When the predetermined ball detection sensor detects that the ball has passed the general-purpose starting port 228, the pachinko machine 100 starts the general-purpose change game using the general-purpose display device 210.

  In the present embodiment, only one first special figure starting port 230 is provided at the lower center of the game board 200. When a predetermined ball detection sensor detects a ball entering the first special figure starting port 230, a payout device 152 described later is driven, and a predetermined number (for example, three) of balls are set as a prize ball to the upper plate 126. And the first special figure display device 212 starts the special figure changing game. Note that the ball that has entered the first special figure starting port 230 is guided to the back side of the pachinko machine 100 and then discharged to the game island side. In the case of the present embodiment, it is difficult to enter a game ball into the first special figure starting port 230 when the player hits right due to the arrangement of the first special figure starting port 230. Then, in the present embodiment, a specification for starting the variable display of the special figure 2 in preference to the special figure 1 (a pachinko machine having such a specification may be called a “special 2-priority variable machine” or the like). Have been.

  The second special figure starting port 232 is formed of an electric tulip (electric chew), is disposed below the first special figure starting port 230, includes a blade member 232a that can be opened and closed right and left, and closes the blade member 232a. In the middle of the game, it is impossible to enter the ball, so that when the player wins the regular figure fluctuation game and the regular figure display device 210 hits and stops and displays the symbol, the blade member 232a opens and closes at a prescribed time interval and a prescribed number of times. When a predetermined ball detection sensor detects a ball entering the second special figure starting port 232, the payout device 152 is driven to discharge a predetermined number (for example, three) of balls to the upper plate 126 as prize balls. At the same time, the special figure changing game by the second special figure display device 214 is started. The ball that has entered the second special figure starting port 232 is guided to the back side of the pachinko machine 100 and then discharged to the game island side. In the case of the present embodiment, due to the arrangement of the general-purpose starting port 228 (by a game nail not shown), it is difficult to enter a game ball into the general-purpose starting port 228 when the player hits left. . Therefore, during the left-handed hit, there is basically no winning in the normal-floating game, and therefore, there is basically no opening and closing of the blade member 232a. On the other hand, if the player hits right, the game ball can be expected to enter the general-purpose starting port 228, and the blade member 232a may be opened and closed by winning the general-purpose variation game. That is, it can be said that there is almost no possibility of winning in the second special figure starting port 232 during left-handed driving, but there is a possibility of winning in the second special figure starting port 232 during right-handed driving.

  The variable winning opening 234 is called a big winning opening or an attacker. In the present embodiment, only one variable winning opening is provided at the lower right side of the gaming board 200. The variable winning opening 234 has a door member 234a that can be freely opened and closed. When the door member 234a is closed, it is impossible to enter a ball, and the special figure display device stops the big hit symbol by winning the special figure changing game. When displayed, or when the game ball passes through a V region RV provided in the ball entry unit U1 described later, the door member 234a is set to a predetermined time interval (for example, open time 29 seconds, closed time 1.5 seconds). It opens and closes a predetermined number of times (for example, seven or fifteen times). When a predetermined ball detection sensor detects a ball entering the variable winning opening 234, the payout device 152 is driven to discharge a predetermined number (for example, 15) of balls to the upper plate 126 as prize balls. The ball that has entered the variable winning opening 234 is guided to the back side of the pachinko machine 100 and then discharged to the game island side.

  In this embodiment, the variable winning opening 234, the general winning opening 226b, and another winning opening described later are integrally formed with the ball entry unit U1, and can be detachably attached to the main body 201 of the game board 200. The ball entry unit U1 is further provided with opening and closing mechanisms SH1 and SH2 for opening and closing the ball passage, and a V region RV. Game balls that have passed through the opening and closing mechanisms SH1 and SH2 can enter the V region RV. In the present embodiment, when a small hit occurs in the variable game shown in Tokujin 2, the opening / closing mechanisms SH1 and SH2 are opened, and when the game ball passes through the opening / closing mechanisms SH1 and SH2 and enters the V region RV, the big hit game starts. It has become. That is, a second-type big hit can be generated.

The payout control unit 600 is configured to be able to transmit signals such as commands to the main control unit 300, but is configured to be unable to transmit signals such as commands from the payout control unit 600 to the main control unit 300. Is also good.

  Next, the first sub control unit 400 of the pachinko machine 100 will be described. The first sub-control unit 400 includes a basic circuit 402 that controls the entirety of the first sub-control unit 400 based mainly on a command or the like transmitted by the main control unit 300. The basic circuit 402 includes a CPU 404, a RAM 408 for temporarily storing data, an I / O 410 for controlling input / output of various devices, a counter timer 412 for measuring time, number of times, and the like, A serial communication control circuit 424 is mounted.

The CPU 504 of the basic circuit 502 operates by inputting a clock signal of a predetermined cycle output from the crystal oscillator 514 as a system clock. Further, the basic circuit 502 is connected to a ROM 506 in which a control program and data for controlling the entire second sub-control unit 500, data for image display, and the like are stored. In the present embodiment, the memory 508 is used as a temporary storage area, and the memory 508 is configured by a recording medium (for example, an EEPROM, a flash memory, or the like) capable of holding a storage state even when the power is turned off. Thereby, for example, the information for displaying the display regarding the big hit history can be held even when the main control unit 300 is initialized or the setting is changed. Note that a RAM in which stored information is volatilized when the power is turned off may be used.

  Next, the payout control unit 600, the launch control unit 630, and the power supply control unit 660 of the pachinko machine 100 will be described. The payout control unit 600 mainly controls the payout motor 602 of the payout device 152 based on a signal such as a command transmitted by the main control unit 300, and based on a control signal output from the payout sensor 604, a prize ball or a ball rental game.

Supply to each device. Furthermore, the power supply control unit 660 is configured to supply power to a predetermined component (for example, the RAM 308 of the main control unit 300) for a predetermined period (for example, 10 days) even after the external power supply is cut off (for example, a power storage circuit (for example, , Capacitors). In the present embodiment, power of a predetermined voltage is supplied from the power supply control unit 660 to the payout control unit 600 and the second sub-control unit 500, and the main control unit 300, the second sub-control unit 500 and the discharge unit Although the power supply of the predetermined voltage is supplied to the control unit 630, the power supply of the predetermined voltage may be supplied to each control unit and each device through another power supply path.

  Next, with reference to FIGS. 5A to 5D, the first special figure display device 212, the second special figure display device 214, the decorative design display device 208, and the general figure display device 210 of the pachinko machine 100 are stopped and displayed. The following describes the types of special maps and ordinary maps.

  The special figure 1 fluctuating game is started on condition that the first starting port sensor which is a ball detection sensor detects that a ball has entered the special figure 1 starting port 230, and the ball enters the special figure 2 starting port 232. The special figure 2 fluctuating game is started on condition that the ball is detected by the second starting port sensor which is a ball detection sensor. When the special figure 1 variable game is started, the first special figure display device 212 repeats the lighting of all seven segments and the lighting of one central segment (variable display of special figure 1) (special figure (Fluctuating game). In addition, when the special figure 2 variable game is started, the second special figure display device 214 repeats the “variable display of special figure 2” that repeats lighting of all seven segments and lighting of the central segment. (Figure change game). When the fluctuation time determined before the start of the change of the special figure 1 elapses, the first special figure display device 212 stops and displays the stop symbol mode of the special figure 1, and the fluctuation time determined before the start of the change of the special figure 2 Elapses, the second special figure display device 214 stops and displays the stop symbol mode of the special figure 2. Hereinafter, the variable display from the start of the “variable display of the special figure 1 or 2” to the stop display of the stop symbol mode of the special figure 1 or 2 may be referred to as the special figure variable display. The variable display of this special figure may be continuously performed a plurality of times.

  FIG. 5A shows an example of the stop symbol mode of the special figure 1. FIG. 5 (a) shows three types of special figures from "special figure A" to "special figure C". In FIG. 5A, a blank portion in the figure indicates a location of a segment to be turned off, and a black portion indicates a location of a segment to be turned on.

  In the present embodiment, two types of big hit symbols (“special symbol A” and “special symbol B”) are prepared as the stop symbol mode of the special symbol. "Special figure A" is a 16 round (R) big hit design, and a 16R big hit design that can expect to get a ball in all of the 16 rounds. "Special figure B" is an 8R big hit design. Therefore, it is an 8R jackpot symbol that can be expected to obtain a payout in all of the eight rounds. In this embodiment, two types of big hit symbols are prepared, but it goes without saying that three or more big hit symbols may be prepared. In addition, a jackpot that is substantially difficult to win in some rounds may be prepared.

  In the pachinko machine 100 of the present embodiment, the determination as to whether or not a big hit in the special figure fluctuating game is made by lottery of hardware random numbers, and the big hit symbol to be stopped is made by lottery of software random numbers. Further, in the present embodiment, the state shifts to the time-saving state (electric support state) after the end of the big hit game. Here, the electric support state is a predetermined time where the advantage of the player is higher than the non-electric support state by shortening the time from the end of the big hit in the special figure variable game to the start of the next big hit. Refers to the state. Although the time reduction will be described in detail later, the time reduction state is referred to as a general figure high probability state (hereinafter, may be referred to as a “typical probability change”), and the state not in the time reduction state is referred to as a general figure low probability state. As described above, the electric support state (time saving state) is started on condition that the big hit game ends. Strictly speaking, the “electric support state” is a state related to a general figure, and the “time reduction state” is a state related to a special figure or a state related to a general figure and a special figure. A time-saving flag is provided in the RAM 308 of the main control unit 300. When the time-saving flag is set to ON, it is in the power support state and is in the ordinary high probability state. In the high probability state of the general figure, it is easier to win the fluctuation game of the general figure than in the low probability state of the general figure (probable change of the general figure). For example, the winning probability of the general-purpose fluctuating game is 1/100 in the general-purpose low probability state (non-electric support state), and increases to 99/100 in the general-purpose high probability state (electric support state). In addition, in the electric support state, the fluctuation time of the general figure variable game is shorter than in the non-electric support state (normal figure change). For example, in the non-electric support state, the fluctuation time of the ordinary figure fluctuation game of 10 seconds is reduced to 2 seconds in the electric support state. In addition, in the electric support state, the open time in one opening of the blade member 232a of the special figure 2 starting port 232 tends to be longer than that in the non-electric support state (extension of the electric chew opening period). For example, in the non-power support state, the power cheek opening period of 0.2 seconds is extended to 2 seconds in the power support state. Furthermore, the blade members 232a are more likely to open in the electric support state than in the non-electric support state (the number of times the electric chew is opened). For example, a wing member 232a that opens only once in the non-electric support state for one prize to the normal figure starting port 228 opens twice in the electric support state (opens for 2 seconds, closes for 1 second, and then closes for 2 seconds) Open). By extending the power chew opening period or increasing the number of times the power chew is opened, the probability of entering the special figure 2 starting port 232 increases. The time reduction flag is set to off during the big hit game. Therefore, during the big hit game, the non-electric support state is maintained. This is because a game ball is picked up by an electric chew having a small number of prize balls in a big hit game, and if the winning of the game ball to the variable winning opening (attacker) 234 is reduced, the player may be disadvantaged. Because there is. In the present embodiment, in the power support state (time saving state), all of the figure change, the figure change, the extension of the power chew opening period, and the increase of the number of times the power chew is opened are performed. If only one of them is performed, the player has a higher advantage, and may be in the electric support state (time saving state). Alternatively, if either the extension of the electric chew opening period or the increase in the number of times the electric chew is opened, the probability of entering the special figure 2 starting port 232 is increased, the electric support state (time saving state) may be set. In the non-electric support state, game balls are less likely to enter the special figure 2 starting port 232 than in the electric support state. As described above, the special figure 2 starting port 232 is changed into a prize difficult state where the game ball is difficult to enter and an easy prize state where the game ball is easy to enter. The entrance of the special figure 2 starting port 232 is in an easy winning state for a longer time in the electric support state than in the non-electric support state. In the present embodiment, when the “special figure A” and the “special figure B” are stopped and displayed, after the big hit game that is performed thereafter, the electric support state (the ordinary figure) is displayed until the fluctuation display of the special figure 99 times is performed. The high-probability state is maintained, and the state shifts to the non-electric support state (the ordinary low-probability state) at the 100th time. In the present embodiment, all the big hit symbols of the special map 1 shift to the power support state after the big hit game ends, but a big hit symbol (non-power support big hit symbol) which does not shift to the power support state is provided. Alternatively, if a big hit is made with the non-electric support big hit symbol, the game may not be shifted to the electric support state after the end of the big hit game, but may be kept in the non-electric support state. Also, in the present embodiment, the probability variation (probability change) is not performed for the special figure. However, when the probability change big hit symbol is provided and the big change hit is made, the special figure big hit is completed after the big hit game ends. The state may be shifted to a probable change state in which the probability becomes a high probability state (a special figure high probability state). In addition, a small hit symbol may be prepared in addition to the big hit symbol. In the small hit game, the door member 234a of the variable winning opening 234 is operated a predetermined number of times (for example, twice), and the door member 234a is operated once. It is kept open for a maximum of 0.1 second per actuation. In addition, in the opening of the door member 234a in the small hit, for example, when the game ball enters a predetermined number of balls (for example, 10 balls) at the first opening, or a predetermined amount of game value (the predetermined number of balls) is obtained. If so, the second and subsequent releases are not performed. During the small hit game, the state shifts to the special figure low probability ordinary figure low probability state. The small hit is a hit where the control state does not change before and after the small hit game, and returns to the control state before the start of the small hit game after the small hit game ends.

  As described above, in the present embodiment, when the “special figure A” and the “special figure B” are stopped and displayed, the control state becomes the general figure high probability state after the big hit game ends.

  Further, in the present embodiment, one type of stop symbol is prepared as a loss symbol. “Special figure C” is a lost pattern.

  FIG. 5B shows an example of the stop symbol mode of the special figure 2. In FIG. 5B, three types of special figures from "special figure A" to "special figure C" are shown, and two kinds of special figures are small hit symbols ("special figure A" and "special figure A"). Toku-zu B ”). In any of the small hit symbols of “special figure A” and “special figure B”, the game balls that have been opened and closed by the opening and closing mechanisms SH1 and SH2 for a predetermined time (for example, 10 seconds) after the symbols are stopped, and have passed through the opening and closing mechanisms SH1 and SH2. Is configured to be a big hit (second-type big hit) by passing through the V region RV. Also, when a game ball passes through the V region RV and becomes a large hit after a small hit in the “special figure A”, the game in which the game ball passes through the V region RV is defined as the first round and the second round. The subsequent big hit game is started, and the variable winning opening 234 is repeatedly opened up to the 16th round, so that a payout can be obtained. Further, when a game ball passes through the V region RV and becomes a large hit after a small hit in the “special figure B”, the game in which the game ball passes through the V region RV is set to the first round and the second round. The subsequent big hit game is started, and the variable winning opening 234 is repeatedly opened until the eighth round, so that a payout can be obtained. In addition, the "special figure A" and the "special figure B" are both small hit symbols with electric support, and after the big hit game related to the big hit generated by the small hit is completed, one special Until the variable game ends, the state shifts to the electric support state, and then shifts to the non-electric support state.

  Further, in the present embodiment, one type of stop symbol is prepared as a loss symbol. “Special figure C” is a lost pattern.

  FIG. 5C shows an example of a decorative pattern. There are ten types of decoration patterns of this embodiment, "decoration 1" to "decoration 10." The first starting port sensor detects that a ball has entered the special figure 1 starting port 230 or the special figure 2 starting port 232, that is, that the ball has entered the special figure 1 starting port 230, or the special figure 2 Each of the left symbol display area 208a, the middle symbol display area 208b, and the right symbol display area 208c of the decorative symbol display device 208 is provided on condition that the second entrance sensor detects that the ball has entered the starting slot 232. In the symbol display area, the display is switched in the order of “decoration 1” → “decoration 2” → “decoration 3” →... “Decoration 9” → “decoration 10” → “decoration 1” →. "Variable display of symbols" is performed. That is, the decorative symbol display device 208 displays the decorative symbol in a variable manner, separately from the first special figure display device 212 and the second special figure display device 214. Then, the stop symbol mode, which is a combination of the decorative symbols, is stopped and displayed.

  When notifying that it is a 16R jackpot or an 8R jackpot, the symbol display areas 208a to 208c display the same numbered decorations other than “decoration 3-decoration 3-decoration 3” and “decoration 7-decoration 7-decoration 7”. A combination of three decorative patterns (for example, “decoration 1—decoration 1—decoration 1” or “decoration 4—decoration 4—decoration 4”) is stopped and displayed. When notifying the 16R jackpot ("special figure A"), "decoration 3-decoration 3-decoration 3" or "decoration 7-decoration 7-decoration 7" is stopped and displayed in the symbol display areas 208a to 208c. I do. In addition, when notifying the lost symbol of the “special symbol C”, a combination of decorative symbols other than the combination of the decorative symbols described above (for example, a broken eye) is stopped and displayed in the symbol display areas 208a to 208c. .

  Hereinafter, in the decorative symbol display device 208, the display from the start of the “variable display of the decorative symbol” until the stop symbol mode of the decorative symbol is stopped and displayed may be referred to as the decorative symbol variable display. The variable display of the decorative symbol is performed under the control of the second sub-control unit 500.

  FIG. 5 (d) shows an example of a stop symbol mode in a general figure. There are two types of stop display modes of the general symbol according to the present embodiment, namely, a general symbol "common symbol A" and a non-standard symbol "common symbol B". Based on the fact that the gate sensor, which is a ball detection sensor, detects that a ball has passed through the general-purpose starting port 228, the general-purpose display device 210 displays all seven segments and turns on one central segment. Performing the "floating display of the ordinary figure" (the ordinary figure fluctuating game) which repeats the lighting. Then, after the fluctuation time elapses, one of the symbols "Picture B", which is a symbol deviated from the "Picture A", which is a winning symbol, is stopped and displayed. In FIG. 5D as well, the white portions in the figure indicate the locations of the segments to be turned off, and the black portions indicate the locations of the segments to be turned on.

  Hereinafter, the display from the start of the “floating display of the ordinary figure” to the stop display of the stop symbol mode of the ordinary figure may be referred to as the “floating display of the ordinary figure”.

<Main control unit main processing>
Next, the main control unit main processing executed by the CPU 304 of the main control unit 300 shown in FIG. 4 will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 4 is a flowchart showing the flow of the main processing of the main control unit.

  The RAM 308 of the main control unit 300 shown in FIG. 4 stores a special figure random number, a special figure round decision random number, a special figure electric support decision random number, and a special figure design decision random number. Further, the RAM 308 is provided with a random number counter for generating these various random numbers. Further, the RAM 308 stores the number of reserved special figures, the random number value of special figure winning, various determination (lottery) results, and the like. Hereinafter, the area for storing the reserved number of special figures in the RAM 308 may be referred to as a special figure reserved number storage area. Further, the RAM 308 is provided with a starting information storage unit for a special figure, which is divided into a maximum number (four in this example) of areas in which the start of the determination of the success or failure (lottery) can be suspended. A random number storage area for ordinary drawing is also provided. As will be described later, the start information storage unit for special maps stores a plurality of types of start information as one set and stores the set of start information in winning order (holding order), one set at a time for each area.

  As described above, the main controller 300 shown in FIG. 4 is provided with the start signal output circuit (reset signal output circuit) 340 that outputs a start signal (reset signal) when the power is turned on. The CPU 304 of the basic circuit 302 that has received the start signal performs a reset start by a reset interrupt, and executes a main control unit main process shown in FIG. 6 according to a control program stored in the ROM 306 in advance.

  In step S101, initial setting 1 is performed. In the initial setting 1, setting of a stack initial value to the stack pointer (SP) of the CPU 304 (temporary setting), setting of an interrupt mask, initial setting of the I / O 310, initial setting of various variables stored in the RAM 308, and WDT 314 The operation permission and the initial value setting are performed. In the present embodiment, a numerical value corresponding to 32.8 ms is set as an initial value in the WDT 314.

  In step S103, the value of the counter of the WDT 314 is cleared, and the time measurement by the WDT 314 is restarted.

  In step S105, it is determined whether or not the low-voltage signal is on, that is, the voltage monitoring circuit 338 determines the voltage value of the power supplied from the power control unit 660 to the main control unit 300 via the second sub-control unit 500. Is smaller than a predetermined value (9 V in the present embodiment), it is monitored whether or not a low voltage signal indicating that the voltage has decreased is output. When the low-voltage signal is on (when the CPU 304 detects the power-off), the process returns to step S103. When the low-voltage signal is off (the CPU 304 does not detect the power-off), the process returns to step S103. Proceed to S107. Note that even when the power supply is not turned on and the predetermined value (9 V) has not yet been reached, the process returns to step S103, and step S105 is repeatedly performed until the supply voltage exceeds the predetermined value.

  In step S107, initialization 2 is performed. In the initial setting 2, a process for setting a value for determining a period for executing a main control unit timer interrupt process described later at regular intervals in the timer circuit 312, a predetermined port of the I / O 310 (for example, a test output port, A process of outputting a clear signal from an output port (output port to the first sub-control unit 400), a setting to permit writing to the RAM 308, and the like are performed.

  In step S109, it is determined whether or not the power supply returns to the state before the power interruption (before the power failure). If the power supply does not return to the state before the power failure (the case where the basic circuit 302 of the main control unit 300 is initialized) In ()), the processing proceeds to the processing after step S113 to execute the initialization processing.

  If it is not determined to return to the state before the power interruption (step S109; No), it is determined whether the cause is that the RAM clear switch 180 provided on the power supply board 182 shown in FIG. It is determined whether or not it is (step S113). That is, it is determined whether or not the RAM clear signal transmitted when the RAM clear switch 180 is operated is on (indicating that an operation has been performed). If the RAM clear signal is determined to be ON (step S113; Yes), it is determined whether the setting change key 192 is operated to the ON side (step S115), and the setting change key 192 is operated to the ON side. If it is determined that the setting has been made (step S115; Yes), a setting change process is executed (step S117).

  When the setting change process is executed, the 7-seg corresponding to the setting monitor in the accessory ratio / setting display 196 indicates “1” and blinks, indicating that the setting can be changed. In this state, every time the setting change button 194 is pressed down, the 7-segment of the setting monitor is incremented, and the setting change button 194 is pressed down while the 7-segment corresponding to the setting monitor indicates “3”. Then, it returns to "1". In the present embodiment, at least one of the settings 1 to 3 having different jackpot probabilities can be selected, and the setting is changed by operating the setting change key 192 to the OFF side after changing to the desired setting. Is determined. At this time, the set value displayed on the setting monitor is deleted. Thereafter, after the setting is determined, the set value can be displayed on the setting monitor for a certain period of time (for example, 5 seconds) by operating the setting change button 194. In the present embodiment, the setting value is displayed on the setting monitor of the accessory ratio / setting display 196. However, for example, the setting value may be displayed on the decorative symbol display device 208 or notified by voice output. Good. Further, in the present embodiment, three stages of the settings 1 to 3 are set, but two stages may be set, four or more stages may be set, or the setting may not be changed. . In the present embodiment, the initial value of the setting displayed on the setting monitor is “1”. However, the setting value before the power is turned off is retained, and the retained setting value is displayed. Is also good.

  If it is not determined in step S113 that the RAM clear signal is ON (step S113; No), or if it is not determined in step S115 that the setting change key 192 has been operated to the ON side ( (Step S115; No), the process proceeds to step S119 without executing the setting change process of step S117.

  In step S119, an initialization process is performed to bring the basic circuit 302 into an initial state (step S119). Here, when the RAM clear signal is ON, the power status information stored in the power status storage area provided in the RAM 308 is read. When the power status information is not information indicating suspend, a predetermined area of the RAM 308 (for example, The checksum is calculated by adding all the 1-byte data stored in all the areas) to a 1-byte register whose initial value is 0, and the calculated checksum results in a specific value (for example, 0). Is determined (whether the checksum result is normal or not). If the checksum result is other than a specific value (for example, 0) (if the checksum result is abnormal), Executes an initialization process to bring the pachinko machine 100 into an initial state. In this initialization processing, setting of interrupt prohibition, setting of a stack initial value to a stack pointer (main setting), initialization of all storage areas of the RAM 308, and the like are performed. In this embodiment, the setting value set in the setting change process (step S117) is retained even when the initialization is performed. Further, here, a normal return command and a setting command indicating the setting selected in step S117 are set in a transmission information storage area provided in the RAM 308 of the main controller 300. This normal return command is a command indicating that the initialization process (step S119) of the main control unit 300 has been performed, and is the same as the power restoration command described later in step S233 in the timer interrupt process of the main control unit 300. , To the first sub-control unit 400.

  In step S121, after setting interrupt prohibition, a basic random number initial value update process is performed. In the basic random number initial value updating process, two initial value generating random number counters for generating the initial values of the ordinary figure winning random number counter and the special figure random number value counter are updated. For example, assuming that the value range that can be taken as the general-purpose winning random number value is 0 to 99, the value is obtained from the random number counter storage area for generating the general-purpose winning random number value provided in the RAM 308, and 1 is added to the obtained value. Then, it is stored in the original random number counter storage area. At this time, if the result of adding 1 to the obtained value is 100, 0 is stored in the original random number counter storage area. The other initial value generation random number counters and random number counters are similarly updated. The main control unit 300 repeatedly executes the process of step S121 except during the execution of the timer interrupt process started at a predetermined cycle.

  On the other hand, in step S111, a power recovery process is performed. In this power restoration process, the value of the stack pointer stored in the stack pointer save area provided in the RAM 308 at the time of power failure is read out, and the stack pointer is reset (actually set). Further, at the time of power failure, the value of each register stored in the register save area provided in the RAM 308 is read, and after resetting each register, interrupt permission is set. Thereafter, as a result of the CPU 304 executing the control program based on the reset stack pointer and the register, the pachinko machine 100 returns to the state at the time of power-off. That is, the processing is restarted from the instruction following the instruction (predetermined in step S121) performed immediately before branching to the timer interrupt processing (described later) immediately before the power interruption. The RAM 308 mounted on the basic circuit 302 in the main control unit 300 shown in FIG. 2 has a transmission information storage area. In step S111, a power restoration command is set in the transmission information storage area. This power restoration command is a command indicating that the power has been restored to the state at the time of power failure, and is transmitted to the first sub-control unit 400 in step S233 in the timer interrupt process of the main control unit 300, which will be described later.

<Main controller timer interrupt processing>
Next, the main control unit timer interrupt processing executed by the CPU 304 of the main control unit 300 will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 5 is a flowchart showing the flow of the main control unit timer interrupt processing.

  The main control unit 300 shown in FIG. 4 includes a timer circuit 312 that generates a timer interrupt signal at a predetermined cycle (once about every 4 ms in the present embodiment). The unit timer interrupt process is started at a predetermined cycle.

  In step S201, a timer interrupt start process is performed. In the timer interrupt start process, a process of temporarily saving the value of each register of the CPU 304 to the stack area is performed.

  In step S203, the WDT 314 is periodically (set) so that the count value of the WDT 314 does not exceed the initial set value (32.8 ms in the present embodiment) and a WDT interrupt does not occur (do not detect a processing abnormality). In the embodiment, the restart is performed about once every about 2 ms which is the cycle of the main control section timer interrupt.

  In step S205, an input port state update process is performed. In this input port state update processing, detection signals of various sensors 320 shown in FIG. 4 including various ball detection sensors are input through input ports of the I / O 310 to monitor presence / absence of the detection signals, and various data are stored in the RAM 308. It is stored in a signal state storage area provided for each sensor 320. To explain the detection signal of the ball detection sensor as an example, information on the presence / absence of the detection signal of each ball detection sensor detected in the last two timer interrupt processes (about 4 ms before) is stored in the RAM 308 for each ball detection sensor. The information is read out from the previous detection signal storage area provided separately for each ball detection sensor, and this information is stored in the RAM 308 in the detection signal storage area before and after the second detection provided separately for each ball detection sensor. The information on the presence or absence of the detection signal of each ball detection sensor detected in the above) is read out from the present detection signal storage area partitioned and provided in the RAM 308 for each ball detection sensor, and this information is read out in the above-described previous detection signal storage area. To memorize. Also, the detection signals of the respective ball detection sensors detected this time are stored in the above-described current detection signal storage area.

  In step S205, the information on the presence / absence of the detection signal of each ball detection sensor stored in each of the above-described two-time detection signal storage area, the previous detection signal storage area, and the current detection signal storage area is compared. It is determined whether or not the information on the presence / absence of the past three detection signals from the ball detection sensor matches the winning determination pattern information. This main control unit timer interrupt process is repeated several times at a very short interval of about 2 ms while one game ball passes one ball detection sensor. Therefore, every time the main control unit timer interrupt process is activated, in step S205 described above, a detection signal indicating that the same game ball has passed the same ball detection sensor is confirmed. As a result, a detection signal indicating that the same game ball has passed through the same ball detection sensor is stored in each of the above-mentioned two-time detection signal storage area, the previous detection signal storage area, and the current detection signal storage area. That is, when the game ball starts passing through the ball detection sensor, there is no detection signal twice before, there is a previous detection signal, and there is a current detection signal. In the present embodiment, in consideration of erroneous detection of the ball detection sensor and noise, if the detection signal is stored twice consecutively after the absence of the detection signal, it is determined that a prize has been won. The ROM 306 of the main control unit 300 shown in FIG. 4 stores winning determination pattern information (in the present embodiment, information indicating that there is no detection signal before last time, there is a previous detection signal, and there is a current detection signal). In this step S205, the information on the presence or absence of the past three detection signals in each ball detection sensor is determined by predetermined winning determination pattern information (in this embodiment, no detection signal before last time, presence of previous detection signal, presence of current detection signal) When the match is made with the general winning port 226, the variable winning port 234, the first special figure starting port 230 and the second special figure starting port 232, or the general figure starting port 228 Is determined to have passed. That is, it is determined that there is a winning in these winning ports 234, 226 and these starting ports 230, 232, 228. For example, when the information on the presence or absence of the past three detection signals in the first starting port sensor that detects the ball entering the first special figure starting port 230 matches the above-mentioned winning determination pattern information, the first special drawing It is determined that there is a prize in the starting port 230, that is, that the game medium passing through the predetermined area has been detected, and the following processing associated with the prize in the first special figure starting port 230 is performed. If the presence / absence information does not match the above-described winning determination pattern information, the process branches to the subsequent process without performing the subsequent process of winning the first special figure starting port 230. The ROM 306 of the main controller 300 stores winning determination clear pattern information (in the present embodiment, information indicating that there is a detection signal before last time, no previous detection signal, and no current detection signal). After it is determined that there is a prize once, it is not determined that there is a prize until the information on the presence / absence of the detection signals of the past three times in each ball detection sensor matches the prize determination clear pattern information. If it matches the pattern information, it is determined whether or not the pattern information matches the winning determination pattern information.

  In steps S207 and S209, a basic random number initial value updating process and a basic random number updating process are performed. In these basic random number initial value update processing and basic random number update processing, the value of the random number counter for initial value generation performed in step S121 is updated, and then the general-purpose winning random number value and Update the random number counter for generating each of the special figure random numbers. For example, assuming that the value range that can be taken as the general-purpose winning random number value is 0 to 99, the value is obtained from the random number counter storage area for generating the general-purpose winning random number value provided in the RAM 308, and 1 is added to the obtained value. Then, it is stored in the original random number counter storage area. At this time, if the result of adding 1 to the obtained value is 100, 0 is stored in the original random number counter storage area. Also, as a result of adding 1 to the obtained value, when it is determined that the random number counter has made one round, the value of the random number counter for generating an initial value corresponding to each random number counter is obtained and stored in the storage area of the random number counter. set. For example, a value obtained from a random number counter for generating a general-purpose winning random number value that fluctuates in a numerical range of 0 to 99 is obtained, and a result obtained by adding 1 to the obtained value is stored in a predetermined initial value storage area provided in the RAM 308. If the value is equal to the previously set initial value (for example, 7), a value is obtained as an initial value from the random number counter for generating an initial value corresponding to the random number counter for generating a general-purpose winning random number value. The initial value set this time is stored in the above-mentioned initial value storage area in order to set the random number counter for generating a random number for winning and to determine that the random number counter for generating random number for ordinary drawing has made one round next time. Keep it. In addition to the above-described initial value storage area for determining that the random number counter for generating the normal figure winning random number has made one round, it is determined that the random number counter for generating the special figure random number has made one round. Is provided in the RAM 308.

  In step S211, effect random number update processing is performed. In the effect random number updating process, the random number counter for generating the effect random number value used in the main control unit 300 is updated.

  In step S213, a timer update process is performed. In this timer update process, the ordinary symbol display symbol update timer for measuring the time for changing and stopping the symbol on the ordinary symbol display device 210, the symbol is displayed on the first special symbol display device 212, and the second special symbol display device 214. Various kinds of timers, including a special figure display symbol update timer for measuring the time of fluctuation / stop display, a timer for measuring a predetermined prize production time, a predetermined opening time, a predetermined closing time, a predetermined end production period, and the like. Update the timer.

  In step S215, a winning opening counter updating process is performed. In the winning opening counter updating process, when a winning is achieved in the winning opening 234, 226 or the starting opening 230, 232, the value of the prize ball number storage area provided for each winning opening or for each starting opening is stored in the RAM 308. Read, 1 is added, and the original prize ball number storage area is set.

  In step S217, a winning reception process is performed. In the winning reception processing, if a predetermined condition is satisfied, a plurality of types of start information are acquired. The plurality of types of start information acquired here are stored as a set of start information in an empty area of the start information storage unit provided in the RAM 308 according to a winning order (holding order).

  In step S219 executed after step S217, a payout request number transmission process is performed. The output schedule information and the payout request information to be output to the payout control unit 600 shown in FIG. 4 are composed of 1 byte, and the strobe information (when ON, indicates that data is set), the bit 6 , Power-on information (in the case of ON, it indicates that the command is transmitted for the first time after power-on), bits 4 to 5 indicate the current processing type for encryption (0 to 3), and bits 0 to 3 indicate encryption. The number of payout requests after chemical processing is shown.

  In step S221, a general-purpose state update process is performed. This ordinary figure state update processing performs one of a plurality of processings corresponding to the ordinary figure state. For example, in the ordinary symbol state updating process during the ordinary symbol change display (the value of the ordinary symbol display symbol update timer is 1 or more), the lighting and turning off and on of the 7-segment LED included in the ordinary symbol display device 210 are repeated. Turn off drive control is performed. By performing this control, the ordinary symbol display device 210 performs a fluctuation display of a normal figure (normal figure fluctuation game).

  In addition, in the ordinary symbol state update processing at the timing when the ordinary symbol change display time has elapsed (when the value of the ordinary symbol display symbol update timer has changed from 1 to 0), when the hit flag is on, the winning symbol is displayed. The 7-segment LED constituting the ordinary symbol display device 210 is controlled to be turned on and off, and when the hit flag is off, the ordinary symbol display device 210 is configured to display the lost symbol. ON / OFF drive control of the 7-segment LED is performed. Further, the RAM 308 of the main control unit 300 is provided with a setting area for performing various settings in various processes, not limited to the ordinary state updating process. Here, the above-mentioned lighting / light-off driving control is performed, and a setting indicating that a normal stop display is being performed is performed in the setting area. By performing this control, the ordinary symbol display device 210 determines one of the winning symbol (the ordinary symbol A shown in FIG. 5D) and the lost symbol (the ordinary symbol B shown in FIG. 5D). Display. After that, for a predetermined stop display period (for example, 500 ms), information indicating the stop period is set in a storage area of a general-purpose stop time management timer provided in the RAM 308 to maintain the display. With this setting, the symbol that has been confirmed and displayed is stopped and displayed for a predetermined period of time, and the result of the ordinary figure fluctuating game is notified to the player.

  In addition, if the result of the normal figure fluctuation game is a hit, the general figure hit flag is turned on as described later. When the ordinary figure hit flag is ON, the ordinary figure state updating process at the timing when the predetermined stop display period ends (timing when the value of the ordinary figure stop time management timer changes from 1 to 0) is used. In the setting area, the normal operation is set, and for a predetermined opening period (for example, 2 seconds), the solenoid (332) for driving the opening and closing of the blade member 232a of the second special figure starting port 232 opens the blade member 232a. And the information indicating the open period is set in the storage area of the blade open time management timer provided in the RAM 308.

  Further, in the general state updating process started at the timing when the predetermined opening period ends (timing when the value of the blade opening time management timer changes from 1 to 0), the blade member is closed for a predetermined closing period (for example, 500 msec). A signal for holding the blade member 232a in a closed state is output to a solenoid (332) for driving the opening and closing of the blade 232a, and information indicating a closing period is set in a storage area of a blade closing time management timer provided in the RAM 308.

  Also, in the general-state updating process started at the timing when the predetermined closing period ends (timing when the value of the blade closing-time management timer changes from 1 to 0), the setting area of the RAM 308 is set to the non-operating state. I do. Further, if the result of the normal figure fluctuation game is a loss, the general figure loss flag is turned on as described later. When the general-figure losing flag is ON, even in the general-figure state update processing at the timing when the above-described predetermined stop display period ends (timing when the value of the general-figure stop time management timer changes from 1 to 0), In the setting area of the RAM 308, a setting is made to set the non-operating state of the ordinary drawing. In the ordinary figure state updating process in the case where the ordinary figure is not operating, the process proceeds to the next step S223 without doing anything.

  In step S223, a general drawing related lottery process is performed. In this general drawing related lottery processing, the general figure changing game and the opening / closing control of the second special figure starting port 232 are not performed (the state of the general figure is not operating), and the holding of the general figure changing game is suspended. When the number is 1 or more, it is determined whether the result of the universal figure changing game is a winning or a non-winning by random number lottery based on the universal figure winning random number value stored in the random number value storage area described above. A win determination is made, and in the case of winning, a hit flag provided in the RAM 308 is set to ON. In the case of non-winning, the hit flag is set to off. Regardless of the result of the hit determination, the value of the predetermined random number counter is obtained as a general-purpose timer random value, and the general-purpose display device 210 is generated from a plurality of fluctuation times based on the obtained general-purpose timer random value. One time for changing the display of the figure is selected, and this changing display time is stored in the normal figure changing time storage area provided in the RAM 308 as the general figure changing display time. It should be noted that the number of reserved general-purpose floating games is stored in the general-purpose reserved number storage area provided in the RAM 308, and each time a hit determination is made, The value obtained by subtracting 1 is stored again in this ordinary figure reserved number storage area. Further, the random number value used for the hit determination is deleted.

  Subsequently, a special figure prefetching process (step S224) is executed. In the special figure pre-reading processing, the main control unit 300 pre-reads the start information that has been increased in each of the special figure 1 and the special figure 2, and preliminarily determines the stop symbol and the fluctuation time before the hit / fail determination processing. The result (the special figure prefetch result) is stored in the prefetch result storage unit in the RAM 308.

  Next, the special figure state update processing for each of the special figure 1 and the special figure 2 is performed. First, the special figure state update processing (the special figure 2 state update processing) for the special figure 2 is performed (step S225). In the special figure 2 state update processing, one of the following plurality of processings is performed according to the state of the special figure 2.

  For example, in the special figure 2 state update processing during the special figure 2 change display (the value of the special figure 2 display symbol update timer is 1 or more), the 7-segment LED included in the special figure 2 display device 214 is turned on and off. The lighting / extinguishing drive control is repeated. By performing this control, the special figure 2 display device 214 performs a variable display of the special figure 2 (a special figure 2 variable game). Further, in the command setting transmission process (step S233), predetermined transmission information indicating that the rotation start setting transmission process is to be executed is additionally stored in the above-described transmission information storage area, and then the process ends.

  Further, the RAM 308 of the main control unit 300 is provided with flags such as a 16R big hit flag, an 8R big hit flag, a small hit flag, a loss flag, and a general-purpose probability variation flag. These flags are set on or off based on the determined stop symbol in a special drawing 2 related lottery process described later. In the special figure 2 state update processing started at the timing when the special figure 2 variable display time has elapsed (the timing when the value of the special figure 2 display symbol update timer has changed from 1 to 0), for example, a small hit (game in the V region RV) In the case of the flag, the special map A shown in FIG. 5A is used for the flag when the ball passes, and the small hit (the game transitions to the 8 round big hit when the game ball passes through the V region RV) is shown in FIG. In this case, the 7-segment LED constituting the special figure 2 display device 214 is turned on and off so that the special figure B and the special figure C when the losing flag is on are set. A setting indicating that the special figure 2 is being stopped and displayed is made in the area. By performing this control, the special figure 2 display device 214 displays a small hit (16R big hit when passing through the V region RV) symbol (special figure A) and a small hit (8R big hit when passing through the V region RV). One of a symbol (special symbol B) and a lost symbol (special symbol C) is confirmed and displayed.

  Thereafter, in order to maintain the display for a predetermined stop display period (for example, 500 ms), information indicating the stop period is set in the storage area of the special figure 2 stop time management timer provided in the RAM 308. With this setting, the specially displayed special figure 2 is stopped and displayed for a predetermined period, and the result of the special figure 2 variable game is notified to the player. If the number of times saved in the number of times saved storage unit provided in the RAM 308 is 1 or more, 1 is subtracted from the number of times saved, and if the result of the subtraction changes from 1 to 0, the time saving flag is turned off. . Further, the time reduction flag is turned off even during the big hit game (during the special game state).

  In addition, in the command setting transmission process (step S233), predetermined transmission information indicating that the rotation stop setting transmission process is to be executed is additionally stored in the above-described transmission information storage area, and the symbol for stopping the variable display is shown in FIG. The special figure 2 identification information indicating the presence is additionally stored in the RAM 308 as information to be included in the command data described later, and then the processing is terminated.

  If the result of the special figure 2 variable game is a small hit, the small hit flag is turned on. When the small hit flag is ON, the special figure 2 state update processing at the timing when the predetermined stop display period ends (the timing when the value of the special figure 2 stop time management timer changes from 1 to 0) is used. While the special figure 2 is being operated in the setting area, a predetermined winning effect period (for example, 3 seconds), that is, a period during which an image that informs the player of the start of the big hit by the decorative symbol display device 208 is displayed is awaited. For this purpose, information indicating the winning effect period is set in the storage area of the special figure 2 standby time management timer provided in the RAM 308. Further, predetermined transmission information indicating that the winning effect setting transmission process is to be executed in the command setting transmission process (step S233) is additionally stored in the transmission information storage area.

  Also, in the special figure 2 state update processing started at the timing when the predetermined winning effect period ends (when the value of the special figure 2 standby time management timer changes from 1 to 0), a predetermined opening period (for example, 10 The opening / closing mechanisms SH1 and SH2 are connected to a solenoid (a part of various solenoids 332) for driving the opening / closing of the opening / closing mechanism SH1 for a second or until the number of game balls passing through the opening / closing mechanism SH1 reaches a predetermined number (for example, 10 balls). A signal for holding the open state is output, and information indicating the open period is set in a storage area of the opening / closing mechanism open time management timer provided in the RAM 308. In the command setting transmission process (step S233), predetermined transmission information indicating that the process during the operation of the jackpot generating device is executed is additionally stored in the transmission information storage area.

  Also, in the special figure 2 state updating process started at the timing when the predetermined opening period ends (when the value of the opening / closing mechanism opening time management timer changes from 1 to 0), the opening / closing drive for the opening / closing mechanisms SH1 and SH2 is performed. A signal for holding the open / close mechanisms SH1 and SH2 in a closed state is output to solenoids (parts of various solenoids 332). At this time, when the game ball passes through the V region RV, the big hit flag is turned on. When the big hit flag is on, in the special figure 2 state update processing at the timing when the predetermined big hit shift display period ends (timing when the value of the special figure 2 big hit shift management timer changes from 1 to 0), A special figure 2 provided in the RAM 308 to wait for a jackpot generation effect period (for example, 3 seconds), that is, a period in which an image that informs a player that a game ball has passed through the V region RV and has become a jackpot is displayed. Information indicating the jackpot transition effect period is set in the storage area of the standby time management timer. In the command setting transmission process (step S233), predetermined transmission information indicating that the jackpot transition effect setting transmission process is to be executed is additionally stored in the transmission information storage area. On the other hand, when the game ball does not pass through the V region RV, the small hit flag is turned off without turning on the big hit flag, and the special area 2 non-operating is set in the setting area of the RAM 308. In the special figure 2 state updating process when the special figure 2 is not operating, the process proceeds to the next step S227 without doing anything.

  In the special figure 2 state update processing started at the timing when the predetermined jackpot transition effect period ends (timing when the value of the special figure 2 standby time management timer changes from 1 to 0), a predetermined opening period (for example, 29 seconds, Alternatively, a door member is connected to a solenoid (part of various solenoids 332) for driving the opening and closing of the door member of the variable winning opening 234 (until a winning of a predetermined number of game balls (for example, 10 balls) is detected in the variable winning opening 234). A signal for maintaining the open state is output, and information indicating the open period is set in a storage area of the door open time management timer provided in the RAM 308. Further, predetermined transmission information indicating that the special winning opening release setting transmission process is to be executed in the command setting transmission process (step S233) is additionally stored in the transmission information storage area.

  Also, in the special figure 2 state updating process started at the timing when the predetermined opening period ends (when the value of the door opening time management timer changes from 1 to 0), the predetermined closing period (for example, 1.5 seconds) A signal for holding the door member in a closed state is output to a solenoid (a part of various solenoids 332) for opening and closing the door member of the variable winning opening 234, and a storage area of a door closing time management timer provided in the RAM 308 is provided. Is set to indicate the closing period. Further, predetermined transmission information indicating that the special winning opening closing setting transmission process is to be executed in the command setting transmission process (step S233) is additionally stored in the transmission information storage area.

  In addition, in the special figure 2 state update processing that is repeated a predetermined number of times (in the illustrated embodiment, 15 rounds or 7 rounds excluding the first round) and starts at the end of the opening / closing control of the door member, a predetermined end effect period (for example, , 120 seconds), that is, storage of an effect standby time management timer provided in the RAM 308 for setting to wait for a period during which an image that informs the player of the end of the big hit by the decorative symbol display device 208 is displayed. Information indicating the effect waiting period is set in the area. If the normal figure probability variation flag is set to ON, the number of time savings (for example, once) is set in the time savings number storage unit provided in the RAM 308 at the same time when the big hit game ends, and Turn on the time saving flag that was set. If the ordinary figure probability variation flag is set to off, the number of times saved is not set in the number of times saved storage unit, and the time reduction flag is not turned on.

  Here, the time reduction means that the pachinko machine becomes in an advantageous state for the player in order to shorten the time from the end of the big hit in the special figure variable game to the start of the next big hit. If the time reduction flag is set to ON, it is in a state of high probability of general figure (probable change of general figure). The probability of hitting in the general fluctuating game is higher in the general figure high probability state than in the general figure low probability state. In addition, the fluctuation time of the general-floor fluctuation game is shorter in the general-figure high-probability state than in the general-figure low-probability state. Furthermore, the opening time in one opening of the pair of blade members 232a of the special figure 2 starting port 232 is more likely to be longer in the high-tumor state than in the low-probability state. In addition, the pair of blade members 232a are more likely to open in the high-probability state than in the low-probability state. The state in which any one of these changes is set is referred to as an electric support (start-up winning support by electric tulip) state.

  Further, as described above, the time reduction flag is set to off during the big hit game (during the special game state). Therefore, during the big hit game, the ordinary figure low probability state is maintained. This means that if the game is in the high probability state during the jackpot game, a predetermined number of variable prize openings 234 are set in the special figure 2 starting port 232 during the jackpot game until the game balls enter the ball. There is a problem that the number of game balls that can be acquired during a big hit increases when the ball hits and the gambling property is increased, and this is to solve this problem.

  Further, predetermined transmission information indicating that the end effect setting transmission processing is executed in the command setting transmission processing (step S233) is additionally stored in the transmission information storage area.

  Further, in the special figure 2 state update processing started at the timing when the predetermined end effect period ends (the timing when the value of the effect standby time management timer changes from 1 to 0), the special figure 2 non-operation is set in the setting area of the RAM 308. Set medium.

  Further, if the result of the special figure 2 variable game is a loss, the loss flag is turned on. When the outlier flag is on, the special figure 2 state update processing at the timing when the above-described predetermined stop display period ends (the timing when the value of the special figure 2 stop time management timer changes from 1 to 0) In the setting area of the RAM 308, the special figure 2 non-operation is set. In the special figure 2 state updating process when the special figure 2 is not operating, the process proceeds to the next step S227 without doing anything.

  Subsequently, a special figure state update process for the special figure 1 (special figure 1 state update processing) is performed (step S227). In the special figure 1 state update processing, one of the following plurality of processings is performed according to the state of the special figure 1.

  For example, in the special figure 1 state updating process during the special figure 1 change display (the value of the special figure 1 display symbol update timer is 1 or more), the 7-segment LED included in the special figure 1 display device 212 is turned on and off. The lighting / extinguishing drive control is repeated. By performing this control, the special figure 1 display device 212 performs the variable display of the special figure 1 (special figure 1 variable game). Further, in the command setting transmission process (step S233), predetermined transmission information indicating that the rotation start setting transmission process is to be executed is additionally stored in the above-described transmission information storage area, and then the process ends.

  Further, the RAM 308 of the main control unit 300 is provided with flags such as a 16R jackpot flag, an 8R jackpot flag, an outlier flag, and a universal map probability variation flag. These flags are set on or off based on the determined stop symbol in a special figure 1-related lottery process described later. In the special figure 1 state update processing started at the timing when the special figure 1 variable display time elapses (when the value of the special figure 1 display symbol update timer changes from 1 to 0), for example, the 16R big hit flag is turned on, The special map A and the 8R big hit flag shown in FIG. 5A are on when the probability variation flag is also on, the special figure B when the universal figure probability variation flag is also on, and the special figure when the off flag is on. In order to be in the respective modes shown in FIG. C, the 7-segment LED constituting the special figure 1 display device 212 is turned on / off, and the setting area of the RAM 308 is set to indicate that the special figure 1 is being stopped. . By performing this control, the special figure 1 display device 212 confirms and displays any one of the 16R big hit symbol (special figure A), the 8R big hit symbol (special figure B), and the lost symbol (special figure C). Do.

  After that, in order to maintain the display for a predetermined stop display period (for example, 500 ms), information indicating the stop period is set in the storage area of the special figure 1 stop time management timer provided in the RAM 308. With this setting, the specially displayed special figure 2 is stopped and displayed for a predetermined period, and the result of the special figure 1 variable game is notified to the player. If the number of time savings stored in the time savings number storage unit provided in the RAM 308 is 1 or more, 1 is subtracted from the number of time savings. If not, turn off the time reduction flag. Further, the time reduction flag is turned off even during the big hit game (during the special game state).

  Also, in the command setting transmission process (step S233), predetermined transmission information indicating that the rotation stop setting transmission process is to be executed is additionally stored in the above-described transmission information storage area, and the symbol for stopping the variable display is shown in FIG. The special figure 2 identification information indicating the presence is additionally stored in the RAM 308 as information to be included in the command data described later, and then the processing is terminated.

  If the result of the special figure 1 variable game is a big hit, the big hit flag is turned on. When the big hit flag is on, the RAM 308 is set in the special figure 1 state update processing at the timing when the predetermined stop display period ends (timing when the value of the special figure 1 stop time management timer changes from 1 to 0). To set the special figure 1 in operation in the area and wait for a predetermined winning effect period (for example, 3 seconds), that is, a period during which an image notifying the player of the start of the big hit by the decorative symbol display device 208 is displayed. Then, information indicating the winning effect period is set in the storage area of the special figure 2 standby time management timer provided in the RAM 308. Further, predetermined transmission information indicating that the winning effect setting transmission process is to be executed in the command setting transmission process (step S233) is additionally stored in the transmission information storage area.

  Further, in the special figure 1 state update processing started at the timing when the predetermined winning effect period ends (when the value of the special figure 1 standby time management timer changes from 1 to 0), a predetermined opening period (for example, 29 seconds) Or a solenoid (a part of various solenoids 332) for driving the opening and closing of the door member of the variable winning opening 234 (until a winning of a predetermined number of balls (for example, 10 balls) is detected in the variable winning opening 234). Is output, and information indicating the opening period is set in the storage area of the door opening time management timer provided in the RAM 308. Further, predetermined transmission information indicating that the special winning opening release setting transmission process is to be executed in the command setting transmission process (step S233) is additionally stored in the transmission information storage area.

  Also, in the special figure 1 state update processing started at the timing when the predetermined opening period ends (when the value of the door opening time management timer changes from 1 to 0), the predetermined closing period (for example, 1.5 seconds) A signal for holding the door member in a closed state is output to a solenoid (a part of various solenoids 332) for opening and closing the door member of the variable winning opening 234, and a storage area of a door closing time management timer provided in the RAM 308 is provided. Is set to indicate the closing period. Further, predetermined transmission information indicating that the special winning opening closing setting transmission process is to be executed in the command setting transmission process (step S233) is additionally stored in the transmission information storage area.

  In addition, the opening / closing control of the door member is repeated a predetermined number of times (in this embodiment, 16 rounds or 8 rounds), and in the special figure 1 state updating process started at the timing when the control is completed, a predetermined end effect period (for example, 120 seconds) That is, in order to set to wait for a period during which an image notifying the player of the end of the big hit by the decorative symbol display device 208 is displayed, the effect standby is stored in the storage area of the effect standby time management timer provided in the RAM 308. Set information indicating the period. If the normal figure probability variation flag is set to ON, the number of time savings (for example, 99 times) is set in the time savings number storage unit provided in the RAM 308 and the RAM 308 is provided simultaneously with the end of the big hit game. Turn on the time saving flag that was set. If the ordinary figure probability variation flag is set to off, the number of times saved is not set in the number of times saved storage unit, and the time reduction flag is not turned on.

  Further, predetermined transmission information indicating that the end effect setting transmission processing is executed in the command setting transmission processing (step S233) is additionally stored in the transmission information storage area.

  Further, in the special figure 1 state update processing started at the timing when the predetermined end effect period ends (timing when the value of the effect standby time management timer changes from 1 to 0), the special figure 1 non-operation is set in the setting area of the RAM 308. Set medium.

  Further, if the result of the special figure 1 variable game is a loss, the loss flag is turned on. When the outlier flag is ON, the special figure 1 state update processing at the timing when the above-described predetermined stop display period ends (the timing when the value of the special figure 1 stop time management timer changes from 1 to 0) In the setting area of the RAM 308, the special figure 2 non-operation is set. In the special figure 1 state updating process when the special figure 1 is not operating, the process proceeds to the next step S229 without doing anything.

  When the special figure state update processing in step S225 and step S227 is completed, special figure related lottery processing is performed for each of special figure 1 and special figure 2. Here too, the special figure-related lottery processing for special figure 2 (special figure 2 related lottery processing) is first performed (step S229), and thereafter, the special figure-related lottery processing for special figure 1 (special figure 1 related lottery processing) Is performed (step S231). In the special drawing 2 related lottery process, the special game 1 and the special drawing 2 are not performing the floating game, and the special figure 2 is in a non-operating state and the special figure 2 is suspended. It is executed using the first special figure 2 winning random number value and the special figure 2 random number value in the special figure 2 random value storage area, with the condition that the number of variable games is 1 or more as a start condition. In the special figure 1 related lottery process, the special game 1 and the special figure 2 are not performing the variable game, and the special figure 1 and the special figure 2 are both inactive and are suspended. Assuming that the number of variable games is 1 or more, the execution is performed using the first special figure 1 winning random number and the special figure 1 random number in the special figure 1 random number storage area.

  Also in these special figure related lottery processes, the main controller 300 performs the special figure 2 related lottery processing prior to the special figure 1 related lottery processing, so that the start condition of the special figure 2 variable game and the special figure 1 variable Even if the game start conditions are satisfied at the same time, the special figure 2 variable game does not start changing because the special figure 2 variable game is changing first. In addition, when the reserved number of the special figure 2 variable game is one or more, the lottery process and the variable game relating to the reservation of the special figure 1 variable game are not performed. In addition, the notification of the result of the determination as to whether or not the special figure fluctuating game is performed by the decorative symbol display device 208 is performed by the first sub-control unit 400, and the notification of the lottery result of the lottery based on the winning in the special figure 2 start port 232 The lottery is performed prior to the notification of the lottery result of the lottery based on the winning of the special figure 1 starting port 230. In the present embodiment, a special figure variable game having a high degree of advantage (in this example, special figure 2 variable game) is given priority over a special figure variable game having a low degree of advantage (in this example, special figure 1 variable game). For this reason, it may be easy to give a difference in the advantage of the gaming state.

  In the case of the special figure 2 related lottery process of step S229, the main control unit 300 starts the special figure 2 start information (special) from the earliest (earliestly stored) reserved position in the special figure 2 random value storage area. (FIG. 2 winning random number value and special figure 2 random number value set), and based on the special figure 2 winning random number value and the like in the acquired special figure 2 starting information, by using the winning / failing determination table stored in the ROM 306. A decision is made as to whether to make a small hit or a loss (whether or not). It should be noted that, in the determination of whether the special map 1 is correct or not, a decision is made as to whether to make a big hit or a loss. Next, the main control unit 300 uses the special figure determination table stored in the ROM 306 based on the special figure 2 random number value in the acquired special figure 2 start information and the determined result of the determination of success / failure, and the like. A symbol (stop symbol) to be stopped and displayed after the fluctuation display is determined. Next, the main control unit 300 stores in the ROM 306 based on, for example, the determined hit / fail judgment result, the stop symbol, the special figure 2 hold number at the time of the hit / fail judgment, the obtained special figure variation time determination random number value, and the like. The variable display time (timer number) of the special figure 2 is determined using various tables.

  After fetching the first special figure 2 start information from the special figure 2 random value storage area, the main controller 300 deletes the first special figure 2 start information from the special figure 2 random value storage area, 2 subtracts 1 from the special figure 2 reserved number in the reserved number storage area. At this time, the special figure 2 start information extracted from the special figure 2 random number storage area is stored in a temporary area provided in the RAM 308, and the above-described determination is made based on the special figure 2 start information stored in this temporary area. You may do so.

  After the special figure 2 related lottery process (step S229), the special figure 1 related lottery process (step S231) is performed in the same manner. Note that the order of the special figure 1 related lottery processing and the special figure 2 related lottery processing may be reversed.

  In the above description, the special figure 2 variable game with a high advantage is started in preference to the special figure 1 variable game with a low advantage, and the reservation of the special figure 2 is digested with a higher priority than the reservation of the special figure 1. The special figure 2 priority change is taken as an example, but the special figure 1 variable game with low advantage is started before the special figure 2 variable game with high advantage, and the reservation of special figure 1 The special figure 1 priority change which is digested prior to the reservation may be used. Also, without giving priority to either the special figure 2 variable game with high advantage or the special figure 1 variable game with low advantage, the special figure variable game related to the reservation of each of the special figure 1 and the special figure 2 is a starting opening prize. The starting opening winning order may be changed in order. In the starting opening winning order change, the maximum number of suspensions is eight regardless of Toku-zu 1 and Toku-zu 2, so it is compared with the priority variation in which the upper-limit number of suspension is 4 in each of Toku-zu 1 and Toku-zu 2. In some cases, the upper limit of the number of holds can be increased.

  Further, in the above description, the lottery process and the variable game relating to the holding of the other special figure are not performed in accordance with the state of one special figure, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the above-described special figure state update is not performed. The process and the special figure related lottery process may be performed independently for each of the special figure 1 and the special figure 2, so that a plurality of special figures may be changed simultaneously. In the case where a plurality of special figures are simultaneously changed as described above, the decorative symbol display device 208 is provided with a plurality of areas for displaying the lottery results of each special figure, or the lottery results of each special figure are displayed. A plurality of decorative symbol display devices may be provided to display the lottery results separately, or one display may display the lottery results of a plurality of special figures. Further, when fluctuations regarding a plurality of special figures are simultaneously performed, the lottery result of the special figure whose fluctuation has been stopped earlier may influence the lottery result of the special figure whose fluctuation is stopped later.

  In step S233 following step S231, a command setting transmission process is performed. In this command setting transmission process, various commands are transmitted to the first sub control unit 400. The output schedule information to be transmitted to the first sub-control unit 400 is composed of, for example, 16 bits, bit 15 is strobe information (when ON, it indicates that data is set), and bits 11 to 14 are Command type (in the present embodiment, a basic command, a symbol variation start command, a symbol variation stop command, a winning effect start command, an end effect start command, a big hit round number designation command, a power recovery command, a RAM clear command, a pre-read result information command, Bits 0 to 10 are composed of command data (predetermined information corresponding to the command type).

  Specifically, the strobe information is turned on or off in the command transmission processing described above. If the command type is the symbol change start (rotation start) command, the command data includes information indicating various big hit flags, small hit flags, missed flags, the timer number selected in the special drawing related lottery process, and the like, In the case of the symbol fluctuation stop (rotation stop) command, the value of various big hit flags, small hit flags, and loss flags is included, and in the case of the big hit round number designation command, the number of big hit rounds is included. When the command type indicates the basic command, the command data includes device information, presence / absence of a prize in the special figure 1 starting port 230, presence / absence of a prize in the special figure 2 starting port 232, presence / absence of a prize in the variable winning port 234, and the like. including. In the case of the prefetch result information command, the command data includes information such as the types of the special figures 1 and 2, the number of prefetches stored in the prefetch number storage area, and the stop symbols stored in the prefetch result storage unit. In the case of a setting command, the information includes setting information.

  In the above-described rotation start setting transmission processing, the command data is selected by the values of various big hit flags, small hit flags, and loss flags stored in the RAM 308, and the special figure 1 related lottery processing and the special figure 2 related lottery processing. The information indicating the number of the timer, the number of special figure 1 variable games or the number of special figure 2 variable games held, and the like are set. In the above-described rotation stop setting transmission processing, information indicating the values of various big hit flags, small hit flags, and loss flags stored in the RAM 308 is set in the command data.

  In the above-described winning effect setting transmission process, the command data stored in the RAM 308, the effect control information to be output to the decorative symbol display device 208, the various lamps 418, and the speakers 120 during the winning effect period, Information indicating the number of 1 variable games or special figure 2 variable games is set. In the above-described end effect setting transmission processing, the command data is stored in the RAM 308, the effect control information to be output to the decorative symbol display device 208, the various lamps 418, and the speakers 120 during the effect standby period, and the reserved special figure. Information indicating the number of 1 variable games or special figure 2 variable games is set. In the above-described special winning opening release setting transmission process, information indicating the number of jackpot rounds stored in the RAM 308, the number of special figure 1 variable games or special figure 2 variable games held, etc. is set in the command data. In the above-mentioned special winning opening closing setting transmission processing, information indicating the number of jackpot rounds stored in the RAM 308, the number of special figure 1 variable games or special figure 2 variable games held, and the like are set in the command data.

  In addition, in this step S233, a general command special figure reservation increasing process is also performed. In this general command special figure reservation increase processing, special figure identification information (information indicating the special figure 1 or special figure 2) stored in the command information in the transmission information storage area of the RAM 308, and advance notice information (advance notice information, false notice) Set either advance notice information or no advance notice information).

  The first sub-control unit 400 can determine the effect control according to the change of the game control in the main control unit 300, based on the command type included in the received output schedule information, and is included in the output schedule information. The effect control contents can be determined based on the information of the command data.

  In step S235 following step S233, an external output signal setting process is performed. In the external output signal setting process, the game information stored in the RAM 308 is output to the information input circuit 350 separate from the pachinko machine 100 via the information output circuit 336.

  In step S237 subsequent to step S235, device monitoring processing is performed. In this device monitoring process, the signal states of the various sensors stored in the signal state storage area in step S205 are read, and the presence or absence of a predetermined error, for example, the presence of a front frame door opening error or the presence of a lower plate full error is monitored. . When the front frame door opening error or the lower plate full error is detected, the transmission information to be transmitted to the first sub-control unit 400 includes device information indicating the presence or absence of the front frame door opening error or the lower plate full error. Set. In addition, various solenoids 332 are driven to control the opening and closing of the special figure 2 starting port 232 and the variable winning opening 234, and the general figure display device 210 and the special figure 1 display device 212 via the drive circuits 324, 326 and 330. The display data to be output to the special figure 2 display device 214, the various status display units 328, and the like are set to the output port of the I / O 310. The output schedule information set in the payout request number transmission process (step S219) is output to the payout control unit 600 via the output port of the I / O 310.

  In step S239 subsequent to step S237, it is monitored whether the low voltage signal is on. When the low-voltage signal is on (when the power-off is detected), the process proceeds to step S243. When the low-voltage signal is off (when the power-off is not detected), the process proceeds to step S241. In step S241, a timer interrupt end process is performed. In the timer interrupt end processing, the values of the registers temporarily saved in step S201 are set in the original registers, interrupt permission is set, and the like, and then the main control unit main processing shown in FIG. Return to. On the other hand, in step S243, a specific variable and a stack pointer for returning to the state at the time of power failure when power is restored are saved as return data in a predetermined area of the RAM 308, and power failure processing such as initialization of input / output ports is performed. And then enter the HALT state.

  Next, it is used in the general drawing related lottery processing (step S223), the special figure 2 related lottery processing (step S229), and the special figure 1 related lottery processing (step S231) in the main control unit timer interrupt processing shown in FIG. The success / failure determination table will be described with reference to FIG. Here, FIG. 8A is a diagram illustrating an example of the contents of a general-purpose figure determination high probability table, and FIG. 8B is a diagram illustrating an example of the contents of a general-purpose figure determination low probability table. FIG. 8C is a diagram showing an example of the contents of the special figure setting 1 hit / fail determination table, and FIG. 8D is a view showing an example of the contents of the special figure setting 2 hit / fail determination table. 8 (e) is a diagram showing an example of the contents of the special figure 1 setting 3 hit / fail judgment table, and FIG. 8 (f) is a view showing an example of the contents of the special figure 2 hit / fail judgment table. is there.

  The high probability table for general figure determination shown in FIG. 8A is a general figure validity determination table used when the general probability at the time of general figure validity determination is high. As shown in FIG. 8 (a), when the hit / fail judgment table is used, the hit probability is 99/100 (that is, 99%), and the probability of a miss is 1%. Comparing the hit / fail judgment table with the hit / fail judgment table shown in FIG. 8B, the hit probability is 99 times. It should be noted that it may be designed such that only the hit is selected in the normal figure high probability state (at the time of working hours).

  The high probability table for general figure determination shown in FIG. 8B is a general figure validity determination table used when the general figure probability at the time of general figure validity determination is low. As shown in FIG. 8 (b), when the hit / fail judgment table is used, the hit probability is 1/100 (that is, 1%), and the probability of a miss is 99/100.

  8 (c) to 8 (e) are tables that are referred to when performing the hit / fail judgment of the special figure 1, and are shown in FIG. 8 (c). The determination table is a table that is referred to when setting 1 is selected in the setting change process (step S117) illustrated in FIG. 6, and the special figure 1 setting 2 hit / fail determination table illustrated in FIG. Similarly, this table is referred to when setting 2 is selected, and the special figure 1 setting 3 hit / fail determination table shown in FIG. 8E is a table referred to when setting 3 is similarly selected. is there.

  In setting 1, a jackpot is selected with a probability of 298/65536 as a result of the jackpot lottery determination of Toku-zu, and in setting 2, a jackpot is selected with a probability of 328/65536 as the jackpot lottery determination result of toku-zu 1 In the setting 3, the big hit is selected with a probability of 364/65536 as a result of the success / failure determination of the big hit lottery in the special figure 1. That is, it is more likely that a big hit will occur when setting 2 is selected than in setting 1, and a big hit will be more likely when setting 3 is selected than in setting 2.

  The special figure 2 hit / fail judgment table shown in FIG. 8F is a table which is referred to when performing the hit / judge judgment of the special figure 2, and is 13107 as the hit / pull determination result of the special drawing 2 regardless of the setting. A small hit is selected with a probability of / 65536, and a large hit is not selected. The table may be set so that the big hit is selected. In this case, for example, when the big hit symbol stops, the big hit game may be started without passing through the V region RV. As described above, in the present embodiment, a small hit is obtained at about 1/5, and thereafter, a large hit is generated when the game ball passes through the V region RV. The big hit is more likely to occur in No. 2, but in the time-saving state that shifts after the big hit game in the case of special hit 1 in the special figure 1, since the time-saving state continues until the symbol change display is performed 99 times, it is substantially Although it is easy to become a big hit immediately, in the time-saving state where the game shifts after the big hit game in the case of a special hit in the special map 2, since there is only a period in which the symbol change display is performed once, substantially five times The symbol change display by Toku-zu 2 is a chance to stay in a special villa. When the special-figure 2 is no longer on hold and the symbol-variation display in Toku-zu 2 is over, the chance for a villa is over and the big hit by Toku-zu 1 is returned. It will be aimed. As described above, the present embodiment may be referred to as a so-called one-type and two-type mixer.

  Next, the processing of the first sub control unit 400 will be described. FIG. 9A is a flowchart of a main process executed by the CPU 404 of the first sub control unit 400. First, in step S301 in FIG. 9A, various initial settings are performed. When the power is turned on, first, an initialization process is executed in step S301. In this initialization processing, initialization of input / output ports, initialization processing of a storage area in the RAM 408, and the like are performed.

  In step S303 subsequent to step S301, it is determined whether or not the timer variable is 10 or more. This process is repeated until the timer variable becomes 10. When the timer variable becomes 10 or more, the process proceeds to step S305. . In step S305, 0 is substituted for a timer variable.

  In step S307 following step S305, command processing is performed. The CPU 404 of the first sub control unit 400 determines whether a command has been received from the main control unit 300.

  In step S309 following step S307, effect control processing is performed. For example, when there is a new command in step S307, processing such as reading the effect data corresponding to the command from the ROM 406 is performed, and when effect data needs to be updated, effect data updating processing is performed.

  In step S311, following step S309, chance button control processing is performed. In the chance button control processing, the operation of the effect button 136 or the operation key unit 190 is detected, and the effect data updated in step S309 is converted to the effect data corresponding to the operation of the effect button 136 or the operation key unit 190 in accordance with the detection result. Is performed.

  In step S313 following step S311, a sound control process is performed. In the sound control process, if the effect data read in step S309 includes a command to the sound source IC 416, the command is output to the sound source IC 416.

  In step S315 following step S313, a lamp control process is performed. In the lamp control process, when the effect data read in step S309 includes a command to the various lamps 442 and 452, the command is output to the game board lamp driving circuit 440 and the game frame lamp driving circuit 450. I do.

  In step S317 subsequent to step S315, a movable body control process is performed. For example, when there is an instruction to the effect devices 2 to 5 in the effect data read in step S309, the instruction is output to the drive circuit 422.

  In step S319 following step S317, an information transmission process is performed. In the information transmission process, if there is a control command to be transmitted to the second sub-control unit 500 in the effect data read in step S309, a setting is made to output this control command. Then, the process returns to step S303.

  FIG. 9B is a flowchart of the first sub-control unit command reception interruption process (strobe interruption process) executed by the CPU 404 of the first sub-control unit 400. The command reception interrupt process is a process executed when the first sub control unit 400 detects a strobe signal from the main control unit 300. In step S331 of the command reception interrupt process, the command received from the main control unit 300 is stored as an unprocessed command in a command storage area provided in the RAM 408.

  FIG. 9C is a flowchart of the first sub-controller timer interrupt processing executed by the CPU 404 of the first sub-controller 400. The first sub-control unit 400 includes a hardware timer that generates a timer interrupt at a predetermined period (once every 2 ms in the present embodiment). Execute in the cycle of In step S341 of the first sub-controller timer interrupt processing, 1 is added to the value of the timer variable storage area of the RAM 408 described in step S303 of the first sub-controller main processing, and the value is stored in the original timer variable storage area. I do. Therefore, in step S303, the value of the timer variable is determined to be 10 or more every 20 ms (2 ms × 10).

  In step S343 following step S341, transmission of a control command to the second sub-control unit 500 set in the information transmission process of the first sub-control unit main process (step S319), and other update processing of random number values for effect And so on.

  Next, the processing of the second sub control unit 500 will be described. FIG. 10A is a flowchart of a main process executed by a CPU (not shown) of the second sub control unit 500. First, in step S401 in FIG. 10A, various initial settings are performed. When the power is turned on, first, an initialization process is executed in step S401. In this initialization processing, initialization of input / output ports, initialization of a storage area in a RAM (not shown), and the like are performed.

  In step S403 following step S401, it is determined whether or not the timer variable is 10 or more. This process is repeated until the timer variable becomes 10. When the timer variable becomes 10 or more, the process proceeds to step S405. . In step S405, 0 is substituted for the timer variable.

  In step S407 following step S405, command processing is performed. The CPU of the second sub-control unit 500 determines whether a command has been received from the first sub-control unit 400.

  In step S409 following step S407, effect control processing is performed. For example, when there is a new command in step S407, processing such as reading the effect data (effect data by the decorative design display device 208) corresponding to this command from a ROM (not shown) is performed, and the effect data is updated. Is performed, the effect data is updated.

  In step S411 following step S409, an image control process is performed. In the image control process, if the effect data read in step S409 includes a command to the VDP 516, the command is output to the VDP 516 (details will be described later). Then, the process returns to step S403.

  FIG. 10B is a flowchart of a command reception interrupt process executed by the CPU of the second sub control unit 500. The command reception interrupt process is a process executed when the second sub-control unit 500 detects a strobe signal from the first sub-control unit 400. In step S431 of the command reception interrupt process, the command received from the first sub-control unit 400 is stored as an unprocessed command in a command storage area provided in the RAM.

  FIG. 10C is a flowchart of the timer interrupt process executed by the CPU of the second sub control unit 500. The second sub-control unit 500 includes a hardware timer that generates a timer interrupt at a predetermined cycle (once every 2 ms in the present embodiment), and the timer interrupt triggers the timer interrupt processing. Execute in the cycle of In step S441 of the timer interrupt processing, 1 is added to the value of the timer variable storage area of the RAM described in step S403 of the second sub-control unit main processing, and the result is stored in the original timer variable storage area. Therefore, in step S403, the value of the timer variable is determined to be 10 or more every 20 ms (2 ms × 10). In step S443 following step S441, other processing such as updating of the effect random number value is performed.

  FIG. 10D is a flowchart of the image control process in step S411 of the second sub control unit main process. In step S451, an instruction to transfer image data (movie data and texture data to be described later) is issued. Here, the CPU 504 first swaps the designation of the drawing areas of the frame buffer 1 and the frame buffer 2 of the VRAM 518. As a result, the image of one frame stored in the frame buffer not specified as the drawing area is displayed on the decorative symbol display device 208. Next, the CPU 504 sets ROM coordinates (the transfer source address of the ROM 506), VRAM coordinates (the transfer destination address of the VRAM 518), and the like in the attribute register of the VDP 516 based on the position information table and the like. Set an instruction to start data transfer. The VDP 516 transfers image data from the ROM 506 to the VRAM 518 based on a command set in the attribute register. After that, the VDP 516 outputs a transfer end interrupt signal to the CPU 504.

  In step S453 following step S451, it is determined whether or not a transfer end interrupt signal from the VDP 516 has been input. If a transfer end interrupt signal has been input (step S453: Yes), the process proceeds to step S455. Otherwise (step S453: No), it waits for a transfer end interrupt signal to be input.

  In step S455, parameters are set based on the rendering scenario configuration table and the attribute data. Here, in order to form a display image in the frame buffer 1 or 2 of the VRAM 518 based on the image data transferred to the VRAM 518 in step S451, the CPU 504 determines the information of the image data constituting the display image (the coordinate axes and the image size of the VRAM 518). , VRAM coordinates (arrangement coordinates, etc.) to the VDP 516. The VDP 516 performs parameter setting according to the attribute based on the instruction stored in the attribute register.

  In step S457 subsequent to step S455, a drawing instruction is issued. In this drawing instruction, the CPU 504 instructs the VDP 516 to start drawing an image. The VDP 516 starts drawing an image in the frame buffer according to an instruction from the CPU 504.

  In step S459 following step S457, it is determined whether or not a generation end interrupt signal has been input from the VDP 516 based on the end of image rendering. If the generation end interrupt signal has been input (step S459: Yes), The process proceeds to step S461, and if not (step S459: No), the process waits for the generation end interrupt signal to be input.

  In step S461, a scene display counter, which is set in a predetermined area of the RAM 508 and counts how many images have been generated, is incremented (+1), and the process ends.

  Next, a specific configuration of the accessory ratio / setting display 196 and the dip switch board 198 will be described with reference to FIG. Here, FIG. 11A is a diagram showing an example of a specific configuration of the accessory ratio / setting display 196, and FIG. 11B is a diagram showing an example of a specific configuration of the dip switch board 198. It is.

  As described above, the accessory ratio / setting display 196 includes the accessory ratio monitor and the setting monitor. The accessory ratio monitor includes a continuous accessory ratio (RY) and an accessory ratio ( YH), and the setting monitor displays the current set value.

  Here, the continuous bonus ratio is the number of game balls to be acquired (that is, safe balls) due to the operation of the bonus when the bonus is operated continuously (that is, variable winning during the big hit game). (The number of game balls obtained by opening the mouth 234 and winning). The ratio may be a ratio of the number of game balls obtained by winning the variable winning opening 234 to the number of out balls. In addition, the accessory ratio means that the number of game balls to be acquired (that is, safe balls) is due to the operation of the accessory (that is, the second special figure starting port 232B and the variable winning port 234 are opened and a prize is won). The number of game balls obtained by the game). The ratio of the number of game balls obtained by winning the variable winning opening 234, the first special figure starting port 230, the second special figure starting ports 232A and 232B, and the general winning ports 226a and 226b to the number of out balls. May be.

  In the present embodiment, as a result of calculating the continuous character ratio, if it is determined that the continuous character ratio exceeds 60%, the two-digit 7-segment LED for displaying the continuous character ratio blinks, and thereafter, And outputs a security signal (RY). Here, the security signal (RY) is an error signal output when the continuous accessory ratio exceeds 60%, and is output outside the pachinko machine 100 via the information output circuit 336. It should be noted that the output may be from a test terminal that can be mounted on the main board 156. As a result, the type application test of the gaming machine can be smoothly performed in some cases.

  Also, as a result of calculating the accessory ratio, if it is determined that the accessory ratio exceeds 70%, a 2-digit 7-segment LED for displaying the accessory ratio is blinked, and thereafter, the security signal (YH ) Is output. Here, the security signal (YH) is an error signal output when the accessory ratio exceeds 70%, and is output outside the pachinko machine 100 via the information output circuit 336.

  In the present embodiment, when the continuous accessory ratio or the accessory ratio exceeds the upper limit of the normal value, the predetermined 7-segment LED blinks. However, for example, the emission color is changed. Is also good.

  As shown in FIG. 11B, eight dip switches are provided on the dip switch board 198. Each DIP switch is connected to the first sub-board 160, and can read the position of each DIP switch when the power is turned on, and change the appearance probability of the effect. For example, the frequency of executing the setting suggestion and the advance notice The appearance rate, the entry rate of the effect mode, and the like can be set.

  Next, the notice effect determination processing executed by the CPU 404 of the first sub control unit 400 will be described with reference to FIG. Here, FIG. 12 is a flowchart illustrating the notice effect determination processing. The announcement effect determination process is performed, for example, when the main control unit 300 pre-reads that the special (SP) reach is to be executed in the special figure pre-reading process (FIG. 7: step S224) in the main control unit timer interrupt process. A prefetch result information command including information indicating that the execution of the SP reach has been prefetched is transmitted from the control unit 300 to the first control unit 400, and after the first control unit 400 receives this, the next symbol variation display is displayed. This is a process to be started when such a symbol variation start command is received. In this embodiment, in order to facilitate the description, when the SP reach is executed, the pre-read result information command including the information to that effect is transmitted. When the symbol variation display is prefetched, a prefetch result information command including information on the symbol variation display may be transmitted.

  First, the CPU 404 of the first sub control unit 400 determines whether the prefetch flag has already been set in the RAM 408 (step S501). The prefetch flag is a flag that is set when a prefetch result information command is received from the main control unit 300, and is cleared when the prefetch notice ends.

  When the CPU 404 determines that the prefetch flag is set (step S501; Yes), the CPU 404 determines whether the continuous announcement flag is set (step S503). The continuous announcement flag is a flag that is set during execution of the continuous announcement, and is cleared when the continuous announcement ends. On the other hand, when it is not determined that the prefetch flag is set (step S501; No), the notice effect determination processing ends.

  When not determining that the continuous announcement flag is set (step S503; No), the CPU 404 executes a continuous announcement lottery process (step S505). More specifically, the lottery is performed using the big hit SP reach selection continuous announcement selection table shown in FIG. 13A or the out-of-SP reach selection continuous announcement selection table shown in FIG. 13B. Here, FIG. 13A is a diagram showing an example of the contents of the continuous announcement selection table when the big hit SP reach is selected, and FIG. 13B is an example of the contents of the continuous announcement selection table when the outlying SP reach is selected. FIG.

  In the continuous announcement lottery process, if the CPU 404 receives a prefetch result information command including information that prefetches that the jackpot SP reach is to be executed, the continuous announcement table at the time of the jackpot SP reach selection shown in FIG. When a pre-read result information command including the pre-read information indicating that the selected out-of-SP-reach is to be executed is received, the out-of-SP-reach selection continuous announcement table shown in FIG. 13B is selected. It should be noted that the same table is selected as the continuous announcement table at the time of the SP hit selection and the continuous announcement table at the time of the SP reach selection. Therefore, when a pre-read result information command including information that pre-reads that the jackpot SP reach (or out-of-SP reach) is to be executed is received, the continuous notice is executed with the same probability regardless of the setting. It will be. In fact, since the jackpot probability is different between the settings, it can be said that the probability of occurrence of the continuous notice is also different between the settings as a whole, but it is read ahead that the jackpot SP reach is executed. It can also be said that the probability that the continuous notice is executed in the case where it is performed and the probability that the continuous notice is executed when the execution of the miss SP reach is pre-read is the same regardless of the setting.

  As shown in FIG. 13A, when performing the continuous announcement lottery using the continuous announcement selection table when the big hit SP reach is selected, the CPU 404 determines that the continuous announcement is executed with a probability of 50%, It is determined that the continuous notice is not executed with the probability. Further, as shown in FIG. 13B, when performing the continuous preview lottery using the continuous preview selection table at the time of selecting the out-of-SP reach, the CPU 404 determines that the continuous preview is to be executed with a probability of 20%. It is determined that the continuous notice is not executed with a probability of%.

  As a result of executing the continuous announcement lottery process, the CPU 404 determines whether or not the continuous announcement has been won (step S507). When it is determined that the continuous announcement has been won (step S507; Yes), the CPU 404 sets the continuous announcement flag (step S509), and then changes the combination of the decorative symbols to “decoration 3—decoration 5—decoration 7”. (Step S511), and the announcement effect determination process ends. Here, the combination of the chances of “decoration 3−decoration 5−decoration 7” is a combination of out-of-order decoration symbols, and is a combination of decoration symbols stopped and displayed when a specific condition is satisfied. In the present embodiment, there are a case where a continuous notice using a stop symbol of a decorative symbol is executed as a pre-read notice and a case where a stop is displayed in a combination of chances when performing a setting suggestion to be described later.

  If the CPU 404 determines in step S503 that the continuous announcement flag is set (step S503; Yes), the CPU 404 executes the processing of step S511 without executing the processing of steps S505 to S509. , Set the combination of decorative patterns to the chance.

  If the CPU 404 determines in step S507 that the winning of the continuous notice has not been won (step S507; No), the CPU 404 shifts to the process of step S513, and the symbol variation display is rotated 50 times after the power is turned on. It is determined whether or not it is below (step S513). When the CPU 404 determines that the symbol variation display is 50 rotations or less after the power is turned on (step S513; Yes), it is determined whether or not a stop display of a chance as a suggestive effect was performed in the previous symbol variation display. Is determined (step S515).

  If it is not determined that the suggestion effect has been executed in the previous symbol change display (step S515; No), the CPU 404 executes the suggestion effect execution lottery process (step S517). Specifically, the setting suggestion effect selection table for setting 1 SP reach selection shown in FIG. 13C, the setting suggestion effect selection table for setting 2 SP reach selection shown in FIG. 13D, and FIG. The lottery is performed by using the setting suggestion effect selection table at the time of selecting the SP reach for setting 3 shown in FIG. Here, FIG. 13C is a diagram showing an example of the contents of the setting suggestion effect selection table when the SP reach for setting 1 is selected, and FIG. 13D is a diagram illustrating the setting suggestion effect selection when the SP reach for setting 2 is selected. It is a figure which shows about an example of the content of a table, and the figure (e) which shows an example of the content of the setting suggestion effect selection table at the time of the SP reach for setting 3 is shown.

  In the suggested effect execution lottery process, the CPU 404 refers to the SP reach selected setting suggested effect selection table corresponding to the selected setting. When the suggestion effect execution lottery is performed by using the setting suggestion effect selection table for setting 1 SP reach selection shown in FIG. 13C, it is determined that the suggestion effect is to be executed with a probability of 20%, and 80% It is determined that the suggested effect is not executed with the probability. In addition, when the lottery of the suggestion effect is performed by using the setting suggestion effect selection table at the time of setting 2 SP reach selection shown in FIG. 13D, it is determined that the suggestion effect is to be executed with a probability of 30%. It is determined that the suggested effect is not executed with a probability of%. In addition, when the lottery of the suggestion effect is performed using the setting effect selection table for setting 3 SP reach selection shown in FIG. 13E, it is determined that the suggestion effect is to be executed with a probability of 50%. It is determined that the suggested effect is not executed with a probability of%. Therefore, if the jackpot SP reach and the off-SP reach are executed, and if the continuous lottery execution lottery is omitted, the suggestion effect execution lottery may be performed. Is different.

  As described above, in the present embodiment, when the symbol variation display is 50 rotations or less after the power is turned on, a suggestion effect described later may be executed, and when the symbol change display exceeds 50 rotations, the suggestion effect is performed. It is configured not to run. In the present embodiment, the suggestion effect is executed on condition that the symbol variation display is within 50 rotations after the power is turned on. However, the period during which the suggestion effect can be executed may be appropriately set. Alternatively, the period in which the suggested effect can be executed may not be set.

  Further, in the present embodiment, when the stop display of the chance effect as the suggested effect is performed in the previous symbol change display, the suggestion effect execution lottery is not performed in the next symbol change display. This prevents the production from being performed continuously, so that the player may be discouraged that the production was not a continuous production, but may be set so high that a chance as a suggested production appears. In some cases, you can have expectations.

  In the present embodiment, the table is set so that the probability of executing the suggested effect changes according to the selected setting, but the setting is not changed when the setting is changed. The table may be set so that the suggested effect is more easily executed than in the case. Further, the table may be set so that the suggested effect is more easily executed when the setting is changed to the high setting than when the setting is not changed.

  As a result of executing the suggested effect execution lottery process, the CPU 404 determines whether or not the execution of the suggested effect has been won (step S519). If it is determined that the execution of the suggestion effect has been won (step S519; Yes), the CPU 404 sets the combination of the decorative patterns so as to be the combination of the chances of “decoration 3-decoration 5-decoration 7” ( After clearing the pre-read flag (step S521), the notice effect determination processing ends. In the present embodiment, as in the continuous announcement, the stop display is performed in a combination of the decorative patterns of the chance of “decoration 3−decoration 5−decoration 7” in the same manner as in the continuous announcement, thereby specifying either the continuous announcement or the suggestion effect. Although it is not possible, the player may be able to have some expectations.

  On the other hand, when the CPU 404 determines in step S513 that the symbol variation display is not more than 50 rotations after the power is turned on (step S513; No), the CPU 404 determines that the suggestion effect was executed in the previous symbol variation display. (Step S515; Yes), and when it is not determined that the winning has been performed in the execution of the suggestion effect (Step S519; No), after executing the process of Step S523 to clear the prefetch flag, the notice effect is performed. The determination processing ends.

  In the present embodiment, when the execution of the SP reach is prefetched (that is, when it is prefetched that the specific variation time is selected), the lottery of the continuous announcement effect and the execution lottery of the setting suggestion effect are performed. As described above, with respect to the setting suggestion effect, the execution lottery may be performed even when it is pre-read that the other variable time is selected, and the setting suggestion effect may be performed regardless of the result of the pre-reading. A lottery may be performed.

  Further, in the present embodiment, the execution lottery of the setting suggestion effect is performed when the execution lottery of the continuous announcement effect is not won, but the execution lottery of the continuous announcement effect and the execution lottery of the setting suggestion effect are separately performed. It may be performed.

  In the present embodiment, the history of the continuous announcement effect and the history of the setting suggestion effect may be displayed, for example, by operating the operation key unit 190 in a standby state. In this case, the history in which the continuous notice has been executed may not be distinguished from the history in which the setting suggestion effect has been executed. For example, the history may be displayed as a history in which a chance has appeared. Further, the number of times that the continuous announcement effect is executed or the number of times that the setting suggestion effect is executed may be displayed.

  In the present embodiment, the lottery of the continuous announcement effect and the setting suggestion effect is performed using the tables shown in FIGS. 13A to 13E. For example, the DIP switch of the DIP switch board 198 is operated. By doing so, the appearance rate of the continuous announcement effect and the setting suggestion effect may be changeable.

  Further, in the present embodiment, the execution lottery of the continuous announcement effect is performed even when the execution of the outlier SP reach is pre-read, but the execution lottery of the continuous announcement effect is performed only when the execution of the big hit SP reach is pre-read. You may do so. According to this, since the continuous announcement effect is always performed, the jackpot is always achieved, so that the sense of expectation for the jackpot is further increased. On the other hand, if the chance eyes do not appear continuously, it is a setting suggestion effect. It can be understood that the interest of the game can be further enhanced. In addition, during a period in which the setting suggestion effect can be executed (for example, a period from turning on the power to 50 rotations), a continuous announcement effect is provided in both the case where the execution of the jackpot SP reach is prefetched and the case where the off-SP reach is executed in advance. In the period other than the period in which the execution lottery is performed and the setting suggestion effect can be executed (for example, the period exceeding 50 rotations after the power is turned on), the execution lottery of the continuous announcement effect is performed only when the execution of the jackpot SP reach is pre-read. During the period in which the setting suggestion effect is not executed, the continuous announcement effect is executed, so that the big hit symbol mode may be finally displayed.

  Further, in this embodiment, when the execution of the jackpot SP reach is read in advance and the execution of the continuous announcement effect deviates from the execution lottery, the setting suggestion effect execution lottery is performed. Therefore, in the period from when the power is turned on to when the symbol variation display is executed 50 times, even if the display of a chance is suggested by the setting suggestion, the big hit symbol is finally determined and displayed accidentally. There is. Therefore, even when the setting suggestion effect is executed, a sense of expectation of a big hit may be provided.

  Further, in the present embodiment, the setting suggestion effect is suppressed from being continuously performed, but may be continuously performed. Further, in the present embodiment, when it is determined to execute the continuous announcement effect in the next symbol variation display in which the setting suggestion effect has been executed, the continuous announcement effect is displayed from the next symbol variation display in which the setting suggestion effect has been executed. Although it will be executed, the continuous announcement effect may be suppressed from being executed in the next symbol variation display after the setting suggestion effect has been executed.

  Next, a specific example of the effect performed in the pachinko machine 100 according to the present embodiment will be described.

  FIG. 14 is a diagram showing an example of an effect centered on the decorative symbol display device 208 of the pachinko machine of the present embodiment in a stepwise manner.

  FIG. 14 shows a decorative symbol display device 208, a first special symbol display device 212, a second special symbol display device 214, a normal symbol display device 210, a special symbol 1 holding lamp 218, a special symbol 2 holding lamp 220, and a general symbol. Hold lamp 216 is shown.

  In the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 14A, the combination of decorative symbols of “decoration 4—decoration 1—decoration 7” is stopped and displayed. Note that the background here is not displayed, but a default background image described later is displayed. In the following description, when the background is not displayed, a default background image is displayed unless otherwise specified. Note that various background images different from the default background image (for example, a background image according to the mode) may be displayed.

  The decorative symbol display device 208 has a fourth symbol display area 284 at the upper right corner. The fourth symbol display area 284 is an area for notifying whether the symbol is changing (or the symbol is stopped) or not. From above, the symbol change notification area for the ordinary figure and the symbol change notification area for the special figure 1 are displayed from above. , The symbol change notification area of the special map 2. While the symbol in the ordinary figure is stopped, the square figure is lit and displayed, while the symbol in the ordinary figure fluctuates, the square figure blinks or is turned off. While the symbol of the special figure 1 is stopped, a round figure is lit and displayed, while the symbol of the special figure 1 is changing, the round figure is blinked or turned off. While the symbol of the special figure 2 is stopped, the triangular figure is illuminated and displayed, while the symbol of the special figure 2 fluctuates, the triangular figure blinks or is turned off. As described above, the fourth symbol not only has a different display position, but also has a different display mode (in this case, a shape), so that the player can identify the symbol at a glance. Note that the pre-reading notice may be given by changing the display mode, the lighting mode, and the blinking mode of the fourth symbol.

  Further, the decorative symbol display device 208 is provided with a variable icon display area 280 at the lower center of the effect display area 208d.

  Further, the control state (game state) shown in FIG. 14 is a non-electric support state (non-time saving state). In the decorative symbol display device 208 in the non-electric support state, a reserved icon display area 281 of the special figure 1 is provided on the left side of the variable icon display area 280. In the decorative symbol display device 208 in the non-electric support state, the illustration of the reserved icon display area of the special figure 2 is omitted, but the reserved icon display area of the special figure 2 may be provided.

  In the hold icon display area 281 of the special figure 1, a hold icon representing the hold of the special figure 1 is displayed. The reserved number of Toku-zu 1 is represented by the number of reserved icons of Toku-zu 1 in addition to the lighting number of Toku-zu 1 reserved lamp 218. Represented by In addition, you may make it represent also by the number of suspension icons of special figure 2. That is, the hold icon corresponds to the start information stored in the RAM 308 of the main control unit 300. Hereinafter, the hold icon corresponding to the oldest start information (oldest winning) may be referred to as a first hold icon, the hold icon corresponding to the second oldest start information may be referred to as a second hold icon, and so on. In the hold icon display area 281 of the special figure 1, the hold icons are displayed side by side, and the hold icon on the right side is the hold icon with the older winning.

  In FIG. 14A, two reserved icons h11 and h12 of the special figure 1 are displayed in the reserved icon display area 281 of the special figure 1, and both the reserved icons h11 and h12 of the two special figures 1 are displayed. Are displayed in a default display mode (a round pattern and a white display mode). That is, the default hold icon of Toku-zu 1 is a round hold icon. Note that in FIG. 14A, the hold icons that are not actually displayed are also indicated by dotted lines in order to make it easy to understand that four hold icons are displayed in the hold icon display area 281 of the special figure 1. .

  On the other hand, no pending icon is displayed in the pending icon display area of the special map 2. This is because, as described above, since the control state (game state) shown in FIG. 14 is the non-power support state (non-time saving state), the power chute is hard to open and it is difficult to win the special figure 2 start port 232. Because it is.

  In the pachinko machine 100 of the present embodiment, the reserved icon display area of the special figure which is easier to win in the special figure 1 and the special figure 2 is displayed according to the control state (game state). That is, when the control state is the non-power support state, as shown in FIG. 14A, the hold icon display area 281 of the special figure 1 is displayed in the effect display area 208d, and the control state is the power support state. In some cases, on the contrary, the reserved icon display area 282 of the special figure 2 is displayed.

  Although not shown here, the default display mode of the hold icon of Toku-zu 1 and the default display mode of the hold icon of Toku-zu 2 may be the same or different. .

  In the present embodiment, the symbol change display of the special figure is started in the order of the change start in the special figure display device → the start of blinking or turning off of the fourth symbol → the start or deletion of the moving animation of the hold icon → the start of change of the decorative symbol. However, this order may be changed.

  In FIG. 14 (b), the symbol variation display of the special figure 1 is started, the symbol variation is started in the first special figure display device 212, and the turning off of the fourth symbol is performed. The pattern has not changed yet.

  In FIG. 14C, the moving animation of the hold icons h11 and h12 of the special figure 1 has been started. The movement animation here is such that the hold icon (the target hold icon of the current symbol change) located at the display position of the first hold icon h11 starts moving toward the change icon display area 280 and the second hold icon h11. The hold icon at the display position of the icon h12 starts moving toward the display position of the first hold icon h11 of the special figure 1. At this stage, the variable display of the decorative symbol has not been started.

  In FIG. 14D, the moving animation continues, and in FIG. 14E, the hold icon that was the first hold icon h11 before the start of the change reaches the change icon display area 280 and is displayed as the change icon h0. At the same time, the holding icon, which was the second holding icon h12 before the start of the change, reaches the display position of the first holding icon h11 and is displayed as the first holding icon h11. The variable display of the decorative pattern has not been started. Note that when the symbol change on the first special figure display device 212 is started, the hold icon which was the first hold icon h11 may be viewed as the change icon h0, or the second hold icon until then. The hold icon that was h12 may be viewed as the first hold icon h11.

  Then, the change display of the decorative symbol is started in FIG.

  As shown in FIG. 14 (g), an operation promotion notification image 136P for urging the user to press the effect button 136 within the valid period is displayed on the decorative symbol display device 208 in which the decorative symbol change display has been started.

  In the present embodiment, the production of the “BGM lottery chance” is executed in the manner described above, and the execution time of the production is 120 seconds, which may be executed according to the winning in the general winning opening 226b. It can be said that the effect is longer than the execution time of the flash effect EF1, that is, in this effect example, the effect is executed for 120 seconds as the big hit end effect. The production time of the “BGM lottery chance” and the execution time of the big hit end production can be appropriately set.

  When the big hit end effect ends and the time shifts to the time saving state (normal figure high probability state), the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 24 (a) following FIG. 23 (i) displays the left decoration at the upper left corner of the display screen. The symbol 208a, the middle decorative symbol 208b, and the right decorative symbol 208c are displayed in a small size, and the special figure 1 reserved number display and the special figure 2 reserved number display are displayed vertically on the right side of the decorative pattern. Right-handed display is continuously performed on the left side of the fourth symbol display area 284 at the upper right corner of the display screen. In the center of the display screen, the characters "Aim for the next standby electric chute!" Are displayed, and by right-handing, a game ball is awarded in the second special figure starting port 232 to change the pattern according to the special figure 2. Promoting labeling.

  In the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 24A, the combination of decorative symbols of “decoration 3-decoration 4-decoration 1” is stopped and displayed. Further, in the state shown in FIG. 24A, the special figure 1 and the special figure 2 are in a state of being stopped and displayed, and this is indicated in the fourth symbol display area 284 in the upper right corner of the decorative symbol display device 208. In this way, the symbols of the special figures 1 and 2 are also illuminated. On the other hand, the ordinary symbol is being displayed in a fluctuating manner, and in the fourth symbol display area 284, the symbol of the ordinary symbol is blinking and displayed so as to indicate that fact. Further, in the general-purpose holding lamp 216, three holding lamps are lit, which indicates that the number of general-purpose holdings is three.

  The control state (game state) shown in FIG. 24 is the power support state (time saving state), and the variable icon display area 280 and the hold icon display area 281 are not displayed, but may be displayed. Also, after the big hit game related to the big hit in Toku-zu 1 is completed, the power support state is maintained until the symbol change display of 99 times ends, and the small-hit probability of Toku-zu 2 is about 1/5. The jackpot is almost guaranteed. For this reason, the decorative symbol display device 208 displays the character "Aim at the next waiting electric chute!" Indicating that the next big hit is waiting, giving the player a sense of expectation.

  Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 24 (b), the normal symbol display device 210 stops and displays the "common symbol A" indicating a hit, the blade member 232a of the second special symbol start port 232 is opened, and the second special symbol is opened. A state is shown in which three game balls are awarded in the starting port 232, and thereafter, the symbol change display of the special figure 2 based on the first winning in the second special figure starting port 232 is performed. More specifically, three game balls have been won in the second special figure starting port 232, but one of them has been exhausted and the symbol variation display has been started. Are turned on, and the decorative symbol display device 208 displays the decorative symbol in a variable manner in accordance with the symbol variable display of the special symbol 2, and also displays the special symbol 2 displayed on the right side of the decorative symbol in the variable display. Is also displayed as "2".

  Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 24 (c), the decorative symbol display device 208 stops and displays the decorative symbol combination of “decoration 7-decoration 7-decoration 7” and notifies that the chance of a 16R jackpot has arrived. Is done. Further, the second special map display device 214 is stopped and displayed with “special map A” indicating a small hit that may become a 16R big hit. At the timing shown in FIG. 24 (c), four reservation lamps of the special figure 2 reservation lamp 220 are lit, indicating that the number of reservations in the special figure 2 is four.

  Then, in the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 24 (d), an image imitating the gaming board 200 is displayed, a V region RV is indicated by an arrow, and a character display of “Right-hand and aim for V!” Is displayed. , An effect to promote the passage of the game ball to the V region RV is started. Thereafter, the opening / closing mechanisms SH1 and SH2 are respectively opened, and the game ball can pass through the V region RV. The opening / closing mechanism SH1 is opened until a predetermined time (for example, 10 seconds) elapses or a predetermined number (for example, 10) of game balls enter, and the opening / closing mechanism SH2 is opened for a predetermined time (for example, 5 seconds). ) Is released, but the opening time and the number of entering balls can be set as appropriate.

  Thereafter, when the game ball passes through the V region RV at the timing shown in FIG. 24 (e), a big hit occurs, and as shown in FIG. 24 (f), the decorative symbol display device 208 performs a big hit start effect. When the big hit start effect starts, a character MCK of Dr. Machiko (Wedding Machiko) in a wedding dress celebrates the big hit with four copandas. Also, in this example of production, the character "super big hit!" Is displayed as a notification of the start of the big hit, and a small hit (that is, a small hit that becomes a trigger of a 16R big hit or an 8R big hit) is stored in the special figure 2 on hold. Is included. In other words, a pre-reading notice (suspended notice) of the reserved consecutive chan is performed.

  FIG. 24 (g) shows a state in which the big hit game has started and the game has shifted to the second round. In the present embodiment, when a small hit occurs and the opening / closing mechanisms SH1 and SH2 open, and a game ball passes through the V region RV and a big hit occurs, the game in which the opening / closing mechanism SH1 opens and closes becomes the first round, and the big hit The transition round is the second round. As shown in FIG. 24 (g), when the process proceeds to the second round, the decorative symbol display device 208 displays the number of acquired prize balls in the upper left corner of the display screen, and the first jackpot (in the present example, the previous jackpot is used). )), “1350 pt” indicating the number of award balls acquired is displayed. Also, “2R”, which is the current number of rounds, is displayed at the upper center of the display screen of the decorative symbol display device 208.

  In addition, in the lower right part of the decorative symbol display device 208, a character display of "10 voucher tickets and 1 lucky ticket GET!" Is displayed, and the number of voucher tickets acquired is displayed below the characters. At the timing shown in FIG. 24 (g), since the winning in the general winning opening 226b has not yet been started since the big hit game started, the display of the acquired number shown below the voucher icon is "0/10". I have.

  Thereafter, when the game proceeds and the game ball wins in the general winning opening 226b in a state where nine vouchers have been obtained, the display of the number of vouchers obtained is "10/10" as shown in FIG. Is displayed, and one lottery ticket FBK is displayed, indicating that one lottery ticket FBK has been acquired. At the timing shown in FIG. 24 (h), the display of the acquired winning prize ball number is “1440 pt” because six gaming balls have won the variable winning opening 246. In this effect example, a red flash effect EF1 is displayed in accordance with the winning of the game ball in the general winning opening 226b. That is, the suspension notice is given by the display of the red flash effect EF1. In this embodiment, the suspension notice by displaying the red flash effect EF1 may be executed even when the small hit is not included in the suspension of the special figure 2, and the suspension notice of the special figure 2 may be executed. In the case where the small hit is included in the reservation of the special figure 2, the reservation notice is more likely to occur than when the small hit is not included. Therefore, the more the suspension notice by the display of the red flash effect EF1 occurs, the higher the degree of expectation of the suspension consecutive chan.

  Thereafter, when the game ball wins in the general winning opening 226b in a state where the game of the eighth round is being performed, as shown in FIG. 24 (i), a red flash effect EF1 is displayed according to the game ball winning. A pending notice has been made. At the timing shown in FIG. 24 (i), five lottery tickets FBK are displayed, and four of the five lottery tickets FBK are ranked higher. In addition, eight vouchers have been obtained, and the display of the number of vouchers obtained is “8/10”. Further, at the timing shown in FIG. 24 (i), since 64 gaming balls have been won in the variable winning opening 246 after the start of the big hit game, the display of the acquired number of awarded balls is "2310 pt".

  After that, the big hit round is exhausted in the above-described manner, and when the 16th round ends and the big hit game ends, a big hit end effect is started as shown in FIG. 24 (j). Thereafter, an effect of "BGM lottery chance" as a big hit end effect is performed in the manner shown in FIGS. 23 (a) to 23 (h).

  When the production of “BGM Fukuhiki Chance” ends, in this production example, as shown in FIG. 24 (k), as the last production of the big hit end production, the copanda character moves to the center and “One time saving time Aim for the Chu "is displayed, informing you that you will shift to the time-saving state. This is because, after the small hit occurs in the special map 2, the game ball passes through the V region RV and the big hit related to the big hit generated by passing the game ball ends, and the game shifts to the time saving state, but when one symbol variation display ends. Since the time saving state ends, this point is different from the time saving state in which the game shifts after the big hit game which has become the big hit in the special figure 1. Therefore, after the big hit game related to the big hit that occurs when the game ball passes through the V region RV after the small hit occurs in the special figure 2, the second special figure starting port 232 only during the first symbol change display. Of the blade member 232a is easy to open, and it is easy to fill the remaining one empty space, so that the symbol change display according to the special figure 2 can be substantially executed only five times, that is, You can get the benefit of small hits about 5 times only 5 times.

  In FIG. 25 (a) following FIG. 24 (k) after the big hit is completed, the symbol variation display of the special figure 2 starts, and the variation display of the decoration symbol displayed in the upper left corner of the decoration symbol display device 208 is performed. Has also started. Further, in the state shown in FIG. 25A, the special figure 1 is in a state of being stopped and displayed, and in the fourth symbol display area 284 at the upper right corner of the decorative symbol display device 208, as shown in FIG. The symbol in FIG. 1 is also lit. On the other hand, the special figure 2 and the ordinary figure are being displayed in a fluctuating manner, and in the fourth symbol display area 284, the symbols of the special figure 2 and the ordinary figure are blinkingly displayed to indicate that. Also, in the special figure 2 holding lamp 220, one special figure 2 is digested and three holding lamps are lit, indicating that the number of holdings of the special figure 2 is three. The three holding lamps are lit, indicating that the number of ordinary drawing holdings is three.

  In addition, after the big hit game related to the big hit caused by the small hit in the special figure 2 is in the power support state until one symbol change display is completed, the small hit probability of the special figure 2 is about 1/5. Therefore, the next big hit (i.e., the pending consecutive chan) is not guaranteed. For this reason, the decorative symbol display device 208 displays the characters “Aim at the time saving once a chance to aim for the power Chu!” In order to encourage the next big hit acquisition, and the player can have the expectation for the holding consecutive Chang. There is.

  After that, the variation display of the general figure ends, and as shown in FIG. 25 (b), when the normal symbol display device 210 stops and displays at the “general figure A” indicating the contact, the blade member of the second special figure starting port 232 is displayed. 232a is open, and after displaying the character of “During electric power opening, aim at electric power!”, The blade member 232a of the second special figure starting port 232 is opened, and the second special figure starting port 232 is opened. Gaming balls are easier to win. At the timing shown in FIG. 25 (b), after the blade member 232a of the second special figure starting port 232 is opened, one game ball wins in the second special figure starting port 233, and the special figure 2 is reserved. Is shown full.

  Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 25 (c), when the first symbol change display according to the special figure 2 is completed, the character “Electric tu charge completed!” Indicating that the electric support state has ended is displayed, and the electric support The state shifts from the normal game state to the normal game state (low-probability state of ordinary figure). At this time, the right-hand display displayed in the upper right corner of the display screen is also deleted.

  After that, for example, if the reservation of Toku-zu 2 includes a small hit (in this example of performance, the second reservation of Toku-zu 2 is a small hit that may be a 16R big hit), FIG. As illustrated in (d), the decorative symbol display device 208 stops and displays the combination of the decorative symbols “decoration 7-decoration 7-decoration 7” and notifies that the 16R big hit has been achieved. Further, the second special map display device 214 is stopped and displayed with “special map A” indicating a small hit that may become a 16R big hit. At this time, the right-handed display is displayed again in the upper right corner of the display screen. In addition, at the timing shown in FIG. 25D, two holding lamps of the special figure 2 holding lamp 220 are lit, indicating that the number of holdings of the special figure 2 is two. Thereafter, for example, the game proceeds in the manner shown in FIG.

  As described above, in the present embodiment, the reservation notice executed when the general winning opening 226b is won and the lottery in the production of the “BGM lottery chance” are executed during the big hit game, but only during the big hit game. Instead, it may be executed during the execution of the symbol variation display. For example, by winning a prize in the general winning opening 226b during the execution of the symbol variation display, a jackpot notice or a look-ahead notice regarding the symbol variation display being executed is executed. At the same time, an effect of suggesting a setting may be executed at a later timing. More specifically, a later timing during the execution of the symbol variation display, a stop display of the symbol variation display, The effect of suggesting the setting may be executed at the timing of the symbol change display or during the subsequent big hit game. In addition, other than during the symbol variation display, for example, it may be executed in a standby state in which the symbol variation display is not performed.

  Further, in the present embodiment, during the big hit game, a prefetch notice (notification effect) triggered by a winning of a game ball to the general winning opening 226b and a lottery (setting suggestion effect) in the “BGM lottery chance” effect are performed. However, the announcement effect and the setting suggestion effect may be easily performed when other conditions are satisfied. For example, the predetermined rotation speed (for example, 500 rotation If the symbol variation display of ()) is executed, the announcement effect and the setting suggestion effect may be easily executed. These effects may be executed when a plurality of conditions are satisfied. For example, these effects may be performed by winning both the general winning opening 226b and another winning opening (for example, the general winning opening 226a). May be performed. In the present embodiment, these effects are executed in response to the winning of a game ball to the general winning opening 226b. For example, these effects are executed in response to an operation of a player. For example, these effects may be executed when the effect button 136 is operated during the execution of the effect prompting the operation of the effect button 136.

  FIG. 26 is a diagram showing step by step another example of the effect centering on the decorative symbol display device 208 of the pachinko machine 100 of the present embodiment. 26, the decorative symbol display device 208, the first special symbol display device 212, the second special symbol display device 214, the ordinary symbol display device 210, the special symbol 1 holding lamp 218, the special symbol 2 holding lamp 220, and the The illustration of the holding lamp 216 is omitted.

  FIG. 26 shows another example of the effect of the effect in the jackpot game shown in FIGS. 22 to 23. For example, when a player makes an irregular hit or the like, one ball is put into the general winning opening 226b during the jackpot game. This shows an example of an effect when no prize was won.

  In the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 26 (a), a state in which a big hit start effect is performed after eight rounds of big hits in the symbol variation display of the special figure 1 is shown. When the big hit start effect starts, a character MCK of Dr. Machiko (Wedding Machiko) in a wedding dress celebrates the big hit with four copandas. Further, when the big hit start effect starts, a right-handed display is displayed in the upper right corner of the display screen to promote the player to right-handed.

  FIG. 26 (b) shows a state where the big hit game has been started and shifted to the first round. In the first round, the decorative symbol display device 208 displays the number of winning prize balls from the first big hit below the big hit symbol displayed in the upper left corner of the display screen. At the timing shown in FIG. 26B, “0015pt” indicating that 15 prize balls have been acquired is displayed because one game ball has won the variable winning opening 234. Also, “1R”, which is the current number of rounds, is displayed at the upper center of the display screen of the decorative symbol display device 208.

  Also, in this effect example, during the big hit game, for example, no game ball has been won in the general winning opening 226b due to an irregular hit or the like or the ball is clogged. Indicates "0/10", indicating that no voucher has been obtained. After that, as shown in FIGS. 26 (b) to (g), the big hit game is consumed up to the eighth round without any game ball winning in the general winning opening 226b.

  After that, when the eighth round, which is the final round, is completed, five white lottery tickets FBK are displayed on the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 26H, that is, five lotteries can be made. Be informed. In this production example, a maximum of 5 lotteries are executed in the production of the “BGM lottery chance”. The shortage will be replenished so that you can. Note that the big hit end effect shown in FIG. 26 (i), which will be described later, may be started without refilling the lottery ticket FBK at the timing shown in FIG. 26 (h).

  After that, when the eighth round ends and the big hit game ends, a big hit end effect starts as shown in FIG. 26 (i). In the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 26 (i), a character of a copanda appears, and the character “After this, it is a BGM lottery chance!” Is displayed, and an effect of “BGM lottery chance” is given as a big hit end effect. Announcing what will be done.

  FIG. 26 (j) shows a state in which the production of “BGM lottery chance” has started. When the production of the “BGM lottery chance” starts, a copanda character is displayed on the left side of the display screen of the decorative symbol display device 208 as shown in FIG. GRGR is displayed. In addition, the character "5 more times" is displayed above the rotary lottery device GRGR, and it is notified that lottery can be performed by the number of the obtained lottery tickets FBK. In this case, the voucher FBK is not obtained by the voucher, but at the end of the final round, five blessed vouchers FBK are replenished, so that five blessings can be performed.

  Thereafter, when the rotary lottery device GRGR rotates in the counterclockwise direction, as shown in FIG. 26 (k), the lottery ball PON appears from the rotary lottery device GRGR, and a mode of dropping to the tray is displayed. In the effect example shown in FIG. 26 (k), a white lottery ball PON appears from the rotary lottery device GRGR, and the character "Sorry! Lost" is displayed above the rotary lottery device GRGR, and the lottery is lost. Is notified. Then, a card (losing card) in which "losing" is displayed instead of the song name is displayed at the upper center of the decorative symbol display device 208. When the losing card is displayed, there is no benefit, and therefore, a list of tunes that can be played is not made. In this effect example, when the lottery ticket FBK is in a white display mode, the deviation is more likely to occur than in a red display mode. Thereafter, for example, an effect of “BGM lottery chance” is performed in the manner shown in FIGS. 23 (c) to 23 (g).

  Thereafter, the decorative symbol display device 208 shown in FIG. 26 (l) shows a state where the fifth lottery is being performed. That is, in the decorative symbol display device 208, a display in which the lottery ball PON appears from the rotary lottery device GRGR and falls on the tray is performed. In the effect example shown in FIG. 26 (l), a blue lottery ball PON appears from the rotary lottery device GRGR, and above the rotary lottery device GRGR, the characters "Oshi! You will be notified that you won. Then, a music card of the third prize is displayed at the lowest position of the music cards arranged in a column. In the effect example shown in FIG. 26 (l), it is informed that a song card describing a song "Song EFG" is obtained by winning the third prize. Since this “song EFG” is a song that has appeared before, the character “NEW !!” is not added.

  When the lottery is completed as described above, as shown in FIG. 26 (m), as the last effect of the big hit end effect, the character of the copanda moves to the center, and "Aim at the next standby electric chute." Is displayed to inform that the machine will shift to the time saving state. Thereafter, when the big hit end effect ends, the state shifts to a time saving state.

  In this way, in this production example, even if a lottery ticket could not be obtained, the shortage will be replenished, so we will not miss the opportunity to fully enjoy the lottery production, thereby suppressing the discouragement of the player May be possible.

  In addition, the execution time of the jackpot end effect is executed only for a predetermined time. Therefore, according to this effect example, even if a lottery ticket cannot be obtained, it is effective to execute the lottery by supplementing the shortage. May be able to perform a directing

  Further, in the present embodiment, the “BGM lottery chance” effect is performed after the end of the jackpot game relating to all the jackpots, but may be executed only in a part of the jackpots.

  Further, in this production example, a lottery for increasing the number of selectable songs or a production suggestion for setting is performed by acquiring a lottery ticket FBK. For example, a big hit notice (pre-reading notice) is given by lottery. May go. In addition, at least one of the functions of the jackpot notice, the setting suggestion, and the increase of selectable songs may be included by the deduction.

  In addition, by winning the general winning opening 226b in the jackpot game, a lottery ticket FBK is obtained, and the result of the lottery ticket executed by the obtained lottery ticket FBK and the maximum number of lottery tickets FBK are not obtained during the big hit game, Alternatively, in the case where the lottery ticket FBK is replenished without obtaining one lottery ticket FBK, the result of the lottery ticket executed by the replenishment lottery ticket FBK may be different. A new song is more likely to be given when a lottery with the given lottery ticket FBK is performed than when a lottery with the refilled lottery ticket FBK is made. As a result, an opportunity to give a setting suggestion is obtained. You may make it easy to be performed.

As described above, in the present embodiment, the effect of adding a song in the big hit game is performed and the setting suggestion can be performed, so that the big hit game can be further energized and the game can have a sense of expectation. is there. At the timing shown in FIG. 27 (m), the first round is being executed, and five game balls have entered the variable winning opening 234, so that the display of the number of acquired prize balls is 75 prize balls. "0075 pt" indicating that ".

  Subsequently, as shown in FIG. 27 (n), the character “Two more times” is displayed above the rotary lottery device GRGR, and it is notified that the remaining two lotteries will be performed. In the rotary lottery device GRGR, the lottery is rotated counterclockwise, and the second lottery is performed. At the timing shown in FIG. 27 (n), the second round is being executed, and since 12 game balls have been won in the variable winning opening 234, 180 prize balls are displayed as the display of the number of acquired prize balls. “0180 pt” indicating that the “.” Has been acquired is displayed.

  Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 27 (o), a display is made in which the lottery ball PON appears from the rotary lottery device GRGR and falls on the tray. In the effect example shown in FIG. 27 (o), a green lottery ball PON appears from the rotary lottery device GRGR, and characters of “Yay! 2nd prize” are displayed above the rotary lottery device GRGR, and the second and the like are displayed. You will be notified that you have won the prize. Then, a music card of the second prize is displayed at the upper center of the decorative symbol display device 208. In the effect example shown in FIG. 27 (o), it is reported that a song card describing a song "Song ABC" has been acquired by winning the second prize. Since this “Song ABC” is a song that has appeared before, the character “NEW !!” is not added. At the timing shown in FIG. 27, the second round is being executed, and 270 prize balls were acquired as the display of the number of acquired prize balls because 18 game balls were won in the variable winning opening 234.

In the end effect of the jackpot in this effect example, a copanda character appears at the center, and the character "Aim for the next standby electric chute" is displayed to inform the user that the time will be reduced.

  In the present embodiment, the present invention is applied to a so-called one-type and two-type mixing machine. However, it is needless to say that the present invention can be applied to a gaming machine that shifts to a positive-change state after a big-hit game related to the big-hit when a large-hit pattern is hit. . In this case, the big hit probability in the special figure low probability state and the special figure high probability state may be different for each setting.

  Further, in the present embodiment, as the setting suggestion, the possibility of the high setting is suggested, but the setting may be changed and the possibility of the high setting may be suggested, or the setting may be suggested. It may be changed and may indicate that the setting has been changed to the high setting from the day before.

  Further, in the present embodiment, when a specific fluctuation pattern (fluctuation time) is selected, setting suggestion is performed based on a chance, but setting is made so that the probability of setting suggestion differs depending on the type of the fluctuation pattern. May be. Further, for example, the appearance rate of the setting suggestion may be changed according to the accessory ratio. For example, the setting suggestion may be more easily performed as the accessory ratio is lower. The higher the setting, the easier the setting suggestion can be made.

  In addition, for example, the execution probability of the setting suggestion may be changed in relation to the frequency of occurrence of an error. The setting suggestion execution probability may be changed when an error or an abnormality occurs in which a large number of game balls are clogged on the game area 124 of the game board 200.

  Further, the execution probability of the setting suggestion may be changed due to an irregular game being played. For example, even if a small hit occurs and the opening / closing mechanisms SH1 and SH2 are opened, the V-region RV may be changed. When the game ball does not pass or after the variable winning opening 234 is opened, a predetermined number (for example, 10) of the game balls that are the closing condition does not win, and the opening time that is another closing condition (for example, , 30 seconds), the execution probability of setting suggestion may be reduced (or increased).

  Further, in the present embodiment, the chance eyes are displayed at the time of the symbol stop display as the setting suggestion, but the setting suggestion may be performed at another timing, for example, at the end of the big hit, at the end of the consecutive chan, It may be executed at the start of the symbol variation display or in the history display.

  The setting suggestion effect shown in the present embodiment is intended to give the player an expectation of the high setting. For example, it is suggested that the high setting is determined (or the highest setting is determined). An effect may be performed, or an effect may be performed that suggests that a certain setting or more is determined (for example, in a six-step setting, the setting is four or more). In the present embodiment, an effect indicating that the setting is high or that the setting has been changed is performed, but it does not directly indicate that setting is low.

  Further, in the present embodiment, the setting suggestion effect by the combination of the chance eyes by the decorative symbol in the symbol variation display and the setting suggestion effect by the result of the lottery in the “BGM lottery chance” effect during the big hit game are performed. The setting suggestion may be performed by an effect. For example, the display mode of the hold icon may be displayed in a flashing white display mode (a look-ahead notice or a gaseous display mode), and the hold icon is displayed in a flashing white display mode. The setting may be suggested more frequently. In this case, the display mode of blinking white as the display mode of the gasket may be referred to as the display mode of setting suggestion.

At a certain timing, there is a case where one of the first effect and the second effect is started [for example, as shown in FIG. 17 (c) and FIG. 18 (c), At the timing when the decorative pattern stops, a continuous notice or setting suggestion based on the chance eyes is performed],
A gaming table characterized by the following. 』
Was explained.

  According to the conventional game console, there is room for improvement in the effect means, but according to this game table, it is possible to provide a game machine having the characteristic of the effect means.

  Further, according to this gaming table, there is a case where it is possible to make the player guess whether the first effect is executed or the second effect is executed and entertain the player.

  Here, the effect means may be capable of executing only a plurality of effects, or may be capable of executing other than the plurality of effects. Further, the effect means may be one that always executes a plurality of effects, or may be one that does not always execute the plurality of effects.

  In addition, when a setting change operation is received, only one of a plurality of settings may be selected. When a setting change operation is received, a setting other than any one of the plurality of settings may be selected. May also be selected. In addition, when a setting change operation is received, any one of the settings may be selected from among a plurality of settings. It may not be selected.

  Further, only when a setting change operation is received, any one of the plurality of settings may be selected. Alternatively, when the setting change operation is not received, any one of the plurality of settings may be selected. One setting may be selected.

  In addition, the first effect may be related to only the jackpot notice or may be related to something other than the jackpot notice. In addition, the first effect may always be related to the jackpot notice or may not be related to the jackpot notice.

  In addition, the second effect may include only an effect that suggests information about the setting, or may include an effect other than an effect that suggests information about the setting. In addition, the second effect may include an effect that necessarily suggests information about the setting, or may not include an effect that suggests information about the setting.

  In addition, at least a part of the first effect and the second effect may be in the same mode, or at least a part other than the part may be in the same mode. Also, at least a part of the first effect and the second effect may always be in the same mode, or at least a part of the first effect may not be the same mode.

  In addition, the first effect and the second effect may be partially in the same mode or may be entirely in the same mode.

  At a certain timing, only one of the first effect and the second effect may be started, or at a certain time, the first effect and the second effect may be started. An effect other than one of the effects may also be started. Also, at a certain timing, one of the first effect and the second effect may always be started, or at a certain time, the first effect and the second effect Either one of the effects may not be started.

  At a certain timing, the production of only one of the first production and the second production may be started, or at a certain timing, the production of the first production and the second production may be started. Both of the effects may be started.

In addition, the probability that the second effect is executed in accordance with the selected setting is different [for example, as shown in FIGS. Is different depending on the setting],
A gaming table characterized by the following. 』
Was also explained.

  According to this gaming table, there is a case where the setting can be estimated based on the frequency of occurrence of the second effect and the user can enjoy the game.

  Here, the second effect may be different only in the probability of executing according to the selected setting, or may be different in other than the probability of executing according to the selected setting. Good. In addition, the second effect may have a different execution probability depending on the selected setting, or may have a different execution probability depending on the selected setting. Good.

  Further, the second effect may have a different probability of being executed only in accordance with the selected setting, or may have a different probability of executing in response to something other than the selected setting. .

Also, “one of the plurality of settings is a first setting [for example, setting 1 and the like],
One of the plurality of settings is a second setting [for example, setting 3 or the like],
The case where the second setting is selected is easier to execute the second effect than the case where the first setting is selected [for example, in FIG. 13 (c) and FIG. As shown, in setting 1, setting suggestion is performed with a probability of 20% when SP reach is prefetched, and in setting 3, setting suggestion is performed with 50% probability when SP reach is prefetched, etc.],
A gaming table characterized by the following. 』
Was also explained.

  According to this gaming table, for example, even if the big hit notice does not become a big hit, it may be possible to expect that the setting is high.

  Further, according to this gaming table, for example, in the case of a low setting, it is easy to appear as a jackpot notice visually, so that the expectation for the jackpot may be given in some cases.

  In addition, when the second setting is selected than when the first setting is selected, only the second effect may be easily executed, or when the first setting is selected. Also, when the second setting is selected, effects other than the second effect may be more easily executed. In addition, the case where the second setting is selected may be easier to execute the second effect than the case where the first setting is selected, and may be easier than the case where the first setting is selected. Also, the second effect may be more difficult to be executed when the second setting is selected.

  In addition, only when the second setting is selected than when the first setting is selected, the second effect may be more easily executed, and the second effect may be performed more easily than when the first setting is selected. Even in cases other than the case where the second setting is selected, the second effect may be easily executed.

Also, the second effect may be executed in a first period [for example, a period from when the power is turned on to a time when the symbol change display is performed 50 times, etc.]
A gaming table characterized by the following. 』
Was also explained.

  According to this gaming table, there is a case where it is possible to give a sense of expectation that the second effect is executed in the first period.

  Here, only the second effect may be executed in the first period, or an effect other than the second effect may be executed in the first period. In addition, the second effect may be necessarily executed in the first period, or the second effect may not be executed in the first period.

  Further, the second effect may be executed only in the first period, or the second effect may be executed in a period other than the first period.

In addition, “the first period is a period from when the power is turned on to when a certain number of times (for example, 50 times, etc.) of the symbol variation display is executed.

  According to this gaming table, in some cases, it is possible to give a sense of expectation that the second effect will be executed in a certain number of symbol change displays after the power is turned on.

In addition, it is possible to execute a certain mission [for example, a button hit effect shown in FIG. 21 (c) to FIG. 21 (g) or FIG.
The first period refers to a period from when a mission related to the certain mission is completed to when a period during which the certain mission is executed elapses (for example, a valid operation period of the effect button 136). Is,
A gaming table characterized by the following. 』
Was also explained.

  According to this gaming table, there is a case where it is possible to improve a desire to accomplish a mission early.

  Here, only a certain mission may be executable, or other missions may be executable. Further, a certain mission may be always executed, or a certain mission may not be executed.

Further, ““ the information on the setting ”is“ information including at least information that the setting has been changed ”,
The case where the setting is changed is easier to execute the second effect than the case where the setting is not changed,
A gaming table characterized by the following. 』
Was also explained.

  According to this gaming table, it may be possible to expect a setting change even when a big hit has not been achieved.

  Here, only the second effect may be easier to execute when the setting is changed than when the setting is not changed, and the setting may be changed more than when the setting is not changed. In this case, effects other than the second effect may be more easily executed. In addition, the second effect may be easier to be executed when the setting is changed than when the setting is not changed, and the setting is changed than when the setting is not changed. In some cases, the second effect may be more difficult to execute.

  Further, if the setting has not been changed, the second effect may not be executed, or if the setting has been changed, the second effect may be necessarily executed.

In addition, "if a setting change operation is received, one of the settings is selected from a plurality of settings" means that, when the setting change operation is received, at least a plurality of settings having different jackpot probabilities are selected. Any one setting is selected. "
It is possible to execute a symbol variation display at any one variation time from a plurality of variation times according to the result of the pass / fail determination,
It is possible to pre-read the fluctuation time of the symbol fluctuation display [for example, to pre-read the fluctuation time of the symbol fluctuation display in the special figure pre-reading process executed in step S224 in the main control unit timer interruption process],
As a result of the pre-reading, the symbol fluctuation display is executed at a certain fluctuation time [for example, a fluctuation time corresponding to a fluctuation pattern for executing the jackpot SP reach or the off-SP reach] of the plurality of fluctuation times. , The first effect may be executed [for example, when the continuous notice is executed when the fluctuation time corresponding to the fluctuation pattern for executing the jackpot SP reach or the off-SP reach is read in advance. Etc.],
When the result of the hit determination is a big hit, the probability that the symbol variation display is executed at the certain variation time is the same probability in any of the plurality of settings [see, for example, FIG. As shown in (a), when the fluctuation time corresponding to the fluctuation pattern for executing the jackpot SP reach is read ahead, the continuous notice is executed with a probability of 50% regardless of the setting, etc.],
A gaming table characterized by the following. 』
Was also explained.

  According to this gaming table, the first effect is executed with a substantially constant probability, so that the expectation of the big hit may be constant.

  Here, only the variation time of the symbol variation display may be pre-read, or the information other than the variation time of the symbol variation display may be pre-read. Further, the variation time of the symbol variation display may be read in advance, or the variation time of the symbol variation display may not be read in advance.

  In addition, as a result of performing the pre-reading, when the symbol variation display is to be executed at a certain variation time among the plurality of variation times, only the first effect may be performed, As a result of the pre-reading, when the symbol variation display is to be executed at a certain variation time among the plurality of variation times, an effect other than the first effect may also be performed. In addition, if the symbol variation display is to be executed at a certain variation time among a plurality of variation times as a result of performing the look-ahead, the first effect may be necessarily performed or the look-ahead may be performed. As a result, when the symbol variation display is to be performed at a certain variation time among the plurality of variation times, the first effect may not be performed in some cases.

  Also, as a result of the pre-reading, the first effect may be executed only when the symbol variation display is to be executed at a certain variation time among the plurality of variation times, As a result of performing the pre-reading, the first effect may be executed in cases other than the case where the symbol fluctuation display is executed at a certain fluctuation time among the plural fluctuation times.

  In addition, when the result of the hit determination is a big hit, only the probability that the symbol variation display is executed at a certain variation time may be the same probability regardless of any of a plurality of settings, When the result of the hit determination is a big hit, the probability other than the probability that the symbol variation display is executed at a certain variation time may be the same probability regardless of any of the plurality of settings. Further, when the result of the hit determination is a big hit, the probability that the symbol variation display is executed at a certain variation time may be the same probability regardless of any of a plurality of settings, When the result of the hit determination is a big hit, the probability that the symbol variation display is executed at a certain variation time may not be the same even if any of a plurality of settings.

  Further, the probability that the symbol variation display is executed in a certain variation time only when the result of the hit / fail determination is a big hit may be the same probability regardless of any of a plurality of settings, Even when the result of the hit determination is not a big hit, the probability that the symbol variation display is executed at a certain variation time may be the same for any of a plurality of settings.

In addition, “the first effect is a continuous notice effect [for example, a continuous notice based on a chance shown in FIG. 17C and FIG.
The continuous announcement effect is an effect in which the first effect is executed in each of a plurality of successive symbol change displays,
When the effect performed at the certain timing is the second effect, the execution of the second effect is limited in the symbol variation display to be started next [for example, the notice effect illustrated in FIG. By the processing of step S515 in the determination processing, it is restricted that the suggestion effect is continuously executed, etc.],
A gaming table characterized by the following. 』
Was also explained.

  According to this gaming table, it may be possible to infer which of the effects is based on whether or not the effects are continuous.

  Here, the first effect may be only a continuous announcement effect, or may include an effect other than the continuous announcement effect. Further, the first effect may be a continuous announcement effect, or may not be a continuous announcement effect.

  In addition, the continuous announcement effect may be such that only the first effect is executed in each of a plurality of successive symbol change displays, or the first effect in each of a plurality of successive symbol change displays. Other effects may also be executed. In addition, the continuous announcement effect may be such that the first effect is always executed in each of a plurality of successive symbol change displays, or the first effect in each of a plurality of successive symbol change displays. May not be executed.

  In addition, the continuous announcement effect may be such that the first effect is executed only in each of a plurality of successive symbol change displays, or the first effect may be performed other than each of a plurality of successive symbol change displays. Effect may be executed.

  Further, when the effect performed at a certain timing is the second effect, only the execution of the second effect may be restricted in the symbol variation display to be started next, or the execution at a certain timing If the performed effect is the second effect, execution of other than the second effect in the symbol variation display to be started next may be restricted. Further, when the effect performed at a certain timing is the second effect, the execution of the second effect may be necessarily restricted in the symbol variation display to be started next, or may be performed at a certain timing. When the performed effect is the second effect, the execution of the second effect may not be restricted in the symbol variation display to be started next.

  Further, when the effect performed at a certain timing is the second effect, the execution of the second effect may be restricted only in the symbol variation display to be started next, or may be performed at a certain timing. When the performed effect is the second effect, the execution of the second effect may be restricted other than the symbol variation display to be started next.

  Further, only when the effect performed at a certain timing is the second effect, the execution of the second effect may be limited in the symbol variation display to be started next, or may be performed at a certain timing. Even when the effect is not the second effect, the execution of the second effect may be restricted in the symbol variation display to be started next.

Also, as a result of performing the lottery as to whether or not to execute the first effect at the certain timing, if the lottery is not won, the second effect is executed at the certain timing [For example, by the process of step S507 in the announcement effect determination process shown in FIG. 12, when the lottery for executing the continuous announcement is not won, the lottery for performing the suggestion effect is performed. Etc.],
A gaming table characterized by the following. 』

  According to this gaming table, the second effect may be executed even if the lottery of the first effect is omitted, so that the effect can be enjoyed by increasing the chances of the effect being executed. There is.

  Here, as a result of performing a lottery as to whether or not to execute the first effect at a certain timing, if the lottery is not won, it is determined whether or not to execute the second effect at a certain timing. Only a lottery may be performed, or as a result of performing a lottery at a certain timing as to whether or not to execute the first performance, if the lottery is not won, the second performance at a certain timing Lottery other than the lottery of whether or not to execute may be performed. Also, as a result of performing a lottery at a certain timing as to whether or not to execute the first effect, if the lottery is not won, a lottery as to whether or not to execute the second effect at a certain timing. May be necessarily performed, or as a result of performing a lottery as to whether or not to execute the first effect at a certain timing, if the lottery is not won, the second effect is performed at a certain timing There may be cases where the lottery for whether or not to execute is not performed.

  In addition, as a result of performing a lottery as to whether or not to execute the first effect at a certain timing, it is determined whether or not to perform the second effect at a certain timing only when the lottery is not won. A lottery may be performed, or as a result of a lottery performed as to whether or not to execute the first effect at a certain timing, a case other than a case where the lottery is not won is also performed at a certain timing. A lottery may be performed to determine whether to perform the second effect.

Also, if the first effect is executed in a second period [for example, a period after the symbol variation display is performed 50 times after the power is turned on], the big hit symbol is finally Confirmed display,
If the first effect is executed in a period other than the second period [for example, a period from when the power is turned on until the symbol change display is performed 50 times, etc.], when the first symbol is finally lost, May be confirmed,
