 Therefore, it is possible to suitably increase the degree of attention to the display effect executed in step S2. In addition, in the game times of out-of-game results, there is no correction to the production content side that has a high expectation that a jackpot result will occur, while there is a production content that has a high expectation for the occurrence of a jackpot result Since it is possible to suppress the continuation, it is possible to suppress the occurrence of an event that excessively increases the player's expectation that a jackpot result will be generated in a game result of a missed result.

  (6) As the correction of the production contents of the various corresponding effects, only the downward correction is performed without performing the upward correction in the game round of the jackpot result, and only the upward correction is performed without performing the downward correction in the game round of the losing result. It is good also as a structure performed.

  (7) The presence / absence of correction and the content of correction are determined using the result of aggregation of numerical information (specifically, the ratio between the accumulated point value and the accumulated median value) corresponding to the determined contents of the various corresponding effects. The range of the numerical value range referred to in this case may be different between the upward correction and the downward correction. For example, in the game round of the jackpot result, the numerical value range that is a criterion for whether or not to perform the downward correction may be narrower than the numerical value range that is a criterion for whether or not to perform the upward correction. In this case, it is possible to reduce the frequency of execution of the downward correction while adopting a configuration in which both the upward correction and the downward correction occur in the game round of the big hit result. In addition, for example, in the game times of outliers, the numerical value range that serves as a reference for whether or not to perform upward correction may be configured to be narrower than the numerical value range that serves as a reference for whether or not to perform downward correction. . In this case, it is possible to reduce the execution frequency of the upward correction while adopting a configuration in which both the upward correction and the downward correction occur in the game times of the outliers.

  (8) The presence / absence of correction and the content of the correction are determined using the total result of the numerical information corresponding to the determined content of the various corresponding effects (specifically, the ratio between the accumulated point value and the accumulated median). The range of the numerical value range referred to in this case may be different between the jackpot result game times and the outlier result game times. For example, the range of the numerical range used as a criterion for whether or not to perform the correction may be configured so that the game times of the outlier result are wider than the game times of the jackpot result, and the game time of the jackpot result is the outlier result It is good also as a structure wider than game times. In this case, both the increase correction and the decrease correction are possible in both the jackpot result game times and the out-of-game result times, and a numerical value that serves as a reference for whether or not the increase correction is executed in the jackpot result game times. As in the first embodiment, the range and the numerical range serving as a reference for determining whether or not to perform the downward correction are symmetric with respect to the median value of the numerical range that can be obtained as a result of aggregation, and the outlier result As in the first embodiment, the total result can be a numerical range that serves as a reference for whether or not to perform upward correction and a numerical range that serves as a reference for whether or not to perform downward correction in game times. By symmetric with respect to the median of the numerical range, while maintaining the relationship between the production contents of various corresponding effects and the expectation for the occurrence of the jackpot result, the game times of the outlier result and the game times of the jackpot result Frequent correction It is possible to vary the.

  (9) In the first embodiment and the like, as the initial adjustment in the correction process (FIG. 19), when the initial adjustment condition is satisfied, the cumulative median value is generated and the jackpot result is generated in all the various corresponding effects. However, in addition to or instead of this, as an initial adjustment, expectation of occurrence of jackpot results for all the corresponding effects It is good also as a structure which sets the numerical information that the production content (including non-execution) with the lowest degree is selected. Specifically, a configuration in which numerical information such as “10000” is set only for the accumulated point value as an initial value is conceivable. For example, when a lottery result pattern having a high expectation for the occurrence of a jackpot result in the MPU 62 of the main control device 60, such as execution of super reach display, is selected in the game times of outlier results, a plurality of outlier games In the case where the game is selected continuously, or when the game is selected as a result of a plurality of outliers within the range of the standard number of games, the initial adjustment is performed by the MPU 92 of the sound emission control device 90. By executing the game, it is possible to suppress the player from expecting excessive occurrence of the jackpot result when the super reach display is executed in the game times of the losing result.

  (10) In order to determine whether or not to correct the contents of effects of various corresponding effects, and the contents of the correction, every time the contents of effects of various corresponding effects are determined, the accumulated point value and the cumulative median value Each of them is configured to be aggregated, but this may be changed as follows.

  (10-1) Each time the contents of effects of various corresponding effects are determined, the numerical information X used for the determination (the numerical information acquired from the effect lottery counter 94b or the numerical information after correcting the acquired numerical information) ) And the median of the numerical range of the effect lottery counter 94b, and the difference may be totaled. In this case, for example, when the numerical information X is larger than the median value, it is treated as a positive numerical value, and when the numerical information X is smaller than the median value, it is treated as a negative numerical value. If “Y” (Y is a natural number) or more, the downward correction may be performed, and if the difference sum is less than “−Y” in a negative numerical value, the upward correction may be performed.

  (10-2) Accumulated point values are counted each time the contents of various corresponding effects are determined, the cumulative median value is not counted, and the accumulated point value is divided by the number of effects targeted for aggregation. The result of the correction may be used to determine the presence / absence of correction and the content of correction. In this case, for example, in a case where the importance is not reflected when the accumulated point value is totaled, the result of the division can be a decimal number, but is included in the numerical range of the effect lottery counter 94b. Accordingly, by further dividing the result obtained by the division by the median of the numerical range of the effect lottery counter 94b, it is possible to derive a numerical value corresponding to the change from the median. It is possible to determine the presence / absence of correction and the content of correction by the same method as in the above embodiments. In addition, for example, in the configuration that reflects the importance, the determination order of the production contents is determined at the design stage of the pachinko machine 10, and therefore, the criterion for determining the presence / absence of the correction and the content of the correction is the target of the accumulation point value aggregation. It may be set according to the number of productions.

  (11) In each of the above embodiments, since the number of numerical values included in the numerical range of the effect lottery counter 94b is an even number, the median value is an integer. For example, the numerical value included in the numerical range of the effect lottery counter 94b If the number of is odd, the median is a decimal. In this case, the numerical value accumulated as the cumulative median value may be an integer obtained by rounding up the decimal point of the median value that is the decimal, and rounded off the decimal value of the median value that is the decimal. It is good also as the numerical value which carried out, and it is good also as the median which became the said decimal.

  (12) In each of the above embodiments, when the numerical value information X acquired from the effect lottery counter 94b is corrected to increase or decrease to become a decimal, it is converted to an integer by rounding off the decimal part. , It may be converted to an integer by rounding up after the decimal point. In this case, there is a possibility that the numerical information X after being converted to an integer may exceed the maximum value of the production lottery counter 94b. However, a numerical value exceeding the maximum value is handled as the maximum value, so that a common value can be obtained. It is possible to determine the content of the effect using the effect content determination table.

  (13) Even if the numerical information X acquired from the effect lottery counter 94b is corrected to increase or decrease to become a decimal, the numerical information X of the decimal may be used as it is. In this case, in the effect content determination table, only the numerical value that is the boundary of the numerical range of each effect content is set, and by determining the magnitude relationship with that value, it is determined which content of the effect corresponds to With this configuration, it is possible to use a common effect content determination table.

  (14) In each of the above embodiments, the numerical information X acquired from the effect lottery counter 94b is applied to a predetermined mathematical formula to perform the upward correction or downward correction. However, this may be changed.

  (14-1) When it is decided not to correct the numerical information X itself but to perform the upward correction, the production content having the highest expectation for occurrence of the jackpot result is uniquely selected, and the downward correction is performed. When it is determined to be executed, it may be configured such that the production content (including non-execution) having the lowest expectation for occurrence of the jackpot result is uniquely selected. Alternatively, if it is determined that the upward correction is to be executed, the degree of expectation for the occurrence of the jackpot result is one level for the effect content determined from the numerical information X acquired from the effect lottery counter 94b. When it is determined that a high effect content is selected and the downward correction is to be executed, the degree of expectation for the occurrence of the jackpot result is one level for the effect content determined from the numerical information X acquired from the effect lottery counter 94b. It is good also as a structure from which low production content is selected.

  (14-2) Rather than correcting the numerical information X itself, the effect content determination table for upward correction and the effect content determination table for downward correction are referred to as the effect content determination table for no correction. It is good also as a structure which performs an upward correction and a downward correction by preparing separately.

  (14-3) The numerical information X itself is not corrected, but an effect lottery counter for upward correction and an effect lottery counter for downward correction are prepared separately from the effect lottery counter 94b for no correction. Thus, it may be configured to perform ascending correction and descending correction.

  (15) In the first to fourth embodiments, the contents of the effects of various corresponding effects are corrected with reference to the determined contents of the corresponding effects included in the range of one game round. However, instead of this, the correction may be performed across a plurality of game times. In addition, for example, with respect to the content of the same type of corresponding effect among the various types of corresponding effects, an increase correction or a decrease correction may be performed in accordance with the content of the same type of corresponding effect executed in different game times. . In this case, the occurrence of an event in which the same effect content continues for a plurality of game times for the same type of corresponding effect is suppressed, and the opportunity for the player to visually recognize each effect content for the same type of corresponding effect is increased. It is done.

  (16) The upward correction and the downward correction may be generated only in the game times where the reach display is performed, or may be configured only in the game times where the specific reach display such as the super reach display is performed among the reach displays. Good.

  Moreover, it is good also as a structure by which upward correction or downward correction is performed about whether to perform reach display itself, or whether to perform super reach display itself. In this case, the correction may be performed by the MPU 62 of the main control device 60, and the display duration time of the game times may be changed according to the content of the correction. For example, the display duration corresponding to the occurrence of reach display using numerical information such as the jackpot random number counter C1, the jackpot type counter C2, the reach random number counter C3, and the variation type counter CS, or the display corresponding to the occurrence of super reach display Even if the duration time is selected, if it is determined that the reach display or the super reach display is not performed due to the downward correction, a configuration in which the previously selected display duration time is changed to a shorter one can be considered. . Even if the display continuation time corresponding to the non-occurrence of reach display or the display continuation time corresponding to the non-occurrence of super reach display is selected by using numerical information such as the above counter, the reach correction corrects these reach. When it is determined to perform display or super reach display, a configuration in which the previously selected display duration time is changed to a longer one can be considered.

  (17) In the configuration in which various corresponding effects indicating the degree of expectation that the game state set after the end of the opening / closing execution mode becomes an advantageous game state for the player are executed during the opening / closing execution mode, You may apply the structure of at least one of the raise correction and the descent correction like the said 1st-4th embodiment about the production content of a corresponding production. Even in this case, it is preferable that the correction is performed within the range of one opening / closing execution mode.

  (18) The types and number of various corresponding effects to be corrected such as ascending correction and descending correction are not limited to those of the above-described embodiments, and are arbitrary.

  (19) The types of jackpot results may be set as follows. The jackpot result includes (a) a mode of opening / closing control of the variable winning device 22 in the opening / closing execution mode, (b) a lottery mode for winning / losing lottery after the opening / closing execution mode ends, and (c) a lower operation port 24 after the opening / closing execution mode ends. A plurality of jackpot results are set by providing a difference in the three conditions of the support mode in the electric accessory 24a.

  As an aspect of the opening / closing control of the variable winning device 22 in the opening / closing execution mode, the variable winning device 22 can be controlled so that the frequency of occurrence of winnings in the variable winning device 22 is relatively high from the start to the end of the opening / closing execution mode. A frequency winning mode and a low frequency winning mode are set.

  Specifically, in the high-frequency winning mode, the round game is played 15 times, and in the low-frequency winning mode, the round game for the low-frequency winning is played twice as many times as in the high-frequency winning mode. Further, a plurality of types of opening modes of the variable winning device 22 are set with different upper limit durations from when the variable winning device 22 is opened until it is closed. Specifically, a long-time mode set to 29 sec, which is a long upper limit duration, and a short-time mode set to 0.8 sec, which is a short time shorter than the above long time, are set. Has been. In the present pachinko machine 10, in a situation where the launch handle 41 is operated by the player, the game ball launching mechanism 81 is driven and controlled so that one game ball is launched toward the game area in 0.6 sec. . In the round game, the upper limit number of end conditions is set to nine. Then, in the long-time mode among the above-described open modes, the upper limit duration is set longer than the product of the game ball firing cycle and the upper limit number of one round game. On the other hand, in the short-time mode, the upper limit duration time is shorter than the product of the launch period of the game balls and the upper limit number of one round game, more specifically, the upper limit duration that is about the same as or slightly longer than the launch period of the game balls. Is set. Therefore, when the variable winning device 22 is released once in a long time mode, it is expected that the variable winning device 22 will receive the maximum number of winnings in one round game. When the variable winning device 22 is released once in the aspect, it is expected that no winning is made to the variable winning device 22 or that there is about one even if a winning occurs. In the high-frequency winning mode, the variable winning device 22 is released once in a long-time manner in each round game. On the other hand, in the low frequency winning mode, the variable winning device 22 is opened once in a short time mode in each round game. The number of opening / closing of the variable winning device 22 in the high frequency winning mode and the low frequency winning mode, the number of round games, the upper limit duration for one opening, and the upper limit number in one round game are those in the high frequency winning mode. However, the value is not limited to the above value as long as the frequency of occurrence of winning in the variable winning device 22 is higher than the low-frequency winning mode until the opening / closing execution mode starts and ends. It is.

  Specifically, the types of jackpot results are set to a 15R low likelihood big hit result, an unspecified 2R high likelihood big hit result, an explicit 2R high likelihood big hit result, and a 15R high likelihood big hit result.

  The 15R low probability big hit result is a big hit result in which the open / close execution mode becomes the high-frequency winning mode, and after the open / close execution mode ends, the winning lottery mode becomes the low probability mode and the support mode becomes the high frequency support mode. . However, the high-frequency support mode shifts to the low-frequency support mode when the number of games reaches the end reference number (specifically, 100 times) after the shift.

  As for the implicit 2R high probability winning result, the opening / closing execution mode becomes the low-frequency winning mode, and after the opening / closing execution mode is finished, the success / failure lottery mode becomes the high probability mode and the support mode is maintained in the previous mode. It is a jackpot result.

  The explicit 2R high-precision big hit result is a big win result that the open / close execution mode becomes the low-frequency winning mode, and after the open / close execution mode ends, the winning lottery mode becomes the high probability mode and the support mode becomes the high-frequency support mode. is there. The high-frequency support mode continues until the lottery result in the winning or failing lottery becomes a big hit state win and shifts to the big hit state by that.

  The 15R high-accuracy big hit result is a big hit result in which the open / close execution mode becomes the high-frequency winning mode, and after the open / close execution mode ends, the success / failure lottery mode becomes the high probability mode and the support mode becomes the high-frequency support mode. . The high-frequency support mode continues until the lottery result in the winning or failing lottery becomes a big hit state win and shifts to the big hit state by that.

  In addition, as a kind of losing result in the winning / losing lottery, a special losing result that shifts to the opening / closing execution mode of the low-frequency winning mode and that does not cause the shifting of the winning / losing lottery mode and the support mode may be included. In the configuration in which both the above-described non-explicit 2R high-accuracy big hit result and the special outlier result are set, the switching execution mode shifts to the low-frequency winning mode, and the support mode is changed to the previous mode. It is common to be maintained, but the transition mode of the winning / failing lottery mode is different, for example, in the case of one of the non-explicit 2R high probability winning results or special outage results in the normal gaming state , It is possible to make the player predict which of the results it actually corresponds to.

  In the above configuration, for example, in the case of the unspecified 2R high-precision jackpot result and the explicit 2R high-precision jackpot result, the combination of the same symbols may not be stopped and displayed on the active line when the symbol display on the symbol display device 31 is ended. Moreover, it is good also as a structure by which correction | amendment of the production content of various corresponding | compatible effects is not performed in these non-explicit 2R high probability hit results and explicit 2R high probability hit results.

  (20) In the first to fourth embodiments described above, in the various corresponding effects, an effect content having a higher expectation level of the jackpot result is selected on the value side where the numerical value information of the effect lottery counter 94b is larger. The smaller value side may be configured such that the production content with a higher expectation level of the jackpot result is selected. In this case, as the ratio between the cumulative point value and the cumulative median value is larger, the upward correction is performed. When the upward correction is performed, the numerical information acquired from the effect lottery counter 94b is the smaller value side. On the other hand, as the ratio between the cumulative point value and the cumulative median value is smaller, the downward correction is performed, and when the downward correction is performed, the numerical information acquired from the effect lottery counter 94b is large.
