Description

  The present invention is capable of transitioning to a gaming state that is advantageous for the occurrence of a special game after the completion of the gaming machine, particularly a special game capable of acquiring a large number of prize balls, and that ends the gaming state when a big hit occurs during the gaming state. Related to the machine.

  Conventionally, a pachinko machine that is a gaming machine, when a game ball enters the start opening, a random number value is extracted due to this, and whether or not a big hit is made based on the random number value is determined. A symbol is determined, and after the special symbol is variably displayed on the symbol display device, the symbol is determined and displayed to notify the result of the determination. If the result of the determination is a big hit, the mainstream is a configuration that shifts to a special game in which a large number of winning balls can be obtained by opening and closing a large winning opening over a plurality of rounds.

Also, in this type of pachinko machine, after the special game is over, until the number of times the special symbol fluctuates (the number of times of determination of success / failure) reaches a predetermined number of times, for example, the time of change of the symbol is reduced (shorter), There is a game that can be shifted to a game state advantageous for the occurrence of a special game, such as a high probability (probability change) of a big hit (for example, see Patent Document 1).
According to this, since the advantageous gaming state is finite, the player eagerly enters the game aiming to win a big hit during the advantageous gaming state. On the other hand, if a big hit is made during an advantageous gaming state, the remaining number of advantageous gaming states is cleared, which may cause dissatisfaction for some players.

On the other hand, another conventional gaming machine has been proposed in which the remaining number of times is not cleared but is added to the number of times that the next advantageous gaming state is continued (see, for example, Patent Document 2).
However, in this configuration, there is a possibility that the number of advantageous game state continuations may increase enormously depending on the progress of the game, and there is a problem that it may be difficult to carry out because there is a risk of gambling of the player.

Next, the operation of the pachinko machine 1 will be described.
The pachinko machine 1 performs a lottery determination for the usual figure due to the entry to the operation gate 22 and starts the fluctuation display of the usual figure display device 29. If the lottery result is a win, the display device 29 confirms the hit of the usual figure and opens the utility. This makes it possible to win a prize at the second special figure starting port 24.
When there is a winning at the first or second special figure starting port 23, 24, a random value is extracted due to this, and the first or second special figure is determined based on the random number. The symbol variation of the first or second special symbol display devices 27 and 28 and the effect symbol display device 21 is started. If the lottery result is a jackpot, the jackpot symbol (special game) with the opening of the jackpot 25 is executed by confirming and displaying the jackpot symbol on each display device 27, 28, 21.

In addition, after the jackpot game ends, according to the special figure (big jackpot symbol) that became a big hit, the probability variation game state in which the winning probability of the special figure is changed to a high probability, the variation time of the normal figure is shortened and the second special figure When the opening time of the start port 24 is extended, it is possible to shift to a gaming state that is advantageous to the transition of the big hit game such as a short gaming state.
As shown in FIG. 5, as the advantageous gaming state, there are provided a first advantageous gaming state in which both the probability variation state and the short time state are given, and a second advantageous gaming state in which only the short time is given.
In the first advantageous game state, after the big hit game is finished, the probability change and the short time are given until the number of fluctuations of the special figure reaches 100 without becoming the next big hit.
In the second advantageous game state, after the big hit game is over, only the short time is given until the number of fluctuations of the special figure reaches 100 without becoming the next big hit.

Further, when the big hit occurs in the advantageous gaming state, the first or second effective gaming state is canceled according to this pachinko machine, and the player is determined according to the remaining number of times that the advantageous gaming state can be continued at this time. Let's give a point value. And according to this point numerical value, it is the structure which gives the privilege (privilege regarding production), such as performing the special production which consists of an image and a sound which cannot be seen in normal games.
Hereinafter, details of the operation will be described based on a subroutine (program) executed by the main control device 40 and a subroutine (program) executed by the sub integrated control device 42 which are deeply related to the present invention described in the claims. .

  FIG. 6 shows a flowchart of a “main routine” executed by the main controller 40. The “main routine” is composed of this process (S100 to S110, S115) and the remaining process (S111), and has a cycle of 2 ms or 4 ms. It is started due to the interrupt signal, and it is first determined whether or not it is a normal interrupt (S100). This determination is made based on whether or not a specific numerical value is written at a specific address in the RAM. If the determination is negative (S100: no), the initial setting (S115) is executed. The numerical value for determining whether or not it is a normal interrupt is written in the RAM as part of this initial setting.

  If it is a normal interrupt (S100: yes), an initial value random number update process (S101), a big hit determination random number (random number counter) update process (S102), which is a random value for determining whether or not the special figure is true, and a special figure big hit symbol determination Random number (random number counter) update processing (S103), normal hit determination random number (random number counter) update processing (S104), reach determination random number (random number counter) update processing related to special figure reach (S105) , Fluctuation pattern determination random number (random number counter) update process (S106), winning confirmation process (S107), success / failure determination process (S108), each output process (S109), fraud monitoring process (S110) And the initial random number update process (S111) is looped within the remaining time until the next interrupt signal is input.

  Next, a part of subroutines of the winning confirmation process (S107), the success / failure determination process (S108), and each output process (S109) which are deeply related to the present invention will be described.

  7 is a subroutine executed by the main controller 40. In this process, the winnings at the first and second special figure starting ports 23A and 23B are confirmed, and at the time of winning. Performs a pending storage process for the extracted random numbers.

In the “start port winning confirmation process 1”, first, based on the detection signals of the first and second start ports SW503 and 504, it is confirmed whether or not there is a winning in the first and second special figure start ports 23 and 24 (S200). ). If there is a prize (S200: yes), it is confirmed whether the number of reserved memories has already reached the upper limit and is not full (S201). The upper limit number that can be stored is four. If the hold memory is not full (S201: yes), in the extracted random number hold storage process of S202, a plurality of random number values (a jackpot determination random number, a jackpot symbol determination random number, a reach determination random number, a loss determination) The random number for design determination, the random number for variation pattern determination, etc.) are extracted and stored as the reserved storage.
In the subsequent process of S203, the number of lighting of the first or second special figure hold number display devices 271, 281 is increased, and a hold number designation command indicating the current hold memory number is transmitted to the sub integrated control device 42.

FIG. 8 to FIG. 11 show a flowchart of the first or special figure “win / fail judgment process” executed by the main controller 40. In this process, there is no difference between the first special figure and the second special figure except that priority determination of the second special figure is performed, and it is not necessary to distinguish between them. .
As shown in FIG. 8, the “win / fail determination process” confirms whether the special electric accessory for opening the special winning opening 25 is in operation, and if it is not in operation (S300: no), whether the special figure is changing. Confirmation is made and if not changing (S301: no), it is confirmed whether or not a special symbol fixed symbol is displayed (S302). If the special electric accessory is in operation (S300: yes), the process proceeds to “special game processing”.

  If the confirmed symbol is not being displayed in the process of S302 (S302: no), as shown in FIG. 9, it is confirmed whether there is a special figure hold memory (S310). If there is no pending storage (S310: no), the process proceeds to “special game processing”. If there is a reserved memory (S310: yes), the number of memories is subtracted and a shift process of the reserved memory is performed (S311). By the shift process, the oldest reserved memory among the reserved memories of the special figure is the target of the determination of success / failure.

Next, in the process of S312, the probability variation flag is confirmed to confirm whether or not the current gaming state is the probability variation gaming state (if the probability variation flag is “1”, the probability variation is in progress). If the probability change is in progress (S312: yes), it is determined whether or not it is a big hit by comparing the success / failure determination table at the time of the probability change with the big hit determination random number of the pending storage to be the target of the success / failure determination (S313).
If the probability change is not in progress (S312: no), it is determined whether or not it is a big hit by comparing the normal probability (low probability) determination table with the big hit determination random number (S314).

In the subsequent processing of S315, it is confirmed whether or not the determination of whether or not the processing of S313 or S314 is a big hit (whether or not determination means).
If it is a big hit (S315: yes), in the process of S316, the big hit symbol is determined based on the random number for determining the big hit symbol in the reserved storage that is the object of the determination.
In the process of S317, a variation pattern such as a variation time for a special figure jackpot displayed on the effect symbol display device 21 is determined based on the variation random number for determining the variation pattern of the reserved memory that is the object of the determination.

  After determining the variation pattern, a big hit setting process is performed in S318. In this process, a jackpot game release pattern is set based on the determined jackpot symbol. For example, the setting of the opening effect time of the jackpot game executed by the effect symbol display device 21, the setting of the time of the ending effect, the opening mode of the big winning opening 25, the game state after the end of the jackpot game, and the like are made.

  In the process of S315, if it is not a big hit but a loss (S315: no), a change pattern such as a change time for a special figure loss displayed on the effect symbol display device 21 is determined in the process of S319. In the subsequent lose setting process (S320), if the gaming state is a probable change and a short time, the probability change counter and the short time counter for counting these durations are subtracted.

  After each setting process of S318 or S320, in the process of S321, the symbol variation start control of the special symbol display device 28 is performed, the symbol variation start command and the symbol designation command are transmitted to the sub integrated control device 42, and “special game” Move to “Process”. The variation start command and the symbol designation command include a variation pattern of a special figure, a determination result of whether or not the special figure is appropriate.

  When the special symbol is changing in the process of S301 of FIG. 7 (S301: yes), as shown in FIG. 10, when it is confirmed that the symbol change time has passed (S330: yes), the fixed symbol display process In (S331), control is performed to end the special symbol variation display of the special symbol display device 28, and the symbol confirmation is performed so that the sub-integrated control device 42 and the effect symbol control device 43 terminate the pseudo symbol variation display and the effect display. The command is transmitted, and the process proceeds to “special game processing”.

If the confirmed symbol of the special figure is being displayed in the process of S302 of FIG. 7 (S302: yes), the process proceeds to S340 of FIG. 11 and it is confirmed whether or not the confirmed symbol display time has ended. If the fixed symbol display time has not ended (S340: no), the process proceeds to "special game processing".
On the other hand, when it is confirmed that the fixed symbol display time has ended (S340: yes), the fixed symbol display of the special symbol display device 28 is controlled to be terminated by the final symbol display end process (S341), and the sub-integration is performed. A command is transmitted to the control device 42 so as to end the fixed display of the pseudo symbol corresponding to the special figure.

  Subsequently, it is confirmed whether the symbol of the special figure is a combination that is a big hit (S342). If the combination is a big hit (S342: yes), if the probability variation flag is “1” (S343: yes), “0” is set to the probability variation flag (S344). Next, if the hour / hour flag is “1” (S345: yes), “0” is set to the hour / hour flag (S346). By these processes, the gaming state in the big hit game (special game) is reset to the normal state.

In the subsequent process of S347, the operation of the condition device is started. Further, in the process of S348, the operation of the accessory continuous operation device is started. The condition device is a device that is necessary for the operation of the continuous action device in the jackpot game, and the continuous accessory operation device is a device that continuously operates the special electric accessory.
Then, a command is sent to the sub integrated control device 42 to start the big hit effect by the big hit start effect process (S349), and the process proceeds to the “special game process”.

In the process of S342, if the combination is not a big hit (S342: no), it is confirmed whether the probability variation flag is “1” (S350). If the probability variation flag is “1” (S350: yes), the probability variation is described. It is confirmed whether or not the counter (the number of times of change in probability) is “0” (S351). If it is “0” (S351: yes), the probability variation flag is set to “0” (S352).
In the subsequent processing, it is confirmed whether or not the hour / hour flag is “1” (S353). If the hour / hour flag is “1” (S353: yes), it is confirmed whether or not the hour / hour counter (hour / hour number) is “0”. (S354). If it is “0” (S354: yes), the time reduction flag is set to “0” (S355).
In the subsequent state designation command transmission process of S356, a state designation command including information on a probability change flag indicating a gaming state and a time reduction flag is transmitted to the sub integrated control device. Thereafter, the process proceeds to “special game processing”.

  As described above, in the “correction determination process”, a plurality of commands are transmitted from the main control device 40 to the sub integrated control device 42. The symbol variation of the effect symbol display device 21 is started by the variation start command of the process of S321. In this case, the variation pattern designation together with the variation start command, the hold designation of the first or second special figure, and a symbol at a slight interval. Commands such as designation (special drawing designation) and model information designation are transmitted to the sub integrated control device 42.

  During symbol variation, the symbol variation is stopped by the symbol confirmation command (stop designation) in S331 and the special symbol is confirmed and displayed. During the confirmation display, information such as a probability change flag and a time reduction flag indicating the gaming state is sent to the sub integrated control device 42 by the state designation command in S356. It should be noted that the state designation command may be transmitted when the special figure is confirmed and displayed, and in the true / false determination process, the state designation command is substantially transmitted to the sub integrated control device 42 at the end of the confirmation display.

  As shown in FIG. 12, in the “special game process” executed after the “win / fail determination process”, first, in the process of S400, it is confirmed whether or not the accessory continuous operation device is in operation (S400: yes), it is confirmed in step S401 whether the special winning opening 25 is open.

  If the big winning opening 25 is not open in the process of S401 (S401: no), it is confirmed whether it is during the interval (S402), and if not during the interval (S402: no), it is confirmed whether the big hit end effect is being performed (S403). If it is not during the jackpot end effect (S403: no), it is confirmed whether the jackpot start effect time has elapsed (S404), and if the jackpot start effect time has elapsed (S404: yes), the winning opening of S405 is opened. In the process, the special winning opening 25 is opened (special game execution means) and the process returns.

  If the big winning opening is being opened in the process of S401 (S401: yes), as shown in FIG. 13, it is confirmed whether or not the predetermined winning number 25 (9) has been won in the big winning opening 25 (S410). Alternatively, it is confirmed whether or not the opening time of the big prize opening 25 has ended (S411), and if any can be confirmed, the big prize opening 25 is closed (S412), the big hit interval process is executed (S413), and the process returns. . In the big hit interval process, a command is transmitted to the sub integrated control device 42 so as to start the big hit interval effect.

If it is during the interval in the process of S402 in FIG. 12 (S402: yes), it is confirmed whether the big hit interval time has passed in the process of S414 in FIG. 13, and if it has passed (S414: yes), the round of the big hit game Whether or not the number is the final round is confirmed (S415). If the number is the final round (S415: yes), the jackpot end effect processing (S416) is executed. In this processing, the jackpot end command is sent to the sub integrated control device 42. , End the jackpot game and return.
On the other hand, if it is not the final round (S415: no), the winning opening 25 is released (S417) and the process returns.

  If the jackpot end effect is being performed in the process of S403 in FIG. 12 (S403: yes), as shown in FIG. 14, it is confirmed whether the end time of the jackpot end effect time has passed (S420), and if it has passed ( (S420: yes), the process (S421) for stopping the operation of the accessory continuous operation device is executed, and the process (S422) for stopping the operation of the condition device is executed.

In the subsequent processes of S423 to S428, the game content after the big hit game is set with reference to the setting contents set in the “big hit setting process (S318)” of FIG. That is, in S423, it is confirmed whether or not the game is shifted to the probability change game after the big hit game is finished. When the game is shifted (S423: yes), the probability change setting process (advantage state setting means) is performed in the probability change setting process in S424 and the probability change is performed. A process of setting “100” in the counter and setting “1” in the probability variation flag is performed (S425).
Next, in S426, it is confirmed whether or not the game is shifted to the time-saving game after the big hit game is finished, and when the game is shifted (S426: yes), the setting of the time-shifting (advantage state setting means) is performed in the time-saving setting process in S427. After confirming whether the state shifts to the first or second advantageous gaming state, “100” or “70” is set in the time counter. Subsequently, a process of setting “1” to the time reduction flag (S428) is performed.

  Thereafter, a command to end the big hit game is transmitted to the sub integrated control device 42 (S429), and information indicating whether or not to shift to the open extended game state is transmitted to the sub integrated control device 42 and the like as a state designation command (S430). ). Then return.

Next, processing relating to the integration of the point numerical values and the provision of privileges according to the point numerical values performed by the sub integrated control device 42 will be described.
As shown in FIG. 15, “BGM”, “bonus game bonus image”, “Tatsuyoshi mode”, “Boxing mode”, “One announcement”, “Tatsuyoshi reach”, “Boxing reach”, “15R confirmed” "Design", "Probability promotion effect", and "Re-lottery effect" are set.

  "BGM" can change music with 10 points. It is desirable not only to change one song, but to prepare music of about 20 songs so that a favorite piece can be added in units of 10 points. In addition, it is desirable to be able to delete the added music and to return 5 points for the deleted music. In this way, although added once, if you do not like it, you can use the point value for other benefits. In addition, the point numerical value which returns is arbitrary, and the structure which the used part returns as it is may be sufficient. Moreover, even if it deletes, the structure which a point numerical value does not return may be sufficient. This makes it easier to manage point values.

  “Bonus game bonus image” displays a bonus image with 20 points during jackpot game. It is desirable to prepare not only one type of privilege image but also a plurality of types of privilege images so that a favorite image can be added in units of 20 points. Further, it is desirable that the added image can be deleted, and that the deleted image is returned by 10 points.

  “Tatsuyoshi mode” and “Boxing mode” are configurations in which one of the production modes can be selected with 50 points. It is also desirable to be able to set both modes at 50 points. In this case, the effect mode may be switched alternately or randomly.

  “One-shot notification” is a 60 point notification that a big hit has been confirmed during the symbol change of the special figure.

  “Tatsuyoshi Reach” and “Boxing Reach” are 50 points to choose either reach production. It is also desirable to be able to set both reach at 50 points. In this case, the reach effect may be switched alternately or randomly.

  This pachinko machine has multiple types of games with different numbers of rounds, such as “2R”, “9R”, “15R”, etc., and the “15R confirmed symbol” indicates that the game is a 15R game with 150 points . That is, it is shown by making a big hit with “15R confirmed symbol”.

  "Probability promotion effect" and "Re-lottery effect" indicate that the probable change will occur after the big hit game ends at 170 points. In this case, the “probability promotion effect” indicates that the probability changes during the jackpot game, and the “re-lottery effect” once misses the probability change when the special figure fluctuates.

As shown in FIG. 16, the “count setting process” of the sub-integrated control device 42 is a process for calculating the point numerical value, and is different from the counter of the main control device 40 in that the probability change and time reduction function. This is a process of counting the remaining number of times of “1 advantageous gaming state” and “second advantageous gaming state”.
First, it is confirmed whether or not the jackpot end effect has ended (S500). If the effect ends (S500: yes), after the jackpot game ends based on the state designation command in the process of S430 (FIG. 14). Reference is made to the gaming state, that is, whether or not to shift to probability change, or whether or not to shift to a short time (S501). Next, in the process of S502, the probability variation flag is confirmed to determine whether or not to shift to probability variation. If the probability change flag is “1” and the process shifts to the probability change (S502: yes), the time reduction flag is checked in the processing of S503 to determine whether or not the time change is made.

  If the time flag is “1” in the processing of S503 and the time shifts to time with certainty (S503: yes), in the processing of S504, the “probability change counter” and “time reduction counter” of the sub integrated control device 42 are changed. “100 counts” is set as the count value.

If the probability change flag is not “1” in the processing of S502 (S502: no), the time reduction flag is checked to determine whether or not to shift to time reduction (S505). If the time reduction flag is “1” in the processing of S505 and only the time reduction is shifted (S505: yes), in the processing of S506, only the “time reduction counter” of the sub integrated control device 42 has a count value of “70 counts”. "Is set.
After the count value is set in one of the counters in step S504 or S506, the count flag is set to “1” in step S507, and the process returns.

  The “pointing process” of the sub integration device 42 shown in FIG. 17 is a process for calculating a point numerical value for each determination of whether or not a special figure is appropriate. This process first confirms whether or not a variation pattern (S317 in FIG. 9) has been received from the main controller 40 by determining whether or not the special figure is correct. If there is a reception (S550: yes), the count flag (FIG. 16). S507) is confirmed to confirm whether or not the advantageous gaming state has been started (S551).

  If the count flag is “1” in the process of S551 (S551: yes), “1” is subtracted from the count values of the “probability change counter” and the “short time counter” of the sub integrated control device 42 in the process of S552. (Counting means) Next, it is confirmed whether the count value of each counter has reached “0” (S553).

If the count value of each counter is not “0” in the processing of S553 (S553: no), it is confirmed whether or not the determination result of the special figure is a big hit (S554).
If it is a big hit (S554: yes), in the process of S555, a wint is calculated according to the remaining count value of each counter (point means). In this case, “1 point” is set for the remaining count value “1”. For example, if the count value is “15”, “15 points” is set. Further, in the first advantageous state in which the probability variation and the time reduction function, the count values of the “probability variation counter” and the “time reduction counter” are the same value, and the point numerical value is calculated from one of the count values. Further, in this process, the count value of each counter is reset to “0” after the point numerical value is calculated.
The calculation of the point value is not limited to this, and the remaining count value may be multiplied by a constant. For example, the count value may be tripled, and if the count value is “5”, it may be “15 points”.

In the subsequent processing of S556, “1” is set to the point flag indicating that the point numerical value has been assigned (calculated), and the point numerical value is displayed on the effect symbol display device 21 in the processing of S557.
As shown in FIG. 18 (a), the display screen of the effect symbol display device 21 usually has a display 700 indicating a game state such as being prone to change in the upper left part and a special character consisting of a three-digit numerical value in the center of the screen. In the figure, a pseudo symbol 701 and a display 702 of the remaining number of advantageous gaming states are displayed in the lower right part of the lower surface. When the point numerical value is given, a point display 703 is displayed in the upper right part of the display screen as shown in FIG.
Returning to FIG. 17, in step S558, the count flag is reset to “0” and the process returns.

  The “privilege selectable display process” of the sub-integrated control device 42 shown in FIG. 19 performs display for allowing the player to select a bonus. In the process of S600, it is confirmed whether or not the point value is given by checking whether or not the point flag is “1”.

  If the point flag is “1” (S600: yes), it is checked whether or not the assigned point numerical value has reached a predetermined value (S601). In this process, whether the point value satisfies the predetermined value “10” that can be given the “BGM”, the predetermined value “20” that can be given the “bonus game bonus image”, or the “Tatsuyoshi mode” Then, confirmation is made in order of whether or not the predetermined value “50” to which the “boxing mode” can be given is satisfied, up to the “probable change promotion effect” and “re-lottery effect” having the largest predetermined value. Then, in the subsequent process of S602, a benefit corresponding to the largest predetermined value reached by the point value can be selected on the effect symbol display device 21, and a display asking whether or not to select is performed.

As shown in FIG. 18 (c), when the assigned point value is “53 points”, the privilege of “Tatsuyoshi mode” and “Boxing mode” with a predetermined value “50” can be selected and selected. A display 704 asking whether or not to do so is performed. In this case, the “Tatsuyoshi mode” and “Boxing mode” are switched by the right operation of the jog dial 16 and the selection is confirmed by pressing the game button 15.
Of course, “BGM” and “bonus game bonus image” having a predetermined value lower than this can be selected. In this case, the privilege is switched by operating the jog dial 16 to the left, and the privilege is confirmed by pressing the game button 15.
In this pachinko machine, the selection of a privilege is performed while the jackpot symbol is confirmed and displayed. Or you may make it carry out by the end effect of a jackpot game.

As shown in FIG. 20, in the “privilege selection process” of the sub-integrated control device 42, it is confirmed whether or not the player has selected a bonus through the process of S602 (FIG. 19) (S650). S650: yes), “1” is set in the privilege flag corresponding to the content selected in the processing of S651 (privilege selection means). For example, “1” is set in the privilege flag of “Tatsuyoshi mode”.
In the subsequent process of S652, the point value corresponding to the content of the selected privilege is subtracted. For example, when “Tatsuyoshi mode” is selected, 50 points are subtracted.

  In the subsequent process of S653, it is confirmed whether or not the point value after subtraction is “0”. If the point value is “0”, the point flag is reset to “0” in the process of S654, and the process of S655 In the processing, the point display of the effect symbol display device 21 is ended.

The selected privilege is given when the game returns from the probability change state or the short time state to the normal game state without expired due to expiration.
As shown in FIG. 21, in the “privilege grant process” of the sub integrated control device 42, it is confirmed whether or not the process returns to the normal game state without being a big hit from the probability change state or the short time state in the process of S <b> 700. If it is the normal gaming state (S700: yes), it is confirmed whether or not the privilege flag corresponding to the selected content is “1” (S701).

  If the privilege flag is "1" (S701: yes), a process of granting a privilege according to the selected content is performed in the subsequent process of S702 (privilege execution means). For example, the production mode is switched to “Tatsuyoshi mode”. Thereafter, the privilege flag is reset to “0” (S703), and the process returns.

As shown in FIG. 22A, when the “Tatsuyoshi mode” is started, the start display 705 of the Tatsuyoshi mode on the display screen of the effect symbol display device 21 and the “Tatsuyoshi Kumano” 706 of the main character are displayed. And the point display 703 displays the remainder which subtracted the point numerical value used by provision of a privilege.
As shown in FIG. 22B, in the “boxing mode”, the boxer 707 and the karate 708 fight, and if the ally defeats the other party, an effect that is a big hit is performed.

  As shown in FIG. 22 (c), the pachinko machine assumes that no game has been played after a predetermined period of time in which no special figure is changed, that is, the player stops the game. The assigned point numerical value is cleared and the display 709 with the point numerical value cleared is performed on the display screen of the effect symbol display device 21.

Although this pachinko machine is a big hit from the first or second advantageous gaming state in which the probability change and the time reduction function, and the first or second advantageous gaming state is canceled by the big hit, the first or second after the big hit game is finished. When the advantageous gaming state is reached, that is, when the first or second advantageous gaming state continues with a big hit, the point values given in each gaming state are integrated (point integrating means). Further, as shown in FIG. 22 (a), the remaining point values due to the provision of privileges are also integrated.
However, the present invention is not limited to this, and small point values that are given when a big hit occurs but less than a small point value or a point value that remains after selection of a privilege may be deleted each time.

  Benefits include "BGM", "Big Bonus Game Bonus Image", "Tatsuyoshi Mode", "Boxing Mode", "One-shot Notification", "Tatsuyoshi Reach", "Boxing Reach", "15R Final Design", "Probability Promotion Promotion ”And“ Re-lottery effect ”(FIG. 15) are provided, but with these as categories, an option may be provided to change the privilege contents by further using point values in the selected category. For example, in “Tatsuyoshi mode”, as shown in FIG. 23, the category of “Tatsuyoshi mode” is selected with 50 points, and further, 10 points are used for “Tatsuyoshi mode A”, 50 points are used for “Tatsuyoshi mode B”, Options such as “Tatsuyoshi mode C” using 100 points, “Tatsuyoshi mode D” using 200 points, and “Premier Tatsuyoshi mode” using 500 points may be selected.

  According to the pachinko machine of the present embodiment, the big game hits, the advantageous game state such as probability change and short time is released, and the game state before the big hit is not continued, so the player's gambling feeling is enshrined There is nothing. In addition, even if the remaining number of remaining advantageous gaming states remains, and even if it is a big hit, a high point value can be obtained according to the remaining number of times, and according to the point value, a high-ranking video that is not normally realized as a privilege Since an effect such as voice is given, it is possible to avoid dissatisfaction with the player even if the advantageous gaming state is canceled due to the occurrence of the jackpot.

In addition, this pachinko machine accumulates the point value when the advantageous gaming state continues across the big hit so that it becomes a big hit from the advantageous gaming state, and the advantageous gaming state after the big winning game ends, Since a numerical value is obtained and a privilege with a higher rank can be obtained, the player can enjoy the game aiming at a continuous advantageous gaming state.
And by accumulating point numbers, players can entertain the game that they can choose a bonus in addition to the original ball game such as a big win / fail lottery, and the playability of the bonus as well as the gameability of the ball Can be improved. In addition, it is possible to improve the player's willingness to play a game that is born of new enjoyment that the game machine is preferred by the player.

Furthermore, since this pachinko machine executes the benefits selected by the player when returning from the advantageous gaming state to the normal gaming state without making a big hit, the player's willingness to continue the game can be increased. it can.
Not limited to this, the execution of the privilege may be started when the privilege is selected by the player.

  Furthermore, when the pachinko machine game is not played (no change in the special figure) and the standby state reaches a predetermined time, the stored point value is deleted, so the previous player's point value is changed to the next game. It is possible to suitably prevent an erroneous assignment of a point value that is accumulated by a person.

Next, a pachinko machine according to a second embodiment to which the present invention is applied will be described.
As shown in FIG. 24, this pachinko machine has “BGM”, “hit bonus game bonus image”, “Tatsuyoshi mode”, “ In addition to “boxing mode”, “single announcement”, “tatsuyoshi reach”, “boxing reach”, “15R finalized design”, “probable promotion promotion”, “re-lottery production”, “prefetching production” is possible. is there. The basic configuration of the pachinko machine is almost the same as that of the pachinko machine according to the first embodiment, and differences will be mainly described.

  FIG. 25 shows the “start port winning confirmation process 2” executed by the main control device 40 of this pachinko machine. This process is based on the detection signals of the first and second start ports SW503 and 504. 2. It is confirmed whether or not there is a prize at the special figure starting ports 23 and 24 (S210). If there is a winning (S210: yes), it is confirmed whether the number of reserved memories has already reached the upper limit and is not full (S211). The upper limit number that can be stored is four. If the hold memory is not full (S211: yes), in the extracted random number hold storage process of S212, a plurality of random number values (a jackpot determination random number, a jackpot symbol determination random number, a reach determination random number, a loss determination) The random number for design determination, the random number for variation pattern determination, etc.) are extracted and stored as the reserved storage.

In the subsequent processing of S213, prefetch determination is performed to determine whether or not the big hit determination random number related to the newly generated pending storage is a big hit. In the process of S214, a prefetch command indicating the result of the prefetch determination is generated and transmitted to the sub integrated control device 42.
The sub integrated control device 42 that has received the prefetch command stores the prefetch determination result indicated by the prefetch command until the pending storage corresponding to the prefetch command is exhausted.

In the subsequent S215, the number of lighting of the first or second special figure hold number display devices 271, 281 is increased, and a hold number designation command indicating the current hold memory number is transmitted to the sub integrated control device 42.
A single command indicating the number of reserved memories corresponding to each special figure and the result of the prefetch determination for the reserved memories may be generated, and the command may be used in place of the prefetch command or the pending number command. .

  In this pachinko machine, when the “prefetch effect” is selected according to the point value by the player as a privilege, “1” is set in the “prefetch use permission flag” in the sub integrated control device 42. Then, a pre-reading exercise is performed by the “pre-reading effect content determination process” shown in FIG. 26 executed by the sub integrated control device 42.

  In the “prefetch effect content determination process”, first, it is confirmed whether or not a prefetch determination command is received from the main controller 40 in the process of S750. If the reception of the prefetch command can be confirmed (S750: yes), the prefetch use permission flag is referred to in the process of S751, and it is confirmed whether the prefetch effect is permitted in the process of S752.

  If the prefetch effect is permitted (S752: yes), the prefetch determination content is referred to by the prefetch command (S753), and the prefetch effect is performed in the process of S754.

  As shown in FIG. 27, in the pre-reading effect, a reserved memory display 710 is displayed at the lower left portion of the display screen of the effect symbol display device 21, and a star mark 711 or the like is displayed as a reserved memory that may be a big hit among them. .

  According to this pachinko machine, the same effect as the pachinko machine of the first embodiment can be obtained, and a pre-reading effect can be provided as a privilege, so that the player's willingness to play can be further enhanced.

Next, a pachinko machine according to a third embodiment to which the present invention is applied will be described.
In this embodiment, a website corresponding to a pachinko machine is operated, and a player who is registered as a member by a well-known method can store the point value given by the pachinko machine on this website, The stored point value can be carried over to the next game.

That is, as shown in FIG. 28, in the pachinko machine 1A, at the end of the game or the like, a two-dimensional code that can specify the information of the given point numerical value and the like is generated (code display means), and the effect symbol display device Displayed on the screen. At this time, when a player who is a member takes a picture of the two-dimensional code with a mobile communication terminal 70 with a camera such as a mobile phone or a smartphone, the player can access the server computer 80 that operates the website, Information on the numerical value of points is stored on the website.
The two-dimensional code includes the latest game history information, which is also stored on the website.

  When the member accesses the server computer 80 with the mobile communication terminal 70, a password corresponding to the point value information stored in the pachinko machine 1A stored on the website is issued, and the password is sent to the pachinko machine 1A. When input, the point numerical value is recognized in the pachinko machine 1A, and a privilege corresponding to the point numerical value can be selected using the point numerical value.

  As shown in FIG. 29 (a), the pachinko machine 1A is displayed on the display screen of the effect symbol display device 21 by operating the game button 15 in a standby state in which no game is played (the special figure has not changed). A selection screen 712 is displayed, whereby a selection display 713 for selecting “stop the game” or “start the game from the next” is made.

  When the jog dial 16 is operated to select “stop game” and the game button 15 is operated to confirm “stop game”, as shown in FIG. A display 714 suggesting that a game history including information can be carried over is performed, and the two-dimensional code 715 is displayed (code display means).

When a player photographs the two-dimensional code 715 with a mobile communication terminal 70 with a camera such as a mobile phone or a smartphone, the player can access the server computer 80 that operates the website, and stores point numerical information and the like on the website. Is done.
The server computer 80 issues a password corresponding to the point numerical value information stored on the website.

  As shown in FIG. 30 (a), the pachinko machine 1A displays the effect symbol display device 21 by operating the game button 15 a plurality of times in a standby state where no game is played (the special figure has not changed). A display 716 for prompting the input of the password and a password input screen 717 are displayed on the screen (password input display means).

As shown in FIG. 30B, a password 718 is entered on the password input screen 717, and when it is authenticated, a message 719 indicating that the password has been authenticated is displayed. The password is input by operating the jog dial 16 and the game button 15.
As shown in FIG. 31, the password is authenticated in “continuous game processing” executed by the sub-integrated control device 42.

  In the “continuous game process”, first, in the process of S800, it is confirmed whether or not the password input screen 717 shown in FIG. 30A is displayed. If the display of the input screen 717 can be confirmed (S800: yes), the password It is confirmed whether or not the input is completed (S801). If the input of the password has been completed (S801: yes), a password verification process is performed in the process of S802 (password accepting means), and it is determined whether or not to approve the password (S803).

If the password is approved (S803: yes), a display 719 indicating that the password has been authenticated is performed in the process of S804, and a game setting process is performed in the process of S805. As a result of this processing, information about the point numerical value is read from the password, and the point numerical value can be used (point reading means).
On the other hand, if the password is not approved in the process of S803 (S803: no), a password error is displayed on the display screen of the effect symbol display device 21 (S806).
