(Basic explanation)
First, the basic configuration and control of the pachinko game machine 1 (also the configuration and control of a general pachinko game machine) will be described.

(Structure of pachinko machine 1, etc.)
FIG. 1 is a front view of the pachinko game machine 1, showing the arrangement layout of the main members. A pachinko game machine (game machine) 1 is roughly composed of a game board (gauge board) 2 forming a game board surface and a game machine frame (underframe) 3 supporting and fixing the game board 2 . A game area is formed in the game board 2, and a game ball as a game medium is shot from a predetermined ball shooting device and hit into the game area.

The "variable display" of special symbols means, for example, that a plurality of types of special symbols are variably displayed (the same applies to other symbols described later). Variations include updating display of a plurality of patterns, scrolling display of a plurality of patterns, deformation of one or more patterns, enlargement/reduction of one or more patterns, and the like. In the variation of special symbols and normal symbols, which will be described later, a plurality of types of special symbols or normal symbols are updated and displayed. In the variation of decorative patterns, which will be described later, a plurality of types of decorative patterns are scrolled or updated, and one or more decorative patterns are deformed or enlarged/reduced. Note that the variation also includes a mode in which a certain symbol is displayed blinking. At the end of the variable display, a predetermined special symbol is stopped and displayed (also referred to as derivation or derivation display) as a display result (the same applies to variable display of other symbols to be described later). Variable display may be expressed as variable display or variation.

The special symbols variably displayed on the first special symbol display device 4A are also called "first special symbols", and the special symbols variably displayed on the second special symbol display device 4B are also called "second special symbols". Also, a special game using the first special game is called a "first special game", and a special game using the second special game is called a "second special game". In addition, the number of special symbol display devices that variably display the special symbols may be one.

An image display device 5 is provided near the center of the game area on the game board 2 . The image display device 5 is composed of, for example, an LCD (liquid crystal display) or an organic EL (Electro Luminescence), and displays various effects images.

For example, on the screen of the image display device 5, in synchronism with the first special game and the second special game, a plurality of types of decorative patterns (such as patterns showing numbers) as decoration identification information different from the special patterns. variable display is performed. Here, in synchronism with the first special game or the second special game, decorative symbols are variably displayed (for example, vertically direction scroll display and update display). It should be noted that the variable display of the special game and the decoration pattern that are executed in synchronization are also collectively referred to simply as the variable display.

A display area may be provided on the screen of the image display device 5 for displaying suspended display corresponding to the variable display whose execution is suspended and active display corresponding to the variable display being executed. Suspended display and active display are also collectively referred to as variable display corresponding display corresponding to variable display.

The number of variable representations that are reserved is also referred to as the number of reserved memories. The reserved memory number corresponding to the first special game is also referred to as the first reserved memory number, and the reserved memory number corresponding to the second special game is also referred to as the second reserved memory number. The sum of the first reserved memory number and the second reserved memory number is also referred to as the total reserved memory number.

At predetermined positions on the game board 2, a first suspension indicator 25A and a second suspension indicator 25B each including a plurality of LEDs are provided. The first pending display 25A displays the first pending memory number by the number of lit LEDs.

When a game ball enters the first start winning hole, a predetermined number (for example, three) of prize balls are paid out, and the first special game can be started.

The variable winning ball device 6B (ordinary electric accessory) forms a second starting winning hole that changes between a closed state and an open state by a solenoid 81 (see FIG. 3). The variable winning ball device 6B is provided with, for example, an electric tulip-shaped accessory having a pair of movable winglets. comes close to the winning ball device 6A, and the closed state in which the game balls do not enter the second starting winning opening (also referred to as the second starting winning opening being closed). On the other hand, the variable winning ball device 6B is in an open state in which the game ball can enter the second start winning opening (second start It is also said that the prize-winning mouth is open.). When the game ball enters the second start winning hole, a predetermined number (for example, three) of prize balls are paid out, and the second special game can be started. Note that the variable winning ball device 6B may be any device that changes between a closed state and an open state, and is not limited to a device provided with an electric tulip-shaped accessory.

Predetermined positions of the game board 2 (in the example shown in FIG. 1, three positions on the lower left side of the game area and one position above the variable winning ball device 6B) are always kept in a constant open state by predetermined ball receiving members. A general winning opening 10 is provided. In this case, when the player enters one of the general winning openings 10, a predetermined number (for example, 10) of game balls are paid out as prize balls.

A special variable winning ball device 7 having a large winning opening is provided between the winning ball device 6A and the variable winning ball device 6B. The special variable winning ball device 7 has a large winning opening door that is driven to open and close by a solenoid 82 (see FIG. 3). Form.

As an example, in the special variable winning ball device 7, when the solenoid 82 for the big winning door (for the special electric accessory) is in the OFF state, the big winning door closes the big winning door, and the game ball is pushed out. You will not be able to enter (pass through) the prize gate. On the other hand, in the special variable prize winning ball device 7, when the solenoid 82 for the special prize winning port door is in the ON state, the special prize winning port door opens the big prize winning port, making it easier for the game ball to enter the big prize winning port. Become.

When game balls enter the big winning hole, a predetermined number (for example, 14) of game balls are paid out as prize balls. When the game balls enter the big winning hole, more prize balls are paid out than when the game balls enter the first starting winning hole, the second starting winning hole and the general winning hole 10, for example.

Entering a game ball into each winning hole including the general winning hole 10 is also called "winning". In particular, winning a prize in a starting opening (first starting winning opening, second starting winning opening) is also referred to as starting winning.

A normal symbol display 20 is provided at a predetermined position of the game board 2 (in the example shown in FIG. 1, the left lower part of the game area). As an example, the normal symbol display device 20 is composed of a 7-segment LED or the like, and performs variable display of normal symbols as a plurality of types of normal identification information different from special symbols. The normal symbols are represented by numbers indicating "0" to "9", lighting patterns such as "-", and the like. The normal pattern may include a pattern in which all the LEDs are turned off. Such a variable display of normal patterns is also called a normal pattern game.

A passage gate 41 through which game balls can pass is provided on the right side of the image display device 5 . Based on the game ball passing through the passage gate 41, the normal game is executed.

Below the normal pattern display 20, a normal pattern holding display 25C is provided.

(Overview of Game Progress)
A game ball is shot toward a game area by a player's rotating operation of a ball-hitting operation handle 30 provided in the pachinko game machine 1 . When the game ball passes through the passage gate 41, the normal pattern display device 20 starts the normal pattern game. In addition, when the game ball passes through the passage gate 41 during the period during the execution of the previous normal game (when the game ball passes through the passage gate 41 but the normal game based on the passage cannot be executed immediately) , the normal game based on the passage is suspended up to a predetermined upper limit number (for example, 4).

In this normal pattern game, if a specific normal pattern (normal pattern per pattern) is stopped and displayed, the display result of the normal pattern becomes "normal pattern per pattern". On the other hand, if a normal pattern (normal pattern lost pattern) other than the normal pattern winning pattern is stop-displayed as the fixed normal pattern, the display result of the normal pattern becomes "normal pattern lost". When it comes to "normal game", the variable winning ball device 6B is opened for a predetermined period of time and the opening control is performed (the second start winning opening is opened).

When a game ball enters the first starting winning hole formed in the winning ball device 6A, the first special symbol game by the first special symbol display device 4A is started.

When the game ball enters the second starting winning hole formed in the variable winning ball device 6B, the second special symbol game by the second special symbol display device 4B is started.

In addition, when the game ball enters (wins) the start winning opening during the period during which the special game is running or during the period when it is controlled to the jackpot game state described later (starting winning occurs, but it is based on the starting winning If the special game cannot be executed immediately), the execution of the special game based on the entry is suspended up to a predetermined upper limit number (for example, 4).

In the special symbol game, if a specific special symbol (a big hit symbol, for example, "7", the actual symbol differs depending on the type of the big hit described below) is stopped and displayed as a fixed special symbol, it becomes a "big win" and a big winning symbol. If a special symbol (losing symbol, for example, "-") is stopped and displayed, it becomes "missing". Incidentally, the "loss" in the pachinko game machine 1 includes a "time-saving loss" that is controlled from the next variable display to a high base state (time-saving state) without going through the big win game.

After the display result in the special game becomes "big win", the game is controlled to a big win game state as an advantageous state for the player.

In the jackpot game state, the jackpot formed by the special variable winning ball device 7 is opened in a predetermined manner. The open state is the timing of the elapse of a predetermined period (for example, 29 seconds or 1.8 seconds) and the timing until the number of game balls entering the big winning opening reaches a predetermined number (for example, 9). It will continue until whichever comes first. The predetermined period is an upper limit period during which the big winning slot can be opened in one round, and is hereinafter also referred to as an upper limit opening period. One cycle in which the big winning opening is opened in this way is called a round (round game). In the jackpot game state, the round can be repeatedly executed until it reaches a predetermined upper limit number of times (15 times or 2 times).

In the jackpot game state, the player can get a prize ball by entering the game ball into the big winning hole. Therefore, the jackpot gaming state is an advantageous state for the player. The larger the number of rounds in the jackpot game state and the longer the upper limit period of opening, the more advantageous the player is.

In addition, a jackpot type is set in the "jackpot". For example, multiple types of opening modes (number of rounds and upper limit period of opening) of the big winning opening and game states after the jackpot game state (normal state, time saving state, variable probability state, etc.) are prepared, and the jackpot type is set according to these It is As the jackpot types, there may be provided a jackpot type with which many prize balls can be obtained, a jackpot type with few prize balls, or a jackpot type with which few prize balls can be obtained.

After the jackpot game state is finished, depending on the jackpot type, it may be controlled to a time-saving state or a variable probability state.

In the time saving state, the control (time saving control) that shortens the average special figure fluctuation time (period of varying the special figure) than the normal state is executed. In the time-saving state, by shortening the average normal figure fluctuation time (the period during which the normal figure is changed) than in the normal state, and by improving the probability of becoming a "normal figure hit" in the general figure game than in the normal state, etc. Control (high opening control, high base control) that makes it easier for game balls to enter the second start winning opening is also executed. Since the time-saving state is a state in which the variation efficiency of the special symbols (especially the second special symbols) is improved, it is an advantageous state for the player.

In the variable probability state (probability variable state), in addition to the time-saving control, the variable probability control in which the probability that the display result is a "jackpot" is higher than in the normal state is executed. The variable probability state is a state in which the variation efficiency of the special symbols is improved, and in addition, a "big hit" is likely to occur, so it is a further advantageous state for the player.

The time saving state and the variable probability state are continued until one of the end conditions such as execution of the special game for a predetermined number of times and start of the next big win game state is established first. The end condition that the special figure game of a predetermined number of times has been executed is also referred to as a number cut (number cut time reduction, number cut probability variable, etc.).

The normal state means a game state other than a special state such as an advantageous state such as a jackpot game state that is advantageous to the player, a time saving state, a variable probability state, etc., and the display result in the normal game is "normal game". The pachinko gaming machine 1, such as the probability and the probability that the display result in the special game will be a "jackpot", returns to the initial setting state of the pachinko gaming machine 1 (for example, a predetermined return after power-on, such as when the system is reset) It is the state controlled in the same way as when processing is not executed).

The state in which probability variable control is executed is also called a high probability state, and the state in which probability variable control is not executed is also called a low probability state. A state in which time-saving control is performed is also referred to as a high-based state, and a state in which time-saving control is not performed is also referred to as a low-based state. Combining these, the short-time state is also called a low-probability-high base state, the probability-variable state is a high-probability-high base state, and the normal state is a low-probability-low base state. The high probability state and the low base state are also referred to as the high probability low base state.

In addition, the game state may change based on the fact that the game ball has passed through a specific area (for example, a specific area within the big winning opening) during the jackpot game state. For example, when the game ball passes through the specific area, it may be controlled to the probability variable state after the big hit game state.

(Progress of production, etc.)
In the pachinko gaming machine 1, various effects (effects such as notifying the progress of the game and exciting the game) are executed according to the progress of the game. The production will be described below. The effect is performed by displaying various effect images on the image display device 5. In addition to or instead of the display, sound output from the speakers 8L and 8R and the game effect lamp 9 are provided. lighting or extinguishing, the operation of the mounting movable body 32, or a performance using any performance device including a part or all of these.

As an effect executed according to the progress of the game, in the “left”, “middle”, and “right” decorative pattern display areas 5L, 5C, 5R provided on the image display device 5, the first special game or the second In response to the start of the 2 special figure game, the variable display of the decoration pattern is started. At the timing when the display result (also called fixed special pattern) is stopped and displayed in the first special game or the second special game, a fixed decorative pattern (combination of three decorative patterns), which is the display result of variable display of decorative patterns, is displayed. ) is also stopped (derived).

During the period from the start of the variable display of the decorative design to the end of the variable display, the variable display of the decorative design may be in a predetermined ready-to-win state (ready-to-win state is established). Here, the ready-to-win mode means that when the decorative symbols stopped and displayed on the screen of the image display device 5 constitute a part of the jackpot combination described later, the decorative symbols that are not stopped and displayed are displayed in a variable manner. It is the aspect that is continuing.

Further, a ready-to-win effect is executed in response to the above-described ready-to-win mode during the variable display of decorative symbols. In the pachinko gaming machine 1, the ratio of the display result (the display result of the special game or the display result of the variable display of the decoration pattern) to the "big win" (also called the "big win reliability" or "big win expectation") depends on the performance mode. A plurality of different types of ready-to-win effects are executed. The ready-to-win performance includes, for example, a normal reach and a super-to-win with higher reliability than the normal reach.

When the display result of the special game is a "big hit", a fixed decorative pattern that is a predetermined big hit combination is derived as a display result of the variable display of decorative patterns on the screen of the image display device 5 (decoration The display result of the variable display of the pattern becomes a "jackpot"). As an example, the same decoration patterns (for example, "7" etc.) are stop-displayed together on predetermined effective lines in the "left", "middle" and "right" decoration pattern display areas 5L, 5C and 5R. .

In the case of a ``variable probability big hit'' controlled to a variable probability state after the end of the big win game state, odd decorative patterns (for example, "7" etc.) are stopped and displayed together, and the variable probability state is entered after the end of the big win game state. In the case of an uncontrolled "non-probability variable jackpot (normal jackpot)", even-numbered decorative symbols (for example, "6") may be stopped and displayed together. In this case, odd-numbered decorative patterns are also called probability variable patterns and even-numbered decorative patterns are also called non-probable variable patterns (normal patterns). After becoming a ready-to-win mode with non-probability variation symbols, a promotion performance may be executed to finally become a "probability variation big hit".

When the display result of the special game is "lost", the variable display mode of the decorative pattern does not become the ready-to-win mode, and the fixed decorative pattern of the non-reach combination (" (Also referred to as non-reach lost") may be stopped (the display result of the variable display of the decorative pattern becomes "non-reach lost"). In addition, when the display result is "lost", after the mode of variable display of decorative patterns becomes the ready-to-win mode, the display result of variable display of decorative patterns is a predetermined ready-to-win combination ("no reach") that is not a big hit combination. ”) is stopped and displayed (the display result of the variable display of the decorative pattern becomes “reach lost”).

The effects that can be executed by the pachinko gaming machine 1 include displaying the variable display corresponding display (suspended display and active display). In addition, as other effects, for example, a notice effect for notifying the reliability of the big hit is executed during the variable display of the decorative symbols. The notice effect includes a notice effect for notifying the reliability of the big win in the variable display during execution and a pre-reading notice effect for notifying the reliability of the big win in the variable display before execution (variable display whose execution is suspended). As the pre-reading advance notice effect, an effect of changing the display mode of the display corresponding to variable display (suspended display or active display) to a mode different from normal may be executed.

Also, in the image display device 5, the decorative patterns are temporarily stopped during the variable display of the decorative patterns, and then the variable display is restarted, so that one variable display is simulated as a plurality of variable displays. A pseudo continuous effect may be executed.

During the big winning game state, the performance during the big winning is executed to report the big winning game state. As the effect during the big win, the effect of notifying the number of rounds or the promotion effect indicating that the value of the big win game state is improved may be executed.

Further, for example, when a special game or the like is not being executed, a demonstration (demonstration) image is displayed on the image display device 5 (customer waiting demonstration effect is executed).

(Substrate configuration)
The pachinko game machine 1 is equipped with a main board 11, an effect control board 12, a sound control board 13, a lamp control board 14, a relay board 15, etc., as shown in FIG. In addition, various substrates such as a payout control substrate, an information terminal substrate, and a launch control substrate are arranged on the back surface of the pachinko gaming machine 1 . Furthermore, a power supply board 17 is also mounted. Various control boards are not only electronic circuit boards such as printed wiring boards on which conductive patterns are formed and on which electrical components can be mounted, but are also configured to implement specific electrical functions by mounting electrical components on electronic circuit boards. It is a concept that includes an electronic circuit mounting board that has been manufactured.

A power switch 91 is connected to the power supply board 17 , and by operating the power switch 91 (turning it on), power from an alternating current power supply such as AC 100 V in an external power supply such as a commercial power supply is switched to the power supply board 17 . It can be supplied to electrical parts including various control boards such as the main board 11 and the effect control board 12. The power supply board 17 includes, for example, a rectifier circuit for converting alternating current (AC) into direct current (DC), a power circuit for converting a predetermined DC voltage into a specific DC voltage (eg, 12 V DC or 5 V DC), and the like. I have.

The main board 11 is a control board on the main side, and the progress of the above-mentioned games in the pachinko gaming machine 1 (execution of a special game (including management of suspension), execution of a general-purpose game (including management of suspension), jackpot game state, game state, etc.). The main board 11 has a game control microcomputer 100, a switch circuit 110, a solenoid circuit 111, and the like.

The game control microcomputer 100 mounted on the main board 11 is, for example, a one-chip microcomputer, and includes a ROM (Read Only Memory) 101, a RAM (Random Access Memory) 102, and a CPU (Central Processing Unit) 103. , a random number circuit 104 and an I/O (Input/Output port) 105 .

The CPU 103 executes a program stored in the ROM 101 to perform processing for controlling the progress of the game (processing for realizing the functions of the main substrate 11). At this time, various data stored in the ROM 101 (variation patterns described later, effect control commands described later, data such as various tables referred to when making various decisions described later) are used, and the RAM 102 is used as the main memory. . The RAM 102 is a backup RAM that retains stored contents for a predetermined period of time even if the power supply to the pachinko game machine 1 is stopped in part or in its entirety. All or part of the program stored in the ROM 101 may be developed in the RAM 102 and executed on the RAM 102 .

The random number circuit 104 counts updatably numerical data representing various random numbers (game random numbers) used to control the progress of the game. The game random numbers may be updated (updated by software) when the CPU 103 executes a predetermined computer program.

The I/O 105 includes, for example, an input port to which various signals (detection signals to be described later) are input, various signals (first special symbol display device 4A, second special symbol display device 4B, normal symbol display device 20, first reservation It includes an output port for transmitting a signal for controlling (driving) the indicator 25A, the second hold indicator 25B, the normal figure hold indicator 25C, and a solenoid drive signal).

The switch circuit 110 receives detection signals from various switches for game ball detection (gate switch 21, starter switch (first starter switch 22A and second starter switch 22B), count switch 23) (when a game ball passes or A detection signal indicating that the switch has been turned on by entering) is captured and transmitted to the game control microcomputer 100. The transmission of the detection signal means that the passage or entry of the game ball has been detected.

The switch circuit 110 takes in a reset signal, a power-off signal, and a clear signal from the power board 17 and transmits them to the game control microcomputer 100 . The reset signal is an operation stop signal for stopping the operation of the control circuit such as the game control microcomputer 100, and can be output using either the power supply monitoring circuit, the IC with built-in watchdog timer, or the system reset IC. I wish I had. The power-off signal turns off when a predetermined power supply voltage used in the pachinko game machine 1 exceeds a predetermined value, and turns on when the period in which the predetermined power supply voltage is equal to or less than the predetermined value continues for a power-off reference time or longer. Become. The clear signal is turned on, for example, when a clear switch 92 provided on the power supply board 17 is pressed.

The effect control command output from the main board 11 is relayed by the relay board 15 and supplied to the effect control board 12. - 特許庁The effect control command includes, for example, various determination results on the main board 11 (for example, the display result of the special game (including the jackpot type), the variation pattern used when executing the special game (details will be described later). )), game status (for example, start and end of variable display, opening status of big winning slots, occurrence of winning, number of reserved memories, game status), commands specifying error occurrence, and the like.

The effect control board 12 is a sub-side control board independent of the main board 11, receives the effect control command, and produces effects based on the received effect control command (various effects according to the progress of the game, (including various notifications such as driving of the mounted movable body 32, error notification, power failure recovery notification, etc.).

The performance control board 12 is equipped with a performance control CPU 120, a ROM 121, a RAM 122, a display control section 123, a random number circuit 124, and an I/O 125.

The effect control CPU 120 executes a program stored in the ROM 121 to execute a process for executing the effect together with the display control unit 123 (a process for realizing the above function of the effect control board 12, and the effect to be executed (including the decision, etc.). At this time, various data (data such as various tables) stored in the ROM 121 are used, and the RAM 122 is used as a main memory.

(motion)
Next, the operation (action) of the pachinko game machine 1 will be described.

(Major operations of the main substrate 11)
First, main operations in the main board 11 will be described. When power supply to the pachinko game machine 1 is started, the game control microcomputer 100 is activated, and the CPU 103 executes the game control main process. FIG. 4 is a flowchart showing game control main processing executed by the CPU 103 on the main substrate 11. As shown in FIG.

In the game control main process shown in FIG. 4, the CPU 103 first sets interrupt prohibition (step S1). Subsequently, necessary initial settings are performed (step S2). Initial settings include stack pointer setting, internal device register setting (CTC (counter/timer circuit), parallel input/output port, etc.), setting to make RAM 102 accessible, and the like.

Next, it is determined whether or not the recovery condition is satisfied (step S3). The recovery condition can be satisfied when the clear signal is in the OFF state, there is backup data, and the backup RAM is normal. When the power supply to the pachinko game machine 1 is started, for example, if a clear switch provided on the power supply board 17 is pressed, a clear signal in an ON state is input to the game control microcomputer 100 . If such an on-state clear signal is input, it may be determined in step S3 that the restoration condition is not established. It is sufficient that the backup data can be stored in the RAM 102 serving as a backup RAM for game control. In step S3, the presence or absence of backup data, the presence or absence of data errors, etc. may be confirmed or inspected to determine whether or not the recovery condition can be established.

If the restoration condition is satisfied (step S3; Yes), after executing the restoration process (step S4), the setting confirmation process (step S5) is executed. The work area is set based on the contents stored in the RAM 102 by the recovery process in step S4. By setting the work area using the backup data stored in the RAM 102, the game state when the power supply is stopped can be restored. It is sufficient if the pattern variation can be restarted.

If the recovery condition is not satisfied (step S3; No), the initialization process (step S6) is performed, and then the setting change process (step S7) is performed. The initialization processing in step S6 includes clear processing for clearing the flags, counters, and buffers stored in the RAM 102, and initial values are set in the work area by executing the clear processing.

In the setting confirmation process of step S5, it is determined whether or not a predetermined setting confirmation condition is satisfied. The setting confirmation condition is established, for example, when the detection signal from the door opening sensor 90 is ON and the setting key 51 is ON when the power supply is started. The setting confirmation process of step S5 is executed when the recovery condition including the clear signal being in the OFF state is satisfied in step S3. Therefore, since the setting confirmation condition can be satisfied only when the clear signal is in the OFF state, the fact that the clear signal is in the OFF state can also be included in the setting confirmation condition.

When the setting confirmation condition is satisfied in the setting confirmation process of step S5, the setting confirmation state is entered in which the setting value set in the pachinko game machine 1 can be confirmed, and the main board 11 sets the performance control board 12. A confirmation start command is sent. In the setting confirmation state, the setting values set in the pachinko game machine 1 can be confirmed by the display on the display monitor 29 . When ending the setting confirmation state, a setting confirmation end command is transmitted from the main board 11 to the effect control board 12 .

When the pachinko game machine 1 is in the setting confirmation state, the pachinko game machine 1 may be in a game stop state to stop the progress of the game. When the game is in the stopped state, shooting of game balls by operating the batted ball operation handle, detection of game balls by various switches, etc. are stopped, and the first special symbol display device 4A, the second special symbol display device 4B, and the normal symbols are stopped. The display device 20 may be controlled so as to stop display of the winning symbols or the like, or display corresponding to the game stop state different from the losing symbols. When the setting confirmation state ends, the game stop state associated therewith should also end.

In the setting change process of step S7, it is determined whether or not a predetermined setting change condition is satisfied. The setting change condition is satisfied, for example, when the detection signal from the door opening sensor 90 is in the ON state and the setting key 51 is turned ON when power supply is started. The setting change condition may include that the clear signal is on.

When the setting change condition is satisfied in the setting change process of step S7, the setting change state is set in which the setting value set in the pachinko game machine 1 can be changed, and the main board 11 sets to the effect control board 12. A change start command is sent. In the setting change state, the setting values are displayed on the display monitor 29, and each time the operation of the setting changeover switch 52 is detected, the numerical values displayed on the display monitor 29 are sequentially updated and displayed. After that, when the setting key 51 is turned off by an operation by a game hall staff member or the like, the setting value displayed on the display monitor 29 is stored (updated) in the backup area of the RAM 102, and the display monitor 29 is updated. turn off the When ending the setting change state, a setting change end command is transmitted from the main board 11 to the effect control board 12 .

When the pachinko game machine 1 is in the setting change state, the pachinko game machine 1 may be put in the game stop state as in the setting confirmation state. When the setting change state ends, the game stop state associated therewith should also end.

On the effect control board 12 side, when a setting confirmation start command or a setting change start command is received, control may be performed to notify that the setting is being checked or that the setting is being changed. For example, a predetermined image may be displayed on the image display device 5, a predetermined sound may be output from the speakers 8L and 8R, or a light-emitting member such as the game effect lamp 9 may emit light in a predetermined manner.

The clear signal is turned on by pressing a clear switch provided on the power supply board 17, for example. Therefore, if the detection signal from the door opening sensor 90 is on and the setting key 51 is on when the power supply is started, and if the clear switch is on, the initialization process of step S6 and the step The setting change process of S7 is executed to enable control to the setting change state, and if the clear switch is off, the setting confirmation process of step S5 is executed together with the recovery process of step S4 to enable control to the setting confirmation state. If the detection signal from the door opening sensor 90 is off when the power supply is started, or if the setting key 51 is off, and if the clear switch is on, the initialization process of step S6 is executed. On the other hand, it is not controlled to the setting change state, and if the clear switch is off, the recovery processing of step S4 is executed, but it is not controlled to the setting confirmation state.

After executing the setting confirmation process or the setting change process, the CPU 103 executes a random number circuit setting process for initializing the random number circuit 104 (step S8). Then, the register of the CTC built in the game control microcomputer 100 is set so that the timer interrupt is periodically applied every predetermined time (for example, 2 ms) (step S9), and the interrupt is permitted (step S10 ). After that, loop processing is entered. Thereafter, an interrupt request signal is sent from the CTC to the CPU 103 at predetermined time intervals (for example, 2 ms), and the CPU 103 can periodically execute timer interrupt processing.

When the CPU 103 that has executed such game control main processing receives the interrupt request signal from the CTC and accepts the interrupt request, it executes the game control timer interrupt processing shown in the flowchart of FIG. When the game control timer interrupt process shown in FIG. It is determined whether or not detection signals have been received from various switches such as the switch 22B and the count switch 23 (step S21). Subsequently, by executing predetermined main-side error processing, an abnormality diagnosis of the pachinko game machine 1 is performed, and a warning can be generated if necessary according to the diagnosis result (step S22). After that, by executing a predetermined information output process, for example, jackpot information (information indicating the number of occurrences of jackpots, etc.), start information (start Data such as information indicating the number of wins, etc.), probability change information (information indicating the number of times the odd state has occurred, etc.) is output (step S23).

Following the information output process, a game random number update process for updating at least part of the game random numbers used on the main board 11 side by software is executed (step S24). After that, the CPU 103 executes a special symbol process (step S25). By the CPU 103 executing the special symbol process processing for each timer interrupt, execution and suspension management of the special symbol game, control of the jackpot game state, control of the game state, and the like are realized.

Following the special symbol process, the normal symbol process is executed (step S26). The CPU 103 executes normal symbol process processing for each timer interrupt, thereby managing the execution and suspension of the normal symbol game based on the detection signal from the gate switch 21 (based on the game ball passing through the passage gate 41), It is possible to control the opening of the variable winning ball device 6B based on the "normal game hit". The execution of the normal pattern game is performed by driving the normal pattern display device 20, and the normal pattern reservation number is displayed by lighting the normal pattern reservation display device 25C.

After executing the normal symbol process processing, as part of the game control timer interrupt processing, processing when power failure occurs, processing for paying out prize balls, and the like may be performed. After that, the CPU 103 executes command control processing (step S27). The CPU 103 may transmit and set an effect control command in each of the processes described above. In the command control process of step S27, a process of transmitting the effect control command set for transmission to the sub-side control board such as the effect control board 12 is performed. After executing the command control process, after permitting the interrupt, the game control timer interrupt process is terminated.

FIG. 6 is a flow chart showing an example of the process executed in step S25 shown in FIG. 5 as the special symbol process process. In this special symbol process process, the CPU 103 first executes a starting winning determination process (step S101).

In the starting winning determination process, the occurrence of starting winning is detected, and the process of storing the pending information in a predetermined area of the RAM 102 and updating the pending storage number is executed. When a starting prize is generated, a random number value for determining the display result (including the jackpot type) and the variation pattern is extracted and stored as pending information. Further, based on the extracted random number value, a process of pre-reading and judging the display result and the variation pattern may be executed. After storing the pending information and the number of pending memories, the transmission setting for transmitting the effect control command for specifying the determination result such as the occurrence of the start winning, the number of pending memories, and the prefetch determination is performed on the effect control board 12. will be The effect control command at the time of starting winning thus set to be transmitted is transmitted from the main board 11 to the effect control board 12 by, for example, executing the command control process of step S27 shown in FIG. is transmitted to

After executing the starting prize determination process in step S101, the CPU 103 selects and executes one of the processes of steps S110 to S120 according to the value of the special figure process flag provided in the RAM102. In addition, in each process (steps S110 to S120) of the special symbol process process, transmission setting for transmitting the effect control command corresponding to each process to the effect control board 12 is performed.

The special symbol normal process of step S110 is executed when the value of the special symbol process flag is "0" (initial value). In this special symbol normal process, it is determined whether or not to start the first special symbol game or the second special symbol game based on the presence or absence of pending information. In addition, in the special symbol normal processing, based on the random number value for determining the display result, whether or not the display result of the special symbol or the decorative symbol is to be a "big hit" and the type of the big hit in the case of a "big hit" are determined by the display result. is determined (predetermined) before is derived and displayed. Furthermore, in the special symbol normal process, a fixed special symbol (either a big hit symbol or a losing symbol) to be stopped and displayed in the special symbol game is set according to the determined display result. After that, the value of the special figure process flag is updated to "1", and the special symbol normal process ends. In addition, the special figure game using the second special figure may be executed with priority over the special figure game using the first special figure (also called special figure 2 priority digestion). Also, the winning order of the game balls to the first start winning opening and the second starting winning opening may be stored, and the start condition of the special game may be established in the order of winning (also called winning order).

When making various decisions based on random numbers, various tables stored in the ROM 101 (tables in which decision values to be compared with random numbers are assigned to decision results) are referred to. Other decisions on the main board 11 and various decisions on the effect control board 12 are the same. Various tables are stored in the ROM 121 of the effect control board 12 .

The variation pattern setting process of step S111 is executed when the value of the special figure process flag is "1". This variation pattern setting process includes a process of determining one of a plurality of variation patterns using a random number value for determining the variation pattern based on the result of pre-determination of whether or not the display result is a "big hit". It is included. In the variation pattern setting process, when the variation pattern is determined, the value of the special figure process flag is updated to "2", and the variation pattern setting process ends.

The variation pattern is the execution time of the special game (special figure fluctuation time) (also the execution time of variable display of decorative patterns), the form of variable display of decorative patterns (whether or not there is a reach, etc.), and the variable display of decorative patterns. It specifies the content of the production (type of reach production, etc.), and is also called a variable display pattern.

The special symbol variation process of step S112 is executed when the value of the special symbol process flag is "2". This special symbol variation processing includes a process of setting for varying the special symbols in the first special symbol display device 4A and the second special symbol display device 4B, and the elapsed time after the special symbol starts to vary. It includes processing to measure Also, it is determined whether or not the measured elapsed time has reached the special figure variation time corresponding to the variation pattern. Then, when the elapsed time from the start of the special symbol variation reaches the special symbol variation time, the value of the special symbol process flag is updated to "3", and the special symbol variation processing ends.

The special symbol stop processing of step S113 is executed when the value of the special symbol process flag is "3". In this special symbol stop processing, the first special symbol display device 4A and the second special symbol display device 4B stop the variation of the special symbol, and stop display (derivate) the fixed special symbol which is the display result of the special symbol. It includes a process to set for Then, when the display result is "big hit", the value of the special figure process flag is updated to "4". When the display result is "missing", when it is controlled in the time saving state or the variable probability state, and when the end of the number of cuts is established, the game state is also updated. When the value of the special figure process flag is updated, the special symbol stop processing ends.

The jackpot opening preprocessing of step S114 is executed when the value of the special figure process flag is "4". This jackpot opening pre-processing includes processing for making settings for starting the execution of the round in the jackpot game state and opening the jackpot, based on the fact that the display result is "jackpot". is When opening the big winning opening, a process of supplying a solenoid driving signal to the solenoid 82 for the big winning opening door is executed. At this time, for example, an upper limit opening period for opening the big winning opening and an upper limit execution number of rounds are set according to the type of the jackpot. When these settings are completed, the value of the special figure process flag is updated to "5", and the big hit opening pretreatment is completed.

The process during jackpot opening of step S115 is performed when the value of a special figure process flag is "5". In this process during the opening of the big win, there is a process of measuring the elapsed time from opening the big winning hole, and based on the measured elapsed time and the number of game balls detected by the count switch 23, the big winning hole is counted. It includes processing for determining whether or not it is time to return from the open state to the closed state. Then, when returning the large winning opening to the closed state, after executing processing such as stopping the supply of the solenoid drive signal to the solenoid 82 for the large winning opening door, the value of the special figure process flag is updated to "6", The process during jackpot opening is terminated.

The jackpot opening post-processing of step S116 is executed when the value of the special figure process flag is "6". This jackpot opening post-processing includes processing for determining whether or not the number of executions of rounds in which the jackpot is opened has reached a set upper limit number of executions, and processing for judging whether or not the number of executions of rounds in which the jackpot is opened has reached a set upper limit number of executions. It includes processing to make settings for terminating . Then, when the number of executions of the round has not reached the upper limit number of executions, the value of the special process flag is updated to "5", while when the number of executions of the round reaches the upper limit number of executions, the special process flag The value is updated to "7". When the value of the special figure process flag is updated, the jackpot release post-processing ends.

The jackpot end processing of step S117 is executed when the value of the special figure process flag is "7". This jackpot end processing includes a process of waiting until a waiting time corresponding to a period in which an ending production is executed as a production operation for notifying the end of the jackpot game state, and a probability change corresponding to the end of the jackpot game state. It includes processing for performing various settings for starting control and time saving control. When such setting is performed, the value of the special figure process flag is updated to "0", and the jackpot ending process ends.

The pachinko game machine 1 is configured such that the probability of winning a jackpot and the rate of winning balls are changed according to the set value. For example, in the special symbol normal processing of the special symbol process processing, by using the display result determination table (winning probability) according to the set value, the probability of winning a big hit and the rate of winning balls are changed. For example, the setting value consists of 6 stages from 1 to 6, and 6 is the highest probability of winning the big win, and the probability of winning the big win decreases in the order of 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 as the value decreases. In this example, when 6 is set as the setting value, the advantage for the player is the highest, and the lower the value in the order of 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, the lower the advantage in stages. . If the winning probability of the big win changes according to the set value, the ball payout rate may also change according to the set value. While the winning probability of the big win is constant regardless of the set value, the number of rounds in the big win game state may change according to the set value. The pachinko game machine 1 may be configured so as to be able to set one of a plurality of set values with different degrees of advantage for the player. The set values set in the pachinko game machine 1 are notified by transmitting a set value designation command from the main board 11 side to the effect control board 12 side.

FIG. 7 shows a configuration example of a display result determination table. Figure 7 (A) shows a configuration example of the display result determination table for the first special figure used when the variation special figure is the first special figure, and Figure 7 (B) shows that the variation special figure is the second special figure It shows a configuration example of the display result determination table for the second special figure used when it is a figure. A display result determination table is a collection of data stored in the ROM 101 . In the display result determination table, the hit determination value compared with the random number MR1 is assigned to the special symbol display result, which is the variable display result of the special symbol, according to the set value. The random number MR1 is a random number for determining the display result, and the value is randomly updated within the range of 0-65535. As the display result determination table, a common display result determination table may be used for the first special figure and the second special figure.

As shown in FIG. 7 (A), when the variable special figure is the first special figure, the set value is 1 and when the game state is the normal state or the time saving state, in the range of 0 to 65535 It is a numerical value that can take a value, and among the hit judgment values that are compared with the random number MR1 for special figure display result judgment, 1020 to 1237 are assigned to "big hit", and 65317 to 65535 are "with time saving "missing" and other numerical ranges are assigned to "missing". In addition, when the set value is 1 and the game state is a variable probability state, among the above-mentioned hit determination values, 1020 to 1346 are assigned to "big hit", and other numerical ranges are assigned to "miss" assigned. It should be noted that when the variable special figure is set to 2 to 6 in the first special figure and the game state is the normal state or the time saving state, it is as shown in FIG. 7(A).

As shown in FIG. 7 (B), when the fluctuation special figure is the second special figure, the set value is 1, and if the game state is the normal state or the time saving state, in the range of 0 to 65535 It is a numerical value that can take a value, and among the hit judgment values compared with the random number MR1 for special figure display result judgment, 1020 to 1237 are assigned to "big hit", and 65317 to 65425 are "with time saving "missing" and other numerical ranges are assigned to "missing". In addition, when the set value is 1 and the game state is a variable probability state, among the above-mentioned hit determination values, 1020 to 1346 are assigned to "big hit", and other numerical ranges are assigned to "miss" assigned. In addition, for the case where the variable special figure has a set value of 2 to 6 in the second special figure and the game state is the normal state or the time saving state, it is as shown in FIG. 7(B).

Here, focusing on the numerical range of the hit determination value assigned to "big hit" or "loss with time saving" in each display result determination table, as shown in FIG. In the first special figure display result determination table, the range from 1020 to 1237 of the hit determination values is set to the common numerical range of the big hit determination values for determining the big hit regardless of the set value.

In addition, when the set value is 1, only the common numerical range of the jackpot determination value for judging the jackpot is set (1020 to 1237 are assigned to the "jackpot"), while the set value 2 In the case of set value 6, a numerical range corresponding to each set value from 1238 is set as a non-common numerical range of the big hit determination value so as to be continuous from the common numerical range of the big hit determination value. The non-common numerical range of this jackpot determination value is the range of 1238 to 1253 for setting value 2, the range from 1238 to 1272 for setting value 3, the range from 1238 to 1292 for setting value 4, and the range from 1238 to 1317 for setting value 5. , and set value 6 are set in the range of 1238 to 1346, respectively.

That is, in the first special figure display result determination table when the gaming state is the normal state or the time saving state, if the setting value is 1, the hit determination value that can take a value in the range of 0 to 65535, common While only numbers within the numerical range (1020-1237) are assigned to the "jackpot", if the set value is 2 or more, the non-common numerical range is added to the common numerical range among the jackpot determination values. A number within the range is assigned to the "jackpot". Furthermore, the non-common numerical range increases from 1238 as the set value increases.

For this reason, the probability of a big hit increases as the non-common numerical range that is continuous with the common numerical range increases as the set value increases, with 1020 as the reference value for the judgment value of the big hit (jackpot reference value). go.

Furthermore, in the first special figure display result determination table when the game state is the normal state or the time saving state, the range from 65317 to 65535 of the hit determination values determines the time saving loss regardless of the set value It is set to the common numerical range of the deviation judgment value with time saving. Focusing on the case where the set value is 6, when the set value is 6, as described above, 1020 to 1346 of the hit judgment values are set in the numerical range of the big hit judgment value, and with time saving The deviation determination value is in a numerical range different from the range of the big hit determination value (1020 to 1346) of the setting value 6, with 65317 as a reference value for loss with time reduction (reference value for loss with time reduction), in the range of 65317 to 65535 Since it is set, it is prevented that the numerical range of the loss determination value with time saving is overlapped with the range of the big hit determination value which changes according to each set value.

In addition, in the first special figure display result determination table when the gaming state is the variable probability state, the range from 1020 to 1346 of the hit determination values is the jackpot determination value for determining the jackpot regardless of the set value. Set to a common numeric range.

When the set value is 1, only the common numerical range of the jackpot determination value for judging the jackpot is set (1020 to 1346 are assigned to the "jackpot"), while the set value 2 to setting In the case of value 6, a numerical range corresponding to each set value from 1347 is set as the non-common numerical range of the big hit determination value so as to be continuous from the common numerical range of the big hit determination value. The non-common numerical range of this jackpot judgment value is the range of 1347 to 1383 for the setting value 2, the range of 1347 to 1429 for the setting value 3, the range 1347 to 1487 for the setting value 4, and the range 1347 to 1556 for the setting value 5. , and set value 6 are set in the range of 1347 to 1674, respectively.

That is, in the first special figure display result determination table when the gaming state is a variable probability state, if the set value is 1, the common numerical range ( 1020 to 1346) are assigned to the "jackpot", while if the set value is 2 or more, among the jackpot determination values, the common numerical range plus the non-common numerical range A numerical value is assigned to the "jackpot". Furthermore, the non-common numerical range increases with 1347 as the reference as the set value increases.

For this reason, the probability of a big hit increases as the non-common numerical range that is continuous with the common numerical range increases as the set value increases, with 1020 as the reference value for the judgment value of the big hit (jackpot reference value). go.

In the second special figure display result determination table in the case where the game state is the normal state or the time saving state, the range from 1020 to 1237 of the hit determination values is the jackpot determination value for determining the big hit regardless of the set value. is set to a common numeric range for

In addition, when the set value is 1, only the common numerical range of the jackpot determination value for judging the jackpot is set (1020 to 1237 are assigned to the "jackpot"), while the set value 2 In the case of set value 6, a numerical range corresponding to each set value from 1238 is set as a non-common numerical range of the big hit determination value so as to be continuous from the common numerical range of the big hit determination value. The non-common numerical range of this jackpot determination value is the range of 1238 to 1253 for setting value 2, the range from 1238 to 1272 for setting value 3, the range from 1238 to 1292 for setting value 4, and the range from 1238 to 1317 for setting value 5. , and set value 6 are set in the range of 1238 to 1346, respectively.

In other words, in the pachinko gaming machine 1, in the second special figure display result determination table when the gaming state is the normal state or the time saving state, when the set value is 1, the value can be in the range of 0 to 65535 Of the hit judgment values, only numbers within the common numerical range (1020 to 1237) are assigned to the "jackpot", while if the set value is 2 or more, among the jackpot judgment values, the common numerical range Numbers within the range plus the non-common number range are assigned to the "jackpot". Furthermore, the non-common numerical range increases from 1238 as the set value increases.

For this reason, the probability of a big hit increases as the non-common numerical range that is continuous with the common numerical range increases as the set value increases, with 1020 as the reference value for the judgment value of the big hit (jackpot reference value). go.

Furthermore, in the second special figure display result determination table when the game state is the normal state or the time saving state, the range from 65317 to 65425 of the hit determination values determines the time saving loss regardless of the set value It is set to the common numerical range of the deviation judgment value with time saving. Focusing on the case where the set value is 6, when the set value is 6, as described above, 1020 to 1346 of the hit judgment values are set in the numerical range of the big hit judgment value, and with time saving The deviation determination value is in a numerical range different from the range of the big hit determination value of the setting value 6 (1020 to 1346), with 65317 as a reference value for loss with time reduction (reference value for loss with time reduction), in the range of 65317 to 65425 Since it is set, it is prevented that the numerical range of the loss determination value with time saving is overlapped with the range of the big hit determination value which changes according to each set value.

In the second special figure display result determination table when the game state is the variable probability state, the range from 1020 to 1346 of the hit determination values is the common numerical value of the jackpot determination value for determining the jackpot regardless of the set value. set in the range. The characteristics of the other second special figure display result determination table are the same as those of the first special figure display result determination table.

As described above, in the pachinko gaming machine 1, when the variable special symbol is the first special symbol, regardless of the set value, 65317 to When the range of 65535 is set in the common numerical range with time reduction and the deviation is the second special symbol, when the game state is the normal state and the time reduction state, the set value Regardless, the range of 65317 to 65425 is set as a common numerical range for time saving. In other words, when the game state is the normal state and the time saving state, the rate at which the variable display result is not with the time saving is a common rate for any set value, so the gambling property depending on the set value can be prevented from becoming excessively high. In addition, for time-saving loss to which a common judgment value number is assigned for each set value, since it is set in a continuous numerical range from 65317, which is the time-saving loss reference value, in any setting value, variable display It is possible to reduce the processing load of the CPU 103 regarding the determination of the result as being out of time saving.

In this pachinko game machine 1, the number of setting values that can be set is 6 from 1 to 6, but the number of setting values that can be set in the pachinko game machine 1 may be 5 or less or 7 or more. . Also, the smaller the set value set in the pachinko game machine 1, the more advantageous it is for the player.

The jackpot type may be determined at different ratios depending on the set value based on the assignment of the determination value in the jackpot type determination table. Alternatively, the jackpot type may be determined at a common rate regardless of the set value. The variation pattern may be determined at different ratios according to the set values based on the assignment of the determination values in the variation pattern determination table. Alternatively, the variation pattern may be determined with a common ratio regardless of the set value. A set value may be suggested by the frequency with which normal reach and super reach are performed by having the execution ratio of normal reach and super reach differ according to a set value. Alternatively, regardless of the setting value, the execution ratio of normal reach and super reach may be common. In addition, it may be possible to execute arbitrary setting suggestion effects at different ratios according to the set values.

(Major operations of production control board 12)
Next, main operations in the effect control board 12 will be described. In the effect control board 12, when the power supply voltage is supplied from the power supply board or the like, the effect control CPU 120 is activated, and the effect control main processing as shown in the flowchart of FIG. 9 is executed. When the production control main process shown in FIG. 9 is started, the production control CPU 120 first executes a predetermined initialization process (step S71), clears the RAM 122, sets various initial values, Perform register setting of the mounted CTC (counter/timer circuit). Also, an initial operation control process is executed (step S72). In the initial operation control process, control for initial operation of the movable mounting body 32, such as control for driving the movable mounting body 32 to return it to the origin position and control for confirming a predetermined operation, is executed.

After that, it is determined whether or not the timer interrupt flag is turned on (step S73). The timer interrupt flag is set to ON every time a predetermined time (for example, 2 milliseconds) elapses based on, for example, the CTC register setting. At this time, if the timer interrupt flag is off (step S73; No), the process of step S73 is repeatedly executed and waits.

Also, on the side of the effect control board 12, an interrupt for receiving the effect control command from the main board 11 is generated in addition to the timer interrupt that occurs each time a predetermined time elapses. This interrupt is an interrupt generated when, for example, the effect control INT signal from the main substrate 11 is turned on. When an interrupt occurs due to the effect control INT signal being turned on, the effect control CPU 120 automatically sets interrupt prohibition, but when using a CPU that does not automatically enter an interrupt prohibition state, interrupt It is desirable to issue a prohibition instruction (DI instruction). The effect control CPU 120 executes, for example, a predetermined command reception interrupt process in response to the interruption caused by the effect control INT signal being turned on. In this command reception interrupt process, the effect control command is taken in from a predetermined input port for receiving the control signal transmitted from the main board 11 via the relay board 15 among the input ports included in the I/O 125 . The effect control command taken in at this time is stored in the effect control command reception buffer provided in the RAM 122, for example. After that, the effect control CPU 120 ends the command reception interrupt process after setting the interrupt permission.

If the timer interrupt flag is ON at step S73 (step S73; Yes), the timer interrupt flag is cleared to be turned off (step S74), and command analysis processing is executed (step S75). In the command analysis process, for example, after reading various effect control commands that are transmitted from the game control microcomputer 100 of the main board 11 and stored in the effect control command reception buffer, the read effect control command Corresponding settings and controls are performed. For example, the read production control command is stored in a predetermined area of the RAM 122, or the read production control command is stored in a predetermined area of the RAM 122 so that the content specified by the production control command can be confirmed by the production control process processing or the like. It turns on the provided reception flag. Further, when the effect control command specifies the game state, the display control unit 123 may be instructed to display a background corresponding to the game state.

After executing the command analysis process in step S75, the effect control process process is executed (step S76). In the effect control process processing, for example, the display operation of the effect image in the display area of the image display device 5, the sound output operation from the speakers 8L and 8R, the lighting operation of the decorative light emitters such as the game effect lamp 9 and the decorative LED, and the mounting movable body Control for operating various production devices such as driving operation of 32 is performed. Further, determination, determination, setting, and the like are performed according to the effect control command and the like transmitted from the main substrate 11 regarding the control contents of the effect operation using various effect devices.

Random number update processing for production|presentation is performed following the production|presentation control process processing of step S76 (step S77), and at least one part of the random number for production|presentation used by the production|presentation control board 12 side is updated by software. After that, the process returns to step S73. Other processing may be performed before returning to the processing of step S73.

FIG. 10 is a flow chart showing an example of processing executed in step S76 of FIG. 9 as the effect control process processing. In the effect control process shown in FIG. 10, the effect control CPU 120 first executes a pre-reading notice setting process (step S161). In the pre-reading notice setting process, for example, based on the effect control command at the time of start winning transmitted from the main substrate 11, determination, determination, setting, etc. for executing the pre-reading notice effect are performed. Also, a process for displaying a pending display is executed based on the number of pending memories specified from the effect control command.

After executing the process of step S161, the effect control CPU 120 selects and executes one of the processes of steps S170 to S175 as described below according to the value of the effect process flag provided in the RAM 122, for example.

The variable display start waiting process in step S170 is a process executed when the value of the effect process flag is "0" (initial value). This variable display start waiting process is a process of determining whether or not to start variable display of decorative patterns on the image display device 5 based on whether or not a command designating the start of variable display has been received from the main substrate 11. and so on. When it is determined to start the variable display of the decoration pattern on the image display device 5, the value of the effect process flag is updated to "1", and the variable display start waiting process is terminated.

The variable display start setting process in step S171 is a process executed when the value of the effect process flag is "1". In this variable display start setting process, based on the display result and the variation pattern specified by the effect control command, the display result of the variable display of the decorative pattern (determined decorative pattern), the form of the variable display of the decorative pattern, the ready-to-win effect, and various other Whether or not to execute various effects such as advance notice effects, its mode, execution start timing, etc. are determined. Then, an effect control pattern (collection of control data for instructing the display control unit 123 to execute the effect) reflecting the determination result or the like is set. After that, based on the set effect control pattern, the display control unit 123 is instructed to start execution of variable display of decorative symbols, the value of the effect process flag is updated to "2", and the variable display start setting process is terminated. The display control unit 123 causes the image display device 5 to start variable display of the decorative design in response to an instruction to start execution of variable display of the decorative design.

The effect process during variable display in step S172 is a process executed when the value of the effect process flag is "2". In this variable display effect processing, the effect control CPU 120 instructs the display control unit 123 to display the effect image based on the effect control pattern set in step S171 on the display screen of the image display device 5. , driving the mounting movable body 32, outputting a sound or sound effect from the speakers 8L and 8R by outputting a command (sound effect signal) to the sound control board 13, commanding the lamp control board 14 (illumination signal) Various effect control during the variable display of the decoration pattern, such as turning on/off/blinking the game effect lamp 9 and the decoration LED, is executed by the output of . After performing such effect control, for example, an end code indicating the end of the variable display of the decorative pattern is read from the effect control pattern, or a command designating to stop display of the fixed decorative pattern is received from the main board 11. Corresponding to the fact that the player has done so, the fixed decoration pattern which becomes the display result of the decoration pattern is stopped and displayed. When the fixed decoration pattern is stopped and displayed, the value of the production process flag is updated to "3", and the production process during variable display ends.

The special figure per waiting process of step S173 is a process executed when the value of the production process flag is "3". In this special figure waiting process, the effect control CPU 120 determines whether or not an effect control command designating the start of the big hit game state is received from the main substrate 11 . Then, when receiving a performance control command designating the start of the jackpot game state, the value of the performance process flag is updated to "4". Further, when the waiting time for receiving the command has elapsed without receiving the command designating the start of the jackpot game state, it is determined that the display result in the special figure game is "lost", and the production process flag is set. is updated to the initial value "0". When the value of the production process flag is updated, the special figure per waiting process is terminated.

The effect process during the big hit in step S174 is a process executed when the value of the effect process flag is "6". In this big-hit production process, the production control CPU 120 sets, for example, production control patterns corresponding to the production contents in the big-hit game state, and executes various production controls in the big-hit game state based on the set contents. In the big-hit production process, for example, in response to receiving a command designating to end the big-hit game state from the main board 11, the value of the production process flag is set to "5", which is the value corresponding to the ending production process. ”, and ends the effect processing during the big hit.

The ending effect process of step S175 is a process executed when the value of the effect process flag is "7". In this ending effect processing, the effect control CPU 120 sets, for example, effect control patterns corresponding to the end of the jackpot game state, etc., and controls various effects of the ending effect at the end of the jackpot game state based on the set contents. Execute. After that, the value of the effect process flag is updated to the initial value of "0", and the ending effect process is terminated.

FIG. 11-3 is an explanatory diagram showing an example of the content of the effect control command used in the pachinko gaming machine 1. FIG. The effect control command has, for example, a 2-byte configuration, where the first byte indicates MODE (class of command) and the second byte indicates EXT (type of command). The leading bit (bit 7) of MODE data is always set to "1", and the leading bit of EXT data is set to "0". The command form shown in FIG. 11-3(A) is an example, and other command forms may be used. Also, in this example, the control command is made up of two control signals, but the number of control signals that make up the control command may be one, or three or more.

In the example shown in FIG. 11-3 (A), the command 8001H is the first variable display start command that designates the start of variable display in the special figure game using the first special figure in the first special symbol display device 4A. . Command 8002H is a second variable display start command that designates the start of variable display in the special symbol game using the second special symbol in the second special symbol display device 4B. The command 81XXH is a decoration that is variably displayed in each of the "left", "middle" and "right" decoration design display areas 5L, 5C and 5R on the image display device 5 corresponding to the variable display of the special design in the special game. It is a variation pattern specification command that specifies a variation pattern (variation time (variable display time)) such as a design (also referred to as a production design). Here, XXH indicates that it is an unspecified hexadecimal number, and may be a value that is arbitrarily set according to the contents of instructions by the effect control command. In the variation pattern specification command, different EXT data are set according to the specified variation pattern.

Command 8CXXH is a variable display result designation command, and is an effect control command for designating a variable display result such as a special design or a decorative design. In the variable display result specifying command, for example, as shown in FIG. 11-3(B), it is determined whether the variable display result (also referred to as variable display result) is "loss", "big hit" or "minor hit". Different EXT data are set according to the result (predetermined result) or the determination result (jackpot type determination result) of a plurality of types of jackpot types when the variable display result is "big hit".

Among the variable display result specifying commands, for example, as shown in FIG. 11-3(B), the command 8C00H is the first variable display result specifying command indicating the predetermined result that the variable display result is "no". . The command 8C01H is a second variable display result specification command for notifying the pre-determined result that the variable display result is "jackpot" and the jackpot type is "probability variable jackpot A" and the jackpot type determination result. The command 8C02H is a third variable display result specifying command for notifying the pre-determined result that the variable display result is "jackpot" and the jackpot type is "probability variable jackpot B" and the jackpot type determination result. The command 8C03H is a fourth variable display result specifying command for notifying the pre-determined result that the variable display result is "jackpot" and the jackpot type is "probability variable jackpot C" and the jackpot type determination result. The command 8C04H is a fifth variable display result designation command for notifying the pre-determined result and the jackpot type determination result that the variable display result is "big hit" and the jackpot type is "unprobable variable big hit". The command 8C05H is a sixth variable display result designation command for notifying the pre-determined result that the variable display result will be a "minor hit".

The command 8F00H is a pattern confirmation command for designating the stoppage (confirmation) of the decorative patterns in the “left”, “middle” and “right” decorative pattern display areas 5L, 5C and 5R of the image display device 5 . The command 95XXH is a game state designation command that designates the current game state in the pachinko gaming machine 1. FIG. In the game state designation command, different EXT data are set according to the current game state in the pachinko gaming machine 1, for example. As a specific example, the command 9500H is the first game state designation command corresponding to the game state (low probability low base state, normal state) in which neither the time saving control nor the probability variation control is performed, and the command 9501H is the time saving control. It is a second game state designation command corresponding to a game state (low probability high base state, short working time state) in which probability variation control is not performed while being performed. In addition, the command 9502H is the third game state designation command corresponding to the game state (high probability low base state, time saving no probability change state) where the time saving control is not performed while the probability change control is performed, and the command 9503H is time saving control and probability change It is a fourth game state designation command corresponding to the game state (high-probability-high base state, time-saving probability-variable state) in which control is performed together.

The command 9000 (H) is an effect control command (initialization designation command: power-on designation command) transmitted when power supply to the pachinko gaming machine 1 is started. The command 9200 (H) is an effect control command (power failure recovery designation command) transmitted when the power supply to the pachinko game machine 1 is resumed after the power supply is temporarily stopped. When the power supply to the game machine is started, the game control microcomputer 100 transmits a power failure restoration designation command if data is stored in the backup RAM, and otherwise designates initialization. Send command.

The command A0XXH is a winning start designation command (also referred to as "fanfare command") for designating display of an effect image indicating the start of a big winning game or a small winning game. The command A1XXH is a large winning opening open notification command for notifying that the large winning opening is open in the jackpot gaming state. The command A2XXH is a post-opening notification command for the big winning opening to notify that the big winning opening has changed from the open state to the closed state in the big winning game state. The command A3XXH is a win end designation command for designating display of an effect image at the end of a big win game or a small win.

In the winning start designation command and the winning end designation command, for example, by setting the same EXT data as the variable display result designation command, different EXT data may be set according to the pre-determined result and the jackpot type determination result. . Alternatively, in the winning start designation command and the winning end designation command, the correspondence relationship between the pre-determined result and the jackpot type determination result and the set EXT data may be different from the correspondence relationship in the variable display result designation command. . In the notification command during the opening of the big winning opening and the notification command after opening the big winning opening, for example, corresponding to the number of rounds executed in the normal opening jackpot state and the high-speed opening jackpot state (for example, "1" to "10") to be described later, Different EXT data are set.

The command B100H is based on the fact that a game ball passing through (entering) the first starting winning opening formed by the winning ball device 6A is detected by the first starting opening switch 22A and a starting winning (first starting winning) occurs. It is a first start winning designation command for notifying that the first starting condition for executing the special symbol game using the first special symbol in the first special symbol display device 4A is satisfied. The command B200H is based on the fact that the game ball passing through (entering) the second starting winning opening formed by the variable winning ball device 6B is detected by the second starting opening switch 22B and the starting winning (second starting winning) occurs. , It is a second start winning designation command for notifying that the second start condition for executing the special symbol game using the second special symbol in the second special symbol display device 4B is satisfied.

Command C1XXH is a first reserved storage number notification command for notifying the first special figure reserved storage number in order to be able to specify the special figure reserved storage number. Command C2XXH is a second pending storage number notification command for notifying the second special figure pending storage number in order to be able to specify the special figure pending storage number. The first pending memory number notification command is, for example, based on the fact that the game ball passes (enters) the first start winning opening and the first starting condition is satisfied, when the first starting opening winning designation command is transmitted , is transmitted from the main board 11 to the effect control board 12 . The second pending memory number notification command is, for example, based on the fact that the game ball passes (enters) the second start winning opening and the second starting condition is satisfied, when the second starting opening winning designation command is transmitted , is transmitted from the main board 11 to the effect control board 12 . In addition, the first reserved memory number notification command and the second reserved memory number notification command are used when either the first start condition or the second start condition is satisfied (when the number of reserved memories decreases), the special game It may be transmitted in response to the start of execution or the like.

Instead of the first reserved storage number notification command and the second reserved storage number notification command, a total reserved storage number notification command for notifying the total reserved storage number may be transmitted. That is, a total pending storage number notification command may be used to report an increase (or decrease) in the total pending storage number.

The command D100 is a customer waiting demonstration specification command for specifying the execution of the customer waiting demonstration effect, and as will be described later, is executed when neither the first reserved memory nor the second reserved memory exists in the special symbol normal processing. This is a command transmitted according to the demonstration display setting, and after a predetermined period of time has elapsed after the transmission of the customer waiting demonstration specification command, the customer waiting demonstration effect is executed.

It should be noted that the commands shown in FIG. 11-3(A) are only examples, and some of these commands may be omitted, different commands may be used in place of these commands, and these commands may be used instead of these commands. You can add commands that are different from the commands in For example, a prize ball number notification command for specifying the number of prize balls to be paid out based on the game ball entering each prize hole, or a gate for notifying that the game ball has passed through the passage gate 41. You may make it provide the notification command etc. which notify the remaining frequency|count of a passage notification command, probability variation control, and time saving control to be performed.

FIG. 11-4 is an explanatory diagram illustrating random numbers counted on the main board 11 side. As shown in FIG. 11-4, on the side of the main board 11, the random number MR1 for special figure display result determination, the random number MR2 for jackpot type determination, the random number MR3 for variation pattern determination, and the normal figure display result determination Numerical data indicating each random number MR4 for is controlled to be countable. Random numbers other than these may be used in order to enhance the game effect. Random numbers used to control the progress of such games are also called game random numbers.

The random number circuit 104 may count numerical data representing part or all of these random numbers MR1 to MR4. As will be described later, the CPU 103 uses a random counter different from the random number circuit 104, such as a random counter provided in a game control counter setting unit set in the RAM 102, and updates various numerical data by software, Numerical data representing part of the random numbers MR1 to MR4 may be counted.

The random number MR1 for special figure display result determination is a random number used for determining whether or not to control the variable display result such as the special figure in the special figure game as "big win" to the big win game state. It takes a value in the range from "1" to "65536". The random number MR2 for judging the type of jackpot is any one of "variable jackpot A", "variable jackpot B", "variable jackpot C", and "variable jackpot" when the variable display result is "jackpot". is a random value used to determine , and takes a value in the range of "1" to "100", for example.

The random number MR3 for determining the variation pattern is a random number used to determine one of a plurality of types prepared in advance for the variation pattern in the variable display of special symbols and decorative symbols. 997”.

The random number MR4 for judging the result of normal pattern display is used to determine whether the variable display result in the normal pattern display device 20 in the normal pattern display is "win" or "lose". It is a random number that can be set, and takes a value in the range of "3" to "13", for example.

FIG. 11-5 (A) shows a configuration example of the special figure display result determination table 1 stored in the ROM101. In the present embodiment, as the special figure display result determination table, a common special figure display result determination table is used for the first special figure and the second special figure, but the present invention is not limited to this Instead, separate special figure display result determination tables may be used for the first special figure and the second special figure.

The special figure display result determination table 1 is a variable display result in a special figure game using the first special figure by the first special symbol display device 4A and a special figure game using the second special figure by the second special symbol display device 4B. Before the determined special symbol is derived and displayed, whether or not to control the variable display result as "big hit" to the big hit game state is determined based on the random number MR1 for special figure display result determination. It is a referenced table.

In the special figure display result determination table 1 in the present embodiment, depending on whether the game state in the pachinko gaming machine 1 is a normal state or a time saving state (low probability state) or a probability variable state (high probability state), A numerical value (judgment value) to be compared with the random number MR1 for special figure display result judgment is assigned to the special figure display result of "jackpot" or "loss".

In the special figure display result determination table 1, the table data showing the judgment value to be compared with the random number value MR1 for special figure display result judgment is whether or not to control the special figure display result as "big hit" to the big hit game state. It is the judgment data assigned to the decision result. In the special figure display result determination table 1 in the present embodiment, when the gaming state is a probability variable state (high probability state), more determination values than when it is a normal state or a time saving state (low probability state), It is assigned to the special figure display result of "jackpot". As a result, in the variable probability state (high probability state) where the variable probability control is performed in the pachinko game machine 1, when the normal state or the time saving state (low probability state), the special figure display result is set as "big hit" and controlled to the big hit game state. Then, compared to the determined probability (approximately 1/300 in the present embodiment), the probability of being determined to control the special figure display result as "jackpot" to the jackpot game state becomes higher (approximately 1 in the present embodiment /30). That is, in the special figure display result determination table 1, when the game state in the pachinko gaming machine 1 is a probability variable state (high probability state), it is determined to control to a big hit game state compared to when it is a normal state or a time saving state. Judgment data is assigned to the decision result as to whether or not to control to the jackpot game state so that the probability of winning is increased.

In addition, FIG. 11-5 (B) shows a configuration example of the special figure display result determination table 2 stored in the ROM101. The special figure display result determination table 2 is a variable display result in a special figure game using the first special figure by the first special symbol display device 4A and a special figure game using the second special figure by the second special symbol display device 4B. Before the determined special symbol is derived and displayed, it is determined based on the random number MR1 for special symbol display result determination whether or not to control the variable display result to a small winning game state as a "small win". is a table referenced for In the special figure display result determination table 2 in the present embodiment, regardless of whether the game state in the pachinko gaming machine 1 is a normal state or a time saving state (low probability state) or a probability variable state (high probability state), A numerical value (determined value) to be compared with the random number MR1 for determining the special figure display result is assigned to the special figure display result of "small hit".

In the special figure display result determination table 2, the table data showing the determination value to be compared with the random number value MR1 for special figure display result determination is whether or not to control the special figure display result to the small hit game state as "small hit". It is the judgment data assigned to the decision result. In the special figure display result determination table 2 in the present embodiment, the number of judgment values assigned to the "small hit" differs between the first special figure game and the second special figure. there is Specifically, in the case of the special game of the first special figure, the judgment value is assigned to the "small hit", but in the case of the special figure game of the second special figure, the judgment value is assigned to the "small hit". No judgment value is assigned. Therefore, as described later, the variable display of the second special figure is executed with priority over the variable display of the first special figure, and the second start winning prize formed by the variable winning ball device 6B by executing the time saving control In the high base state where the winning to the mouth occurs and the variable display of the second special figure is often executed, the "small hit" almost does not occur, and the second start formed by the variable winning ball device 6B In a high base state in which game balls are likely to enter the prize winning opening, it is possible to avoid the occurrence of small hits in which a large number of game balls cannot be acquired, thereby preventing the game interest from deteriorating.

FIG. 11-6(A) shows a configuration example of a jackpot type determination table stored in the ROM 101. FIG. The big hit type determination table in the present embodiment, when it is determined to control to the big hit game state with the special figure display result as "big hit", based on the random number MR2 for judging the big hit type, any of a plurality of types of the big hit type. It is a table that is referenced to determine whether In the big hit type determination table, the special symbol for which variable display (variable display) is performed in the special symbol game is the first special symbol (special symbol game by the first special symbol display device 4A) or the second special symbol (second 2 special symbol display device 4B), the numerical value (judgment value) to be compared with the random number MR2 for judging the type of jackpot is "non-probability variable jackpot", "probability variable jackpot A", " It is assigned to a plurality of types of jackpots, such as "probability variable big hit B" and "probability variable big hit C".

Here, the jackpot type in the present embodiment will be described using FIG. "Probability variable jackpot A" and "probability variable jackpot B" which are executed and shift to a high probability high base state, and high probability low base state in which high probability control is executed after the end of the jackpot game state but time saving control is not executed. There are set a "probability variable big hit C" to shift and a "non-probability variable big hit" to shift to a low probability high base state by executing only time saving control after the end of the big win game state.

The jackpot game state by the "probability variable jackpot A" is a normal open jackpot in which 10 rounds (so-called 10 rounds) of changing the special variable winning ball device 7 to the first state advantageous to the player are repeated. On the other hand, the big-hit game state by the "probability variable big-hit B" is a normal open big-hit game in which five rounds (so-called five rounds) are repeated to change the special variable winning ball device 7 to the first state advantageous to the player. . In addition, the big win game state by the "non-probability variable big win" is a normal open big win in which 10 rounds (so-called 10 rounds) of changing the special variable winning ball device 7 to the first state advantageous to the player are repeated. . Therefore, the "variable probability big hit A" may be called a 10 round (10R) variable probability big hit, and the "variable probability big hit B" may be called a 5 round (5R) probability variable big hit. Furthermore, in the jackpot game based on the "probability variable jackpot C", two rounds (so-called two rounds) in which the special variable winning ball device 7 is changed to the first state advantageous to the player are repeatedly executed, and a special game is played in each round. It is a high-speed opening jackpot in which the opening period of the variable winning ball device 7 is shorter than other jackpot games (for example, 0.1 seconds). In addition, during the jackpot game of any jackpot type, the variable probability control and the time saving control are not executed.

In addition, although not shown in the figure, the small winning game state in the present embodiment changes the special variable winning ball device 7 twice to the first state that is advantageous for the player, and the opening time is the same as the probability variable big win C. It is an open period (0.1 second in this embodiment). In addition, after the end of the small winning game, the game state immediately before the small winning game is taken over.

That is, in the present embodiment, when it is determined to be "probability variable big hit C" or "small hit", variable display is executed with the same variation pattern (PC1-1 shown in FIG. 11-7) In addition, as a result of the variable display, the chance number is stopped and displayed, and furthermore, the opening pattern of the special variable winning ball device 7 is the same. Since it is impossible to distinguish whether it is a ``variable probability big win C'' in which the variable probability control is executed or a ``minor win'' in which the previous game state is continued without executing the variable probability control, the variable probability big win C cannot be distinguished. After the end of the big win game or the small win game, the game can be continued while making the player expect that the variable probability control is executed.

The high-accuracy control and the time-saving control executed after the end of the big win game state of the variable probability big win A and the variable probability big win B are continuously executed until the big win occurs again after the end of the big win game state. Therefore, when the regenerated big win is the variable probability big win A or the variable probability big win B, the high probability control and the time saving control are executed again after the big win game state is ended, so that the big win game state does not go through the normal state. It becomes a so-called continuous state, which occurs continuously.

On the other hand, the time-saving control executed after the end of the jackpot gaming state by the "non-probable variable jackpot" is that the special figure game is executed a predetermined number of times (100 times in this embodiment), or the special figure of the predetermined number of times The game ends when a big win game state is entered before the game is executed.

In the setting example of the jackpot type determination table shown in FIG. 11-6 (A), depending on whether the special figure to be variably displayed is the first special figure or the second special figure, "probability variable jackpot A", " Allocation of determination values to the jackpot types of "probability variable jackpot B", "probability variable jackpot C", and "non-probability variable jackpot" is different. That is, if the special figure to be variably displayed is the first special figure, the judgment value in the predetermined range (the value in the range of "81" to "100") has a small number of rounds "variable hit B" or "variable probability While assigned to the jackpot type of "jackpot C", when the special figure displayed variably is the second special figure, the judgment value is assigned to the jackpot type of "probability variation jackpot B" or "probability variation jackpot C" Not done. With such a setting, the jackpot type is determined to be one of a plurality of types based on the establishment of the first start condition for starting the special symbol game using the first special symbol by the first special symbol display device 4A. When the jackpot type is determined to be one of a plurality of types based on the establishment of the second start condition for starting the special symbol game using the second special symbol by the second special symbol display device 4B. , the ratio of determining the jackpot type to the "probability variable big hit B" or "probability variable big hit C" with a small number of rounds can be made different. In particular, in the special game using the second special figure, it is not determined that the jackpot type is controlled to the normal opening jackpot state or the high-speed opening jackpot state with a small number of rounds by setting the jackpot type to ``probable variable jackpot B'' or ``probable variable jackpot C''. Therefore, for example, by high opening control accompanying time saving control, in a game state where game balls are likely to enter the second start winning hole formed by the variable winning ball device 6B, the frequent occurrence of a jackpot state in which there are few prize balls to be obtained is avoided. It is possible to prevent the game interest from deteriorating.

In addition, in the setting example of the jackpot type determination table shown in FIG. 11-6 (A), the allocation of the determination value for the "non-variable" jackpot type is the first special figure special figure game or the second special figure Since it is the same regardless of whether it is a non-variable jackpot or a definite variable jackpot, the probability is the same regardless of whether it is the first special game or the second special game. It is said that

Therefore, as described above, depending on whether the allocation of the determination value for "variable probability big hit B" or "variable probability big hit C" is different depending on whether it is a special game of the first special figure or a second special figure In addition, the assignment of the judgment value to the "probable variable jackpot A" also differs depending on whether it is the special game of the first special figure or the second special figure. It is set to be easier to determine in the case of the special game of the special figure than in the case of the first special figure of the special game.

In addition, even in the case of the special game of the second special figure, the judgment value in a predetermined range different from that of the special game of the first special figure is the "variable probability big hit B" or "variable probability big hit C". You may make it assign to a classification. For example, in the case of the special game of the second special, the judgment value less than that of the special game of the first special is the big hit type of "probable variable big hit B" or "probable variable big hit C". may be assigned. Alternatively, the jackpot type may be determined by referring to common table data regardless of whether the game is the special game of the first special figure or the second special figure.

FIG. 11-6 shows variation patterns in this embodiment. In the present embodiment, among the cases where the variable display result is "missing", the variable A plurality of variation patterns are prepared in advance so as to correspond to cases where the display result is a "big win" or a "minor win". In addition, the variation pattern corresponding to the case where the variable display result is "loss" and the variation display mode of the decoration pattern is "non-reach" is called a non-reach variation pattern (also referred to as "non-reach loss variation pattern"), A variation pattern corresponding to the case where the variable display result is "lost" and the variation display mode of the decoration pattern is "reach" is called a reach variation pattern (also referred to as "reach loss variation pattern"). Also, the non-reach variation pattern and the reach variation pattern are included in the loss variation pattern corresponding to the case where the variable display result is "loss". A variation pattern corresponding to the case where the variable display result is a "big hit" is called a big hit variation pattern.

The jackpot variation pattern and reach variation pattern include a normal reach variation pattern in which a normal reach reach effect is executed and a super reach variation pattern in which a super reach reach effect is executed. In the present embodiment, only one type of normal reach fluctuation pattern is provided, but the present invention is not limited to this, and similar to the super reach fluctuation pattern, normal reach α, normal reach β, . , a plurality of normal reach fluctuation patterns may be provided, and in this case, the jackpot expectation (jackpot reliability) of each normal reach fluctuation pattern of normal reach α, normal reach β, . . . may be different. Also, although super reach α and super reach β are provided as super reach variation patterns, the present invention is not limited to this, and only one type of super reach variation pattern may be used as in the normal reach variation pattern.

In addition, the variation pattern in the present embodiment includes a special winning variation pattern ( PC1-1) is also included.

As shown in FIG. 11-7, the special figure variable display time of the normal reach variation pattern in which the reach production of normal reach in the present embodiment is executed is set shorter than the super reach variation pattern. Further, among the variation patterns of super reach, the variation patterns of super reach β and super reach γ have a variable display period (60 seconds) longer than the variable display period (50 seconds) of the variation pattern of super reach α. It is

Further, in the present embodiment, as will be described later, these fluctuation patterns, for example, the type of non-reach, the type of normal reach, the type of super reach, etc., the type of the fluctuation pattern is determined first. Then, the variation pattern to be executed is not determined from the variation patterns belonging to the determined type, but is determined using only the random number MR3 for determining the variation pattern without determining these types. However, the present invention is not limited to this, for example, in addition to the random number value MR3 for determining the variation pattern, a random number value for determining the type of variation pattern is provided, and from the random value for determining the type of variation pattern After determining the type of the variation pattern first, the variation pattern to be executed may be determined from the variation patterns belonging to the determined type.

FIG. 11-8 is an explanatory diagram of the determination method of the variation pattern in this embodiment. In this embodiment, the variation pattern determination table to be selected is changed according to the game state, the display result of the variable display to be executed, and the number of pending memories.

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 11-8 (A), when the variable display result is a non-probable variable big hit in the normal game state (low base state), the big hit variation pattern determination table A is selected, and the corresponding PB1-1 (variation pattern of normal reach jackpot), PB1-2 (variation pattern of super reach α jackpot) and PB1-3 (variation pattern of super reach β jackpot) using the jackpot variation pattern determination table A Determine from In addition, when the variable display result is the probability variable jackpot A or the probability variable jackpot B in the normal game state (low base state), the jackpot variation pattern determination table B is selected, and variation is performed using the jackpot variation pattern determination table B. The pattern is determined from PB1-1 (fluctuation pattern of normal reach jackpot), PB1-2 (fluctuation pattern of super reach α jackpot) and PB1-3 (variation pattern of super reach β jackpot).

In addition, as shown in FIG. 11-8 (A), in the big hit variation pattern determination table A and the big hit variation pattern determination table B, the number of determination values assigned to PB1-1, PB1-2, and PB1-3 is different. Specifically, in the big hit variation pattern determination table A, 497 determination values are assigned to PB1-1, 300 determination values are assigned to PB1-2, and 200 determination values are assigned to PB1-3. assigned. On the other hand, in the big hit variation pattern determination table B, 250 determination values are assigned to PB1-1, 347 determination values are assigned to PB1-2, and 400 determination values are assigned to PB1-3. ing. That is, in the present embodiment, when the variable display result is the probability variable jackpot A or the probability variable jackpot B, the variation pattern of super reach is determined at a higher rate than when the variable display result is the non-probability variable jackpot. Since the super reach β is easier to determine than the super reach α, it is possible to draw the player's attention to the variation pattern in the variable display.

Also, if the variable display result is a probability variable jackpot C or a small hit, select the special hit variation pattern determination table, and use the special hit variation pattern determination table to set the variation pattern to PC1-1 (special hit variation pattern). That is, in the present embodiment, since the variable display is executed in the same variation pattern when the variable display result is the probability variable big win C and when the variable display result is the small win, the player can perform the variable display from the variation pattern. It is difficult to specify whether the result is a variable probability big win C or a small win.

In addition, when the variable display result is "loss" in the normal game state (low base state), and the number of pending memories of the variation special figure is 2 or less, select the variation pattern determination table A for loss, Using the fluctuation pattern determination table A for loss, the fluctuation pattern is PA1-1 (non-reach fluctuation pattern), PA2-1 (normal reach fluctuation pattern), PA2-2 (super reach α fluctuation pattern) and PA2 -3 (fluctuation pattern of deviation of super reach β).

Specifically, in the deviation variation pattern determination table A, 600 determination values are assigned to PA1-1, 300 determination values are assigned to PA2-1, and 90 determination values are assigned to PA2-2. 7 decision values are assigned to PA2-3.

In addition, when the variable display result is "loss" in the normal game state (low base state), and the number of pending memories of the variation special figure is 3, the variation pattern determination table B for loss is selected, and the loss Using the fluctuation pattern determination table B, the fluctuation patterns are PA1-2 (shortened fluctuation pattern of non-reach deviation), PA2-1 (variation pattern of normal reach deviation) and PA2-2 (variation pattern of super reach α deviation) and PA2 -3 (fluctuation pattern of deviation of super reach β).

Specifically, in the deviation variation pattern determination table B, 700 determination values are assigned to PA1-2, 200 determination values are assigned to PA2-1, and 90 determination values are assigned to PA2-2. 7 decision values are assigned to PA2-3.

In addition, when the variable display result is "loss" in the normal game state (low base state), and the number of pending memories of the variation special figure is 4, the variation pattern determination table C for loss is selected, and the loss Using the fluctuation pattern determination table C, the fluctuation patterns are PA1-3 (shortening fluctuation pattern of non-reach deviation), PA2-1 (variation pattern of normal reach deviation) and PA2-2 (variation pattern of super reach α deviation) and PA2 -3 (fluctuation pattern of deviation of super reach β).

Specifically, in the deviation variation pattern determination table C, 800 determination values are assigned to PA1-3, 100 determination values are assigned to PA2-1, and 90 determination values are assigned to PA2-2. 7 decision values are assigned to PA2-3.

In this way, when the variable display result is "missing" in the present embodiment, the special figure variable display time is normal based on the number of pending memories of the variable special figure being 3 or 4 etc. Since the ratio of execution of variable display is increased by the shortening variation patterns (PA1-2, PA1-3) shorter than the non-reach-out variation pattern (PA1-1), the game is prevented from being slowed down. At the same time, it is possible to shorten the period until the next variable display result becomes a big hit.

Next, as shown in FIG. 11-8 (B), when the variable display result is the non-probable variable jackpot in the high base state, the jackpot variation pattern determination table A is selected, and the jackpot variation pattern determination table A is selected. PB1-1 (variation pattern of normal reach jackpot), PB1-2 (variation pattern of super reach α jackpot), PB1-3 (variation pattern of super reach β jackpot) and PB1-4 (super reach γ It is determined from the variation pattern of the jackpot). Further, when the variable display result is the probability variable big win A or the probability variable big win B in the low base state, the big win variation pattern determination table B is selected, and the variation pattern is determined using the big win variation pattern determination table B PB1-1. Determined from (variation pattern of normal reach jackpot), PB1-2 (variation pattern of super reach α jackpot), PB1-3 (variation pattern of super reach β jackpot) and PB1-4 (variation pattern of super reach γ jackpot) .

Incidentally, as shown in FIG. 11-8 (B), in the big hit variation pattern determination table A and the big hit variation pattern determination table B, the determination values for PB1-1, PB1-2, PB1-3, and PB1-4 have different quotas. Specifically, in the big hit variation pattern determination table A, 97 determination values are assigned to PB1-1, 350 determination values are assigned to PB1-2, and 300 determination values are assigned to PB1-3. 250 decision values are assigned to PB1-4. On the other hand, in the big hit variation pattern determination table B, 50 determination values are assigned to PB1-1, 200 determination values are assigned to PB1-2, and 347 determination values are assigned to PB1-3. , PB1-4 are assigned 400 decision values. That is, in the present embodiment, when the variable display result is the probability variable jackpot A or the probability variable jackpot B, the variation pattern is super reach β or super reach γ at a higher rate than when the variable display result is the non-probability variable jackpot. Since the variation pattern is easily determined, it is possible to draw the player's attention to the variation pattern in the variable display.

Also, if the variable display result is a probability variable jackpot C or a small hit, select the special hit variation pattern determination table, and use the special hit variation pattern determination table to set the variation pattern to PC1-1 (special hit variation pattern). That is, in the present embodiment, since the variable display is executed in the same variation pattern when the variable display result is the probability variable big win C and when the variable display result is the small win, the player can perform the variable display from the variation pattern. It is difficult to specify whether the result is a variable probability big win C or a small win.

Also, if the variable display result is "loss" in the time saving state (high base state), select the variation pattern determination table D for deviation, and use the variation pattern determination table D for deviation to determine the variation pattern PA1-4 (Shortening fluctuation pattern for non-reach out of time), PA2-1 (variation pattern out of normal reach), PA2-2 (variation pattern out of super reach α) and PA2-3 (variation pattern out of super reach β) and PA2 -4 (fluctuation pattern of super reach γ deviation).

Specifically, in the deviation variation pattern determination table D, 800 determination values are assigned to PA1-4, 100 determination values are assigned to PA2-1, and 80 determination values are assigned to PA2-2. 10 decision values are assigned to PA2-3 and 7 decision values are assigned to PA2-4.

That is, in the present embodiment, if the variable display result in the high base state (time saving state) is "missing", based on the time saving state, the special figure variable display time normal non-reach deviation variation Since the rate of execution of the variable display is increased by the shortening variation pattern (PA1-4) shorter than the pattern (PA1-1), the variable display result is displayed next while preventing the game from being slowed down. It is possible to shorten the period until a big hit is achieved. Incidentally, the fluctuation patterns PA2-4 and PB1-4 (super reach γ) are fluctuation patterns that can be executed only in the high base state (time saving state).

In this case, the starting opening data indicating which of the first starting winning opening and the second starting winning opening the game ball passed through (entered) should be included in the holding information and stored in association with the holding number. .

The normal pattern reservation storage part stores the reservation information of the normal pattern game which is not yet started by the normal pattern display device 20 even though the game ball passing through the passage gate 41 is detected by the gate switch 21.例文帳に追加For example, the general pattern reservation storage unit associates the game ball with the reservation number in the order in which it passed through the passage gate 41, and determines the general pattern display result extracted from the random number circuit 104 etc. by the CPU 103 based on the passage of the game ball. is stored as reserved data until the number reaches a predetermined upper limit value (for example, "4").

For example, the effect control counter setting unit stores data indicating the count value of each of a plurality of types of counters.

The effect control buffer setting section is provided with various buffers for temporarily storing data used for controlling the progress of various effect operations. For example, the effect control buffer setting unit stores data indicating buffer values in each of a plurality of types of buffers.

In this embodiment, the buffer number 1-0 corresponding to the variable display being executed by the first special figure reserved storage, the buffer number 1-1 to buffer number 1 corresponding to the reserved storage 1 to 4 of the first special figure -4, buffer number 2-0 corresponding to the variable display being executed by the second special figure pending storage, buffer number 2-1 to buffer number 2-4 corresponding to the second special figure pending storage 1 to 4 The data constituting the receive command buffer at the time of start winning, which is associated with each, is set with entries that can store data such as start winning designation commands, symbol designation commands, variable category commands, pending memory number notification commands, etc. It is stored in a predetermined area of the effect control buffer setting section. When there is a start prize to the first start prize mouth or the second start prize mouth, start mouth prize designation command (first start mouth prize designation command or second start mouth prize designation command), pattern designation command, variation category designation Four commands, a command and a pending memory number notification command (first pending memory number notification command or second pending memory number notification command), are transmitted from the main board 11 to the effect control board 12 as one set. Then, the four commands of the start winning designation command, the pattern designation command, the variable category designation command, and the pending storage number notification command, which constitute one set, are the buffer numbers corresponding to the starting gate winning designation command and the pending storage number notification command. is stored in the entry of

The storage contents of the storage areas (entries) corresponding to the buffer numbers 1-0 to 1-4 corresponding to the first special figure are the highest reserved storage (buffer number "1-1") when the start condition is satisfied. ) is shifted upward one by one as will be described later. , It is designed to be cleared in the special figure per waiting process that is executed when ending the variable display. Similarly, the storage contents of the storage areas (entries) corresponding to the buffer numbers 2-0 to 1-4 corresponding to the second special figure are the highest pending storage (buffer number "2 -1"), the variable display of the buffer number "2-0" is shifted upward one by one as will be described later, and the buffer number "2-0" storing the content of the pending memory for which the start condition is satisfied. The stored contents are cleared in the special figure per waiting process executed when ending the variable display.

The effect control CPU 120, at the time of start winning to the first start winning port, sends a command at the beginning of the empty entry of the buffer number 1-1 to buffer number 1-4 of the receive command buffer at the time of start winning (the lowest buffer number entry), and at the time of the start winning to the second start winning opening, store from the head (the entry with the smallest buffer number) of the empty entries among the buffer numbers 2-1 to 2-4. . At the time of starting winning, from the starting opening winning designation command to the reservation storage number notification command are sequentially transmitted. Therefore, if the command is received, the starting entrance winning designation command , pattern designation command, variation category designation command, and reserved storage number notification command.

The command stored in the received command buffer at the time of start winning is the entry (buffer number "1-0" or "2- 0”) is deleted and stored in the entry (entry corresponding to buffer number “1-1” or “2-1”) corresponding to the pending storage of the variable display to be started. and the stored contents of entries after the pending storage of the starting variable representation are shifted. For example, when the variable display of the decoration pattern of the first special figure reservation storage is completed, each command stored in the buffer number "1-0" is deleted and stored in the buffer number "1-1" Each command stored in the area corresponding to the buffer number "1-2" is shifted to the area corresponding to the buffer number "1-1". commands stored in areas corresponding to buffer numbers "1-3" and "1-4" are shifted to areas corresponding to buffer numbers "1-2" and "1-3". be done. Therefore, the buffer number "0" becomes an area (entry) for storing each command related to the pending storage that is variably displayed at that time.

(Production during Super Reach)
Here, the effect during super reach will be described with reference to FIG. 11-9. FIG. 11-9 is a diagram showing execution periods of various effects in normal reach and super reach.

As shown in FIG. 11-9, in the variable display of decorative symbols based on the normal reach fluctuation pattern or the super reach fluctuation pattern, the effect control CPU 120 sets the variable display mode to the normal reach display mode after starting the variable display. Based on this, a normal reach effect is performed as a variable display effect. In addition, in the super reach variation pattern, after executing the normal reach effect, the super reach effect (weak super reach effect and strong super reach effect) is performed as a variable display effect based on the variable display mode being the super reach display mode, and the super reach effect is performed. After finishing the ready-to-win production, the variable display of the decoration pattern is ended.

In addition, the effect control CPU 120, in the normal reach effect in the normal reach variation pattern or the super reach variation pattern (super reach α, β, γ), as an effect different from the variable display effect, the possibility (expectation) that the variable display result will be a big hit It is possible to execute the announcement effect A or the announcement effect B that announces the degree). In addition, in the normal ready-to-win effect in the super ready-to-win variation pattern, it is possible to execute a developing effect A for notifying that the effect will develop into a weak super ready-to-win effect (contents advantageous to the player).

In addition, the effect control CPU 120 is a development effect B that informs that the weak super reach effect in the super reach variation pattern (super reach α, β, γ) develops into a strong super reach effect (advantageous content for the player). It is possible to execute a development suggestive production that suggests the possibility of being executed, and in the weak super reach production in the super reach fluctuation pattern (super reach β, γ), develop into a strong super reach production (advantageous for the player content) can be executed.

In addition, the effect control CPU 120 can execute a determined effect to notify that the variable display result will be a big hit or lose in the strong super reach effect in the super reach variation pattern (super reach β, γ). .

In this way, in the normal reach loss variation pattern, the normal reach production does not develop into a weak super reach production and becomes a big hit or a loss, and in the super reach fluctuation pattern (super reach α, β, γ), the normal reach production is a weak super reach production. In the super reach variation pattern (super reach β, γ), the weak super reach production develops into a strong super reach production.

That is, super reach α is a weak super reach with higher expectations than normal reach, and super reach β and γ are strong super reach with higher expectations than weak super reach (jackpot expectation; normal reach < super reach α<super reach β<super reach γ).

In addition, in normal reach and super reach α, β, γ, different types of normal reach effects and super reach effects may be executed, and common or at least partially similar types of super reach effects may be performed. It may be configured to be executed. Also, the types of super reach are not limited to the above three types, and may be one type, two types, or four or more types.

In the characteristic portion 241SG, in the above-described advance notice effects A and B, development effects A and B, development suggestive effects, and final effects, the mounted movable body 32, which is a structure, is moved, and a first pseudo movable body display described later is performed. It is possible to move and display the second pseudo movable body display. Therefore, before describing the specific contents of each effect, the mounted movable body 32, the first pseudo-movable body display, and the second pseudo-movable body display will be described.

(Flow of pachinko machine development)
First, in order to understand how the pachinko game machine 1 is equipped with the mounted movable body 32, the first pseudo-movable body display, the second pseudo-movable body display, etc. as described above, the development of the pachinko machine 1 An outline of the flow of is described with reference to FIGS. 11-12. 11-12 are explanatory diagrams showing an outline of the development flow of pachinko gaming machines.

As shown in Fig. 11-12, when the development of a given pachinko game machine (for example, pachinko game machine 1) starts, the first step is to clarify what to convey to the game parlors and players and what to make them feel. A written proposal is created (step 241SGS001). Specifically, the game contents, highlights, specs, game flow, production structure such as reach, board structure, movable bodies (structures), etc. are considered.

Next, based on the proposal, a prototype (primary prototype, design mockup) of the board surface (game board), images and materials that can be used to visualize variable displays, specifications confirmation tables, and the like are created (step 241SGS002). At the stage of creating this prototype, for example, it was planned to mount multiple movable bodies, but there were reasons why multiple movable bodies could not be mounted (for example, lack of space such as interference with other movable bodies, cost, etc.) durability) may occur.

Next, images such as variable display and effects are created (step 241SGS003). Here, for the production image, based on the design and operation of the movable body that could not be mounted due to the problem that occurred in step 241SGS002, a pseudo movable body display image that imitates this non-mounted movable body is created. . In addition, since the movement display in the pseudo movable body display is less impactful than the case of moving the non-mounted movable body, for example, when the movement display is stopped, the reaction display operation and the movement display speed It is often displayed deformed (exaggerated or highlighted).

Then, a prototype (secondary prototype) of the board surface (game board) including images such as variable display and effects is created, and the variable display, core effects, movements of movable bodies, etc. are confirmed (step 241SGS004), If there is no problem, the board surface (game board) is produced (step 241SGS005).

In this way, by mounting a plurality of movable bodies capable of providing an impactful presentation to the player, the presentation effect can be enhanced and the presentation can be diversified. It is often difficult to mount multiple Therefore, based on the design and operation of a movable body that could not be mounted, a moving display of a pseudo-movable body display simulating this non-mounted movable body is often used.

Hereinafter, in the pachinko game machine 1 as the characteristic part 241SG, it was planned to mount a plurality of movable bodies in the development stage, but due to the various problems described above, one movable body ( For example, the mounting movable body 32) was determined to be mounted, and the other movable bodies (for example, the first non-mounting movable body M100 and the second non-mounting movable body M200) were not determined to be mounted and were not mounted. Instead of the first non-mounting movable body M100 and the second non-mounting movable body M200, the movement display of the first pseudo movable body display simulating the first non-mounting movable body M100 and the second non-mounting movable body M200 are simulated. It is assumed that the movement display of the second pseudo movable body display is adopted.

In the above description, the pseudo-movable body display is exemplified as a substitute for the first non-mounted movable body M100 and the second non-mounted movable body M200, which are finally not mounted. It is not limited, and although it was possible to mount a movable body, there are cases where pseudo-movable body display is used to diversify the production. It is also possible to use a pseudo-movable object display simulating a movable object that is not planned to be installed in the development stage (for example, a virtual movable object or a movable object that is or will be installed in another model).

(Mounting movable body 32)
The mounting movable body 32 will be described below with reference to FIGS. 11-13. 11 to 13, (A) is a diagram showing a movement mode of the mounted movable body, and (B) is a diagram for explaining a situation in which the mounted movable body is lifted.

As shown in FIG. 11-13(A), the mounting movable body 32 is composed of a performance section 32A, which is formed in a substantially trapezoidal shape when viewed from the front and decorated on the front surface, and a mechanism section 32B. The left and right sides of the mechanism portion 32B extending to the left and right sides are respectively supported by the driving mechanisms 201L and 201R arranged on the left and right sides of the image display device 5, whereby the upper origin position (FIG. 11-13 (A )) and an effect position below the origin position (the position indicated by the two-dot chain line in FIGS. 11-13A). The mechanism section 32B is a transmission member that transmits the power of the drive mechanisms 201L and 201R to the effect section 32A.

The drive mechanisms 201L and 201R include mounted movable body motors 202L and 202R, drive gears 203L and 203R fixed to the drive shafts of the mounted movable body motors 202L and 202R, and driven gears 204L and 204R meshing with the drive gears 203L and 203R. , driven gears 204L and 204R fixed to the lower ends of rotating shafts 205L and 205R directed in the vertical direction, movable bodies 206L and 206R inserted into the rotating shafts 205L and 205R, and mounting movable body 32 are held at the origin position. It mainly has mounting movable body solenoids 207L and 207R that can be mounted, and a mounted movable body LED 208 (see FIG. 11-2) that is built in the rendering section 32A and that can emit a light emitting section 208A consisting of the letter "X".

The mounting movable body 32 has left and right end portions (guided portions) of the mechanism portion 32B inserted (guided) into the rotating shafts 205L and 205R so as to be movable in the vertical direction, and engaged with the mounting movable body solenoids 207L and 207R. is held at the origin position. When the mounting movable body solenoids 207L and 207R are turned on and the locked state is released while the mounting movable body 32 is held at the origin position, the mounting movable body 32 is dropped from the origin position by its own weight, and left and right ends of the mechanism section 32B. contacts the moving bodies 206L and 206R to restrict downward movement, thereby stopping at the performance position.

A spiral groove portion 205A is formed on the outer circumference of the rotating shafts 205L and 205R, while a locking portion (not shown) that can be locked to the groove portion 205A is formed on the inner peripheral surface of the moving bodies 206L and 206R. and rotation around the rotation shafts 205L and 205R is restricted, so that the rotation shafts 205L and 205R can be moved forward and backward by the mounted movable body motors 202L and 202R. It is said that Therefore, the mounting movable body 32 can fall from the origin position to the rendering position by its own weight, and after falling, as shown in FIG. , 205R are rotated to lift the movable bodies 206L and 206R, the moving bodies 206L and 206R are lifted from the performance position to the origin position, and are held at the origin position by mounted movable body solenoids 207L and 207R.

(First pseudo movable display and first non-mounted movable body)
Next, the first pseudo movable display and the first non-mounted movable body will be described with reference to FIGS. 11-14. 11 to 14, (A) is a diagram showing the movement display mode of the display of the first pseudo movable body, and (B) is a diagram showing the movement mode of the first non-mounted movable body.

The first pseudo movable object display Z100 shown in FIG. 11-14(A) was planned to be installed in the pachinko game machine 1 as shown in FIG. 11-14(B), but was not installed due to various circumstances. It is an image imitating the first non-mounting movable body M100.

The first non-mounting movable body M100 which is not mounted on the pachinko game machine 1 is composed of a performance section M100A formed in a substantially rectangular shape in a front view and decorated on the front surface, and a mechanism section M100B. The left side of the mechanism portion M100B extending to the left is supported by the drive mechanism M101 arranged on the left side of the image display device 5, so that the upper first origin position (2 in FIG. 11-14(B)) 11-14(B)) and a first rendering position below the first origin position (the position indicated by the solid line in FIG. 11-14(B)).

The drive mechanism M101 includes a movable motor M102, a drive gear M103 fixed to the drive shaft of the movable motor M102, a driven gear M104 meshing with the drive gear M103, and a driven gear M104 fixed to the lower end facing the vertical direction. A rotating shaft M105, a movable body solenoid M107 capable of holding the first non-mounting movable body M100 at the first origin position, a moving body M106 inserted into the rotating shaft M105, and built in the effect section M100A, as viewed from the front. It mainly has a non-mounted movable body LED (not shown) capable of emitting a circular light emitting portion M108A.

In addition, the production section M100A has four production movable sections M110A to M110D which are arranged around the light emitting section M108A, and which are arranged in the vicinity of the light emitting section M108A. 11-14(B), and a second effect state in which the effect movable parts M110A to M110D are radially separated from the light emitting part M108A.

The first non-mounting movable body M100 is inserted (guided) into the rotating shaft M105 so that the left end (guided part) of the mechanism part M100B is movable in the vertical direction, and is locked by the movable body solenoid M107. 1 It is held at the origin position. When the movable body solenoid M107 is turned on while being held at the first origin position and the locked state is released, the first non-mounting movable body M100 drops from the first origin position by its own weight, and the mechanism part M100B. The left and right ends of the contact with the moving body M106 restricts its downward movement, thereby stopping at the first effect position.

A helical groove portion M105A is formed on the outer circumference of the rotating shaft M105, while a locking portion (not shown) that can be locked to the groove portion M105A is formed on the inner peripheral surface of the moving body M106, and Since the rotation about the rotating shaft M105 is restricted, the movable body motor M102 rotates the rotating shaft M105 in the forward and reverse directions so that it can move in the vertical direction. Therefore, the first non-mounting movable body M100 can fall from the first origin position to the first rendering position by its own weight. By raising it, it rises from the first effect position to the first specific origin position, and is held at the first origin position by the movable body solenoid M107.

As shown in FIG. 11-14(A), the first pseudo movable body display Z100 is an image simulating the first non-mounted movable body M100, and an effect display part Z100A corresponding to the effect part M100A and a mechanism part It has a mechanism display section Z100B corresponding to M100B and a light emitting display section Z108A corresponding to the light emitting section M108A. Then, it is possible to move and display in the vertical direction between the first initial display position corresponding to the first origin position and the first effect display position corresponding to the first effect position (see FIG. 11-16(B)). ), and can be vertically moved and displayed between a first initial display position corresponding to a position different from the first origin position and a first effect display position corresponding to a position different from the first effect position (Fig. 11-17(A)). In addition, the production section M100A has production movable display parts Z110A to Z110D corresponding to the production movable parts M110A to M110D, and a first production display state corresponding to the first production state and a second production display state corresponding to the second production state. It is possible to change to the production display state.

(Second pseudo movable display and second non-mounted movable body)
Next, the second pseudo movable display and the second non-mounted movable body will be described with reference to FIGS. 11-15. 11-15, (A) is a diagram showing a movement display mode of the display of the second pseudo movable body, and (B) is a diagram showing a movement mode of the second non-mounted movable body.

The second pseudo movable body display Z200 shown in FIG. 11-15(A) was planned to be installed in the pachinko game machine 1 as shown in FIGS. The image simulates the second non-mounted movable body M200 that is mounted.

Regarding the second non-mounting movable body M200, two mounting plans with different operation modes at the beginning of development (for example, mounting plan 1 shown in FIG. 11-15 (B) and FIG. 11-15 (C) Mounting plan 2) was devised, but for the convenience of development, the second non-mounting movable body itself could not be mounted. Display and moving display corresponding to mounting plan 2 are made executable.

As shown in FIGS. 11-15 (B) and (C), the second non-mounted movable body M200, which is not mounted on the pachinko game machine 1, is formed in a circular shape in front view and decorated on the front surface. and a mechanism portion M200B, and the lower end of the mechanism portion M100B is supported by a first drive mechanism M201A arranged below the image display device 5 (mounting plan 1: FIG. 11-15 ( B)), and a second rendering device (mounting plan 2: see FIG. 11-15(C)) in which the upper end of the mechanism portion M100B is supported by a second driving mechanism M201B arranged above the image display device 5. is incorporated in each of the

As shown in FIG. 11-15(B), the first drive mechanism M201A includes a movable body motor (not shown) provided on the back side of the base member M202, and a rotating body rotated by the movable body motor (not shown). It has M203 and a guide rail M204 that guides the production part M200A so as to be movable in the vertical direction. One end of the mechanism portion M200B is rotatably supported on the base member M202 about a rotation shaft facing in the front-rear direction. A long hole M206 is formed into which it can be inserted.

Therefore, the second non-mounting movable body M200 driven by the first drive mechanism M201A rotates the rotating body M203 by a movable body motor (not shown) and rotates the mechanism part M200B around the rotation axis, The first specific origin position below (the origin position indicated by the two-dot chain line in FIG. 11-15 (B)) and the first specific effect position above the first specific origin position (indicated by the solid line in FIG. 11-15 (B)) position).

In addition, the effect part M200A includes a rotating part M207 that is circular in front view, and a non-mounted movable body LED (not shown) that can emit light from a plurality of (for example, five) light emitting parts M208A to M208E provided in the rotating part M207. , and while the rotating part M207 rotates, the non-mounted movable body LED (not shown) lights up, and the light emitting parts M208A to M208E can emit light in a plurality of colors (for example, 7 colors). there is

11-15(C), the second drive mechanism M201B includes a movable motor M212, a drive gear M213 fixed to the drive shaft of the movable motor M212, and a driven gear meshing with the drive gear M213. It mainly has M214 and a rotation shaft M215 directed in the left-right direction to which the driven gear M214 is fixed at the left end. Further, a spiral groove portion M215A is formed on the outer circumference of the rotating shaft M215, while a mechanism portion M200B extending upward from the effect portion M200A is provided on the inner peripheral surface thereof so as to be engaged with the groove portion M215A. A portion (not shown) is formed, and rotation about the rotation axis M215 is restricted.

Therefore, the second non-mounting movable body M200 driven by the second drive mechanism M201B rotates the rotating shaft M215 forward and backward by the movable body motor M212, thereby moving the left second specific origin position (FIG. 11-15 (C ) and the second specific effect position on the right side (the position indicated by the solid line in FIG. 11-15 (C)), and the second specific origin It can be stopped at a second intermediate effect position between the position and the second specific effect position.

As shown in FIG. 11-15(A), the second pseudo movable body display Z200 is an image that imitates the second non-mounting movable body M200. It has a mechanism display section Z200B corresponding to M200B, a rotating display section Z207 corresponding to the rotating section M207, and light emitting display sections Z208A to Z208E corresponding to the light emitting sections M208A to M208E.

In addition, at the beginning of development, we planned to install a full-color LED as a non-mounted movable body LED (not shown), but due to cost reasons, we were forced to install a single color LED, but the second pseudo movable body display Z200 As a result, the light emitting display portions Z208A to Z208E can emit light in a plurality of colors (for example, seven colors) without considering the cost.

Then, it is possible to move and display in the vertical direction between the first specific initial display position corresponding to the first specific origin position and the first specific effect display position corresponding to the first specific effect position (FIG. 11-16). (C)), it is possible to move and display in the horizontal direction between a second specific initial display position corresponding to the second specific origin position and a second specific effect display position corresponding to the second specific effect position (Fig. 11-17(B)).

Next, the movement mode of the mounting movable body 32 and the movement display mode of the first pseudo-movable body display Z100 and the second pseudo-movable body display Z200 will be described with reference to FIGS. 11-16 and 11-17. 11-16, (A) is the movable range of the non-mounted movable body, (B) is the movement display area of the first pseudo movable body display, and (C) is the movement display area of the second pseudo movable body display. It is a diagram. 11-17, (A) is a diagram showing the specific movement display area of the first pseudo-moving object display, and (B) is a diagram showing the specific movement display area of the second pseudo-moving object display.

As shown in FIG. 11-16(A), the mounted movable body 32 has an origin position where the lower part of the effect part 32A overlaps with the upper part of the display area of the image display device 5, and the approximate position of the display area of the image display device 5. It is movable in the vertical direction between an effect position where the effect part 32A and the mechanism part 32B overlap at the center, and the movement distance from the origin position to the effect position is L1.

As shown in FIG. 11-16(B), the first pseudo movable object display Z100 includes a first initial display position where the lower part of the effect display section Z100A is displayed at the upper position of the display area of the image display device 5, A first effect display position in which the effect display section Z100A and the mechanism display section Z100B are displayed at a position substantially lower in the center of the display area of the image display device 5 can be vertically moved and displayed, and the first initial display is performed. The movement display distance from the position to the first effect display position is L2.

As shown in FIG. 11-17(A), the first pseudo movable object display Z100 is a first specific initial display position where the upper part of the effect display section Z100A is displayed at the lower position of the display area of the image display device 5. , and a first specific effect display position where the effect display section Z100A and the mechanism display section Z100B are displayed at a substantially central upper position of the display area of the image display device 5, and a first specific effect display position. A specific movement display distance from the specific initial display position to the first specific effect display position is L2A.

In this manner, the first pseudo movable object display Z100, similarly to the first non-mounting movable object M100, is the first initial display position corresponding to the first origin position and the first effect display position corresponding to the first effect position. In addition to being able to move and display the movable range between the two in the vertical direction, it is also possible to move specifically between a second initial display position that does not correspond to the first origin position and a second effect display position that does not correspond to the first effect position. The range can be moved and displayed in the vertical direction.

Next, as shown in FIG. 11-16(C), the second pseudo-movable object display Z200 is a first specific initial stage in which the lower part of the effect display section Z200A is displayed at the upper position of the display area of the image display device 5. and a first specific effect display position where the effect display section Z200A and the mechanism display section Z200B are displayed at approximately the center position of the display area of the image display device 5, and can be displayed by moving vertically between the display position and the display position, and The movement display distance from the first specific initial display position to the first specific effect display position is L3.

Further, as shown in FIG. 11-17(B), the second pseudo-movable object display Z200 is a second specific display in which the right portion of the effect display portion Z200A is displayed at the left portion position of the display area of the image display device 5. It is possible to move and display in the horizontal direction between the initial display position and a second specific effect display position where the effect display section Z200A and the mechanism display section Z200B are displayed at approximately the center position of the display area of the image display device 5. , the moving display distance from the second specific initial display position to the second specific effect display position is L3A.

In this way, the second pseudo movable body display Z200, like the second non-mounting movable body M200, has a first specific initial display position corresponding to the first specific origin position and a first specific effect corresponding to the first specific effect position. In addition to being able to move and display the movable range between the display positions in the vertical direction, a second specific initial display position that does not correspond to the first specific origin position and a second specific effect display that does not correspond to the first specific effect position A specific movable range between the positions can be moved and displayed in the horizontal direction.

Further, the movement display distance L2 of the first pseudo movable object display Z100 is longer than the movement distance L1 of the mounted movable body 32, and the movement display distance L3 of the second pseudo movable object display Z200 is the movement distance L1 of the mounted movable body 32. (L2>L1>L3). Further, the movement display distance L2A of the first pseudo movable object display Z100 is longer than the movement distance L1 of the mounted movable body 32, and the movement display distance L3A of the second pseudo movable object display Z200 is the movement distance L1 of the mounted movable body 32. or longer than the movement display distance L2A (L3A>L2A>L1).

Thus, the first pseudo-movable object display Z100 and the second pseudo-movable object display Z200 can move and display movement display distances (L2, L2A, L3A) longer than the movement distance L1 of the mounted movable body 32. Therefore, it is possible to realize an effect with more impact than the mounted movable body 32.

As shown in FIGS. 11-16, the first pseudo-movable object display Z100 and the second pseudo-movable object display Z200 are composed of effect display portions Z100A and Z200A and mechanism display portions Z100B and Z200B. is extended to the edge of the display area of the image display device 5, so that the driving mechanism M101, the first driving mechanism M201A, and the second driving mechanism M201B, which are arranged on the side of the image display device 5, produce effects. Since the display parts Z100A and Z200A appear to be supported, it is possible to express moving display more realistically.

That is, the pseudo-movable object display (pseudo-movable object image) refers to movable objects such as movable objects mounted on the pachinko game machine 1, movable objects not mounted, virtual movable objects, etc., as structures that can be operated by the drive mechanism. It is an imitation display, and is different from an image without a mechanism display section, such as the development notification image Z300 (see FIG. 11-25(H)).

In addition, display in which a part of the display mode is different from the modeled movable body, display in a mode that cannot be realized with the modeled movable body (for example, deformed display, deformation display, etc.), movement display (for example, high-speed movement display, etc.) ) is possible.

In addition, the pseudo-moving object display (pseudo-moving object image) may be an image or moving image created by a computer or the like, or an image or moving image of an actually created movable object as a structure. There may be. Furthermore, when the pseudo-moving object display is displayed, a sound effect that is the same as or similar to the sound effect that is output when the movable object is moving or the impact sound that is generated when the moving object is stopped is output, or the pseudo-moving object display is produced. When the position is reached, the vibration motor 61 vibrates the push button 31B, the stick controller 31A, or the like, or the loud bass is output from the speakers 8L, 8R to generate a pseudo-impact. It is possible to provide a performance to the player.

Next, details of various presentations using the mounted movable body 32, the first pseudo-movable body display Z100, and the second pseudo-movable body display Z200 will be described with reference to FIGS. 11-10. FIGS. 11-10 are diagrams for explaining the contents and configurations of various effects in super ready-to-win.

(Notice production A)
As shown in FIG. 11-10, the advance notice effect A can be executed when the base state is low, and the second pseudo movable body display Z200 is displayed at the first specific initial display position, and then the first specific effect is executed. After being moved to the display position and displayed, the light-emitting display parts Z208A to Z208E are light-emitting and displayed in a color corresponding to the determined effect pattern, suggesting the possibility (expectation) of a big win.

Further, the second pseudo movable body display Z200 moved from the first specific initial display position to the first specific effect display position is erased after being moved from the first specific effect display position to the first specific initial display position. (See Figures 11-25 (C) to (F)).

Specifically, when the pattern PYA-1 is determined in the advance notice effect A type determination processing of step 241SGS278A, which will be described later, the light emitting display portions Z208A to Z208E are displayed in white, and when the pattern PYA-2 is determined, the light is emitted. The display portions Z208A to Z208E are displayed in blue, and when the pattern PYA-3 is determined, the light emitting display portions Z208A to Z208E are displayed in green, and when the pattern PYA-4 is determined, the light emitting display portions Z208A to Z208E are displayed in green. displayed in red. Therefore, the luminous display color of the luminous display portions Z208A to Z208E with the highest degree of expectation for a big hit is red. The color of the emitted light can be changed in various ways, and when a big win is confirmed, the light may be emitted in gold, rainbow color, or the like.

(Notice production B)
The advance notice effect B can be executed in the high base state, and the first pseudo movable body display Z100 changes from the first initial display position to the first effect display position or from the second initial display position to the second effect display position. The variable display result is a big hit depending on whether the second pseudo movable body display Z200 is moved and displayed from the second specific initial display position to the second intermediate effect display position or the second specific effect display position. It suggests the possibility (expectation) of becoming

Also, the first pseudo movable body display Z100 moved and displayed at the first effect display position is erased without being moved and displayed from the first effect display position to the first initial display position (FIG. 11-34 (A) ~ (C) reference). Also, the first pseudo movable body display Z100 moved and displayed at the second effect display position is erased without being moved and displayed from the second effect display position to the second initial display position (FIG. 11-34 (D) (See (F)).

Also, the second pseudo movable body display Z200 moved and displayed at the second intermediate effect display position is erased without being moved and displayed from the second intermediate effect display position to the second specific initial display position (FIG. 11-33). (A) to (C)). In addition, the second pseudo movable body display Z200 moved and displayed at the second specific effect display position is erased without being moved and displayed from the second specific effect display position to the second specific initial display position (FIG. 11-33). (D)-(F)).

Specifically, when the pattern PYB-1 is determined in the advance notice effect B type determination process of step 241SGS278A to be described later, the second pseudo movable object display Z200 moves from the second specific initial display position to the second intermediate effect display position. When the pattern PYB-2 is determined, the second pseudo movable body display Z200 is moved and displayed from the second specific initial display position to the second specific effect display position, and when the pattern PYB-3 is determined, the 1 pseudo movable body display Z100 is moved and displayed from the first initial display position to the first effect display position, and when the pattern PYB-4 is determined, the first pseudo movable body display Z100 is moved from the second initial display position to the second effect display position. Moves to display position. Therefore, when the first pseudo-moving body display Z100 is displayed in a moving manner, the expectation for a big hit is higher than when the second pseudo-moving body display Z200 is displayed in a moving manner. The pseudo movable body display Z100 becomes a pattern in which it is moved and displayed from the second initial display position to the second effect display position.

In addition, the second pseudo movable body display Z200 moves from the first initial display position to the first effect display position or from the second initial display position to the second effect display position, and the second pseudo movable body display Z200 moves from the second initial display position to the second effect display position. It is faster than moving and displaying from the specific initial display position to the second intermediate effect display position or the second specific effect display position.

(Development production A)
In development effect A, development to weak super reach is announced by moving (falling) the mounting movable body 32 from the origin position to the effect position (see FIG. 11-25 (H)). The mounting movable body 32 moved from the origin position to the performance position rises from the performance position to the origin position and returns after the lapse of a predetermined time.

More specifically, when execution is determined in the development effect A type determination processing of step 241SGS278B described later, the mounting movable body 32 falls from the origin position to the effect position at the effect start timing, thereby developing into weak super reach. is reported (see FIG. 11-25(H)). On the other hand, when non-execution is determined, the mounting movable body 32 does not fall from the origin position at the timing of starting the effect, and the development to weak super reach is notified by displaying the development notification image Z300 on the image display device 5. (See Figure 11-25 (G)). In other words, the fact that non-execution is determined in the development effect A type determination processing means that the effect pattern is determined to notify the development to weak super reach by displaying the development notification image Z300 without dropping the mounted movable body 32. is.

Note that the development notification image Z300 is an image (display) imitating the mounted movable body 32, but like the first pseudo-movable body display Z100 and the second pseudo-movable body display Z200, it is displayed in the same way as the movable body. Unlike the pseudo-movable object display that is displayed moving, this is an image (display) that imitates only the effect part 32A, and is displayed in a display mode different from the movement of the mounted movable object 32 . For example, at the production start timing, it is displayed at the production display position corresponding to the production position of the mounted movable body 32 from the beginning without moving display.

(development suggestion production)
The development suggestive effect can be executed before the development effect B is executed, and the second pseudo movable body display Z200 is displayed at the first specific initial display position and then moved and displayed to the first specific effect display position. After that, light is emitted based on detection of a repeated operation of the push button 31B by the player during an operation valid period during which the repeated operation of the push button 31B (an operation in which the detection signal of the push sensor 35B is detected multiple times within a predetermined period) is valid. When the display portions Z208A to Z208E change to the light-emitting display color corresponding to the determined effect pattern, it is suggested that the display color of the character image Z310, which will be described later, that is, the development effect B may be executed.

Further, in the characteristic portion 241SG, an operation promotion image (for example, an image simulating the push button 31B, etc.) that promotes the continuous pressing operation of the push button 31B in the operation effective period in which the continuous pressing operation of the push button 31B in the development suggestion effect is valid. is not displayed on the image display device 5, and the button LED 62 (see FIG. 11-2) built into the push button 31B is turned on to promote repeated pressing of the push button 31B. However, the image display device 5 may display an operation prompting display that encourages repeated pressing of the push button 31B during the valid period of operation.

In addition, the second pseudo-movable object display Z200 moved from the first specific initial display position to the first specific effect display position is a character image Z310 related to the model that is displayed in the first specific display area of the image display device 5. After being displayed so as to overlap (act on) the second pseudo movable body display Z200 in the area including the effect display position, it is erased without being moved and displayed from the first specific effect display position to the first specific initial display position. (See Figures 11-26(A) to (J) and Figure 11-27(A)).

More specifically, when the pattern PS-1 is determined in the step 241SGS278B, which will be described later, the pattern PS-1 is determined. When the pattern PS-2 is determined, the light-emitting display sections Z208A to Z208E change in order from white to blue in response to repeated pressing of the push button 31B, and when the pattern PS-3 is determined, the light-emitting display sections Z208A to Z208E. changes in the order of white→blue→green in response to repeated pressing of the push button 31B. When the pattern PS-4 is determined, the light-emitting display sections Z208A to Z208E change from white to blue in response to the repeated pressing of the push button 31B. Changes from green to red. Therefore, the final light-emitting display color of the light-emitting display portions Z208A to Z208E having the highest degree of expectation for execution of the development effect B is red.

In addition, the emission color and the change pattern of the emission color can be changed in various ways. For example, the emission color may be changed from white to red without changing to blue or green, or the emission display color may be a color other than white from the beginning. . In addition, the lighting number of the plurality of light-emitting display parts Z208A to Z208E is increased in accordance with the continuous hitting operation of the push button 31B, so that the execution expectation of the development effect B is higher when the lighting number is larger than when the lighting number is small. may Further, the degree of expectation may differ depending on the color of emitted light and the number of emitted lights.

Further, in the characteristic portion 241SG, if the continuous pressing operation of the push button 31B is not detected during the operation valid period or the continuous pressing operation amount is small, even if any of the patterns PS-2 to PS-4 is determined, has exemplified a mode in which the light emitting display color does not change according to each of the patterns PS-2 to PS-4, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the continuous pressing operation of the push button 31B is not detected during the operation valid period. Alternatively, even if the amount of continuous hit operation is small, the light emitting display color may be changed according to the determined patterns PS-2 to PS-4 at the timing when the valid operation period expires.

In addition, the character image Z310 displayed after the valid operation period ends is displayed in a color corresponding to the light-emitting display color of the light-emitting display portions Z208A to Z208E when the valid operation period ends. there is

Note that the character image Z310 of different types may be displayed according to the light-emitting display colors of the light-emitting display sections Z208A to Z208E when the valid operation period expires. Further, even if the light emission display color of the light emission display portions Z208A to Z208E does not change even though one of the patterns PS-2 to PS-4 is determined as described above, the determined patterns PS-2 to PS-4 A character image Z310 (a color different from the light-emitting display colors of the light-emitting display portions Z208A to Z208E) may be displayed. Further, the light emission display color of the light emission display portions Z208A to Z208E may be changed to the same color as the character image Z310 at the timing when the character image Z310 is displayed.

(Development production B)
Developing effect B is that the second pseudo-movable object display Z200 moves and displays from the first specific initial display position to the first specific effect display position, thereby developing into a strong super reach effect and executing a determined effect (game Advantageous content for the user) is notified (see FIG. 11-27(D)). Also, the second pseudo movable body display Z200 moved and displayed at the first specific effect display position is erased without being moved and displayed from the first specific effect display position to the first specific initial display position (Fig. 11-27 ( D) to (F)).

Further, when the second pseudo movable body display Z200 is erased without being moved and displayed from the first specific effect display position to the first specific initial display position, the reach title is displayed in the display area including the first specific effect display position. By displaying the image Z51 so as to overlap the second pseudo movable body display Z200 in a manner indicating that the display of the image is started, the variable display result becomes a big win (controlled to a big win game state). ) is suggested.

Specifically, when execution is determined in the development effect B type determination processing of step 241 SGS280, which will be described later, the second pseudo movable body display Z200 moves from the first specific initial display position to the first specific effect display position at the effect start timing. By moving and displaying, the development to strong super reach is announced (see FIG. 11-27(D)). On the other hand, when non-execution is determined, the second pseudo movable body display Z200 is not moved and displayed from the first specific initial display position to the first specific effect display position at the effect start timing, and the reach title image Z51 is displayed on the image display device 5. is displayed in a ready state manner to announce the development to strong super reach (see FIG. 11-27(C)). In other words, when non-execution is determined in the development effect B type determination processing, the ready-to-reach title image Z51 is displayed in a state of preparation without moving and displaying the second pseudo-movable body display Z200, and the strong super-reach is achieved. It is to determine the effect pattern that informs the development of.

(Decision production)
The final effect is an effect to settle the battle confrontation between the ally character and the enemy character executed in the super ready-to-win effect, and notify whether or not the game will be controlled to the jackpot game state. Specifically, for example, after displaying the ally character giving the final blow to the enemy character, a display prompting the player to operate the push button 31B or the stick controller 31A is displayed. or at the timing when the effective operation period ends without detection of the operation of the push button 31B or the stick controller 31A, the enemy character Either a big hit confirmation notification that the player wins the battle by defeating the player or a failure confirmation notification that the mounted movable body 32 is knocked down by an enemy character without being moved from the original position to the performance position and loses the battle is performed.

Patterns KB-1 and KV-1 are selected when the result of the variable display is a failure, and are patterns in which a confirmation notification is made that the friendly character is defeated by the enemy character and loses the battle. KV-2 is selected when the result of the variable display is a big win, and is a pattern in which a confirmation of the big win is announced in which the ally character defeats the enemy character and wins the battle.

In patterns KB-2 and KV-2, the timing at which the operation of the push button 31B or the stick controller 31A is detected, or the timing at which the operation valid period ends without detecting the operation of the push button 31B or the stick controller 31A. Then, a vibration performance is performed in which the vibration motor 61 is driven for a predetermined period (for example, about 10 seconds) to vibrate the push button 31B or the stick controller 31A.

Further, when execution of the pattern KB-2 or KV-2 is determined in the determination effect type determination processing of step 241 SGS282 to be described later, the mounting movable body 32 moves from the origin position to the effect position at the timing when the mounting movable body 32 falls. , a big hit is announced, and after returning from the performance position to the origin position, the first pseudo movable body display Z100 moves and displays from the first initial display position to the first performance display position, and the decoration pattern is variable. Display resumes. Then, the first pseudo movable body display Z100 is moved from the first effect display position to the first initial display position, and the variable display of the decorative pattern is stopped and displayed, so that the variable display result becomes a big hit (FIG. 11). -29 (E) to (G), see FIGS. 11-30 (A) to (F)).

On the other hand, when the execution of pattern KB-1 or KV-1 is determined, the mounted movable body 32 does not move from the origin position at the timing when the mounted movable body 32 falls, and an effect image Z57 in which the glass is cracked is displayed. Loss confirmation notification is performed, and the variable display result is a loss (see FIGS. 11-29 (H) to (J)).

Next, about the degree of expectation for a big hit according to the execution status of the development effect A using the mounted movable body 32 in super reach β and γ (strong super reach) and the development effect B using the second pseudo movable body display Z200. , with reference to FIGS. 11-11. FIG. 11-11 is a diagram showing the degree of expectation for a big hit according to the execution status of the advanced performance A and the advanced performance B. FIG.

As shown in FIG. 11-11, pattern A is a pattern in which both development effect A and development effect B are not executed during the variable display period of symbols based on the variation patterns of super reach β and γ (strong super reach). Pattern B is a pattern in which development effect A is not executed and development effect B is executed. Pattern C is a pattern in which development effect A is executed and development effect B is not executed. This is a pattern in which both the development effect A and the development effect B are executed.

In the above description, the degree of expectation for a big hit is set to increase in the order of pattern A<pattern B<pattern C<pattern D. That is, during the variable display period of the pattern based on the fluctuation pattern of super reach β or super reach γ, the development effect A using the mounted movable body 32 and the development effect B using the second pseudo movable body display Z200 are executed. When the development performance A is not executed and the development performance B is executed, the ratio of control to the big win game state (big win expectation) is higher. Further, the rate of control to the big win game state when the development performance A and the development performance B are executed is higher than the case where the development performance A is executed without the development performance B being executed (big win expectation). is high. In addition, when the development performance A and the development performance B are executed, the ratio of control to the big win game state (big win expectation) is higher than when the development performance A and the development performance B are not executed.

11-18 is a flow chart showing the variable display start setting process (step S171) in the effect control process shown in FIG. In the variable display start setting process, the effect control CPU 120 first determines whether or not the first variable display start command reception flag is ON (step 241SGS271). If the first variable display start command reception flag is ON (step 241SGS271; Y), the buffer number "1-0" to "1-4" of the first special figure reservation storage in the reception command buffer at the time of start winning Various command data and various flags stored in correspondence are shifted upward by one buffer number (step 241SGS272). The contents of the buffer number "1-0" are erased because they cannot be shifted because there is no place to shift them.

Specifically, the various command data and various flags stored in association with the buffer number "1-1" of the first special figure reservation storage are shifted so as to be stored in association with the buffer number "1-0" Then, the various command data and various flags stored in correspondence with the buffer number "1-2" of the first special figure reservation storage are shifted so as to be stored in correspondence with the buffer number "1-1", Various command data and various flags stored in correspondence with the buffer number "1-3" of the 1 special figure reservation storage are shifted so as to be stored in correspondence with the buffer number "1-2", and the first special figure Various command data and various flags stored in association with the buffer numbers "1-4" of the reserved storage are shifted so as to be associated with the buffer numbers "1-3" and stored.

If the first variable display start command reception flag is off at step 241SGS271 (step 241SGS271; N), it is determined whether or not the second variable display start command reception flag is on (step 241SGS273). If the second variable display start command reception flag is off (step 241SGS273; N), the variable display start setting process is terminated, and if the second variable display start command reception flag is on (step 241SGS273; Y ), various command data and various flags stored in association with the buffer numbers "2-0" to "2-4" of the second special figure reservation storage in the start winning command buffer 109SG194A, one buffer number It is shifted upward by minutes (step 241SGS274). The contents of the buffer number "2-0" are erased because they cannot be shifted because there is no place to shift them.

Specifically, the various command data and various flags stored in association with the buffer number "2-1" of the second special figure reservation storage are shifted so as to be stored in association with the buffer number "2-0" Then, the various command data and various flags stored in association with the buffer number "2-2" of the second special figure reservation storage are shifted so as to be stored in association with the buffer number "2-1", Various command data and various flags stored in association with the buffer number "2-3" of the 2 special figure reservation storage are shifted so as to be stored in association with the buffer number "2-2", and the second special figure Various command data and various flags stored in association with the buffer number "2-4" of the reserved storage are shifted so as to be associated with the buffer number "2-3" and stored.

After executing step 241SGS272 or step 241SGS274, the effect control CPU 120 reads the variation pattern designation command from the variation pattern designation command storage area (step 241SGS275).

Next, the display result (stop design) of the decorative design is determined according to the data stored in the display result designating command storage area (that is, the received display result designating command) (step 241SGS276). In this case, the effect control CPU 120 determines the stop pattern of the decorative pattern corresponding to the display result specified by the display result specifying command, and stores the data indicating the stop pattern of the determined decorative pattern in the decorative pattern display result storage area. do.

In addition, in the present characteristic part 241SG, when the received variable display result designation command is the second variable display result designation command corresponding to the probability variable jackpot A, the effect control CPU 120, for example, determines that the three symbols are "7" as the stop symbols. ”Determines a combination of matching decorative patterns (jackpot pattern). Further, when the received variable display result designation command is the third variable display result designation command corresponding to the probability variable jackpot B, a plurality of combinations of odd-numbered symbols other than "7" (for example, "111", (combination of decorative patterns such as "333", "555", "999"). In addition, when the received variable display result designation command is the fourth variable display result designation command corresponding to the probability variable big hit C, the stop symbols are "334" and "778" which are the same chance numbers as the small hit. decide from within. In addition, when the received variable display result designation command is the fifth variable display result designation command corresponding to the non-probability variable jackpot, the effect control CPU 120 may, for example, select a decorative pattern in which three patterns are even-numbered patterns as the stop pattern. Determine the combination (jackpot pattern). Further, when the received variable display result designation command is the sixth variable display result designation command corresponding to the small hit, the stop symbols are "334" and "778" which are the same chance numbers as the probability variable big hit C. decide from within. Further, when the received variable display result designation command is the first variable display result designation command corresponding to the loss, the decorative symbols in which the three symbols are not aligned as the stop symbols are combinations other than the above-described chance symbols. (losing pattern) is determined.

In determining these stop symbols, the effect control CPU 120 extracts, for example, random numbers for determining the stop symbols, and uses a stop symbol determination table in which data indicating combinations of decorative symbols and numerical values are associated with each other. Then, the stop symbol of the decorative symbol may be determined. That is, the stop symbol may be determined by selecting data indicating a combination of decorative symbols corresponding to a numerical value matching the extracted random number.

Next, the effect control CPU 120 confirms whether the variation pattern in the variable display is a normal reach variation pattern or a super reach variation pattern (step 241SGS277), and when it is a normal reach variation pattern or a super reach variation pattern (step 241SGS277 ; Y), executing the notice effect type determination processing shown in FIGS. 21(A) is executed to determine the effect pattern (effect type) of the development effect A in the variable display (step 241SGS278B). When it is not the normal reach fluctuation pattern or the super reach fluctuation pattern (step 241SGS277; N), it proceeds to step 241SGS283.

As shown in FIG. 11-19, in the announcement effect type determination process, the effect control CPU 120 first identifies the variable display result and the variation pattern (step 241SGS301). The variable display result is a variable display for designating a variable display result (loss, variable probability big win A, variable probability big win B, variable probability big win C, non-variable probability big win, small win) transmitted from the main substrate 11 at the start of the variable display. It can be specified by the variable display result designation command stored in the variable display result designation command storage area for storing the result designation command. Further, the variation pattern can be specified by the variation pattern designation command stored in the variation pattern designation command storage area, as described above. In addition, in this characteristic part 241SG, since the target of the notice effect is normal reach and super reach, specifically, the variable display result is a big hit (variable big hit A, big win B, big win C, non-variable big win) or loses. Which one is specified by the variable display result specification command, and whether the variation pattern is normal reach or super reach can be specified by the variation pattern specification command. Incidentally, the case of the variable probability big win C may be excluded from the target of the advance notice effect.

Next, the effect control CPU 120 determines whether or not the gaming state is the low base state (time saving state) (step 241SGS302), and if it is the low base state (step 241SGS302; Y), the random number for determining the notice effect is extracted, and the effect pattern of the notice effect A is determined using the notice effect type determination table A shown in FIG. 11-20(A) (step 241SGS303). On the other hand, if it is not in the low base state, that is, if it is in the high base state (step 241SGS302; N), the random number for determining the notice effect is extracted, and the table B for determining the notice effect type shown in FIG. 11-20(B) is extracted. is used to determine the effect pattern of the advance notice effect B (step 241SGS304).

As shown in FIG. 11-20(A), in the advance notice effect A type determination table, "Pattern PYA-1", "Pattern PYA-2", "Pattern PYA-3", and "Pattern PYA-4" For each, if the variable display result is a probability variable jackpot (any of probability variable jackpot A, probability variable jackpot B, or probability variable jackpot C), if it becomes a non-probability variable jackpot, if super reach is lost, if normal reach is lost are assigned different determination values so that the number of determination values shown in FIG. 11-20(A) is obtained.

Specifically, when the variable display result is a probability variable jackpot, 5 judgment values are assigned to "pattern PYA-1", and 15 judgment values are assigned to "pattern PYA-2". 30 determination values are assigned to "pattern PYA-3", and 50 determination values are assigned to "pattern PYA-4". In addition, when the variable display result is a non-probable variable jackpot, 5 determination values are assigned to "pattern PYA-1", and 15 determination values are assigned to "pattern PYA-2". , “Pattern PYA-3” is assigned 50 determination values, and “Pattern PYA-4” is assigned 30 determination values. In addition, when the variable display result is super reach out, 50 determination values are assigned to "pattern PYA-1", and 30 determination values are assigned to "pattern PYA-2". , “Pattern PYA-3” are assigned 15 determination values, and “Pattern PYA-4” is assigned 30 determination values. In addition, when the variable display result is out of normal reach, 80 determination values are assigned to "pattern PYA-1", and 10 determination values are assigned to "pattern PYA-2", Eight determination values are assigned to "pattern PYA-3", and two determination values are assigned to "pattern PYA-4".

By assigning the judgment value in this way, when the variable display becomes a probability variable jackpot, the "pattern PYA-4" is determined at the highest rate, and when it becomes a non-probability variable jackpot, the "pattern "PYA-3" is determined at the highest rate, and "Pattern PYA-1" is determined at the highest rate when super reach or normal reach is lost. In other words, "Pattern PYA-4" has the highest expectation for a big hit, and "Pattern PYA-4" > "Pattern PYA-3" > "Pattern PYA-2" > "Pattern PYA-1" have the lowest expectations for a big hit. Become. Incidentally, the determination ratio can be changed in various ways.

As shown in FIG. 11-20(B), in the announcement effect B type determination table, "pattern PYB-1", "pattern PYB-2", "pattern PYB-3", and "pattern PYB-4" For each, if the variable display result is a probability variable jackpot (any of probability variable jackpot A, probability variable jackpot B, or probability variable jackpot C), if it becomes a non-probability variable jackpot, if super reach is lost, if normal reach is lost are assigned different determination values so as to have the number of determination values shown in FIG. 11-20(B).

Specifically, when the variable display result is a probability variable jackpot, 5 judgment values are assigned to "pattern PYB-1", and 15 judgment values are assigned to "pattern PYB-2". 30 determination values are assigned to "pattern PYB-3", and 50 determination values are assigned to "pattern PYB-4". In addition, when the variable display result is a non-probable variable jackpot, 5 determination values are assigned to "pattern PYB-1", and 15 determination values are assigned to "pattern PYB-2". , “pattern PYB-3” is assigned 50 determination values, and “pattern PYB-4” is assigned 30 determination values. In addition, when the variable display result is super reach out, 50 determination values are assigned to "pattern PYB-1", and 30 determination values are assigned to "pattern PYB-2". , “pattern PYB-3” is assigned 15 determination values, and “pattern PYB-4” is assigned 30 determination values. In addition, when the variable display result is out of normal reach, 80 determination values are assigned to "pattern PYB-1", and 10 determination values are assigned to "pattern PYB-2", Eight determination values are assigned to "pattern PYB-3", and two determination values are assigned to "pattern PYB-4".

By assigning the judgment value in this way, when the probability variable jackpot is determined in the variable display, the "pattern PYB-4" is determined at the highest rate, and when the non-probability variable jackpot is determined, the "pattern PYB-3" is determined at the highest rate, and when super reach or normal reach is lost, "pattern PYB-1" is determined at the highest rate. In other words, "pattern PYB-4" has the highest degree of expectation for a big hit, and "pattern PYB-3"> "pattern PYB-3"> "pattern PYB-2"> "pattern PYB-1" has the lowest degree of expectation for a big hit in that order. Become. Incidentally, the determination ratio can be changed in various ways.

In the characterizing portion 241SG, the table for determining the advance notice effect A type for the low base state and the table for deciding the advance notice effect B type for the high base state are exemplified as having the same decision ratio for each pattern. The present invention is not limited to this, and the determination ratio of each pattern may differ between the table for determining the type of advance notice effect A and the table for determining the type of notice effect B.

Returning to FIG. 11-19, in step 241SGS305, the advance notice effect type determined in step 241SGS303 or step 241SGS304 is stored in a predetermined area of RAM 122 (step 241SGS305). Then, the process proceeds to step 241SGS306 to set the period until the start of the effect to the announcement effect start waiting timer (step 241SGS306), and terminates the processing.

Next, as shown in FIG. 11-21, in the development effect A type determination process, the effect control CPU 120 first specifies the variable display result and the variation pattern (step 241SGS311). The variable display result is a variable display for designating a variable display result (loss, variable probability big win A, variable probability big win B, variable probability big win C, non-variable probability big win, small win) transmitted from the main substrate 11 at the start of the variable display. It can be specified by the variable display result designation command stored in the variable display result designation command storage area for storing the result designation command. Further, the variation pattern can be specified by the variation pattern designation command stored in the variation pattern designation command storage area, as described above. In addition, in this characteristic portion 241SG, since the target of the development effect A is normal reach and super reach, specifically, the variable display result is a big hit (variable big win A, big win B, big win C, non-variable big win) or It suffices to specify by the variable display result designation command whether it is a loss or not, and to specify by the fluctuation pattern designation command whether the variation pattern is normal reach or super reach. Incidentally, the case of the probability variable jackpot C may be excluded from the object of the development effect A.

Next, the effect control CPU 120 extracts the development effect type determination random number, and determines the effect pattern of the development effect A using the development effect A type determination table shown in FIG. ).

As shown in FIG. 11-21(B), in the development effect A type determination table, the variable display result is the probability variable jackpot (variable probability jackpot A, probability variable jackpot B, any of the probability variable jackpot C), when it becomes a non-probability variable jackpot, when super reach is lost, when normal reach is lost Different judgment values are shown in FIG. 11-21 (B) It is assigned to be a value number.

Specifically, when the variable display result is a probability variable jackpot, 10 determination values are assigned to "non-execution" and 90 determination values are assigned to "execution". In addition, when the variable display result is a non-probability variable jackpot, 20 determination values are assigned to "non-execution" and 80 determination values are assigned to "execution". Further, when the variable display result is out of super reach, 80 determination values are assigned to "non-execution" and 20 determination values are assigned to "execution". In addition, 100 determination values are assigned to "non-execution" when the variable display result is out of normal reach. That is, when the normal reach is lost, the development effect A is not executed because the weak super reach effect is not developed.

By assigning the judgment value in this way, in the case of a probability variable jackpot or a non-probability variable jackpot in the variable display, "execution" is determined at the highest percentage, and if the super reach or normal reach is lost "Non-execution" is determined with the highest percentage. That is, the degree of expectation for a big win is higher when the development effect A is executed than when it is not executed. Incidentally, the determination ratio can be changed in various ways.

Returning to FIG. 11-21(A), in step 241SGS313, the development effect A type determined in step 241SGS312 is stored in a predetermined area of RAM 122 (step 241SGS313). Then, the process proceeds to step 241SGS314, sets the period until the start of the development effect A start waiting timer (step 241SGS314), and terminates the processing.

Returning to FIG. 11-18, after executing the processing of step 241SGS278B, the effect control CPU 120 confirms whether or not the variation pattern in the variable display is a super reach variation pattern (step 241 SGS279), and super reach variation. If it is a pattern (step 241SGS279; Y), the development suggestive effect type determination processing shown in FIG. 241SGS280), the development performance B type determination processing shown in FIG. A) is performed to determine the effect pattern (effect type) of the determined effect in the variable display by executing the determination process for determining effect B type shown in A) (step 241SGS282). When it is not a super reach variation pattern, that is, when it is a normal reach variation pattern (step 241SGS279; N), it progresses to step 241SGS283.

As shown in FIG. 11-22(A), the effect control CPU 120 first identifies the variable display result and the variation pattern in the development suggestive effect type determination process (step 241SGS321). The variable display result is a variable display for designating a variable display result (loss, variable probability big win A, variable probability big win B, variable probability big win C, non-variable probability big win, small win) transmitted from the main substrate 11 at the start of the variable display. It can be specified by the variable display result designation command stored in the variable display result designation command storage area for storing the result designation command. Further, the variation pattern can be specified by the variation pattern designation command stored in the variation pattern designation command storage area, as described above. In addition, in this characteristic part 241SG, since the target of the notice effect is normal reach and super reach, specifically, the variable display result is a big hit (variable big hit A, big win B, big win C, non-variable big win) or loses. Which one is specified by the variable display result specification command, and whether the variation pattern is normal reach or super reach can be specified by the variation pattern specification command. Incidentally, the case of the variable probability big win C may be excluded from the target of the advance notice effect.

Next, the effect control CPU 120 extracts a random number for determining a development-suggestion effect, and determines the effect pattern of the development-suggestion effect using the table for determining the type of development-suggestion effect shown in FIG. ).

As shown in FIG. 11-22(B), in the development suggestion production type determination table, "pattern PS-1", "pattern PS-2", "pattern PS-3", and "pattern PS-4" For each, if the variable display result is a probability variable jackpot (any of probability variable jackpot A, probability variable jackpot B, or probability variable jackpot C), if it becomes a non-probability variable jackpot, if super reach is lost, if normal reach is lost are assigned different determination values so that the number of determination values shown in FIG. 11-20(A) is obtained.

Specifically, when the variable display result is a probability variable jackpot, 5 judgment values are assigned to "pattern PS-1", and 15 judgment values are assigned to "pattern PS-2". 30 judgment values are assigned to "pattern PS-3", and 50 judgment values are assigned to "pattern PS-4". In addition, when the variable display result is a non-probable variable jackpot, 5 determination values are assigned to "pattern PS-1", and 15 determination values are assigned to "pattern PS-2". , "pattern PS-3" is assigned 50 determination values, and "pattern PS-4" is assigned 30 determination values. In addition, when the variable display result is super reach out, 50 judgment values are assigned to "pattern PS-1", and 30 judgment values are assigned to "pattern PS-2". , "Pattern PS-3" is assigned 15 determination values, and "Pattern PS-4" is assigned 5 determination values.

By assigning the judgment value in this way, when the variable display becomes a probability variable jackpot, the "pattern PS-4" is determined with the highest ratio, and when it becomes a non-probability variable jackpot, the "pattern PS-3" is determined at the highest rate, and if super reach is lost, "pattern PS-1" is determined at the highest rate. In other words, "pattern PS-4" has the highest expectation for a big hit, and "pattern PS-4" > "pattern PS-3" > "pattern PS-2" > "pattern PS-1" has the lowest expectations for a big hit. Become. Incidentally, the determination ratio can be changed in various ways.

Returning to FIG. 11-22(A), in step 241SGS323, the development suggestive effect type determined in step 241SGS322 is stored in a predetermined area of RAM 122 (step 241SGS323). Then, the process proceeds to step 241SGS324, a period until the start of the effect is set in the development suggestion effect start waiting timer (step 241SGS324), and the processing is terminated.

Next, as shown in FIG. 11-23(A), in the development effect B type determination process, the effect control CPU 120 first identifies the variable display result and the variation pattern (step 241SGS331). The variable display result is a variable display for designating a variable display result (loss, variable probability big win A, variable probability big win B, variable probability big win C, non-variable probability big win, small win) transmitted from the main substrate 11 at the start of the variable display. It can be specified by the variable display result designation command stored in the variable display result designation command storage area for storing the result designation command. Further, the variation pattern can be specified by the variation pattern designation command stored in the variation pattern designation command storage area, as described above. In addition, in this characteristic part 241SG, since the target of the notice effect is normal reach and super reach, specifically, the variable display result is a big hit (variable big hit A, big win B, big win C, non-variable big win) or loses. Which one is specified by the variable display result specification command, and whether the variation pattern is normal reach or super reach can be specified by the variation pattern specification command. Incidentally, the case of the variable probability big win C may be excluded from the target of the advance notice effect.

Next, the effect control CPU 120 extracts a random number for determining the development effect, and determines the effect pattern of the development effect B using the development effect B type determination table shown in FIG. 11-23(B) (step 241SGS332). .

As shown in FIG. 11-23(B), in the development effect B type determination table, the variable display result is the probability variable jackpot (probability variable jackpot A, probability variable jackpot B, any of the probability variable jackpot C), if it becomes a non-probability variable jackpot, if the super reach is lost, if the normal reach is lost, the judgment value shown in FIG. 11-23 (B) It is assigned to be a value number.

Specifically, when the variable display result is a probability variable jackpot, 20 determination values are assigned to "non-execution" and 80 determination values are assigned to "execution". In addition, when the variable display result is a non-probability variable jackpot, 30 determination values are assigned to "non-execution" and 70 determination values are assigned to "execution". In addition, when the variable display result is out of super reach β/γ, 30 judgment values are assigned to “non-execution” and 70 judgment values are allocated to “execution”. . In addition, 100 determination values are assigned to "non-execution" when the variable display result is out of super reach α. That is, when the super reach α is lost, the development effect B is not executed because the strong super reach effect is not developed.

By assigning the judgment value in this way, in the case of a probability variable jackpot or a non-probability variable jackpot in the variable display, "execution" is determined at the highest percentage, and if the super reach or normal reach is lost "Non-execution" is determined with the highest percentage. In other words, the degree of expectation for a big hit is higher when the development performance B is executed than when it is not executed. Incidentally, the determination ratio can be changed in various ways.

Returning to FIG. 11-23(A), in step 241SGS333, the development effect B type determined in step 241SGS332 is stored in a predetermined area of RAM 122 (step 241SGS333). Then, the process proceeds to step 241SGS334, the period until the start of the development effect B start waiting timer is set (step 241SGS334), and the processing ends.

As shown in FIG. 11-24(A), in the decided effect type determination process, the effect control CPU 120 determines the decided effect type shown in FIG. The effect pattern of the determined effect is determined using the table for determination (step 241SGS341). Next, the determined effect type is stored in a predetermined area of the RAM 122 (step 241SGS342), the period until the start of the effect is set in the timer for waiting for the start of the determined effect (step 241SGS343), and the processing ends.

As shown in FIG. 11-24(B), in the determination effect type determination table, the operation of the push button 31B is validated, and an operation prompting display prompting the player to single-press the push button 31B is displayed. KB-1", "Pattern KB-2", "Pattern KV-1", "Pattern KV- 2”, if the variable display result is a probability variable jackpot (either probability variable jackpot A, probability variable jackpot B, or probability variable jackpot C), if it becomes a non-probability variable jackpot, or if the super reach is lost Different decision values are assigned so as to have the number of decision values shown in FIG. 11-24(B).

Specifically, when the variable display result is a probability variable jackpot, 30 determination values are assigned to "pattern KB-2", and 70 determination values are assigned to "pattern KV-2". assigned. In addition, when the variable display result is a non-probable variable jackpot, 70 determination values are assigned to "pattern KB-2", and 30 determination values are assigned to "pattern KV-2". ing. In addition, when the variable display result is super reach β/γ deviation, 70 judgment values are assigned to "pattern KB-1", and 30 judgment values are assigned to "pattern KV-1". is assigned.

By assigning the determination value in this way, when the probability variable jackpot is achieved in the variable display, the "pattern KV-1" in which the operation object is the stick controller 31A is determined at the highest rate, and the non-probability variable jackpot is determined. In this case, the "pattern KB-2" in which the push button 31B is the operation target is determined at the highest ratio. ” is determined by the highest percentage. In other words, when the stick controller 31A is operated, the degree of expectation for the probability variable big hit is higher than when the push button 31B is operated. Incidentally, the determination ratio can be changed in various ways.

In this characteristic part 241SG, the random number for determining the advance effect, the random number for determining the development effect A, the random number for determining the development suggestive effect, the random number for determining the development effect B, and the random number for determining the final effect are random numbers in the range of 1 to 100. and any value in the range of 1 to 100 is extracted. In other words, the number of determination values of these various random numbers for determining effects is set to 100 in the range of 1 to 100, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the range of these random numbers for determining effects can be set as appropriate. should be decided. In addition, a random number counter for effect determination for generating these various random numbers for determination of effect is set in the RAM 122, and the random number counter for effect determination is updated for each timer interrupt in random number update processing. Further, a common random number may be used as these random numbers for determining various effects.

In addition, in this characterizing section 241SG, the mode of determining the effect pattern of various effects in the various effect type determination processing has been exemplified, but the present invention is not limited to this. It is also possible to determine the execution of a notice effect such as a character notice effect, a step-up notice in which the notice image changes in stages, and a group notice in which a group of predetermined characters crosses the display area. is determined, the timing for starting the notice performance differs depending on the manner of the notice performance, so a different period corresponding to the manner of the notice performance may be set in the timer for waiting for the start of notice performance to be described later.

Returning to FIG. 11-18, at step 241SGS283, the effect control CPU 120 selects the effect control pattern (process table) corresponding to the variation pattern designation command. Then, the process timer in process data 1 of the selected process table is started (step 241SGS284).

The process table contains display control execution data for controlling the display of the image display device 5, lamp control execution data for controlling the lighting of each LED, and data for controlling sounds output from the speakers 8L and 8R. Sound control execution data, operation unit control execution data for controlling the operation of the push button 31B and stick controller 31A, etc. are arranged in chronological order in association with each process data n (numbers 1 to N). there is

Next, the effect control CPU 120 controls the effect device (image display as a component for effect) according to the contents of the process data 1 (display control execution data 1, lamp control execution data 1, sound control execution data 1, operation unit control execution data 1). The device 5, various lamps as performance parts, speakers 8L and 8R as performance parts, and operation units (push button 31B, stick controller 31A, etc.) are controlled (step 241SGS285). For example, a command is output to the display control unit 123 in order to display an image corresponding to the variation pattern on the image display device 5 . It also outputs a control signal (lamp control execution data) to the lamp control board 14 in order to control lighting/extinguishing of various lamps. Also, a control signal (sound number data) is output to the audio control board 13 in order to output audio from the speakers 8L and 8R.

In addition, in this characteristic part 241SG, the effect control CPU 120 controls so that the decorative pattern is displayed variably according to the variation pattern corresponding to the variation pattern designation command one-to-one. A variation pattern to be used may be selected from a plurality of variation patterns corresponding to the designated command.

Then, a variable display time timer is set to a value corresponding to the variable display time specified by the variation pattern designation command (step 241SGS286). Also, a predetermined time is set in the variable display control timer (step 241SGS287). The predetermined time is, for example, 33 ms, and the effect control CPU 120 writes image data during variable display, including image data indicating the display state of the left, middle, and right decorative patterns, into the VRAM each time the predetermined time elapses. The display control unit 123 outputs a signal corresponding to the image data written in the VRAM to the image display device 5, and the image display device 5 displays an image corresponding to the signal. As a result, the variable display of decorative patterns and the display of moving images of other effects are realized.

Next, the effect control CPU 120 sets the value of the effect control process flag to a value corresponding to the effect process during variable display (step S172), and ends the variable display start setting process (step 241SGS288).

(Example of Super Reach β production operation)
Next, an example of the effect operation of super reach β will be described with reference to FIGS. 11-25 to 11-31. 11-25, (A) to (H) are diagrams showing an example of the effect operation of super reach β mainly in normal reach. 11-26, (A) to (J) are diagrams mainly showing examples of effect operations in weak super reach. 11-27, (A) to (F) are diagrams similarly showing an example of effect operation in weak super reach. 11-28, (A) to (D) are diagrams mainly showing examples of effect operations in strong super reach. FIGS. 11-29 are diagrams showing an example of the effect operation of the strong super reach effect (E) to (J). 11-30, (A) to (F) are diagrams showing an example of an effect operation after notification of the confirmation of a big hit. 11-31, (A) to (D) are diagrams showing the details of the movement display of the first pseudo-movable object display. FIG. 11-32 is a diagram showing the relationship between the light-emitting display section and the mounted movable body LED.

Hereinafter, examples of various effect operations in the variable display period based on the variation pattern of super reach β will be described.

As shown in FIG. 11-25(A), the effect control CPU 120 variably displays decorative patterns in the decorative design display areas 5L, 5C, and 5R based on the fluctuation pattern of the super reach β based on the occurrence of the start winning. to start. In addition, at the upper left of the display area of the image display device 5, a first reserved memory number (for example, the number "2"), a second reserved memory number (for example, the number "0"), and a small number corresponding to the decoration pattern A display area 5SL for displaying patterns (for example, arrows "↓↓↓") is provided, and small patterns are variably displayed in synchronization with the variable display of decorative patterns.

Note that the first pseudo movable body display Z100 and the second pseudo movable body display Z100 and the second pseudo movable body display Z100 and the error display (not shown) indicating the error state that has occurred in the pachinko game machine 1 are the first reserved memory number, the second reserved memory number, the small symbols, and the error display (not shown). Since the movable object display Z200 is displayed on the front side (upper layer), the first pseudo-movable object display Z100 and the second pseudo-movable object display Z200 overlap, and the number of first reserved memories, the number of second reserved memories, and the number of small While the visibility of the pattern and error display is prevented from deteriorating, the decorative pattern is displayed on the back side (lower layer) than the first pseudo movable body display Z100 and the second pseudo movable body display Z200. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the visibility of the first pseudo-movable object display Z100 and the second pseudo-movable object display Z200 from deteriorating due to the overlapping of the decoration patterns.

After the variable display is started, as shown in FIG. 11-25(B), when the variable display mode is the normal reach display mode, the normal reach effect as the variable display effect of the decoration pattern is started.

As shown in FIG. 11-25(C), the effect control CPU 120 moves the second pseudo movable body display Z200 to the first specific initial display position at the start timing of the advance notice effect A after a predetermined time has passed since the normal reach display mode was set. 11-25(D)), and as shown in FIG. By light-emitting the light-emitting display parts Z208A-Z208E in a display color corresponding to the pattern (any of PYA-1-4), a notice effect A suggesting control to a big win game state is executed. Also, an effect image Z60 for emphasizing the second pseudo movable body display Z200 is displayed around the second pseudo movable body display Z200 moved and displayed to the first specific effect display position.

The effect image Z60 is displayed in a mode corresponding to the luminescent display colors of the luminescent display portions Z208A to Z208E. For example, when the luminescent display color of the luminescent display portions Z208A to Z208E is white based on the pattern PYA-1, the effect image Z60 is white and has a small display size, and the luminescent display portions Z208A to Z208A to Z208E are displayed based on the pattern PYA-4. When the luminescent display color of Z208E is red, it is preferable that the effect image Z60 is red and the display size is increased according to the degree of expectation.

Next, as shown in FIG. 11-25(F), the effect image Z60 is erased, and after moving and displaying the second pseudo movable body display Z200 from the first specific effect display position to the first specific initial display position, the second By erasing the pseudo movable object display Z200, the advance notice effect A is terminated. After that, in the display area 5SR provided on the upper right of the display area of the image display device 5, the decoration pattern is reduced and displayed in a mode slightly larger than the small pattern.

Then, when it is determined that the development effect A is not to be executed in the development effect A type determination processing of step 241SGS278B, as shown in FIG. 32 is not dropped and held at the origin position, the development notification image Z300 is displayed, and the effect image Z61A is displayed around it to notify that the weak super reach performance will develop. Further, when execution of development effect A is determined, as shown in FIG. 32 is dropped from the origin position to the performance position, and an effect image Z61B different from the effect image Z61A for emphasizing the mounted movable body 32 is displayed around it to notify development of weak super reach performance.

In addition, in the characteristic part 241SG, when the mounting movable body 32 is executed as the development effect A, the ratio of being controlled to the big hit game state is higher than when it is not executed, but the development effect A (mounting movable body 32 Even if it is decided not to execute the fall), by displaying the development notification image Z300, it is possible to notify that it will develop into a weak super reach effect.

As shown in FIG. 11-26(A), after the execution period of the development effect A ends, the effect control CPU 120 starts the weak super reach effect by displaying the character image Z310, etc. After the movable body display Z200 is displayed at the first specific initial display position, it is moved and displayed at the first specific effect display position, and the development suggestive effect is started (see FIG. 11-26(B)). At this time, the second pseudo-movable object display Z200 is displayed such that a portion thereof overlaps the front side of the character image Z310.

In addition, when the second pseudo-movable object display Z200 is moved to the first specific effect display position as a development suggestive effect, the light-emitting display parts Z208A to Z208E are displayed in white, and the button LED 62 of the push button 31B is lit. , to facilitate the operation of push button 31B.

Next, as shown in FIG. 11-26(C), an effect image Z62 for emphasizing the second pseudo-moving object display Z200 is displayed around the second pseudo-moving object display Z200. Then, if one of the patterns (PS-2 to PS-4) is determined in step 241 SGS280 development suggestion performance type determination processing, as shown in FIG. The effect image Z62 is enlarged according to the continuous hit operation (the number of detections of the operation), and the light emission display color of the light emission display parts Z208A to Z208E is changed every time a predetermined time elapses. Suggest that B is executed.

In addition, as shown in FIG. 11-26(E), even after the operation effective period ends, the light-emitting display colors of the light-emitting display portions Z208A to Z208E are maintained, and the background image is darkened for blackout display. After that, a small-sized character image Z310 having the same color as the light-emitting display color of the light-emitting display portions Z208A to Z208E when the operation effective period ends is displayed above the second pseudo-movable object display Z200, and the character image Z310 is displayed. After the effect image Z63 for emphasis is displayed (see FIG. 11-26(F)), the character image Z310 is temporarily erased while the effect image Z63 is displayed (see FIG. 11-26(G)), and then the middle image is displayed. After the character image Z310 of the size is displayed (see FIG. 11-26(H)), the character image Z310 is temporarily erased while the effect image Z63 is displayed (see FIG. 11-26(I)). A character image Z310 is displayed (see FIG. 11-26(J)).

Incidentally, in FIGS. 11-26E to 11-26J, it is preferable that the light emitting display portions Z208A to Z208E continue to emit light, but the effect image Z62 is not displayed, in consideration of the appearance of the presentation.

In this way, the character image Z310 of the same color as the light-emitting display portions Z208A to Z208E is displayed in such a manner that it gradually increases in size from the back side to the front side of the screen, and the character images Z310 of small size, medium size, and large size are displayed. When doing so, as shown in the enlarged view of FIG. 11-26(J) in FIG. 11-27, the second pseudo-moving body display Z200 is displayed in the area including the first specific effect display position. By overlapping at least a part of Z200 on the front side and making it possible to visually recognize the second pseudo movable body display Z200 through the overlapping area, the expectation for the execution of the development effect B is more suitable. can be aroused by

In addition, since the character image Z310 is displayed with priority over the second pseudo-movable object display Z200, the second pseudo-movable object display Z200 is erased without being moved to the first specific initial display position. While diverting the player's attention, the display of the character image Z310 can favorably suggest that the development effect B will be executed.

In addition, although the character image Z310 was displayed in a manner of gradually increasing in size, at least the second pseudo-movable body display Z200 was displayed in an area including the first specific effect display position of the second pseudo-movable body display Z200 from the start of display. You may display so that it overlaps on the near side of a part. Further, the effect image Z63 may also be displayed as a suggestive image so as to overlap at least a part of the second pseudo movable body display Z200 on the near side.

Next, as shown in FIG. 11-27(A), the effect control CPU 120 moves the second pseudo-movable object display Z200 from the first specific effect display position to the second position while displaying the large-sized character image Z310. 1 Delete (hide) without moving to a specific initial display position. Specifically, as an erasing display for emphasizing that the second pseudo movable body display Z200 has been erased, it is hidden in a manner of gradually fading out. Thereafter, the large-sized character image Z310 is erased by being hidden in a manner of gradually fading out.

In the characteristic part 241SG, the effect control CPU 120, as shown in FIG. Although the mode of erasing (hiding) without moving and displaying from the display position to the first specific initial display position has been exemplified, the present invention is not limited to this, as shown in FIG. 11-26(F). When the display of the character image Z310 is started, or when a predetermined time has passed since the start of the display, the second pseudo movable body display Z200 is displayed as a first specific effect display while the character image Z310 is being displayed. It may be erased (hidden) without being moved from the position to the first specific initial display position.

Further, the second pseudo movable body display Z200 is not limited to being erased (hidden) without being moved and displayed from the first specific effect display position to the first specific initial display position. Z200 may be faded out, moved from the first specific effect display position to the first specific initial display position, and erased (hidden).

After that, as shown in FIG. 11-27(B), at the start timing of the development effect B, the second pseudo movable object display Z200 is displayed at the first specific initial display position. Here, if non-execution of development effect B is determined in the development effect B type determination processing of step 241SGS281, as shown in FIG. It is erased without moving from the initial display position to the first specific effect display position, and the reach title image Z51, which will be described later, is displayed in a predetermined mode (for example, a mode at the start of display with high transmittance and low visibility). By doing so, it is notified that it will develop into a strong super reach.

On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 11-27(D), when execution of development effect B is determined, the second pseudo movable body display Z200 is moved from the first specific initial display position to the first specific effect display position. By doing so, it is notified that it will develop into a strong super reach. At this time, as shown in the enlarged view, the luminescent display portions Z208A to Z208E are illuminated in a predetermined color (for example, white) during the moving display, and the rotating display portion Z207 including the luminescent display portions Z208A to Z208E is displayed. It is displayed in a manner rotated clockwise when viewed from the front. Also, an effect image Z65 for emphasizing the second pseudo movable body display Z200 is displayed around the second pseudo movable body display Z200 moved and displayed to the first specific effect display position.

11-27(D), the luminous display colors of the luminous display parts Z208A to Z208E are different from the development suggestion production, and do not suggest the degree of expectation for a big hit, but are displayed on the image display device 5 as an image of a weak reach production. The light emission display color is set according to the color of the effect image Z65, etc., which is being displayed.

Next, as shown in FIG. 11-27(E), a reach title image Z51, which will be described later, is displayed in a predetermined mode (for example, a mode at the start of display with high transmittance and low visibility). As shown in 27(F), the second pseudo movable object display Z200 is erased (hidden) from the first specific effect display position to the first specific initial display position without being displayed.

Next, as shown in FIG. 11-28(A), when the variable display mode is the super ready-to-win display mode, the effect control CPU 120 has a reach title indicating the type of super ready-to-win effect and a reach title indicating the degree of expectation for a big hit. A title image Z51 is displayed to notify that the super ready-to-win effect has developed. Next, a super ready-to-win effect (for example, an effect of displaying an image Z52 in which an ally character and an enemy character battle (confrontation)) is started (see FIG. 11-28(B)). Then, when the pattern KB-1 and KB-2 have been determined in the determination effect type determination processing of step 241 SGS 282 at the timing when the predetermined time has passed since the super reach display mode was set, that is, the operation target is the push button. 31B, as shown in FIG. 11-28(C), an operation prompting image Z53 for prompting the player to press the push button 31B is displayed. On the other hand, when patterns KV-1 and KV-2 are determined in the determined effect type determination processing of step 241SGS282, that is, when the operation target is the stick controller 31A, as shown in FIG. 11-28(D). , an operation prompting image Z54 for prompting the player to pull the stick controller 31A is displayed.

The timing at which the push operation of the push button 31B (detection signal from the push sensor 35B) or the pull operation of the stick controller 31A (detection signal from the stick controller 31A) is detected in the operation effective period during which the operation prompting display is displayed, or the push At the timing when the operation valid period expires without detecting the push operation of the button 31B or the pull operation of the stick controller 31A, if the variable display result is a big hit, as shown in FIG. is dropped from the origin position to the performance position on the front side of the display area, and an effect image Z55 is displayed. In addition, according to the movement of the mounted movable body 32 from the origin position to the performance position, predetermined sound effects are output from the speakers 8L and 8R, and the mounted movable body LED 208 is lit in a predetermined color (for example, rainbow color). light up.

Note that the effect image Z55 is an effect image including a plurality of glass fragment images displayed in a manner in which glass cracks and scatters. is not limited to, and the effect image may have a mode different from that of the effect image Z71. For example, only a portion of the glass cracks and scatters as fragments, and the remaining portion is displayed in such a manner that the mounted movable body 32 is displayed overlapping the effect image Z55 displayed on the image display device 5. Even in a situation where it is difficult to visually recognize, it may be possible to make it easier for the player to grasp what has happened after taking some time.

Also in the effect image Z55, as in the effect image Z71 described later, at least one of the plurality of glass fragment images displayed in a scattering manner has the mounting movable body 32 arranged on the front side of the image display device 5. Since the positional relationship between the mounting movable body 32 and the glass fragment image becomes clearer by displaying a part of the image in reflection, it is possible to realize a display with a more three-dimensional effect.

After that, after moving the mounting movable body 32 from the performance position to the origin position, as shown in FIG. , As shown in FIG. 11-29(G), the combination of the big win symbols is temporarily stopped to inform the decision of the big win. Even if the combination of big winning symbols is temporarily stopped and displayed, the small symbols remain variably displayed.

Next, as shown in FIG. 11-30(A), the effect control CPU 120 displays an effect image Z71 in which glass cracks and glass fragments scatter in the display area of the image display device 5, and displays the first pseudo movable image. The body display Z100 is displayed at the first initial display position. Then, as shown in FIG. 11-30(B), the first pseudo movable body display Z100 is moved from the first initial display position to the first effect display position, and the effect movable display parts Z110A to Z110D are displayed in the first effect. The display state is changed to the second effect display state. In addition, in response to the display of movement of the first pseudo movable body display Z100 from the first initial display position to the first effect display position, it is the same as when the mounting movable body 32 is dropped in FIG. 11-29 (E). Then, predetermined sound effects are output from the speakers 8L and 8R, and the light-emitting display section Z108A is caused to emit light in a predetermined color (for example, rainbow colors).

Here, the details of the moving display from the first initial display position to the first effect display position of the first pseudo movable body display Z100 described in FIGS. 11-30 (A) and (B) are shown in FIGS. explain.

As shown in FIG. 11-31(A), the effect control CPU 120 displays, in the display area of the image display device 5, an effect image Z71 including an image Z71A showing a state in which glass is cracked and a plurality of glass fragments are scattered. At the same time, the first pseudo movable object display Z100 is displayed at the first initial display position. Note that the effect control CPU 120 displays the first pseudo movable body display Z100 so that a part thereof can be visually recognized below the mounting movable body 32 held at the origin position. Then, as shown in FIG. 11-31(B), when displaying the first pseudo movable body display Z100 at the first intermediate display position between the first initial display position and the first effect display position, The amount and movement display speed of the image Z71A showing glass fragments are increased from the state shown in -31(A), and the first pseudo movable object display Z100 is displayed on the front side of these images Z71A.

Next, as shown in FIGS. 11-31(C) and (D), when the first pseudo movable body display Z100 is displayed at the first effect display position, the broken glass is more likely than the state shown in FIG. 11-31(B) The amount and movement display speed of the image Z71A showing .

In this manner, the effect image Z71 for emphasizing the movement display of the first pseudo-moving body display Z100 is displayed as the first initial display of the first pseudo-moving body display Z100 according to the movement display of the first pseudo-moving body display Z100. position, the first intermediate display position, and the first effect display position, and only the image Z71A showing the broken glass in the effect image Z71 is moved from the back side to the front side of the first pseudo movable body display Z100. By displaying, it is possible not only to create a three-dimensional effect by the image Z71A that scatters around, but also to make the first pseudo movable object display Z100 look like a real structure.

Furthermore, as shown in the enlarged view of FIG. 11-31(C), the first pseudo-moving body display Z100 can be seen through any one of the plurality of images Z71A displayed on the front side of the first pseudo-moving body display Z100. As shown in the enlarged view of FIG. 11-31(D), one of the plurality of images Z71A displayed on the front side of the first pseudo-moving body display Z100 displays the first pseudo-moving body display By displaying a part of Z100 in a reflective manner, the positional relationship between the first pseudo movable object display Z100 and the image Z71A becomes clearer, so that a more stereoscopic display can be realized.

Further, as shown in FIG. 11-31(D), the effect control CPU 120 moves and displays the first pseudo movable body display Z100 to the first effect position, and then moves the effect movable display parts Z110A to Z110D to the first effect display. The state is changed to the second effect display state, and the light emission of the mounting movable body LED 208 and the light emission display of the light emission display section Z108A are executed at substantially the same cycle.

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 11-32, the effect control CPU 120 moves and displays the first pseudo-movable body display Z100 to the first effect display position, and then causes the light-emitting display section Z108A to move to the first period ta1-ta2 ( For example, after luminous display for 33 ms), a flashing display pattern that is not displayed for a second period ta2 to ta3 (for example, 33 ms) is displayed at the first effect display position. While repeating ta1 to ta4 multiple times, the mounted movable body LED 208 is lit for a first corresponding period (eg, 30 ms) corresponding to the first period, and then a second corresponding period corresponding to the second period (eg, 40ms) is repeated multiple times over the performance periods ta1 to ta4.

In this way, by performing (synchronizing) the light emission of the mounted movable body LED 208 and the light emission display of the light emission display section Z108A at substantially the same cycle, it is possible to make the presentation more suitable. In the first period ta1 to ta2, it is difficult to precisely match (synchronize) the time (eg, 33 ms) during which the light emitting display section Z108A is illuminated and the time (eg, 30 ms) during which the mounted movable body LED 208 is illuminated. Even in such a case, for example, by making the turn-off period of the mounting movable body LED 208 longer than the lighting period, the difference between the light emission display of the light emitting display section Z108A and the lighting of the mounting movable body LED 208 increases with the passage of time. can be prevented.

Further, during the presentation periods ta1 to ta4, a vibration presentation may be executed in which the vibration motor 61 is driven to vibrate the push button 31B and the stick controller 31A. By doing so, it is possible to make the performance more lively. The driving of the vibration motor 61 may be synchronized with the light emitting display of the light emitting display section Z108A and the lighting of the mounted movable body LED208.

Returning to FIG. 11-30(C), the effect control CPU 120 restores the first pseudo movable body display Z100 from the second effect display state to the first effect display state, and ends the reduced display of the decorative pattern. , After temporary stop display in the decorative pattern display areas 5L, 5C, 5R, as shown in FIG. As shown in E), it is erased after moving and displaying to the first effect display position. Then, the combination of the fixed decorative symbols is stop-displayed, and the small symbols are also stop-displayed in combination with the big winning patterns.

In this way, after executing the effect of dropping the mounting movable body 32 and performing the notification of the determination of the big win, by executing the effect of moving and displaying the first pseudo movable body display Z100, the game state is controlled to the big win game state. can be suitably realized by the player.

Returning to FIG. 11-29, during the operation effective period during which the operation prompting display is displayed, a single push operation of the push button 31B (a detection signal from the push sensor 35B) or a single pull operation of the stick controller 31A (a detection signal from the stick controller 31A) 11-29 when the variable display result is wrong at the timing when the detection signal) is detected, or when the operation effective period ends without detecting the single-pressing operation of the push button 31B or the single-pulling operation of the stick controller 31A. As shown in (H), the effect image Z57 is displayed without executing the movable body effect in which the mounting movable body 32 is dropped from the origin position above the display area of the image display device 5 to the effect position on the front side of the display area, As shown in FIG. 11-29(I), after displaying an image Z58 indicating that the friendly character has lost the battle with the enemy character, as shown in FIG. A stop display is performed to notify that the deviation is confirmed. In addition, in synchronization with the stop display of the combination of the winning symbols, the small symbols are stop-displayed with the combination of the losing symbols.

For example, if the push button 31B is operated at the start of the valid operation period and if the push button 31B is not operated during the valid operation period, there will be a difference in the length of time afterward. The difference in scale caused by 1. 2. period of fluctuation of the decorative pattern until the design is determined; 2. display period of images Z55 to Z58; It may be absorbed by extending or shortening any period of the rendering period of the movable body rendering.

(Example of Super Reach γ production operation)

Visual recognition of the displayed decoration pattern becomes difficult.

After that, as shown in FIG. 11-33(F), the effect control CPU 120 erases (non indicate.

As shown in FIG. 11-34(A), the effect control CPU 120, when the pattern PYB-3 is determined in step 241SGS278B in the process of determining the type of the effect for the effect, the effect control CPU 120 controls the effect that the normal ready-to-win display mode is set to the normal ready-to-win display mode. At the start timing of the effect B, after displaying the first pseudo movable body display Z100 at the first initial display position, by moving and displaying it to the first effect display position (see FIG. 11-34 (B)), the jackpot game state is entered. Executes the advance notice effect B suggesting that the control is performed. Also, an effect image Z82 for emphasizing the first pseudo movable object display Z100 is displayed around the first pseudo movable object display Z100 moved and displayed at the first effect display position.

(Pseudo movable object display and movable object)
Next, pseudo-movable object display and movable objects will be described with reference to FIGS. 11-35 to 11-40. FIG. 11-35 is an explanatory diagram for comparing the pseudo movable object display and the non-mounted movable object. FIG. 11-36 is also an explanatory diagram for comparing the display of the pseudo movable object and the non-mounted movable object. FIG. 11-37 is also an explanatory diagram for comparing the display of the pseudo movable object and the non-mounted movable object. FIG. 11-38 is also an explanatory diagram for comparing the display of the pseudo movable object and the non-mounted movable object. FIG. 11-39 is also an explanatory diagram for comparing the display of the pseudo movable object and the non-mounted movable object. FIG. 11-40 is an explanatory diagram for comparing the first pseudo-moving object display and the second pseudo-moving object display.

As shown in FIG. 11-35, the first pseudo-movable object display Z100 is a first non-movable object that differs from the mounted movable object 32 in form, weight, drive mechanism, etc., as described in FIG. 11-14(B). Although this is a pseudo-movable object display simulating the mounted movable object M100, both the first initial display position and the origin position of the mounted movable object 32 are substantially the same positions above the display area of the image display device 5, and the first effect display position. , and the effect positions of the mounted movable body 32 are both located below the first initial display position and the origin position. The downward direction is common to the direction of movement from the position to the effect position. In other words, both the first pseudo movable body display Z100 and the mounted movable body 32 are movable downward from the first initial display position above the display area of the image display device 5 or the origin position.

11-16, the movement display distance L2 from the first initial display position of the first pseudo movable body display Z100 to the first effect display position is longer than the moving distance L1 to (L2>L1).

Here, as shown in FIGS. 11-35 (A′) to (C′), the mounting movable body 32 falls (moves) by its own weight from the upper origin position through the intermediate position to the lower production position. While it takes about 300 ms, as shown in FIGS. 11-35(A) to (C), the first pseudo-movable object display Z100 is shifted from the first initial display position through the first intermediate display position to the first effect display. It takes about 100 ms to move and display to the position. In other words, the moving display from the first initial display position of the first pseudo movable body display Z100 to the first effect display position is longer than the movement display distance of the mounted movable body 32 from the origin position to the effect position. is also fast.

In this way, the first pseudo-movable object display Z100 imitating the first non-mountable movable object M100 can be mounted and movable as a structure capable of moving in the same direction (for example, downward direction) as the first non-mountable movable object M100. In the case where it is possible to move and display in the same direction from substantially the same position as the body 32, the moving display from the first initial display position to the first effect display position of the first pseudo movable body display Z100 is the movement display of the mounted movable body 32. By making the movement from the origin position to the performance position faster than the movement, it is possible to perform performance with impact faster than the movement of the mounting movable body 32 actually mounted, thereby giving surprise to the player. be able to.

Next, as shown in FIGS. 11-36 (A') and (B'), the first pseudo movable body display Z100 moves from the first origin position to the first rendering position below the first origin position. Occasionally, the mechanism part M100B comes into contact with the upper part of the moving body M106 and the downward movement is restricted, thereby stopping the moving body M106. is displayed in imitation of the first non-mounting movable body M100 on which is performed.

Therefore, as shown in FIGS. 11-36A and 11-36B, the effect control CPU 120 moves and displays the first pseudo movable body display Z100 from the first initial display position to the first effect display position. When stop-displaying at the performance display position, a reaction motion display (rebound display) of a specific amount of movement is performed.

More specifically, the first non-installed movable body M100 has a cantilever structure in which only the left side of the effect part M100A is supported by the drive mechanism M101, and when it moves to the first effect position, the mechanism part M100B is moved to the moving body M106. Since the mechanism portion M100B comes into contact with the upper portion of the , the downward movement is regulated, the mechanism portion M100B generates a recoil action due to the vibration before the effect portion M100A.

Therefore, as shown in FIG. 11-36 (B1), when the effect control CPU 120 moves and displays the first pseudo movable body display Z100 to the first effect display position, after performing the recoil motion display of the mechanism part M100B, , as shown in FIG. 11-36 (B2), the recoil action display of the effect section M100A is performed. By doing so, the first pseudo movable body display Z100 simulating the first non-mounting movable body M100 different from the mounting movable body 32 is made more realistic (for example, the display simulating the mounting movable body 32 is different modes).

Further, as shown in FIGS. 11-36 (C′) and (D′), the mounted movable body 32 has a structure in which the left and right sides of the effect section 32A are supported by the drive mechanisms 101L and 101R, and moves to the effect position. At this time, the mechanical portion 32B abuts on the upper portions of the left and right moving bodies 206 to restrict downward movement, and the vibration generated when the movement is restricted causes a reaction movement of a predetermined amount of movement.

Next, the operation mode of the mounted movable body 32 and the first pseudo movable body in the final effect will be described.

11-28 to 11-30, the effect control CPU 120 performs a movable body effect in which the mounted movable body 32 falls from the origin position to the effect position during the execution period of the determined effect (ta0 to ta10). After execution and notification of the determination of the big hit, it is possible to execute a pseudo movable body display in which the first pseudo movable body display Z100 is moved and displayed from the first initial display position to the first effect display position.

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 11-37(A), the effect control CPU 120 starts the determined effect at the timing ta0, and then allows the player to operate the stick controller 31A or the push button 31B within the operation valid period. At the detected timing ta1, the mounted movable body 32 is dropped from the origin position to the performance position. The mounted movable body 32 moves from the origin position to the performance position during a period TL1 (for example, about 300 ms) between timings ta1 and ta2, and then performs a recoil motion during a period between timings ta2 and ta3 (for example, about 700 ms).

After that, at timing ta4, the mounted movable body 32 is moved (raised) from the performance position to the origin position, and the determination of the big hit is announced. Here, a period TL3 (for example, about 1000 ms) between timings ta4 and ta5 during which the mounting movable body 32 moves from the production position to the origin position is a period between timings ta1 and ta2 during which the mounting movable body 32 moves from the origin position to the production position. Longer than TL1 (eg, about 300 ms). In other words, the speed at which the mounted movable body 32 moves from the performance position to the origin position is slower than the speed at which the mounted movable body 32 moves (falls) from the origin position to the performance position.

In this way, in the performance using the mounting movable body 32, which is a structure, when the mounting movable body 32 is moved from the origin position to the performance position in response to the detection of the player's operation, the game is played by dropping the mounting movable body 32 quickly by its own weight. While impact can be given to a person, damage to the mounted movable body 32 due to the impact can be suppressed by moving the mounted movable body 32 slowly from the performance position to the origin position.

Next, the effect control CPU 120 displays the first pseudo movable body display Z100 at the first initial display position at timing ta6 after a predetermined time has passed since the big hit confirmation notification, and the period TL2 of timing ta6 to ta7 (for example After moving and displaying from the first initial display position to the first effect display position in about 100 ms), a recoil action display is performed in a period of timing ta7 to ta8 (for example, about 900 ms).

After that, at timing ta9, the first pseudo movable object display Z100 is moved and displayed (raised) from the first effect display position to the first initial display position, and then the first pseudo movable object display Z100 is erased. Here, the period TL4 (for example, about 1000 ms) during which the first pseudo movable body display Z100 moves from the first effect display position to the first initial display position is the period ta9 to ta10, in which the first pseudo movable body display Z100 is moved to the first position. It is longer than the period TL2 (for example, approximately 100 ms) between timings ta6 and ta7 for moving and displaying from the initial display position to the first effect display position. In other words, the speed at which the first pseudo movable body display Z100 is moved and displayed from the first effect display position to the first initial display position is the same as the speed at which the first pseudo movable body display Z100 is moved from the first initial display position to the first effect display. Slower than the speed when moving and displaying to the position.

Thus, in the moving display of the first pseudo movable object display Z100, the moving display from the first initial display position to the first effect display position is more likely than the moving display from the first effect display position to the first initial display position. The first pseudo-movable object display Z100 can be moved and displayed in a more realistic manner by speeding it up in the same manner as the mounted movable object 32. FIG.

Further, as shown in FIG. 11-37(B), the amount of movement per unit time (for example, TL2) when moving and displaying the first pseudo movable body display Z100 from the first initial display position to the first effect display position Comparing L2 (movement display distance L2) with the amount of movement L1A per unit time (for example, TL2) when moving the mounted movable body 32 from the origin position to the rendering position shows that the first pseudo movable body display Z100 The movement amount L2 per unit time TL2 is larger than the movement amount L1A of the mounting movable body 32 per unit time TL2. That is, the moving display of the first pseudo movable body display Z100 from the first initial display position to the first effect display position is faster than the movement of the mounting movable body 32 from the origin position to the effect position. By doing so, the first pseudo-movable body display Z100 can provide an impact effect that is faster than the movement of the mounted movable body 32, so that the player can be surprised.

Also, as shown in FIG. 11-37(C), the amount of movement of the first recoil movement display performed when the first pseudo movable body display Z100 is moved and displayed from the first initial display position to the first effect display position. L12 is greater than the movement amount L11 of the first recoil motion display performed when the mounted movable body 32 moves and displays from the origin position to the performance position. Also, the number of recoil motion display times (eg, 6 times) of the first pseudo movable body display Z100 is greater than the number of recoil motion display times (eg, 4 times) of the mounted movable body 32 . By doing so, the first pseudo movable body display Z100 can simulate a performance similar to that of the first non-mounted movable body M100 without mounting the first non-mounted movable body M100. By displaying in an exaggerated mode the recoil motion that occurs when the first non-mounting movable body M100 moves to the first performance position, it is possible to provide a performance that leaves an impression on the player.

Further, as shown in FIGS. 11-38 (A) and (B), the movement display distance L2 from the first initial display position of the first pseudo movable body display Z100 to the first effect display position, and the first non-mounted movable body The movement display distance L2 from the first origin position of M100 to the first effect display position is the same, and the period TL2 during which the first pseudo movable object display Z100 is moved and displayed from the first initial display position to the first effect display position is It is shorter than the period TL10 for moving the first non-mounting movable body M100 from the first origin position to the first effect position (TL2<TL10). Therefore, the movement amount L2 per unit time (for example, TL2) when moving and displaying the first pseudo movable body display Z100 from the first initial display position to the first effect display position is It is larger than the amount of movement per unit time (for example, TL2) when moving from one origin position to the first effect position. That is, the movement display of the first pseudo movable body display Z100 from the first initial display position to the first effect display position is better than the movement display of the first non-mounted movable body M100 from the first origin position to the first effect position. is also fast. By doing so, the first pseudo-movable body display Z100 can perform an impact effect that is faster than the movement of the first non-mounted movable body M100, so that the player can be surprised.

Also, as shown in FIG. 11-38(C), the amount of movement of the first recoil motion display performed when the first pseudo movable body display Z100 is moved and displayed from the first initial display position to the first effect display position. L12 is the movement amount L11 of the first recoil action display performed when the mounting movable body 32 moves from the origin position to the performance position, and the movement amount L11 of the first non-mounting movable body M100 from the first origin position to the first It is greater than the movement amount L13 of the first recoil action display performed when moving and displaying to the performance position. Further, the number of recoil motion display times (eg, 6 times) of the first pseudo movable body display Z100 is greater than the number of recoil motion display times (eg, 4 times) of the mounted movable body 32 and the first non-mounted movable body M100. By doing so, the first pseudo-movable body display Z100 can simulate the effects of the first non-mounted movable body M100 and the mounted movable body 32 without mounting the first non-mounted movable body M100. In addition, by displaying the recoil motion that occurs when the first non-mounting movable body M100 moves to the first performance position or when the mounting movable body 32 moves to the performance position in an exaggerated manner, the game can be played. It is possible to provide a production that leaves an impression on people.

In addition, in the characteristic portion 241SG, the comparison between the predetermined amount of movement in the recoil motion of the mounted movable body 32 and the first non-mounted movable body M100 and the specific amount of movement in the recoil motion display of the first pseudo movable body display Z100 is Although the comparison was made between the first recoil action and the recoil action display, it is also possible to compare the second and subsequent recoil actions with the recoil action display, or the total or average movement amount of multiple recoil actions and the recoil action. It may be a comparison with a displayed total or an average moving amount.

In addition, the recoil action is an action of jumping upward due to the recoil when the movable body stops at the second position, but it also includes deformation or vibration of a predetermined portion of the movable body due to the recoil. .

Next, as shown in FIG. 11-39(A), when the mounting movable body 32 is moved from the rendering position to the origin position, or when the first non-mounting movable body M100 is moved from the first rendering position to the first origin position, In this case, since the driving sources such as the mounted movable body motors 202L, 202R and M101 are used, the effect control CPU 120 changes the control speed of the mounted movable body 32 and the first non-mounted movable body M100 from timing tb1 when the movement is started. The first period up to tb2 increases, the period from timing tb2 to timing tb3 is constant, and the second period from timing tb3 to timing tb4 decreases. That is, the mounted movable body 32 and the first non-mounted movable body M100 accelerate until the first period elapses after starting to move, then move at a constant speed, and decelerate in the second period before the stop position. Stop.

On the other hand, the speed at which the first pseudo-moving object display Z100 and the second pseudo-moving object display Z200 are moved and displayed is, as shown in FIG. Since the first period for accelerating the movement display and the second period for decelerating the movement display are unnecessary, the movement display of the first pseudo movable body display Z100 and the second pseudo movable body display Z200 is performed by the first non-mounted movable body M100. or the movement of the mounted movable body 32 can be performed more smoothly.

Next, movement display of the first pseudo-movable object display Z100 and the second pseudo-movable object display Z200 will be described with reference to FIGS. 11-40.

As shown in FIGS. 11-40 (A) to (C), when creating a moving image in which the first pseudo movable body display Z100 is moved and displayed from the first initial display position to the first effect display position, at least the first pseudo A first frame that is an input image for displaying the movable body display Z100 at the first initial display position, and a second frame that is an input image for displaying the first pseudo movable body display Z100 at the first effect display position. , is required.

On the other hand, as shown in FIGS. 11-40 (A′) to (B′), when creating a moving image in which the second pseudo movable body display Z200 is moved and displayed from the first specific initial display position to the first specific effect display position , at least a first frame which is an input image for displaying the second pseudo-movable object display Z200 at the first specific initial display position, and a first frame for displaying the second pseudo-movable object display Z200 at the first specific effect display position. A second frame, which is the input image, is required.

11-16, the movement display distance L2 from the first initial display position of the first pseudo-moving body display Z100 to the first effect display position, and the first identification of the second pseudo-moving body display Z200 The movement display distance L3 from the initial display position to the first specific effect display position, and the movement display distance L2 is longer than the movement display distance L3. While the time required to move and display to the display position is about 100 ms, it takes about 100 ms to move and display the second pseudo movable body display Z200 from the first specific initial display position to the first specific effect display position. Since the difference is 800 ms, the movement display from the first initial display position of the first pseudo-moving body display Z100 to the first effect display position is the first moving display position from the first specific initial display position of the second pseudo-moving body display Z200. 1 Faster than moving display to a specific effect display position.

Here, when the effect control CPU 120 moves and displays the first pseudo movable body display Z100 from the first initial display position to the first effect display position, the first frame shown in FIG. Although it is conceivable to display in the order of the second frame shown in 40(C), the frame rate will be low and the movement will be jerky and unnatural.

Therefore, between the first frame and the second frame, one interpolation frame shown in FIG. 11-40(B) is inserted as an input image for displaying the first pseudo movable body display Z100 at the first intermediate display position. to increase the frame rate of the moving image, and move the first pseudo movable body display Z100 from the first initial display position to the first effect display position for each display frame at the first initial display position, By performing in order of the first intermediate display position and the first effect display position, natural and smooth moving display can be performed.

In this way, even when the first pseudo movable object display Z100 is moved and displayed at high speed from the first initial display position to the first effect display position, at least one interpolation frame is inserted between the first frame and the second frame. By realizing a natural and smooth moving display, the first pseudo movable object display Z100 can be displayed moving quickly without degrading the visibility.

On the other hand, when the effect control CPU 120 moves and displays the second pseudo movable body display Z200 from the first specific initial display position to the first specific effect display position, the first frame shown in FIG. Although it is conceivable to display them in the order of the second frame shown in FIG. 11-40(B'), the frame rate will be low and the movement will be jerky and unnatural.

Therefore, between the first frame and the second frame, the second pseudo movable body display Z200 is displayed at a plurality of first intermediate display positions between the first specific initial display position and the first specific effect display position. As an input image, a plurality of interpolated frames (not shown) are inserted to increase the frame rate of the moving image to achieve a natural and smooth moving display, and the first identification of the second pseudo-moving object display Z200. Moving display from the initial display position to the first specific effect display position is performed for each display frame in the order of the first specific initial display position, each first intermediate display position, and the first specific effect display position. The pseudo-movable object display Z200 can be moved and displayed at a slower speed than the first pseudo-movable object display Z100 without lowering the visibility.

Further, for example, in the advance notice effect B, a pattern PBY-3 in which the first pseudo movable body display Z100 is displayed moving from the first initial display position to the first effect display position, or from the second initial display position to the second effect display position. Pattern PBY- in which the second pseudo movable body display Z200 is moved and displayed from the second specific initial display position to the second specific effect display position or the second intermediate effect display position when PBY-4, which is displayed to move, is executed. 1, when PBY-2 is executed, the ratio of being controlled to the big win state (big hit expectation) is different, so that the ratio of being controlled to the big win gaming state is different. The player can be made to recognize the pseudo movable body display Z200 by the difference in speed of the moving display.

In addition, a pattern PBY-3 in which the first pseudo movable body display Z100 is moved and displayed from the first initial display position to the first effect display position, and a pattern PBY-4 in which the second initial display position is moved to the second effect display position are displayed. is executed, patterns PBY-1 and PBY-2 in which the second pseudo movable body display Z200 is moved and displayed from the second specific initial display position to the second specific effect display position or the second intermediate effect display position. Since the ratio of control to the big win state (big win expectation) is higher than when is executed, the movement display of the first pseudo movable body display Z100 can be noticed.

Further, in the characteristic portion 241SG, when the image display device 5 moves and displays the first pseudo-movable body display Z100 from the first initial display position to the first effect display position and stop-displays it at the first effect display position, Although the mode of displaying the reaction motion (rebound display) of a predetermined amount of movement is illustrated, the present invention is not limited to this, and the image display as shown in FIGS. 11-34 (D) to (E) When the device 5 moves and displays the first pseudo-movable body display Z100 from the second initial display position to the second effect display position and stops and displays it at the second effect display position, a reaction movement display ( bounce display) may be performed.

Further, as shown in FIGS. 11-33(A) to (B), the image display device 5 moves and displays the second pseudo movable body display Z200 from the second specific initial display position to the second intermediate effect display position. When stop-displaying at the second intermediate effect display position, or as shown in FIGS. When moving from to the second specific effect display position and stop-displaying at the second specific effect display position, a reaction motion display (rebound display) of a predetermined amount of movement may be performed.

Further, in the announcement effect B, the recoil action display performed when the second pseudo movable body display Z200 is moved and displayed from the second specific initial display position to the second intermediate effect display position or the second specific effect display position is the preview effect. It is preferable that the amount of movement is larger than that of the reaction movement display performed when the second pseudo-movable object display Z200 moves and displays from the first specific initial display position to the first specific effect display position in the effect A. By doing so, since the advance notice effect B has a larger amount of movement than the notice effect A, it is possible to move and display in a more realistic manner.

In addition, after the pattern PBY-3 of the notice effect B or the big hit notification of the final effect, the first pseudo movable body display Z100 moves and displays from the first initial display position to the first effect display position. However, it is preferable that the amount of movement is larger than the recoil motion display performed when the first pseudo movable object display Z100 is moved and displayed from the second initial display position to the second effect display position in the pattern PBY-4 of the advance notice effect B. . By doing so, the recoil movement display becomes larger when the object is moved downward than when the object is displayed upward, so that the movement can be displayed in a more realistic manner.

(action/effect)
As described above, in the pachinko game machine 1 in the characteristic portion 241SG, the direction in which the first pseudo movable body display Z100 moves from the first initial display position to the first effect position and the mounted movable body 32 move to the origin position The direction of moving from to the rendering position is a common downward direction, and the amount of movement L2 per unit time TL2 of the first pseudo movable body display Z100 is greater than the amount of movement L1A of the mounted movable body 32 per unit time TL2. big.
According to this feature, the first pseudo-movable body display Z100 can perform an impactful effect that is faster than the movement of the mounting movable body 32, thereby giving surprise to the player.
In addition, since it is possible to move and display at a speed that is difficult to realize with the mounted movable body 32, or to move and display at a plurality of speeds, it is possible to diversify the effects.

In addition, in the characteristic part 241SG, an example is shown in which the movement display of the first pseudo movable body display Z100 and the movement speed of the mounted movable body 32 are compared, but the present invention is not limited to this. It may be a comparison of the movement display of the pseudo movable body display Z100 and the movement of the first non-mounted movable body M100, or the movement display of the second pseudo movable body display Z200 and the speed of the second non-mounted movable body M200. It may be a comparison of speed with movement. In other words, as long as the movement display of the pseudo-movable object display and the speed of the movement of the movable object are compared, the type of the pseudo-movable object display and the movable object to be compared may be changed arbitrarily.

In addition, the first pseudo movable body display Z100 is a display simulating the first non-mounted movable body M100 that performs a reaction movement of a predetermined movement amount when moving from the first origin position to the first effect position. The control CPU 120 causes the image display device 5 to vertically move the first pseudo movable body display Z100 between the first initial display position corresponding to the first origin position and the first effect display position corresponding to the first effect position. When the first pseudo-movable body display Z100 is moved and displayed from the first initial display position to the first effect display position and is stop-displayed at the first effect display position, it is moved by a predetermined amount. Recoil movement display (rebound display) is performed, and movement amount L12 of the first recoil movement display performed when the first pseudo movable object display Z100 is moved and displayed from the first initial display position to the first effect display position. is larger than the moving amount L13 of the first recoil motion display performed when the first non-mounting movable body M100 moves and displays from the first origin position to the first effect position.
According to this feature, the first pseudo-movable object display Z100 makes it possible to simulate the same effect as the first non-installable movable object M100 without installing the first non-installable movable object M100. By displaying in an exaggerated mode the recoil motion that occurs when the first non-mounting movable body M100 moves to the first performance position, it is possible to provide a performance that leaves an impression on the player.

In addition, in the characteristic portion 241SG, an example is shown in which the reaction movement display of the first pseudo movable body display Z100 and the movement amount of the reaction movement of the first non-mounted movable body M100 are compared, but the present invention is limited to this. Instead, it may be a comparison of the movement amount of the reaction movement display of the second pseudo-movable body display Z200 and the movement amount of the reaction movement of the second non-mounted movable body M200. It may be a comparison between the recoil motion display of the display Z200 and the recoil motion of the mounted movable body 32 . In other words, if it is a comparison of the amount of movement between the recoil motion display of the pseudo-movable body display and the recoil motion of the movable body, the types of the pseudo-movable body display and the movable body to be compared may be changed arbitrarily.

Further, during the variable display period of the pattern based on the variation pattern of super reach β or super reach γ, development effect A using mounted movable body 32 and development effect B using second pseudo movable body display Z200 are executed. When the development performance A is not executed and the development performance B is executed, the ratio of control to the big win game state (big win expectation) is higher.
According to this feature, it is possible to draw the player's attention to the fact that the development effect A, which is the movable object effect, and the development effect B, which is the pseudo-movable object display effect, are executed.
Incidentally, when the development effect A using the mounted movable body 32 and the development effect B using the second pseudo movable body display Z200 are executed, the development effect B is executed instead of the development effect A. The ratio of being controlled to the jackpot game state is higher than when the game is controlled to the jackpot game state at a rate of 100% when the development performance A and the development performance B are executed.

In addition, advance notice effect A that foretells the possibility (expectation) of the variable display result becoming a big hit, development effect B that informs that it will develop into a strong super reach effect, and development effect B suggest the possibility of being executed. and a development suggestion effect to be executed, and in the advance notice effect A, after moving and displaying the second pseudo movable body display Z200 from the first specific initial display position to the first specific effect display position, the first specific effect display After moving from the position to the first specific initial display position, it is hidden, and in the development effect B, after displaying the second pseudo movable body display Z200 at the first specific effect display position, from the first specific effect display position The display is hidden without moving to the first specific initial display position, and the second pseudo movable body display Z200 displayed at the first specific initial display position before execution of the development effect B is hidden. When doing so, the character image Z310 can be displayed in the display area including the first specific effect display position.
According to this feature, in the advance notice effect A, the second pseudo movable body display Z200 is displayed moving in the same manner as the movable body as a structure, so whether or not it is controlled to an advantageous state without giving the player a sense of discomfort. On the other hand, in the development suggestive effect, the display of the character image Z310 is prioritized over the movement display of the second pseudo movable body display Z200 in the same way as the movable body, and the character image Z310 is displayed from the first specific effect display position. Since it is not displayed without being returned to the first specific initial display position, the player's attention can be drawn to the suggestion of execution of the development effect B.例文帳に追加

In addition, it is possible to execute a decisive performance for informing whether or not to be controlled to the jackpot game state, and a development performance B for informing that the deterministic performance will be executed after developing into a strong super ready-to-win performance, and the development performance. In B, when the second pseudo movable body display Z200 is moved and displayed, after the second pseudo movable body display Z200 is moved and displayed from the first specific initial display position to the first specific effect display position, the first specific effect display is performed. The ready-to-win title image Z51, which is hidden without being moved from the position to the first specific initial display position and is not displayed and suggests the execution of the development effect B, is displayed in the display area including the first specific effect display position. When the first pseudo-movable object display Z100 is moved and displayed in the final effect, after the first pseudo-movable object display Z100 is moved and displayed from the first initial display position to the first effect display position, After moving and displaying from the first performance display position to the first initial display position, it is hidden.
According to this feature, prior to execution of the determination effect, the second pseudo-movable object display Z200 gives priority to the display of the suggestive image rather than the moving display of the movable object as a structure. Since it is hidden without returning from the position to the first display position, it is possible to draw the player's attention to the suggestion of execution of the final effect, while in the final effect, the first pseudo movable body display Z100 is the same as the movable body. Since the moving display is performed as shown in FIG.
In addition, in the characterizing section 241SG, the second pseudo-movable object display Z200 is displayed in a moving manner in the development effect B (specific effect), and the first pseudo-movable object display Z100 is displayed in a moving manner in the fixed effect (special effect). However, the present invention is not limited to this, and a common pseudo movable object display may be moved between the specific effect and the special effect.

In addition, the effect control CPU 120 moves the first pseudo movable body display Z100 from the first initial display position to the first effect display position for each display frame at the first initial display position, the first intermediate display position, and the first effect display position in that order, and a specific image ( For example, it is possible to display an effect image Z71) in which an image Z71A showing a plurality of broken glass pieces due to cracked glass scatters.
According to this feature, the first pseudo movable object display Z100 can be displayed moving quickly without lowering the visibility, and by emphasizing the moving display with the specific image, the moving display is favorably impressed on the player. can be attached.

In addition, the effect control CPU 120 moves the first pseudo movable body display Z100 from the first initial display position to the first effect display position for each display frame at the first initial display position, the first intermediate display position, and the first effect display position, and the moving display from the first initial display position of the first pseudo movable body display Z100 to the first effect display position is the first specific initial display of the second pseudo movable body display Z200. A pattern PBY-3 in which the first pseudo movable body display Z100 is displayed moving from the first initial display position to the first effect display position in the advance notice effect B faster than the movement display from the position to the first specific effect display position; When PBY-4 is executed to move and display from the second initial display position to the second effect display position, and when the second pseudo movable body display Z200 is moved from the second specific initial display position to the second specific effect display position or the second effect display position. The ratio of control to the big win state (big win expectation) differs between when the patterns PBY-1 and PBY-2 which are moved and displayed to the intermediate effect display position are executed.
According to this feature, it is possible to draw the player's attention to which of the first pseudo-moving body display Z100 and the second pseudo-moving body display Z200 is moved and displayed, and the ratio of control to the jackpot game state is different. A player can be made to recognize the first pseudo-moving object display Z100 and the second pseudo-moving object display Z200 by the difference in speed of movement display.
Note that, in the advance notice effect B, a pattern PBY-3 in which the first pseudo-moving object display Z100 is displayed moving from the first initial display position to the first effect display position, and a pattern PBY-3 moving from the second initial display position to the second effect display position are displayed. and when the second pseudo movable body display Z200 moves from the second specific initial display position to the second specific effect display position or the second intermediate effect display position, a big hit is achieved. The ratio of control to the state (big hit expectation) is different when the pattern PBY-3 or pattern PBY-4 is executed in the announcement effect B, the ratio of being controlled to the big hit state is 100%, and the pattern PBY- 1 or pattern PBY-2 is executed, the ratio of control to the jackpot game state is 0%, or when the pattern PBY-1 or pattern PBY-2 is executed in the advance notice performance B, the jackpot state is controlled. 100%, and when pattern PBY-3 or pattern PBY-4 is executed, the ratio controlled to the jackpot game state is 0%.

In addition, the first pseudo-movable object display Z100 and the second pseudo-movable object display Z200 are display images having not only the effect display portions Z100A and Z200A but also the mechanism display portions Z100B and Z200B, etc., so that the movable body operated by the driving mechanism can be displayed. While the body is more realistically expressed to enable the same movable body display effect as the movable body effect, the movement display is not only performed in the same manner as the movement of the movable body, but also the movable body is displayed. However, by making it possible to move the display in a manner that is difficult to realize due to reasons such as the complexity of the mechanism and the increase in cost, it is possible to suitably improve the interest of the presentation.

In addition, in the characteristic part 241SG, high-speed movement, deformation display, and return display from the performance display position to the initial display position are erased (not displayed) as a mode of movement display that is difficult to realize with a movable body. However, by realistically expressing the display mode of the pseudo-moving object display and unrealistically displaying the moving display, it is possible to provide an unexpected effect.

In particular, it is possible to hide or display the pseudo-movable body display that has been moved and displayed to the effect display position at a desired timing. During the process, it is possible to avoid visibility deterioration due to other effects images being hidden, etc., and it is possible to immediately start the next effect, increasing the degree of freedom in the effect design. Play.

In addition, the movement amount L12 of the first recoil motion display performed when the first pseudo movable body display Z100 is moved and displayed from the first initial display position to the first effect display position is greater than that of the first non-mounted movable body M100. is greater than the amount of movement L13 of the first recoil action display performed when the movement is displayed from the first origin position to the first effect position, the first non-mounted movable body M100 is displayed by the first pseudo movable body display Z100. can simulate a performance similar to that of the first non-mounting movable body M100 without mounting the , and exaggerate the recoil action that occurs when the first non-mounting movable body M100 moves to the first performance position. By displaying in such a mode, it is possible to provide an effect that leaves an impression on the player.

Also, since the movement display distance L2 from the first initial display position to the first effect display position is longer than the movement distance L1 from the origin position to the effect position, the first pseudo movable object display Z100 is installed. Since the moving speed is faster and the moving distance is longer than that of the movable body 32, it is possible to provide an effect that leaves an impression on the player.

In addition, the pseudo movable body display includes effect display portions Z100A and Z200A and mechanism display portions Z100B and Z200B. By reaching the first effect display position first, the pseudo movable body display can be moved and displayed in a more realistic manner.

Further, since the movement amount L2 per unit time TL2 of the first pseudo movable object display Z100 is larger than the movement amount L1A per unit time TL2 of the mounted movable body 32, the first pseudo movable object display Z100 can be made more realistic. can be moved and displayed in various modes.

In addition, the movement period of the mounted movable body 32 between the origin position and the rendering position includes a first period during which the speed increases and a second period during which the speed decreases, and the movement display of the pseudo movable body display. Since the period does not include the first period and the second period, the movement display of the pseudo movable body display can be performed more smoothly than the movement of the movable body.

In addition, after moving and displaying the first pseudo movable object display Z100 to the first effect position, the effect control CPU 120 performs light emission of the mounted movable body LED 208 and light emission display of the light emission display section Z108A at substantially the same cycle. , the player can be made to pay attention to the first pseudo-movable object display Z100 moved and displayed at the first effect display position.

In addition, the effect control CPU120 does not light-emitting the light-emitting display section Z108A when the first pseudo-moving body display Z100 is being moved and displayed, so that the incomplete first pseudo-moving body display Z100 being moved and displayed can be seen. By not standing up, it is possible to suppress the deterioration of the production effect.

In addition, after moving and displaying the first pseudo movable object display Z100 to the first effect position, the effect control CPU 120 performs light emission of the mounted movable body LED 208 and light emission display of the light emission display section Z108A at substantially the same cycle. , the first pseudo movable object display Z100 can be moved and displayed in a more realistic manner.

Further, the effect control CPU 120 can move and display the second pseudo movable body display Z200 from the second specific initial display position to the second intermediate effect display position or the second specific effect display position. The pseudo-movable body display Z200 is moved downward from the first specific initial display position to the first specific effect display position, and the second pseudo-movable body display Z200 is moved from the second specific initial display position to the second specific effect in advance notice effect B. Since one pseudo-movable body display can be moved and displayed from a plurality of display positions by being different from the rightward movement display to the performance display position, the player can enjoy an unexpected performance that is difficult to realize with a movable body. can be provided to

Further, the effect control CPU 120 moves and displays the first pseudo movable body display Z100 from the first initial display position to the first effect display position, and then moves and displays the first pseudo movable object display Z100 from the first initial display position to the first effect display position.

Next, Modification 3 of the characteristic portion 241SG will be described with reference to FIG. 11-43. 11-43, (A) to (C) are diagrams showing a modified example 3 of the characteristic portion 241SG.

In the characterizing section 241SG, the effect control CPU 120 exemplifies a form in which the first pseudo-moving body display Z100 and the second pseudo-moving body display Z200 can be moved and displayed between the first display position and the second display position. , The present invention is not limited to this, and is not limited to those capable of reciprocating display in one direction, such as the vertical direction or the horizontal direction. A) As shown in (B), after moving and displaying the first pseudo movable body display Z100 from the first initial display position to the first effect display position, as shown in FIG. It may be possible to move and display in a direction different from the direction of moving and displaying from the initial display position to the first effect display position.

As shown in FIG. 11-43(C), in the first effect display position, only the effect display part Z200A is vertically rotated around a rotation axis pointing in the horizontal direction. It is preferable to be able to perform various forms of movement display, such as different rotational movement display and movement display in a form of movement in a direction different from the one direction (for example, the depth direction). By doing so, it is possible to provide the player with an unexpected performance that is difficult to achieve with a movable body.

Although the characteristic portion 241SG in the embodiment of the present invention has been described above with reference to the drawings, the specific configuration is not limited to these examples, and changes and additions may be made within the scope of the present invention. is also included in the present invention.

(description of variations and applications)
In the characteristic part 241SG, the form in which the mounting movable body 32 is applied as the movable body mounted on the pachinko game machine 1 is illustrated, but the present invention is not limited to this, and a plurality of mounting movable bodies other than the mounting movable body 32 are illustrated. A movable body may be mounted on the pachinko game machine 1. - 特許庁In addition, not only the board-side movable body provided on the game board 2, but also the frame-side movable body provided in the game machine frame 3 or an opening/closing door capable of opening and closing the game machine frame 3 may be used. A pseudo-movable body display simulating a side movable body may be movable and displayed. Also, as the board-side movable body, a pseudo-movable display imitating a variable winning device provided in relation to the game may be displayed.

In addition, in the characteristic part 241SG, as the movable bodies that were supposed to be mounted on the pachinko game machine 1 but were not mounted, a form was exemplified in which the first non-mounted movable body M100 and the second non-mounted movable body M200 were applied. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the movable bodies other than the first non-mounting movable body M100 and the second non-mounting movable body M200 were planned to be mounted on the pachinko game machine 1, but are not mounted. good too.

Further, in the characterizing section 241SG, when erasing the first pseudo-moving body display Z100 and the second pseudo-moving body display Z200, the embodiment is exemplified in which they are hidden by gradual fading out. It is not limited to this, and an effect image may be displayed to emphasize the deletion, or deletion may be performed by a method other than these.

Further, in the characteristic portion 241SG, the moving distance L1 from the origin position of the mounting movable body 32 to the effect position is the moving display distance L2 from the first initial display position to the first effect display position of the first pseudo movable body display Z100. , and when the mounted movable body 32 moves and when the first pseudo movable body display Z100 moves and displays, the common effect image Z71 in which the glass cracks and the glass fragments scatter is displayed. Although the mode of outputting sound effects has been exemplified, the present invention is not limited to this. An effect image that is longer than the movement display distance L2 from the initial display position to the first effect display position and has different modes when the mounted movable body 32 moves and when the first pseudo movable body display Z100 is moved and displayed. A different sound effect may be output along with the display. By doing so, the movement display of the pseudo movable body display can be used to highlight the movement of the mounting movable body 32 .

In addition, in the characteristic portion 241SG, during the variable display period of super reach, the movement of the mounted movable body 32 can be executed up to two times, the development effect A and the fixed effect, and the movement display of the first pseudo movable body display Z100 is , the advance notice effect B and the fixed effect can be executed a maximum of two times, and the moving display of the second pseudo-moving body display Z200 can be executed up to four times, the notice effect A, the notice effect B, the development suggestive effect, and the development effect B. Although one embodiment has been exemplified, the present invention is not limited to this, and the number of execution times of the movement display of the movable body and the display of the pseudo-movable body may be a number other than the number of times described above.

Further, when the movable body can be moved a first number of times in one variable display period, the pseudo movable body display can be moved a second number of times, which is larger than the first number of times, in one variable display period. preferable. By doing so, instead of increasing the chances of executing the movable body production too much and lowering the expectation of the big win, by increasing the opportunities of executing the pseudo-moving body display, the production is reduced. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the interest from decreasing.

In addition to the above effects, for example, when the symbol is promoted in a re-lottery after the big hit is announced, or during the big hit, the pseudo movable body display may be displayed in a moving manner. The movable object display may be a pseudo movable object display different from the first pseudo movable object display Z100 and the second pseudo movable object display Z200.

Further, the advance notice performance A is applied as a special suggestive performance suggesting that the player will be controlled in an advantageous state, and the advanced performance B is applied as a notification performance for notifying contents advantageous to the player, so that the notification performance is executed. A development suggesting performance is applied as a prescribed performance to suggest, a decision performance is applied as a special performance for notifying that the control is in an advantageous state, and the special performance is suggested to be executed before the special performance is executed. Although the form in which the notice effect B is applied as the specific effect has been exemplified, the present invention is not limited to this, and various effects other than the above can be applied. Moreover, although these various effects can be executed in one variable display period of super reach, the effects may be executed over a plurality of variable display periods.

In addition, the content that is advantageous to the player is, in the pachinko machine 1, pseudo-runs, big wins, small wins, reach, holding runs, chance-up effects, pre-reading notice effects, time-saving attachment loss, ceiling time-saving control, etc., which will be described later. , variable display results, controls and effects may be included. In the slot machine, chance zone (CZ) winning, assist time (AT) winning, replay time (RT) winning, bonus winning, and the like may be included.

In addition, in the characteristic portion 241SG, when the display of the first pseudo-movable body display Z100 and the second pseudo-movable body display Z200 is started, the game effect lamps 9 provided on the game board 2 and the game machine frame 3 are turned on. By lowering the luminance or turning off the light, the display of the first pseudo-moving object display Z100 and the second pseudo-moving object display Z200 are made conspicuous, while the display of the first pseudo-moving object display Z100 and the second pseudo-moving object display Z200 are displayed. is erased, the brightness of the game effect lamp 9 provided on the game board 2 or the game machine frame 3 is increased or turned on so that the first pseudo-movable object display Z100 or the second pseudo-movable object display Z200 can be played. can distract a person.

In addition, in the characteristic portion 241SG, while the light amount of the game effect lamp 9 provided on the game board 2 and the game machine frame 3 can be adjusted by the player's operation, the first pseudo movable body display Z100 can be adjusted. It is preferable that the light amount adjustment of the light emitting display section Z108A and the light emitting display sections Z208A to Z208E of the second pseudo-movable body display Z200 be disabled by the player's operation. By doing so, it is possible to prevent the appearance of the pseudo movable body display from being spoiled or becoming unnoticeable.

Further, in the characterizing portion 241SG, when the second pseudo movable body display Z200 displayed at the first specific initial display position is hidden in the development suggestive effect, the display area including the first specific effect display position Although the character image Z310 is preferentially displayed as the notification-related image, the present invention is not limited to this. Images other than character images (for example, images simulating smoke, fog, waves, etc.) may be used, if any.

In addition, in the characterizing part 241SG, in the development effect B, the ready-to-win title image Z51 is displayed in the mode at the start of display as a suggestive image suggesting execution of the final effect, but the present invention is limited to this. However, as long as the suggestive image suggests the execution of the determined effect, an image other than the reach title image (for example, a character image that appears in the strong super reach effect or determined effect) may be used. .

Further, in the characterizing section 241SG, the first pseudo-moving object display Z100 and the second pseudo-moving object display Z200 are displayed in separate periods, but the present invention is not limited to this. Instead, a plurality of pseudo movable object displays may be moved and displayed during a common period. In this case, for example, the movement displayable range of the first pseudo-moving body display Z100 and the movement displayable range of the second pseudo-moving body display Z200 overlap, and the first pseudo-moving body display Z100 is displayed in the overlap region. and the second pseudo-movable object display Z200, one of the first pseudo-movable object display Z100 and the second pseudo-movable object display Z200 is displayed in a display layer closer to the viewer than the other. Since it is possible to make the player aware of the front-rear positional relationship, it is possible to realize a more realistic performance.

Further, in the characteristic portion 241SG, consideration is given to the fact that the mechanism display portions Z100B and Z200B of the first pseudo-movable object display Z100 and the second pseudo-movable object display Z200 are cut off at the edges of the display area of the image display device 5. Then, in the display area of the image display device 5, a mounting movable body, a center decorative frame, etc. may be arranged so as to cover the portion where the display of the mechanism display part of the pseudo movable body display starts. The part where the display of the mechanism display part of the pseudo movable body display is started by moving the body may be made difficult to see.

In addition, in the characterizing portion 241SG, the display result of the variable display includes "time saving", but the CPU 103 can set predetermined conditions (for example, the flag stored in the RAM 102 in the initialization process of step S6, Clear processing for clearing the counter and buffer, control to a big win game state, or setting the display result to a time-saving loss) is performed a specified number of times (e.g., 900 times, etc.) ) Based on what has been done, it may be possible to execute the ceiling time-saving control to control to the time-saving state without going through the jackpot game state. In addition, the internal count of the specified number of times is reset when the predetermined condition is established, and the number of times of time saving in the time saving state by the ceiling time saving control (for example, 900 times) is the number of times of time saving in the normal time saving state (for example, 100 times). can be different.

When the ceiling time saving control as described above is executed and the number of executions of the variable display reaches the specified number of times without the predetermined condition being satisfied, the effect control CPU 120 controls the first pseudo movable body display Z100 and the second A movement display of a pseudo-moving body display such as the pseudo-moving body display Z200 may be executable. In this way, it may be possible to execute the movement display of the pseudo movable body display in each notification such as the notification of the big hit, the notification of the loss with the time saving, the notification of the ceiling time saving control, etc. In each notification, the type of the pseudo movable body display and the movement display Modes and the like may be changed.

In addition, in the characteristic portion 241SG, the first pseudo movable body display Z100 is exemplified to move and display as a notification of a big hit, but the present invention is not limited to this, and the variable display result is a small hit or time saving. In the case of losing or when the above-described ceiling time saving control is executed, the movement display of the first pseudo movable body display Z100 and the second pseudo movable body display Z200 informs of small hits and time saving loss and ceiling time saving control On the other hand, if the result of the variable display is a big hit, the movement of the mounting movable body 32 may be used to notify the big win.

In addition, when the display result of the variable display is a small hit or a time-saving loss, and when the display result of the variable display is a big hit, a common type of pseudo-moving body display is used to notify. You may make it the aspect differ. In addition, when the display result of the variable display is a small hit or a loss with a time saving, and when the display result of the variable display is a big hit, the pseudo-moving body display is used to notify. It can be different.

In addition, in the characteristic portion 241SG, as a pachinko game machine, a so-called one type of pachinko game machine that can be controlled to a variable probability state after the end of the jackpot game is exemplified, but the present invention is not limited to this. It may be a so-called 1 type 2 type game machine that can be controlled to a big win game state by generating a V prize triggered by a small win in a time saving state after the end of the big win game, and the game performance can be changed in various ways. be.

Further, in the above-described embodiment, the pachinko game machine 1 or the like is exemplified as an example of the game machine, but the present invention is not limited to this. While the number of balls enclosed in a circulative manner inside the machine and lent out in response to a player's request for lending and the number of prize balls given according to winning are added, the number of game balls used in the game is increased. The present invention can also be applied to a so-called enclosed game machine in which the amount is subtracted and stored. Since scores and points are given to the player instead of game balls in these enclosed type game machines, the given scores and points correspond to game value.

Further, in the above-described embodiment, a spherical game ball (pachinko ball) is used as an example of the game medium, but the game medium is not limited to a spherical game medium. It may be a medium.

Further, in the above embodiment, a pachinko gaming machine is used as an example of a gaming machine. In addition, one game is completed by deriving a variable display result to a variable display device capable of variable display of a plurality of types of individually identifiable symbols, and according to the variable display result derived to the variable display device. It can also be applied to slot machines in which prizes can be generated.
