Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an improvement of a pachinko machine in which a "right" which is advantageous to a player is generated according to the type of identification information displayed on a display device based on a winning of a predetermined winning hole. .

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A pachinko machine is provided with a device for displaying predetermined identification information on a game board, and there is a model in which a winning probability increases by a predetermined time depending on the type of identification information. It is adopted in all of the so-called first to third type pachinko games.

In this type of pachinko machine, for example, a pachinko ball (hereinafter referred to as a launch ball) that is launched on a game board by a launching device passes through a special starting area provided on the surface of the game board, in other words, a special starting opening is won. To start a special game.

When the special game is started, the special display device variably displays a plurality of types of special identification information for a predetermined variable display time, and then one of the special identification information is displayed in one column (digit).
Alternatively, a stop display is visually displayed over a plurality of rows (hereinafter, stop display).

The special identification information is mainly numbers, characters, pictures and symbols, and the special identification information stopped and displayed on the special display device during the special game is a predetermined specific identification information, or When the combination of specific special identification information is configured, the special winning opening of the variable winning ball device that is normally closed is continuously opened for a predetermined time.

This open state continues until at least one of the following conditions is satisfied, from the start of opening the special winning opening until approximately 30 seconds have elapsed, or until 10 balls have been launched into the special winning opening. To be done.

Therefore, since the variable winning ball device which does not normally give a prize to the launch ball causes the launch ball to win from the special winning opening,
Since the winning probability of the launch ball increases by a predetermined time compared to the normal time, a "right" that is advantageous to the player (hereinafter, "right") is generated, and during the generation of the "right", the player wins a big winning opening. You can exercise your "rights" by winning the launch ball.

The above “right” is hereinafter referred to as “special right”, special identification information for generating the “special right”, or a combination of the special identification information is referred to as “special right occurrence information”, and the special right occurrence information is stopped. When the message is displayed, it is said that the right generation condition is satisfied.

Generally, if the special display device has a display configuration of one row and one column, the special right occurrence information is a specific one of the special identification information (character, symbol or numeral to, for example, "7"). In the case of a multi-row or multi-row, multi-column display configuration, it consists of a combination of specific special identification information (for example, so-called doublet "7,7,7", a combination of specific characters ~ for example, Shochikuume). Models are the mainstream.

Next, this special right occurrence information is stored in a plurality of columns,
For example, a model that generates a "special right" is set as a condition for generating a right when stopped and displayed at 1 row and 3 columns.
The flow of a typical special game will be briefly described below.

First, when the launch ball wins the special starting port, the special game is started, and the special display device variably displays the special identification information in all columns. This variable display is represented by, for example, a moving image that reminds of the rotation operation of the reel of the slot machine.

When a predetermined variable display time elapses after that, the special display device sequentially stops the variable display one column at a time in a predetermined order, for example, the left column, the right column, and the middle column, while displaying any of the special identification information. Display stop in each row.

During the transition from the variable display to the stop display, in the conventional model, the same special identification information is stopped and displayed on the left and right columns of the special display device, thereby forming part of the special right occurrence information. The special display device indicates to the player that the "special right" may occur by shifting to the so-called reach display mode.

The display mode of the reach display is configured such that the special display device displays the special identification information in a color different from that in the normal variable display, and the moving image speed of the variable display is changed. At the same time, a sound effect is generated to emphasize the reach display state.

In the middle row, the reach display is changed to the stop display state, and when the special identification information in the middle row is stopped and displayed, it is visually checked whether the special right occurrence information is stopped and displayed on the special display device. It becomes possible to recognize, and when a “special right” occurs, it can be exercised to increase the number of concentrated prize balls in a relatively short time.

This "special right" is renewed when the launch ball that has won a particular area, for example, the special winning opening, passes through the continuous winning area (continuous winning opening) within the special winning opening during the exercise. "Special rights" that are in effect at that time
After the end of the, a new “special right” will be issued only once, and the “special right” can be exercised.

The maximum number of renewals is 15 as a rule, and if the number of times of occurrence of the "special right" is added as one, it is possible to exercise the "special right" 16 times in total.

Further, the game board is provided with a normal starting area (or a normal starting opening) different from the special starting opening, and a normal display device that operates based on the passage (or winning) of a launch ball to the normal starting area is specially provided. There is a model in which a normal game different from the special game is provided by providing the game board separately from the display device.

This normal game is started based on the passage of a launch ball to the normal starting area, and a plurality of kinds of normal identification information are variably displayed on the normal display device for a predetermined normal variation time. Ordinarily, the display is stopped and displayed.

When the ordinary identification information stopped and displayed is the specific ordinary identification information (hereinafter, ordinary right generation information), the ordinary electric accessory, such as a so-called electric tulip, is opened for a predetermined time.

As a result, the ordinary electric accessory is moved from the closed state in which only one ball can be won at a time to the open state in which a plurality of balls can be won, as compared with the closed state. It is easier for the launch ball to win the prize, which is advantageous for the player
The “ordinary right” will be generated separately from the “special right”.

This “ordinary right” is such that, for each occurrence of the display of the ordinary right occurrence information, the ordinary electric auditors only repeat the opening for about 5 to 6 seconds at the maximum once, or at most about 5 times. Therefore, the “ordinary right” is not renewed like the “special right”.

In addition, when exercising the “ordinary right”, the launching ball is awarded to the ordinary electric accessory in the open state. However, from the viewpoint of the time of occurrence and the presence or absence of renewal, the number of prize balls obtained by each exercising is Absolutely less than when "special rights" were exercised, "ordinary rights" have a lower degree of advantage than "special rights."

Further, the probability of occurrence of the “ordinary right”, that is, the probability that the condition for occurrence of the “ordinary right” (hereinafter, ordinary condition for generating ordinary right) in which the ordinary display device stops and displays the ordinary right occurrence information (hereinafter, ordinary condition) is satisfied. The value of probability of right generation is "1/5
0 to 1/10 ”, the probability of occurrence of the“ special right ”, in other words, the condition for generating the“ special right ”in which the special display device stops displaying the special right occurrence information (hereinafter, the special right occurrence condition ) Is satisfied (hereinafter, the probability of occurrence of a special right) is about 1/400 to 1/200, and the value is "ordinary right"
Are more likely to occur than “special rights”.

By the way, a plurality of types of special right occurrence information (“0
~ 15 "), and that the special special right occurrence information (" 3 "," 5 "," 7 "or" 9 ") is stopped and displayed, the change determination condition is" When a "special right" occurs, the value of one or both of the probability of occurrence of ordinary rights and the probability of occurrence of special rights fluctuates from the termination of exercise of that "special right" until the next or subsequent occurrence of the "special right". There is something to do.

In the above model, the "special right" is generated based on the stop display of the special right occurrence information (each of the 0's to 2,4,6,8,10 to 15) different from the specific special right occurrence information. ", The condition for determining the change is not satisfied, and the value of any right occurrence probability does not change.

In the above-mentioned conventional example, the probability that the above-mentioned fluctuation determination condition is satisfied (hereinafter, fluctuation determination probability) is the value of the special right occurrence probability (“1/400 to 1/200”) and the special right occurrence probability. It is given as the product of the probability value (= 1/4 = 4/16) that the specific special right occurrence information is displayed when the condition is satisfied.

In the conventional example in which the probability of occurrence of ordinary rights fluctuates,
Relatively higher probability (hereinafter, usually the first probability ~ 9 /
10) and a lower probability (hereinafter, usually the second probability ~ 1 /
There is a model that sets 10) and sets the first probability value to about 9 times the second probability value.

In the example in which the special right occurrence probability fluctuates, a relatively higher probability (hereinafter, the special first probability to, for example, 1/5).
0) and lower probabilities (hereinafter, special second probabilities ~ 1 /
300) and the special first probability value is set to 6 of the special second probability value.
There are models that are set to double.

In this conventional model, when the variation determining condition is satisfied, one or both of the “ordinary right” and the “special right” occurrence probability value is the occurrence of the “special right” when the variation determining condition is satisfied. After the exercise of the "special right", after the exercise of the "special right", through the special game from the normal game state,
It will continue until a new “special right” arises.

Specifically, when the type of the special right occurrence information for generating the "special right" corresponds to the normal game executed under the normal first probability, for example, the player usually selects the second probability. Compared with the case below, it is predicted that the degree of decrease of the prize balls already acquired (hereinafter, ball holding) will be reduced, or the prize balls will increase, forming a “favorable state” for the player. Opportunity to do is given to the player.

Similarly, at the time of determining the occurrence of the "special right", if the type of the special right occurrence information corresponds to the special game to be executed under the special first probability, for example, the player is given the special second probability. It is predicted that the number of prize balls to be paid out will be increased more than in the case below, and the player is given an opportunity to form the “advantageous state”.

Whether or not the opportunity to form this “advantageous state” is formed after the exercise of the “special right” is whether or not the variable determination condition is satisfied, that is, in the above conventional model, the special right occurrence information Depends on the type.

Therefore, if the special right occurrence information is changed from the variable display to the stop display and the possibility that the special right occurrence information is stopped and displayed is recognized, the player has no expectation for the occurrence of the "special right". Of course, the next "right"
In the meantime, there will be a sense of expectation as to whether or not a "favorable state" will be formed.

Whether or not this “advantageous state” is formed is recognized by the player at the time when the special right occurrence information has completed the stop display, but the expectation is before that, that is, the reach display. Occurs when the player recognizes.

[0036]

On the other hand, when it is recognized that the reach indication is composed of the special right occurrence information that does not satisfy the fluctuation determining condition, normally, the next time, the second probability or the special second probability is used. The normal game or the special game of 1 is executed, and the next game is never executed under the first probability.

Therefore, during the next game, the number of balls held per unit time is surely decreased, that is, the number of balls held per unit time is obtained during the game, as compared with the case of being executed under the normal first probability or the special first probability. Since it is clear that the number of prize balls will decrease, it is difficult to improve motivation to play due to the reach display even though there is a possibility of the occurrence of "special right". It is extremely difficult to attract the interest of.

Further, after the reach is displayed, even if the "special right" is generated by the special right occurrence information that does not satisfy the variation determination condition, if the next game is predicted while the "special right" is being exercised, the motivation for the game is improved. It's still difficult.

In order to make up for such a problem, after determining whether or not the "right" is generated, whether or not to execute the next game with the first probability is selected based on a predetermined probability. Was proposed.

However, in such a model, during the reach display, it is possible to estimate whether or not the next game will be executed in an advantageous state, regardless of the type of the special right occurrence information.
It is impossible at all, and the lottery probability value is constant, and it is possible to make the player have an expectation as to whether or not a special right has occurred, but it is extremely difficult to make an expectation about the next game in the reach display. Is.

Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a pachinko machine which makes the player hold the player while both the advantageous state in the next game and the occurrence of the "special right" are displayed in the reach mode.

[0042]

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a "right" which is advantageous to a player when a predetermined right generation condition is satisfied under a predetermined right generation probability. Install the prize ball device to generate the "right"
When the fluctuation determining condition different from the right generating condition is satisfied under the predetermined fluctuation determining probability, the value of the right generating probability is set to the probability based on the end of exercise of the “right”. In a pachinko machine provided with a probability increasing means for changing the right occurrence probability of a value larger than the value for a predetermined period, a plurality of values of the fluctuation determination probability are set, and corresponding to each fluctuation determination probability type, When the variation determination conditions are set differently, and when any of the variation determination conditions is satisfied, the variation of the value of the right occurrence probability is set to the variation determination probability according to the type of the variation determination condition. A feature is that the probability increasing means is provided with a variation determining unit that determines based on the value.

With the above configuration, when the right generation condition is satisfied under the right generation probability, the winning ball device generates a "right", and based on this "right" generation, one of the fluctuation determining conditions is further satisfied. Then, the change determining unit determines whether or not the value of the right occurrence probability changes according to the type of the satisfied change determining condition, based on the value of the change determining probability.

Therefore, whether or not the value of the right occurrence probability fluctuates is not recognized before the "right" is determined to be generated, and a plurality of fluctuation decision probability values are set, and the fluctuation decision condition is set according to the probability value. Since it is defined, it is difficult to predict whether the value of the right occurrence probability will change.

, And the comparative identification information is not displayed on the special display device 1.

In the normal game of this embodiment, when the normal start switch 12 detects the passage of the normal start ball immediately after the start of the normal game, the normal display circuit 49 first displays the normal game on the normal display 48 at that time. Any of the identification information “0 to 9” is displayed on the other ordinary identification information, and the types of the ordinary identification information are sequentially changed and displayed for each predetermined display cycle.

This is called variable display of the ordinary identification information, and in the present embodiment, the display cycle of the ordinary identification information is set relatively short to the extent that it cannot be visually confirmed.

This display cycle may of course be set to such a value that each of the identification information items is variably displayed in a visually observable manner.

When the ordinary identification information is continuously variably displayed for a predetermined fluctuating display time (for example, 1 minute), then the ordinary display circuit 49 causes the probability control circuit 50 and the variation condition determining circuit 51 to be infinite. Ordinary identification information corresponding to the count value fetched from one of the counters is stopped and displayed on the normal display 48 for a predetermined stop display time (for example, 2 seconds).

In the present embodiment, the infinite counter of the probability control circuit 50 is in the range of "0-9", and the variable condition determining circuit
The 51 infinite counter loops in the range of "0 to 99", and counts up by "1" together in a 4msec cycle.

When the count value fetched by the MPU 16 from the infinite counter of the probability control circuit 50 is "3", the ordinary right generating condition is satisfied, and the ordinary display circuit 49 displays the "ordinary right" on the ordinary display 48. The generated ordinary right information “7” is stopped and displayed, and the value of the ordinary display probability, that is, the value of the probability of occurrence of the “ordinary right” becomes “1/10”.

On the other hand, the MPU 16 is a variable condition determining circuit.
When the count value fetched from the infinite counter 51 is two digits, that is, "10 to 99", the normal display circuit 49 stops the normal right generation information "7" on the normal display unit 48, and the normal right generation occurs. The probability that the information "7" is displayed as a stop, that is, the probability that "normal rights" will occur is "9/10 (= 90/100)".

From the above, the value of the ordinary display probability in this embodiment, that is, the probability that the ordinary identification information stopped and displayed on the ordinary display 48 is the ordinary right occurrence information, that is, the value of the ordinary right occurrence probability is "1". It can be seen that it is either "/ 10" or "9/10".

Of the normal display probabilities, the one with the highest value is as follows, the normal first probability (= 9/10), and the one with the lower value is the normal second probability (= 1/10 <9/10 = normal). First probability).

The ordinary first probability is determined based on the MPU 16 selecting the probability control circuit 50, while the ordinary second probability is determined based on the MPU 16 selecting the variable condition determining circuit 51.

Further, in the present embodiment, when the ordinary identification information stopped and displayed on the ordinary display 48 is either "0 to 6" or "8,9", the "ordinary right" does not occur. .

Further, when the ordinary identification information is normally displayed on the ordinary display 48 based on the first probability, the MPU 16 transmits the high probability indicator 35, which is a lamp, through the interface circuit 15 and the indicator drive circuit 27. "Ordinary right" is usually second
Compared with the stop display of the normal identification information based on the probability, it is generated about 9 times more easily, and the fact that it is in an advantageous state for the player (hereinafter referred to as an advantageous state) is displayed by light emission.

Further, the variable condition determining circuit 51 is "normal right".
In addition to the infinite counter that determines whether or not the occurrence of the occurrence, that is, the type of the normal identification information, a variable condition counter (not shown) that is an infinite counter is provided for determining whether the variable determination condition is satisfied.

This variable condition counter counts up by "1" while looping in the range of "1 to 13" each time the infinite counter for determining the type of the normal identification information of the variable condition determining circuit 51 makes one cycle. ing.

The count value of the variable condition counter is fetched from the variable condition determination circuit 51 by the MPU 16 after the occurrence of the "special right" is determined, and the fetched count value is the interface circuit.
The special display circuit 5 reads through the special display circuit 5 and the comparative identification information having the same numerical value as the count value is stopped and displayed on the comparative display unit 52 by the special display circuit 5.

Then, depending on the numerical value of the comparative identification information stopped and displayed on the comparative display unit 52 and the numerical value of the special right occurrence information stopped and displayed on the special display unit 2, whether or not the fluctuation determining condition is satisfied is determined. It is determined.

In the present embodiment, the numerical value of the comparative identification information stopped and displayed on the comparative display unit 52 is smaller than the numerical value of the special right occurrence information stopped and displayed on the special display unit 2, or fluctuates when the same. The determination condition is satisfied, and a signal corresponding to that is input from the MPU 16 to the information display circuit (described later) 53 of the special display device 1 via the variation condition determination circuit 51.

Subsequently, the information display circuit 53 inputs to the special display circuit 5 that the fluctuation determining condition is satisfied immediately after the occurrence of the "special right" is determined, and the special display circuit 5 informs the fact. It is visually displayed on the special indicator 2 at a predetermined timing described later.

On the other hand, when the numerical value of the comparative identification information stopped and displayed on the comparative display 52 is larger than the numerical value of the special right occurrence information stopped and displayed on the special display 2, the fluctuation determining condition is not satisfied. Stipulate.

In the present embodiment, when the variation determining condition is satisfied and when the variation determining condition is not satisfied, the special display circuit 5 changes the color assigned to the background of various information to the upper region 7 and By making them different from each other in the lower area 8, the difference is visually recognized by the player, and at the same time, the MPU 16 drives the high probability display 35 through the interface circuit 15 and the display drive circuit 27.

The information display circuit 53 displays the special right exercise information that changes with the exercise of the "special right", for example, the total number of exercises of the "special right", which is the number of winning balls in the variable winning ball device 34.
Remaining time during which the "special right" can be generated and whether the "special right" can be renewed, etc. are visually displayed on the special display device 2 via the special display circuit 5 along with the fact that the conditions for determining fluctuations are satisfied. It is for doing.

In the present embodiment, the MPU 16 and the variation condition determining circuit 51 constitute the probability increasing means 54, and the variation condition counter of the variation condition determining circuit 51 constitutes the variation determining section. There is.

Further, the MPU 16 is provided with a plurality of systems of infinite counters, which are the first and second major players for determining whether or not the "special right" is generated, the special counter for selecting the type of special right occurrence information, and the special counter. It is composed of a special counter for determining the type of special identification information different from the right generation information.

First, the major first and second counters are MPUs.
16 counts up in increments of "1" in a predetermined cycle, 4 msec in this embodiment, the major role first counter loops in the range of "0 to 44", and the major role second counter loops in the range of "0 to 224". .

When the special starting switch 11 detects the special starting ball, the MPU 16 takes in the count value at the time of detection from only one of the first and second major role counters, and the counter is taken in by any counter. The "special right" is generated by the MPU 16 when the count value is "7".

As a result, in this embodiment, the probability that the special right occurrence information is stopped and displayed on the special display 2, that is, the value of the special right occurrence probability, the count value is fetched from the major role first counter by the MPU 16. In case of 1/4
It can be seen that it is set to "5," and is set to "1/225" when it is fetched from the second major counter.

Since the special right occurrence information is stopped and displayed on the special display unit 2, the probability that the "special right" will be generated will be described below when the MPU 16 fetches the count value from the major first counter. It is called a probability, and a case where the count value is fetched from the major second counter is called a special second probability.

Whether the MPU 16 takes in the counter from the important first or second counter is determined by the count value taken in from the variable condition counter.

When the change determining condition is satisfied, the MPU 16 determines the count value from the important first counter from the disappearance of the "special right" occurring at that time until at least the next "special right" occurs. By taking in, the special display circuit 5 causes the comparative display 52 to stop displaying the special right occurrence information based on the special first probability (= 1/45> 1/225).

Therefore, as compared with the case where the special right occurrence information is stopped and displayed based on the special second probability, the "ordinary right" is displayed.
A higher level of "special rights" is more likely to occur, and an advantageous state is formed.

On the other hand, when the variation determining condition is not satisfied,
Since the special right occurrence information is stopped and displayed based on the special second probability (= 1/225 <1/45), compared to the case where the special right occurrence information is stopped and displayed based on the special first probability, the “special right occurrence information” is displayed. "
Is unlikely to occur.

As a result, when the player plays the special game under the special first probability, the probability of occurrence of the "special right" is five times as high as when the special game is played under the special second probability. Therefore, an advantageous state is formed as compared with the special game under the special second probability.

On the other hand, regarding the “ordinary right”, when the variation determining condition is not satisfied, the MPU 16 determines the probability control circuit 50.
By taking the count value from the infinite counter of
Since the ordinary display circuit 49 normally displays the identification information on the ordinary display 48 based on the second probability (= 1/10 <9/10), the ordinary identification information is stopped and displayed based on the first probability. The “ordinary right” is less likely to occur than in the case, and therefore the number of balls held per unit time during pachinko games decreases more frequently.

When the variable determining condition is satisfied for the “ordinary right”, the MPU 16 fetches the count value from the infinite counter of the variable condition determining circuit 51 to obtain the ordinary right occurrence information as the first probability (= 9/10). > 1/10) Stop display based on (1/10), so "ordinary right" is normally second
It is more likely to occur than when stopped and displayed based on the probability, and the degree of decrease in the number of balls held per unit time during a pachinko game is suppressed.

As a result, when the player plays the normal game under the normal first probability, the probability of occurrence of the "normal right" is 9 times higher than when the normal game is played under the normal second probability. Therefore, an advantageous state is formed compared with the normal game under the normal second probability.

If the variation determining condition is not satisfied, M
The PU 16 fetches the count value from the important second counter after at least the next "special right" occurs after the "special right" occurring at that time disappears.

Further, as described above, when the MPU 16 fetches "7" from the major role first or major role second counter, the stop display of the special right occurrence information, that is, the occurrence of the "special right" is determined. In the form, the MP immediately after the decision
U16 fetches the count value from the variable condition counter and determines whether or not the variable determining condition is satisfied.

Further, in the present embodiment, when the variation determining condition is satisfied, the MPU 16 causes the variation condition determining circuit 51 and the MPU 16 to operate.
While the count values are respectively fetched from the major role first counter of MPU16 and the fluctuation determining condition is not satisfied, or in the initial state after the power is turned on, the MPU 16 counts the count values from the probability control circuit 50 and the major role second counter respectively. Take in.

Next, the specific counter and the special counter select all of the special identification information stopped and displayed on the special display 2, that is, any one of combinations of 15 cubes (= 3375). Is to select any of the special identification information different from the special right occurrence information.

Therefore, the MPU 16 sets the specific counter to "1 ...
While looping in the range of "15", each time the count value of the major character first counter makes one cycle, the count value is incremented by "1".

Therefore, the combination of the special right occurrence information is “15
Type ”is formed, and in the present embodiment, the count value fetched from the specific counter directly corresponds to the type of the special right occurrence information.

Further, the special counter is looped in the range of "0 to 3359" while being incremented by "1" by the MPU 16 every time the count value of the major role first counter is cycled once, and the total count value is “3360 types” will be formed.

On the other hand, all combinations of three-digit special identification information "1,1,1,1,1,2,1,1,3 to 15,15,13,15,15,1
The total of "4, 15, 15, 15" is "3375 types", and all combinations of special identification information "3375 types" and all combinations of special right occurrence information "1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2 ~ 14,14,14, 15,15,
The difference from the total of "15 types" of "15" indicates all combinations "3360 types" of so-called "outlier" special identification information, and these combinations correspond to the respective count values of the special counter.

[0140] Note that all combinations "3360 types" of "offset" special identification information have the rightmost special identification information as the least significant digit and the leftmost special identification information as the most significant digit, and are sequentially "1,1". , 2, 1,1,3, 1,1,4 to 15,15,12, 15,15,13, 15,15,1
4 ”are arranged in ascending order, and these are made to correspond one-to-one in ascending or descending order of the count values“ 0 to 3359 ”of the special counter.

A correspondence table of the count values of these special counters and all combinations of the special identification information of "off", a correspondence table of the count value of the specific counter and the special right occurrence information, and the ordinary right occurrence information are shown. The normal identification information included and the count value of the variable condition counter are stored in advance in the character generator ROM (see FIG. 1 to CG.
ROM) 55.

The CG.ROM 55 further stores character data of various kinds of information such as the above-mentioned special identification information, comparative identification information, special right exercise information and demonstration display. It is connected to the.

Since the special display circuit 5 displays the above-mentioned various information in the upper and lower areas 7 and 8 in response to the command (control signal) input from the MPU 16 through the interface circuit 18,
The display control is performed based on each data stored in the CG.ROM 55, and at that time, the calculation values and various data required for displaying on each of the display devices 2, 48, 52 are temporarily stored in the image RAM 56.

More specifically, the contents stored in the CG.ROM 55 in the present embodiment are, for example, important character data used when a "special right" is generated, moving image data for characters of comparative identification information, and material data for stop display of special right exercise information. ,
For each stop display material data of general information, comparative identification information, ordinary identification information and special identification information, variable display material data of ordinary identification information and special identification information, so-called reach state and variation display of special identification information Control procedure, material data for stop display of special identification information in this reach state,
Still image material data for displaying the number of exercises, still image material data for various demonstrations, still image material data for the same movie material data "Special rights" Still image material data for the number of big prize winning balls, various messages (from normal pachinko game state "Special right" transition status display indication "Special right" occurrence display, ordinary rights occurrence information stop display under the first probability probability display decision display,
From the exercise of "special rights" to normal pachinko game state transition display, error display, etc.) still image material data, same moving image material data, code data corresponding to color tone, moving image material data of comparative identification information and the same still image There is material data, etc., and these are stored at each display timing according to the progress of the game.

The important character data is used when the "special right" occurs, and is composed of specific state still image material data and important still image material data.

[0146] The special state still image material data is "special right".
The main purpose is to display the fact of occurrence, and the important role still image material data is to play a game while the "special right" is occurring.

The moving image material data for characters of the comparative identification information forms a moving image in which playing cards are turned upside down (hereinafter, inverted), and the state in which the back surface faces the player side is changed to the front side.
The numerical value displayed on the playing cards or the pattern can be visually recognized together with the special right occurrence information stopped and displayed on the special display 2 on the comparative display 52 in the lower area 8 as the comparative identification information until the visually recognizable state. Is displayed (see FIGS. 2 and 3).

This inverted moving image is displayed only on the comparison display unit 52, but is not limited to this, and as shown in FIG. 4 to FIG. , May be displayed visually.

In this embodiment, the example in which the numerical value corresponding to the count value “1 to 13” of the variable condition counter is stopped and displayed on the comparative display 52 as the character of the comparative identification information has been described. It is not limited.

For example, the count value of the variable condition counter corresponds to the design of the number cards and picture cards on the playing card surface ("11" ...
"J" (jack), "12" to "Q" (queen), "13" to "K" (king)} may be configured (see FIGS. 4 to 6).

When comparing the design of the comparative identification information displayed in the comparison display unit 52 in the form of playing cards and the special right occurrence information, the size relationship between the two must be clearly recognized by the player. For that purpose, it is desirable to stop and display the design of the comparative identification information and the count value “1 to 13” of the variable condition counter corresponding to the comparative identification information at the same time.

When displaying such comparative identification information, M
When the PU 16 determines whether the fluctuation determination condition is satisfied, the PU 16 compares the special right occurrence information with the comparison identification information as described above, based on the occurrence of the “special right”, and the already-acquired fluctuation condition counter. And the count value of the specific counter are fetched and compared.

Then, the count value of the variable condition counter is
If it is larger than the count value of the specific counter, MPU16
Determines that the fluctuation determination condition is not satisfied, but the count value of the fetched fluctuation condition counter is less than or equal to the count value of the specific counter, the MPU16
Determines that the variation determination condition is satisfied.

The above-mentioned determination result is visually displayed on the special display device 2 via the special display circuit 5. However, in the present embodiment, the difference between the case where the variation determination condition is satisfied and the case where the variation determination condition is not satisfied is different. The special display circuit 5 makes the colors assigned to the background of various kinds of information different from each other so that they can be recognized through the visual sense of the player.

Whether or not the fluctuation determining condition is satisfied is as follows.
Since it is determined according to the magnitude relationship between the count value of the variable condition counter and the count value of the specific counter, in other words, the type of the comparative identification information and the special right occurrence information, the probability that the change determination condition is satisfied (hereinafter, the change determination probability It can be seen that the probability value of) is not constant.

That is, the value of the fluctuation determination probability decreases as the value of the special right occurrence information stopped and displayed on the special display 2 decreases, and increases as the value of the special right occurrence information increases. The minimum value is "1/14" when the "special right" occurs in the special right occurrence information "1", and "2/14" in the case of the special right occurrence information "2". Every time the occurrence information increases by "1", the value of the fluctuation decision probability becomes "1/1".
Increase by 4 ”units.

However, in the present embodiment, the upper limit of the value of the fluctuation determination probability is set to "14/14", and the "special right" is the stop display of one of the special right occurrence information "14" and "15". , The fluctuation decision conditions are satisfied unconditionally, that is, the fluctuation decision probabilities are both “14/14”.

By the way, all 15 types of special right occurrence information “1”
The average value of the fluctuation decision probabilities of ~ 15 is 56.7% (≒ {1/14 + 2/14 + 3/14 + 4/14 + ~ + 13/14 + 14/14 +
14/14} ÷ 15 = {119/14} ÷ 15 = 119/210).

Further, the special identification information is formed of the design of Trump corresponding to the count value instead of the number corresponding to the count value of the specific counter, and the design of the comparison identification information and the special right occurrence information are formed. The design and the special display 2 may be displayed in the upper and lower areas 7 and 8 (not shown).

In that case, the moving image material data for variable display of the special identification information and the material data for stop display are stored in the CG.ROM 55 in association with the count value of the specific counter,
The material data has the following configuration in the present embodiment.

First, the count value of the specific counter is "1" to "1".
When it is 0, it is made to correspond to the numerical value, and when it is 11 to 13, it is the same as in the embodiment of the comparative identification information described above.
In addition to "Q" and "K", "14" corresponds to "A" (ace), and "15" corresponds to "JOKER" (joker).

Of course, there is no problem even if "14" corresponds to "JOKER" (joker) and "15" corresponds to "A" (ace).

Subsequently, CG.ROM in the present embodiment
The contents stored in 55 will be described. The moving image material data for the variable display of the special identification information is data for displaying the special identification information in a variable manner with the start of the special game, and the still image material data of the special identification information stops any of the identification information. Used when displaying.

In addition, the stop display material data of the special identification information in the reach state is the special identification information which has been stopped and displayed in any two columns of the special display 2 during the special game, in the present embodiment, the left and right columns. When the so-called "reach state" is formed, the information is displayed to that effect.

For the notification, the special display circuit 5 is CG.
The stop display material data of the special identification information for the reach state is read out from the ROM 55, and the special identification information formed by this data is exchanged with the special identification information of any column of the special display unit 2, or during the reach state. Special display 2
The color or luminance of any of the columns is periodically changed at a predetermined timing.

The display mode of such a reach state will be described below.
By the blink display, the special display circuit 5 informs the player of the reach state by the blink display.

Further, the special display circuit 5 is a blinking display and at the same time, a special symbol changing display provided on the game board 4 (see FIG. 1).
(See FIG. 2) 28 is lit or blinked via the display drive circuit 27 to notify the player of the reach state by light.

The special symbol changing display 28 indicates that it is in the special game state. When the reach state is formed during the special game and when it is not formed, the light emission modes are different from each other. By doing so, different types of situations are displayed.

It should be noted that during the formation of the reach state, a sound effect is generated from the speaker 26 by the electronic sound generating circuit 30 shown in FIG. 1 so that the fact that the reach state is formed can be made clearer through the player's hearing and sight. Can be displayed on the screen.

Of the data stored in the CG.ROM 55, still image material data for displaying the number of times of exercise, still image material data for various demonstrations, and moving image material data “special right”.
Still image material data for the number of large winning prize balls at the time of occurrence of
Since the still image material data for various messages, the same moving image material data, the code data corresponding to the color tone, the moving image material data for the comparative identification information, etc. are the same as those in the well-known technique, the description thereof will be omitted.

Based on the control signal generated from the MPU 16, the above-mentioned various information is displayed in the upper and lower areas 7, 8 by the special display circuit 5.
On the other hand, while appropriately controlling the display, the MPU 16 generates a control signal for operating each part of the pachinko machine 3 including the special display circuit 5 based on the execution of the program stored in the ROM 57.

The MPU 16, when executing the program in the ROM 57, stores the operation value of each instruction and various data in the RAM.
Temporarily stored in 58.

In the ROM 57, in addition to the programs described above,
Correspondence table of count value of special counter and all combinations of special identification information of "off", correspondence table of count value of specific counter and special right occurrence information, and ordinary identification including ordinary right occurrence information Various data necessary for executing the above-mentioned program are stored, including a correspondence table of information and the count value of the variable condition counter.

Further, not only the power supply to the MPU 16 but also the power required by each part of the pachinko machine 3 is supplied by the power supply circuit 59, and when the power supply circuit 59 is activated, the power supply reset circuit 60 passes the reset circuit 61 through the reset circuit 61 to the MPU 16 and the pachinko machine. A reset signal is supplied to all three.

A clock circuit 62 is connected to the MPU 16, and after the frequency is divided to a desired specification by the frequency dividing circuit 63, this frequency-divided pulse signal is supplied to the electronic sound generating circuit 30 through the MPU 16 for producing a sound effect. To be done.

On the other hand, the electronic sound generating circuit 30 produces different sound effects based on the frequency-divided pulse signal in each situation that fluctuates as the game progresses, for example, "special right" is generated and "normal right" is generated. Informs the player of changes in the situation.

When the MPU 16 starts the special game and simultaneously generates the "normal right", the electronic sound generating circuit 30 causes the special game to start while the special game sound effect is being generated. Generates different types of sound effects for the normal game, but in order to prevent mixing of multiple types of sound effects, the present embodiment is configured to omit the generation of the special game or normal game sound effects. ing.

When the ordinary right generation condition is satisfied during the game, the MPU 16 causes the ordinary electric accessory 64 shown in FIGS. 1 to 3.
To generate a "normal right".

The ordinary electric accessory 64 comprises an ordinary electric accessory solenoid 65 and a solenoid drive circuit 66 shown in FIG. 1. The ordinary electric accessory solenoid 65 is a solenoid drive circuit.
It is excited while the operation signal is input from 66, and is demagnetized when this operation signal is not input.

More specifically, when the ordinary right generation condition is satisfied, the MPU 16 outputs a signal corresponding to that condition for a predetermined time.
For example, after inputting to the solenoid drive circuit 66 for 5 seconds, the input of that signal is stopped.

As a result, the solenoid drive circuit 66 excites the ordinary electric accessory solenoid 65 for a predetermined time, and accordingly, the ordinary electric accessory 64 normally opens the inflow port (not shown) closed for a predetermined time. Open.

Therefore, the ordinary electric accessory 64 that does not take in the launch ball at normal times shifts to a state where the launch ball can be taken in only for a predetermined time, so that the "ordinary right" is generated, and the ordinary electric device in this take-in state The "normal right" can be exercised by causing the accessory 64 to take the launch ball into the ordinary electric accessory 64.

When the ordinary electric accessory solenoid 65 is demagnetized after a lapse of a predetermined time from the generation of the "ordinary right", the ordinary electric accessory 64 is returned to a state in which the shooting ball cannot be taken. The ordinary electric accessory 64 is disposed between the right generation device 19 and the out hole 67 as shown in FIGS.

An upper plate 68 is provided at a lower position of the game board 4, a lower plate 69 is provided at a lower position of the upper plate 68, and a lower end position of the lower plate 69 in FIGS. A handle device 70 for adjusting the hitting force of the launch ball is provided.

Next, the operation of the pachinko machine having the above structure will be described below. In the present embodiment, an example will be described in which, immediately after the stop display of the special right occurrence information, before the exercise of the “special right”, whether or not the variation determination condition is satisfied is displayed in the upper and lower areas 7 and 8. To do.

First, when a special game is started as the game progresses and the reach state is formed when the special display circuit 5 shifts the special identification information from the variable display state to the stop display by the special display 2, the game is formed. Have a sense of anticipation for the emergence of “special rights”.

At this point, it is not displayed whether or not the fluctuation determining condition is satisfied, so that the player not only has an expectation about the occurrence of the "special right" but also an expectation that the fluctuation determining condition is satisfied. You can hold me.

Then, the three-digit special identification information is stopped and displayed on the special display device 2, and if these are not special right occurrence information, a new special game is started after a predetermined time has passed, while the special right occurrence information is changed. In the case of suspension of display, it is decided that the "special right" will be issued.

From this point on, the MPU 16 initializes a predetermined area of the RAM 58 and prepares for writing the special right exercise information that changes with the exercise of the "special right", and confirms that the variation determination condition is satisfied. Immediately inputting to the special display circuit 5, the count value is fetched from the variable condition counter of the variable condition determining circuit 51.

The fetched count value is read into the special display circuit 5 through the interface circuit 18, and the comparative identification information having the same numerical value as the count value is stopped and displayed on the comparison display 52 by the special display circuit 5. Depending on the numerical value of the comparative identification information stopped and displayed and the numerical value of the special right occurrence information stopped and displayed on the special display device 2, it is determined whether or not the variation determination condition is satisfied as described above ( 2 to 6).

As a result, the variation condition counter as the variation determining unit allows the player to determine the value of the right occurrence probability after determining the occurrence of the "special right" based on the value of the variation determination probability corresponding to the type of the variation determination condition. Since the change is determined, whether the value of the probability of occurrence of the "special right" or the value of the probability of occurrence of the "ordinary right" changes is recognized before the determination of the occurrence of the "special right", for example, at the stage of reach display. It is difficult to predict whether or not the value of the right occurrence probability fluctuates because multiple fluctuation determination probability values are set and the fluctuation determination condition is set according to the probability value. To

Therefore, as in the case of the conventional model, when the reach display is formed despite the possibility of the occurrence of the “special right”, the next second ordinary probability or the ordinary second probability under the second special probability is generated. It is possible to prevent the player's willingness to play or to reduce the interest of the player at the stage of reach display due to the prediction of the execution of the game or the special game, and the advantageous state in the next game and the "special right". Both of the occurrence of “” and the occurrence of “” are made to be held by the player during the reach display, and the motivation for the game is improved.

When the occurrence of the "special right" is determined by the stop display of the special right occurrence information, the "special right" is exercised as in the conventional case, and after the end, the new ordinary game or the special game has the second ordinary probability. Or it starts under the second special probability.

In the present embodiment, a case has been described in which, immediately after the stop display of the special right occurrence information, before the exercise of the "special right", it is displayed whether or not the variation determination condition is satisfied. It is not limited and may be displayed during or after the exercise of the "special right".

[0195] When displaying whether or not the variation determination condition is satisfied during the exercise of the "special right", the so-called "special right" is displayed.
When you update the, you can allocate a reset time until the next "special right" starts, or with the progress of exercising the "special right", in a form that reminds you of the progress of the story like a well-known model, the change decision It may be possible to gradually display whether or not the condition is satisfied.
