As an example, the predetermined performance is an ending performance that makes it possible to recognize the end of the jackpot game. The jackpot game is ended as the ending time elapses. In the following explanation, the period from the start of the jackpot game until the opening time elapses is referred to as the opening period, and the period from the end of the opening period until the end of the final round game is referred to as the round period, and the round period ends. The period from when the jackpot game ends is sometimes referred to as the ending period.

The functions of the pachinko gaming machine 10 will be explained.
The pachinko gaming machine 10 includes a probability variation function (hereinafter referred to as probability variation function).
The probability variation function is a function for varying the probability of winning a jackpot (hereinafter referred to as jackpot probability) in the special symbol winning lottery. The pachinko game machine 10 includes a low probability state in which the variable probability function does not operate, and a high probability state in which the variable probability function operates, as states in which the jackpot probability may differ. A high probability state has a higher jackpot probability than a low probability state. In a high probability state, the jackpot probability is higher than in a low probability state. The high probability state is an advantageous state for the player because it becomes easier to win a jackpot in the special symbol winning lottery. The high probability state is a so-called "probability variable state (probability variable state)."

The pachinko game machine 10 includes a ball entry assist function.
The ball entry assisting function is a function for assisting the player to enter the second starting port 13. The pachinko game machine 10 has two states in which the probability of a game ball entering the second starting port 13 is different: a low ball entry rate state in which the ball entry assist function does not operate, and a high ball entry rate state in which the ball entry assist function operates. and. In the high ball entry rate state, the probability that the game ball will enter the second starting port 13 is higher than in the low ball entry rate state. In the high ball entry rate state, the probability that the game ball enters the second starting port 13 increases. The high ball entry rate state is an advantageous state for the player (easy ball entry state) because the game ball enters the second starting port 13 easily.

For example, the high ball entry rate state can be achieved by performing one control arbitrarily selected from among the three controls described below, or by performing a combination of a plurality of controls. The first control is normal symbol fluctuation time shortening control that shortens the fluctuation time of the normal game compared to the low ball entry rate state. The second control is normal symbol probability variation control that changes the probability of winning a normal winning lottery (normal winning probability) to a higher probability than when the ball entry rate is low. The third control is an open time extension control that makes the total open time of the second starting port 13 in one normal winning game longer than in the low ball entry rate state. The opening time extension control is a control for increasing the number of openings of the second starting port 13 in one normal winning game than in a low ball entry rate state, and a control for opening the second starting port 13 once in a normal winning game. It is preferable that at least one of the controls is such that the time is made longer than in the low ball entry rate state.

The high ball entry rate state may be realized by combining the fourth control described below. The fourth control is a special symbol fluctuation time shortening control that makes the special game fluctuation time (for example, average fluctuation time) shorter than that in the low ball entry rate state. When performing special symbol fluctuation time shortening control, a high ball entry rate state becomes a special symbol fluctuation time shortening state (time saving state), while a low ball entry rate state becomes a special symbol non-fluctuation time shortening state (non-fluctuation time shortening state). (time saving state).

Next, various processes performed by the main CPU 41 will be explained.
The power-on process will be explained.
The main CPU 41 executes a power-on process when activated by the start of power supply. In the power-on process, the main CPU 41 determines whether the RAM clear switch 46 is operated based on the operation signal of the RAM clear switch 46. When the RAM clear switch 46 is operated, the main CPU 41 initializes part of the backup information. As an example, the main CPU 41 initializes gaming information among the backup information, but does not initialize base information. After initializing a portion of the backup information, the main CPU 41 stores in the output buffer of the main RAM 43 a control command (hereinafter referred to as an initialization command) that can specify that a portion of the backup information has been initialized. As an example, the control command stored in the output buffer is output to the sub-board 50 when an output condition is satisfied. As an example, one control command is output to the sub-board 50 each time the output condition is satisfied. As an example, the output condition is established every predetermined control period (for example, 16 ms). The control commands stored in the output buffer are an example of backup information. The control command stored in the output buffer is an example of game information. Thereafter, the main CPU 41 ends the power-on process. When the RAM clear switch 46 is not operated, the main CPU 41 does not initialize all of the backup information, and issues a control command (hereinafter referred to as a return command) that can specify that all of the backup information has not been initialized. is stored in the output buffer of the main RAM 43. Thereafter, the main CPU 41 ends the power-on process. In the following description, when simply referring to an output buffer, it refers to the output buffer of the main RAM 43.

Next, timer interrupt processing performed at every predetermined control period (for example, 4 ms) will be explained. As an example, the timer interrupt process includes a special symbol input process and a special symbol start process.

The special symbol input process will be explained.
In the special symbol input process, the main CPU 41 determines whether the game ball has entered the first starting port 12 based on whether a detection signal has been input from the first starting sensor SE1. When the game ball enters the first starting port 12, the main CPU 41 determines whether the first pending number stored in the main RAM 43 is less than the upper limit number. When the first number of reservations is less than the upper limit number, the main CPU 41 updates the first number of reservations by adding one. In this way, the suspension condition for the first special game can be satisfied when the first suspension number is less than the upper limit number and the game ball is detected by the first starting sensor SE1. Subsequently, the main CPU 41 controls the first reservation display device 19c to display information that allows identification of the updated first reservation number. The main CPU 41 stores in an output buffer a control command (hereinafter referred to as a first pending number command) that can specify the first pending number after addition.

Next, the main CPU 41 obtains a random number generated by the random number generation circuit 44, and stores random number information based on the obtained random number in the main RAM 43. For example, the random numbers include a winning random number used for a special symbol winning lottery, a winning pattern random number used for determining a winning symbol, and a fluctuation pattern random number used for determining a fluctuation pattern. The main CPU 41 stores the random number information so that it is possible to specify that the random number information is for the first special game and to specify the storage order of the random number information. The random number information may be the acquired random number itself, or may be information obtained by processing the random number using a predetermined method. By storing the random number information used for the first special game in the main RAM 43, the pachinko gaming machine 10 can suspend the execution of the first special game until the start condition for the first special game is satisfied.

The main CPU 41 stores the random number information for the first special game in the main RAM 43, when the game ball has not entered the first starting port 12, and when the first reserved number is not less than the upper limit number, the main CPU 41 stores the random number information for the first special game in the main RAM 43; Based on whether or not a detection signal is input from the second starting sensor SE2, it is determined whether the game ball has entered the second starting port 13. When the game ball has entered the second starting port 13, the main CPU 41 determines whether the second pending number stored in the main RAM 43 is less than the upper limit number. When the second pending number is less than the upper limit number, the main CPU 41 updates the second pending number by adding one. The main CPU 41 controls the second reservation display device 19d to display information that can specify the second reservation number after addition. The main CPU 41 stores in the output buffer a control command (hereinafter referred to as a second pending number command) that can specify the second pending number after addition. The second special game suspension condition can be satisfied when the second suspension number is less than the upper limit number and the game ball is detected by the second starting sensor SE2.

Next, the main CPU 41 obtains a random number generated within the main board 40 and causes the main RAM 43 to store random number information based on the obtained random number. The main CPU 41 stores the random number information so that the random number information is used for the second special game and the order in which the random number information is stored can be specified. By storing the random number information used for the second special game in the main RAM 43, the pachinko gaming machine 10 can suspend its execution until the start conditions for the second special game are satisfied. When the random number information for the second special game is stored in the main RAM 43, when the game ball has not entered the second starting port 13, and when the second pending number is not less than the upper limit number, the main CPU 41 The symbol input process ends.

Next, the special symbol start process will be explained.
The main CPU 41 determines whether the special game starting conditions are satisfied. The main CPU 41 makes an affirmative determination when neither a jackpot game nor a special game is in progress, but a negative determination when a jackpot game or a special game is in progress. If the special game start conditions are not satisfied, the main CPU 41 ends the special symbol start process. If the special game start condition is satisfied, the main CPU 41 determines whether the second pending number is greater than zero.

If the second pending number is greater than zero, the main CPU 41 performs processing to execute the second special game. Specifically, the main CPU 41 subtracts 1 from the second pending number and updates it. The main CPU 41 controls the second reservation display device 19d to display information that allows identification of the second reservation number after subtraction. The main CPU 41 stores in the output buffer a second pending number command that can specify the second pending number after subtraction. Next, the main CPU 41 acquires from the main RAM 43 the first stored random number information among the random number information for the second special game. The main CPU 41 uses a winning random number specified from the acquired random number information to perform a jackpot lottery (jackpot determination) to determine whether or not to win the jackpot. The main CPU 41 performs a jackpot lottery with a jackpot probability according to the current probability state.

If the jackpot is won, the main CPU 41 performs jackpot fluctuation processing. In the jackpot variation process, the main CPU 41 performs a jackpot symbol lottery using a winning symbol random number that can be specified from the random number information, and determines a jackpot symbol to be stopped and displayed in the second special game. The main CPU 41 performs a variation pattern determination lottery using variation pattern random numbers that can be specified from the random number information, and determines a variation pattern from among a plurality of jackpot variation patterns. After that, the main CPU 41 ends the special symbol start process. As an example, the jackpot variation pattern includes a jackpot variation pattern that specifies the content of variation in which a jackpot symbol combination is finally stopped and displayed after NR production in a performance game. As an example, the jackpot variation pattern includes a jackpot variation pattern that specifies the content of variation in which a jackpot symbol combination is finally stopped and displayed after SR production in a performance game.

If the jackpot is not won, the main CPU 41 performs a loss variation process. In the losing variation process, the main CPU 41 determines losing symbols to be stopped and displayed in the second special game. The main CPU 41 performs a variation pattern determination lottery using variation pattern random numbers that can be specified from the random number information, and determines a variation pattern from among a plurality of outlier variation patterns. After that, the main CPU 41 ends the special symbol start process. As an example, the losing variation pattern includes a losing variation pattern that specifies a variation content in which a winning symbol combination is finally stopped and displayed without going through a reach effect in a production game. As an example, the losing variation pattern includes a losing variation pattern that specifies the content of variation in which a winning symbol combination is finally stopped and displayed after an NR performance in a presentation game. As an example, the losing variation pattern includes a losing variation pattern that specifies the content of variation in which a winning symbol combination is finally stopped and displayed after an SR performance in a performance game.

If the second number of reservations is zero, the main CPU 41 determines whether the first number of reservations is greater than zero. When the first special reservation number is zero, the main CPU 41 determines whether or not to store the standby command in the output buffer based on the output information stored in the main RAM 43. The output information is information that can specify whether or not the standby command has been output. The standby command is a control command that can be identified as being controlled by the standby part. The standby part is an example of the progress part of the gaming machine. The pachinko game machine 10 is configured to include a plurality of progress parts. As an example, the progress part of the gaming machine includes a variable part in which a variable game is being executed. As an example, the progress part of the gaming machine includes a jackpot part in which a jackpot game is being executed. That is, as an example, the progress part of the gaming machine includes a standby part, a variable part, and a jackpot part. As an example, the standby part indicates a state where a variable game is not being executed and a jackpot game is not being executed.

As an example, when the main CPU 41 specifies that the standby command has been output from the output information of the main RAM 43, the main CPU 41 ends the special symbol start process without storing the standby command in the output buffer. As an example, when the main CPU 41 determines from the output information in the main RAM 43 that the standby command has not been output, the main CPU 41 stores the standby command in the output buffer. Next, the main CPU 41 updates the output completion information in the main RAM 43 so that it can be specified that the standby command has been output. After that, the main CPU 41 ends the special symbol start process.

If the first pending number is greater than zero, the main CPU 41 performs processing to execute the first special game. Specifically, the main CPU 41 subtracts 1 from the first pending number and updates it. The main CPU 41 controls the first reservation display device 19c to display information that allows identification of the first reservation number after subtraction. The main CPU 41 stores in the output buffer a first pending number command that can specify the first pending number after subtraction. Next, the main CPU 41 acquires from the main RAM 43 the first stored random number information among the random number information for the first special game. The main CPU 41 uses a winning random number specified from the acquired random number information to perform a jackpot lottery (jackpot determination) to determine whether or not to win a jackpot. The main CPU 41 performs a jackpot lottery with a jackpot probability according to the current probability state.

If the jackpot is won, the main CPU 41 performs jackpot fluctuation processing. In the jackpot variation process, the main CPU 41 performs a jackpot symbol lottery using a winning symbol random number that can be specified from the random number information, and determines a jackpot symbol to be stopped and displayed in the first special game. The main CPU 41 performs a variation pattern determination lottery using variation pattern random numbers that can be specified from the random number information, and determines a variation pattern from among a plurality of jackpot variation patterns. After that, the main CPU 41 ends the special symbol start process.

If the jackpot is not won, the main CPU 41 performs a loss variation process. In the losing variation process, the main CPU 41 determines losing symbols to be stopped and displayed in the first special game. The main CPU 41 performs a variation pattern determination lottery using variation pattern random numbers that can be specified from the random number information, and determines a variation pattern from among a plurality of outlier variation patterns. After that, the main CPU 41 ends the special symbol start process. The main CPU 41 stores the fluctuation start command and special symbol command in the output buffer in the jackpot fluctuation processing and the loss fluctuation processing. The fluctuation start command is a control command that can specify the fluctuation pattern determined in each fluctuation process and the start of the fluctuation game. The special symbol command is a control command that can specify the special symbol (jackpot symbol or losing symbol) determined in each variation process. As an example, the fluctuation start command and the special symbol command are different control commands when the fluctuation processing of the first special game is executed and when the fluctuation processing of the second special game is executed. In the jackpot variation process and the loss variation process, the main CPU 41 updates the output information in the main RAM 43 so that it can be specified that the standby command has not been output.

When the special symbol start process is finished, the main CPU 41 causes the first special game or the second special game to be executed by a process different from the special symbol start process. When executing the first special game, the main CPU 41 controls the first special symbol display device 19a to start displaying a predetermined symbol in a variable manner. The main CPU 41 measures the variation time defined in the variation pattern. The main CPU 41 controls the first special symbol display device 19a to stop displaying the special symbol determined in the special symbol start process when the variation time defined in the variation pattern has elapsed. When the variation time set in the variation pattern has elapsed, the main CPU 41 stores in the output buffer a control command (hereinafter referred to as a variation end command) that can specify the end of the variation game.

When executing the second special game, the main CPU 41 controls the second special symbol display device 19b to start variable display of predetermined symbols. The main CPU 41 measures the variation time defined in the variation pattern. The main CPU 41 controls the second special symbol display device 19b to stop displaying the special symbol determined in the special symbol start process when the variation time defined in the variation pattern has elapsed. The main CPU 41 stores the variation end command in the output buffer when the variation time defined in the variation pattern has elapsed. As described above, the main CPU 41 is configured to carry out a lottery by executing the special symbol input process and the special symbol start process, taking the entry of the game ball into the starting hole as an opportunity. The main CPU 41 is an example of a variable game execution unit that executes a variable game.

The jackpot game process will be explained.
The jackpot game process is a process for awarding a jackpot game. When the main CPU 41 stops and displays the jackpot symbols in the special game, the main CPU 41 executes the jackpot game process after the special game ends. The main CPU 41 specifies the type of jackpot game based on the jackpot symbol (namely, jackpot type) determined in the special symbol start process. The main CPU 41 awards the specified type of jackpot game. As an example, the jackpot includes a first jackpot, a second jackpot, and a third jackpot. The first jackpot is a jackpot based on the first jackpot symbol among the jackpot symbols. The second jackpot is a jackpot based on a second jackpot symbol that is different from the first jackpot symbol. The third jackpot is a jackpot based on a third jackpot symbol that is different from the first jackpot symbol and the second jackpot symbol. In the following description, the jackpot game based on the first jackpot will be referred to as the first jackpot game, the jackpot game based on the second jackpot will be referred to as the second jackpot game, and the jackpot game based on the third jackpot will be referred to as the third jackpot game.

First, the main CPU 41 stores in the output buffer a control command (hereinafter referred to as opening command) that can specify the start of the opening time. As an example, the opening command may include information that can identify the type of jackpot game. When the opening time has elapsed, the main CPU 41 performs processing for executing a round game. That is, the main CPU 41 controls each of the first special solenoid SL2 and the second special solenoid SL3 using the specified opening control data for the jackpot game, and opens the first big winning hole 14 or the second big winning hole 15. to open. As an example, no matter which type of jackpot game is specified, the main CPU 41 controls the second special solenoid SL3 in a specific round game (for example, the fourth round game), and controls the second special solenoid SL3 to Open 15. On the other hand, the main CPU 41 controls the second special solenoid SL3 so that the second big prize opening 15 opens in different opening modes depending on the type of the specified jackpot game. As an example, when the main CPU 41 specifies the first jackpot game or the second jackpot game, in the specific round game, after opening the second jackpot 15 for a predetermined first time, the main CPU 41 opens the second jackpot 15 for an extremely short period of time (for example, , 100ms), the second grand prize opening 15 is closed. After that, the main CPU 41 controls the second special solenoid SL3 to open the second big prize opening 15 until the number condition or the time condition is satisfied. As an example, when the main CPU 41 specifies the third jackpot game, in the specific round game, after opening the second big winning hole 15 for a first time, the main CPU 41 opens the second big winning hole 15 for a predetermined second time. will be closed. After that, the main CPU 41 controls the second special solenoid SL3 to open the second big prize opening 15 until the number condition or the time condition is satisfied. As an example, no matter which type of jackpot game is specified, in a non-specific round game, the main CPU 41 controls the first jackpot so that the first jackpot 14 is opened until the number condition or the time condition is satisfied. Controls special solenoid SL2.

When executing a non-specific round game, the main CPU 41 controls the distribution solenoid SL4 so that the distribution shutter continues to take the second state. On the other hand, when executing a specific round game, the main CPU 41 controls the distribution solenoid SL4 using the specified operation control data for the jackpot game, and causes the distribution shutter to take the first state. As an example, no matter which type of jackpot game is specified, when the main CPU 41 executes a specific round game, when a third time has elapsed after the start of the specific round game, when a fourth time has elapsed, The distribution solenoid SL4 is controlled so that the distribution shutter takes the first state with the upper limit being until the time elapses. As an example, the third time is longer than the first time and shorter than the second time. As an example, the fourth time is a shorter time than the second time. As an example, each of the third time and the fourth time is determined such that the sum thereof is less than or equal to the sum of the first time and the second time. That is, in a specific round game, after the second big prize opening 15 is closed as the first time elapses, the second big prize opening 15 is opened when an extremely short time has passed; In the second jackpot game, the distribution shutter can take the first state when the second jackpot 15 is open. Therefore, in the first jackpot game and the second jackpot game, when the second jackpot 15 is open and the distributing shutter is in the first state, the second jackpot 15 is targeted. By hitting the game ball with the button, the game ball passes through a specific area. On the other hand, in the specific round game, after the second big prize opening 15 is closed as the first time elapses, in the third jackpot game in which the second big prize opening 15 is opened when the second time elapses, The distribution shutter does not take the first state when the second big prize opening 15 is open. Therefore, in the third jackpot game, even if the game ball is launched aiming at the second big prize opening 15, the game ball does not pass through the specific area.

The main CPU 41 performs processing for executing such a round game until the number of round games determined for the jackpot game is completed. As an example, the first jackpot game, the second jackpot game, and the third jackpot game are all set to be played ten times. As an example, in each round game, it is determined that 10 game balls enter the first big winning hole 14 or the second big winning hole 15 as a number condition. As an example, the time condition for each round game is that 29 seconds must elapse. Therefore, in the first jackpot game, second jackpot game, and third jackpot game, a total of 100 game balls (10 times x 10 balls) enter the first jackpot 14 or the second jackpot 15. You can expect it to hit the ball. Here, if the number of prize balls set in the first big winning hole 14 and the number of prize balls set in the second big winning hole 15 are 15, then the first jackpot game, the second jackpot game, and The number of prize balls that can be expected to be awarded in the third jackpot game (hereinafter referred to as the expected number of balls) is 1,500. Each time the main CPU 41 starts a round game, it stores in an output buffer a control command (hereinafter referred to as a round command) that can specify the start of a jackpot round game. When the final round game ends, the main CPU 41 stores a control command (hereinafter referred to as an ending start command) that can specify the start of the ending time in an output buffer. When the ending time elapses, the main CPU 41 ends the jackpot game. The main CPU 41 stores a control command (hereinafter referred to as an ending end command) that can specify the passage of the ending time in an output buffer. Thereby, when a jackpot is won in the winning lottery, a variable game can be executed based on the result of the winning lottery, and a jackpot game is awarded based on the result of the winning lottery after the variable game ends.

A game state transition process for shifting the game state will be explained.
The game state transition process includes a probability transition process that transitions the probability state, and a ball entry rate transition process that changes the ball entry rate state. As an example, the game state transition process is executed after the jackpot game process ends. As an example, in the game state transition process, the processes are executed in the order of ball entry rate transition process and probability transition process.

First, the entry rate transition process will be explained.
In the ball entry rate transition process, the main CPU 41 sets an activation flag in the main RAM 43 when the first jackpot game, the second jackpot game, or the third jackpot game ends. That is, when the first jackpot game, the second jackpot game, or the third jackpot game ends, the main CPU 41 controls the ball to a high ball entry rate state. The main CPU 41 updates the value of the execution counter stored in the main RAM 43 every time a special game is started after the end of the second jackpot game or the third jackpot game, thereby updating the special game after the end of the jackpot game. Count the number of times the game is executed. The main CPU 41 erases the activation flag stored in the main RAM 43 when the special game in which the number of executions of the special game after the end of the jackpot game reaches the activation number is completed. That is, after the second jackpot game or the third jackpot game ends, the main CPU 41 controls the ball into a low ball entry rate state when the special game for the number of times of activation ends. After the first jackpot game ends, the main CPU 41 does not erase the operation flag until the next jackpot game is awarded. When starting a jackpot game and the activation flag is set, the main CPU 41 erases the activation flag. That is, the main CPU 41 controls the ball into a low ball entry rate state during the jackpot game.

Next, probability transfer processing will be explained.
In the probability transfer process, the main CPU 41 determines whether or not the game ball passed through a specific area in the previous jackpot game. As an example, the main CPU 41 determines whether or not a game ball passed through a specific area in the previous jackpot game based on whether a detection signal was input from the specific sensor SE5 in the previous jackpot game. If the game ball has passed through the specific area in the previous jackpot game, the main CPU 41 sets a high accuracy flag in the main RAM 43. That is, the main CPU 41 controls to a high probability state when the game ball has passed through a specific area in the previous jackpot game. If the game ball has passed through the specific area in the previous jackpot game, the main CPU 41 does not erase the high certainty flag until the next jackpot game is awarded. If the game ball has not passed through the specific area in the previous jackpot game, the main CPU 41 does not set the high accuracy flag in the main RAM 43. That is, when the game ball has not passed through the specific area in the previous jackpot game, the main CPU 41 controls to a low probability state.

As described above, in the first jackpot game and the second jackpot game, if the game ball is fired aiming at the second big prize opening 15, the game ball will pass through a specific area. On the other hand, in the third jackpot game, even if the game ball is fired aiming at the second big prize opening 15, the game ball does not pass through the specific area. Therefore, normally, after the first jackpot game or the second jackpot game ends, the game is controlled to a high probability state, while after the third jackpot game ends, it is controlled to a low probability state. Hereinafter, for convenience of explanation, it will be assumed that when the second big prize opening 15 is open, a game ball is fired aiming at the second big prize opening 15. That is, in the following explanation, in the first jackpot game and the second jackpot game, the specific area is treated as an area through which the game ball passes, and in the third jackpot game, the specific area is treated as an area through which the game ball does not pass. In addition, when starting a jackpot game and the high probability flag is set, the main CPU 41 erases the high probability flag. That is, the main CPU 41 controls the game to a low probability state during the jackpot game.

After the first jackpot game ends, the pachinko gaming machine 10 is controlled to a high probability state and a high ball entry rate state by the probability transition process and the ball entry rate transition process. That is, after the first jackpot game ends, the pachinko game machine 10 is controlled to a highly accurate time saving state. Further, after the second jackpot game ends, the pachinko gaming machine 10 is controlled to a high probability state and a high ball entry rate state. Thereafter, when the special game for the number of times of activation ends, the pachinko gaming machine 10 is controlled to a low ball entry rate state. That is, after the second jackpot game ends, the pachinko game machine 10 is controlled to a high-accuracy time-saving state, and then is controlled to a high-accuracy non-time-saving state with the end of the special game for the number of times of activation. Further, after the third jackpot game ends, the pachinko gaming machine 10 is controlled to a low probability state and a low ball entry rate state. Thereafter, when the special game for the number of times of activation ends, the pachinko gaming machine 10 is controlled to a low ball entry rate state. That is, after the end of the third jackpot game, the pachinko game machine 10 is controlled to a low-probability time-saving state, and then, triggered by the end of the special game for the number of activations, it is controlled to a low-probability non-time-saving state.

In this way, the main CPU 41 can control the game state to be advantageous for the player, using the termination of the jackpot game as an opportunity. That is, in the pachinko game machine 10, a variable game can be executed based on the result of a winning lottery, and after the variable game ends, a game state advantageous to the player is provided based on the result of the winning lottery. The first jackpot game is a jackpot game that is controlled to a more advantageous gaming state after the jackpot game ends than after the second jackpot game ends. The second jackpot game is a jackpot game that is controlled to a more advantageous gaming state after the jackpot game ends than after the third jackpot game ends. The main CPU 41 is an example of a gaming state control means that controls the gaming state.

As an example, when the gaming state shifts, the main CPU 41 stores a control command (hereinafter referred to as a state specifying command) that can specify the current gaming state in the output buffer. In other words, the state specification commands include a state specification command that can specify a low probability non-time saving state, a state specification command that can specify a low probability time saving state, a state specification command that can specify a high probability non time saving state, and a state specification command that can specify a high probability non time saving state. There is a state specification command that can specify the exact time saving state. As an example, when power supply is started, the main CPU 41 stores in the output buffer a state designation command that can specify the current gaming state, regardless of whether or not a part of the backup information has been initialized. In other words, when power supply is started, if a part of the backup information has been initialized, a state designation command that can identify a low-probability, non-time-saving state is stored in the output buffer. On the other hand, if some of the backup information is not initialized when power supply is started, a state designation command that can specify the gaming state when power supply is cut off is stored in the output buffer.

The normal symbol input process will be explained.
Normal symbol input processing is an example of timer interrupt processing. In the normal symbol input process, the main CPU 41 determines whether the game ball has entered the gate 17 based on whether a detection signal has been input from the gate sensor SE6. When the game ball enters the gate 17, the main CPU 41 determines whether or not the number of normal reservations stored in the main RAM 43 is less than the upper limit number. As an example, the upper limit of the number of reservations is normally 4. If the number of normal reservations is less than the upper limit number, the main CPU 41 updates the number of normal reservations by adding one.

Next, the main CPU 41 obtains a random number generated by the random number generation circuit 44, and stores random number information based on the obtained random number in the main RAM 43. For example, the random numbers include a winning random number used for a normal symbol winning lottery, a winning symbol random number used for determining a normal symbol, and the like. The main CPU 41 stores the random number information so that the storage order of the random number information can be specified.

Next, the normal symbol start process will be explained.
Normal symbol start processing is an example of timer interrupt processing. In the normal symbol start process, the main CPU 41 determines whether the start conditions for the normal game are satisfied. The main CPU 41 makes an affirmative determination when neither a normal winning game nor a normal game is being executed, and a negative determination when a normal winning game is being played or a normal game is being executed. If the normal game start condition is not satisfied, the main CPU 41 ends the normal symbol start process. If the start condition for the normal game is satisfied, the main CPU 41 determines whether the normal pending number is greater than zero. When the normal pending number is zero, the main CPU 41 ends the normal symbol start process.

If the normal pending number is greater than zero, the main CPU 41 performs processing to execute the normal game. Specifically, the main CPU 41 subtracts 1 from the normal pending number and updates it. The main CPU 41 acquires the first stored random number information from the main RAM 43 among the random number information for the normal game. The main CPU 41 uses a winning random number specified from the acquired random number information to perform a normal winning lottery to determine whether or not a winning result will be won. The main CPU 41 performs a normal winning lottery with a normal winning probability according to the current ball entry rate state. As an example, the normal hit probability in a high ball entry rate state is 1 or approximately 1. As an example, the normal hit probability in a low ball entry rate state is zero or approximately zero.

If a normal win is won, the main CPU 41 performs normal win variation processing. In the normal win variation processing, the main CPU 41 uses a normal win pattern random number that can be identified from the random number information to draw a normal win pattern and determine the normal win pattern to be stopped and displayed in the normal game. If a normal win is not won, the main CPU 41 performs normal loss variation processing. In the normal loss variation processing, the main CPU 41 determines the normal loss pattern to be stopped and displayed in the normal game.

The main CPU 41 determines a variation pattern from among a plurality of normal variation patterns according to the ball entry rate state. As an example, when the current ball entry rate state is a low ball entry rate state, the main CPU 41 generates a variation pattern that defines a longer fluctuation time than when the current ball entry rate state is a high ball entry rate state. Determine. Note that there may be a plurality of variation patterns that can be determined in each ball entry rate state. In this case, it is preferable that the main CPU 41 performs a lottery to determine a variation pattern for the normal game using predetermined random numbers, and determines a variation pattern from among a plurality of normal variation patterns. After determining the variation pattern, the main CPU 41 ends the normal symbol start process.

When the normal symbol start process is finished, the main CPU 41 executes the normal game by a process different from the normal symbol start process. When executing the normal game, the main CPU 41 controls the normal symbol display device 19e to start variable display of predetermined symbols. The main CPU 41 measures the variation time defined in the variation pattern. The main CPU 41 controls the normal symbol display device 19e to stop displaying the normal symbol determined in the normal symbol start process when the variation time defined in the variation pattern has elapsed.

The normal winning game processing will be explained.
The normal winning game process is a process for awarding a normal winning game. When the main CPU 41 stops displaying the normal winning symbols in the normal game, the main CPU 41 executes the normal winning game process after the normal winning normal game ends. The main CPU 41 controls the normal solenoid SL1 using the opening control data corresponding to the normal winning symbol determined in the normal symbol start process, and opens the second starting port 13.

The prize ball payout process will be explained.
The prize ball payout process is a process for paying out prize balls. The prize ball payout process is an example of a timer interrupt process. In the prize ball payout process, the main CPU 41 determines whether the game ball has entered the first starting port 12 based on whether a detection signal has been input from the first starting sensor SE1. When the game ball enters the first starting port 12, the main CPU 41 awards the first prize ball number (for example, three balls) to the first starting port 12. That is, the main CPU 41 determines to pay out the first number of prize balls from the payout port CZa. The main CPU 41 stores in the output buffer a control command (hereinafter referred to as a first prize ball command) that can specify that the first prize ball has been awarded. Thereafter, the main CPU 41 pays out the first number of prize balls from the payout port CZa. As an example, the main CPU 41 pays out a predetermined number of prize balls by repeating controlling a payout motor (not shown) for the number of prize balls to pay out one prize ball from the payout port CZa. Pay out from exit CZa. For example, when the main CPU 41 determines to pay out prize balls, it adds the number of prize balls determined to be paid out to the number of unpaid balls stored in the main RAM 43. As an example, the number of unpaid balls is information that can specify the number of prize balls that have not yet been paid out, although it has been decided to pay out prize balls. When the number of prize balls is added to the number of unpaid balls, the main CPU 41 performs payout control unless it is under control for paying out one prize ball (hereinafter referred to as payout control). When one payout control ends, the main CPU 41 updates the number of unpaid balls stored in the main RAM 43 by subtracting one. Thereafter, the main CPU 41 repeats the payout control until the number of unpaid balls becomes zero. As an example, the time required for one payout control (one operation time of the payout motor for paying out one prize ball from the payout port CZa) is 160 ms. That is, in the pachinko gaming machine 10, one prize ball is paid out every 160 ms. As an example, processing related to payout control is executed independently of timer interrupt processing. For this reason, the number of unpaid balls may increase in response to the decision to newly pay out prize balls while the process related to the payout control is being executed. In particular, during a jackpot game, the number of prize balls awarded (determined to be paid out) tends to be greater than the number of prize balls paid out per unit time. In other words, during a jackpot game, the number of unpaid balls tends to increase.

The main CPU 41 determines whether the game ball has entered the second starting port 13 based on whether a detection signal has been input from the second starting sensor SE2. When the game ball enters the second starting port 13, the main CPU 41 awards a predetermined second prize ball number (for example, one ball) to the second starting port 13. That is, the main CPU 41 updates the number of unpaid balls stored in the main RAM 43 by adding the second prize number of balls. The main CPU 41 stores in the output buffer a control command (hereinafter referred to as a second prize ball command) that can specify that a second prize ball has been awarded. The main CPU 41 determines whether or not the game ball has entered the first grand prize opening 14 based on whether or not a detection signal has been input from the first count sensor SE3. When the game ball enters the first grand prize opening 14, the main CPU 41 awards the third prize ball number (for example, 15 balls) to the first grand prize opening 14. That is, the main CPU 41 updates the number of unpaid balls stored in the main RAM 43 by adding the third prize number of balls. The main CPU 41 stores in the output buffer a control command (hereinafter referred to as the third prize ball command) that can specify that the third prize ball number has been awarded. The main CPU 41 determines whether or not the game ball has entered the second grand prize opening 15 based on whether or not a detection signal has been input from the second count sensor SE4. When the game ball enters the second grand prize opening 15, the main CPU 41 awards the fourth prize ball number (for example, 15 balls) to the second grand prize opening 15. That is, the main CPU 41 updates the number of unpaid balls stored in the main RAM 43 by adding the fourth prize number of balls. The main CPU 41 stores in the output buffer a control command (hereinafter referred to as the fourth prize ball command) that can specify that the fourth prize ball has been awarded.

The base counting process will be explained.
The base counting process is a process for counting (calculating) base values. The base counting process includes a first base counting process and a second base counting process. As an example, the main CPU 41 executes the first base counting process when a prize ball is awarded in the prize ball payout process when the game is not in a jackpot game and is in a low probability non-time saving state. The main CPU 41 adds the awarded number of prize balls to the total number of prize balls stored in the main RAM 43. The total number of prize balls is an example of backup information. The total number of prize balls is an example of base information. Here, regarding the prize ball, being awarded means that it has been decided to pay out the prize ball, and includes before it is actually paid out from the payout port CZa. The main CPU 41 divides the total number of prize balls after addition by the total number of used balls stored in the main RAM 43, and then multiplies the result by 100 to count (calculate) the base value. The total number of balls used is an example of backup information. The total number of balls used is an example of base information. The main CPU 41 updates the base value information stored in the main RAM 43 so that the base value after counting can be specified. The base value information may be the base value itself after counting, or may be information obtained by processing the base value after counting using a predetermined method. Base value information is an example of backup information. Base value information is an example of base information. The main CPU 41 controls the display content of the base display device 45 based on the updated base value information. Thereafter, the main CPU 41 ends the first base counting process.

As an example, when the main CPU 41 identifies that a game ball has been used, it executes the second base counting process. As an example, the main CPU 41 determines whether or not a game ball has been used, based on whether or not a detection signal has been input from the used ball sensor SE8. As described above, the used ball sensor SE8 detects the game ball that has reached the game area YBa. The game ball that has reached the game area YBa is an example of a game ball used in a game. As an example, the pachinko game machine 10 may detect a game ball discharged from the game area YBa as a game ball used in a game. For example, the pachinko gaming machine 10 has various winning holes (ball entry holes) such as a first starting hole 12, a second starting hole 13, a first big winning hole 14, a second big winning hole 15, and an out hole 18. It may be configured such that a game ball passing through a path where the balled game balls merge can be detected as a game ball used in a game.

In the second base value counting process, the main CPU 41 adds 1 to the total number of used balls stored in the main RAM 43. The main CPU 41 divides the total number of prize balls stored in the main RAM 43 by the total number of used balls after addition, and then multiplies the result by 100 to count (calculate) the base value. The main CPU 41 updates the base value information stored in the main RAM 43 so that the base value after counting can be specified. The main CPU 41 controls the display content of the base display device 45 based on the updated base value information. Thereafter, the main CPU 41 ends the second base counting process. The main CPU 41 is an example of a base value counting means that counts a base value when the gaming state is a low probability non-time saving state. The base display device 45 is an example of a base value display unit that displays a base value.

Main error processing will be explained.
In the main error processing, various error settings are set and various error settings are canceled. "Setting" a certain error means that the main CPU 41 causes the main RAM 43 to store information (such as a flag) that can identify the error. Moreover, "cancelling the setting" of a certain error means that the main CPU 41 erases information (such as a flag) that can identify the error from the main RAM 43. Main error processing is an example of timer interrupt processing.

As an example, in the main error process, when the main CPU 41 detects an error related to the payout of prize balls, it sets a payout error. As an example, an error related to paying out prize balls includes a ball jamming error. As an example, the main CPU 41 counts the number of paid-out prize balls and the number of paid-out balls detected by the put-out sensor SE7, and also counts the number of prize balls and the number of paid-out balls for a predetermined period of time. If the ball separates, a ball jam error is detected. In other words, a payout error is set when the number of prize balls and the number of paid balls deviate over a predetermined period of time. As an example, when setting a payout error, the main CPU 41 stores in an output buffer a control command (hereinafter referred to as a payout error setting command) that can specify that a payout error has been set. As an example, when the main CPU 41 detects that the ball jam error has been resolved, the main CPU 41 cancels the dispensing error setting. As an example, the main CPU 41 detects that the ball jam error has been resolved when the number of prize balls and the number of paid balls match for a predetermined period of time. That is, the setting of the payout error is canceled when the number of prize balls and the number of paid balls match for a predetermined period of time. As an example, when canceling the payout error setting, the main CPU 41 stores in the output buffer a control command (hereinafter referred to as a payout error cancellation command) that can specify that the payout error setting has been canceled. As an example, the main CPU 41 does not cancel the payout error setting even if the power supply is cut off and then the power supply is started. The main CPU 41 is an example of a detection means that detects a payout error.

As an example, in the main error process, when the main CPU 41 detects the entry of a game ball into the first grand prize opening 14 by the first count sensor SE3 when it is not within the predetermined winning permissible period, the main CPU 41 sets an unauthorized winning error. do. As an example, in the main error process, when the main CPU 41 detects the entry of a game ball into the second grand prize opening 15 by the second count sensor SE4 when it is not within the predetermined winning permissible period, the main CPU 41 sets an unauthorized winning error. do. In other words, an unauthorized winning error is set when a game ball enters the first grand prize opening 14 or the second grand prize opening 15 when it is not within the winning permissible period. As an example, the winning permissible period starts when the first round game in the jackpot game starts. As an example, the winning permissible period ends when a predetermined winning permissible time (for example, 5 seconds) has elapsed after the last round game in the jackpot game ends. As an example, when setting a fraudulent winnings error, the main CPU 41 stores in an output buffer a control command (hereinafter referred to as a fraudulent winnings error setting command) that can specify that a fraudulent winnings error has been set. As an example, the main CPU 41 cancels the setting of the fraudulent winning error when a predetermined error time (for example, 30 seconds) has elapsed after setting the fraudulent winning error. In other words, the setting of the fraudulent prize winning error is canceled when the error time has elapsed since the fraudulent prize winning error was set. As an example, when canceling the setting of the fraudulent winning error, the main CPU 41 stores in the output buffer a control command (hereinafter referred to as the fraudulent winning error canceling command) that can specify that the setting of the fraudulent winning prize error has been canceled.

Next, various processes executed by the sub CPU 51 will be explained.
The production game processing will be explained.
The effect game process is a process for executing the effect game as one of the display effects related to the special game while the special game is being executed. When the sub CPU 51 inputs the variation start command and the special symbol command, it controls the performance device group ES including the performance display device EH to execute the performance game.

The sub CPU 51 determines a symbol combination to be stopped and displayed in the production game based on the special symbol command. The sub CPU 51 determines the jackpot symbol combination when the jackpot symbol can be specified from the special symbol command. As an example, the jackpot symbol combination is a symbol combination in which a plurality of first production symbols EZ1 are the same first production symbol EZ1, and the second production symbol EZ2 is the second production symbol EZ2 according to the first mode. be. As an example, the second effect pattern EZ2 according to the first aspect is a pattern imitating a white □ (square). The sub CPU 51 determines the deviant symbol combination when it is possible to specify the deviant symbol from the special symbol command. When determining a winning symbol combination, the sub CPU 51 determines a winning symbol combination including a winning symbol combination when a condition for executing a ready-to-win effect (hereinafter referred to as a ready-to-win condition) is satisfied. As an example, an incorrect symbol combination including reach is such that among the plurality of first production symbols EZ1, the first production symbols EZ1 in the left and right rows are the same first production symbol EZ1, while the first production symbol EZ1 in the middle row is the same first production symbol EZ1. This is a symbol combination in which the first performance symbols EZ1 are different from each other, and the second performance symbol EZ2 is a second performance symbol EZ2 according to the second mode. As an example, the second effect pattern EZ2 according to the first aspect is a pattern imitating a blue square. When determining a winning symbol combination, the sub CPU 51 determines a winning symbol combination that does not include a ready-to-win condition if the ready-to-win condition is not satisfied. As an example, an incorrect symbol combination that does not include reach is a first production symbol EZ1 in which the plurality of first production symbols EZ1 are different from each other, and a second production symbol EZ2 is a second production symbol EZ2 according to the second mode. This is a certain pattern combination. As an example, the sub CPU 51 determines whether the reach condition is satisfied based on a fluctuation pattern that can be specified from the input fluctuation start command.

The sub CPU 51 determines the specific variation content (performance content) of the production game based on the variation pattern. The sub CPU 51 controls the effect display device EH to start variable display of effect symbols in each symbol row based on the determined variation content. In other words, the sub CPU 51 starts the performance game.

When a predetermined timing arrives after the start of the performance game, the sub CPU 51 temporarily stops displaying the symbol combination. The sub CPU 51, triggered by the input of the variation end command, stops and displays the symbol combination in a fixed state. The sub-CPU 51 may stop displaying the symbol combination in a fixed state, using the elapse of the variation time defined in the variation pattern as an opportunity. In this case, the variation end command may be omitted. The sub CPU 51 is an example of a variable game execution means that executes a variable game.

Next, the display contents of the effect display device EH when various errors are set will be explained.
First, an example of the display content of the effect display device EH when a payout error is set will be explained.

As shown in FIG. 4(a), when a payout error is set, payout error information is displayed on the effect display device EH. The payout error information is information that can specify that a payout error has been set. As an example, when a payout error is set, the effect display device EH can display a payout error image Hg. The payout error image Hg is an example of payout error information. As an example, the payout error image Hg is an image imitating the character string "Payout error". As an example, the payout error image Hg is displayed at the upper left in the display area R of the effect display device EH. In addition, in the following description, the display area R of the effect display device EH may be omitted and simply referred to as the display area R.

Next, an example of the display content of the effect display device EH when an unauthorized winning error is set will be explained.
As shown in FIG. 4(b), when the illegal winning error is set, the illegal winning error information is displayed on the effect display device EH. The fraudulent prize winning error information is information that can specify that a fraudulent prize winning error has been set. As an example, when an unauthorized winning error is set, an unauthorized winning error image Fg is displayed on the effect display device EH. The fraudulent winning error image Fg is an example of fraudulent winning error information. As an example, the unauthorized prize winning error image Fg is an image imitating a character string of "unauthorized winning error". As an example, the fraudulent winning error image Fg is displayed in the upper left part of the display area R. As an example, the fraudulent winning error image Fg is displayed in the display area R below the display position of the payout error image Hg.

Next, an example of the display contents of the effect display device EH when the progress part of the gaming machine is the standby part will be explained.
As shown in FIG. 5(a), as an example, when the progress part of the gaming machine is the standby part, the display content of the effect display device EH may include the display of the first effect pattern EZ1. As an example, when the progress part of the gaming machine is the standby part, the first performance symbol EZ1 can be stopped and displayed on the performance display device EH. As an example, when the progress part of the gaming machine is the standby part, the first effect pattern EZ1 is displayed in a stopped state in a shaking state on the effect display device EH. As an example, when the progress part of the gaming machine is the standby part, the first performance symbol EZ1 is stopped and displayed at the center or approximately the center in the display area R. As an example, when the progress part of the gaming machine is the standby part, the display contents of the effect display device EH may include the display of the second effect pattern EZ2. As an example, when the progress part of the gaming machine is the standby part, the second performance symbol EZ2 can be stopped and displayed on the performance display device EH. As an example, when the progress part of the gaming machine is the standby part, the second effect pattern EZ2 is stopped and displayed in a determined state on the effect display device EH. As an example, when the progress part of the gaming machine is the standby part, the second performance symbol EZ2 is stopped and displayed at the lower right in the display area R.

As an example, when the progress part of the gaming machine is the standby part, the display content of the effect display device EH may include specific value information regarding the volume of the pachinko gaming machine 10 and the amount of light of the pachinko gaming machine 10. As an example, the specific value information may include first specific value information regarding the volume of the pachinko gaming machine 10 and second specific value information regarding the light amount of the pachinko gaming machine 10. As an example, when the progress part of the gaming machine is the standby part, the effect display device EH can display a first specific value image Tg1 that can specify the volume of the pachinko gaming machine 10. The first specific value image Tg1 is an example of first specific value information. As an example, the first specific value image Tg1 is a meter image that can specify the volume level of the pachinko gaming machine 10. As an example, when the progress part of the gaming machine is the standby part, the first specific value image Tg1 is displayed on the left side in the display area R.

Next, an example of the display content of the effect display device EH when power supply is started and the backup information has not been initialized will be described.
As shown in FIG. 12, as an example, when power supply is started and backup information has not been initialized, the display content of the effect display device EH indicates that power supply has started. may include supply start information that can identify the As an example, when power supply is started and the backup information has not been initialized, the effect display device EH can display a supply start image Gp1 that can identify that power supply has started. It is. The supply start image Gp1 is an example of supply start information. As an example, the supply start image Gp1 may include an image imitating the character string "Power has been turned on." As an example, when power supply is started and backup information has not been initialized, the supply start image Gp1 is displayed over the entire display area R or substantially the entire area. As an example, when power supply is started and backup information has not been initialized, the display content of the effect display device EH may include a message indicating that power supply has started and backup information has not been initialized. It may include return information that can specify that the data did not exist. As an example, when power supply is started and backup information has not been initialized, the effect display device EH may indicate that power supply has been started and backup information has not been initialized. An identifiable return image Gp2 can be displayed. The return image Gp2 is an example of return information. The return image Gp2 is an image imitating a character string "returning". As an example, when power supply is started and the backup information has not been initialized, the return image Gp2 is displayed above in the display area R. The display of the supply start image Gp1 is an example of input notification. The display of the return image Gp2 is an example of input notification.

Next, an example of the content displayed on the effect display device EH when a function (hereinafter referred to as a complete function) for restricting the execution of a game is activated when the specific number of balls reaches the upper limit number will be described. As an example, the specific number of balls is information based on the number of prize balls won by the player and the number of used balls used by the player in the game. As an example, the specific number of balls is counted based on the number of prize balls awarded after the start of power supply and the number of used balls used in the game after the start of power supply. As an example, the upper limit number is 95,000.

As shown in FIG. 13, as an example, when the complete function is activated, the display content of the effect display device EH may include special information. As an example, the special information may include information that can specify that the complete function has been activated. As an example, the special information may include model-specific unique information. The model-specific unique information may include a manufacturer's (manufacturer's) logo mark, a manufacturer's (manufacturer's) unique character (such as an official mascot character), and a model-specific character. As an example, when the complete function is activated (when the specific number of pitches reaches the upper limit number), the special image Gcp can be displayed on the effect display device EH. Special image Gcp is an example of special information. As an example, the special image Gcp includes a character string that says "The complete function has been activated," a character string that says "The maximum payout limit for a day has been reached," and a character string that says "Games are over for today." , may include an image imitating . As an example, the special image Gcp may include an image imitating a unique character unique to the model. As an example, the special image Gcp may include an image imitating the character string "Congratulations!". As an example, the special image Gcp is a moving image. As an example, the special image Gcp is an image that satisfies the player's sense of accomplishment. As an example, the special image Gcp is an image exclusively used when the complete function is activated. As an example, when the complete function is activated, the special image Gcp is displayed in the entire area or substantially the entire area of the display area R.

Next, an example of the display content of the effect display device EH when the specific number of pitches reaches a specific number smaller than the upper limit number will be described. As an example, the specific number is 90,000.
As shown in FIG. 14, as an example, when the specific number of pitches reaches a specific number smaller than the upper limit number, the display content of the effect display device EH may include specific information. As an example, the specific information is information that suggests in advance that the complete function may operate. As an example, the specific information is information that suggests the difference between the specific number of pitches and the upper limit number. As an example, the specific information is information that suggests that the number of specific pitches has reached a specific number. As an example, the effect display device EH can display the specific image Sg when the specific number of pitches reaches a specific number smaller than the upper limit number. The specific image Sg is an example of specific information. As an example, the specific image Sg may include a message image Mg. As an example, the message image Mg includes a character string that reads ``The maximum amount of payouts per day is approaching.'' and a character string that reads ``Please note that the game will end today if the meter reaches 0.'' This is an image that imitates. As an example, the specific image Sg is configured to include a plurality of unit images. As an example, the specific image Sg is configured to include five unit images: a first unit image Mgt1, a second unit image Mgt2, a third unit image Mgt3, a fourth unit image Mgt4, and a fifth unit image Mgt5. The first unit image Mgt1, the second unit image Mgt2, the third unit image Mgt3, the fourth unit image Mgt4, and the fifth unit image Mgt5 are examples of a plurality of unit information. The first unit image Mgt1 is an example of specific unit information. As an example, each of the first unit image Mgt1, second unit image Mgt2, third unit image Mgt3, fourth unit image Mgt4, and fifth unit image Mgt5 is a square-shaped image. As an example, each of the first unit image Mgt1, second unit image Mgt2, third unit image Mgt3, fourth unit image Mgt4, and fifth unit image Mgt5 has a normal display mode and a specific display mode. As an example, the normal display mode of the first unit image Mgt1, second unit image Mgt2, third unit image Mgt3, fourth unit image Mgt4, and fifth unit image Mgt5 is such that a predetermined area within the frame of each unit image is displayed. This is a full state that expresses the state in which the frame is filled by adding a color tone. As an example, the specific display mode of the first unit image Mgt1, second unit image Mgt2, third unit image Mgt3, fourth unit image Mgt4, and fifth unit image Mgt5 is that This is an empty state where the frame is expressed as empty by adding color. As an example, the specific image Sg has a specific pitch number and an upper limit number depending on the display mode of the first unit image Mgt1, second unit image Mgt2, third unit image Mgt3, fourth unit image Mgt4, and fifth unit image Mgt5. This is an image that suggests the difference. As an example, the specific image Sg includes an image imitating a scale near each of the first unit image Mgt1, second unit image Mgt2, third unit image Mgt3, fourth unit image Mgt4, and fifth unit image Mgt5. It consists of: As an example, when the specific number of pitches reaches a specific number smaller than the upper limit number, the specific image Sg is displayed in the upper left part of the display area R. In other words, the specific image Sg and the special image Gcp have different display positions. Further, the specific image Sg is not an image that is displayed in the entire area or substantially the entire area of the display area R. That is, the specific image Sg has a smaller display area on the effect display device EH than the special image Gcp. As an example, the first unit image Mgt1, the second unit image Mgt2, the third unit image Mgt3, the fourth unit image Mgt4, and the fifth unit image Mgt5 are the first unit image Mgt1, the second unit image Mgt2, and the fifth unit image Mgt5 in the specific image Sg from the left. A second unit image Mgt2, a third unit image Mgt3, a fourth unit image Mgt4, and a fifth unit image Mgt5 are arranged horizontally in this order.

Next, an example of the display contents of the effect display device EH when the operation of the complete function is on standby will be explained. As an example, when the specific number of balls reaches the upper limit number during execution of a jackpot game, the complete function waits until the jackpot game ends.

As shown in FIG. 15, as an example, when the complete function is on standby, the display content of the effect display device EH may include operation standby information that can specify that the complete function is on standby. . As an example, when the completion function is on standby, the display mode of the message image Mg forming the specific image Sg may change in the effect display device EH. In the following explanation, the display mode of the message image Mg until the complete function is on standby (before the display mode changes) is referred to as the normal display mode, and after the complete function is on standby (the display mode is changed). The display mode of the message image Mg after the change) may be referred to as a specific display mode.

The specific image Sg including the message image Mg in a specific display mode is an example of operation standby information. As an example, a message image Mg with a specific display mode may include a character string such as ``The maximum amount of payouts per day has been reached'' instead of a string of ``The maximum amount of payouts per day is approaching.'' May contain simulated images. As an example, a message image Mg with a specific display mode may include the text "The complete function will be activated after the winnings are completed" instead of the text "Please note that the game will end for today if the meter reaches 0." May contain images that simulate columns. For example, when the complete function is on standby, each of the first unit image Mgt1, second unit image Mgt2, third unit image Mgt3, fourth unit image Mgt4, and fifth unit image Mgt5 is displayed as a specific display. displayed in the following manner. As an example, when the completion function is on standby, the display position of the specific image Sg does not change in the display area R.

Next, a specific pitch number counting process for counting the specific number of pitches will be explained.
As an example, the specific pitch counting process includes a first specific pitch counting process and a second specific pitch counting process. As an example, when the main CPU 41 specifies that game balls have been used, it executes a first specific ball count process. As an example, when a prize ball is awarded in the prize ball payout process, the main CPU 41 executes the second specific ball count process.

As shown in FIG. 16, in the first specific pitch counting process, the main CPU 41 determines whether the complete function is in operation (step S101). As an example, the main CPU 41 determines whether the complete function is in operation based on the complete function activation flag stored in the main RAM 43. As an example, the complete function activation flag is information that can specify whether or not the complete function is in operation. If the complete function is in operation (step S101: YES), the main CPU 41 ends the first specific pitch count process.

If the complete function is not in operation (step S101: NO), the main CPU 41 determines whether the complete function is on standby (step S102). As an example, the main CPU 41 determines whether or not the complete function is on standby based on the complete function standby flag stored in the main RAM 43. As an example, the complete function standby flag is information that can specify whether or not the complete function is on standby. As an example, being on standby for the complete function is a state in which the specific number of pitches has reached the upper limit, but the complete function is on standby because the conditions for standby for the complete function have been met. . As an example, the activation standby condition for the complete function is satisfied during a jackpot game. In other words, even if the specific number of balls has reached the upper limit number, the operation of the complete function is on standby when a jackpot game is in progress. If the complete function is on standby (step S102: YES), the main CPU 41 ends the first specific pitch count process.

If the complete function is not on standby (step S102: NO), the main CPU 41 determines whether the specific number of pitches stored in the main RAM 43 is 0 (step S103). If the specific pitch count is 0 (step S103: YES), the main CPU 41 ends the first specific pitch count counting process. If the specific number of pitches is not 0 (step S103: NO), the main CPU 41 updates the specific number of pitches stored in the main RAM 43 by subtracting 1 (step S104). The main CPU 41 stores a control command (hereinafter referred to as a specific number of pitches command) corresponding to the updated number of specific pitches in the output buffer (step S105). As an example, the main CPU 41 generates a specific number of pitches command so that the updated number of specific pitches can be specified, and stores the generated specific number of pitches command in an output buffer. After completing the process of step S105, the main CPU 41 ends the first specific pitch count process.

As shown in FIG. 17, in the second specific pitch counting process, the main CPU 41 determines whether the complete function is in operation (step S201). If the complete function is in operation (step S201: YES), the main CPU 41 ends the second specific pitch count process. If the complete function is not in operation (step S201: NO), the main CPU 41 determines whether the complete function is on standby (step S202). If the complete function is on standby (step S202: YES), the main CPU 41 ends the second specific pitch count process.

If the complete function is not on standby (step S202: NO), the main CPU 41 updates the specific number of balls stored in the main RAM 43 by adding the newly awarded number of prize balls (step S203). Next, the main CPU 41 determines whether the specific number of pitches updated in step S203 has reached the upper limit number (step S204). If the specific pitch number has not reached the upper limit number (step S204: NO), the main CPU 41 stores a specific pitch number command corresponding to the updated specific pitch number in the output buffer (step S205). After completing the process of step S205, the main CPU 41 ends the second specific pitch count process.

When the specific number of balls has reached the upper limit number (step S204: YES), the main CPU 41 determines whether or not a jackpot game is being executed (step S206). If the jackpot game is being executed (step S206: YES), the main CPU 41 waits for the operation of the complete function (step S207). As an example, the main CPU 41 updates the complete function standby flag stored in the main RAM 43 so that it can be specified that the complete function is on standby. As an example, the main CPU 41 stores in the output buffer a control command (hereinafter referred to as an operation standby command) that can specify that the complete function is on standby. Thereafter, the main CPU 41 ends the second specific pitch count process.

If the jackpot game is not being executed (step S206: NO), the main CPU 41 activates the complete function (step S208). As an example, the main CPU 41 updates the complete function activation flag stored in the main RAM 43 so that it can be specified that the complete function is in operation. As an example, the main CPU 41 stores a control command (hereinafter referred to as an operation command) that can specify that the complete function is in operation in an output buffer. Thereafter, the main CPU 41 ends the second specific pitch count process. As an example, while waiting for the complete function to be activated, the main CPU 41 activates the complete function when ending the jackpot game. That is, the main CPU 41 updates the complete function activation flag stored in the main RAM 43 so that it can be specified that the complete function is in operation, and stores the activation command in the output buffer.

As an example, while the complete function is in operation, the main CPU 41 limits the execution of games in the gaming machine (hereinafter referred to as stopping games). That is, when the specific number of balls reaches the upper limit number, execution of the game in the pachinko gaming machine 10 is restricted. As an example, while the complete function is in operation, the main CPU 41 does not execute special symbol input processing, special symbol start processing, jackpot game processing, normal symbol input processing, normal symbol start processing, normal winning game processing, and prize ball payout processing. . That is, while the game is stopped, even if game balls enter the first starting port 12 and the second starting port 13 in the pachinko gaming machine 10, the special game hold condition is not satisfied. Also, while the game is stopped, in the pachinko game machine 10, even if a game ball enters the first starting port 12, second starting port 13, first grand prize opening 14, or second grand prize opening 15, the prize ball will not be played. Not paid out. Furthermore, while the game is stopped, in the pachinko game machine 10, even if a game ball enters the gate 17a, the hold condition for the normal game is not satisfied. Further, while the game is stopped, no new special game is executed in the pachinko gaming machine 10. Further, while the game is stopped, no new normal game is executed in the pachinko gaming machine 10. Further, while the game is stopped, no new jackpot game is executed in the pachinko game machine 10. Further, while the game is stopped, a new normal winning game is not executed in the pachinko game machine 10. On the other hand, as an example, while the complete function is in operation, the main CPU 41 executes part of the main error processing. For example, in the main error process, the main CPU 41 can execute a process related to a payout error, but does not execute a process related to a fraudulent prize winning error. Thereby, the main CPU 41 can detect a payout error even when the execution of games in the gaming machine is restricted. That is, while the game is stopped, a payout error may be set in the pachinko gaming machine 10, but an unauthorized winning error is never set. Further, while the game is stopped, in the pachinko gaming machine 10, the payout error setting may be canceled, but the fraudulent winning error setting is not canceled. Further, as an example, while the complete function is in operation, the main CPU 41 executes base counting processing. That is, while the game is stopped, the pachinko gaming machine 10 allows the base value to be displayed on the base display device 45.

As an example, the specific number of pitches is information that is initialized regardless of whether or not the RAM clear switch 46 is operated when power supply is started (hereinafter referred to as non-backup information), while the complete function The activation flag and complete function standby flag are backup information. Therefore, the power supply is cut off until the specific number of pitches reaches the upper limit number, and then when the power supply is started, the specific number of pitches is initialized even if the RAM clear switch 46 is not operated. . In other words, the main CPU 41 counts the specific number of balls based on the number of prize balls awarded after the start of power supply and the number of used balls used in the game after the start of power supply. Therefore, the power supply is cut off until the specific number of pitches reaches the upper limit number, and then when the power supply is started, the conditions related to the activation of the complete function are met even if the RAM clear switch 46 is not operated. Initialized. On the other hand, after the specific number of pitches reaches the upper limit, the power supply is cut off, and when the power supply is started, if the RAM clear switch 46 is not operated, the conditions related to the activation of the complete function are initialized. not be converted into In other words, after the specific number of pitches reaches the upper limit, the power supply is cut off, and when the power supply is started, if the RAM clear switch 46 is not operated, the complete function is activated again, or the complete function is turned off. The function is ready for operation. At this time, as an example, the main CPU 41 stores an activation command or an activation standby command in the output buffer depending on whether the complete function is activated or the complete function is activated. The operating state of the complete function and the standby state of the complete function are canceled if the RAM clear switch 46 is operated when the power supply is cut off and then the power supply is started. The main CPU 41 that counts the specific number of pitches corresponds to a counting means.

Next, the display priorities of the various images described above will be explained. As an example, the display priority of various images is determined by the layer in which the various images are arranged. As an example, the display mode of the various images described above may be changed arbitrarily. Therefore, the display position of one image and another image may be partially or completely the same (part or all of the display may overlap), or may be different (the display position may overlap). (Doesn't have to cover everything). Therefore, in this embodiment, the layer priority is determined as the display priority of various images.

As shown in FIG. 18, as an example, the layers include a first layer, a second layer, a third layer, a fourth layer, a fifth layer, a sixth layer, a seventh layer, an eighth layer, a ninth layer, There are a 10th layer, an 11th layer, a 12th layer, a 13th layer, a 14th layer, a 15th layer, a 16th layer, a 17th layer, an 18th layer, and a 19th layer.

As an example, the display priority of each layer is, in descending order, the first layer, the second layer, the third layer, the fourth layer, the fifth layer, the sixth layer, the seventh layer, the eighth layer, the ninth layer, The layers are determined to be a 10th layer, an 11th layer, a 12th layer, a 13th layer, a 14th layer, a 15th layer, a 16th layer, a 17th layer, an 18th layer, and a 19th layer.

As an example, a payout error image Hg may be placed in the first layer. As an example, a special image Gcp may be placed in the second layer. As an example, the reserved number image Gn and the second effect pattern EZ2 may be arranged in the third layer. As an example, the second right-handed image Gm2 may be placed in the fourth layer. As an example, a fraudulent prize winning error image Fg may be placed in the fifth layer. As an example, a customized image Cg and a round number image Gr2 may be arranged in the sixth layer. As an example, the first specific value image Tg1 and the second specific value image Tg2 may be arranged in the seventh layer. As an example, a pending game image Gh and a variable game image Gg may be arranged in the eighth layer. As an example, a variation number image Gt and a remaining number image Gz may be arranged in the ninth layer. As an example, the left-handed image Gl and the first right-handed image Gm1 may be arranged in the tenth layer. As an example, the first effect pattern EZ1 may be placed on the 11th layer. As an example, a ready-to-reach effect image Gb and a cut-in image Gc may be arranged in the 12th layer. As an example, the specific image Sg may be placed in the 13th layer. As an example, a demonstration image Dg, an attention-calling image Ng1, and an SR effect image Gs may be arranged in the 14th layer. As an example, the type image Gr3 may be placed in the 15th layer. As an example, the released ball image Gd may be arranged in the 16th layer. As an example, the passing image Gr5 may be placed in the 17th layer. As an example, the specific round image Gr4, the number of consecutive shots image Rg, the attention-calling image Ng2, and the return image Gp2 may be arranged in the 18th layer. As an example, an opening image Go, a round image Gr1, an ending image Ge, and a supply start image Gp1 may be arranged in the 19th layer.

In other words, the payout error image Hg has a higher display priority than the special image Gcp. Moreover, the special image Gcp has a higher display priority than the pending number image Gn and the second effect pattern EZ2. Moreover, the pending number image Gn and the second effect pattern EZ2 have a higher display priority than the second right-handed image Gm2. Further, the second right-handed game image Gm2 has a higher display priority than the fraudulent prize winning error image Fg. Further, the fraudulent winning error image Fg has a higher display priority than the customized image Cg and the round number image Gr2. Further, the customized image Cg and the round number image Gr2 have a higher display priority than the first specific value image Tg1 and the second specific value image Tg2. Further, the first specific value image Tg1 and the second specific value image Tg2 have a higher display priority than the pending game image Gh and the variable game image Gg. Further, the pending game image Gh and the variable game image Gg have a higher display priority than the variable number of times image Gt and the remaining number of times image Gz. Further, the variable number of times image Gt and the remaining number of times image Gz have a higher display priority than the left-handed hit image Gl and the first right-handed hit image Gm1. Moreover, the left-handed image Gl and the first right-handed image Gm1 have a higher display priority than the first effect pattern EZ1. Moreover, the first effect pattern EZ1 has a higher display priority than the pre-reach effect image Gb, the SR effect image Gs, and the cut-in image Gc. Furthermore, the pre-reach performance image Gb, the SR performance image Gs, and the cut-in image Gc have a higher display priority than the specific image Sg. Further, the specific image Sg has a higher display priority than the demonstration image Dg and the attention-calling image Ng1. Furthermore, the demonstration image Dg and the attention-calling image Ng1 have a higher display priority than the type image Gr3. Moreover, the type image Gr3 has a higher display priority than the released ball image Gd. Further, the put-out ball image Gd has a higher display priority than the passing image Gr5. Furthermore, the passing image Gr5 has a higher display priority than the specific round image Gr4, the number of consecutive shots image Rg, the attention-calling image Ng2, and the return image Gp2. Further, the specific round image Gr4, the number of consecutive games image Rg, the attention-calling image Ng2, and the return image Gp2 have a higher display priority than the opening image Go, the round image Gr1, the ending image Ge, and the supply start image Gp1.

Next, control for displaying the various images described above will be explained.
As an example, when power supply is started, the sub CPU 51 controls the effect display device EH to display the supply start image Gp1 for a certain period of time. As an example, when the sub CPU 51 inputs the return command, it controls the effect display device EH to display the return image Gp2 for a certain period of time. In addition, as an example, when the sub CPU 51 inputs the initialization command, the sub CPU 51 may control the effect display device EH to display display content that can identify that a part of the backup information has been initialized.

As an example, when the sub CPU 51 inputs a payout error setting command, it controls the effect display device EH to display a payout error image Hg. As an example, when the sub CPU 51 inputs the payout error cancellation command, the sub CPU 51 controls the effect display device EH to end the display of the payout error image Hg. As an example, when the sub CPU 51 inputs a fraudulent winning error setting command, it controls the effect display device EH to display a fraudulent winning error image Fg. As an example, when the sub CPU 51 inputs the fraudulent winning error cancellation command, it controls the effect display device EH to end the display of the fraudulent winning error image Fg.

For example, when a standby command is input, the sub CPU 51 updates the progress part information stored in the sub RAM 53 so that it can be specified that the progress part of the gaming machine is the standby part. As an example, when the sub CPU 51 inputs a standby command, it controls the effect display device EH to stop displaying the first effect pattern EZ1. As an example, when the sub CPU 51 inputs a standby command, it controls the effect display device EH to stop displaying the second effect pattern EZ2.

After that, at time T11, a jackpot game is started, and the progress part of the gaming machine has progressed to the jackpot part. At this time, it is assumed that the specific number of pitches is greater than or equal to the fourth specified number and less than the upper limit number. Therefore, in the effect display device EH, the specific image Sg is continuously displayed in the same display mode as the display mode of the specific image Sg at time T10.

Assume that the number of specific pitches reaches the upper limit number at time T12. At this time, since the progress part of the gaming machine is the jackpot part, the operation of the complete function is on standby. Therefore, in the effect display device EH, the message image Mg constituting the specific image Sg changes from the normal display mode to the specific display mode. Thereafter, when the progress part of the gaming machine is the jackpot part, the power supply is cut off, and at time T13, the power supply is started. At this time, the supply start image Gp1 and the return image Gp2 are displayed on the effect display device EH. On the other hand, the specific image Sg is not displayed on the effect display device EH. Specifically, the main CPU 41 outputs an operation standby command to the sub board 50 when power supply is started. Since the specific image Sg is not being displayed when the operation standby command is input, the sub CPU 51 does not update the display mode of the specific image Sg. Moreover, since the specific image Sg is not being displayed when the operation standby command is input, the sub CPU 51 does not display the specific image Sg anew. Moreover, at this point, since the operation of the complete function is on standby, the special image Gcp is not displayed on the effect display device EH. Assume that at time T14, the display of the supply start image Gp1 and the return image Gp2 is finished, and the round effect is started (restarted). At this time, since the completion function is on standby, the specific number commands are not output to the sub-board 50, so the specific image Sg is not displayed on the effect display device EH. Further, since the operation of the complete function is on standby, the special image Gcp is not displayed on the effect display device EH. Thereafter, at time T15, when the jackpot game ends, a complete function is activated and a special image Gcp is displayed on the effect display device EH. As described above, the only information (image) that has a higher display priority than the special image Gcp is the payout error image Hg. Therefore, the special image Gcp has the same display priority (relatively the same) regardless of the progress part of the gaming machine when the special image Gcp is displayed. After that, when the complete function is operating, after the power supply is cut off, it is assumed that the power supply is started at time T16. At this time, the special image Gcp is displayed on the effect display device EH. As described above, the special image Gcp is displayed over the entire display area R or substantially over the entire display area R. Therefore, the supply start image Gp1 and the return image Gp2 are all prevented from being displayed (not displayed). That is, when the power supply is cut off while the special image Gcp is being displayed, and then the power supply is started, the supply start image Gp1 and the return image Gp2 are not executed.

Next, a specific example of how the base value changes when the complete function is activated will be described.
FIG. 30(a) shows a situation where the game ball K is passing through the firing path YBc when the complete function is activated. At this time, since the game ball K is passing through the firing path YBc, it is not counted as a used ball. After that, when the game ball K is fired so as to reach the game area YBa, the game ball K is detected as a used ball by reaching the game area YBa. That is, the base value may decrease even after the complete function is activated.

FIG. 30(b) shows a situation where the game ball K, which was passing through the firing path YBc when the complete function was activated, enters the first starting port 12. At this time, since the complete function is activated, even if the game ball K enters the first starting port 12, the conditions for paying out the prize ball are not satisfied. Further, since the complete function is activated, even if the game ball K enters the first starting port 12, the holding condition of the variable game is not satisfied. That is, even if the game ball K enters the first starting port 12 after the complete function is activated, the base value does not increase.

In FIG. 30(c), when the complete function is activated, the game ball K that was flowing down the gaming area YBa enters the first big prize opening 14 before the first big prize opening 14 closes. It shows a situation where At this time, although the game ball K entered the first major prize opening 14 before the first major prize opening 14 was closed, the game ball K entered the first major prize opening 14 because the complete function was activated. Even if the ball enters No. 14, the conditions for paying out the prize ball will not be met. In other words, even if the game ball K enters the first big winning hole 14 after the complete function is activated, the base value does not increase.

In this way, even when the execution of the game is restricted, the base value can fluctuate by executing the base value counting process. Further, the base value that has changed is allowed to be displayed even when the execution of the game is restricted by executing the base value counting process. As described above, in the base value counting process, the base value is counted based on the total number of prize balls and the total number of used balls when the gaming state is the low probability non-time saving state. For this reason, if the gaming state when the execution of the game is restricted is not a low-probability non-time-saving state, the base value does not fluctuate after the execution of the game is restricted.

The effects of this embodiment will be explained.
(1-1) When the specific number of pitches reaches a specific number, a specific image Sg is displayed on the effect display device EH, so that the execution of the game is more likely to be restricted than before the specific number of pitches reaches a specific number. The player can recognize that this is the case. Such a specific image Sg is displayed at the same position regardless of the progress part of the gaming machine. Therefore, the player can easily recognize the specific image Sg. In other words, when the specific number of balls reaches a specific number, the player can easily recognize that the game execution is likely to be restricted. On the other hand, by varying the display priority (relative display priority) of the specific image Sg depending on the progress part of the gaming machine, the specific image Sg can be suitably displayed according to the progress part of the gaming machine. .

(1-2) When the progress part of the gaming machine is the standby part, the first specific value image Tg1 has a higher display priority than the specific image Sg. Generally, in the standby part, game balls are often not shot. Therefore, in the standby part, a situation is assumed in which the specific number of pitches is difficult to change.

(1-3) When the gaming state is a low probability non-time saving state and the progress part of the gaming machine is a variable part, the second performance symbol EZ2 has a higher display priority than the specific image Sg. Generally, in the variable part, game balls are often shot. When the gaming state is a low-accuracy non-time-saving state and game balls are being fired, the specific number of balls is smaller than when the gaming state is a low-accuracy time-saving state and a high-accuracy time-saving state. Easy to decrease. In other words, when the gaming state is a low probability non-time saving state and the progress part of the gaming machine is a variable part, it is assumed that the number of specific balls will decrease. When the number of specific pitches is decreasing, it is assumed that the player's interest in whether or not the execution of the game will be restricted will decrease. In such a situation, by displaying the second effect pattern EZ2 preferentially compared to the specific image Sg, the game state is a low probability non-time saving state and the progress part of the gaming machine is a variable part. At certain times, the specific image Sg and the second effect pattern EZ2 can be suitably displayed.

(1-4) The round number image Gr2 is information that can specify the current number of round games. In other words, when the total number of round games constituting the jackpot game is known, the round number image Gr2 can be said to be information that can specify the remaining number of round games in the jackpot game being executed. From this, it can be said that the round number image Gr2 is information that allows estimation of the number of prize balls to be awarded after the jackpot part. The information that allows you to estimate the number of prize balls that will be awarded later in the jackpot part is information that allows you to estimate whether the specific number of balls will reach the upper limit number. Therefore, in the jackpot part, by displaying the round number information preferentially compared to the specific image Sg, it is easy to estimate whether the specific number of balls will reach the upper limit number.

(1-5) When the gaming state is a low-accuracy time-saving state and the progress part of the gaming machine is a variable part, the second effect pattern EZ2 has a higher display priority than the specific image Sg. In general, when the gaming state is a low-accuracy time-saving state, when the game ball is being fired, the specific The number of pitches is difficult to change. If the specific number of pitches does not change, it is assumed that the player's interest in whether or not execution of the game is restricted is likely to diminish. In such a situation, by displaying the second effect pattern EZ2 preferentially compared to the specific image Sg, the gaming state is a low-accuracy time-saving state, and the progress part of the gaming machine is a variable part. At times, the specific image Sg and the second effect pattern EZ2 can be suitably displayed.

(1-7) When the progress part of the gaming machine is the standby part, the customized image Cg has a higher display priority than the specific image Sg. By displaying the customized image Cg preferentially over the specific image Sg in the standby part where the number of specific pitches is difficult to change, the specific image Sg and the customized image Cg can be suitably displayed in the standby part.

(1-8) When the progress part of the gaming machine is the standby part, the demonstration image Dg has a lower display priority than the specific image Sg. The demonstration image Dg is information that constitutes a demonstration performance for obtaining a customer attraction effect. In other words, when the demonstration image Dg is displayed, it is assumed that there are no players playing the pachinko game machine 10. Here, if the display priority of the specific image Sg is lower than that of the demonstration image Dg, it may be difficult for the player to recognize whether the game execution is likely to be restricted before starting a new game. There is. Although there is such a possibility, in the standby part where it is assumed that there are no players playing the pachinko game machine 10, by displaying the specific image Sg preferentially compared to the demonstration image Dg, the standby part can be improved. , the specific image Sg and the demonstration image Dg can be suitably displayed.

(1-9) When the gaming state is a low probability non-time saving state and the progress part of the gaming machine is a variable part, the first performance symbol EZ1 has a higher display priority than the specific image Sg.

(1-14) When the progress part of the gaming machine is the jackpot part, the first right-handed image Gm1 and the second right-handed image Gm2 have a higher display priority than the specific image Sg. The hitting information in the jackpot part is information that instructs a firing operation that makes it easier for the specific number of balls to reach the upper limit number in the jackpot part. Therefore, in the jackpot part where the number of specific balls is likely to approach the upper limit, the number of specific pitches can be increased by displaying the first right-handed image Gm1 and the second right-handed image Gm2 preferentially compared to the specific image Sg. It becomes easier to reach the upper limit.

(1-15) When the progress part of the gaming machine is the jackpot part, the opening image Go has a lower display priority than the specific image Sg.

(1-17) When the progress part of the gaming machine is the jackpot part, the type image Gr3 has a lower display priority than the specific image Sg. In the jackpot part where the number of specific balls tends to approach the upper limit number, the specific image Sg and the type image Gr3 can be suitably displayed by relatively increasing the display priority of the specific image Sg.

(1-18) When the progress part of the gaming machine is the jackpot part, the passing image Gr5 has a lower display priority than the specific image Sg. In the jackpot part where the number of specific balls is likely to approach the upper limit number, by relatively increasing the display priority of the specific image Sg, the specific image Sg and the passing image Gr5 can be suitably displayed.

(1-19) The type image Gr3 is information that can specify the first effect symbol EZ1 derived in the immediately preceding variation game. In other words, it can be said that the type image Gr3 and the first effect symbol EZ1 in the immediately preceding variable game are the same type of information. However, even if the information is of the same type, the importance of the information may change depending on the situation. For example, when a variable game ends and a jackpot game is awarded, it is difficult for the specific number of balls to approach the upper limit number during the period until the variable game ends. In such a situation, the specific image Sg and the first effect pattern EZ1 can be suitably displayed by giving priority to the display of the first effect pattern EZ1 over the specific image Sg. On the other hand, during the subsequent execution of the jackpot game, the specific number of balls tends to approach the upper limit number. In such a situation, by prioritizing the display of the specific image Sg over the type image Gr3 that can identify the first effect symbol EZ1 derived in the immediately preceding variable game, the specific image Sg and the type image Gr3 can be made preferable. can be displayed.

(1-20) When the gaming state is a low-accuracy time-saving state and the progress part of the gaming machine is a variable part, the remaining number of times image Gz has a higher display priority than the specific image Sg. In a situation where it is assumed that the specific number of pitches is difficult to change, the remaining number of times image Gz is displayed preferentially compared to the specific image Sg, so that the gaming state is in a low-accuracy time-saving state and the gaming machine When the progress part is a variable part, the specific image Sg and the remaining number of times image Gz can be suitably displayed.

(1-21) When the gaming state is a low-accuracy time-saving state and the progress part of the gaming machine is a variable part, the first right-handed image Gm1 and the second right-handed image Gm2 are different from the specific image Sg. also has high display priority. In a situation where it is assumed that the specific number of pitches is difficult to change, the first right-handed image Gm1 and the second right-handed image Gm2 are displayed preferentially compared to the specific image Sg, so that the game state is less likely to change. In the time saving state and when the progress part of the gaming machine is a variable part, the specific image Sg, the first right-handed game image Gm1, and the second right-handed game image Gm2 can be suitably displayed.

(1-22) When the gaming state is a low-accuracy time-saving state and the progress part of the gaming machine is a variable part, the first performance symbol EZ1 has a higher display priority than the specific image Sg. In a situation where it is assumed that the specific number of balls is difficult to change, by displaying the first effect pattern EZ1 preferentially compared to the specific image Sg, the game state is a low accuracy time saving state and the game When the progress part of the machine is the variable part, the specific image Sg and the first effect pattern EZ1 can be suitably displayed.

(1-23) The specific image Sg includes a plurality of unit images. The display mode of the plurality of unit images changes depending on the current number of specific pitches. That is, it is possible to recognize in stages that the specific number of pitches is likely to reach the upper limit number from the display mode of the specific image Sg.

(1-24) The first unit image Mgt1 changes from the normal display mode to the specific display mode when the number of specific pitches increases by the first number, and from the time of the change, the number of specific pitches decreases by the second number. Taking this as an opportunity, the specific display mode changes to the normal display mode. The first number and the second number are the same. This makes it easy for the player to recognize the change rule for the display mode of the first unit image Mgt1, and as a result, it is easy for the player to recognize the current specific number of pitches from the display mode of the specific image Sg.

(1-25) The first number and the second number are larger than the expected number of balls in a predetermined jackpot game. According to this, it is possible to suppress frequent changes in the display mode of the specific image Sg.
(1-26) When the number of specific pitches decreases from the upper limit number and reaches the end number, by terminating the display of the specific image Sg, the game can be executed more easily than when the number of specific pitches reaches the specific number. It is possible to make it easier to recognize that the situation has changed to a situation where it is difficult to restrict.

(1-27) The display priority of the special image Gcp is the same regardless of the progress part of the gaming machine when the special image Gcp is displayed. Here, the special image Gcp is information displayed when the execution of the game is restricted. Therefore, the special image Gcp is information with higher importance than the specific image Sg displayed before the execution of the game is restricted. By suppressing changes in the display priority of such highly important information, the player can easily recognize the special image Gcp, which is highly important information.

(1-28) The specific image Sg and the special image Gcp have different display positions. According to this, the specific image Sg and the special image Gcp can be suitably displayed according to the difference in importance.

(1-29) The specific image Sg has a smaller display area than the special image Gcp. According to this, by displaying the special image Gcp larger than the size of the special image Gcp, the player can easily recognize the special image Gcp, which is information with high importance.

(1-32) The special image Gcp includes unique information unique to the model. In this embodiment, the closer the specific number of balls is to the upper limit number, the more likely it is that the execution of the game will be restricted. Therefore, the closer the specific number of balls is to the upper limit number, the more the player's desire to play may decrease. Although there is such a possibility, in this embodiment, the special image Gcp displayed when the number of specific pitches reaches the upper limit number includes unique information unique to the manufacturer. According to this, as a result of being able to improve the value of the special image Gcp, the closer the specific number of pitches is to the upper limit number, the more the player's desire to see the special image Gcp can be improved.

(1-33) The payout error image Hg has a higher display priority than the specific image Sg. When the payout error image Hg is displayed, there is a possibility that the prize balls are not being paid out normally. Therefore, when the payout error image Hg and the specific image Sg are displayed, if the player recognizes the specific image Sg but does not recognize the payout error image Hg, the specific number of balls estimated from the specific image Sg As a result, a discrepancy occurs in the number of game balls paid out as prize balls, which may give players a sense of distrust. In this embodiment, when the payout error image Hg and the specific image Sg are displayed, by displaying the payout error image Hg with priority, the specific number of balls estimated from the specific image Sg and the payout as the prize ball can be calculated. It is easy to recognize that the discrepancy with the number of game balls put out is due to a payout error.

(1-34) The payout error image Hg has a higher display priority than the special image Gcp. The special image Gcp is information that can specify that the specific number of pitches has reached the upper limit number. Therefore, when the payout error image Hg and the special image Gcp are displayed, if the player recognizes the special image Gcp but does not recognize the payout error image Hg, the number of game balls paid out as prize balls. As a result, the number of pitches deviates from the specific number of pitches, which may give the player a sense of distrust. In this embodiment, when the payout error image Hg and the special image Gcp are displayed, by displaying the payout error image Hg with priority, the number of game balls paid out as prize balls and the number of specific balls are determined. It is easy to recognize that the deviation is due to a payout error.

(1-35) When the specific number of pitches reaches the upper limit number, execution of the game on the gaming machine is restricted, but display of the base value is allowed. According to this, when the number of specified balls reaches the upper limit, by checking the base value, employees at the game parlor will be able to identify whether game balls have been paid out as prize balls due to fraudulent activity. can.

(1-36) Even when the execution of games is restricted, the base value may fluctuate. According to this, even if the number of specific pitches reaches the upper limit, it is possible to accurately count the base value.

(1-37) The supply start image Gp1 and the return image Gp2 have a lower display priority than the special image Gcp.

That is, when the progress part of the gaming machine is a specific part, the specific image Sg may be arranged in a layer with a higher priority than when the progress part of the gaming machine is a special part. For example, the specific image Sg may be able to be displayed at different display positions depending on the display situation. That is, the specific image Sg may be able to be displayed at a different display position when the progress part of the gaming machine is the specific part than when the progress part of the gaming machine is the special part. In this case, when the progress part of the gaming machine is a specific part, the specific image Sg can be displayed at a display position that does not overlap with the information (image) dedicated to the specific part, and when the progress part of the gaming machine is a special part. In this case, it is preferable that the information can be displayed at a display position that does not overlap with information (images) dedicated to the special part. For example, the display content of the specific image Sg may vary depending on the display situation. That is, the specific image Sg may be a different image when the progress part of the gaming machine is the specific part and when the progress part of the gaming machine is the special part.

- It may be possible to display any image (information) in addition to or in place of the above various images (information). As an example, the arbitrary image (information) may include an away image (information) that can specify that the player is temporarily away from the player's seat. For example, the away image may be displayed when the player operates operating means such as the production button BT, the production lever LV, and the cross button JB. As an example, the away image may have a higher display priority than the specific image Sg. As an example, the away image may have a lower display priority than the specific image Sg. As an example, the away image may have a higher display priority than the special image Gcp. As an example, the away image may have a lower display priority than the special image Gcp.

As an example, the pre-reach performance may include a display of a pre-reach performance image different from the pre-reach performance image Gb. In this case, the pre-reach effect image Gb and another pre-reach effect image may be arranged in different layers. For example, the pre-reach effect image Gb may be placed in a layer with a higher display priority than the specific image Sg, while another pre-reach effect image may be placed in a layer with a lower display priority than the specific image Sg. good. That is, when the pre-reach effect image Gb and the specific image Sg are displayed on the effect display device EH, the pre-reach effect image Gb has a higher display priority than the specific image Sg, while in the effect display device EH, When another ready-to-reach effect image and the specific image Sg are displayed, the other ready-to-reach effect image may have a lower display priority than the specific image Sg.

As an example, the ready-to-reach effect may include displaying a ready-to-reach effect image different from the SR effect image Gs. In this case, the SR effect image Gs and another reach effect image may be arranged in different layers. For example, the SR effect image Gs may be placed in a layer with a higher display priority than the specific image Sg, while another reach effect image may be placed in a layer with a lower display priority than the specific image Sg. That is, when the SR effect image Gs and the specific image Sg are displayed on the effect display device EH, the SR effect image Gs has a higher display priority than the specific image Sg, while the effect display device EH has a higher display priority than the specific image Sg. When the reach effect image and the specific image Sg are displayed, another reach effect image may have a lower display priority than the specific image Sg.

- Each of the various effects described above may include at least one of a sound effect by the speaker SP and a light emission effect by the decorative lamp LA in addition to or instead of the display effect by the effect display device EH. Moreover, each of the above-mentioned various effects may include an action effect using a movable body. As an example, the movable body is movable to at least a first position and a second position, and is provided on the game board YB.

- In the above embodiment, when a game ball enters the first grand prize opening 14 or the second grand prize opening 15 when it is not the predetermined winning permissible period, prize balls are awarded to a specific number of balls. The numbers may not be added. In other words, when an unauthorized winning error is set, the number of prize balls is not added to the specific number of balls when a game ball enters the first grand prize opening 14 or the second grand prize opening 15. You can.

- In the above embodiment, if a game ball enters the first grand prize opening 14 or the second grand prize opening 15 when it is not the predetermined winning permissible period, the conditions for awarding the prize ball are not satisfied. You can. In other words, when a game ball enters the first grand prize opening 14 or the second grand prize opening 15 and an illegal winning error is set, the conditions for awarding the prize ball do not need to be satisfied.

- The length of the winning permissible period may vary depending on whether or not the completion function is on standby when the last round game in the jackpot game ends. As an example, the winning permissible period may be shorter when the activation of the complete function is on standby when the last round game in the jackpot game ends than when the activation of the complete function is not on standby. In other words, while the complete function is waiting for activation, when the last round game in the jackpot game is finished, the second allowable winning time that is shorter than the first allowable winning time (for example, 5 seconds) has passed, and the winning allowable time is activated. The period may end.

- As an example, while the game is stopped, the functions that are restricted in the pachinko gaming machine 10 may be changed arbitrarily. For example, while the game is stopped, the game ball firing function may be restricted. In other words, the pachinko game machine 10 may be configured to be unable to shoot game balls while the game is stopped.

・The high ball entry rate state may be controlled when the number of executions of a special game executed while in the low probability state reaches a predetermined ceiling number, and the low probability state The control may be triggered by the derivation of a time-saving symbol in a special game executed at a certain time. In this case, when controlled to be in a low-reliability time-saving state, the display modes of the various images may be different depending on the control trigger. As an example, the time saving symbol is a symbol different from the jackpot symbol and the losing symbol.

- In the pachinko game machine 10, the power supply is cut off when the specific number of balls reaches the upper limit number during execution of a predetermined jackpot game, and when the power supply is started thereafter, the jackpot game is restarted. On the other hand, the complete function may not operate after the end of the jackpot game. As an example, by setting the complete function standby flag as non-backup information, the complete function may be prevented from operating after the end of the jackpot game restarted with the start of power supply. In this case, if the RAM clear switch 46 is not operated when the power supply is started, the pachinko game machine 10 is restored based on the game information and the jackpot game is restarted, while the complete function activation standby flag is By being initialized, the complete function will not operate when the restarted jackpot game ends. Further, as an example, when the main CPU 41 ends a jackpot game, it is determined whether or not the completion function is on standby based on whether or not the specific number of balls has reached the upper limit number, thereby supplying power. The complete function may not be activated after the jackpot game restarted with the start of the game. In this case, if the RAM clear switch 46 is not operated when the power supply is started, the pachinko game machine 10 is restored based on the game information, and the jackpot game is restarted, while the specific number of balls is initialized. As a result, the complete function does not operate when the resumed jackpot game ends. Note that when determining whether or not the complete function is on standby based on whether the specific number of pitches has reached the upper limit number, the main RAM 43 may not store the complete function standby flag. . That is, when the specific number of balls reaches the upper limit number during execution of the jackpot game, it is not necessary to perform the process of step S207.

- When the complete function is on standby, the power supply may be cut off, and then when the power supply is started, it may be possible to back up a specific number of pitches. That is, whether or not the specific number of pitches is backed up may differ depending on whether or not the completion function is on standby. Further, when the complete function is activated, the power supply may be cut off, and then when the power supply is started, it may be possible to back up a specific number of pitches. In other words, whether or not the specific number of pitches is backed up may differ depending on whether the number reaches the upper limit or not.

- When power supply is started, the main CPU 41 may be configured not to store an operation standby command in the output buffer even if the operation of the complete function is standby. In other words, when power supply is started, an operation standby command may not be output.

- When the operation standby command is input, the sub CPU 51 displays the first unit image Mgt1, second unit image Mgt2, third unit image Mgt3, and fourth unit image, regardless of whether or not the specific image Sg is being displayed. The effect display device EH may be controlled to display Mgt4, the fifth unit image Mgt5, and the message image Mg in a specific display mode. In this case, if the complete function is on standby when power supply is started, the effect display device EH can display the specific image Sg. In addition, when configured in this way, when the sub CPU 51 inputs the operation standby command, it is possible to specify that the complete function is in the operation standby state regardless of whether or not the specific image Sg is being displayed. Additionally, the complete function status information stored in the secondary RAM 53 may be updated.

- The first number may be changed arbitrarily. As an example, the first number may be a larger number than the second number. As an example, the first number may be a smaller number than the second number. As an example, the first number may be the same as the expected number of balls in a predetermined jackpot game. As an example, the first number may be larger than the expected number of balls in a predetermined jackpot game.

- The second number may be changed arbitrarily. As an example, the second number may be a larger number than the first number. As an example, the second number may be a smaller number than the first number. As an example, the second number may be the same as the expected number of balls in a predetermined jackpot game. As an example, the second number may be larger than the expected number of balls in a predetermined jackpot game.

- In addition to or in place of the first jackpot game, second jackpot game, and third jackpot game, another jackpot game may be executable. In this case, there may be one type of another jackpot game, or there may be multiple types. As an example, another jackpot game may include a jackpot game in which the expected number of balls to be put out is set to be a smaller number than the first number. As an example, another jackpot game may include a jackpot game in which the expected number of balls to be put out is the same as the first number. As an example, another jackpot game may include a jackpot game in which an expected number of balls to be put out is set to be larger than the first number. As an example, another jackpot game may include a jackpot game in which the expected number of balls to be put out is set to be smaller than the second number. As an example, another jackpot game may include a jackpot game in which the expected number of balls to be put out is the same as the second number. As an example, another jackpot game may include a jackpot game in which an expected number of balls to be put out is set to be larger than the second number. As an example, another jackpot game may include a jackpot game that is controlled to a low-probability non-time-saving state after the game ends. As an example, another jackpot game may include a jackpot game that is controlled to a low probability time saving state after the end. As an example, another jackpot game may include a jackpot game that is controlled to a highly accurate non-time-saving state after the game ends. As an example, another jackpot game may include a jackpot game that is controlled to a highly accurate time-saving state after the end.

- The effect display device EH may be capable of displaying a background image as background information. As an example, the display content of the background image may vary depending on the gaming state. As an example, the display content of the background image may differ depending on the production mode. As an example, the background image may be placed in a layer with a higher display priority than the special image Gcp. That is, in the effect display device EH, when the background image and the special image Gcp are displayed, the background image may have a higher display priority than the special image Gcp. As an example, the background image may be placed in a layer with a lower display priority than the special image Gcp. That is, in the effect display device EH, when the background image and the special image Gcp are displayed, the background image may have a lower display priority than the special image Gcp. As an example, the background image may be placed in a layer with a higher display priority than the specific image Sg. That is, in the effect display device EH, when the background image and the specific image Sg are displayed, the background image may have a higher display priority than the specific image Sg. As an example, the background image may be placed in a layer with lower display priority than the specific image Sg. That is, when the background image and the specific image Sg are displayed on the effect display device EH, the background image may have a lower display priority than the specific image Sg.

As an example, when the gaming state is a low probability non-time saving state and the progress part of the gaming machine is a variable part, the background image may have a lower display priority than the specific image Sg. In this case, the specific image Sg and the background image can be suitably displayed when the gaming state is a low-reliability non-time-saving state and the progress part of the gaming machine is a variable part. As an example, when the gaming state is a low probability time saving state and the progress part of the gaming machine is a variable part, the background image may have a lower display priority than the specific image Sg. In this case, the specific image Sg and the background image can be suitably displayed when the gaming state is a low-accuracy time-saving state and the progress part of the gaming machine is a variable part. As an example, when the gaming state is a high-precision non-time-saving state and the progress part of the gaming machine is a variable part, the background image may have a lower display priority than the specific image Sg. In this case, the specific image Sg and the background image can be suitably displayed when the gaming state is a highly accurate non-time-saving state and the progress part of the gaming machine is a variable part. As an example, when the gaming state is a high-accuracy time-saving state and the progress part of the gaming machine is a variable part, the background image may have a lower display priority than the specific image Sg. In this case, the specific image Sg and the background image can be suitably displayed when the gaming state is a highly accurate time saving state and the progress part of the gaming machine is a variable part. As an example, the display priority of background images may vary depending on the type of the background image.

- In the above embodiment, the base value is counted when the gaming state is a low probability non-time saving state, but the present invention is not limited to this. The base value may be counted regardless of the gaming state, or the base value in any gaming state may be counted. Moreover, a plurality of base values may be counted. In other words, the base value includes the base value when the gaming state is a low-probability non-time-saving state, the base value when the gaming state is a low-probability non-time-saving state, and the base value when the gaming state is a high-probability non-time-saving state. , there may be a base value when the gaming state is a high-accuracy time-saving state. In addition, the base value includes a base value when one or more gaming states are arbitrarily selected from among the low-accuracy non-time-saving state, the low-accuracy time-saving state, the high-accuracy non-time-saving state, and the high-accuracy time-saving state. You can. According to this, regardless of the gaming state when the execution of the game is restricted, the base value can fluctuate after the execution of the game is restricted.

- The pachinko gaming machine 10 does not need to include some or all of the performance button BT, the performance lever LV, and the cross button JB, and may be equipped with operating means different from these.
- The effect display device EH is not limited to being configured to include one display unit that can display various images, but may be configured to include a plurality of display units. The effect display device EH may be configured in combination with a movable body configured to enable predetermined operations. A part or all of the one or more display sections constituting the effect display device EH may be provided on the game board YB, or may be provided on the mounting frame 11b.

- The first variable game and the second variable game may be executed in the order in which the suspension condition is satisfied.
- The pachinko gaming machine 10 has a specification that provides a high probability state until the next jackpot game, a specification that provides a high probability state until winning the falling lottery (so-called falling specification), or until a specified number of variable games are completed. A specification that provides a high probability state (so-called ST specification) can be adopted. Even if the ST specification pachinko gaming machine 10 is capable of displaying ST information that can specify the remaining number of fluctuating games that can be executed in the high probability state when the gaming state is in the high probability state, if the jackpot is not won. good. As an example, the ST information may have a higher display priority than the special image Gcp. As an example, the ST information may have a lower display priority than the special image Gcp. As an example, the ST information may have a higher display priority than the specific image Sg. As an example, the ST information may have a lower display priority than the specific image Sg. The pachinko game machine 10 can adopt a specification (so-called V probability variable specification) that provides a high probability state on the condition that the game ball passes through a specific area. The pachinko game machine 10 may have a specification that is a combination of a falling specification and a V-probability variation specification. The pachinko game machine 10 may have a specification that is a mixture of the ST specification and the V probability variable specification.

- The special symbol winning lottery may include a small winning lottery in addition to the jackpot lottery. If a small win is won in the winning lottery, a small win game (win game) will be awarded after the special game ends. As an example, in a high probability non-time saving state, compared to a low probability non time saving state, the number of times small winnings are won per unit time (frequency), or the number of times small winning games are given per unit time (frequency). ) may be improved (so-called small hit RUSH specification). In other words, the highly accurate non-time saving state may be a state in which the number of specific pitches is likely to increase. In this case, when the gaming state is a high probability non-time saving state and the progress part of the gaming machine is a variable part, the gaming state is a low probability non time saving state and the progress part of the gaming machine is a variable part. The display priority of the specific image Sg may be set relatively high compared to when the specific image Sg is a part-time image.

- The pachinko game machine 10 may adopt specifications classified into the second type, which is also called a "feather type" or "plane type." In this type of pachinko game machine, when a game ball enters the starting hole, the opening/closing blade (opening/closing member) of the ball entering device (big prize hole) opens, and the game ball that enters the ball entering device wins a special prize. A jackpot game occurs when the ball enters the mouth.

- The main CPU 41, main ROM 42, main RAM 43, and random number generation circuit 44 may be configured on one chip.
- The specific configuration of the game board YB may be changed arbitrarily.

- The pachinko gaming machine 10 may include a frame board in addition to the main board 40 and the sub board 50. As an example, the frame board includes a frame CPU, a frame ROM, and a frame RAM. When configured in this way, in addition to or in place of the main CPU 41, the frame CPU may be capable of counting the specific number of pitches. As an example, the frame CPU can input various award ball commands from the main CPU 41, as well as input ball use commands, and may count the specific number of balls based on these control commands. As an example, the use ball command is a control command output when the main CPU 41 specifies that a game ball is used. As an example, the frame CPU inputs signals related to prize balls such as the first starting sensor SE1, second starting sensor SE2, first count sensor SE3, and second count sensor SE4, and signals related to used balls such as the used ball sensor SE8. In addition to being possible, it may also be possible to count the specific number of pitches based on these signals. As an example, the frame CPU, frame ROM, and frame RAM may be configured on one chip.

- In addition to the main CPU 41, the sub CPU 51 may be able to count the number of specific pitches. As an example, the sub CPU 51 can input various award ball commands as well as input ball commands, and may count the number of specific balls based on these control commands. In this case, the specific number of pitches command may be omitted. In addition, the specific number of pitches commands are executed when the specific number of pitches reaches a specific number, when the first specified number is reached, when the second specified number is reached, when the third specified number is reached, and when the specified number of balls reaches the specified number. When the specified number is reached, when the fifth specified number is reached, when the sixth specified number is reached, when the seventh specified number is reached, when the eighth specified number is reached, and when the end number is reached. , may be output in any situation. That is, the sub CPU 51 determines, based on the specific number command, when the specific number of balls reaches a specific number, when the first specified number is reached, when the second specified number is reached, and when the specified number of pitches is reached, the third specified number is reached. When the 4th specified number is reached, When the 5th specified number is reached, When the 6th specified number is reached, When the 7th specified number is reached, When the 8th specified number is reached, and when the end number is reached. It may also be possible to specify when the time has been reached. When the sub CPU 51 is configured to be able to count the specific number of pitches in addition to the main CPU 41, the main CPU 41 is an example of a counting means and an example of a first counting means among the counting means. Further, when the sub CPU 51 is configured to be able to count the specific number of pitches in addition to the main CPU 41, the sub CPU 51 is an example of a counting means and an example of a second counting means among the counting means. When the sub CPU 51 is configured to be able to count the specific number of pitches in addition to the main CPU 41, the specific number of pitches counted by the main CPU 41 is an example of the first specific number of pitches. When the sub CPU 51 is configured to be able to count the specific number of pitches in addition to the main CPU 41, the specific number of pitches counted by the sub CPU 51 is an example of the second specific number of pitches. As an example, when the sub CPU 51 is configured to be able to count the specific number of balls in addition to the main CPU 41, the first specific number of balls is information related to stopping the game, and the second specific number of balls is information related to the display mode of the specific image Sg. There may be. In other words, when the first specific number of balls reaches the upper limit, the execution of the game on the gaming machine is restricted, but even if the second specific number of balls reaches the upper limit, the execution of the game on the gaming machine is restricted. May be acceptable. Further, in the effect display device EH, the specific image Sg is displayed when the second specific number of pitches reaches a specific number, while the specific image Sg is displayed even if the first specific number of pitches reaches a specific number. It does not have to be displayed.

In addition to the main CPU 41, when another CPU counts a specific number of pitches based on a control command from the main CPU 41, the timing at which the main CPU 41 executes the specific number of pitches counting process and the output timing of various control commands; Due to the difference, the number of specific pitches counted by the main CPU 41 and another CPU may deviate from each other. In other words, after the main CPU 41 executes the specific number of pitches counting process, and until another CPU counts the specific number of pitches based on the input of the control command from the main CPU 41, the main CPU 41 and another The specific number of pitches counted by the CPU may deviate from each other. Further, when outputting a control command to another CPU, the main CPU 41 stores the control command in an output buffer, and then outputs the control command to another CPU when an output condition is satisfied. The control command stored in the output buffer is backup information, while the specific number of pitches is non-backup information. Therefore, if the power supply is cut off after the main CPU 41 executes the specific pitch counting process but before the control command stored in the output buffer is output, the main CPU 41 will start counting when the power supply starts. While the specific number of pitches is zero, the specific number of pitches counted by another CPU may be increased based on the control command stored in the output buffer before the power is turned off. In such a situation, the main CPU 41 and another CPU may The specific number of pitches counted may deviate. As an example, if the maximum number of control commands that can be stored in the output buffer is 32 and the maximum number of prize balls is 15, the number of specific balls counted by the main CPU 41 and another CPU may differ by up to 480. do. That is, as an example, the maximum number by which the specific number of pitches counted by the main CPU 41 and another CPU may deviate (hereinafter referred to as the assumed upper limit number of deviation numbers) is a number smaller than the first number. As an example, the assumed upper limit number of deviation numbers is a number smaller than the second number. Even if there is a discrepancy between the specific number of pitches counted by the main CPU 41 and another CPU, the expected upper limit of the number of discrepancies is smaller than the first number and the second number, so the display mode of the specific image Sg As a result of making it difficult for the player to recognize that a deviation has occurred, it is possible to prevent the player from misperceiving that the execution of the game is likely to be restricted. In particular, the first number and the second number are larger than twice the assumed upper limit number of deviation numbers. Therefore, it is possible to further prevent the player from misperceiving that the execution of the game is likely to be restricted based on the display mode of the specific image Sg. As an example, the expected upper limit of the number of deviations is a number smaller than the expected number of balls in a predetermined jackpot game.

As an example, the maximum number of control commands that can be stored in the output buffer may be changed arbitrarily. That is, as an example, the assumed upper limit number of deviation numbers may be a number larger than the first number. Further, as an example, the assumed upper limit number of the number of deviations may be the same number as the first number. Furthermore, as an example, the assumed upper limit number of deviation numbers may be a number larger than the second number. Further, as an example, the assumed upper limit number of the number of deviations may be the same number as the second number. Further, as an example, the expected upper limit number of deviation numbers may be a number larger than the expected number of balls to be rolled out in a predetermined jackpot game. Further, as an example, the assumed upper limit number of deviation numbers may be the same number as the expected number of balls to be rolled out in a predetermined jackpot game.

- The pachinko gaming machine 10 uses the sub-board 50 as a sub-integration control board, and separately from the sub-board 50, there are a display control board that exclusively controls the effect display device EH, a light emission control board that exclusively controls the decorative lamp LA, and a speaker SP. It may also be equipped with a sound control board for specialized control. The sub-board may include such a sub-integration control board and a board for controlling other effects. Further, in the embodiment, the main CPU 41 and the sub CPU 51 may be mounted on a single board. Further, the display control board, the light emission control board, and the sound control board may be arbitrarily combined to form a single board or a plurality of boards.

- The above embodiment may be applied to a slot machine. In a slot machine, the number of bets (also called the number of bets) can be set by operating the BET button or inserting medals. In a slot machine, when the start lever is operated after setting the number of bets, multiple reels rotate. In a slot machine, when a stop button is operated after a plurality of reels are spinning, the rotation of the corresponding reel is stopped. In the slot machine, when all the reels stop rotating, prizes (awarding medals, replays) are awarded according to the symbol combinations that have stopped. In a slot machine, at least one variable game includes the period from when the start lever is operated with the number of bets set until all the reels stop rotating. In addition, some slot machines have a prize lottery in which it is possible to win a bonus prize in the prize lottery. In such a slot machine, when a symbol combination corresponding to a bonus combination is derived on a winning line and a bonus combination is won, a bonus game is awarded. The bonus game corresponds to a jackpot game of the pachinko game machine 10.

Further, some slot machines are configured to be able to control one of a plurality of gaming states in which the probability of winning a specific winning combination, such as a replay winning combination (replay winning combination), is different in the winning lottery. In a gaming state (so-called RT state) where the probability of winning a specific role such as a replay role is higher than in the normal gaming state, the number of balls held increases or the number of balls held decreases compared to the normal gaming state. This is an advantageous gaming state for the player.

Furthermore, some slot machines can be controlled to a state (so-called AT state) in which the operating mode of the stop button for winning a predetermined winning combination is notified. The AT state is a game that is advantageous for the player because it is easier to win a predetermined combination than in the normal game state, so the number of balls in possession increases, or the number of balls in possession is less likely to decrease compared to the normal game state. state. Among slot machines that can be controlled to be in the AT state, there are those that can perform a performance imitating a bonus game in the AT state, and there are slot machines that can more easily increase the number of balls held in the AT state than in the bonus game. In such a slot machine, the AT state can be said to correspond to the jackpot game of the pachinko game machine 10.

The technical ideas that can be understood from the above embodiment and modification examples will be described.
