When the sub-integrated CPU 42 receives a signal (such as various commands as will be described later) related to the big hit lottery from the main control board 31 as will be described later, the sub-integrated CPU 42 controls each control device in accordance with the content, and the speaker 14 and lamp The operation of the member 15 and the display operation of the decorative symbols on the effect display unit 6 are controlled. The sub-integrated CPU 42 is also connected to the hold display unit 62 for displaying the number of hold information via the interface 45. The hold display section 62 may be provided outside the game area 16, or may be provided in the game area 16 or the effect display section 6.

  In addition, the storage means 43 includes a symbol storage area (not shown) for storing decorative symbols to be displayed on the effect display unit 6, a detailed variation display mode of the decorative symbols, a character effect using a character animation, and the like. A variation pattern storage area 46 storing a plurality of detailed variation patterns is provided, and various detailed variation patterns are stored in association with basic variation patterns determined by the main control board 31 as shown in FIG. ing.

Hereinafter, basic game operations in the pachinko machine 1 will be briefly described.
First, in the pachinko machine 1, when a game ball wins the start winning opening 19 or the start winning combination 17, the main CPU 32 detects the win (satisfaction of predetermined conditions). Then, the main CPU 32 pays out a predetermined number (for example, three) of game balls as prize balls, acquires one numerical value from each of the c counter, d counter, and e counter at the timing of winning detection, and further holds the hold information. It is confirmed whether or not the number of pending information stored in the storage area 36 has reached the maximum value. If the number of pending information has already reached the maximum value, the acquired numerical values from the c counter, d counter, and e counter are deleted without being stored. On the other hand, if the maximum value has not been reached, the numerical values obtained from the c counter, d counter, and e counter are stored in the holding information storage area 36, and the jackpot determination table set for each gaming state is referred to. The numerical value acquired from the c counter this time is a predetermined “big hit value (for example,“ 0 ”,“ 100 ”,“ 200 ”,“ 300 ”,“ 400 ”,“ 500 ”,“ 600 ”in the normal big hit determination table) ”,“ 700 ”,“ 800 ”, and“ 900 ”. In the jackpot determination table in the high probability state,“ 0 ”,“ 100 ”,“ 200 ”,“ 300 ”,“ 400 ” , “500”, “600”, “700”, “800”, “900”, “1000”) (that is, the result of the jackpot lottery is so-called “large”). Or whether or not one of the special special gaming state and the non-specific special gaming state is caused after the fixed display of the symbol related to the hold information). In this case, what happens to the basic variation pattern corresponding to the value obtained from the e-counter based on the type of “big hit” based on the value obtained from the d-counter and the result of the jackpot lottery? Is determined as a pre-reading determination in advance of the jackpot determination described later. Further, the main CPU 32 creates schedule information including the result of the prefetch determination and the number of pieces of hold information, and transmits the schedule information to the sub integrated CPU 42.

  Further, the main CPU 32 always checks whether the symbol is variably displayed in the special symbol display unit 60 or whether the symbol is fixedly displayed. If the symbol is fixedly displayed, the main CPU 32 confirms whether there is pending information. Then, if there is holding information, the holding information with the highest priority to be digested (here, the holding information stored earlier) is transferred to the jackpot determination storage area 37 and the following jackpot determination is executed for the holding information. To do. That is, with reference to the jackpot determination table corresponding to the gaming state at the time when the hold information is transferred to the jackpot determination storage area 37, the numerical value acquired from the c counter related to the hold information is the predetermined “bonus value”. Whether or not the result of the jackpot lottery is “big hit” or “out”. Further, if the result of the jackpot lottery is “big jackpot” (the value obtained from the c counter is “big jackpot value”), the value obtained from the d counter is associated with the jackpot type determination table shown in FIG. ”And the basic fluctuation pattern determination table shown in FIG. 6B is used to read the basic fluctuation pattern corresponding to the numerical value acquired from the e counter (that is, the basic fluctuation pattern including the fluctuation time of the symbol is read out). decide). On the other hand, if the result of the big hit lottery is “out” (the value obtained from the c counter is a value other than the “big hit value”), the basic variation pattern determination table shown in FIG. The basic variation pattern corresponding to the acquired numerical value is read out (that is, the basic variation pattern including the variation time of the symbol is determined). In this embodiment, since the jackpot determination random number and the jackpot type determination random number are separate, the determination display result of the symbol is determined in combination with the determination of the result of the jackpot lottery and the determination of the type of “big hit” Will do.

  After that, the main CPU 32 includes information indicating the result of the jackpot lottery (whether it is a “hit” or “out”), the type of the jackpot, and the type of the basic variation pattern that has been read out. While creating a start command, the start command is transmitted to the sub-integrated CPU 42. Further, the special symbol is changed in a predetermined manner in the special symbol display unit 60, and the time measurement by the timer 34 is started. Then, when the variation time corresponding to the read basic variation pattern has elapsed, the result of the jackpot lottery, and if it is “big jackpot”, the special symbol corresponding to the type is fixedly displayed, and a stop command including a stop signal Is transmitted to the sub-integrated CPU 42. Note that the special symbol to be confirmed and displayed is, for example, “big jackpot”, and when the numerical value acquired from the d counter is “0” to “3”, “non-specific big jackpot” is designated as a non-specific jackpot special symbol. “2” which is a fixed display mode (non-specific fixed display mode) is fixedly displayed. In addition, when the jackpot is “4” and the value acquired from the d counter is “4”, it is one of the special jackpot special symbol fixed display modes (specific fixed display modes) as “first specific jackpot”. “3”, which is one of the special jackpot special symbol fixed display modes as “second specific jackpot” when “1” is “big jackpot” and the numerical value acquired from the d counter is “5”. In the case of “big jackpot” and the value acquired from the d counter is “6”, “5”, which is one of the special jackpot special symbol fixed display forms as “third specific big jackpot”, “ "7", which is one of the special jackpot special symbol fixed display modes as "fourth specific jackpot" when the value obtained from the d counter is "7" to "9" Confirm display. On the other hand, if it is “off”, it is confirmed and displayed with “−”.

  Further, if the result of the big win lottery is “big hit”, the main CPU 32 displays a start demonstration for notifying the start of the big win state, which is a special gaming state, after confirming the special symbol display, the big winning attacker 18a and the V winning attacker 18b When a game ball is awarded to the opened big winning attacker 18a and the V winning attacker 18b by generating a jackpot state consisting of an intermittent opening of a predetermined number of times and an end demo for notifying the end of the jackpot state, More game balls (for example, 10) are paid out as prize balls as compared to the case where the winning prize 17 is won. If the type of “big win” is “non-specific big hit”, the big winning attacker 18a is opened until the opening time reaches 30 seconds or until eight game balls are won. After repeating this 8 times intermittently, the first special game in which the V winning attacker 18b is opened only once for 0.5 seconds (second opening time, which is shorter than the game ball firing interval). A state (non-specific special game state) is generated. In addition, if the type of “big jackpot” is any one of “first specific jackpot”, “second special jackpot”, “third specific jackpot”, and “fourth specific jackpot”, it will be big until the above condition is satisfied. After repeating the opening of the winning attacker 18a seven times intermittently, the V winning attacker 18b is either until the opening time reaches 30 seconds (first opening time) or until eight game balls are won. A second special game state (a specific special game state) in which the opening operation is performed until the condition is satisfied is caused. Therefore, when the second special gaming state occurs, it is possible to win the gaming ball to the V winning attacker 18b with a relatively high probability, while when the first special gaming state occurs, the gaming ball is won to the V winning attacker 18b. Probability is very low.

  Further, when the main CPU 32 detects the passing of the special area of the game ball won to the V winning attacker 18b during the big hit state, after the big hit state is finished, the start winning prize is displayed until the special symbol is confirmed and displayed a specific number of times. The support state (specific game state) in which 17 is likely to be in an open state and the start winning combination 17 is in an open state for a long time is caused. Furthermore, after the jackpot status ends, the probability of the jackpot lottery result being a “big hit” is improved until the jackpot lottery results in the next jackpot judgment is “big hit” (regardless of the type). Raise it. Therefore, when the second special gaming state occurs, the support state and the high probability state occur after the jackpot state ends with a high probability. In addition, even if the first special gaming state has occurred, if a game ball wins the V winning attacker 18b and passes through the special area even though there is an extremely low probability, the support state and the high probability state are entered after the end of the jackpot state. To occur.

  The specific number of times in the support state differs depending on which “big hit” is caused by the big hit state (that is, the type of “big hit”). Support status), “second specific jackpot” is 60 times (second support status), and “third specific jackpot” is 90 times (third support status). On the other hand, when it is “fourth specific jackpot”, the result of the jackpot lottery in the next jackpot determination becomes “big jackpot” (regardless of the type) (fourth support state). When the main CPU 32 causes any one of the first support state, the second support state, and the third support state to occur, the fixed display number of special symbols after the jackpot state ends is the specified number of times. When is reached, the support state is terminated. In addition, after the end of the jackpot state due to the “first specific jackpot”, “second specific jackpot”, and “third specific jackpot”, even if the support state ends, the high probability state will continue. A situation can occur. In addition, although it is an extremely low probability, the game ball wins the V winning attacker 18b during the first special game state in spite of the “non-special jackpot”, and the passing of the special area of the game ball is detected. If this happens, the first support state is caused to occur. Further, in the next jackpot determination in the case of “fourth specific jackpot”, the matter that the result of the jackpot lottery becomes “jackpot” may be realized by setting the specific number of times to 10,000.

  On the other hand, if, for example, the first special gaming state occurs, the game ball does not win the V winning attacker 18b during the big hit state (that is, if the passing of the special area of the game ball is not detected during the special gaming state), After completion of the state, the support state and the high probability state are not generated, but the normal state is generated. Therefore, even if the second special gaming state has occurred, if the game ball does not win the V winning attacker 18b during the jackpot state, the high probability state will not be generated after the jackpot state ends.

  The opening / closing operation of the start winning combination 17 is also controlled by the main CPU 32, and when the game ball passes through the gate member 20, the passage is detected by the main CPU 32. Then, the main CPU 32 acquires one numerical value from the a counter at the timing of passage detection (performs an open lottery), and the acquired numerical value from the a counter is a predetermined “open numerical value (for example, a support state has occurred. 10 types of “0” to “9”, and only one type of “0” if the support state has not occurred) is determined. If it is “open value”, that is, if the result of the open lottery is “winning”, the start winning combination 17 is operated from the closed state to the open state in a predetermined manner. At this time, if the support state occurs, for example, a special opening operation such as a mode in which the open state is intermittently repeated three times over a longer time (2 seconds) than when the support state does not occur The start winning combination 17 is operated in a manner. In addition, if the support state does not occur, for example, the engine is started in a normal opening operation mode in which, for example, it is opened only once for a shorter time (0.2 seconds) than when the support state occurs. The winning combination 17 is activated. On the other hand, if the numerical value acquired from the a counter is not “open numerical value”, that is, if the result of the open lottery is “off”, the start winning prize 17 is not operated in the closed state. Further, when the game ball passes through the gate member 20 while the start winning combination 17 is in operation or the like, the numerical value of the a counter acquired at the passing timing is stored in the storage means 33 in the same manner as the hold information. At the same time, the confirmation of the result of the open lottery is performed in the stored order every time the operation of the start winning prize 17 is completed.

  On the other hand, when receiving the schedule information, the sub integration CPU 42 stores the schedule information in the schedule information storage area 47 and increases the number of the hold information by 1 in the hold display unit 62. In addition, when the start command is received, the number of the hold information is decreased by 1 in the hold display unit 62, and the schedule information corresponding to the start command is read from the schedule information storage area 47, and if the game state is the support state, The control related to the schedule information as described later is executed. Furthermore, the display mode of the final symbol to be finalized according to the information related to the result of the jackpot lottery included in the start command and the type of “big jackpot” is determined, and the information related to the basic variation pattern is supported. The detailed variation pattern to be performed is read out from the variation pattern storage area 46, and the decorative design on the effect display unit 6 is variably displayed according to the read detailed variation pattern while being timed by the timer 44. Then, with the reception of the stop command, the decorative design is displayed on the effect display unit 6 in the determined display mode. That is, if the result of the jackpot lottery is “big jackpot” and the type is “fourth specific jackpot”, the first specific jackpot decorative symbol display mode (for example, “7 · 7.7 ”), and if the result of the jackpot lottery is“ big jackpot ”and the type is“ first specific jackpot ”to“ third specific jackpot ”, the same second special decorative design is 3 The second specific jackpot decorative symbol display mode (for example, “5 · 5 · 5”, “9 · 9 · 9”, etc.) arranged side by side is fixedly displayed. In addition, if the result of the jackpot lottery is “big jackpot” and the type is “non-special jackpot”, the non-special jackpot decoration in which three identical decorative symbols other than the first special decorative symbol and the second special decorative symbol are arranged. The symbol display mode (for example, “2, 2, 2”) is fixedly displayed. Further, when the result of the big hit lottery is “out”, at least one of the three decorative symbols is confirmed and displayed in a different out decorative symbol display mode (for example, “1, 2, 3”) different from the other two decorative symbols. Let

  Further, the sub-integrated CPU 42 so-called a so-called big hit state, for example, during the start demonstration, notifies the start of the big hit state using the effect display unit 6 and so-called a right-handed space SR. Inform the player to “right-hand”. Further, when the opening of the big prize attacker 18a is started, the display effect on the effect display unit 6 corresponding to the type of “big hit” or the like is read from the storage means 43, and the display operation on the effect display unit 6 is controlled. To do. Furthermore, during the end demonstration, the effect display unit 6 is used to notify the player that the big hit state will end. In addition, the sub-integrated CPU 42 reads the display effect on the effect display unit 6 unique to the support state from the storage unit 43 during the support state occurrence, and controls the display operation on the effect display unit 6. Note that the sub-integrated CPU 42 ends the display effect peculiar to the support state with the end of the support state regardless of whether or not the high probability state occurs, stops the “right-handed”, and enters the left-handed space SL. The player is notified using the effect display unit 6 so as to hit the game ball, and is returned to the normal display effect as described above. Further, even when the support state does not occur after the end of the big hit state, the player is notified using the effect display unit 6 so as to stop the “right hit” and hit the game ball into the left hit space SL. Further, the sub-integrated CPU 42 grasps the type of support state (that is, the specific number of times) that occurs after the jackpot state ends based on the start command in which the jackpot lottery result is “big jackpot”, and the built-in counting means Thus, it is possible to determine the number of remaining fixed display times until the specific number is reached.

  Here, the game by the player on the pachinko machine 1 will be described along a general flow. The player starts the game from a state where the support state does not occur, and operates the handle 9 to rotate. Then, the launching device 10 is operated, and a game ball is driven into the game area 16 through the launch passage 13, and first, the left-handed space SL is caused to flow down to aim for winning of the game ball at the start winning opening 19. Then, the result of the jackpot lottery with the winning game balls becomes “big hit”, and when the big hit state occurs, the “right hit” is made to flow down the right-handed space SR, and the big win attacker 18a and the V winning are intermittently established. Aiming to win a game ball to the attacker 18b. In addition, if the support state occurs after the jackpot state is finished, “right-handed” is continued during the occurrence of the support state, and the game ball passes to the gate member 20 and is frequently opened in the support state. Aiming to win a game ball in the starting winning combination 17 that is in a state. Then, when the support state is ended without the result of the big hit lottery being “big hit”, the game returns to the above-mentioned game where the “right hit” is stopped and the left hit space SL is made to flow down. In addition, after the big hit state is finished, even when the support state does not occur, the game is returned to the above-described game where the “right-handed” is stopped and the left-handed space SL is allowed to flow down.

(Explanation about the display effect using the display body)
Here, a display effect using the first display body 73a, the second display body 73b, and the third display body 73c in the support state, which is a main part of the present invention, will be described with reference to FIGS.
In the storage means 43 of the sub-control device 40, a specific effect storage for storing a specific decorative pattern 71, a specific background display 72, a first display body 73a, a second display body 73b, a third display body 73c, etc. used in the support state. Region 48 is provided. Then, when the support state occurs, the sub-integrated CPU 42, as shown in FIG. 8, displays the background display on the effect display unit 6 as the specific background display 72 and the decorative symbols as the specific decorative symbols 71, 71,. Switch. Further, a specific display area 74 is formed in the lower portion of the effect display unit 6, and a specific number (10 in this case) of the first display bodies 73a, 73a,. . Furthermore, a digest display area 75 for executing an effect as described later is formed on the left side of the first display body 73a located at the leftmost end in the lower left corner of the effect display unit 6.

  Further, when the sub integrated CPU 42 receives the schedule information from the main CPU 32 in the support state, the sub integrated CPU 42 moves from the specific display area 74 to the digest display area 75 at the start of variation of the specific decorative symbols 71, 71,. And whether or not to change the specific first display body 73a to the second display body 73b. This determination is performed by obtaining a numerical value from a random number similar to the jackpot lottery, and the storage means 43 loop counts between 0 and 10 (11 ways) at a high speed similarly to the c counter used for the jackpot lottery. An f counter (first effect determination random number) and a g counter (second effect determination random number) are incorporated. Then, each time the schedule information is received, the sub-integrated CPU 42 acquires numerical values from the f counter and the g counter, and stores the numerical values acquired from the f counter and the g counter in the schedule information storage area 47 together with the schedule information. .

  At this time, with reference to the display body change determination table as shown in FIG. 9B, a specific first is determined based on the numerical value obtained from the g counter included in the schedule information and the information related to the basic variation pattern. It is determined whether to change the display body 73a to the second display body 73b. That is, the basic fluctuation pattern related to the schedule information is A or B, the basic fluctuation pattern is C, the obtained numerical value from the g counter is 0 to 9, the basic fluctuation pattern is D, and obtained from the g counter When the numerical value is any of 0 to 6, the control of changing the first display body 73a to the second display body 73b is not executed. On the other hand, the basic fluctuation pattern is C and the obtained numerical value from the g counter is 10, the basic fluctuation pattern is D and the obtained numerical value from the g counter is 7 to 10 (second specification) The second specific basic variation pattern that satisfies the condition and has a higher probability of being selected than the case of “out” when the basic variation pattern in the prefetch determination is “big hit” as a result of the big hit lottery And the basic variation pattern C or D is satisfied, and the numerical value obtained from the second effect determination random number is the second specific numerical value), and is stored in the schedule information storage area 47 including itself. The total number of displays is calculated based on the numerical values acquired from the f counter related to each schedule information, and displayed in the specific display area 74. 1 display body 73a, to vary the first display body 73a from the left of a total digestion several eyes of 73a · · to the second indicia 73b. Therefore, for example, if the total digestion number is 2 (that is, one schedule information is already stored when storing itself, and both the schedule information already stored and the display body digest number are both 1). In this case, as shown in FIG. 10A, the second first display body 73a from the left is changed to the second display body 73b. Further, when the total digestion number is 7 (that is, two schedule information has already been stored when storing itself, and the display is in one of the two schedule information already stored or one of them) When the digestion number of the body is 5, as shown in FIG. 10B, the seventh first display body 73a from the left is changed to the second display body 73b. If the total digestion number exceeds the specific number, even if the second specific condition is satisfied, control such as changing to the second display body 73b is not immediately executed, and the total digestion number is specified. The timing is changed to the second display body 73b at a timing that is less than a few. The first display body 73a and the second display body 73b have the same shape and size but are different in color.

  Further, when the sub-integration CPU 42 reads the schedule information by receiving the start command, the sub-integration CPU 42 refers to the digest number determination table as shown in FIG. 9A and obtains a numerical value obtained from the f counter included in the schedule information, And, based on the information related to the basic variation pattern, it is digested from the specific display area 74 with the start of the variation of the specific decorative symbols 71, 71,... In response to the reception of the start command (the variation variation start in the special symbol display unit 60). The number of display bodies 73a to be moved to the display area 75 is determined. That is, the basic fluctuation pattern related to the schedule information is A or B, the basic fluctuation pattern is C, and the obtained numerical value from 0 to 9 is 0, the basic fluctuation pattern is D and the obtained from the f counter If the numerical value is any one of 0 to 6, as shown in FIG. 11A, when the first display body 73a (the second display body 73b has been changed), the second display body The entire first display bodies 73a, 73a,... Are slid to the left so that 73b) moves from the specific display area 74 to the digest display area 75. Also, one new first display body 73a is added to the right side of the first display bodies 73a, 73a,. On the other hand, the basic fluctuation pattern is C and the obtained numerical value from the f counter is 10, the basic fluctuation pattern is D and the obtained numerical value from the f counter is 7 to 10 (first identification Basic that is a specific basic variation pattern that satisfies the condition and has a high probability of being selected when compared to the case of “out” when the basic variation pattern in the prefetch determination is “big hit” as a result of the big hit lottery When the condition that the variation pattern C or D is satisfied is satisfied, and the numerical value obtained from the first effect determination random number is the first specific numerical value), as shown in FIG. .. (When the fifth first display body 73a is changed to the second display body 73b, four first display bodies 73a, 73a,... And one second display body are displayed. Body 73b) is a specific display area 4 so as to continuously move the digestive display area 75 from sliding first display body 73a, the entire 73a · · column to the left. Further, five new first display bodies 73a, 73a,... Are continuously added to the right side of the first display bodies 73a, 73a,. The first display body 73a and the second display body 73b that have moved from the specific display area 74 to the digest display area 75 by this slide are displaying the specific decorative symbols 71, 71,. Is erased from the digest display area 75 in a predetermined digest mode (for example, an effect that disappears from the effect display unit 6). In addition, as a timing which moves the 1st display body 73a from the specific display area 74 to the digest display area 75, for example, immediately after the start of the fluctuation of the specific decorative patterns 71, 71,. It can be considered that 71...

  In addition, the sub-integrated CPU 42 notifies the player using the third display body 73c that the number of fixed display of the special symbol is reaching a specific number or a specific stage number in the support state. Explaining the control related to this effect, the sub-integration CPU 42 confirms the special symbol based on the remaining number of fixed displays until reaching the specific number of times or the specific number of stages and the schedule information stored in the schedule information storage area 47. The number of the first display bodies 73a and the second display bodies 73b to be slid before the change of the specific decorative symbols 71, 71,... The total digestion number of the body) is always calculated. When adding a display object to the specific display area 74, if the total number of digests is 9 or less, the number of specific decorative symbols 71, 71,. A third display body 73c having a different color and shape from the first display body 73a and the second display body 73b is added to the specific display area 74 as a display body to be moved from the specific display area 74 to the digestion display area 75 at the start of fluctuation. . In addition, after the third display body 73c is added to the specific display area 74, the support state continues until the third display body 73c is moved from the specific display area 74 to the digest display area 75. However, the first display body 73a is not added to the specific display area 74. Further, after the third display body 73c is added to the specific display area 74, the numerical values from the f counter and the g counter are not acquired with the reception of the schedule information, or the numerical values acquired from the f counter and the g counter. The first display body 73a is changed to the second display body 73b or the five first display bodies 73a, 73a,... Are moved to the digestion display area 75 at a time by not executing the control based on the above. Such a production is not executed.

  Here, it will be specifically described what kind of effect is actually produced by the control of displaying the third display body 73c. First, considering the case where the first support state with the specific number of times 30 has occurred, the specific number of steps is not set in the first support state, and the third display body 73c is in a situation where the specific number of times is being reached. Will be displayed. And when the change of the specific decorative symbols 71, 71,... In which the number of fixed display times of the special symbol is 20th is started, a new display body is naturally added to the specific display region 74. If there is no schedule information for performing an effect to move the five first display bodies 73a, 73a,... To the digestion display area 75 at a time as the schedule information, the third display is shown as the tenth display body. A body 73c is newly added to the specific display area 74 (FIG. 12A). On the other hand, when the variation of the specific decorative symbols 71, 71,... In which the number of final display of the special symbol is 20th is started, the schedule information corresponding to the 22nd number of final display is already stored. If the effect of moving the five first display bodies 73a, 73a,... To the digest display area 75 is executed, the special decorative symbols 71, 71,. During the change of *, one first display body 73a is added. In addition, one first display body 73a is added even during the change of the specific decorative design 71, 71,... In which the special symbol has been confirmed to be displayed 21 times, and five first display bodies 73a, 73a,.・ When the specific decorative symbols 71, 71... In which the specific number of display times to move the digest display area 75 is the 22nd is changed, normally five first display bodies 73 a, 73 a. Are two first display bodies 73a and 73a and one third display body 73c in the order of the first first display body 73a, the second first display body 73a, and the third display body 73c. to add. That is, seven first display bodies 73a, 73a,... And one third display body 73c are displayed in the specific display area 74. Further, after the display of the third display body 73c, the first display body 73a displayed in the specific display area 74 is digested as the number of fixed display times of special symbols increases, but after the third display body 73c. A new display body is not added (FIG. 12B). Then, with the start of the variation of the specific decorative symbols 71, 71,... In which the number of final display of the special symbol is the specific number of times, the third display body 73c is moved to the digestion display area 75 to be erased, If the result of the lottery is “out”, the first support state is terminated after the special symbol and the decorative symbol are confirmed and displayed, and the sub-integrated CPU 42 normally uses the background display and the decorative symbol on the effect display unit 6 respectively. Return to what you want.

  In the second support state where the specific number of times is 60, the fixed display number 30 is set as the specific number of steps, and in the third support state where the specific number of times is 90, the fixed display times 30 and 60th. Is set as the specific number of steps. Furthermore, in the fourth support state, the final display counts 30th, 60th, and 90th are set as the specific number of steps, and the specific count is not set (or set to 10,000). And in the 2nd support state, the 3rd support state, and the 4th support state, the 3rd display object 73c is displayed also in the situation where the fixed display frequency | count of a special symbol is reaching the specific step number. The effects after the addition of the third display body 73c and the addition of the third display body 73c are the same as the effects when the specific number of times is reached. However, if the number of specific stages is not the specific number of times, the support state continues after the specific number of stages, so that the variation of the specific decorative symbols 71, 71. Accordingly, after the third display body 73c is moved to the digest display area 75, ten new first display bodies 73a, 73a,... Are added to the specific display area 74 while the specific decorative symbols 71, 71,. And the execution of the control related to the change in the number of digests and the display by the acquisition of random numbers from the f counter and the g counter is resumed. In addition, in the second support state and the third support state, even when the fixed display count of the special symbol is reaching a specific number of times, the effect using the third display body 73c that is the same as the first support state is naturally executed. To do.

(Effects of the pachinko machine of this embodiment)
According to the pachinko machine 1 having the above-described configuration, the end time of the support state is notified using a display body such as the first display body 73a, the second display body 73b, and the third display body 73c. In addition to displaying a display body equivalent to the number of on-hold display bodies more than the number of suspensions, and using the display body to notify the end time of the specific gaming state, to achieve an effect that makes the player feel fresh It can be a pachinko machine with high gaming characteristics.
In addition, the support state has a plurality of support states with different specific times, and in a support state with a relatively high specific number of times, the specific number of support states with a specific number of times smaller than itself is set as the specific stage number. The third display 73c is used for the situation that has reached the specific number of stages, and the same effect as the situation that has reached the specific number of times is performed. Therefore, for the player, when the third display body 73c moves to the digestion display area 75, it is possible to play with a very high interest in whether or not the support state is ended, and the game performance is further increased. Improvements can be made.

Further, the number of first display bodies 73a to be moved to the digest display area 75 at a time is selectively determined by lottery with the start of fluctuation of the specific decorative symbols 71, 71,... In response to reception of the start command from the main CPU 32. In addition, if the lottery result is related to the basic variation pattern, and the jackpot lottery result is a basic variation pattern that is highly likely to be a “big hit”, a relatively large number of first display bodies 73a, 73a,. Can be selected to move to the digest display area 75 at a time. Therefore, it is possible to provide the player with a new display effect that the number of digests of the first display body 73a accompanying the start of variation of the specific decorative symbols 71, 71,. Since the digestion number and the basic variation pattern are associated, the player can play with interest in the digestion number of the first display body 73a accompanying the start of variation of the specific decorative symbols 71, 71,. It is highly playable.
In addition, when the schedule information is received from the main CPU 32, whether or not to change the specific first display body 73a to the second display body 73b is determined by lottery, and the lottery result is associated with the basic variation pattern. If the result of the big win lottery is a basic variation pattern that is highly likely to be a “big hit”, an effect of changing the first display body 73a to the second display body 73b can be selected. Therefore, the player can play the game with an interest in whether or not the first display body 73a changes to the second display body 73b in accordance with the winning of the game ball to the starting winning combination 17, and the game is extremely playable. high.

(Explanation of examples of changing display effects using display objects)
Moreover, the example of a change regarding the display effect using the 1st display body 73a etc. in a support state is demonstrated based on FIGS. In addition, the same code | symbol is used about the same component as the said form.
Also in this modified example, when the support state occurs, as shown in FIG. 13, the sub-integrated CPU 42 sets the background display on the effect display unit 6 to the specific background display 72 and the decorative symbols to the specific decorative symbols 71 and 71. Switch to each. Further, a specific display area 74 is formed in the lower portion of the effect display unit 6, and a specific number (10 in this case) of the first display bodies 73a, 73a,. . Furthermore, the digest display area 75 is formed on the left side of the first display body 73a located at the leftmost end in the lower left corner of the effect display section 6.

  In addition, when receiving the schedule information from the main CPU 32 in the support state, the sub-integrated CPU 42 determines whether or not to change the specific first display body 73a to the second display body 73b. This determination is performed by obtaining a numerical value from a random number similar to the jackpot lottery, and the storage means 43 loop counts between 0 and 10 (11 ways) at a high speed similarly to the c counter used for the jackpot lottery. An i-counter (production determining random number) is incorporated. Then, each time the schedule information is received, the sub-integrated CPU 42 acquires a numerical value from the i counter, and stores the numerical value acquired from the i counter in the schedule information storage area 47 by including it in the schedule information.

  At this time, with reference to the display body change determination table as shown in FIG. 14, the specific first display body 73a is determined based on the numerical value obtained from the i counter included in the schedule information and the information related to the basic variation pattern. Is determined to be changed to the second display body 73b. That is, the basic fluctuation pattern related to the schedule information is A or B, the basic fluctuation pattern is C, the obtained numerical value from the i counter is 0 to 9, the basic fluctuation pattern is D, and the obtained from the i counter When the numerical value is any of 0 to 6, the control of changing the first display body 73a to the second display body 73b is not executed. On the other hand, the basic fluctuation pattern is C and the obtained numerical value from the i counter is 10, the basic fluctuation pattern is D and the obtained numerical value from the i counter is 7 to 10 (in the specific condition) A basic fluctuation pattern that is a specific basic fluctuation pattern that is satisfactory and has a high probability of being selected when compared to the case of “out” when the basic fluctuation pattern in the prefetch determination is “big hit” as a result of the big hit lottery C or D is satisfied, and the numerical value acquired from the random number for determining the production is a specific numerical value), and the number of pending information corresponding to the scheduled information stored this time is confirmed Then, from the left, the first display body 73a that is several pieces of the hold information is changed to the second display body 73b. Therefore, when the schedule information stored this time corresponds to the second hold information, the second first display body 73a from the left is changed to the second display body 73b as shown in FIG. Let If the schedule information stored this time corresponds to the fourth hold information, the fourth first display body 73a from the left changes to the second display body 73b as shown in FIG. 15B. Let

  Further, when the sub-integrated CPU 42 reads the schedule information by receiving the start command, as shown in FIG. 16, when the sub-integrated CPU 42 changes to one first display body 73a (second display body 73b, the second display thereof is displayed. The first display bodies 73a, 73a,... Are slid to the left so that the body 73b) moves from the specific display area 74 to the digest display area 75. Also, one new first display body 73a is added to the right side of the first display bodies 73a, 73a,. The first display body 73a and the second display body 73b that have moved from the specific display area 74 to the digest display area 75 by this slide are displaying the specific decorative symbols 71, 71,. Is erased from the digest display area 75 in a predetermined digest mode (for example, an effect that disappears from the effect display unit 6). In addition, as a timing which moves the 1st display body 73a from the specific display area 74 to the digest display area 75, for example, immediately after the start of the fluctuation of the specific decorative patterns 71, 71,. It can be considered that 71...

  In addition, the sub-integrated CPU 42 newly confirms that the number of fixed display times of the special symbol has reached a specific number in the support state, as the first display body 73a (which may be the second display body 73b) is digested. The player is notified in such a manner that the first display body 73a is not added. That is, the sub-integrated CPU 42 sets the first display body 73a as the special symbol variation starts when the remaining fixed display count is less than the specific count based on the remaining fixed display count until the specific count is reached. Although the display is moved to the digest display area 75 and the remaining first display bodies 73a, 73a,... Are slid to the left, no new first display body 73a is added to the specific display area 74. Therefore, for example, when the special symbol starts to change with the remaining number of fixed display times being 10, the one first display body 73a is moved to the digestion display area 75 in accordance with the start of the change, and the nine first Although the display bodies 73a, 73a,... Are slid leftward, no new first display body 73a is added to the right side of the first display bodies 73a, 73a,... (FIG. 17A). Therefore, when the special symbol starts to change with the remaining number of fixed display times being 3, the one first display body 73a is moved to the digest display area 75 in accordance with the start of the change. As shown in b), only the remaining two first display bodies 73a and 73a are displayed in the specific display area 74. Then, with the start of the variation of the specific decorative symbols 71, 71,... In which the number of specific symbols to be determined is the specific number of times, the last first display body 73a is deleted, and the result of the jackpot lottery related to the variation is ", After the special symbol and the decorative symbol are confirmed and displayed, the support state is ended, and the sub-integrated CPU 42 returns the background display and the decorative symbol on the effect display unit 6 to those normally used.

(Effects of the modified pachinko machine)
Even with a pachinko machine that performs an effect as described in the above modification example, a display body such as the first display body 73a or the second display body 73b is used to notify the end time of the support state or to read ahead according to the hold information. In order to suggest the determination result of the determination, in other words to display a display body corresponding to the conventional hold display body more than the number of hold, and to inform the end time of the specific gaming state using the display body, An effect that allows the player to feel freshness can be realized, and a pachinko machine with high gaming properties can be obtained.

Further, in order to determine whether to change the first display body 73a to the second display body 73b, a lottery is performed when schedule information is received from the main CPU 32. The lottery result is associated with the basic variation pattern, and the first display body 73a is changed to the second display body 73b when the jackpot lottery result is a basic variation pattern with a high possibility of being a “big hit”. The production can be selected. Therefore, the player can play the game with an interest in whether or not the first display body 73a changes to the second display body 73b in accordance with the winning of the game ball to the starting prize-winning item 17, and the game performance is further improved. Can be improved.

(Modifications of the present invention)
It should be noted that other configurations relating to the gaming machine of the present invention are not limited to those described in the above-described embodiments and modifications, and the overall configuration of the gaming machine as well as the first display body and the second The configuration related to the effect using the display body can be appropriately changed as necessary without departing from the spirit of the present invention.

For example, in the above-described embodiment or modification, the support state is set to the specific game state, and the end time of the support state is notified using the first display body or the third display body, but the high probability state is set to the specific game state ( In other words, the high probability state ends when the number of fixed display times of the symbol reaches a specific number), and the end time of the high probability state can be notified using the first display body or the third display body. is there. In addition to the support state and the high probability state, the specific game state may be a so-called short-time state in which the average value of the symbol variation time is shortened, or a combination of these multiple states causes no problem. There is no.
In the above embodiment, four types of support states are set as the support state. However, the number of support states may be three or less, and there is no problem even if the number is five or more. It is possible to appropriately change whether to set or whether to set the specific number of steps.

Further, the display body of the second display body or the third display body can be changed as appropriate as compared with the first display body, and the size, shape, or the like may be changed instead of the color. Needless to say, a combination thereof may be used. In addition, the digest display area is provided in the center lower part instead of the lower left corner of the effect display part, and the first display body alternately moves to the digest display area from the left and right of the digest display area every time the change of the specific decorative design starts. The position of the specific display area and the digest display area, the movement mode from the specific display area to the digest display area, and the like are not limited to the above embodiment.
In addition, in the above-described embodiment and modified example, the first display body is changed to the second display body at the timing when the schedule information is received (that is, substantially the same timing as when the hold information is stored). The timing for changing the display body to the second display body can be changed as appropriate. For example, if one or more schedule information has already been stored, the first display body is changed to the second display body at the next timing when the symbol variation starts after receiving the schedule information. It may be before the scheduled information (that is, the hold information) determined to change the first display body to the second display body is digested. It is of course possible to set a plurality of patterns as to which timing to change and to determine by lottery at the timing when the schedule information is received.

Furthermore, in the above-described embodiment and modified examples, the aspect related to erasure of the first display body, the second display body, and the third display body is moved from the specific display area to the digestion display area, but is erased. A mode of erasing in the specific display area without moving to the display area may be employed, and if erasing is finally performed, the mode of erasing can be appropriately changed. In addition, the timing at which the first display body and the second display body are erased can be appropriately changed. For example, the symbols may be displayed in the specific display area or the digestion display area until immediately before the symbol is fixedly displayed. . Furthermore, in the said embodiment, although it is supposed that the specific display area for displaying a 1st display body will be formed, if a 1st display body is added in the display part for production, it will be 1st like a specific display area. It is not necessary to form a display area dedicated to display of the display body.
In addition, the number of first display bodies displayed on the effect display unit with the occurrence of the specific gaming state is not limited to the number of the above-described embodiments and modification examples, but the number of hold information that can be stored. A large number is sufficient. Also, the display mode of the first display body and the display section for the display of the second display body is not displayed in a single line as in the above-described embodiment and modified examples, but is displayed in two stages. It is also possible to change the order in which the first display body and the second display body are erased.

Furthermore, in the above-described embodiment, the third display body is always displayed in a situation where the number of fixed display times of the symbol is reaching the specific number or the specific number of steps, and the design is such that the fixed display frequency of the symbol is the specific number of times or the specific number of steps. The third display body is digested at the start of the fluctuation of the first display body, but it is selectively determined by lottery or the like whether or not the third display body is displayed, and the first display body is displayed without displaying the third display body. The number of symbol fixed display reaches a specific number or a specific number of stages (that is, the first display body is digested at the start of symbol variation when the symbol fixed display count is a specific number or a specific level) It is also possible to configure so as to give a special situation.
In addition, in the above-described embodiment, it is assumed that the reservation information is digested in the order obtained, but the order in which the reservation information is digested can be appropriately changed. It may be configured to preferentially digest the hold information related to winning in the start winning combination rather than the hold information related to winning.

In the above embodiment, the start command and the stop command are transmitted from the main control device to the sub control device. However, the stop command is not transmitted by using the timer of the sub control device. There is no problem.
Furthermore, in the above embodiment, the control is divided into two control devices, ie, the main control device and the sub control device. However, the control may be performed by one main control device. There is no problem even if a specific effect storage area, f counter, or i counter is provided in the storage means of the control device, and it is not necessary to create a start command, schedule information, or the like when controlling with one main control device. Further, in the above embodiment, a pachinko machine that uses two types of symbols, a special symbol and a decorative symbol, is used, but a pachinko machine that uses only a special symbol may be used, and the special symbol display unit may be included in the effect display unit. It may be provided in other positions such as in the game area and the center member.

  Furthermore, when the second specific condition is satisfied in the lottery using the g counter, it is possible to appropriately change how many first display bodies are changed to the second display bodies. As a result of the lottery, if the specific information is satisfied in the lottery by the g counter in the schedule information for digesting the five first display bodies at a time, all the five first display bodies are changed to the second display bodies. You may do it. In addition, the timing for changing is not limited to winning, and it is also possible to change the timing from the first display body to the second display body at the start of symbol variation when the number of schedule information is equal to or less than the predetermined number. is there. Further, a plurality of types of second display bodies may be set, and there is no problem even if the second display body is changed in detail according to the result of the big hit lottery or the like. On the other hand, there is no problem even if it is configured not to use the second display body (of course, lottery is not executed).

Furthermore, a plurality of types of display bodies are set as the third display body, and the possibility that the specific gaming state will be ended when the third display body is digested varies depending on the type of the third display body (for example, When the blue third display body is displayed, there is a high possibility that the number of fixed display times of the symbol accompanying the digestion of the third display body is a specific number of times, and when the red third display body is displayed, It is also possible to configure such that, for example, there is a high possibility that the number of fixed display times of symbols accompanying the digestion of the third display body is the number of specific stages. In the gaming machine described in the modified example, the third display body is not displayed when the specific number of times is reached. However, the third display body may be displayed, and the specific display as in the above embodiment may be performed. Of course, it is also possible to display the third display body in a situation where the number of stages is being reached.
Furthermore, in the above embodiment, the numerical value is acquired from three counters of the c counter, the d counter, and the e counter as the big hit lottery. However, it is possible to deal with only one counter, and two counters. Of course, it is also possible to obtain a numerical value from four or more counters. The random number as the lottery means can be either a soft random number or a hard random number.

Further, the number of special winning means and the movable mode of the special winning means in the special gaming state are not limited to those of the above embodiment. For example, a plurality of special winning means may be installed or they may be alternately arranged. You may make it open. In addition, it may be configured to selectively cause a plurality of special gaming states with different numbers of opening operations of the special winning means, and as a movable mode of the special winning means in the special gaming state, the game ball is almost won. There is no problem even if such a movable mode is included.
Furthermore, when the first specific condition is satisfied, the number of first display bodies to be digested at a time can be appropriately changed as a matter of course, and a plurality of patterns are set as the number to be digested at one time ( For example, the number of the first display bodies to be digested at a time can be set more finely than the above embodiment in correspondence with the result of the big hit lottery, etc. Is possible.

Furthermore, in the above-described embodiment and modification, one of the conditions is that the basic variation pattern becomes the specific basic variation pattern regarding the satisfaction of the first specific condition, the satisfaction of the second specific condition, and the satisfaction of the specific condition. One condition may be that the information corresponding to the numerical value acquired from the c counter included in the schedule information is taken into consideration and the schedule information is that the result of the big win lottery is “big hit”. That is, in the pre-reading determination, the condition that either one of the special special game state and the non-specific special game state is caused after the fixed display of the symbol is satisfied, and the first effect determination random number (second effect determination random number) When the acquired numerical value from the production determination random number) is the first specific numerical value (second specific numerical value, specific numerical value), it is determined that the first specific condition (second specific condition, specific condition) is satisfied. Also good. Needless to say, a combination with the above embodiment is possible. Furthermore, in the pre-reading determination, when it is determined that one of the specific special game state and the non-specific special game state is to be generated after the symbol is displayed, the special special game state and the non-specific special game are displayed after the symbol is displayed. It is possible to appropriately change the association between the result of the pre-reading determination and the result of the determination relating to the satisfaction of the specific condition, such as making it easier to execute the change effect of the display body than when it is determined that neither of the states occurs. .
Furthermore, in the above embodiment, the f counter is provided as the first effect determination random number and the g counter is provided as the second effect determination random number. However, the first effect determination random number and the second effect determination random number are provided by one counter. It is also possible to configure so that the random number is also used.

In the embodiment and the modified example, when schedule information is received in a specific gaming state, numerical values are acquired from the f counter, g counter, and i counter, or added to the schedule information and stored. Further, when schedule information is received even in a game state (such as a normal state) other than the specific game state, a numerical value may be acquired from an f counter, a g counter, or the like, and added to the schedule information and stored. In that case, in the game state other than the specific game state, the above-described control may not be executed, for example, by not referring to the obtained numerical value from the f counter, the g counter, or the like when digesting the schedule information.
Furthermore, there is no problem even if the f counter, the g counter, and the i counter are used as different effect determination random numbers in a gaming state other than the specific gaming state.

  Furthermore, in the above-described embodiment, the number of digests of the first display body associated with the start of symbol variation is determined when the schedule information is received, that is, based on the result of the prefetch determination, but based on the result of the jackpot determination ( It can also be configured to determine (for example, upon receipt of a start command). Specifically, based on the information related to the jackpot lottery result included in the start command and the information related to the basic variation pattern, one of the specific special gaming state and the non-specific special gaming state after the display of the fixed symbol is displayed. When the basic fluctuation pattern is a “big hit” as a result of the big hit lottery, at least one of the specific basic fluctuation patterns having a high probability of being selected compared to the case of “out” is If the numerical value that is satisfied and is obtained from the first effect determination random number is the first specific numerical value (that is, the third specific condition is satisfied), a relatively large number of symbols are displayed during the variation of the symbol related to the start command. The configuration is such that one display body is deleted from the effect display unit. Note that the timing for acquiring the numerical value from the first effect determination random number may be when the schedule information is received or when the start command is received.

  Furthermore, although the prize opening provided in the V prize attacker is a special area, the prize opening and the special area are provided separately, and the winning of the game ball to the prize opening and the passing of the special area of the game ball are determined. You may make it each detect separately. Further, in such a V prize attacker, a first movable member that opens and closes both the prize opening and the special area, and a second movable member that opens and closes only the special area inside the first movable member are provided. It is also possible to adopt a configuration (in this case, the second movable member becomes the special movable means). In such a V-winning attacker, in the special game state in which the first movable member is opened, the total of the game balls that have won the prize opening and the game balls that have passed through the special area has reached a predetermined number. Control that closes the first movable member (therefore, depending on the opening / closing state of the second movable member, there is no game ball that has passed through the special area even though the first movable member has been opened for a long time. It is also possible to execute Furthermore, in the V prize attacker having the first movable member and the second movable member, the distance from the prize opening opened / closed by the first movable member to the special area opened / closed by the second movable member is determined by the second opening time. However, by making the distance that the game ball cannot reach even if the first movable member and the second movable member are opened simultaneously for the second opening time, the game ball passes through the special area in the non-specific special game state. It may be configured to prevent such a situation.

Moreover, in the said embodiment, although it has comprised so that it may open only once over the 1st open time or the 2nd open time about the operation | movement aspect of V prize winner in a special game state, Of course, the opening operation over the opening time can be repeated a plurality of times.
Furthermore, when the game ball is won at the start winning opening and when the game ball is won at the start winning combination, the result of the big win lottery is “big win”, not “non-specific big win” The probability of becoming a “special jackpot” (the probability that a special gaming state that makes it easy to win a game ball to the V winning attacker, and thus the probability that a specific gaming state can be expected) is the same, but the starting prize It is also possible to make the probabilities different when the game ball wins the mouth and when the game ball wins the starting winning combination. For example, in the case where a game ball is won in the starting winning combination, the game ball to the V winning attacker is determined when the result of the jackpot lottery is “hit” than in the case where the game ball wins in the starting winning opening. The probability of becoming a “special jackpot” that facilitates winning a prize may be increased.

In addition, in the above embodiment, a pachinko machine that is an example of a gaming machine has been described. However, the present invention is naturally applicable to other gaming machines such as a sealed pachinko machine.
It should be noted that all elements described in the claims, the description and the drawings (for example, the control means, the symbol display section, the special movable means, the production display section, etc.) are clearly described to consciously limit the number. As long as there is no, it may be physically single or plural, and the arrangement may be changed appropriately. In addition, the element names (names given to the elements) used in the claims and the description are merely given for convenience of description of the present case, and thereby have a special meaning.
