It is supposed to be.

  At the input end of the sub integrated control device 83, a game switch 67a operable by the player is connected. The output terminal of the sub integrated control device 83 is connected to various types of LEDs and lamps 26 provided on a design frame and the game board 1 (not shown), and a speaker 66 provided on the front frame and the speaker unit. The sub integrated control device 83 and the main control device 80 are configured as a one-way communication circuit from the main control device 80 to the sub integrated control device 83, and the sub integrated control device 83 and the rendering symbol control device 82 are sub integrated control. It is configured as a one-way communication circuit from the device 83 to the rendering symbol control device 82.

  The sub integrated control device 83 is provided with electrical components such as a CPU, a ROM, a RAM, etc., executes processing by the CPU according to a program stored in the mounted ROM, and the input of the game switch 67a to be input and the main control device 80 The various commands etc. in connection with an effect are produced | generated based on the command input from, and it outputs to the production | presentation symbol control apparatus 82. FIG.

  Further, the sub integrated control device 83 is provided with a volume adjustment switch 83a for adjusting the volume, detects the state (position) of the volume adjustment switch 83a, and determines the detection result and the content to be transmitted to the speaker 66. The sound volume output from the speaker 66 is configured to be controlled by software.

  The effect symbol control device 82 displays effect symbols based on data and commands received from the sub integrated control device 83 (both of which are transmitted from the main control device 80 and those generated by the sub integrated control device 83). The apparatus 6 is controlled to display an effect image such as a pseudo symbol.

  In addition, although this machine is configured to pay out the prize balls outside the machine, a predetermined number of game balls are enclosed in the machine, and the fired game balls are collected in the game machine and used cyclically. The effects of the present invention can be exhibited without any problem as a sealed game machine that performs

  Next, the outline of the operation contents of the gaming machine will be described using the chart of FIG. The pachinko machine in the present embodiment is configured as a probability varying machine, and the pass / fail determination based on the game ball entry into the first starting port 11 and the second starting port 12 is normal gaming state (low probability gaming state) (of the present invention It is carried out in one of the gaming states of the normal gaming state) and the high probability gaming state (corresponding to the high probability gaming state of the present invention) having a high probability of being a big hit compared to the normal gaming state. In this embodiment, the normal (low) probability is set to 1/300 and the high probability is set to 1/30. The small hit probability is the same 1/300 in the normal gaming state and the high probability gaming state, and when it is won, the second large winning opening 91 operates for 1.6 seconds.

  In addition, it has an open extension function that changes the operation trigger and operation time of the normal motorized part (second start port 12), and when the open extension function is not activated, the normal electric motor is operated against one hit of the normal symbol. The utility performs one 0.2 second opening operation, and at the time of the open extension function operation (corresponding to the open extension state of the present invention), the normal motorized symbol is 1.0 for one hit of the normal symbol. The second release operation is set to be performed three times. In addition, the variation pattern (variation time) of the first and second special symbols in the gaming state (opening extension state) in which the opening extension function operates is a variation pattern selection table used in the gaming state when the opening extension function is not in operation. It is configured to be selected using a variation pattern selection table set so that the average variation time is shorter than that. As a result, the number of times of variation of the special symbol per unit time at the time of opening extension function activation is configured to be more than that when opening extension function is not working (short time state), and at this time the short function is operation of opening extension function It works in the same way as the start and end triggers.

  In addition, at the time of the open extension function operation, when the fluctuation time of the normal symbol is shortened (the number of times of fluctuation of the normal symbol per unit time increases), the short function is also operated. Specifically, the variation time of the normal symbol when the open extension function is not activated is set to 6.2 seconds, and the variation time of the normal symbol when the open extension function is activated is set to 0.7 seconds. There is. As a result, at the time of the open extension function operation, the number of times of fluctuation of the normal symbol per unit time is increased, and the operation opportunity of the ordinary electric vehicle is greatly increased. As a result, the ball entering rate to the ordinary motorized symbol per unit time increases, and the number of times of variation of the second special symbol increases, and the decrease in ball holding is suppressed.

  In addition, the pachinko game machine of this example, the contents of the big hit game (the maximum number of rounds and the operation time for each round) and the game state after the big hit game end (high probability state transitions according to the type of big hit symbol) And whether or not to shift to the open / extended state (shorted state) is set.

  In addition, in the big hit game set according to the big hit symbol, the first big winning opening 14 is activated in the first round, and the second big winning opening 91 provided with the continuation opening 94 is activated after the second round. It has a configuration (corresponding to "operating the second large winning opening after performing the operation of the first large winning opening" of the present invention).

  Furthermore, in order for the second big winning opening 91 to shift to the next round, it is a condition that the gaming ball entering the second big winning opening 91 enters the continuing opening 94. If the game ball enters the continuation port 94 in each round in which the second large winning opening 91 operates, the big hit game continues until the set highest round, and the continuation opening 94 is in operation during the second large winning opening 91 If the game ball does not enter, the round which did not enter becomes the final round and the big hit game is ended (corresponding to the contents of the round continuation means of the present invention). The relationship between the jackpot symbol and the jackpot game and the game state after the jackpot game will be described later with reference to the drawings.

  Next, the "main routine" executed by main controller 80 will be described using the flowchart shown in FIG. In the "main routine", when a hardware interrupt is executed by the microcomputer, it is first determined whether the interrupt is a normal interrupt (S10). This determination process is performed by determining whether or not the value of a predetermined area of the RAM as a memory is a predetermined value, and when the process executed by the microcomputer shifts to this process, the normal process is executed. It is for judging whether it is good or not. In the case of a non-normal interrupt, it is conceivable that the microcomputer runs out upon power-on or due to noise, etc. However, since it is considered that there is almost no runaway of the microcomputer due to the recent improvement of technology, most are power-on. When the power is turned on, the value of the predetermined area of the RAM is different from the predetermined value.

  If it is determined that S10 is not a negative determination, that is, it is not a normal interrupt (S10: no), initial setting (for example, writing a predetermined value to a predetermined area of the memory and setting special symbols and ordinary symbols as initial symbols) Writing of each initial value to the work area of the memory, etc.) is performed (S15), and the process proceeds to the remaining process (initial random number update process (S80)).

  When an affirmative judgment with normal interruption is made (S10: yes), initial value random number update processing (S20), random number update processing for big hit determination (S25), random number 1 update processing for big hit symbol determination (S30), big hit symbol determination Random number 2 update processing (S35), small hit symbol determination random number update processing (S40), winning determination random number update processing (S45), reach determination random number update processing (S50), variation pattern determination random number update processing (S55) ) Is done.

  In the subsequent winning confirmation process (S60), winning to the first start opening 11, the second starting opening 12, and the normal symbol operation gate 17, the first large winning opening 14, the second large winning opening 91, to the continuation opening 94 The ball entry processing and the input processing of each switch provided in the pachinko machine 50 and connected to the main control device 80 are executed. Subsequently, each output process (S70) such as a pass / fail judgment process (S65), an image output process, etc., a fraud monitoring process (S75) is performed, and the initial random number is updated within the remaining time until the next interrupt signal is input. The processing (S80) is looped.

  Next, the start winning process executed by main controller 80 will be described using the flowchart shown in FIG. In the start winning process, when the gaming ball enters the first starting opening 11 and the second starting opening 12, or when the gaming ball passes the normal symbol operation gate 17, various random numbers such as a random number etc. This processing is processing for storing (storing) in the main control device 80 as pending storage. Further, in the present process, a preread determination process is performed to determine whether or not the stored random number is a preset value before performing a yes / no determination process described later. Also, in the start winning process, processing is performed to transmit various commands resulting from the ball entering the first start port 11 and the second start port 12 to the sub integrated control device 83. Thereafter, the first hold storage is stored when the game ball enters the first start opening 11, and the second hold memory when the game ball enters the second start opening 12 The storage, which is stored when the gaming ball passes through the storage, the normal symbol operation gate 17, will be described as a common drawing storage.

  In the present embodiment, the maximum number of lightings by each of the normal symbol holding number display 8, the first special view holding number display 18, and the second special view holding number display 19 is four (the maximum holding memory number is However, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, the maximum storage number of each may be eight. In addition, even when the number of reserved memories is 0, it is extracted when the game ball is won in the first start hole 11 and the second start hole 12 or when the game ball enters the normal symbol operation gate 17 The various random numbers such as the success or failure random number are stored in the main control unit 80 as in the case where there is a memory number less than the maximum value.

  When the start winning process is started, it is determined whether or not the first start port switch 11a has detected a game ball (S100). If the determination is negative (S100: no), the process proceeds to S130, and if the determination is affirmative (S100: yes), it is determined whether the number of first pending storages stored in main controller 80 is less than the upper limit (= 4). (S105). If it is negative determination (S105: no), it proceeds to S130, and if it is positive determination (S105: yes), it extracts the random number for big hit decision which is extracted, random number 1 for big hit design decision, random number 2 for big hit design decision, random number for small hit design decision The reach determination random number and the variation pattern determination random number are stored as the first hold storage, and 1 is added to the first hold storage counter indicating the number of the first hold storage (S110).

  Following S110, pre-reading determination of the stored first holding storage is performed (S115). Specifically, it is checked whether or not the value of the jackpot determination random number stored in S110 is a value that causes a jackpot, and if it is a jackpot value, the kind of jackpot symbol is confirmed. If the big hit judgment is a loss, it is confirmed whether or not it is a value that causes a small hit, and if it is a lost, it is confirmed whether or not the random number for reach determination is a super reach value. If it is not a super reach, check whether it is a reach value or not, and check the change time from the value of the change pattern determination random number. By performing the above determination, it is checked whether the random number reserved and stored is a specific value that the player can expect the jackpot (whether it is possible to produce a jackpot expectation even if it is lost).

  Subsequently, a first prefetch determination command is generated based on the determination result of S115 and transmitted to the sub integrated control apparatus 83 (S120), and the first suspension number instruction indicating the value of the first suspension storage counter added in S110 The command is transmitted to the sub integrated control apparatus 83 (S125).

  Following the processing of S125, or the negative determination (S100: no, S105: no) of S100, S105, it is determined whether the second start port switch 12a has detected a gaming ball (S130). If the determination is negative (S130: no), the process proceeds to S160. If the determination is affirmative (S130: yes), it is determined whether the number of second pending storages stored in main controller 80 is less than the upper limit (= 4). (S135). If the determination is negative (S135: no), the process proceeds to S160. If the determination is affirmative (S135: yes), the extracted jackpot determination random number, the big hit symbol determination random number 1, the big hit symbol determination random number 2, the small hit symbol determination A random number, a random number for reach determination, and a random number for variation pattern determination are stored as a second hold storage, and 1 is added to a second hold storage counter indicating the second hold storage number (S140). Pre-reading determination of pending storage is performed (S145).

  Subsequently, a second prefetch determination command is generated based on the determination result of S145 and transmitted to the sub integrated control apparatus 83 (S150), and the second suspension number instruction indicating the value of the second suspension storage counter added in S140 The command is transmitted to the sub integrated control apparatus 83 (S155), and the process proceeds to S160.

  In S160, it is determined whether or not the normal symbol operation switch 17a has detected the gaming ball (S160). If the determination is negative (S160: no), the process exits to return, and if the determination is affirmative (S160: yes), it is determined whether the number of common drawing reserve storages stored in main controller 80 is less than the upper limit (= 4) S165). If the determination is negative (S165: no), the process exits to return, and if the determination is affirmative (S165: yes), the extracted random number for hit determination and the random number for symbol determination are stored as common drawing reserve storage, Is added to the common drawing reservation storage counter (S170), the common drawing reservation storage number indicating command indicating the value of the common drawing reservation storage counter is sent to the sub integrated control apparatus 83 (S175), and the process returns.

  When the sub integrated control device 83 receives the first and second pending storage number instruction commands, an instruction signal for changing the number of pending symbols displayed on the effect symbol display device 6 according to the pending storage number indicated by the received command Transmit to the effect symbol control device 82. In addition, in this embodiment, the symbol display storage number display of the normal symbol is not performed on the effect symbol display device 6, but it may be configured to be displayed in response to the reception of the common drawing suspension storage number instruction command. The number indication command itself may not be transmitted. Further, a configuration may also be considered in which a pre-reading determination of a common drawing is performed and the determination result is transmitted to the sub integrated control device. As a result, it is possible to carry out a pre-reading advance notice effect that expects the opening of the normal motorized part (the second start opening 12).

  Next, with reference to FIGS. 7, 8, 9 and 10, the special-design pass / fail determination process performed by main controller 80 will be described. This processing corresponds to the hit determination means in the present invention and includes a big hit game selection means, and the main control device 80 determines the big hit obtained when the game ball enters the first starting opening 11 or the second starting opening 12 Whether or not to generate a big hit according to the random number for use and the gaming state (normal gaming state or high probability gaming state) at the time of success or failure determination (corresponding to the success or failure determination of the present invention), if the determination result is a big hit, big hit The contents of the big hit game and the game state after the big hit game end are selected based on the random numbers for symbol determination, and the big hit symbol to be determined and displayed from among a plurality of big hit symbols corresponding to the selected big hit game is determined.

  When the special drawing suitability determination process shown in FIG. 7 is started, main controller 80 determines whether the condition device is not activated (S200). This determination is made based on the big hit flag. The jackpot flag is a flag that stands in the case of winning in the special symbol lottery (when the value of the acquired jackpot determination random number matches the predetermined value determined in advance). If S200 is a negative determination (S200: no), it proceeds to the special game processing to be described later, and if S200 is a positive determination (S200: yes), does the special symbol change stop (S205), the non-display of the final symbol It is determined whether it is a period (S210).

  If both S205 and S210 are affirmation determination (S205: yes, S210: yes), it will progress to FIG. 8 and it will be determined whether there exists 2nd pending storage (S220). If the determination is affirmative (S220: yes), the process proceeds to S230. If the determination is negative (S220: no), it is determined whether or not there is the first pending storage (S225). If S225 is a negative determination (S225: no), it proceeds to special game processing, and if a positive determination (S225: yes), it proceeds to S230. According to the determination order of S220 and S225, the determination of whether the second hold storage is successful or not is performed in preference to the first hold storage.

  In S230, it is determined whether or not the time saving flag is 0 (S230). If the determination is negative (S230: no), the process proceeds to the processing in the short time state, but this processing is not different from the known processing (the time setting of the selected variation pattern is different) and the description will be omitted.

  The time saving flag is a value stored in the main control unit 80. When the value of the time saving flag is "0", it is not a time saving state, and when the value of the time saving flag is "1", the time saving state The main control unit 80 determines that is. In the short time state, the fluctuation time of the normal symbol and the first and second special symbols is shortened, and the open extension function is activated to increase the number of times of actuation of the ordinary electric part and extend the actuation time more than the normal state .

  If S230 is an affirmative determination (S230: yes), shift processing of the first pending storage or the second pending storage is performed to determine the oldest first pending storage or the second pending storage as the object of the pass / fail determination and Subtract 1 from the pending storage counter indicating the first or second pending storage count (S235), and send a pending count instruction command indicating the value of the decremented storage counter to the sub integrated control apparatus 83 (S240) ).

  Subsequently, in the big hit determination random number comparison process, the value of the big hit determination random number is a special figure by comparing the big hit determination random number of the pending storage targeted for the special feature on / off determination with the special feature suitability determination table set in advance. It is compared with the judgment value in the success or failure judgment table (S245). There are two kinds of tables for normal probability (low probability 1/300) and high probability (1/30) for the special drawing hit / non-judgment table, and the game state at the time of the pass / fail judgment is the normal probability state (normal game state In the case of), the comparison is made using the probability determination table for the normal probability, and in the case of the high probability gaming state, the comparison is made using the probability determination table for the high probability. (It corresponds to the judgment of the present invention)

  Subsequently, it is determined whether the comparison result in S245 is a big hit (S250), and if affirmation determination (S250: yes), if affirmation determination (S250: yes), symbol mode setting processing is performed (S255). In the symbol mode setting process, the content of the big hit game and the gaming state after the big hit game (described later using a chart) are determined on the basis of the random number 1 for the big hit symbol determination of the first or second reserve memory to be determined. Set the symbol mode.

  Subsequently, the jackpot symbol selection processing is performed based on the set symbol mode type and the jackpot symbol determination random number 2 (S260). This is processing for determining a jackpot symbol to be displayed for confirmation from among symbol groups set for each type of symbol mode, in order to notify the type of the jackpot game determined by the setting of the symbol mode by the jackpot symbol.

  Next, mode buffer setting processing is performed based on the symbol mode set in S255 (S265). The mode buffer is a device that stores the contents of the gaming state after the end of the big hit game determined at the time of success or failure determination until the end of the big hit game that sets the gaming state (probable change flag and time saving flag to set the gaming state during the big hit game Because you need to clear). As the mode buffer, it does not store the specific game content (the activation of the probability change function and the open extension function (time reduction function) and the number of operations thereof), and is configured to store a value corresponding to the specific game content .

  Next, based on the symbol mode set in S255, open pattern setting processing of the big winning opening which becomes the contents of the big hit game (S270), random number for reach determination for the pending storage to be the object of the pass / fail judgment and fluctuation pattern determination From the variation pattern selection table, select the variation pattern that is the variation time of the symbols to be displayed on the first special symbol display device 9 or the second special symbol display device 10 and the effect symbol display device 6 based on the random number (S275) .

  Next, information on the selected jackpot symbol and variation pattern is transmitted to the sub integrated control device 83 as a variation instruction command (S280). Based on the instruction from the sub integrated control device 83 which has received this information, the effect symbol control device 82 controls the effect symbol display device 6 and based on the information of the big hit symbol and the variation pattern of the first or second special symbol The effect variation display of the pseudo symbol corresponding to the first or second special view is started. Almost simultaneously with the transmission to the sub integrated control device 83, the main control device 80 directly controls the first special symbol display device 9 or the second special symbol display device 10 to start variation of the special symbol.

  If S250 is negative, that is, if there is a loss (S250: no), it is determined whether the result of the comparison processing of S245 is a small hit (S285). However, when the determination target is the second hold storage, the small hit determination is not performed, and the process proceeds to S295 described later. If it is affirmation determination (S285: yes), small hitting design is selected (S290), the opening pattern setting processing of the small hitting game is done next (S270), fluctuation pattern selection processing which corresponds to the small hitting design is done (S275) A variation instruction command serving as information on a small hit symbol and variation pattern is transmitted to the sub integrated control device 83 (S280). Based on the instruction from the sub integrated control device 83 that has received this information, the effect symbol control device 82 controls the effect symbol display device 6 to correspond to the first or second special drawing based on the information of the small hit symbol and the fluctuation pattern Start the fluctuation display of the effect pattern. Almost simultaneously with the transmission to the sub integrated control device 83, the main control device 80 directly controls the first special symbol display device 9 or the second special symbol display device 10 to start variation of the special symbol.

  If S285 is a negative determination (S285: no), the lost symbol is selected (S295), and then the variation pattern setting processing corresponding to the lost symbol is performed (S275), and the variation instruction command serving as information on symbols and variation patterns related to the loss Are sent to the sub integrated control apparatus 83 (S280). Based on the instruction from the sub integrated control device 83 that has received this information, the effect symbol control device 82 controls the effect symbol display device 6 and corresponds to the first or second special view based on the information of the lost symbol and the change pattern Start the fluctuation display of the pseudo symbol. Almost simultaneously with the transmission to the sub integrated control device 83, the main control device 80 directly controls the first special symbol display device 9 or the second special symbol display device 10 to start variation of the special symbol.

  Returning to the processing of FIG. 7, if S205 is negative (S205: no), that is, if the special symbol is changing, the process proceeds to the flowchart of FIG. 9, and the variation time of special feature (based on the variation pattern selected in S275) has elapsed. If it is not determined (S300: no), it proceeds to the special game processing, and if it is determined affirmative (S300: yes), it outputs a symbol stop command to the sub integrated control device 83 and The figure display device 9 or the second special view display device 10 is controlled to display the symbol decided in S260, S290 or S295 in a final manner (S305). The sub integrated control device 83 having received the symbol stop command outputs an instruction signal for causing the effect symbol control device 82 to display a predetermined pseudo (effect) symbol, and the effect symbol control device 82 outputs the effect symbol according to the signal. The display device 6 is controlled to display a pseudo (effect) symbol. Thereby, the start and the end of the fluctuation of the special symbol and the pseudo (rendering) symbol become the same timing (synchronize).

  Following the processing of S305, it is determined whether or not the special symbol displayed in a definite manner indicates a big hit (S310). If the determination is affirmative (S310: yes), the finalized symbol display setting process (time for displaying in finalized symbol) Setting (S315), and sets a big hit flag, performs condition device operation start processing (S320), and determines whether or not the probability change flag is 1 (whether or not the present is a high probability gaming state) (S325) . If S325 is affirmation determination (S325: yes), 0 will be set to a definite variation flag and a time saving flag (S330), and it will progress to special game processing. If S325 is a negative determination (S325: no), it is determined whether or not the short time flag is 1 (S335). If a negative determination (S335: no), the process proceeds to special game processing, and if a positive determination (S335: yes) Is set (S340), and the process proceeds to special game processing.

  In the present embodiment, the open extension function is also activated when the short time flag is set, and the open extension function is ended when the short time flag is dropped. Accordingly, the open extension function is also ended in the processing of S330 and S340 (S365 and S385 described later similarly end the open extension function).

  If S310 is a negative determination (S310: no), that is, the special symbol displayed in a definite manner does not indicate a big hit, the final symbol display setting process (final symbol display time setting) is performed (S345). It determines (S350). If S350 is affirmed determination (S350: yes), the decrement process is performed to decrement the definite variation counter by one (S355), and it is determined whether the value of the probability variation counter is 0 (S360). If S360 is a negative determination (S360: no), the process proceeds to S390, and if a positive determination (S360: yes), both the probability change flag and the time saving flag are set to 0 (S365) and the process proceeds to S390.

  If S350 is a negative determination (S350: no), it is determined whether the short time flag is 1 (S370), and if a negative determination (S370: no), the process proceeds to S390, and if a positive determination (S370: yes) Decrement processing is performed (S375), and it is determined whether the value of the time reduction counter is 0 or not (S380). If S380 is a negative determination (S380: no), the process proceeds to S390, and if a positive determination (S380: yes), the time saving flag is set to 0 (S385), and the process proceeds to S390.

  In S390, it is determined whether or not the special symbol displayed in the final display is a small hit symbol (S390). If it is negative (S390: no), it proceeds to the special game processing, and if it is a positive determination (S390: yes) The command is transmitted to the sub integrated control device 83 to perform small hit game start processing (S395), and the process proceeds to special game processing.

  Referring back to FIG. 7, if the determination in S210 is negative (S210: no), that is, if the special symbol is being displayed, the process proceeds to FIG. 10 to determine whether the determined symbol display time set in S315 or S345 has ended ( S400). If the determination is negative (S400: no), the process proceeds to the special game processing, and if the determination is affirmative (S400: yes), the first special view display device 9 or the second special view display device 10 is controlled to end the final display of the special symbol. Then, an instruction signal is transmitted to the sub integrated control device 83 to execute finalized symbol display end processing for ending the finalized display of the pseudo (effect) symbol (S405), and proceeds to the special game processing.

  The above is the special success / failure determination process executed by the main control device 80. In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 6, random numbers for selecting the types of symbols and variation patterns for notifying the result of the winning or not at the start winning process (Rocking symbol determination random number, small hitting symbol determination random number, reach determination Although the random number and the random number for fluctuation pattern determination) are acquired, these random numbers may be acquired at the time of the pass / fail judgment processing.

  Next, the special game process 1 executed by the main controller 80 in the first embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 11, 12, 13, 14, 15 and 16. FIG. The special game process 1 is a process for controlling the progress of the big hit game, and when entering the continuous port 94 is confirmed by the continuous ball entering confirmation process of FIG. 16, it is configured to shift to the next round.

  When the special game processing 1 is started, it is determined whether or not the condition device is inoperative based on the big hit flag (S500). If S500 is affirmation determination (S500: yes), it will be determined whether the 2nd big winning opening 91 is in operation as a small hit game (S505). If S505 is a negative determination (S505: no), it returns, and if a positive determination (S505: yes), it is determined whether or not a small hit start interval is in progress (S510), if a positive determination (S510: yes), a small hit It is determined whether or not the start interval time has elapsed (S520), and if the determination is negative (S520: no), the process returns, and if the determination is affirmative (S520: yes), the second large winning opening 91 is opened as a small hit game. Together with the sub integrated control unit 83 (S525) to send the second large winning opening small hit effect indication command (S525), the processing of operating the distribution blade 93 in the distribution device 92 with the operation pattern 1 (described later with reference to the figure) (S530) and return. In the small hit game in the present embodiment, the second large winning opening 91 is configured to open for 1.6 seconds.

  In addition, the operation of the distributing blade 93 during the small hit game of the second large winning opening 91 (and the pseudo small hitting described later) is guided to the continuous opening 94 1.0 second after the opening of the second large winning opening 91 starts. Change to the open mode (FIG. 2 (b)), and hold that state for 0.5 seconds to return to the closed mode (FIG.

  If S510 is a negative determination (S510: no), it is determined whether a small hit is in operation (whether or not the second large winning opening 91 is opening for 1.6 seconds) (S535), and if an affirmative determination ( S535: yes), it is determined whether or not the second count switch 91a has detected a game ball (S540), and if affirmation determination (S540: yes), the game ball to the second large winning opening 91 at the time of the small hit game It is determined whether or not the number of ball entry is less than 9 (S545). If S540 is a negative determination (S540: no) or S545 is a positive determination (S545: yes), it is determined whether the open time of the small hit game of the second large winning opening 91 has passed (S550), if a negative determination (S550: no) Return.

  If S545 is a negative determination (S545: no) or S550 is a positive determination (S550: yes), a closing process of the second large winning opening 91 for playing a small hit game is performed (S555), and then a small hitting end effect process Perform (S560) and return.

  If S535 is a negative determination and the small hit game is not in progress (S535: no), it is determined whether or not the small hit end production time has elapsed (S565), and if a negative determination (S565: no), return and affirmation determination If it is (S565: yes), small hit game end processing is done (S570) it returns to return.

  If S500 of FIG. 11 is a negative determination (S500: no), that is, if the big hit flag is set, the process proceeds to the flowchart of FIG. 12, and it is determined whether the first large winning opening 14 and the second large winning opening 91 are closing. If it is affirmation determination (S600: yes), it will be determined whether it is in the start effect of a big hit game (S605). If S605 is affirmed determination (S605: yes), it is determined whether or not the jackpot game start effect time has elapsed (S610), if a negative determination (S610: no) return, if a positive determination (S610: yes), The opening process of the first large winning opening 14 is performed, and a command instructing the first large winning opening opening effect is transmitted to the sub integrated control device 83 (S615), and the process returns.

  If S605 is a negative determination (S605: no), that is, if it is not in the start effect of the big hit game, it is determined whether it is in an interval (S620), if a negative determination (S620: no), that is, not in an interval, If it is determined that the big hit game's end effect is in progress (S655), and if it is affirmed determination (S655: yes), the big hit start effect processing is performed and a command instructing the big integrated start effect to the sub integrated control device 83 is transmitted (S660) Do.

  When the main control device 80 transmits a big hit start rendering instruction command to the sub integrated control device 83 in S660, the sub integrated control device 83 that has received the command makes the lamp and LED provided on the pachinko machine violently for a big hit game effect Make it emit light or make a big hit game sound output from the speaker. Also, the sub integrated control device 83 transmits a signal to the effect symbol control device 82 to display the big hit start effect in the effect symbol display device 6, but about the big hit game set based on the big hit symbols 3 and 4 described later Performs the operation of the second large winning opening 91 which will be the second round as a pseudo small hit game, and in order to make it difficult to distinguish the actual small hit game, a big hit start command based on the big hit symbols 3 and 4 When the player receives a big hit start effect, the small hit start effect is performed, and the big hit start effect is started based on the game ball entering the continuation port 94 in the second round.

  If S620 is positive, that is, if the interval is being performed (S620: yes), it is determined whether the interval time has elapsed (S625), if it is negative (S625: no), and if it is positive (S625: yes), It is determined whether the next round is the second round where the second big winning opening 91 is the first opening (S630), and if it is affirmed determination (S630: yes), it is determined whether or not to continue in the next round In order to perform the opening process of the second big winning opening 91 without, it advances to S645 which it mentions later. This is that when the first round in which the first large winning opening 14 without the continuation opening (94) is activated, the big hit game continues unconditionally until the second round in which the second large opening 91 performs the first opening. In order to

  If S630 is a negative determination, that is, if the next round is a round after the third round (S630: no), it is determined whether the continuation flag is 1 (S635), and if affirmation determination (S635: yes), the continuation flag is 0 Is set (S640), and the process proceeds to S645.

  The continuation flag is a value stored by the main control unit 80. If the value is 1, the game ball entered in the second large winning opening 91 enters the continuation opening 94 (condition established), and the next time When the value is 0, the main control unit 80 determines not to shift to the next round. Further, the setting of the continuation flag based on the entry of the game ball into the continuation port 94 is performed in the continuation slot ball confirmation processing, and the contents thereof will be described using the flowchart shown in FIG.

  The continuation entrance ball confirmation process is activated in the continuation entrance ball period by determining whether or not it is the continuation entrance ball period (S850), the continuation entrance ball period is the second other than the small hit game and the last round It becomes a predetermined period (1.5 seconds in this embodiment) after the operation start of the big winning opening 91 after the operation end, but it may be set in consideration of the closing state operation of the distribution blade 93 (the distribution blade 93) Except during the closed period in the closed state of).

  If S850 is affirmed determination (S850: yes), it is determined whether the continuation flag is 0 (S855). If it is affirmed determination (S860: yes), it is determined whether or not the continuation port switch 94a has detected a game ball (S860). If the determination is affirmative (S860: yes), the continuation flag is set to 1 (S865), a continuation command is sent to the sub integrated control unit 83 (S870), and the process returns. If S850, S855, and S860 are negative, the process returns (S850: no, S855: no, S860: no). The above is the continuous entrance ball confirmation processing, which corresponds to the round continuation means of the present invention together with the determination of S635 in FIG.

  Referring back to FIG. 12, in S645 following the negative determination in S640 or S630, the second large winning opening 91 is opened, and the second large winning opening 91 starts opening. A command to instruct the special winning opening opening effect is transmitted (S595) and the process returns. The sub integrated control device 83 having received the command instructs each effect device at the time of opening the second large winning opening 91 at the time of the big hit game, except for the start of the second round based on the big hit symbols 3 and 4 In order to make it difficult to distinguish between a small hit game and the second round based on the big hit symbols 3 and 4, the same effect mode as the small hit game is instructed to each effect device.

  Following S645, the operation of the distributing blade 93 is performed (S650), and the process returns. In the operation process of the distributing blade 93 of S650, the operation of the same operation pattern 1 as that of the small hit game is performed. The operation pattern 1 performed by the distributing blade 93 is the operation shown in the timing chart in the lower part of FIG. 17, and more specifically, the open state of 0.5 seconds after the closed state (FIG. 2A) for 1.0 second (FIG. Assuming that 2 (b) is one operation pattern (operation pattern 1), this operation continues from the start of opening of the second large winning opening 91 until the operation of the second large winning opening 91 ends and the valid period of the continuation opening 94 elapses. Repeat the pattern.

  If S600 in FIG. 12 is a negative determination, that is, if either the first large winning opening 14 or the second large winning opening 91 is open (S600: no), the process proceeds to the flow chart of FIG. It is determined whether or not the opening is in progress, that is, whether or not the first round is being executed (S700), and if the determination is affirmative (S700: yes), it is determined whether the first count switch 14a has detected the gaming ball (S705) If the determination is affirmative (S705: yes), it is determined whether the number of detections of the first count switch 14a during opening is less than nine (S710). If the negative determination in S705, or S710 is a positive determination (S710: yes), it is determined whether the opening time of the first large winning opening 14 has elapsed (S715), if a negative determination (S715: no) return and affirmation If it is determined (S715: yes), the first big winning opening 14 is closed (S720).

  If S700 is negative, that is, if the second large winning opening after the second round is open (S700: no), it is determined whether the second count switch 91a has detected a game ball (S725), and if it is affirmed determination (S725: yes), it is determined whether the number of detections of the second count switch 91a during opening is less than 9 (S730), S725 is negative (S725), or S730 is positive (S730: yes) Then, it is judged whether or not the opening time of the second big winning opening 91 has passed (S735), and if it is a negative judgment (S735: no), it returns and if it is a positive judgment (S735: yes), closing the second large winning opening 91 A process is performed (S740).

  Following S720 or S740, the process proceeds to the flowchart of FIG. 14, and it is determined whether the operation of the second large winning opening 91 ended is the final round (S750). The game ball does not enter the continuation port 94 while the second large winning opening 91 is activated (S750: yes) or the negative determination (S635: no) of S635 (FIG. 12). Continuation flag = 0) If the operation of the 2nd big winning opening 91 which was carried out results in the last round, the big hit end production processing is done, the command which directs the big hit ending production to the sub integrated control unit 83 is transmitted ( S 755) Return. If the determination result in S750 is negative (S750: no), a big hit interval process is performed, and an instruction signal for starting interval effect production is sent to the sub integrated control apparatus 83 (S760), and the process returns.

  Referring back to FIG. 12, if S655 is affirmed (S655: yes), that is, if the big hit end effect is being performed, the process proceeds to the flowchart of FIG. 15 to determine whether the big hit end effect time has elapsed (S800). : No), I get out of return.

  If S800 is affirmation determination (S800: yes), the stop processing (S805) of the bonus product continuous operation device and the operation stop processing (S810) of the condition device are performed and the big hit game is ended, S265 (Fig. 8 special figure propriety judgment processing) (S815), the definite change flag (S820), the definite change counter (S825), the short time flag (S830), and the short time counter (S835), and clear the mode buffer (S840). A state designation command based on the end command (S845) and the set probability change flag and the time saving flag is sent to the integrated control unit 83 (S850), and the process returns.

  The above is the description of the special game process 1 (and the continuation slot ball confirmation process) executed by the main controller 80 in the first embodiment, and from the first round in which the first big game port 14 operates to the second big game port 91 The second transition is activated unconditionally until the second round of operation, but after the second round, during the operation of the second large winning opening 91 (more specifically, the operation of the second large winning opening 91 ends and the continuation of the opening 94 On the condition that the game ball has entered the continuation port 94 at the end of the interval in which the entry effective period has elapsed), the configuration is to continue to the next round.

  Next, using the chart shown in FIG. 17, a big hit game (playing state after the big hit game ends, and the contents of the big hit game) according to the type of big hit symbol will be described. In this embodiment, the big hit symbols of the first special symbol are 5 types from 1 to 5, and the big hit symbols of the second special symbol are 2 types of 1 and 5, and 5 types of big hit games according to the type of each big hit symbol Is equipped. In addition, the operation pattern of the distributing blade 93 in the distributing device 92 activated at the time of the second big winning opening 91 operation is the same as the operation pattern 1 at the time of the small hit game at all the big hit games, and the second large When the winning opening 91 is opened for a maximum of 28 seconds, the operation pattern 1 is repeatedly performed.

  If "big hit symbol 1" is selected with probability of 30/100 in special feature eligibility determination processing 1, the game state after the end of the big hit game is with high probability game state and time saving state (open extension state) until the next big hit (Specifically, it continues until the special symbol changes 10000 times). As for the contents of the big hit game, the first big winning opening 14 performs the opening operation for a maximum of 28 seconds (ends with 9 counts) in the first round, and after the second round, the second big winning opening 91 is the largest in any round Perform an opening operation for 28 seconds (ends with 9 counts). In addition, although the highest round that can be continued (round set in S270 of FIG. 8 special feature eligibility determination processing 1) is 15 rounds, on the condition that the gaming ball enters the continuation port 94 in each round, the next time Transition to the round of

  Therefore, although the game moves unconditionally from the first round to the second round, if the gaming ball entering the second large winning opening 91 during the second round does not enter the continuation opening 94, the maximum continuation Even if the round is 15 rounds, the big hit game ends when the second round is over. In addition, even if a plurality of gaming balls enter the continuation port 94 in the second round, only the transition conditions for the next round (the third round) will be established. The transition condition to the next round is common to all the big hit games corresponding to the big hit symbols 1 to 5.

  If "big hit symbol 2" is selected with a probability of 10/100 in special feature hit / not decision processing 1, the gaming state after the big hit game is the high probability gaming state until the next big hit, like "big hit symbol 1" And the short time state (open extension state). As for the contents of the big hit game, in the first round, the first large winning opening 14 performs the opening operation for a maximum of 28 seconds, and after the second round, the second large winning opening 91 performs the opening operation for a maximum of 28 seconds in any round. Do. Also, the highest round that can be continued will be eight rounds.

  If "big hit symbol 3" is selected with probability of 5/100 in Special figure hit / not-judgement processing 1, the gaming state after the big hit game end becomes high probability gaming state until the next big hit, but time saving state (open extension state It does not become). As for the contents of the big hit game, the first big winning opening 14 performs opening operation for 0.2 seconds in the first round, and in the second round, the second big winning opening 91 opens the same 1.6 seconds as the small hitting game. The operation (corresponding to the pseudo small hit operation of the present invention) is performed, and after the third round, the second large winning opening 91 performs an opening operation for up to 28 seconds in any round. Also, the highest round that can be continued will be eight rounds.

  If "big hit pattern 4" is selected with probability of 10/100 in special figure propriety judgment processing 1, only the highest round which can be different from "big hit pattern 3" mentioned above is different (the highest round is 4 rounds) big hit game Is done. The second round of "big hit design 3, 4" becomes the pseudo small hit round.

  If "big hit symbol 5" is selected with a probability of 45/100 in the special feature eligibility determination processing 1, the gaming state after the end of the big hit game does not shift to the high probability gaming state, and the special symbol changes 100 times Transition to the short time state (open extension state) until the display is performed. As for the contents of the big hit game, in the first round, the first large winning opening 14 performs the opening operation for a maximum of 28 seconds, and after the second round, the second large winning opening 91 performs the opening operation for a maximum of 28 seconds in any round. Perform and continue to the maximum 15 rounds by entering the continuation opening 94.

  The above is the relationship between the type of big hit symbol and the type of big hit game in this embodiment, and the big hit game corresponding to "big hit symbol 3, 4" which performs pseudo small hit operation in the second round is the pseudo small hit of the present invention It corresponds to a big hit game, and the game state after the big hit game is finished corresponds to the configuration of “the open extended state transition means is not performed after the end of the pseudo small hit big hit game” of the present invention. In addition, since the second special symbol has only big hit symbols 1 and 5, when the big hit of the second special symbol does not perform the big hit game which performs the pseudo small hit operation, only the big hit game of maximum 15 round continuation is executed.

  In addition, in the big hit game corresponding to the "big hit symbols 3, 4", when the first big winning opening 14 opens 0.2 seconds as the first round, when the first big winning opening 14 is opened, the sorting blade It is preferable to change 93 from the closed state to the open state for a short time (for example, 0.2 seconds). As a result, the second large winning opening is implemented immediately after turning off the player's eyes from opening 0.2 seconds of the first large winning opening 14 and making it difficult to recognize the opening of the first large winning opening 14. It is possible to make it difficult to determine 91 pseudo small hit operations and the actual small hit game.

  Furthermore, a configuration (for example, A and B of the liquid crystal frame ornament 5 that is most visible from the player) is provided with a movable movable object (corresponding to the movable body of the present invention) for presentation connected to the sub integrated control device 83 on the game board surface. Move the movable bodies A and B when the sub integrated control device 83 receives the small hitting start rendering instruction command (FIG. 9, S 395) from the main control device 80 with the part as the movable part). In the big hit game corresponding to the "big hit symbols 3, 4", the operation sound of the movable bodies A and B is generated, and also when the first big winning opening 14 is opened for 0.2 seconds as the first round. It is preferable to generate the operation sound of the movable bodies A and B by operating the movable bodies A and B in response to the reception of the first large winning opening opening effect instruction command (FIG. 12, S615).

  As a result, even if the opening operation of the first large winning opening 14 before the pseudo small hitting operation is very short, the operation sound of the first large winning opening 14 is generated, whereby the player is the pseudo small hitting. There is a risk that you will notice that, by operating the movable part before the simulated small hitting action and the actual small hitting action, it will not let you notice the operation sound of the first big winning opening 14, and it will be false small hit and It can make it difficult to distinguish the actual small hit.

  Next, display contents to be displayed on the effect symbol display device 6 will be described with reference to FIGS. In FIG. 18 (1), during the big hit game in which the second big winning opening 91 is activated, the sub control device 83 receives the continuation command (continuation slot entering confirmation processing (FIG. 16), S870) from the main control device 80. It is an example of display of the case. The figure example shows the case where the continuation command is received during the second round, and specifically, “2R” indicating the number of rounds currently being executed is displayed at the center of the screen, and when the continuation command is received, the continuation is made at the top of the screen A notification area appears, and the wording "continuing the next round" is displayed in the continuation notification area to notify that the next round (in this case, three rounds) is newly started when the round ends.

  FIG. 18 (2) is a display example displayed at the end of the big hit game (during the big hit end effect) corresponding to the "big hit symbol 1, 2". In the example shown in FIG. 18 (2), the character is displayed substantially at the center of the screen, and the gaming state notification area appears at the top of the screen, and the word "to definite variation mode" is displayed in the gaming state notification area. When the big hit game is over, it notifies that it shifts to the high probability game state. This notification content corresponds to the high probability notification means of the present invention. In the big hit game corresponding to the "big hit symbols 3, 4" and continues to the third round or later, it shifts to the high probability gaming state but does not shift to the time saving state (open extension state), so the end of the big hit game The "probable change mode" is not notified at the time (during big hit end effect), and it is notified that the high probability gaming state is made only by lighting predetermined lamps and LEDs on the board after the end of the big hit game.

  FIG. 19 (3) shows the first opening of the second large winning opening 91 of the second round in the big hit game (simulated small hit big hit game) corresponding to the "big hit pattern 3, 4" (during simulated small hit operation) If the game ball does not enter the continuation port 94, and if the game ball does not enter the continuation port 94 at the time of the small hit game, the latent state notification performed during the big hit end production and the small hit end production It becomes an example of display.

  In the example shown in the figure, the upper part of the character is the latent notification area while the configuration is substantially the same as (2), and the word "to latent mode" is displayed in the latent notification area, so that the big hit is highly probable. It notifies that it may shift to the state which may be a gaming state. The contents of the notification correspond to the special notification means of the present invention. In addition, when the game ball enters the continuation opening 94 at the time of the small hitting game, the display which indicates that the said opening of the 2nd large winning a prize opening 91 was a small hitting, or a normal probability state is performed Is preferred. In addition, when the game ball enters the continuation port 94 in the small hit game of the latent probability change state (in fact, the high probability game state), it may be configured to notify that it is the high probability game state, When the second big winning opening 91 is activated, the meaning of entering the continuous opening 94 can be strengthened.

  The above is the description of the first embodiment. The game ball that entered the second big winning opening 91 during the big hit game does not enter the continuation port 94 as a rolling result, but the big hit game which has ended by the pseudo small hit game is from the player It will be difficult to identify it as a small hit game. As described above, the notification indicating the high probability gaming state latency is performed both after the end of the big hit game which has ended up to the pseudo small hit game and after the actual small hit game. This configuration can be said to be a configuration capable of proceeding with a sense of expectation in the subsequent game, even if the game ball does not roll so as to be advantageous for the player's profit acquisition during the big hit game.

  A second embodiment will now be described. In the present embodiment, parts constituting the gaming machine and their electrical connections are the same as in the first embodiment. Therefore, the overlapping parts will be described using the first embodiment.

  This embodiment differs from the first embodiment in the opening pattern of the second large winning opening 91 at the time of the small hit game, the operation contents of the distributing blade 93, the kind of the big hit symbol, and the big hit game according to the type. The contents (including the game state after the end of the big hit game and the operation contents of the distributing blade 93 are also included) will be described below with reference to the drawings.

  In this embodiment, as shown in the upper chart of FIG. 21, the second large winning opening 91 is provided with 10 types of small hitting symbols, 1 to 10, small hitting symbols 1 to 5, and small hitting symbols 6 to 10. The small hit operation of is different in content (the opening mode of the second large winning opening 91 is different). Specifically, in the case of small hit symbols 1 to 5, the second large winning opening 91 opens once for 1.2 seconds, which is the same as the first embodiment, and in the case of small hit symbols 6 to 10, 2 large winning opening 91 performs 0.9 seconds of opening twice (0.6 seconds between open). In addition, the operation content of the sorting blade 93 during the small hit game is one kind of the operation pattern 1 described in the first embodiment, but when the game ball enters the second large winning opening 91 during the small hit game The operation content is different from that of the first embodiment.

  The processing content when the second large winning opening 91 is activated at the time of the small hit game will be described using FIG. FIG. 20 is a part of the special game process 2 executed by the main control device 80 in the present embodiment. As described above, what is different from the special game process 1 described in the first embodiment is the control of the distributing blade 93 when the game ball enters the second large winning opening 91 during the small hit game, and the special game is performed. In processing 2, it is determined whether the second count switch 91a has detected the game ball in the control, that is, whether the game ball has entered the second large winning opening 91 (S940) is affirmed determination (S940: yes) The processing content is the small hitting distribution blade operation termination process (S945).

  In the small hitting distributing blade operation end process (S945), a process (returning to the normal closed state) of ending the operation of the distributing blade 93 performing the same operation as the first embodiment from the small hit start is performed. By this control, the sorting blade 93 at the time of the small hit game is the second big prize during the small hit game while performing the same distribution mode as the pseudo small hit round of the pseudo small hit big game from the small hit game start If the game ball enters the opening 91, the game ball returns to the closing state so that the game ball does not enter the continuation opening 94, and if the sorting blade 93 is closed when the game ball enters the second large winning opening 91, The configuration does not change to the open state.

  In the small hit game, even if the game ball enters the continuation port 94, a new round is not started as in the big hit game, so the sorting blade 93 may be controlled so that the game ball does not enter the continuation port 94 Although it is desirable, when the control is performed in response to the start of the small hit game, it will be understood from the state change of the distributing blade 93 that it is a small hit game. Therefore, during the small hit game, until the game ball enters the second big winning opening 91, the state of the distributing wing 93 is made the same as the big hit game, and from the state change of the distributing wing 93 the small hit game and By making it impossible to determine the jackpot game, the game feature of creating a game in the second large winning opening 91 to create the determination is created.

  Next, the type of the jackpot symbol according to the present embodiment and the contents of the jackpot game according to the type will be described with reference to FIG. In the present embodiment, there are seven types of jackpot symbols 1 to 7, and the contents of the jackpot game corresponding to the respective symbols (including the gaming state after the end of the jackpot game) are provided. The big hit game corresponding to the "big hit symbol 1, 2" has the same contents as the big hit game corresponding to the "big hit symbol 1, 2" of the first embodiment, and the big hit game corresponding to the "big hit symbol 7" is a symbol selection Except for the probability, the same contents as the big hit game corresponding to the "big hit symbol 5" of the first embodiment are obtained.

  If "big hit symbol 3" is selected with a probability of 5/100 in the special feature eligibility determination processing 2, the gaming state after the end of the big hit game will be the high probability gaming state until the next big hit, but the second round simulation If the big hit game is ended without entering the game ball into the continuation port 94 during the small hit, the latent notification in FIG. 19 (3) is made without shifting to the open extension state, and the big hit game until the third round If the game continues, the game is in the open extension state until the next big hit after the big hit game is over, and high probability game state notification (probable change mode notification) of FIG. 18 (2) is performed.

  The contents of the big hit game are the same as the small hit game in which the first big winning opening 14 performs an opening operation for 0.2 seconds in the first round, and the second big winning opening 91 is 1/2 in the second round. The opening operation (corresponding to the pseudo small hit operation of the present invention) is performed once every two seconds (refer to the timing chart (opening pattern B) of FIG. 22A), and the second big winning opening 91 is Each round performs an opening operation for up to 28 seconds. Also, the highest round that can be continued will be eight rounds.

  The operation pattern of the distributing blade 93 is the operation pattern 1 in the second round, but after the third round, as shown in the timing chart in the lower part of FIG. An operation pattern 2 in which the open state of seconds is alternately repeated is performed. In this configuration, when the game ball enters the specific area in the pseudo small hit round of “the pseudo small hit big hit game of the present invention, the distribution mode of the sorting means is the pseudo in the next round to shift It is different from "small hit round".

  If "big hit symbol 4" is selected with a probability of 5/100 in the special feature hit / not decision processing 2, the gaming state after the big hit game is the same as when the big hit game corresponding to "big hit symbol 3" is finished The contents of the big hit game are the same as the small hit game in which the first big winning opening 14 performs an opening operation for 0.2 seconds in the first round, and the second big winning opening 91 is 1/2 in the second round. Perform the opening operation (corresponding to the pseudo small hitting operation of the present invention) of 0.9 seconds twice (0.6 seconds between the opening) (refer to the timing chart (opening pattern C) of FIG. 22 (b)), After the round, the second large winning opening 91 performs an opening operation for up to 28 seconds in any round. Also, the highest round that can be continued will be 4 rounds. The operation pattern of the distribution blade 93 also has the same content as the big hit game corresponding to the "big hit symbol 3"

  The "big hit symbols 5, 6" selected with a probability of 5/100 in the special feature hit / fail judgment processing 2 is a big hit game with the maximum number of continuations of 2 times, and the first big winning opening 14 is 0.2 for the first round. Open the second, the second round the second big winning opening 91 corresponds to the "big hit symbol 5" In the big hit game 1.2 seconds open (opening pattern B), corresponding to "big hit symbol 6" In the big hit game, an opening of 0.9 seconds is performed twice (opening pattern C). In addition, after the big hit game end, it moves to high probability game state until the next big hit, but does not shift to time saving state (opening extension state), after the big hit game ends it does the latent information in Figure 19 (3). Therefore, in this big hit game, even if the gaming ball that entered the second big winning opening 91 in the second round enters the continuation port 94, it does not shift to the next round, and the hiding notification is done in the state where the big hit game is over. Because it is performed, it becomes more difficult to determine the small hit game.

  The above is the description of the embodiment. As a big hit game, the opening pattern of the big winning opening where the second big winning opening 12 only performs the pseudo small hit operation after the first big winning opening 14 opens 0.2 seconds, only the second embodiment (big hit symbol 5, Although provided in 6), also in the first embodiment, an open pattern of maximum open number of 2 times to end in the pseudo small hit operation may be provided. In that case, even if the game ball enters the continuation port 94 at the time of the small hit game, it does not notify that it is the normal mode, and may be the "latency mode" (FIG. 19 (3)).

  In the small hit game in the second embodiment and the simulated small hit operation performed in the second round of the big hit game corresponding to "big hit symbols 3, 4, 5, 6", a plurality of opening patterns of the second big winning opening 91 are provided Although the ball entry rate to the continuation port 91 was changed by (opening patterns B and C), the opening pattern of the second large winning opening 91 is only one type, and by providing a plurality of operation patterns of the distributing blade 93 It is good also as composition which changes the ball entering rate to continuation mouth 94.

  In the second embodiment, when the game ball enters the second large winning opening 91 during the small hit game, the sorting blade 93 changes to a closed state in which the game ball does not enter the continuation port 94. It is reported that it is a small hit game and the latent notification is not made, but if you enter the second big winning opening 91 in the small hit game, the operation of the distributing blade 93 is not changed, the latent notification It is also possible to create a configuration in which the player does not play a game or a configuration informing that it was a small hit game, and also in this case, the game characteristic of entering a game into the second large winning opening 91 opened for a short period can be created.

  Also in the first embodiment, when the game ball entering the second large winning opening 91 during the small hitting game enters the continuing opening 94, the opening of the second large winning opening 91 is a small hitting game. It is good also as composition which reports that it was, and the effect enters the game in the 2nd big winning opening 91 in order to decide whether it is the small hitting game or the pseudo small hitting operation which shifts to high probability game state In addition, as a result of the rolling, it is possible to create the playability that the continuation port 94 has to be entered.

  In the first and second embodiments, the first large winning opening 14 not provided with the continuation opening 94 is provided and operated before the round in which the second large winning opening 91 is activated, but the first large winning opening 14 is not provided and continued A configuration in which a big hit game is performed only with the second large winning opening 91 having the opening 94 is also considered, and the same effect as the pachinko gaming machine of the embodiment is exhibited.

  Also, in the case of providing two large winning openings of the first large winning opening 14 and the second large winning opening 81, even if the operation content of the small hit game and the operation content of the big hit game up to the pseudo small hit operation are completely the same. Well, specifically, when the operation content of the small hit game is matched to the big hit game, the second big winning opening 91 is 1 after the first big winning opening 14 performs 0.2 seconds as a small hitting game. The configuration may be such that opening for 2 seconds is performed, or if the operation content of the big hit game up to the pseudo small hit operation is matched to the small hit game, the second large winning opening is not performed. A big hit game may be provided in which only the second large winning opening 91 operates with the pseudo small hit operation as the first round.

  Further, in the first and second embodiments, in the big hit game in which the second large winning opening 91 performs a pseudo small hit operation, the timing when the first large winning opening 14 performs an extremely short period of 0.2 seconds in the first round. In the game, the diverting blade 93 performs a pseudo-operation that is not related to the guidance of the game ball and makes the eye look away from the operation of the first large winning opening 14 and one of the second large winning opening 91 that becomes the second round. Although the effect was made to appear as if the second operation was a small hit game, this configuration has a first large winning opening without a specific area and a second large winning opening with a specific area, The control hand operates the first large winning opening before operating the second large winning opening, and distributes the game ball to the specific area during the operation period of the first large winning opening. It becomes the structure which changes an aspect.

  As described above, according to the ball and ball game machine of the present invention, a small hit game and a big hit game big win in a gaming machine provided with a continuous slot and a sorting device for gaming balls to the continuous slot in the big prize slot. The same opening mode is executed by opening the mouth, and when it is a big hit, by shifting to the next round on the condition that the ball is entered into the continuing slot, the rolling result of the gaming ball entered into the big winning prize player is the player Even if it does not agree with the meaning of the above, it is possible to derive new gameplay from the situation. Therefore, the present invention can be applied to a ball game machine having a continuous opening and a sorting device for gaming balls to the continuous opening in the special winning opening.
