Hereinafter, the control contents executed by the main control CPU 40a and the sub control CPU 41a will be described.
First, the special symbol input process performed by the main control CPU 40a will be described.
The main control CPU 40a determines whether or not a game ball has entered the first starting opening 12 based on whether or not a detection signal from the first starting sensor SE1 has been input (hereinafter, referred to as first input determination). . When the determination result of the first input determination is affirmative, the main control CPU 40a determines whether the first special pending number stored in the main control RAM 40c is less than the upper limit number (4 in this embodiment) (hereinafter , The first hold determination). If the determination result of the first suspension determination is affirmative, the main control CPU 40a adds 1 to the first special suspension number and updates it. Further, the main control CPU 40a controls the information display panel 22 so as to display the updated first special reserved number. The main control CPU 40a stores, in the output buffer, control information (hereinafter, referred to as a first hold number command) capable of specifying the updated first special hold number. The control information (command) stored in the output buffer is output to the sub-board 41 in the interrupt processing after the next time. When the determination result of the first hold determination is affirmative, the main control CPU 40a acquires a random number generated in the main board 40 and stores random number information based on the acquired random number in the main control RAM 40c. At this time, the main control CPU 40a stores the random number information for the first special game so that the random number information can be specified in the storage order. In the present embodiment, the random number information for the first special game is stored in the main control RAM 40c, so that the execution thereof is suspended until the execution condition of the first special game is satisfied. The pachinko gaming machine 10 can suspend execution of the first special game. The random number information may be the acquired random number itself or information obtained by processing the random number by a predetermined method. Note that, for example, the random number is a random number used in the jackpot lottery, a random number used to determine the jackpot symbol, a random number used to determine the variation pattern, and the like.

  In addition, after storing the random number information for the first special game in the main control RAM 40c, the main control CPU 40a causes the second start opening 13 to enter based on whether or not the detection signal from the second start sensor SE2 is input. It is determined whether a game ball has entered (hereinafter referred to as the second input determination). If the determination result of the first input determination is negative, the main control CPU 40a performs the second input determination. Similarly, when the determination result of the first hold determination is negative, the main control CPU 40a makes a second input determination. When the determination result of the second input determination is negative, the main control CPU 40a ends the special symbol input process. On the other hand, when the determination result of the second input determination is affirmative, the main control CPU 40a determines whether the second special suspension number stored in the main control RAM 40c is less than the upper limit number (4 in this embodiment). (Hereinafter, referred to as a second hold determination). When the determination result of the second hold determination is negative, the main control CPU 40a ends the special symbol input process.

  When the determination result of the second suspension determination is affirmative, the main control CPU 40a adds 1 to the second special suspension number and updates it. The main control CPU 40a controls the information display panel 22 so as to display the updated second special reserved number. Further, the main control CPU 40a stores, in the output buffer, control information (hereinafter, referred to as a second hold number command) capable of specifying the updated second special hold number. Moreover, when the determination result of the second hold determination is affirmative, the main control CPU 40a acquires a random number generated in the main board 40, stores random number information based on the acquired random number in the main control RAM 40c, and a special symbol. Input processing ends. At this time, the main control CPU 40a stores the random number information for the second special game so that the random number information can be specified in the storage order. In the present embodiment, the random number information for the second special game is stored in the main control RAM 40c, so that the execution thereof is suspended until the execution condition of the second special game is satisfied. The pachinko gaming machine 10 can suspend execution of the second special game. As described above, the pachinko gaming machine 10 is configured to be able to suspend the execution of the special game.

Next, the special symbol start process performed by the main control CPU 40a will be described.
The main control CPU 40a determines whether or not the special game execution condition is satisfied (hereinafter, referred to as execution determination). In the execution determination, the main control CPU 40a makes an affirmative decision when the big hit game is not in progress and is not in the special game, while making a negative decision when it is in the big hit game or in the special game. When the determination result of the execution determination is negative, the main control CPU 40a ends the special symbol start process. On the other hand, when the determination result of the execution determination is affirmative, the main control CPU 40a determines whether or not the second special pending number stored in the main control RAM 40c is 1 or more. When the second special reserved number is 1 or more, the main control CPU 40a performs a second special symbol start process related to the execution of the second special game. After performing the second special symbol start process, the main control CPU 40a determines whether or not the first special reserved number stored in the main control RAM 40c is 1 or more. If the second special pending number is not 1 or more, the main control CPU 40a determines whether the first special pending number stored in the main control RAM 40c is 1 or more. If the first special reserved number is not 1 or more, the main control CPU40a ends the special symbol start process. On the other hand, if the first special reserve number is 1 or more, the main control CPU40a, after performing the first special symbol start process related to the execution of the first special game, ends the special symbol start process. Note that the main control CPU 40a is control information (hereinafter, referred to as a demo command) that can specify the standby state when the first special pending number is 0 and the second special pending number is 0. Is stored in the output buffer. Incidentally, the main control CPU40a does not store the demo command in the output buffer until the first special symbol start process or the second special symbol start process is performed after the demo command is stored in the output buffer. That is, the demo command is stored in the output buffer only once until the special game is executed after the first special hold number and the second special hold number become 0.

  In the first special symbol start process, the main control CPU 40a updates the first special reserved number stored in the main control RAM 40c by subtracting 1. The main control CPU 40a controls the information display panel 22 so that the updated first special reserved number is displayed. Further, the main control CPU 40a stores a first reserved number command capable of specifying the updated first special reserved number in the output buffer. Subsequently, the main control CPU 40a reads the random number information stored first among the random number information for the first special game from the main control RAM 40c. Upon reading the earliest random number information, the main control CPU 40a erases the first stored random number information from the main control RAM 40c. Then, the main control CPU 40a determines whether or not to win the big hit, based on the read random number information and the big hit judgment value stored in the main control ROM 40b. This process corresponds to a big hit lottery (big hit determination) of whether or not it is a big hit. For example, whether or not to win the big hit may be determined by whether or not the value of the random number information and the big hit judgment value match. The main control CPU 40a performs a jackpot lottery so that the probability of winning the jackpot is higher in the high-probability state than in the low-probability state. The determination as to whether or not to win the big hit may be made based on whether or not the value obtained by adding the value of the random number information and the big hit judgment value exceeds a predetermined value.

  When a big hit is won in the big hit lottery related to the first special game (big hit lottery in the first special symbol start process), the main control CPU 40a causes the big hit symbol to be fixedly stopped and displayed in the first special game, and the big hit variation pattern. , Is determined. The fact that the jackpot pattern is determined by lottery is equivalent to the type of jackpot being drawn.

  On the other hand, when the big hit is not won in the big hit lottery related to the first special game (in the case of losing), the main control CPU 40a determines the hit pattern to be fixedly stopped and displayed in the first special game and the hit variation pattern. . For example, when the big hit is not won in the big hit lottery related to the first special game, the main control CPU 40a performs the reach lottery, and when the reach lottery is won, the main reach control lottery determines the shift reach variation pattern and does not reach the lottery. When winning, the variation pattern without shift reach may be determined. The main control CPU 40a may determine the special symbol or the variation pattern by lottery using the read random number information. After that, the main control CPU 40a stores the control information (hereinafter, referred to as a symbol command) that can specify the determined special symbol and the control information (hereinafter, referred to as a variation pattern designation command) that can specify the variation pattern in the output buffer. , The first special symbol start process ends.

  In the second special symbol start processing, the main control CPU 40a updates the second special reserved number stored in the main control RAM 40c by subtracting 1. The main control CPU 40a controls the information display panel 22 so that the updated second special reserved number is displayed. Further, the main control CPU 40a stores in the output buffer a second hold number command capable of specifying the updated second special hold number. Subsequently, the main control CPU 40a reads the random number information stored first among the random number information for the second special game from the main control RAM 40c. Upon reading the earliest random number information, the main control CPU 40a erases the first stored random number information from the main control RAM 40c. Then, the main control CPU 40a determines whether or not to win the big hit, based on the read random number information and the big hit judgment value stored in the main control ROM 40b. This process corresponds to a big hit lottery (big hit determination) of whether or not it is a big hit. When a big hit is won in the big hit lottery related to the second special game (big hit lottery in the second special symbol start processing), the main control CPU 40a causes the big hit symbol to be fixedly stopped and displayed in the second special game, and the big hit variation pattern. decide. The main control CPU 40a determines a variation pattern in which the variation time is short in the variation shortening state (or easily determines a variation pattern in which the variation time is short) as compared with the non-variation reduction state. After that, the main control CPU 40a stores the symbol command and the variation pattern designation command in the output buffer, and ends the second special symbol start process.

  On the other hand, when the big hit is not won in the big hit lottery related to the second special game (in the case of losing), the main control CPU 40a determines the hit pattern to be fixedly stopped and displayed in the second special game and the hit variation pattern. . For example, when the big hit is not won in the big hit lottery related to the first special game, the main control CPU 40a performs the reach lottery, and when the reach lottery is won, the main reach control lottery determines the shift reach variation pattern and does not reach the lottery. When winning, the variation pattern without shift reach may be determined. The main control CPU 40a may determine the special symbol or the variation pattern by lottery using the read random number information. After that, the main control CPU 40a stores the symbol command and the variation pattern designation command in the output buffer, and ends the second special symbol start process.

  Then, when the special symbol start process ends, the main control CPU 40a performs a process different from the special symbol start process to execute the special game. Specifically, the main control CPU 40a controls the information display panel 22 so that the special game is started. The main control CPU 40a measures the variation time associated with the variation pattern determined in the special symbol start process. Then, the main control CPU 40a controls the information display panel 22 so that the special symbol determined in the special symbol start process is displayed in a fixed stop when the variation time associated with the variation pattern elapses. Further, the main control CPU 40a stores a game end command for finalizing and stopping the symbol combination of the effect symbols in the output buffer when the variation time period associated with the variation pattern determined in the special symbol start process has elapsed.

Next, the prize ball processing performed by the main control CPU 40a will be described.
When the detection signal from the first start sensor SE1 is input, the main control CPU 40a controls so that a predetermined number of game balls are paid out. When the detection signal from the second start sensor SE2 is input, the main control CPU 40a controls so that a predetermined number of game balls are paid out. When the detection signal from the count sensor SE3 is input, the main control CPU 40a controls so that a predetermined number of game balls are paid out.

Next, the big hit process performed by the main control CPU 40a will be described.
The main control CPU 40a executes a big hit process after causing the big hit symbol to be fixedly stopped and displayed in the special game, and causes a big hit game. In the big hit process, the main control CPU 40a specifies the kind of big hit game based on the big hit symbol (that is, kind of big hit) determined in the special symbol start process. Then, the main control CPU 40a starts control for causing the specified big hit game after the end of the big hit special game. Therefore, the main control CPU 40a causes a big hit game by executing a big hit process. As described above, in the pachinko gaming machine 10, the big hit game is generated after the big hit is won. That is, in the pachinko gaming machine 10, when the big hit is won, the big hit game is generated after the end of the special game.

  In the big hit process, the main control CPU 40a stores the opening command in the output buffer. The main control CPU 40a measures the opening time when the opening command is stored in the output buffer. Further, the main control CPU40a, when the opening time has elapsed, performs a process for executing a round game. That is, the main control CPU 40a controls the second actuator A2 to open the special winning opening 14 according to the opening mode (opening pattern), and starts the round game. After starting the round game, the main control CPU 40a controls the second actuator A2 so that the special winning opening 14 is closed when the first round ending condition or the second round ending condition is satisfied, and the round game is ended. Let The main control CPU 40a repeats the processing for executing the round game until the upper limit number of round games defined for the big hit game is completed. The main control CPU 40a stores the round command in the output buffer each time the round game is started. In addition, the main control CPU 40a stores the ending command in the output buffer when the final round game is completed. The main control CPU 40a measures the ending time when the ending command is stored in the output buffer. Then, the main control CPU 40a ends the big hit process when the ending time has elapsed.

Next, a game state process performed by the main control CPU 40a will be described.
Main control CPU40a, after the big hit game which is based on the 1st big hit design ends, the probability state flag which is remembered in main control RAM40c, sets the value which can specify controlling to high probability state. The main control CPU 40a outputs control information (hereinafter, referred to as a high probability state command) capable of specifying a high probability state when the probability state flag is set to a value capable of specifying control in a high probability state. Store in buffer. In addition, the main control CPU40a, after the big hit game based on the second big hit symbol, the probability state flag stored in the main control RAM40c, a value that can be specified to control the low probability state is set. Further, the main control CPU 40a, when setting a value capable of specifying control in a low probability state in the probability state flag, control information capable of specifying a low probability state (hereinafter referred to as a low probability state command). Is stored in the output buffer.

  After the jackpot game is over, the main control CPU 40a sets the base state flag stored in the main control RAM 40c to a value capable of specifying that the high base state is controlled. The main control CPU 40a outputs control information (hereinafter, referred to as a high base state command) capable of specifying the high base state when a value capable of specifying the high base state is set in the base state flag. Store in buffer. When the main control CPU 40a sets a value capable of specifying control to the high base state, the main control CPU 40a sets the upper limit number of special games to control the high base state as the remaining number of special games to which the high base state is given. It is stored in the control RAM 40c. Specifically, the main control CPU 40a, after the big hit game based on the first big hit symbol is "100" as the upper limit number of special games to control to a high base state, high after the big hit game based on the second big hit symbol. "50" is set as the upper limit number of special games controlled to the base state.

  Then, the main control CPU 40a subtracts 1 from the remaining number of times of the special game to which the high base state is given, each time the special game is executed. When the remaining number of times of the special game to which the high base state is given becomes 0, the main control CPU 40a controls the base state flag to the low base state with the end of the special game in which the remaining number of times becomes 0. Set a value that can identify. The main control CPU 40a outputs control information (hereinafter, referred to as a low base state command) capable of specifying the low base state when a value capable of specifying the control to the low base state is set in the base state flag. Store in buffer. Incidentally, the main control CPU40a, when the big hit game occurs, sets a value capable of specifying controlling to a low probability state to the probability state flag, and a value capable of specifying controlling to a low base state to the base state flag, respectively. To do.

Next, the normal symbol input process performed by the main control CPU 40a will be described.
In the normal symbol input process, the main control CPU 40a determines whether or not the game ball has passed (entered) the gate 18 based on whether a detection signal has been input from the gate sensor SE4. When the game ball has not passed through the gate 18, the main control CPU 40a normally ends the symbol input process. On the other hand, when the game ball passes through the gate 18, the main control CPU 40a determines whether or not the number of ordinary holdings stored in the main control RAM 40c is less than the upper limit number (4 in this embodiment). When the number of ordinary reservations is not less than the upper limit number, the main control CPU 40a ends the ordinary symbol input processing. When the number of ordinary reservations is less than the upper limit number, the main control CPU 40a updates the number of ordinary reservations stored in the main control RAM 40c by adding 1. In this case, the main control CPU 40a controls the information display panel 22 so as to display the updated normal hold number. Further, the main control CPU 40a stores control information (hereinafter, referred to as a normal hold number command) capable of specifying the updated normal hold number in the output buffer. Next, the main control CPU 40a acquires a random number generated in the main board 40 and stores random number information based on the acquired random number in the main control RAM 40c. In this case, the main control CPU 40a stores the random number information for the normal game so that the random number information can be specified in the storage order. After that, the main control CPU 40a ends the normal symbol input process.

Next, the normal symbol start process performed by the main control CPU 40a will be described.
In the normal symbol start process, the main control CPU 40a determines whether or not the execution condition of the normal game is satisfied. The main control CPU 40a makes an affirmative judgment when the normal hit game is not being executed and is not being executed in the normal game, while making a negative judgment in the normal hit game or being in the normal game. When the execution condition of the normal game is not satisfied, the main control CPU 40a ends the normal symbol start processing. On the other hand, when the execution condition of the normal game is satisfied, the main control CPU 40a determines whether the normal hold number stored in the main control RAM 40c is 1 or more. If the number normally reserved is not 1 or more, the main control CPU40a ends the normal symbol start processing. When the number of ordinary reservations is 1 or more, the main control CPU 40a subtracts 1 from the number of ordinary reservations stored in the main control RAM 40c to update it. In this process, the main control CPU 40a controls the information display panel 22 so that the updated normal hold number is displayed. Further, the main control CPU 40a stores an ordinary reservation number command capable of specifying the updated ordinary reservation number in the output buffer.

  Next, the main control CPU 40a reads the random number information stored first among the random number information for the normal game from the main control RAM 40c. When the main control CPU 40a reads the first random number information, it erases the first stored random number information from the main control RAM 40c. Subsequently, the main control CPU 40a determines whether or not to win the normal win based on the read random number information and the normal win determination value stored in the main control ROM 40b. This process corresponds to a normal win lottery (normal win determination) of whether or not it is a normal win. For example, the main control CPU 40a may perform the normal win lottery so that the probability of winning the normal win is higher in the high base state than in the low base state. When winning in a normal win, the main control CPU 40a determines a normal win symbol to be derived in the normal game and a variation time of the normal game. After that, the main control CPU 40a normally ends the symbol start process. For example, in the high base state, the main control CPU 40a determines a short time as the variation time of the normal game (or easily determines a short time as the variation time of the normal game) in the high base state. Good. The main control CPU 40a may be configured to determine the variation time of the normal game by determining the regular variation pattern in which the variation time of the regular game is set. The normal fluctuation pattern may be stored in the main control ROM 40b.

  Then, the main control CPU 40a executes the normal game by performing a process different from the normal symbol start process. Specifically, the main control CPU 40a starts the normal game, and when the fluctuation time determined in the normal symbol start processing elapses, the normal symbol determined in the normal symbol start processing is derived so that the information display panel is derived. 22 is controlled. Further, the main control CPU 40a stores, in the output buffer, control information capable of specifying that the execution of the normal game is started along with the start of the execution of the normal game.

Next, the normal hit process performed by the main control CPU 40a will be described.
After the end of the normal hit normal game, the main control CPU 40a performs the normal hit processing. In the normal hit process, the main control CPU 40a starts control for causing the normal hit game depending on whether it is in the high base state or the low base state. The main control CPU 40a causes the normal hit by performing the normal hit process. In this way, in the pachinko gaming machine 10, the normal hit game is generated after the normal hit is won. In addition, generating a normal hit game is equivalent to giving a normal hit game. In the normal hit process, when in the high base state, the main control CPU 40a controls the first actuator A1 so that the second starting opening 13 is opened in the opening state in the high base state. Further, when in the low base state, the main control CPU 40a controls the first actuator A1 so that the second starting opening 13 is opened in the opening state in the low base state.

Next, the state process performed by the sub control CPU 41a will be described.
The sub control RAM 41c stores information capable of specifying the game state. The information that can specify the game state stored in the sub-control RAM 41c includes information that can specify which of a low-probability state and a high-probability state (hereinafter referred to as a secondary probability state flag). The information that can specify the game state stored in the sub control RAM 41c includes information that can specify which of the high base state and the low base state (hereinafter, referred to as an auxiliary base state flag). When the low-probability state command is input, the sub-control CPU 41a sets a value capable of specifying the low-probability state in the secondary probability state flag. When the high-probability state command is input, the sub control CPU 41a sets a value capable of specifying the high-probability state in the secondary probability state flag. When the low base state command is input, the sub control CPU 41a sets a value capable of identifying the low base state in the sub base state flag. When the high base state command is input, the sub control CPU 41a sets a value capable of identifying the high base state in the sub base state flag.

Next, the hit effect process performed by the sub control CPU 41a will be described.

Specifically, the sub-control CPU 41a, when the symbol command and the variation pattern designation command are input, controls the execution of the effect game. That is, the sub-control CPU 41a determines a symbol combination based on the effect symbol to be finally stopped and displayed in the effect game, based on the variation pattern designation command and the symbol command. When the special symbol that can be specified from the symbol command is a big hit symbol, the sub-control CPU 41a determines a big hit symbol combination. If the special symbol that can be specified from the symbol command is a falling symbol, the sub-control CPU 41a determines the symbol combination of the falling symbol. When performing the reach effect because the reach condition is satisfied, the sub-control CPU 41a may determine a symbol combination that is out of the reach. In the present embodiment, the reach condition is satisfied when the variation pattern for the reach effect is designated among the deviation variation patterns.

  When the variation pattern designation command is input, the sub control CPU 41a controls the effect display device 11 so as to variably display the effect symbols. That is, the sub-control CPU 41a starts the effect game. The variation pattern designation command can be said to be control information for instructing the start of the effect game based on the variation pattern. Then, the sub-control CPU 41a controls the effect display device 11 to temporarily stop and display the symbol combination based on the determined effect symbol at a predetermined timing. After that, the sub-control CPU 41a controls the effect display device 11 so as to stop and display the symbol combination based on the effect symbols when the game end command is input. Incidentally, when executing the reach effect, the sub-control CPU 41a causes the effect display device 11 to temporarily stop and display the effect symbols on the left column and the right column so that the reach is formed at a predetermined timing in the special game. Control. When executing the super reach effect as the reach effect, the sub-control CPU 41a controls the effect display device 11 so that the normal reach effect is executed after the reach is formed and then the super reach effect is executed. The sub-control CPU 41a may measure a fluctuation time that can be specified from the fluctuation pattern, and control the fixed combination display of the symbol combination when the fluctuation time elapses. In this case, the game end command may be omitted.

  When the demo control command is input, the sub-control CPU 41a causes the effect display device 11 to cause the effect display device 11 to be stopped and displayed in a stop mode in a standby state (for example, rocking the effect pattern to the left or right). 11 to control the standby state. When the demo time elapses without inputting the variation pattern designation command after the demo command is input, the sub-control CPU 41a controls the effect display device 11 so that the customer attraction effect is executed. For example, the customer attraction effect is an effect for notifying that the pachinko gaming machine 10 is in the standby state and obtaining the customer attraction effect, and is also called a demonstration effect (demo effect).

  In the pachinko gaming machine 10 of the present embodiment, an effect may be executed when the operation button BT is operated. In the pachinko gaming machine 10, after the operation promotion effect that prompts the operation of the operation button BT is executed, the effect may be executed when the operation button BT is operated. In addition, in the pachinko gaming machine 10, the effect may be executed when the operation button BT is operated, without the operation promotion effect being executed. In the present embodiment, the operation promotion effect corresponds to the first effect. Further, in the present embodiment, the effect executed when the operation button BT is operated corresponds to the second effect. As described above, the effects in the present embodiment include the first effect and the second effect. Further, in the present embodiment, the effect executed when the operation button BT is operated corresponds to the specific effect. As described above, the effects in the present embodiment include the specific effects.

In the present embodiment, the operation promotion effect is executed on the effect display device 11. The operation promotion effects include a first operation promotion effect, a second operation promotion effect, and a continuous hit promotion effect.
As shown in FIG. 4A, when the first operation promotion effect is executed, the effect display device 11 displays an image G1 simulating the operation button BT that is not operating, and a character urging operation of the operation button BT. And an image MG1 including. It can be said that the first operation promotion effect is an effect of promoting the operation of the operation button BT that is not operating. As shown in FIG. 4B, when the second operation promotion effect is executed, the effect display device 11 displays an image G2 imitating the operating operation button BT and an image MG1. . It can be said that the second operation promotion effect is an effect for promoting the operation of the operating operation button BT. As shown in FIG. 4C, when the continuous hit promotion effect is executed, the effect display device 11 displays an image G1 and an image MG2 including a character prompting the user to continuously operate the operation button BT. Is displayed.

  Further, in the present embodiment, the character for prompting the operation of the operation button BT is the character “Press the button!” In FIGS. 4A and 4B, but the character is not limited to this and, for example, , "Push the button" or the like. Similarly, in the present embodiment, the character that prompts the user to continuously operate the operation button BT is the character “continuous hit!” In FIG. 4C, but the character is not limited to this, and for example, “ It may be a character such as "strike the button repeatedly". In this way, the operation promotion effect is executed by displaying one of the images G1, G2, MG1, and MG2 on the effect display device 11. For this reason, the images G1, G2, MG1, and MG2 correspond to the images of the contents for prompting the operation of the operating means, respectively.

  Hereinafter, the effect related to the operation of the operation button BT and the control related to the execution of the effect will be described. In the present embodiment, the effects related to the operation of the operation button BT include a button notice effect, a continuous hit button effect, a final button effect, a big hit button effect, and a standby button effect.

First, the button advance notice effect will be described.
As shown in FIG. 5A, in the pachinko gaming machine 10, the button advance notice effect may be executed while the effect game is being executed and before the effect pattern is temporarily stopped and displayed. . Therefore, when the reach effect is executed in the effect game, the button advance notice effect is executed before the reach effect. Further, when the button advance notice effect is executed, the operation promotion effect is executed. When the operation button BT is operated while the button notice effect is being executed and the operation promotion effect is being executed, the result of the button notice effect is derived. As shown in FIG. 5B, the result of the button advance notice effect is derived by displaying the character image CG on the effect display device 11. There are a first result, a second result, and a third result as the results derived in the button advance notice effect, and the type of the character image CG displayed on the effect display device 11 differs depending on the result of the button advance notice effect. Then, in the present embodiment, the jackpot expectation level varies depending on the result derived in the button advance notice effect. Specifically, the big hit expectation of the second result is higher than the first result, and the big hit expectation of the third result is higher than the second result. As shown in FIGS. 5A and 5B, the operation promotion effect is executed when the button advance notice effect is executed. In the button advance notice effect in the present embodiment, the first operation promotion effect or the second operation promotion effect is executed as the operation promotion effect. In the button advance notice effect, the operation promotion effect corresponds to the first effect. In the button preview effect, the result of the button preview effect corresponds to the second effect or the specific effect. In addition, in the button preview effect, deriving the result of the button preview effect corresponds to executing the second effect or executing the specific effect.

Here, the control relating to the execution of the button advance notice effect will be described.
After inputting the variation pattern designation command, the sub-control CPU 41a determines whether to execute the button advance notice effect. For example, the sub-control CPU 41a may determine the execution of the button advance notice effect with a probability according to the type of the variation pattern designated by the variation pattern designation command. When the execution of the button advance notice effect is determined, the sub-control CPU 41a determines the result to be derived in the button advance notice effect. In the present embodiment, when a big hit variation pattern is designated, a result with a high jackpot expectation is determined with a higher probability than when a big hit variation pattern is designated. Further, in the present embodiment, when a variation pattern with out-of-reach reach is designated, a result with high jackpot expectation is determined with a higher probability than when a variation pattern without out-of-reach is designated. After that, the sub-control CPU 41a determines which of the first operation promotion effect and the second operation promotion effect is to be executed as the operation promotion effect, that is, the type of operation promotion effect. The sub-control CPU 41a determines the type of operation promotion effect according to the result derived in the button notice effect. In the present embodiment, the second operation promotion effect is determined with a higher probability as the result with a higher jackpot expectation is determined as the result to be derived in the button notice effect. That is, in the button notice effect, the expectation for deriving a result with a higher jackpot expectation is higher when the second operation promotion effect is executed than when the first operation promotion effect is executed. It is high, and as a result, the expectation for jackpots is high.

  When it is determined to execute the button advance notice effect, the sub-control CPU 41a sets the operation valid period (for example, 3 seconds at maximum) related to the button advance notice effect before the effect symbols are temporarily displayed. In this way, when the execution of the button advance notice effect is determined, the operation valid period related to the button advance notice effect is set before the effect symbol is temporarily stopped and displayed. Further, when the execution of the button notice effect is determined, the sub-control CPU 41a controls the effect display device 11 so that the operation promotion effect of the determined type is executed before the effect symbol is temporarily displayed. . At this time, when executing the second operation promotion effect, the sub-control CPU 41a controls the operation unit actuator SA so that the operation button BT operates. Further, when a detection signal from the operation button BT is input within the operation valid period related to the button advance notice effect, the sub-control CPU 41a terminates the execution of the operation promotion effect, and the result of the button advance notice effect is derived. The display device 11 is controlled. That is, when the detection signal from the operation button BT is input during the time from when the operation promotion effect is executed in the button advance notice effect until the operation valid period relating to the button advance notice effect elapses, the sub-control CPU 41a causes the operation promotion effect to be changed. The effect display device 11 is controlled so that the execution is ended and the result of the button notice effect is derived. At this time, the operation valid period related to the button notice effect is also ended.

  In addition, when the detection signal from the operation button BT is not input within the operation valid period related to the button notice effect, the sub control CPU 41a ends the execution of the operation promotion effect. If the detection signal from the operation button BT is not input within the operation valid period related to the button advance notice effect, the sub-control CPU 41a does not perform the control for deriving the result of the button advance notice effect. Further, when the button advance notice effect is executed, the sub-control CPU 41a performs control for deriving the result of the button advance notice effect even if the detection signal from the operation button BT is input outside the operation valid period related to the button advance notice effect. Not performed. As described above, regarding the derivation of the result of the button advance notice effect, the operation of the operation button BT related to the button advance notice effect is valid only within the operation valid period related to the button advance notice effect. Therefore, during the execution of the operation promotion effect in the button advance notice effect, the effect (second effect, specific effect) is generated when the operation of the operation button BT is valid, that is, when the operation button BT is operated. It can be said that it is the effective period of the operation to be executed.

Next, the continuous hit button effect and the final button effect will be described.
The continuous hit button effect and the final button effect are effects that can be executed during execution of the super reach effect. During execution of the super reach effect in the present embodiment, the continuous hit button effect is an effect that can be executed before the final button effect.

First, the continuous hit button effect will be described.
As shown in FIG. 6A, in the pachinko gaming machine 10, the continuous hit button effect is executed while the super reach effect is being executed. In the continuous hit button production, during execution of the super reach production, the production design suggesting that the production design three frames before the production design forming the reach is temporarily stopped and displayed as the production design in the middle row (hereinafter, 3 productions). The preceding fanning effect) is executed. In addition, a production that suggests that the production design two frames before the production design forming the reach is temporarily stopped and displayed as the production design in the middle row with a predetermined interval after the end of the production production three frames before. (Hereinafter, it is shown as a fanning effect two frames before). Furthermore, a production that suggests that the production design that is one frame before the production design that forms the reach is temporarily stopped and displayed as the production design in the middle row with a predetermined interval after the end of the production production that is two frames ahead. (Hereinafter, it is referred to as a fanning effect one frame before). Incidentally, for example, if the production pattern forming the reach is a production design imitating "1", the production design three frames before is a production design imitating "6", and the production design two frames before is "7". The imitation effect pattern, the effect symbol one frame before is an effect pattern imitating “8”. In the following description, there is a case in which the fanned effect before three frames, the fanned effect before two frames, and the fanned effect before one frame are collectively referred to simply as “fanned effect”. Then, in the pachinko gaming machine 10, when the continuous hit button effect is executed, the slanting effect is executed a plurality of times.

  As shown in FIG. 6B, in the pachinko gaming machine 10, when the continuous hit button effect is executed, the continuous hit promotion effect is executed as the operation promotion effect. Specifically, in the pachinko gaming machine 10, the continuous hit promotion effect is executed during the execution of the continuous hit button effect. As shown in FIG. 6B, when executing the continuous hit button effect, the operation promotion effect is executed. If the operation button BT is operated while the flairing effect is being executed and the continuous hit promoting effect is being executed, the attack effect is executed. The attack effect is an effect of attacking the effect design that is temporarily stopped and displayed as the effect design in the middle row, and is executed by displaying the attack image FG on the effect display device 11. Further, the attack effect is executed only for the time required for the attack effect (for example, 300 ms). In the present embodiment, if the attack effect executed for 300 ms is executed immediately before the end of the fantling effect (in the present embodiment, before the end point of time within 300 ms), the fantling effect is It will continue to run after it is finished.

  During the execution of the slanting effect, the effect design that is suggested to be temporarily displayed as the effect design in the middle row is an effect design three frames before the effect design forming the reach, rather than the effect design forming the reach. It becomes any one of the effect design one frame before the effect design two frames before and the effect design forming the reach. In other words, if the production symbols that are suggested to be temporarily stopped and displayed as the effect symbols in the middle row are actually stopped and displayed, the symbol combinations that are out of order will be temporarily stopped and displayed. Then, when the continuous hit button effect is executed, the attack effect is executed each time the operation button BT is operated by continuously operating the operation button BT, so the attack effect is repeated many times. To be executed. Therefore, by performing the attack effect, it is possible to prevent the effect design which is suggested to be temporarily displayed as the effect design in the middle row from being actually stopped and displayed. be able to. In the continuous hit button effect, the continuous hit promotion effect corresponds to the first effect. In the continuous hit button effect, the attack effect corresponds to the second effect or the specific effect. The attack effect corresponding to the second effect or the specific effect is executed by displaying the attack image FG on the effect display device 11. Therefore, the attack image FG corresponds to the specific image.

Here, the control relating to the execution of the continuous hit button effect will be described.
When the continuous hit button effect is executed during execution of the super reach effect, the sub-control CPU 41a sets an operation valid period (for example, 4 seconds) related to the continuous hit button effect. At this time, the sub-control CPU 41a sets the operation valid period for the continuous hit button effect three times within the period for executing the continuous hit button effect. It should be noted that, within the period in which the continuous hit button effect is executed, the operation valid period relating to the first continuous hit button effect is the operation valid period relating to the tilt effect three frames before, and the operation valid period relating to the second consecutive hit button effect is It can be said that the operation valid period related to the fanning effect two frames before is the operation valid period related to the third hitting button effect is the operation valid period related to the fanning effect one frame before. In this way, when the continuous hit button effect is executed, a plurality of operation valid periods related to the continuous hit button effect are set within a predetermined period during execution of the special game. When executing the continuous hit button effect during the execution of the super reach effect, the sub-control CPU 41a, after the end of the operation valid period of the first continuous hit button effect within the period of executing the continuous hit button effect, a predetermined invalid time When elapses, the operation valid period related to the second continuous hit button effect within the period for executing the continuous hit button effect is set. Similarly, when executing the continuous hit button effect during execution of the super reach effect, the sub-control CPU 41a sets a predetermined value after the operation valid period for the second continuous hit button effect within the period in which the continuous hit button effect is executed. When the invalid time of No. elapses, the operation valid period related to the third continuous hit button effect is set within the period in which the continuous hit button effect is executed. By the way, even if the operation button BT is operated, the attack is performed during the operation valid period related to the continuous hit button effect and the period until the predetermined invalid time until the valid period related to the continuous hit button effect subsequent to the operation valid period. The production is not executed. Therefore, among the plurality of operation valid periods within the predetermined period, during the predetermined operation valid period and the operation valid period next to the predetermined operation valid period, the production is triggered by the operation of the operation means (second It becomes an operation invalid period during which the effects (specific effects) are not executed. In the following description, the operation valid period related to the continuous hit button effect and a period until a predetermined invalid time until the valid period related to the continuous hit button effect subsequent to the operation valid period elapses are referred to as "operation invalid related to continuous hit button effect". "Period". Incidentally, in the present embodiment, the predetermined invalid time is set to “200 ms”.

  During execution of the continuous hit button effect, the sub-control CPU 41a controls the effect display device 11 so that the continuous hit promotion effect is executed. In the present embodiment, during the execution of the continuous hit button effect, the continuous hit promotion effect is executed irrespective of whether it is the operation valid period for the continuous hit button effect or the operation invalid period for the continuous hit button effect. By the way, since the operation invalid period related to the continuous hit button effect is as short as "500 ms" as described above, compared with the case where the execution of the continuous hit promotion effect is temporarily interrupted in a short time of "500 ms", the continuous hit promotion is performed. It is more difficult for the player to feel uncomfortable if the production is continued without interruption.

  Further, when the detection signal from the operation button BT is input within the operation valid period related to the continuous hit button effect, the sub control CPU 41a controls the effect display device 11 so that the attack effect is executed. For example, the sub-control CPU 41a does not stop the execution of the attack effect even if the operation valid period for the continuous hit button effect ends during the execution of the attack effect. If the detection signal from the operation button BT is input within the operation valid period for the continuous hit button effect while the attack effect is being executed, the sub control CPU 41a cancels the attack effect being executed and newly attacks. The effect display device 11 is controlled so that the effect is executed.

  Even when the operation button BT is operated within the operation valid period for the continuous hit button effect, the operation valid period for the continuous hit button effect does not end, and the effect display device 11 continues the continuous hit promotion effect. Is executed. That is, in the present embodiment, the continuous hit promotion effect may be executed during the operation invalid period related to the continuous hit button effect. Then, irrespective of whether the detection signal from the operation button BT is input within the operation valid period related to the continuous hit button effect, the sub-control CPU 41a causes the continuous hit promotion with the end of the operation effective period related to the final continuous hit button effect. The execution of the production is ended.

  As described above, regarding the execution of the attack effect, the operation of the operation button BT related to the continuous hit button effect is valid only within the operation valid period related to the continuous hit button effect. Therefore, during the execution of the operation promotion effect in the continuous hit button effect, the effect (second effect, specific effect) is generated when the operation of the operation button BT is valid, that is, when the operation button BT is operated. It can be said that it is the effective period of the operation to be executed.

Next, the final button effect will be described.
As shown in FIG. 6A, in the pachinko gaming machine 10, in the pachinko gaming machine 10, at the final execution timing before the remaining one row of effect symbols is temporarily stopped and displayed in the super reach effect, the final button is pressed. The performance is executed. The final execution timing is the timing after the execution of the continuous hit button effect is finished when the continuous hit button effect is executed in the super reach effect.

  As shown in FIG. 7A, when the final button effect is executed, the operation promotion effect is executed. When the operation button BT is operated while the final button effect is being executed and the operation promotion effect is being executed, the result of the final button effect is derived. The results derived by the final button effect in the present embodiment include a first final result derived when a big hit occurs and a second final result derived when a big hit occurs. As shown in FIG. 7B, when the first final result is derived in the final button effect, the internal movable body 90 operates and the effect display device 11 produces an effect according to the operation of the internal movable body 90. The image EF1 is displayed. When the first final result is derived in the final button effect, the jackpot symbol combination is temporarily stopped and displayed in the effect game. On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 7C, when the second final result is derived by the final button effect, the internal movable body 90 does not operate and the effect display device 11 displays an effect image different from the effect image EF1. EF2 is displayed. When the second final result is derived by the final button effect, the symbol combination that is out of order in the effect game is temporarily stopped and displayed. As shown in FIGS. 7A to 7C, when the final button effect is executed, the operation promotion effect is executed. In the final button effect in the present embodiment, the first operation promotion effect or the second operation promotion effect is executed as the operation promotion effect. In the final button effect, the operation promotion effect corresponds to the first effect. In the final button effect, the result of the final button effect corresponds to the second effect or the specific effect. Further, in the final button effect, deriving the result of the final button effect corresponds to executing the second effect or executing the specific effect.

Here, the control relating to the execution of the final button effect will be described.
When executing the super reach effect, the sub-control CPU 41a determines which of the first operation promotion effect and the second operation promotion effect is to be executed as the operation promotion effect in the final button effect, that is, determines the type of the operation promotion effect. . In the present embodiment, when the big hit variation pattern is specified (when the big hit occurs), the second operation promotion effect is determined with a higher probability than when the big deviation variation pattern is specified (when the big hit occurs). It That is, in the final button effect, the jackpot expectation is higher when the second operation promotion effect is executed than when the first operation promotion effect is executed.

  Then, at the final execution timing, the sub control CPU 41a sets an operation valid period (for example, 5 seconds at maximum) related to the final button effect. Further, at the final execution timing, the sub control CPU 41a controls the effect display device 11 so that the operation promotion effect of the determined type is executed. At this time, when executing the second operation promotion effect, the sub-control CPU 41a controls the operation unit actuator SA so that the operation button BT operates. When the detection signal from the operation button BT is input within the operation valid period for the final button effect, the sub-control CPU 41a terminates the execution of the operation promotion effect and derives the result of the final button effect. The display device 11 is controlled. At this time, the operation valid period related to the final button effect also ends. When deriving the first final result, the sub-control CPU 41a controls the second effect actuator EA2 so that the internal movable body 90 operates. Further, the sub-control CPU 41a controls the effect display device 11 so that the effect image EF1 is displayed. On the other hand, when deriving the second final result, the sub-control CPU 41a controls the effect display device 11 so that the effect image EF2 is displayed. Moreover, when deriving the result of the final button effect, the sub-control CPU 41a controls the effect display device 11 so that the jackpot symbol combination or the outlying symbol combination is temporarily stopped and displayed.

  If the detection signal from the operation button BT is not input within the operation valid period for the final button effect, the sub control CPU 41a ends the execution of the operation promotion effect. Then, when the detection signal from the operation button BT is not input within the operation valid period related to the final button effect, the sub-control CPU 41a does not perform control for deriving the result of the final button effect. Incidentally, even when the detection signal from the operation button BT is not input within the operation effective period related to the final button effect, the sub-control CPU 41a causes the big hit symbol combination or the outlying symbol combination to be temporarily stopped and displayed. The effect display device 11 is controlled. That is, when the operation button BT is not operated within the operation valid period for the final button effect, the result of the final button effect is not derived, but the effect display device 11 temporarily displays the jackpot symbol combination or the outlying symbol combination. It In addition, when the final button effect is executed, the sub-control CPU 41a performs control for deriving the result of the final button effect even if the detection signal from the operation button BT is input outside the operation valid period related to the final button effect. Not performed. As described above, regarding the derivation of the result of the final button effect, the operation of the operation button BT related to the final button effect is valid only within the operation valid period related to the final button effect. Therefore, during the execution of the operation promotion effect in the final button effect, the effect (the second effect, the specific effect) is triggered when the operation of the operation button BT is valid, that is, when the operation button BT is operated. It can be said that it is the effective period of the operation to be executed.

Next, the jackpot button effect will be described.
As shown in FIG. 8A, in the pachinko gaming machine 10, the big hit button effect is executed during the occurrence of the big hit game. In the present embodiment, the big hit button effect is executed in the third round game in the big hit game. When the jackpot button effect is executed, the operation promotion effect is executed. When the operation button BT is operated while the big hit button effect is being executed and the operation promotion effect is being executed, the result of the big hit button effect is derived. The result derived by the big hit button effect in the present embodiment, a high probability result derived when controlled to a high probability state, a low probability result derived when controlled to a low probability state, There is. As shown in FIG. 8B, when a high-probability result is derived in the big hit button effect, the upper movable body 80 operates and the effect display device 11 is informed that the high probability state is controlled. Ga is displayed. On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 8C, when the low probability result is derived in the big hit button effect, the upper movable body 80 does not operate and the effect display device 11 is notified that the high probability state is not controlled. The image Gb to be displayed is displayed. As shown in FIGS. 8A to 8C, when executing the big hit button effect, the operation promotion effect is executed. In the jackpot button effect in the present embodiment, a first operation promotion effect or a second operation promotion effect is executed as the operation promotion effect. In the jackpot button effect, the operation promotion effect corresponds to the first effect. In the big hit button effect, the result of the big hit button effect corresponds to the second effect. In the big hit button effect, deriving the result of the big hit button effect corresponds to executing the second effect or executing the specific effect.

Here, the control relating to the execution of the big hit button effect will be described.
With the start of the third round game in the big hit game, the sub-control CPU 41a executes which of the first operation promotion effect and the second operation promotion effect as the operation promotion effect in the big hit button effect, that is, the operation promotion effect. Determine the type of. In the present embodiment, when a big hit game based on the first big hit symbol (when controlled to a high probability state), a big hit based on a second big hit symbol (when not controlled to a high probability state) Then, the second operation promotion effect is determined with high probability. That is, in the jackpot button effect, the degree of expectation of being controlled to the high probability state is higher when the second operation promotion effect is executed than when the first operation promotion effect is executed.

  Then, in the third round game in the big hit game, the sub-control CPU 41a sets an operation valid period related to the big hit button effect (for example, a period until the third round game ends). Further, in the third round game in the big hit game, the sub control CPU 41a controls the effect display device 11 so that the operation promotion effect of the determined type is executed. At this time, when executing the second operation promotion effect, the sub-control CPU 41a controls the operation unit actuator SA so that the operation button BT operates. In addition, when the detection signal from the operation button BT is input within the operation valid period related to the big hit button effect, the sub-control CPU 41a terminates the execution of the operation promotion effect and derives the result of the big hit button effect. The display device 11 is controlled. At this time, the operation valid period related to the big hit button effect is also ended. Moreover, when deriving a high-probability result, the sub-control CPU 41a controls the first effect actuator EA1 so that the upper movable body 80 operates. Further, the sub-control CPU 41a controls the effect display device 11 so that the image Ga is displayed. On the other hand, when deriving a low-probability result, the sub-control CPU 41a controls the effect display device 11 so that the image Gb is displayed.

  If the detection signal from the operation button BT is not input within the operation valid period related to the big hit button effect, the sub-control CPU 41a ends the execution of the operation promotion effect. On the other hand, if the detection signal from the operation button BT is not input within the operation valid period related to the big hit button effect, the sub-control CPU 41a does not perform control for deriving the result of the big hit button effect. Further, when the big hit button effect is executed, the sub-control CPU 41a performs control for deriving the result of the big hit button effect even if the detection signal from the operation button BT is input outside the operation valid period related to the big hit button effect. Not performed. As described above, regarding the derivation of the result of the big hit button effect, the operation of the operation button BT related to the big hit button effect is valid only within the operation valid period related to the big hit button effect. Therefore, during the execution of the operation promotion effect in the jackpot button effect, the effect (the second effect, the specific effect) is triggered when the operation of the operation button BT is valid, that is, when the operation button BT is operated. It can be said that it is the effective period of the operation to be executed.

Next, the standby button effect will be described.
As shown in FIG. 9A, in the pachinko gaming machine 10, the customer display effect is executed on the effect display device 11 in the standby state. Then, as shown in FIG. 9B, when the operation button BT is operated within the execution period of the customer attraction effect, a heart image G10 imitating a heart is displayed on the effect display device 11, and the standby button effect is executed. It As shown in FIGS. 9A and 9B, when executing the standby button effect, the operation promoting effect is not executed. That is, in executing the standby button effect, the standby button effect is executed when the operation button BT is operated without executing the operation promotion effect, and therefore, the effect is developed in the second effect route. It will be. In the standby button effect, the effect in which the heart image G10 is displayed when the operation button BT is operated corresponds to the second effect or the specific effect.

Here, the control relating to the execution of the standby button effect will be described.
The sub-control CPU 41a sets the execution period of the customer waiting effect as the operation valid period related to the standby button effect. During the operation valid period related to the standby button effect (during the customer waiting effect execution period), when the detection signal from the operation button BT is input, the sub control CPU 41a displays the heart image G10 and executes the standby button effect. Then, the effect display device 11 is controlled. By the way, if the customer waiting performance is not being executed even in the standby state, the sub-control CPU 41a does not perform control for executing the standby button performance even if a detection signal from the operation button BT is input. As described above, with respect to the execution of the standby button effect, the operation of the operation button BT related to the standby button effect is valid only within the operation valid period related to the standby button effect (the execution period of the customer waiting effect). Therefore, the standby button effect period is an effective period during which the operation of the operation button BT is valid, that is, an operation effect in which an effect (second effect, specific effect) is executed when the operation button BT is operated. It can be called a period.

  In the present embodiment, the operation valid period related to the button notice effect, the operation valid period related to the continuous hit button effect, the operation valid period related to the final button effect, the operation valid period related to the jackpot button effect, and the operation valid period related to the standby button effect are It can be said that it is an operation valid period in which an effect is executed when the operation button BT is operated and the operation of the operation button BT is valid. On the other hand, during periods other than the operation valid period related to the button notice effect, the operation valid period related to the continuous hit button effect, the operation valid period related to the final button effect, the operation valid period related to the jackpot button effect, and the operation valid period related to the standby button effect, It can be said that the effect is not executed when the operation button BT is operated and the operation of the operation button BT is disabled, which is an operation invalid period. In the following description, the operation invalid period during which the operation of the operation button BT is invalid, excluding the invalid period related to the continuous hit button effect during execution of the continuous hit button effect, may be referred to as a “button operation invalid period”. In addition, in the present embodiment, the button operation invalid period includes a period in which the operation promotion effect is not executed, and the operation promotion effect may not be executed in some cases. In addition, in the present embodiment, the button operation invalid period includes a period in which the effect executed by the operation of the operation button BT is not executed, and the effect executed by the operation of the operation button BT is not executed. is there.

  As described above, in the present embodiment, the effect display device 11 realizes a function as an effect execution unit that executes an effect. Then, the effects executed by the effect display device 11 in the present embodiment include, in addition to effect games, customer attraction effects, operation promotion effects, button notice effects, continuous hit button effects, final button effects, jackpot button effects, and standby button effects. Be done. That is, the effects executed by the effect executing means include an effect that prompts the operation of the operation means (first effect) and an effect that is executed when the operation means is operated (second effect, specific effect). There is.

  The pachinko gaming machine 10 of the present embodiment is configured to be able to notify a magnetic detection error when magnetism is detected by the magnetic sensor JS. In the present embodiment, the case where the magnetism is detected by the magnetic sensor JS corresponds to the case where the occurrence of the magnetism detection error is detected.

  Further, the pachinko gaming machine 10 is configured to be able to notify a vibration detection error when the vibration is detected by the vibration sensor SS. In the present embodiment, the case where the vibration is detected by the vibration sensor SS corresponds to the case where the occurrence of the vibration detection error is detected. Specifically, when the vibration sensor SS detects vibration, a vibration detection signal is output. The time when the vibration detection signal is output when the vibration sensor SS of the present embodiment detects vibration is “200 ms”. As described above, the vibration detection signal output from the vibration sensor SS is input to the main control CPU 40a via the port. Then, the main control CPU 40a performs control related to vibration detection when the time when the vibration detection signal is input exceeds a predetermined time. In the present embodiment, the predetermined time is set to "140 ms", and the main control CPU 40a performs control relating to vibration detection when the time when the vibration detection signal is input exceeds 140 ms. In addition, when the time when the vibration detection signal is input exceeds 140 ms, it can be said that when the time when the vibration detection signal is input reaches 140 ms. In the present embodiment, the main control CPU 40a performs control related to vibration detection, thereby realizing a function as a control unit that performs control related to vibration detection. Further, in the present embodiment, the predetermined time (140 ms in the present embodiment) is shorter than the time (200 ms in the present embodiment) at which the vibration detection signal is output when the vibration sensor SS detects the vibration. In the present embodiment, when the vibration sensor SS detects vibration, basically, the time during which the vibration detection signal is input to the main control CPU 40a exceeds a predetermined time. Therefore, the case where the input time of the vibration detection signal exceeds the predetermined time corresponds to the case where the vibration is detected by the vibration sensor SS, that is, the case where the vibration detection unit detects the vibration.

  By the way, due to the nature of the vibration sensor, there is an error in the time when the vibration detection signal is output by the vibration sensor, but the time when the vibration detection signal is output when the vibration sensor detects vibration is in the range of “150 to 200 ms”. It is said to be inside. Then, in the present embodiment, the predetermined time that triggers the control related to the vibration detection is shorter than the minimum time of the output time of the vibration detection signal having an error due to the vibration sensor. In the present embodiment, the main control CPU 40a performs control relating to the detection of vibration when the input time of the vibration detection signal exceeds the predetermined time. Therefore, the vibration is detected when the input time of the vibration detection signal exceeds the predetermined time. It can be said that this is the timing when the pachinko gaming machine 10 is specified. It should be noted that a specific description regarding control relating to vibration detection performed by the main control CPU 40a will be described later.

  As shown in FIG. 10A, in the pachinko gaming machine 10, when the magnetic detection error is notified, the effect display device 11 displays the first error image EG1 related to the magnetic detection error. The magnetic detection error is also called a magnetic sensor error. Further, as shown in FIG. 10B, in the pachinko gaming machine 10, when a vibration detection error is notified, the effect display device 11 displays a second error image EG2 relating to the vibration detection error. In the present embodiment, when the vibration is detected by the vibration sensor SS as the vibration detecting means and the error condition is satisfied, the vibration detection error may be notified. The vibration detection error is also called a vibration sensor error. In the present embodiment, since the effect display device 11 notifies the vibration detection error by displaying the second error image EG2, the effect display device 11 realizes a function as an error notification means for notifying the vibration detection error. . Further, the effect display device 11 corresponds to an effect device having a function as an error notification unit and a function as an effect execution unit.

Hereinafter, the control relating to the detection of magnetism performed by the main control CPU 40a and the control relating to the detection of vibration performed by the main control CPU 40a will be described.
First, the control relating to the detection of magnetism performed by the main control CPU 40a and the control performed by the sub control CPU 41a related thereto will be described.

  When the magnetic detection signal is input, the main control CPU 40a executes a security signal output process. In the security signal output process, the main control CPU 40a outputs a security signal. The security signal corresponds to the external signal output from the specific connection terminal when the specific connection terminal of the external terminal board 70 is connected to the external device. When the magnetic detection signal is input, the main control CPU 40a executes the output processing of the magnetic detection command. In the output process of the magnetic detection command, the main control CPU 40a stores control information (hereinafter, referred to as a magnetic detection command) capable of specifying that the magnetism is detected in the output buffer.

  When the magnetic detection command is input, the sub control CPU 41a executes a magnetic detection error notification process. In the notification process of the magnetic detection error, the sub-control CPU 41a controls the effect display device 11 so that the first error image EG1 is displayed, and notifies the magnetic detection error. As described above, in the pachinko gaming machine 10, when the magnetism is detected even once by the magnetic sensor JS, the security signal is output. Further, in the pachinko gaming machine 10, if the magnetism is detected even once by the magnetic sensor JS, a magnetic detection error is notified.

Next, the control relating to the detection of magnetism performed by the main control CPU 40a and the control performed by the sub control CPU 41a related thereto will be described.
When the input time of the vibration detection signal exceeds the predetermined time (when the vibration sensor SS detects the vibration), the main control CPU 40a executes a security signal output process. In the present embodiment, the security signal output process is executed regardless of whether the magnetic detection signal is input or the input time of the vibration detection signal exceeds a predetermined time, and the identification in the external terminal board 70 is performed. A security signal is output from the connection terminal of. Further, when the input time of the vibration detection signal exceeds the predetermined time, the main control CPU 40a executes the output processing of the vibration detection command. In the output process of the vibration detection command, the main control CPU 40a stores control information (hereinafter referred to as a vibration detection command) capable of specifying that the vibration is detected in the output buffer. As described above, in the present embodiment, at least one of the security signal output process and the vibration detection command output process executed when the vibration sensor SS detects vibration is performed by the main control CPU 40a as the control unit. This corresponds to control relating to vibration detection.

  When the vibration detection command is input, the sub control CPU 41a may update the number of vibration detections stored in the sub control RAM 41c. When updating the vibration detection count, the sub-control CPU 41a adds 1 to the vibration detection count and updates the vibration detection count. In the present embodiment, the number of vibration detections corresponds to the number of detections of vibrations detected by the vibration sensor SS, that is, the number of detections of vibrations detected by the vibration detection means. Then, in the present embodiment, the sub-control CPU 41a updates the number of times of vibration detection stored in the sub-control RAM 41c to realize a function as a counting unit that counts the number of times of detection of vibration by the vibration detection unit. It

  The sub-control CPU 41a initializes the number of times of vibration detection when the condition for initializing the number of times of vibration detection is satisfied. Specifically, the sub-control CPU 41a measures the update upper limit time after updating the vibration detection number, and when a predetermined update upper limit time (for example, 5 minutes) has passed without updating the vibration update information, the sub control CPU 41a measures the vibration detection number. The initial value “0 (zero)” is set to, and the number of vibration detections is initialized. Therefore, in the present embodiment, the initialization condition is satisfied when the predetermined update upper limit time elapses without updating the vibration detection number after the vibration detection number is updated. In addition, when the big hit game is over, the sub control CPU 41a sets the initial value "0 (zero)" to the number of vibration detections to initialize the number of vibration detections. Therefore, in the present embodiment, when the jackpot game is over, the initialization condition is satisfied. As described above, in the initialization condition for the number of times of vibration detection in the present embodiment, a predetermined update upper limit time (for example, 5 minutes) has elapsed without updating the number of times of vibration detection after the number of times of vibration detection is updated. There are initialization conditions that are satisfied in some cases, and initialization conditions that are satisfied when the big hit game ends. Although the pachinko gaming machine 10 in this embodiment has two such initialization conditions, it may be configured to have only one of them as the initialization condition. As described above, when the initialization condition is satisfied, the vibration detection number counted by the sub-control CPU 41a updating the vibration detection number stored in the sub-control RAM 41c is initialized. That is, in the present embodiment, when the initialization condition is satisfied, the number of detections counted by the counting means is initialized.

  The update upper limit time in this embodiment is set to be longer than the maximum time (eg, 3 minutes) required for one special game. Therefore, the update upper limit time is longer than the time (for example, 8 seconds) required for the button notice presentation. In addition, the update upper limit time is longer than the time (for example, 20 seconds) required for the continuous hit button effect. Also, the update upper limit time is longer than the time required for the final button presentation (for example, 5 seconds). Incidentally, the update upper limit time in this embodiment is longer than the time (for example, 25 seconds) required for the big hit button effect.

  When the vibration detection command is input (when the vibration is detected by the vibration sensor SS) and the error condition is satisfied, the sub-control CPU 41a executes the vibration detection error notification process. In this embodiment, the error condition is satisfied when the number of times of vibration detection after updating reaches a predetermined number (for example, 3 times). That is, in this embodiment, the error condition can be satisfied when the number of detections reaches a predetermined number. Incidentally, if the error condition is satisfied, it means that the error condition is satisfied, and if the error condition is not satisfied, it means that the error condition is not satisfied (or not satisfied). In the notification process of the vibration detection error, the sub-control CPU 41a controls the effect display device 11 so that the second error image EG2 is displayed. As described above, in the present embodiment, the vibration detection error is notified by executing the vibration detection error notification process.

  Incidentally, while the vibration detection error notification processing is being executed and the vibration detection error is being notified, if the condition for initializing the vibration detection number is satisfied, the sub control CPU 41a initializes the vibration detection number while the vibration detection error The notification will not be stopped. That is, while the vibration detection error is being notified, the notification of the vibration detection error continues without being terminated even if the initialization condition for the number of vibration detections is satisfied. Therefore, the effect display device 11 continuously notifies the vibration detection error even if the initialization condition is satisfied while the vibration detection error is being notified. That is, in the present embodiment, the error notifying unit continuously notifies the vibration detection error even if the initialization condition is satisfied while the vibration detection error is being notified.

  In the pachinko gaming machine 10 of the present embodiment, the vibration detection count may not be updated even when the sub-control CPU 41a inputs the vibration detection command. That is, in the present embodiment, even if the vibration sensor SS detects vibration, the error condition may not be satisfied and the vibration detection error may not be notified.

  In the present embodiment, when the vibration detection command is input even though the detection signal from the operation button BT is not input within the operation valid period related to the button announcement effect, the sub control CPU 41a updates the vibration detection count. To do. On the other hand, when the vibration detection command is input when the detection signal from the operation button BT is input during the operation valid period related to the button announcement effect, the sub control CPU 41a does not update the vibration detection count. At this time, the sub-control CPU 41a sets the filter state as the specific state for a specific period from the base point based on the input of the vibration detection command. The filter state is a state in which the vibration detection error is not notified even if the vibration detection command is input when the detection signal from the operation button BT is not input. In the filter state in the present embodiment, the sub-control CPU 41a does not update the number of vibration detections even if the vibration detection command is input when the detection signal from the operation button BT is not input. Therefore, in the filter state, even if the vibration detection command is input even though the operation button BT is not operated, the vibration detection frequency is not updated and the vibration detection error is not notified.

  Incidentally, in the present embodiment, the specific period during which the filter state is set when the vibration detection command is input is “500 ms”. In the present embodiment, the sub control CPU 41a measures a specific period during which the filter state is set and sets the filter state. That is, if the sub-control CPU 41a is measuring during the specific period during which the filter state is set, the sub control CPU 41a can specify that the filter state is set. As a result, the pachinko gaming machine 10 is in the filter state.

  As described above, in the present embodiment, when the vibration is detected by the vibration sensor SS during the operation valid period related to the button advance notice effect, that is, during the execution of the operation promotion effect, the number of times of vibration detection is The vibration detection error may not be notified without being updated.

  Further, in the present embodiment, when the vibration detection command is input while the result of the button notice effect is derived, the sub control CPU 41a does not update the vibration detection count. As described above, in the present embodiment, when the result of the button advance notice effect is derived, even if the vibration is detected by the vibration sensor SS, the vibration detection frequency may not be updated and the vibration detection error may not be notified. .

  Further, in the present embodiment, during the period during which the continuous hit button effect is being executed (during the predetermined period) during the execution of the variable game, the detection from the operation button BT is performed regardless of the operation valid period related to the continuous hit button effect. When the vibration detection command is input even though no signal is input, the sub control CPU 41a updates the number of times of vibration detection. At this time, the sub control CPU 41a does not enter the filter state. It should be noted that in the present embodiment, the filter state may be set even during the period during which the repeated hit button effect is being executed. In the filter state, the detection signal from the operation button BT is not input. Even when the vibration detection command is input, the sub control CPU 41a does not update the number of times of vibration detection. For this reason, in the present embodiment, when the vibration sensor SS detects a vibration even when the operation button BT is not operated during the operation valid period related to the repeated hit button effect and the filter state is not set, There is a case where the vibration detection error is notified because the error condition is satisfied without entering the filter state. That is, in the present embodiment, in the operation valid period and in the non-specific state, when the vibration detection unit detects the vibration even though the operation unit is not operated, the specific state does not occur and an error occurs. The vibration detection error may be notified when the condition is satisfied.

  On the other hand, in the present embodiment, among the operation valid periods related to a plurality of continuous button productions within the period in which the continuous button production is executed, the start of the first (first) operation valid period to the end of the final (last) operation valid period. Until then, when the vibration detection command is input when the detection signal is input from the operation button BT, the sub-control CPU 41a does not update the vibration detection count. At this time, the sub-control CPU 41a sets the filter state for a specific period (500 ms in this embodiment) from the base point based on the input of the vibration detection command. As described above, in the present embodiment, the vibration detection unit vibrates from the start of the predetermined number of operation valid periods to the end of the operation valid period after the predetermined number of operation valid periods in the predetermined period. Even if is detected, the vibration detection error is not notified because the error condition is not satisfied.

  As described above, when the vibration detection command is input when the detection signal is input from the operation button BT within the period in which the continuous hit button effect is executed, the sub control CPU 41a sets the filter state. Regardless of whether the timing is the operation valid period related to the continuous hit button effect or the operation invalid period related to the continuous hit button effect, the length of the specific period during which the filter state is set from the base point based on the input of the vibration detection command is “500 ms”. , Will be the same. That is, in the present embodiment, the length of the specific period when the operation unit is in the specific state when the operation unit is operated during the operation valid period within the predetermined period is the operation unit operated during the operation invalid period within the predetermined period. It is the same as the length of the specific period when the specific state occurs.

  Further, as described above, in the present embodiment, the operation valid period relating to the continuous hit button effect and a predetermined invalid time until the valid period relating to the continuous hit button effect subsequent to the operation valid period (the operation invalid period relating to the continuous hit button effect. The length) is “200 ms”. Therefore, in the present embodiment, the length of the operation invalid period within the predetermined period is shorter than the length of the specific period in which the operation state becomes the filter state from the base point based on the input of the vibration detection command.

  By the way, when the filter state is already set when the vibration detection command is input when the detection signal from the operation button BT is input when the filter state is already set, the sub control CPU 41a uses the base point based on the input of the vibration detection command. After that, the filter state is set again for a specific period (500 ms in this embodiment). For example, the sub-control CPU 41a again measures the specific period during which the filter state is set, and sets the filter state. In this case, as a result, the filter state is extended.

  Further, in the present embodiment, when the vibration detection command is input even though the detection signal from the operation button BT is not input within the operation valid period related to the final button effect, the sub control CPU 41a causes the sub control CPU 41a to detect the number of vibration detections. To update. On the other hand, when the vibration detection command is input when the detection signal is input from the operation button BT within the operation valid period related to the final button effect, the sub control CPU 41a does not update the vibration detection count. At this time, the sub-control CPU 41a sets the filter state for a specific period (500 ms in this embodiment) from the base point based on the input of the vibration detection command. As described above, in the present embodiment, when the vibration is detected by the vibration sensor SS during the operation valid period related to the final button effect, that is, during the execution of the operation promotion effect, the number of times of vibration detection is The vibration detection error may not be notified without being updated.

  Further, in the present embodiment, when the vibration detection command is input while the result of the final button effect is derived, the sub control CPU 41a does not update the vibration detection count. As described above, in the present embodiment, when the result of the final button effect is derived, even if the vibration is detected by the vibration sensor SS, the vibration detection frequency may not be updated and the vibration detection error may not be notified. .

  In addition, in the present embodiment, when the vibration detection command is input even though the detection signal from the operation button BT is not input within the operation valid period related to the big hit button effect, the sub control CPU 41a causes the sub control CPU 41a to detect the number of vibrations. To update. On the other hand, when the vibration detection command is input when the detection signal from the operation button BT is input within the operation valid period related to the big hit button effect, the sub control CPU 41a does not update the vibration detection count. At this time, the sub-control CPU 41a sets the filter state for a specific period (500 ms in this embodiment) from the base point based on the input of the vibration detection command. As described above, in the present embodiment, when the vibration is detected by the vibration sensor SS during the operation valid period for the jackpot button effect, that is, when the operation promotion effect is being executed, the number of times of vibration detection is The vibration detection error may not be notified without being updated.

  Further, in the present embodiment, when the vibration detection command is input while the result of the big hit button effect is derived, the sub control CPU 41a does not update the vibration detection frequency. As described above, in the present embodiment, when the result of the big hit button effect is derived, even if the vibration is detected by the vibration sensor SS, the vibration detection frequency may not be updated and the vibration detection error may not be notified. .

  As described above, in the present embodiment, in the button effects in which the operation promotion effects are executed, such as the button notice effect, the continuous hit button effect, the final button effect, and the big hit button effect, when the operation button BT is operated, vibration occurs. Even if the sensor SS detects vibration, the vibration detection frequency is not updated, so the error condition is not satisfied, and the vibration detection error is not notified. Further, when the result of the button notice effect, the result of the final button effect, or the result of the big hit button effect is derived, even if the vibration sensor SS detects the vibration when the operation button BT is operated, the vibration detection is performed. Since the number of times is not updated, the error condition is not satisfied and the vibration detection error is not notified.

  On the other hand, in the present embodiment, when the detection signal is input from the operation button BT and the vibration detection command is input during the operation valid period related to the standby button effect, the sub control CPU 41a updates the vibration detection count. That is, when the operation promotion effect is not executed like the standby button effect, when the vibration sensor SS detects the vibration when the operation button BT is operated, the number of vibration detections is updated, so that the error condition is satisfied. Therefore, a vibration detection error may be reported.

  In the present embodiment, when the vibration detection command is input within the button operation invalid period during execution of the effect that is executed by the operation of the operation button BT, whether the detection signal from the operation button BT is input or not. Instead, the sub control CPU 41a updates the number of times of vibration detection. That is, the operation button BT is operated when the effect executed by the operation of the operation button BT is not being executed (for example, the result of the button notice effect is being derived) but within the button operation invalid period. In this case, when the vibration sensor SS detects vibration, the number of times of vibration detection is updated, so that an error condition may be satisfied and a vibration detection error may be notified.

  In addition, in the present embodiment, there is a situation in which the upper movable body 80 is operating in a situation in which the number of vibration detections is not updated even when the sub-control CPU 41a inputs the vibration detection command. The situation in which the upper movable body 80 is operating is not limited to the situation in which the upper movable body 80 is moving to a position different from the origin, but is intended to be the situation in which the upper movable body 80 is not located at the origin. Is. In the present embodiment, even when the sub-control CPU 41a inputs the vibration detection command for the entire period from the start of the operation of the upper movable body 80 to the end of the operation of the upper movable body 80. The number of vibration detections is not updated. Therefore, while controlling the first effect actuator EA1 and operating the upper movable body 80, the sub-control CPU 41a does not update the number of times of vibration detection even when a vibration detection command is input. As described above, in the present embodiment, even if the vibration sensor SS detects vibration in the entire period after the operation of the upper movable body 80 is started, the error condition is not satisfied and the vibration detection error is notified. Not done. Incidentally, the situation where the number of vibration detections is not updated even when the sub-control CPU 41a inputs the vibration detection command is in the period from the start of the operation of the upper movable body 80 to the end of the operation of the upper movable body 80. It may be a part of the period. For example, the number of times of vibration detection may not be updated during the period from the start of the operation of the upper movable body 80 to the elapse of a predetermined time even when the sub-control CPU 41a inputs the vibration detection command. .

  Further, in the present embodiment, the internal movable body 90 is operating in a situation in which the vibration detection count is not updated even when the sub-control CPU 41a inputs the vibration detection command. The situation in which the internal movable body 90 is operating is not limited to the situation in which the internal movable body 90 is moving to a position different from the origin, but is intended to be the situation in which the internal movable body 90 is not located at the origin. Is. In the present embodiment, even when the sub-control CPU 41a inputs the vibration detection command during the entire period from the start of the operation of the internal movable body 90 to the end of the operation of the internal movable body 90. The number of vibration detections is not updated. Therefore, while controlling the second effect actuator EA2 to operate the internal movable body 90, the sub-control CPU 41a does not update the number of times of vibration detection even when a vibration detection command is input. As described above, in the present embodiment, even if the vibration sensor SS detects the vibration in the entire period after the operation of the internal movable body 90 starts, the error condition is not satisfied and the vibration detection error is notified. Not done. Incidentally, the situation in which the number of vibration detections is not updated even when the sub-control CPU 41a inputs the vibration detection command is that the period from when the operation of the internal movable body 90 is started to when the operation of the internal movable body 90 is ended It may be a part of the period. For example, the number of times of vibration detection may not be updated during the period from the start of the operation of the internal movable body 90 to the elapse of a predetermined time even when the sub-control CPU 41a inputs the vibration detection command. .

  Further, in the present embodiment, the operation button BT is operating in a situation in which the vibration detection count is not updated even when the sub-control CPU 41a inputs the vibration detection command. The situation in which the operation button BT is operating is not limited to the situation in which the operation button BT is moving to a position different from the origin, and is intended to mean the situation in which the operation button BT is not located at the origin. Therefore, the sub-control CPU 41a does not update the number of times of vibration detection even when a vibration detection command is input while operating the operation unit actuator SA to operate the operation button BT. As described above, in the present embodiment, even when the vibration sensor SS detects the vibration during the operation of the operation button BT, the error condition is not satisfied and the vibration detection error is not notified.

  In the present embodiment, the situation where the number of times of vibration detection is not updated when vibration is detected can be said to be “a situation where notification of a vibration detection error is not allowed” or “a situation where notification of a vibration detection error is limited”. . On the other hand, in the present embodiment, the situation in which the number of times of vibration detection is updated when vibration is detected is “a situation in which notification of a vibration detection error is allowed” or “a situation in which notification of a vibration detection error is not limited. Can also be said.

Here, based on FIG. 11, a mode in the case where vibration is detected during execution of the repeated hit button effect will be described.
As shown in FIG. 11, at the timing t11 when the continuous hit button effect is executed during execution of the super reach effect and the operation valid period related to the first continuous hit button effect is started, the effect display device 11 performs the continuous promotion effect. Execution starts. After that, at the timing t12 within the operation valid period related to the continuous hit button effect, when the vibration sensor SS detects vibration even though the operation button BT is not operated, a vibration detection signal is transmitted from the vibration sensor SS for main control over 200 ms. It is output to the CPU 40a. When the vibration detection signal input time exceeds 140 ms, the main control CPU 40a performs a security signal output process and a vibration detection command output process. As a result, the security signal is output and the vibration detection command is output. At this time, neither the filter state nor the operation button BT is operated, so the sub control CPU 41a updates the number of times of vibration detection when the vibration detection command is input. As a result, if the error condition is satisfied, the vibration detection error is notified.

  When the vibration sensor SS detects vibration when the operation button BT is operated at a timing t13 within the operation valid period related to the continuous hit button effect, a vibration detection signal is output from the vibration sensor SS to the main control CPU 40a for 200 ms. To be done. When the vibration detection signal input time exceeds 140 ms, the main control CPU 40a performs a security signal output process and a vibration detection command output process. Since the vibration sensor SS detects vibration when the operation button BT is operated within the operation valid period related to the continuous hit button effect, the sub control CPU 41a does not update the vibration detection frequency. Further, since the vibration sensor SS detects vibration when the operation button BT is operated within the operation valid period related to the repeated hit button effect, the filter state is set. At this time, the filter state is maintained for at least 500 ms from the base point based on the vibration detection at the timing t13. In addition, since the operation of the operation button BT at the timing t13 is the operation of the operation button BT within the operation valid period related to the continuous hit button effect, the attack effect is executed for 300 ms triggered by the operation of the operation button BT at the timing t13. It

  Furthermore, when the vibration sensor SS detects a vibration when the operation button BT is operated at a timing t14 prior to the end of the filter state triggered by the vibration detection by the vibration sensor SS at the timing t13, it takes 200 ms. A vibration detection signal is output from the vibration sensor SS to the main control CPU 40a. When the vibration detection signal input time exceeds 140 ms, the main control CPU 40a performs a security signal output process and a vibration detection command output process. Since the vibration sensor SS detects vibration when the operation button BT is operated within the operation valid period related to the continuous hit button effect, the sub control CPU 41a does not update the vibration detection frequency. Further, since it is in the filter state, the sub control CPU 41a does not update the number of times of vibration detection. Further, since the vibration sensor SS detects vibration when the operation button BT is operated within the operation valid period related to the repeated hit button effect, the filter state is set. At this time, although the filter is already in the filter state, the filter is in the filter state for at least 500 ms from the base point based on the detection of the vibration at the timing t14. Further, since the operation of the operation button BT at the timing t14 is the operation of the operation button BT within the operation valid period related to the continuous hit button effect, the attack effect is executed for 300 ms triggered by the operation of the operation button BT at the timing t14. It

  On the other hand, when the vibration sensor SS detects the vibration at the timing t15 before the filter state triggered by the detection of the vibration by the vibration sensor SS at the timing t13 is terminated, even though the operation button BT is not operated. , A vibration detection signal is output from the vibration sensor SS to the main control CPU 40a for 200 ms. When the vibration detection signal input time exceeds 140 ms, the main control CPU 40a performs a security signal output process and a vibration detection command output process. Because of the filter state, the sub-control CPU 41a does not update the number of times of vibration detection even when the vibration sensor SS detects vibration although the operation button BT is not operated. Further, although the operation is in the valid period for the continuous hit button effect, the vibration sensor SS detects the vibration even though the operation button BT is not operated, so that the filter state is not newly set.

  Further, when the vibration sensor SS does not detect vibration when the operation button BT is operated at a timing t16 150 ms before (immediately before) the end of the operation valid period related to the first repeated hit button effect, the vibration sensor SS is detected. No vibration detection signal is output from the device and the filter does not enter the state. However, since the operation of the operation button BT at the timing t16 is the operation of the operation button BT within the operation valid period of the continuous hit button effect, the attack effect is executed for 300 ms triggered by the operation of the operation button BT at the timing t16. It This attack effect is executed over the operation invalid period related to the continuous hit button effect.

  Further, after that, at a timing t17 within the operation invalid period related to the continuous hit button effect until the operation valid period related to the first continuous hit button effect ends and the operation valid period related to the second continuous hit button effect starts. It is assumed that the vibration sensor SS detects vibration when the operation button BT is operated. In this case, the vibration detection signal is output from the vibration sensor SS to the main control CPU 40a for 200 ms. When the vibration detection signal input time exceeds 140 ms, the main control CPU 40a performs a security signal output process and a vibration detection command output process. The vibration sensor SS vibrates when the operation button BT is operated within the operation invalid period related to the continuous hit button effect between the operation valid period related to the first continuous hit button effect and the operation valid period related to the second continuous hit button effect. Therefore, the sub control CPU 41a does not update the number of times of vibration detection. In addition, since the vibration sensor SS detects vibration when the operation button BT is operated within the operation invalid period related to the continuous hit button effect during the continuous hit button effect, the filter state is set. At this time, the filter state is maintained for at least 500 ms from the base point based on the vibration detection at the timing t17.

  At timing t17, the continuous hit promotion effect is executed. Therefore, even when the operation is ineffective for the continuous hit button effect, the vibration detection error is not notified even if the vibration is detected by the vibration sensor SS while the continuous hit promotion effect is being executed. As described above, in the present embodiment, when the operation unit is operated during the operation invalid period and the first effect is executed, the vibration detection error is not notified even if the vibration is detected by the vibration detection unit. . At timing t17, the attack effect is executed as described above. Therefore, even when the operation is ineffective for the continuous hit button effect, when the attack effect is being executed, the vibration detection error is not notified even if the vibration is detected by the vibration sensor SS. As described above, in the present embodiment, when the operation unit is operated during the operation invalid period and the second effect is being executed, the vibration detection error is not notified even if the vibration is detected by the vibration detection unit. .

According to this embodiment, the following effects can be obtained.
(1) Even during the operation invalid period related to the continuous hit button effect in which the attack effect (second effect) is not executed when the operation button BT as the operation means is operated, the continuous hit promotion effect (first effect) is generated. When it is being executed, the operation button BT is operated, and the operation may vibrate the gaming machine. Therefore, even if the operation is ineffective, the vibration detection error is not notified even when the vibration is detected by the vibration sensor SS (vibration detection means) while the continuous hit promotion effect is being executed. As a result, it is possible to prevent the interest from being lowered due to notification of a vibration detection error despite the operation of the operation button BT.

  (2) Even when the attack effect is being executed, the operation button BT is already activated even during the operation invalid period related to the continuous hit button effect in which the attack effect is not executed when the operation button BT as the operation means is operated. Although being operated, the operation button BT may be operated so as to continue the operation, and the operation may vibrate the gaming machine. Therefore, even when the operation is ineffective for the continuous hit button effect, when the attack effect (second effect) is being executed, a vibration detection error is generated even if the vibration is detected by the vibration sensor SS (vibration detection means). I decided not to be notified. As a result, it is possible to prevent the interest from being lowered due to notification of a vibration detection error despite the operation of the operation button BT.

  (3) When the operation promotion effect (first effect) is not executed in the operation invalid period in which the effect (second effect) is not executed when the operation button BT as the operation means is operated, and There is a case where the effect (for example, derivation of the result of the button notice effect) that is executed in response to the operation of the operation button BT is not executed. In such a case, when the operation sensor BT is operated and vibration is detected by the vibration sensor SS (vibration detection means), a vibration detection error may be notified. As described above, even when the operation button BT is operated and the vibration sensor SS detects the vibration, the vibration detection error is notified, so that the operation button BT is operated to cause vibration to the gaming machine. It is possible to suppress an act of giving a force or an act of strongly hitting the operation button BT.

  (4) In a situation where there are a plurality of operation valid periods, such as within a period (predetermined period) during which a continuous hit button effect is executed during execution of a special game (fluctuation game), regardless of the operation valid period It is conceivable that there is a player who continues to operate the operation button BT as the operation means. Therefore, from the start of the first operation effective period to the end of the last operation effective period within the period in which the continuous hit button effect is executed (from the start of the predetermined number of operation effective periods within the predetermined period to the predetermined number of times). Until the end of the operation valid period after the operation valid period), even if the vibration is detected by the vibration sensor SS, the vibration detection error is not notified. As a result, it is possible to prevent the interest from being lowered due to notification of a vibration detection error despite the operation of the operation button BT.

  (5) In a continuous hit button effect between a predetermined operation effective period and an operation effective period next to the predetermined operation effective period among a plurality of operation effective periods within a period (predetermined period) in which the continuous hit button effect is executed. The length of the operation invalid period is set shorter than the length of the specific period in which the filter state (specific state) is set from the base point based on the detection of vibration by the vibration sensor SS. Therefore, even when the vibration sensor SS detects vibration when the operation button BT is operated just before the end of the predetermined operation effective period, it is possible to supplement the operation ineffective period related to the continuous hit button effect with the filter state. it can. Therefore, for example, when the gaming machine continues to vibrate even during the operation invalid period related to the continuous hit button effect by operating the operation button BT immediately before the end of the operation valid period related to the continuous hit button effect, vibration detection is performed. It is possible to suppress the notification of the error, and it is possible to prevent the interest from being lowered due to the notification of the vibration detection error.

  (6) When the length of the specific period when the operation state and the operation invalid period related to the continuous button production are in the filter state (specific state) within the period (predetermined period) in which the continuous button production is executed It is necessary to determine the length of the specific period in the filter state after determining whether it is the operation valid period or the operation invalid period related to the continuous hit button effect. However, by making the length of the specific period in which the filter state is the same between the operation valid period and the operation invalid period related to the repeated hit button effect within the period in which the repeated hit button effect is executed, the processing for making the above determination is performed. The control load can be reduced, for example, it can be omitted.

  (7) When the operation promotion effect (first effect) is being executed, when the operation button BT as the operation means is operated and the vibration sensor SS detects vibration, the operation button BT is operated. Even if the vibration sensor SS detects the vibration, the filter state (specific state) is not notified even if the vibration detection error is not notified. Therefore, even when the gaming machine continues to vibrate by operating the operation button BT, even if the vibration sensor SS detects the vibration due to the filter state, the vibration detection error is not notified. Therefore, even if the user continues to vibrate by operating the operation button BT, it is possible to prevent the entertainment from being deteriorated by being notified of a vibration detection error despite operating the operation button BT. can do.

  (8) When the attack effect (second effect, specific effect) is being executed, when the operation button BT as the operation means is operated and the vibration sensor SS detects vibration, the operation button BT is Even if the vibration sensor SS detects a vibration even though the vibration sensor SS is not operated, the vibration detection error is not notified and the filter state (specific state) is set. Therefore, even if the gaming machine continues to vibrate by operating the operation button BT to execute the attack effect, even if the vibration sensor SS detects vibration by entering the filter state, vibration detection is performed. No error is reported. Therefore, even if the user continues to vibrate by operating the operation button BT, it is possible to prevent the entertainment from being deteriorated by being notified of a vibration detection error despite operating the operation button BT. can do.

  (9) When the time when the vibration detection signal is input exceeds the predetermined time, the control relating to the vibration detection (security signal output processing, vibration detection command output processing) is performed by the main control CPU 40a (control means). Further, even if the vibration sensor SS detects the vibration even though the operation button BT as the operation means is not operated, the length of the specific period during which the vibration detection error is not notified is the filter state (specific state) It is longer than the time when the vibration detection signal is output when the sensor SS detects the vibration. Therefore, even if the vibration detection signal is output immediately before entering the filter state, it remains in the filter state until the output of the vibration detection vibration ends, and the operation button BT vibrates even though the operation button BT is not operated. Even if the sensor SS detects a vibration, it is possible to prevent the vibration detection error from being notified, and it is possible to suppress a decrease in interest.

  Further, the predetermined time required to perform the control related to the vibration detection is shorter than the time when the vibration detection signal is output. For this reason, if the vibration detection signal is output, the output time of the vibration detection signal exceeds the predetermined time.Therefore, the vibration detection vibration should be configured so that the control related to the vibration detection is performed more reliably. You can

  (10) The time when the vibration detection signal is output when the vibration sensor SS detects the vibration during the operation valid period is the time when the vibration detection signal is output when the vibration sensor SS detects the vibration during the operation invalid period. It is the same. Therefore, it is not necessary to change the time when the vibration sensor SS outputs the vibration detection signal depending on whether it is the operation valid period or the operation invalid period, so that the load on the vibration sensor SS can be reduced.

  (11) If the vibration sensor SS detects vibration when the operation button BT as the operation means is operated during the operation valid period related to the continuous hit button effect and not in the filter state (specific state), the filter And the vibration detection error is not reported. As a result, a vibration detection error is notified due to the operation button BT being operated even though the operation button BT is in the operation effective period, and the operation button BT is operated during the operation effective period of the button operation. It is possible to suppress the intention of causing a vibration detection error even when the vibration continues even in the filter state by the operation. As a result, it is possible to prevent the interest from being lowered due to notification of a vibration detection error even though the operation button BT is operated.

  On the other hand, when the vibration sensor SS detects a vibration even when the operation button BT is not operated during the operation valid period related to the continuous hit button effect and not in the filter state, the game machine is hit or the like. It may be vibrating. For this reason, when the vibration sensor SS detects vibration even though the operation button BT is not operated during the operation valid period related to the repeated hit button effect and not in the filter state, the filter state is not established. By configuring so that the vibration detection error can be notified, it is possible to suppress the act of giving vibration to the game machine by hitting the game machine or the like.

  As described above, the vibration is given to the gaming machine by hitting the gaming machine while suppressing the deterioration of the interest due to the notification of the vibration detection error despite the operation of the operation button BT. You can suppress the act.

  (12) When the initialization condition is satisfied, the vibration detection frequency (detection frequency) is initialized. When the initialization condition is satisfied in this way, the number of vibration detections is initialized, so that the longer the game time is, the closer the number of vibration detections is to a predetermined number as compared to the case where the initialization is not performed, and the error condition is satisfied. It is possible to suppress falling into an easy situation.

  (13) If the notified vibration detection error ends when the initialization condition is satisfied while the vibration detection error is being notified, it seems as if the vibration detection error was notified by a malfunction. There is a risk that Therefore, even if the initialization condition is satisfied while the vibration detection error is being notified, by continuously notifying the vibration detection error, it seems as if the vibration detection error is notified by a malfunction. Can be suppressed.

  (14) When the operation promotion effect for prompting the operation of the operation button BT is being executed, it is assumed that the operation button BT is operated, and the operation may vibrate the gaming machine. Therefore, when the operation promoting effect is being executed, even if the vibration is detected by the vibration sensor SS, the vibration detection error is not notified. As a result, it is possible to prevent the interest from being lowered due to notification of a vibration detection error despite the operation of the operation button BT.

  (15) When the result of the button advance notice effect is derived or the result of the final button effect is derived, that the jackpot button is in effect, the effect executed when the operation button BT is operated is being executed. There are times when the results of production are derived. When the result of such a button notice effect is derived, the result of the final button effect is derived, or the result of the jackpot button effect is derived, the operation button BT has already been operated. However, there is a possibility that the game machine is vibrating due to the operation. Therefore, when the result of the button notice effect is derived, the result of the final button effect is derived, or the result of the jackpot button effect is derived, the vibration is detected by the vibration sensor SS. Even if it does, the vibration detection error is not notified. As a result, it is possible to prevent the interest from being lowered due to notification of a vibration detection error despite the operation of the operation button BT.

  (16) When the operation button BT operates, the gaming machine may vibrate with the operation, and the vibration sensor SS may detect the vibration. In addition, the force for operating the operated operation button BT may be larger than the force for operating the operation button BT that is not operating, and it is possible that the gaming machine vibrates due to the operation of the operation button BT. To be Therefore, when the second operation promotion effect is being executed, the operated operation button BT may be operated to vibrate the gaming machine. Therefore, when the second operation promotion effect is being executed, the vibration detection error is not notified even if the vibration is detected by the vibration sensor SS. As a result, it is possible to suppress a decrease in interest due to notification of a vibration detection error despite the operation of the operated operation button BT.

  Even after the second operation promotion effect is executed and the effect executed after the operation button BT is operated, the gaming machine is operated by operating the operated operation button BT. It may vibrate. Therefore, when the effect executed after the second operation promotion effect is executed and after the operation button BT is operated is executed, the vibration detection error is not notified even if the vibration is detected by the vibration sensor SS. I chose As a result, it is possible to suppress a decrease in interest due to notification of a vibration detection error despite the operation of the operated operation button BT.

  (17) If a vibration detection error is notified by the vibration caused by operating the operation button BT even though the operation promotion effect is executed and the operation of the operation button BT is prompted, the interest is significantly reduced. There is a risk that it will end up. Therefore, when the operation promoting effect is executed, the vibration detection error is not notified even if the vibration is detected by the vibration sensor SS. As a result, it is possible to prevent the entertainment from being deteriorated by notifying a vibration detection error due to the operation of the operation button BT even though the operation promotion effect is executed to prompt the operation of the operation button BT. can do.

  On the other hand, although there is a situation where the effect is executed by operating the operation button BT even if the operation promotion effect is not executed, the gaming machine vibrates under the situation where the operation of the operation button BT is not prompted. That is, as compared with the case where the gaming machine vibrates under the situation where the operation button BT is prompted to operate, the possibility that the operating button BT is operated and the gaming machine vibrates is low. Therefore, the vibration is detected by the vibration sensor SS even in a situation in which the effect is executed by operating the operation button BT even if the operation promotion effect is not executed (a situation in which the standby button effect can be executed). In this case, the error condition is satisfied, and the vibration detection error may be notified. As a result, if vibration is detected in a situation in which it is unlikely that the game machine is vibrating by operating the operation button BT, a vibration detection error may be notified, and therefore, the act of vibrating the game machine by striking it may be performed. Can be suppressed. As described above, it is possible to suppress the act of vibrating the game machine by hitting it, and at the same time, suppressing the loss of interest.

  (18) When the upper movable body 80 operates, the game machine may vibrate due to the operation. Particularly, in the pachinko gaming machine 10 in which the outer frame Y1 is fixed to the installation equipment, when the upper movable body 80 provided in the front frame Y3 operates, it is considered that the gaming machine is likely to vibrate due to the operation. Therefore, in the period after the operation of the upper movable body 80 is started, the vibration detection error is not notified even if the vibration is detected by the vibration sensor SS. In this way, in a situation where the gaming machine may be vibrating due to the operation of the upper movable body 80, even if the vibration is detected by the vibration sensor SS, the vibration detection error should not be notified. Thus, it is possible to prevent the interest from being lowered due to a notification of a vibration detection error even if the upper movable body 80 is operated.

  (19) When the internal movable body 90 operates, the operation may vibrate the gaming machine. Particularly, in the game board unit in which the vibration sensor SS is arranged on the back side, when the internal movable body 90 arranged on the front side of the game board unit operates, the vibration sensor SS may detect the vibration due to the operation. Can be considered. Therefore, in the period after the operation of the internal movable body 90 is started, even if the vibration is detected by the vibration sensor SS, the vibration detection error is not notified. In this way, under the situation where the game machine may be vibrating due to the operation of the internal movable body 90, even if the vibration is detected by the vibration sensor SS, the vibration detection error should not be notified. Thus, it is possible to prevent the interest from being lowered due to a notification of a vibration detection error even if the internal movable body 90 is operated.

  (20) In addition to the period after the upper movable body 80 and the inner movable body 90 have been operated, when the operation promotion effect for promoting the operation of the operation button BT is being executed or when the operation button BT is operated. Even when the effect to be executed is being executed, the vibration detection error is not notified even when the vibration sensor SS detects the vibration. Thus, while suppressing the vibration detection error from being notified by the vibration caused by the operation of the upper movable body 80 and the internal movable body 90, the vibration detection error is notified by the vibration caused by the operation of the operation button BT. It is possible to prevent the interest from being lowered.

  (21) Since the security signal is output in common whether the magnetism is detected or the vibration is detected, only the security signal is used to identify which of the magnetism and the vibration is detected. Is difficult. However, by notifying the vibration detection error, when the security signal is output, it is possible to specify that the output of the security signal is due to the detection of the vibration.

  (22) The vibration detection error is not notified unless the number of times of vibration detection reaches the predetermined number, or depending on the situation where the vibration is detected. As described above, since the vibration detection error is notified in consideration of the number of times the vibration is detected and the situation in which the vibration is detected, it is possible to prevent the interest of the player from being lowered by the notification of the vibration detection error. be able to. On the other hand, when the vibration sensor SS detects the vibration, the security signal is output regardless of the number of times the vibration sensor SS detects the vibration and the situation in which the vibration sensor SS detects the vibration. In other words, since the security signal is output without considering the number of times vibration is detected and the situation in which vibration is detected, for example, an administrator of a game arcade may illegally vibrate a game machine. Since it is possible to convey the possibility of being violated by a security signal, it is possible to suppress the discovery of an act that vibrates the game machine illegally. That is, it is possible to prevent the manager from overlooking the act of illegally vibrating the gaming machine while suppressing the player from deteriorating the interest.

  (23) Even if the vibration is detected by the vibration sensor SS as the vibration detecting means, the vibration detection error is not notified because the error condition is not satisfied. As described above, when the vibration detection error is not notified, the error condition is not satisfied even if the vibration sensor SS detects the vibration. Thereby, the control for determining whether the error condition is satisfied can be omitted, the control can be simplified, and the control load can be reduced. In particular, since the error condition is not satisfied by not updating the vibration detection frequency, the process of updating the vibration detection frequency can be omitted, or the vibration detection frequency can be reduced even if the vibration detection frequency reaches a predetermined number. There is also no need to perform processing for notifying the detection error.

(Second embodiment)
Next, a second embodiment of the gaming machine will be described. The same components as those in the first embodiment are designated by the same reference numerals as those in the first embodiment, and detailed description and drawings thereof are omitted.

  In the first embodiment, when the vibration detection error is not notified even when the vibration is detected by the vibration sensor SS, the error condition is not satisfied even if the vibration is detected by the vibration sensor SS. With this configuration, the vibration detection error is not notified. On the other hand, in the second embodiment, the error condition is satisfied when the vibration is detected by the vibration sensor SS so that the vibration detection error is not notified even when the vibration is detected by the vibration sensor SS. Configured to get. Then, in the second embodiment, when the vibration detection error is not notified even when the vibration sensor SS detects the vibration, the error condition is satisfied when the vibration sensor SS detects the vibration. Even in such a case, the vibration detection error is not notified so that the vibration detection error is not notified.

  In the second embodiment, the sub-control CPU 41a updates the vibration detection frequency even when the vibration detection frequency is not updated when the vibration detection command is input in the first embodiment. Then, after updating the number of times of vibration detection, the sub-control CPU 41a, even if the error condition is satisfied, that is, even if the number of times of vibration detection after updating has reached a predetermined number, in the first embodiment If the vibration detection count is not updated when is input, the vibration detection error notification process is not executed. On the other hand, after updating the number of times of vibration detection, the sub-control CPU 41a notifies the vibration detection error if the error condition is satisfied, or if the number of times of vibration detection is updated when the vibration detection command is input in the first embodiment. Execute the process. That is, in the second embodiment, the situation in which the vibration detection count is not updated when the vibration detection command is input in the first embodiment is a situation in which the vibration detection error is not notified even when the error condition is satisfied.

  In the second embodiment, when the vibration detection command is input when the detection signal from the operation button BT is not input in the filter state, the sub-control CPU 41a updates the vibration detection count, but the vibration detection after the update is performed. Even if the number of times reaches the predetermined number, the vibration detection error notification processing is not executed.

  In the present embodiment, when the vibration detection command is input when the detection signal from the operation button BT is input within the operation valid period related to the button notice effect, the sub-control CPU 41a updates the vibration detection count, but after the update. Even if the number of times the vibration is detected reaches a predetermined number, the notification processing of the vibration detection error is not executed. Further, when the vibration detection command is input while the result of the button advance notice effect is derived, the sub-control CPU 41a updates the vibration detection number, but the sub-control CPU 41a vibrates even if the updated vibration detection number reaches a predetermined number. Do not execute detection error notification processing.

  In addition, in the present embodiment, among the operation valid periods related to a plurality of continuous button productions within the period in which the continuous button production is executed, the first (first) operation valid period starts to the last (last) operation valid period ends. Until then, when the vibration detection command is input when the detection signal is input from the operation button BT, the sub-control CPU 41a updates the vibration detection count. On the other hand, the sub-control CPU 41a does not execute the vibration detection error notification process even if the updated vibration detection count reaches the predetermined count.

  Further, in the present embodiment, when the vibration detection command is input when the detection signal is input from the operation button BT within the operation valid period related to the final button effect, the sub control CPU 41a updates the number of times of vibration detection, Even if the number of vibration detections after the update reaches a predetermined number, the vibration detection error notification processing is not executed. Further, when the vibration detection command is input when the result of the final button effect is derived, the sub-control CPU 41a updates the vibration detection number, but the sub-control CPU 41a vibrates even if the updated vibration detection number reaches a predetermined number. Do not execute detection error notification processing. Further, in the present embodiment, when the vibration detection command is input when the detection signal from the operation button BT is input within the operation valid period related to the big hit button effect, the sub-control CPU 41a updates the number of vibration detections, Even if the number of vibration detections after the update reaches a predetermined number, the vibration detection error notification processing is not executed. Further, when the vibration detection command is input while the result of the big hit button effect is derived, the sub-control CPU 41a updates the number of times of vibration detection, but the sub-control CPU 41a vibrates even if the number of times of vibration detection after the update reaches a predetermined number. Do not execute detection error notification processing.

  In addition, in the present embodiment, when the vibration detection command is input while the first effect actuator EA1 is controlled to operate the upper movable body 80, the sub-control CPU 41a updates the vibration detection count, but after the update. Even if the number of times the vibration is detected reaches a predetermined number, the notification processing of the vibration detection error is not executed. Further, in the present embodiment, the sub-control CPU 41a updates the number of times of vibration detection even when the vibration detection command is input while the second effect actuator EA2 is controlled to operate the internal movable body 90. However, even if the number of vibration detections after the update reaches a predetermined number, the vibration detection error notification processing is not executed. Further, in the present embodiment, when the vibration detection command is input while the operation unit actuator SA is being operated to operate the operation button BT, the sub-control CPU 41a updates the vibration detection frequency, but the vibration after the update is detected. Even if the number of detections reaches the predetermined number, the vibration detection error notification process is not executed.

  In the present embodiment, although the vibration detection count is updated when vibration is detected, the situation in which the vibration detection error notification process is not executed even if the updated vibration detection count reaches a predetermined number is It can be said that it is “a situation where notification of a vibration detection error is not allowed” or “a situation where notification of a vibration detection error is restricted”. On the other hand, in the present embodiment, the situation in which the vibration detection number is updated when vibration is detected, and the vibration detection error notification process is executed even if the updated vibration detection number reaches the predetermined number, It can be said that “the situation where the notification of the vibration detection error is allowed” and “the situation where the notification of the vibration detection error is not limited”.

According to the second embodiment, the following effects can be obtained in addition to the effects (1) to (22) of the first embodiment.
(24) In a configuration in which the vibration detection error is not notified even when the vibration is detected by the vibration sensor SS as the vibration detection means, the error condition is satisfied when the vibration is detected by the vibration sensor SS. Even in such a case, the vibration detection error is not notified so that the vibration detection error is not notified. As a result, when the vibration sensor SS repeatedly detects vibration in a situation where the vibration detection error is not notified, the vibration detection frequency is updated although the vibration detection error is not notified. Then, when the condition in which the vibration detection error is not notified ends and the condition in which the vibration detection error can be notified is reached, and when the error condition is already satisfied, for example, a new predetermined number of vibrations are not detected. However, the vibration detection error is notified. That is, when vibration is improperly applied to the gaming machine in a situation where the vibration detection error is not notified, the vibration detection frequency is updated so that the error condition can be satisfied although the vibration detection error is not notified. Then, after the situation in which the vibration detection error is not notified is ended, the vibration detection error can be notified without waiting for the number of times of the vibration detection to reach the predetermined number. Thereby, it is possible to effectively suppress the vibration from being improperly applied to the gaming machine while suppressing a decrease in interest.

In addition, each embodiment may be modified as follows.
-Even if the vibration sensor SS detects vibration even though the operation button BT is not operated, it is during the operation valid period (for example, when the operation promotion effect is executed or the second effect or When the effect corresponding to the specific effect is being executed), the vibration detection error may not be notified. For example, a detection signal from the operation button BT from the start of the first operation valid period to the end of the final operation valid period of the operation valid periods related to the plurality of continuous button productions within the period in which the continuous button production is executed. Even if the vibration detection command is input despite not inputting, the sub-control CPU 41a may not update the number of times of vibration detection. That is, from the start of the operation valid period of the predetermined number of times within the predetermined period until the end of the operation valid period after the operation valid period of the predetermined number of times, even if vibration is detected by the vibration detection unit, an error The vibration detection error may not be notified because the condition is not satisfied.

  In the filter state, even when the vibration sensor SS detects the vibration even though the operation button BT is not operated, the filter state is maintained for a specific period from the base point triggered by the detection of the vibration. You may comprise so that it may become.

  When the operation button BT is operated when the effect (second effect or specific effect) executed by the operation of the operation button BT is being executed and the vibration sensor SS detects vibration, Even when the vibration sensor SS detects the vibration even though the operation button BT is not operated, the vibration detection error may not be notified and the filter state may be set. In this case, the game machine continues to vibrate by operating the operation button BT in order to execute the effect (for example, derivation of the result of the button advance notice effect) executed by the operation of the operation button BT. However, even if the vibration sensor SS detects vibration due to the filter state, the vibration detection error is not notified. Therefore, even if the user continues to vibrate by operating the operation button BT, it is possible to prevent the entertainment from being deteriorated by being notified of a vibration detection error despite operating the operation button BT. can do.

  The operation promoting effect may not be executed during the operation invalid period related to the continuous hit button effect. Further, during the operation invalid period related to the continuous hit button effect, the attack effect executed by the operation of the operation button BT may not be executed. For example, during the execution of the attack effect, the execution of the attack effect may be ended when the operation invalid period related to the continuous hit button effect is reached.

  When the operation button BT is operated during execution of the attack effect, the attack effect being executed is not stopped, and the attack effect being executed is continuously executed, and a new attack effect is executed. You may comprise. For example, when the attack effect is being executed and the detection signal from the operation button BT is input within the operation valid period related to the continuous hit button effect, the sub control CPU 41a causes a new attack in addition to the attack effect being executed. The effect display device 11 may be controlled so that the effect is executed. In addition, when the operation button BT is operated while the attack effect is being executed, the attack effect being executed may be continuously executed and a new attack effect may not be executed. In this case, during the execution of the attack production, it can be regarded as an operation invalid period.

  In the above-described embodiment, the operation means is operated when the operation means is operated during the operation ineffective period and the first effect is executed, and when the operation means is executed during the operation ineffective period and the second effect is executed. In both cases, the vibration detection error does not have to be notified even if the vibration is detected by the vibration detection means. For example, when the operation means is operated during the operation invalid period and the first effect is executed, and when the operation means is operated during the operation invalid period and the second effect is executed. On the other hand, even if the vibration is detected by the vibration detecting means, the vibration detection error may not be notified. In addition, in the above-described embodiment, when the operation means is operated during the operation ineffective period and the first effect is executed, and during the operation ineffective period and the second effect is executed, the operation means is performed. In both cases where is operated, the vibration detection error may be notified when the error condition is satisfied when the vibration is detected by the vibration detection means.

  -While the operation promotion effect is being executed, whether the operation button BT is operated or not, when the vibration sensor SS detects vibration, the error condition is not satisfied and the vibration is detected. The error may not be notified, or the vibration detection error may not be notified even if the error condition is satisfied. Similarly, the vibration sensor SS detects vibration when the effect executed by the operation of the operation button BT is being executed, whether the operation button BT is operated or not. In such a case, the vibration detection error may not be notified because the error condition is not satisfied, or the vibration detection error may not be notified even when the error condition is satisfied.

  When the vibration sensor SS detects vibration when the operation button BT is operated during the operation ineffective period and the operation promotion effect is being executed, an error condition may be satisfied and a vibration detection error may be notified. It may be configured as follows. That is, when the vibration sensor SS detects vibration when the operation button BT is operated during the operation ineffective period and the operation promotion effect is being executed, the vibration detection count is updated and the error condition is satisfied. In this case, the vibration detection error may be notified. That is, when the operation means is operated during the operation ineffective period and the first effect is being executed, even if the vibration is detected by the vibration detection means, the error condition is not satisfied and the vibration detection error is not notified. Need not be configured. Further, when the operation means is operated during the operation invalid period and the first effect is being executed, the vibration detection error is not notified even if the vibration is detected by the vibration detection means and the error condition is satisfied. Need not be configured.

  The vibration detection error may be notified when the vibration sensor SS detects the vibration even during the operation invalid period related to the continuous hit button effect. That is, when the vibration sensor SS detects vibration during the operation invalidation period related to the repeated hit button effect, the number of times of vibration detection is updated, and when the error condition is satisfied, a vibration detection error is notified. Good. At this time, the vibration detection error may not be notified when the operation button BT is operated, or the vibration detection error may be notified even if the operation button BT is operated. Good.

  The vibration sensor SS vibrates when the operation button BT is operated while the effect (for example, the result of the button notice effect) executed in response to the operation of the operation button BT during the operation invalid period is being executed. If detected, the error condition may be satisfied, and the vibration detection error may be notified. In other words, if the vibration sensor SS detects vibration when the operation button BT is operated during the effect that is executed when the operation button BT is operated during the operation invalid period, the number of times of vibration detection is The vibration detection error may be notified if the error is updated and the error condition is satisfied. That is, when the operation unit is operated during the operation invalid period and the second effect is being executed, the error condition is not satisfied and the vibration detection error is not notified even if the vibration is detected by the vibration detection unit. Need not be configured. Also, when the operation means is operated during the operation invalid period and the second effect is being executed, the vibration detection error is not notified even if the vibration is detected by the vibration detection means and the error condition is satisfied. It may be configured as follows.

  When the vibration sensor SS detects vibration when the operation button BT is operated, the vibration detection error is not satisfied regardless of whether the operation promotion effect is executed, even when the operation is ineffective. May be not notified, or the vibration detection error may not be notified even if an error condition is satisfied. Similarly, the vibration sensor SS vibrates when the operation button BT is operated, even during the operation invalid period, regardless of whether the effect executed when the operation button BT is operated is executed. When detected, the vibration detection error may not be notified because the error condition is not satisfied, or the vibration detection error may not be notified even if the error condition is satisfied. In this way, the operation means is operated during one or both of the operation invalid period and the first effect not executed and the operation invalid period and the second effect not executed. In this case, when the vibration is detected by the vibration detecting means, the vibration detection error may not be notified.

  The filter state may be set when the vibration sensor SS detects vibration when the operation button BT is operated during the operation effective period regardless of whether the operation promotion effect is being executed. Similarly, when the vibration sensor SS detects a vibration when the operation button BT is operated during the operation effective period, regardless of whether the effect executed when the operation button BT is operated is executed. , May be configured to be in a filter state. In this way, the operation means is operated during one or both of the operation valid period and the first effect is not executed, and the operation valid period and the second effect is not executed. In this case, when vibration is detected by the vibration detecting means, a specific state may be set.

  -Even if the operation promotion effect is being executed, even if the operation is ineffective, even if the vibration sensor SS detects vibration when the operation button BT is operated, the filter state may be set. Good. Similarly, the vibration sensor SS vibrates when the operation button BT is operated, even during the operation invalid period, regardless of whether the effect executed when the operation button BT is operated is executed. When it is detected, it may be configured to enter the filter state. In this way, the operation means is operated during one or both of the operation invalid period and the first effect not executed and the operation invalid period and the second effect not executed. In this case, when vibration is detected by the vibration detecting means, a specific state may be set.

  The length of the operation ineffective period (operation ineffective period within the predetermined period) related to the continuous hit button effect is the length of the specific period in which the filter state is controlled from the base point based on the detection of the vibration when the vibration detection unit detects the vibration. It may be the same as the length. Further, the length of the operation invalid period related to the repeated hit button effect may be shorter than the length of the specific period in which the vibration detection unit detects the vibration and controls the filter state from the base point based on the detection of the vibration.

  In the period (predetermined period) in which the continuous hit button effect is executed, the length of the specific period when the filter state (specific state) is set may be different between the operation valid period and the operation invalid period related to the continuous hit button effect. . For example, when vibration is detected in the operation valid period related to the continuous hit button effect, the specific period in the case where the vibration is used as a trigger causes the filter to be in a specific state when vibration is detected during the operation invalid period related to the continuous hit button effect. It may be longer than the specific period in the case where the filter state is triggered by the vibration. In addition, when vibration is detected during the operation valid period related to the repeated hit button effect, the specific period when the vibration is used as a filter state is concerned when vibration is detected during the operation invalid period related to the repeated hit button effect. It may be shorter than the specific period in the case where the filter state is triggered by vibration.

  The “predetermined time” from the start of the input of the vibration detection signal to the control of the main control CPU 40a regarding the vibration detection may be changed. For example, the “predetermined time” from the start of the input of the vibration detection signal to the control of the main control CPU 40a regarding the vibration detection is from the base point based on the detection of the vibration when the vibration detection unit detects the vibration. It may be longer than the length of the specific period controlled by the state. In addition, the “predetermined time” from the start of the input of the vibration detection signal to the control of the main control CPU 40a relating to the detection of the vibration is from the base point based on the detection of the vibration when the vibration detection means detects the vibration. It may be the same as the length of the specific period controlled by the state. Further, the “predetermined time” from the start of the input of the vibration detection signal to the control of the main control CPU 40a regarding the vibration detection is the time when the vibration detection signal is output when the vibration sensor SS detects the vibration. It may be the same.

  The time when the vibration detection signal is output when the vibration sensor SS detects vibration may be changed depending on the situation. That is, when the vibration sensor SS detects the vibration in the first situation, the vibration detection signal is output for a period of time when the vibration sensor SS detects the vibration in the second situation. It may be shorter (or longer) than the output time. For example, when the vibration sensor SS detects vibration during the operation valid period, the vibration detection signal is output when the vibration sensor SS detects vibration during the operation invalid period. It may be shorter (or longer) than the output time. In addition, the time when the vibration detection signal is output when the vibration sensor SS detects the vibration during the big hit game is the vibration detection signal when the vibration sensor SS detects the vibration during the special game execution. May be shorter (or longer) than the time when is output. In the case of the above configuration, the predetermined time from the start of the input of the vibration detection signal until the main control CPU 40a performs the control related to the detection of the vibration should be a time equal to or shorter than the minimum time when the vibration detection signal is output. Is preferred.

  When the vibration sensor detects vibration even though the operation button BT is not operated during the operation valid period related to the repeated hit button effect and not in the filter state, the filter state is set and the vibration detection error is not notified. You may comprise.

In the above embodiment, the filter state is set, but the filter state may not be set. That is, it may be a gaming machine having no filter state.
In the above embodiment, when the standby button effect is being executed among the effects that are executed when the operation button BT is operated, a vibration detection error may be notified when the vibration sensor SS detects vibration. As configured. For example, when the standby button effect is being executed, the vibration detection error may not be notified even when the vibration sensor SS detects vibration. That is, when a part of the second effects of a plurality of types of second effects is being executed, a vibration detection error can be notified when the vibration detection means detects vibration, but all the second effects are performed. When the vibration detecting means detects the vibration while the process is being executed, the vibration detecting error may not be notified. In addition, even when the operation button BT is operated and the vibration sensor SS detects vibration while the standby button effect is being executed, the vibration detection error may not be notified. That is, when the operation means is operated and the vibration detection means detects the vibration while all the second effects are executed, the vibration detection error may not be notified.

  -If the vibration sensor SS detects vibration when the operation button BT is operated within the effective operation period of the standby button effect, the filter state (specific state) may be set. Further, when the vibration sensor SS detects vibration when the operation button BT is operated during execution of the standby button effect, the filter state may be set.

  -Only one of the first operation promotion effect and the second operation promotion effect may be configured to be executable as the operation promotion effect. For example, when only the second operation promotion effect is executable as the operation promotion effect, the operation button BT may be operated when the operation promotion effect is executed. On the other hand, for example, when only the first operation promotion effect is configured to be executable as the operation promotion effect, the operation button BT may not be configured to be operable. Further, even when only the continuous hit promotion effect can be executed as the operation promotion effect, the operation button BT does not have to be operable.

  The image displayed on the effect display device 11 when the first operation promotion effect is executed may be either one of the image G1 and the image MG1, and one of the image G1 and the image MG1 may be displayed. Even when it is displayed, it can be said that it is an effect that prompts the user to operate the operation button BT. Similarly, the image displayed on the effect display device 11 when the second operation promotion effect is executed may be either one of the image G2 and the image MG1, and either one of the image G2 and the image MG1. Even when one is displayed, it can be said that it is an effect that prompts the operation of the operation button BT. Further, the image displayed on the effect display device 11 when the continuous hit promotion effect is executed may be either one of the image G1 and the image MG2, and one of the image G1 and the image MG2 is displayed. Even if it is performed, it can be said that it is an effect that prompts the user to operate the operation button BT. Further, when the first operation promotion effect is executed, the second operation promotion effect is executed, and the continuous hit promotion effect is executed, the operation button BT displayed on the effect display device 11 is operated. Part or all of the image prompting may be different.

  The operation button BT may be an operation unit having a light emitting body such as an LED. The configuration may be such that the light emitter of the operation button BT emits light in a situation where the effect is executed when the operation button BT is operated (for example, the operation valid period related to the continuous hit button effect). The light emitter of the operation button BT may be connected to the sub-control CPU 41a, and the light emission mode of the light emitter of the operation button BT may be controlled by the sub-control CPU 41a. Incidentally, when the continuous hit button effect is executed, the light emitting body of the operation button BT may be configured to emit light even during the operation invalid period related to the continuous hit button effect.

  The time required for the button advance notice effect, the time required for the final button effect, and the time required for the big hit button effect may be different according to the time from the execution of the operation promotion effect to the operation of the operation button BT. For example, when the operation button BT is operated within a short time after the execution of the operation promotion effect is started in the button advance notice effect, the operation button BT is operated within a short time after the execution of the operation promotion effect is started in the button advance notice effect. The time required for the button advance notice effect may be shortened as compared with the case where the button advance notification is not performed. Then, the update upper limit time may be longer than the longest time (maximum time) required for the button notice presentation. Further, the update upper limit time may be longer than the longest time required for the final button effect. The update upper limit time may be longer than the longest time required for the big hit button effect.

  The update upper limit time may be shorter than the maximum time (maximum time) required for one special game. In addition, the update upper limit time may be shorter than the time required for the button advance notice presentation (or the maximum time thereof). Further, the update upper limit time may be shorter than the time required for the final button effect (or the longest time thereof). Further, the update upper limit time may be shorter than the time required for the big hit button effect (or the maximum time thereof).

  As an effect that can be executed as an effect related to the operation of the operation button BT, all of the button notice effect, the continuous hit button effect, the final button effect, the big hit button effect, and the standby button effect need not be executable. For example, some effects may be configured to be executable, and other effects may be configured to be executable. In addition, the button advance notice effect is configured so that the jackpot expectation degree changes depending on the derived result, but for example, it is configured so that the expectation degree that the jackpot is controlled to a high probability state changes. Good. Further, the jackpot button effect is configured to be able to specify whether to be controlled to a high probability state by the derived result, but may be configured to be able to specify the number of round games in the jackpot game, for example. In this case, it is advisable to construct a big hit game in which the number of round games is different.

  In the above embodiment, a vibration detection error occurs even if vibration is detected by the vibration sensor SS from the start of the first operation effective period to the end of the last operation effective period within the period in which the repeated hit button effect is executed. Is not notified, but it is not necessary to be configured as such. For example, the vibration sensor SS vibrates from the start of the first operation effective period to the end of the last operation effective period within a part of the continuous operation effective period within the period in which the continuous hit button effect is executed. Even if is detected, the vibration detection error may not be notified. For example, even if the vibration sensor SS detects a vibration, a vibration detection error is notified from the start of the second operation effective period to the end of the third operation effective period within the period in which the continuous hit button effect is executed. It may be configured not to be performed. That is, the period in which the vibration detection error is not notified even if the vibration is detected by the vibration sensor SS within the predetermined period is not limited to the period from the start of the first operation effective period to the end of the last operation effective period, It may be a period from the start of the operation valid period of the predetermined number of times to the end of the operation valid period after the operation valid period of the predetermined number of times.

  -Even if the power supply to the pachinko gaming machine 10 is cut off, the number of times of vibration detection may be stored and held. Further, when the power supply to the pachinko gaming machine 10 is cut off, the number of times of vibration detection may be initialized. In this case, it can be said that the initialization condition for the number of times of vibration detection includes the initialization condition that is satisfied when the power supply is cut off. In addition, when the power supply is restarted after the power supply to the pachinko gaming machine 10 is cut off, the number of times of vibration detection may be initialized. In this case, it can be said that the initialization condition of the number of times of vibration detection includes an initialization condition that is satisfied when the power supply is restarted after the power supply is cut off. Further, the number of times of vibration detection in the above embodiment may be configured not to be initialized. For example, until the power supply is cut off, the vibration detection count may not be initialized even if the update upper limit time elapses.

  If the initialization condition is satisfied while the vibration detection error is being notified, the notification of the vibration detection error may be ended. Further, when the initialization condition is satisfied while the vibration detection error is being notified, the notification mode of the vibration detection error may be changed. When the initialization condition is satisfied while the vibration detection error is notified, for example, the size and shape of the second error image EG2 displayed on the effect display device 11, the display area in which the second error image EG2 is displayed, and the like. May be changed so that the notification mode of the vibration detection error is changed.

  The notification of the magnetic detection error may be prioritized over the notification of the vibration detection error. For example, when the magnetic detection command is input while the vibration detection error is being notified, the sub control CPU 41a may be configured to end the vibration detection error notification and execute the magnetic detection error notification processing. Good. The vibrations detected by the vibration sensor SS include illegal vibrations and vibrations that are not illegal such as vibrations when the operation button BT is operated. However, the magnetism detected by the magnetic sensor JS is highly likely to be the magnetism intentionally brought close to the game machine, and it is presumed that there is a high possibility that an illegal act is being performed. In consideration of such a situation, by giving priority to the notification of the magnetic detection error over the notification of the vibration detection error, it is possible to contribute to the prevention of fraud. When the magnetic sensor JS detects magnetism during the notification of the vibration detection error, the magnetic detection error may be notified in addition to the vibration detection error. The notification of the vibration detection error may be prioritized over the notification of the magnetic detection error.

  -The number of vibration sensors is not limited to one. For example, a plurality of vibration sensors may be provided. When providing a plurality of vibration sensors, some vibration sensors may be provided at a position different from the game board unit (for example, the back surface of the front frame Y3). When a plurality of vibration sensors are provided, even if the plurality of vibration sensors detect vibration, one may be added to the number of vibration detections when the number of vibration detections is updated. That is, for example, even when two vibration sensors detect vibration, 1 may be added to the number of times of vibration detection. Similarly, the number of magnetic sensors is not limited to one.

  -An electromagnetic induction sensor may be provided. A security signal may be output when electromagnetic induction is detected by the electromagnetic induction sensor. Further, when electromagnetic induction is detected, an electromagnetic induction detection error may be notified.

  A security signal output when vibration is detected by the vibration sensor SS and a security signal output when magnetism is detected by the magnetic sensor JS are configured to be output from separate connection terminals. May be. In this case, it is possible to specify whether vibration or magnetism is detected from the connection terminal that outputs the security signal.

  In the above-described embodiment, for example, when magnetism is detected by the magnetic sensor JS or when vibration is detected by the vibration sensor SS, that is, when a security signal is output, a predetermined light emitter in the pachinko gaming machine 10 It may be configured to blink. In this case, when the vibration is detected by the vibration sensor SS, the predetermined light emitting body blinks even if the vibration detection error is not notified. According to this, while making it difficult for the player to notice that vibration is detected, notifying the manager of the game hall that a security signal has been output, that is, vibration has been detected You can

  In the above-described embodiment, the effect display device 11 is used to notify the vibration detection error. However, for example, the effect display device 11 is used to notify the vibration detection error using at least one of the decoration lamp La and the speaker Sp. Good. For example, when the vibration detection error is notified using the decoration lamp La, the decoration lamp La may be configured to blink in red. In addition, for example, when a vibration detection error is notified using the speaker Sp, a predetermined sound (for example, a sound such as “vibration is detected”) may be output from the speaker Sp. Then, the vibration detection error may be configured to be notified by using one or more of the decoration lamp La, the speaker Sp, and the effect display device 11. Similarly, in the above embodiment, the effect display device 11 is used to notify the magnetic detection error. However, for example, at least one of the decoration lamp La and the speaker Sp is used to notify the magnetic detection error. You may. Then, the magnetic detection error may be configured to be notified by using one or more of the decoration lamp La, the speaker Sp, and the effect display device 11. That is, the device that functions as the error notification unit may be a device different from the effect display device 11, and may be composed of a plurality of devices.

  -It may be configured to include only one of the upper movable body 80 and the inner movable body 90. Further, both the upper movable body 80 and the inner movable body 90 may not be provided. Further, the operation button BT may not be configured to be operable.

  The number of operation buttons BT as the operation means does not have to be one, and a plurality of operation buttons may be provided. For example, an operable operation button and an inoperable operation button may be provided. For example, when the first operation button and the second operation button are provided, as the operation promotion effect, an operation promotion effect that prompts the operation of the first operation button and an operation promotion effect that prompts the operation of the second operation button are executed. It may be configured as possible. Then, when the operation promotion effect for promoting the operation of the first operation button is executed (for example, when the operation promotion effect for promoting the operation of the first operation button is executed during the operation invalid period, the first operation button May be configured such that when the vibration is detected by the vibration sensor SS, the error condition is satisfied and the vibration detection error can be notified. On the other hand, the vibration detection error may not be notified when the vibration is detected by the vibration sensor SS when the operation promotion effect for urging the operation of the first operation button is being executed. In addition, when the second operation button is operated when the operation promotion effect that prompts the operation of the first operation button is executed, the effect that is executed when the operation button is operated is configured to be executed. You may. When configured in this way, when the first operation button is operated and when the second operation button is operated, the effect contents of the effect executed when the operation button is operated (for example, The selection mode (selection rate and effect contents that can be selected) of the derived result type) may be different. For example, when an operation promoting effect that prompts the user to operate the first operation button is executed, when the second operation button is operated, when a big hit occurs compared to when the first operation button is operated, It is also possible to increase (or decrease) the rate at which effects that are only executed and have a low probability of being executed even in the case of a big hit (so-called premium effects) are executed. In addition, when the second operation button is operated when the operation promotion effect that prompts the operation of the first operation button is executed, the effect that is executed when the operation button is operated is configured not to be executed. May be.

  The predetermined number of times may be two or more, or may be one. For example, when the predetermined number of times is set to one, the number of times of vibration detection need not be configured to be countable. When the predetermined number of times is set to one, it can be considered that the error condition is satisfied by inputting the vibration detection command by the sub control CPU 41a. That is, the error condition does not have to be satisfied by the number of times the vibration is detected.

  ・ As a pachinko gaming machine that can be controlled to a high probability state, specifications that control it to a high probability state until the next big hit game is given, and specifications that control a high probability state until you win the falling lottery (falling machine), in advance. There is a specification (ST machine) that controls to a high-probability state until the predetermined number of special games are finished. In addition, a pachinko gaming machine that can be controlled to a high probability state has a specification (V probability variation machine) that controls to a high probability state when a game ball passes through a specific area. The above embodiment may be embodied in a pachinko game machine having any of these specifications. In addition, the pachinko gaming machine may be a pachinko gaming machine having a specification in which the above-described falling machine and V confirmation machine are mixed. In addition, the V certainty variation machine has a single big winning opening and has a specification that causes a specific round game in which the passage of a game ball to a specific area is allowed. In addition, the V certainty variation machine has a plurality of special winning openings including a special winning opening (V winning opening) opened in a specific round game and a large winning opening opened in a round game other than the specific round game. There are specifications that cause round games. Each of the embodiments may be embodied in a V-variable variable machine having any specification. Further, in the V certainty variation machine, during a specific round game, vibration is generated by the vibration sensor SS even when the operation promotion effect is being executed or when the operation is being triggered by the operation of the operation button BT. If detected, a vibration detection error may be notified. In this way, in a situation in which the game ball may be vibrated to cause the game ball to pass through the specific area, a vibration detection error may be notified when the vibration sensor SS detects the vibration. You may comprise. In addition, when a specific round game is not played, the operation promotion effect is configured to be executed, or the effect executed by the operation of the operation button BT is configured to be executed. Good. For example, when the above embodiment is a V-probability machine, the jackpot button effect may be configured to be executed in a round game after a specific round game. In the V certainty variation machine, since a high probability state is controlled when a game ball passes through a specific area in a specific round game, it is controlled to a high probability state if it is a round game after the specific round game. It is possible to execute the big hit button effect after it is determined that the high probability state is not controlled. In other words, it is possible to prevent the result derived by the big hit button effect and the actual result (whether or not to be controlled in the high probability state) from being inconsistent and giving an unpleasant feeling.

  The above embodiment may be applied to the slot machine. In the slot machine, the number of bets can be set by operating a MAXBET or inserting a medal. In the slot machine, when the start lever is operated after setting the bet number, a plurality of reels rotate. In the slot machine, when the stop button is operated after the plurality of reels have rotated, the rotation of the corresponding reels stops. Then, in the slot machine, when the rotation of all reels is stopped, a prize is awarded according to the stopped symbol combination.

  The above embodiment may be applied to a pachinko gaming machine that performs a small hit lottery, in addition to a big hit lottery. Generally, when a small hit is won in the small hit lottery, a small hit game is awarded after the end of the special game.

  -It may be applied to a gaming machine capable of simultaneously executing the first special game and the second special game. For example, the first special game may be configured to be executable when the big hit game is not occurring regardless of whether the second special game is being executed. Further, for example, the second special game may be configured to be executable regardless of whether or not the first special game is being executed when the jackpot game is not occurring. In such a gaming machine capable of simultaneously executing the first special game and the second special game, the number of times the small hit game is awarded per unit time is increased, and the small hit lottery or the small hit game is used. The advantageous state (for example, small hit RUSH) may be configured to occur. For example, the advantageous state using the small hit lottery or the small hit game may be an advantageous state as compared with the high base state. Then, in the advantageous state that is advantageous as compared with the high base state as described above, the vibration detection error may not be notified when the vibration is detected by the vibration sensor SS.
