Description

  The present invention relates to a gaming machine, in particular, a first specific gaming state that is a gaming state in which a player can acquire a large amount of gaming media that is a conventional big hit, and a small amount of gaming compared to the first specific gaming state. The present invention relates to a game information display device for displaying game information in a gaming machine in which a second specific game state in which a player can acquire a medium is generated.

  Conventionally, as a game information display device for displaying game information in a gaming machine, a probability variation state in which the probability that the jackpot will occur after the jackpot has occurred in a pachinko machine that is a corresponding gaming machine occurs, When a big hit repeatedly occurs in the probability variation state, there is a display that displays the number of big hits generated until the end of the big hit without the probability variation state as the number of consecutive hits (for example, see Patent Document 1).

  In addition, when a pachinko machine that is a corresponding gaming machine has a big hit, the short-time state or the probability variation state in which the possibility of a big win is increased, for example, by making it easy to win a variable winning opening, etc. When a big hit is repeatedly generated in a short-time state or a probability fluctuation state when the probability of occurrence of the big hit is high In some cases, the number of jackpots that occurred before returning to the gaming state is displayed as the number of consecutive games (see, for example, Patent Document 2).

  On the other hand, in recent years, a first specific game state in which a player can acquire a large amount of game media, for example, one round in which the open / close plate of the variable winning ball apparatus is opened is repeated up to 15 rounds. A big hit state occurs, and after the big hit state occurs, a second gaming state in which the first specific gaming state that is the big hit state is highly likely to occur, for example, a probability variation state or a short time state occurs. Unlike conventional gaming machines, the game state in which the open / close plate of the variable winning ball apparatus at the conventional jackpot is opened for only two rounds for a very short time, for example, 0.5 seconds, that is, the first specific state that is the aforementioned jackpot state. After the occurrence of the second specific gaming state, which is a gaming state in which the player can acquire a small amount of game media compared to the gaming state, the probability variation state or time-shortening state that is the second gaming state described above. There is added a function of generating, for the player, by seem random suddenly fluctuations state and the time-shortening occurs, the gaming machine with improved interest have been put to practical use.

  Examples of the present invention will be described below.

  Embodiment 1 of the present invention corresponding to claim 1, claim 3 and claim 4 will be described with reference to the drawings. First, FIG. 1 is a front view showing a game island in embodiment 1 of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 1, the game island of the first embodiment has a plurality of pachinko machines 2 as game machines of the present invention on its side surface and a card unit 3 for enabling a game with a prepaid card in the pachinko machine 2. Are arranged in parallel, and each of the pachinko machines 2 arranged in parallel has a one-to-one correspondence with the calling lamp device 200 that is the game information display device of the present invention. It is connected to the pachinko machine 2 via a relay terminal described later.

  First, the pachinko machine 2 that is the gaming machine used in the present embodiment will be described below. The pachinko machine 2 connected to the calling lamp device 200 generates a small hit, which will be described later, which is the second specific gaming state described above. A type A gaming machine and a normal pachinko machine that does not generate the small hits can be connected. In this embodiment, the type A pachinko machine 2 is used as the pachinko machine 2, and these types The pachinko machine 2 of A is almost the same as the conventional pachinko machine in which a probability change state (probability change) and a short-time state occur after the big hit, except that a small hit, which will be described later, occurs and becomes a probability fluctuation state. The following description will be focused on the small hits, which will be described later, which will be the second specific gaming state that is the feature.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the pachinko machine 2 used in the present embodiment has a glass door frame 102 formed in a frame shape, and a hitting ball supply tray 103 is provided on the lower surface of the glass door frame 102. An operation unit 114 is provided at a predetermined position on the upper surface of the hitting ball supply tray 103, and an excess ball receiving tray 104 for storing premium balls overflowing from the hitting ball supply tray 103 and a hit ball are fired at the lower portion of the hitting ball supply tray 103. A hitting ball operating handle (hereinafter referred to as an operating knob) 105 is provided.

  Further, on the upper surface of the operation unit 114, a frequency display unit (not shown) on which the frequency read from the prepaid card in the card unit 3 is displayed, and the number of balls in the start of the game or the hitting ball supply tray 103 is reduced. When the number of pachinko balls is lent or not, a predetermined number of pachinko balls are lent out by the pachinko machine 2 when the frequency is present in the frequency display section, and a rental button switch (not shown) at the end of the game A return button switch (not shown) for causing the card unit 3 to return the prepaid card being received, and these parts are mounted on an operation board (not shown) provided in the operation unit 114. Yes.

  As shown in FIG. 1, a game board 106 is detachably attached to the rear of the glass door frame 102. A game area 107 is provided in front of the game board 106. In the vicinity of the center of the game area 107, a special variable display portion 109 in which a plurality of types of identification information called “special symbols” are variably displayed, and a plurality of types of identification information called “ordinary symbols” are variably displayed. A variable display unit 110 is provided. Further, the game board 106 includes a variable start winning ball device 113 composed of a plurality of winning ports 124, a passing gate 111, a starting winning port 114 and a movable piece 115, and a variable winning ball device including an opening / closing plate 120 opened in a big hit state. 116 is provided, and at the bottom of the game area 107, an out port 126 for collecting the hit balls that have not won is formed.

  A ball hit by a hammer (not shown) that is swung by the operation of the hitting operation knob 105 enters the game area 107 through the hitting rail, and then flows down the game area 107. At this time, the pachinko balls whose launch momentum is too weak to reach the game area 107 are circulated to the surplus ball receiving tray 104 through a circulation path (not shown).

  In addition, when the ball that is driven into the game area 107 passes through the passing gate 111, the normal symbol that is stopped and displayed on the normal variable display unit 110 starts to variably start.

  When the display result after the variable display operation of the normal variable display unit 110 is a predetermined display result (for example, 7), the movable piece 115 provided in the variable start winning ball device 113 is used for the player. The game is opened for a predetermined time (0.5 seconds in this embodiment) from the disadvantageous closed state, which is advantageous to the player.

  In addition, when a pachinko ball wins at the start winning opening 114, a lottery is performed inside the pachinko machine 2, and variable display (variable display) of all special symbols by a display effect in a mode according to the lottery result is performed in the special variable display unit 109. ) Is started, and the lighting effect of the aspect corresponding to the lottery result is started in the game effect lamp provided on the front surface of the pachinko machine 2. In other words, in the pachinko machine 2 of the present embodiment, variable display (variable display) of all special symbols and lighting effect of the game effect lamp are performed by the display effect of the aspect according to the lottery result which is the effect control according to the lottery result. Is done.

  In the case where the lottery result is a lottery result that wins a big win, the left, middle, and right specials are displayed so that the stop display result has a predetermined display mode (for example, 777 or 444). The variable display is stopped so that the symbol stops. And when it becomes these specific display modes (for example, 777 and 444), that is, when the lottery result is a big win, the pachinko ball which is a large amount of game media for playing the game in the pachinko machine 2 A first specific gaming state (a big hit state), which is a gaming state in which the player can acquire the game, occurs. When the big hit state occurs in this way, the opening / closing plate 120 provided in the variable winning ball apparatus 116 is opened, and a first state advantageous to the player is obtained. This first state ends when a predetermined period (for example, 30 seconds) or a predetermined number of hit balls (for example, 10) wins, whichever comes first, and then the opening / closing plate 120 is closed. Is in a second state that is disadvantageous for a closed player. Thereafter, repeated continuation control is performed to control from the second state to the first state. The upper limit number of the repeated continuation control is set to 15 times, for example.

  Further, in the lottery performed in response to winning at the start winning port 114 that satisfies the predetermined lottery conditions in the present invention, together with the lottery that generates only the first specific gaming state (big hit state), Following the first specific gaming state (hit state), the winning probability in the lottery in the normal gaming state as the first gaming state, which is a gaming state that is unlikely to become the first specific gaming state (hit state) A lottery for generating a probability variation state in which the second gaming state is likely to occur in the first specific gaming state (big hit state) compared to the normal gaming state (first gaming state) due to the increase is performed. In the case where the lottery result is a lottery result that is won in a lottery that generates a probability variation state, a combination of jackpot symbols whose stop display result matches a predetermined probability variation symbol (a For example, 777 and 333), the effect control is performed such that the variable display is stopped so that the left, middle, and right special symbols stop, and after the effect control, the game state is in accordance with the lottery result. The game state control for making a big hit, specifically, a “hit state” by the repeated continuation control, and after the completion of the “hit state”, until the next big hit occurs, Is a probability variation state in which the probability becomes higher than the normal probability state. During the probability variation state, in addition to the control to increase the winning probability of the big hit, as will be described later, one variable display time of the normal variable display unit 110 is shortened compared to that in the normal gaming state until the next big hit occurrence. In addition to the control, it also becomes a short time state in which the opening control of the movable piece 115, the opening time extension control, and the like are performed. To do. The jackpots in these probability variation symbols are referred to as “probable variation jackpots” in distinction from “normal jackpots” other than the probability variation symbols (for example, 444 and 888), and will be described later in these jackpot states and probability variation states. Big hit signal 1 and big hit signal 2 are output to the outside.

  In the probability variation state, the probability variation state is notified by changing the lighting mode of the game effect lamp or the like provided on the front surface of the pachinko machine 2 to a mode corresponding to the probability variation state, and In the period until the big hit occurs, the frequency at which the movable piece 115 provided in the variable start winning ball apparatus 113 is in an open state advantageous to the player is from the start of variable display of the normal symbol of the variable display apparatus 110. The time until the stop display is shortened from the normal gaming state (for example, shortened from 30 seconds to 3 seconds), and the period during which the movable piece 115 is opened is extended from the normal gaming state ( For example, when a state in which the variable display on the special variable display unit 109 is started is easy to start a prize is held by being in a short state when 0.5 seconds is extended to 3 seconds). In, that the winning balls with the above start dynamic winning are paid out, in a probability change state, ball has the player is prevented from greatly reduced.

  And if the big hit that occurred in the probability fluctuation state is again “probability change big hit” by the probability fluctuation pattern, since it becomes the probability fluctuation state again after the end of the big hit state, “probability change big hit” continues. As a result, the big hit state resort continues.

  In addition, when the jackpot generated in the probability variation state is a “normal jackpot” other than the probability variation symbol, the probability variation state ends, and after the jackpot state ends, the probability variation state becomes In addition, until the condition that either the variable display unit 109 performs the variable display operation a predetermined number of times (for example, 100 times) or the big hit state occurs is provided at the start winning opening 114. A book that is highly likely to generate a big hit (first specific game state) compared to the normal game state (first game state) by improving the frequency with which the movable piece 115 is in an open state advantageous to the player. A short time state occurs in the second gaming state in the invention.

  The improvement in the frequency at which the movable piece 115 that is advantageous to the player in the short-time state is in the open state is almost the same as the improvement in the opening frequency of the movable piece 115 during the probability variation. The time from the display to the stop display is shortened from the normal gaming state (for example, shortened from 30 seconds to 3 seconds), and the period during which the movable piece 115 is opened is longer than the normal gaming state. By extending (for example, 0.5 seconds to 3 seconds), it is possible to maintain a state where the variable display on the special variable display unit 109 is easily started and to receive a prize accompanying the start winning. By paying out the ball, the player's possession ball is not greatly reduced during the short time period.

  Furthermore, in the pachinko machine 2 according to the present embodiment, in addition to the “normal big hit” and “probability big hit”, that is, the lottery for generating the first specific gaming state, regardless of the gaming state of the gaming machine, In each of the gaming states in which a lottery other than the normal gaming state, the probability variation state, and the short-time state, the player receives a small amount of pachinko balls compared to the big hit (first specific gaming state). The lottery in which the aforementioned probability variation state (second gaming state) is generated following the small hit that becomes the second specific gaming state in the present invention, which is an acquirable gaming state, and the lottery result wins the lottery If it is a result, the variable display is stopped so that the left, middle, and right special symbols are stopped so that the stop display result becomes a predetermined chance display mode (for example, 737 or 373). . And when it becomes the display mode of these chances, that is, when the lottery result wins the small hit, the second specific gaming state (small hit state) occurs. When the small hit state occurs in this way, the opening / closing plate 120 provided in the variable winning ball apparatus 116 is opened only twice (round) for a very short time, for example, 0.5 seconds. In other words, in the small hit state where the opening for 0.5 seconds is performed only twice, the variable winning ball device 116 is hardly won, so the small hit state is compared with the big win (first specific game state). As a result, the player can acquire a small amount of pachinko balls.

  Then, after the opening for only 0.5 seconds is performed only twice, after performing a predetermined effect display for notifying the player that the special variable display unit 109 shifts to the probability variation state, the probability variation state Control to shift to is performed. That is, in the pachinko machine 2 of the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 8, a small hit state occurs regardless of whether the gaming state is a normal gaming state, a short-time state, or a probability variation state. However, the probability variation state is given after the end of all “small hit states”, and when the “small hit state” occurs in the normal gaming state, the player suddenly The game is given such that the probability variation state seems to have occurred.

  Thus, in other words, the pachinko machine 2 used in the present embodiment is a first identification state in which the player can acquire a large amount of game media (pachinko balls) for playing a game in the pachinko machine 2. A first gaming state (normal gaming state), which is a gaming state in which there is a low possibility of occurrence of a gaming state (“normal big hit”, “probability big hit”), and the first specific game compared to the first gaming state A second gaming state (probability variation state, short-time state) that is likely to cause a state, and in accordance with the establishment of a lottery condition predetermined in each gaming state (winning to the start winning opening 114) A first specific gaming state (“normal big hit”, “probability big hit”) is generated, or the second is a gaming state in which the player can acquire a small amount of game media compared to the first specific gaming state. Following the specific gaming state (small hits) 2. At least a lottery to generate a gaming state (probability variation state), and effect control (variable display (variable display) of all special symbols of the special variable display unit 109 and lighting effect of the game effect lamp) according to the lottery result) And the gaming state (“normal big hit”, “probability big hit”, “small hit”, “probability variation state”, “short time state”, “normal gaming state”) according to the lottery result after the effect control.

Be controlled.

  Here, in the calling lamp device 200 of this embodiment, when the input of the big hit signal 1 and the big hit signal 2 is detected, whether the gaming state generated in the corresponding gaming machine is a big hit or a small hit? A jackpot determination threshold time automatic setting process for setting a jackpot determination threshold time used in a jackpot determination timer, which will be described later, which is a threshold time in the present invention for determining the threshold will be described with reference to FIG.

  When it is desired to execute the big hit determination threshold time automatic setting process and set the big hit determination threshold time, a setting menu button (not shown) provided on the remote control is provided with the remote control (not shown) facing the reception window 257 described above. Is input, the setting menu screen is displayed on the display screen 261 by the control microcomputer 279.

  On this setting menu screen, various setting menu items are displayed so as to be selectable. From the menu, a “threshold time setting” menu is selected and “OK” is input.

  Based on the selection of the “threshold time setting” menu, the control microcomputer 279 performs the big hit determination threshold time automatic setting process shown in FIG. 11, and first indicates that the display screen 261 is waiting for the input of the big hit signal 1. After the message is displayed (St1), the process shifts to the input waiting state for the jackpot signal 1 (St2).

  At this stage, the pachinko machine 2 corresponding to the calling lamp device 200 generates a small hit and outputs the big hit signal 1 to the calling lamp device 200.

  The output of the big hit signal 1 due to the small hit is detected at St2 and proceeds to St3 to start timing, and after the start of timing by the input of the big hit signal 1 is displayed on the display screen 261 , The process proceeds to St4, and shifts to the end waiting state of the input of the jackpot signal 1.

  Then, in the corresponding pachinko machine 2, when the small hit ends and the input of the big hit signal 1 to the calling lamp device 200 ends, the end of the input of the big hit signal 1 is detected at St4 and proceeds to St5, and then to St3. In addition to ending the time measurement started in this manner, the display screen 261 displays the number of seconds obtained by adding 2 seconds, which is the predetermined number of seconds, to the timed time, and then proceeds to St6, where “OK (OK)” from the remote controller is displayed. Transition to waiting for reception. In this embodiment, the number of seconds to be added to the timekeeping time is 2 seconds. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the number of seconds to be added is appropriately set so that a reliable determination is performed. You can choose to.

  If there is no problem in the display of the number of seconds on the display screen 261, that is, if it is the number of seconds due to the fact that a small hit has occurred and the big hit signal 1 has been detected, (OK) ”is input, but if the corresponding pachinko machine 2 accidentally generates a big hit and is the number of seconds due to the detection of the big hit big hit signal 1,“ No (NG) ” Enter.

  Based on the input of “OK (OK)” on the remote controller, “Yes” is determined in St6, the process proceeds to St7, and the number of seconds displayed in St5 is stored (updated) in the EEPROM 276 to thereby determine the big hit determination threshold time. On the other hand, if “impossible (NG)” is input on the remote controller, the process returns to St1 again, and the process of St1 to St6 described above is performed to reset the jackpot determination threshold time again. be able to.

  In other words, in the big hit determination threshold time automatic setting process of the present embodiment performed by the control microcomputer 279, it is shorter than the execution time of the big hit state (first specific gaming state) in the corresponding pachinko machine 2, and the small hit state (second A jackpot determination threshold time that is a threshold time longer than the execution time of the specific gaming state) is set, and the threshold time setting means in the present invention is formed by the control microcomputer 279 that performs the jackpot determination threshold time automatic setting process. Yes.

  Further, in the calling lamp device 200 of this embodiment, as described above, when the automatic setting of the connected model is set in the dip switch 277, the jackpot determination threshold time is set. In the setting menu screen, “connected model automatic setting” can be selected (active), and the “connected model automatic setting” is selected by the remote controller, so that the connected microcomputer automatic setting process shown in FIG. Is done.

  In this connection model automatic setting process, as shown in FIG. 12, first, the control microcomputer 279 displays a message indicating that the jackpot signal 1 is waiting for input on the display screen 261 (Sk1), and then the jackpot signal 1 is displayed. The process shifts to an input standby state (Sk2).

  At this stage, in the pachinko machine 2 to which the calling lamp device 200 corresponds, if the connected pachinko machine 2 is a type A where a small hit occurs, a small hit is generated and the big hit signal 1 is sent to the calling lamp device 200. If it is type N that does not generate a small hit, a big hit is generated and a big hit signal 1 is output to the calling lamp device 200.

  The output of the big hit signal 1 due to the small hit or big hit is detected at Sk2 and proceeds to Sk3 to start timing, and the timing is started by the input of the big hit signal 1 and is displayed on the display screen 261. Thereafter, the process proceeds to Sk4, and shifts to an end waiting state for the input of the jackpot signal 1.

  Then, in the corresponding pachinko machine 2, when the small hit or big hit ends and the input of the big hit signal 1 to the calling lamp device 200 ends, the end of the input of the big hit signal 1 is detected at Sk4 and proceeds to Sk5. The time measurement started in Sk3 is ended and the process proceeds to Sk6, where it is determined whether or not the timed time is longer than the jackpot determination threshold time set by the threshold setting means in the present invention.

  If the determination is longer than the jackpot determination threshold time, the process proceeds to Sk7, where the connected pachinko machine 2 is determined to be type N, while the determination is longer than the jackpot determination threshold time. Advances to Sk8 and determines that the type of the connected pachinko machine 2 is type A.

  Then, the process proceeds to Sk9, and the type of the model determined in Sk7 or Sk8 is displayed on the display screen 261. Then, the process proceeds to Sk10, and the process shifts to reception of “decision (OK)” from the remote controller.

  If there is no mistake in the model displayed on the display screen 261, “OK” is input with the remote controller. On the other hand, if there is a mistake in the displayed model, for example, the wrong type A In the pachinko machine 2, when a big hit is generated instead of a small hit and the big hit signal 1 is detected, and “type N” is displayed as the model, “impossible (NG)” is input.

  Based on the input of “OK” on the remote controller, “Yes” is determined in Sk11 and the process proceeds to Sk12. The type of the model determined and displayed in Sk7 or Sk8 is stored in EEPROM 276. In the case where the connected model is set with, on the other hand, when “impossible (NG)” is input on the remote controller, the process returns to Sk1 again, and the above-described processes of Sk1 to Sk11 are performed, so that the connected model is set again. You can fix it.

  Next, game information update processing in which the game information table, the jackpot A history table, and the jackpot B history table updated by the control microcomputer 279 will be described based on the flowchart shown in FIG. The microcomputer 279 generates gaming state data (see FIG. 9) based on the jackpot signal 1, the jackpot signal 2, and the short time signal, and the gaming state data is the previous gaming state data registered in the gaming information table. In comparison, it is determined whether there is a change in the game state data (S1).

  In this determination, if there is no change in the game state data, the process returns to S1, and if the game state data is changed, the process proceeds to S2. That is, when there is a change in the detection state of the jackpot signal 1, the jackpot signal 2, and the short time signal, the change is detected in S1 and the process proceeds to S2.

  In S2, as described above, it is determined whether or not the type N is set as the model type of the connected pachinko machine 2 that is set by being stored in the EEPROM 276.

  At this stage, when the type N is set, the connected pachinko machine 2 does not generate the above-mentioned small hits, so addition to the number of big hits and the number of extended games accompanying the occurrence of the small hits In addition, when the processing after S3 shown in FIG. 13 that does not have processing such as resetting the number of start times and the number of consecutive resorts is performed, when type N is not set, that is, when type A is set, Since the above-mentioned small hits occur, the processing after Sb1 shown in FIG. 14 is executed, which includes processing such as addition to the number of big hits and consecutive resorts associated with the generated small hits, and reset of the start number and consecutive resorts. To do.

  First, the processing after S3 performed when the type N is set will be described. It is determined whether or not the new gaming state data generated in S1 is “000” which is the normal gaming state. To do.

  In the determination of S3, when the value matches “000”, a game state other than the normal game state, specifically, a state in which the normal game state is newly set from the big hit state “110” or the short-time state “001”. Therefore, all the light bulbs 267 are turned off and the game data is displayed on the display screen 261 in a display mode in which the character color is black and the background color is white. Display (S4).

  Then, the process proceeds to S4 +, and when these are newly in the normal gaming state, it is determined that the extended game period has ended, and the consecutive game count A stored in the extended game count A in the game information table at that time is continuously updated. After specifying the number of resorts, the process proceeds to S5, and it is determined whether or not the specified number of consecutive resorts is larger than the past highest consecutive resort number registered in the jackpot A history table.

  If it is determined that the past maximum number of consecutive homes has been exceeded, the process proceeds to S6, and today's big hit history data including the big hit history of the specified number of consecutive homes is updated and registered as the past highest consecutive home number data. Thereafter, the process proceeds to S6 +, and if the specified number of consecutive resorts is less than the maximum number of consecutive resorts, the process proceeds to S6 + without performing the process of S6, and is stored in the number of consecutive resorts A in the game information table. In addition to resetting the number of extended villas A, the reset number of extended villas A is updated and stored in the previous number of extended villas A when the reset number of extended villas A is 2 or more.

  Then, the process proceeds to S7, where the new game state “normal” and the game state data “000” are updated and stored in the game state and the previous game state data in the game information table, and then the process returns to S1.

  Further, in the determination of S3, if the generated new game state data does not match “000” that is the normal game state, the process proceeds to S10, and does it match “110” corresponding to the jackpot state? Determine.

  In the determination, if it matches “110”, it is determined that a new big hit state is reached, and the process proceeds to S11 to determine whether the big hit is the “first win” generated in the normal gaming state. In order to do this, it is determined whether or not the previous game state data registered in the game information table is “000”.

  In the determination of S11, if the previous gaming state data is “000”, it is determined that the big hit is the “first hit” that occurred in the normal gaming state, and the process proceeds to S12 to determine the occurrence of the big hit. , The current time output from the real time clock (RTC) 273 and the determined big hit state type “normal” are registered as the lowest big hit in the big hit A history table, and the registration After registering “1” as the number of consecutive resorts, the process proceeds to S23.

  In S23, 1 is added to the jackpot number A and consecutive game number A in the game information table, and the jackpot probability A is updated from the value of the jackpot number A and the total start number after the addition, and the jackpot start is started. The data of the number of times A is updated. Specifically, out of the jackpot start count A, the jackpot start 2 start count is the jackpot start 3, the jackpot start 3 start count is the jackpot start 4, and so on. Is shifted (shifted) one by one, the big hit start 1 is reset, and the reset start number of the big hit start 1 is updated and stored in the big hit start 2.

  And it progresses to S24, specifies the display mode according to the number of extended resorts A after addition update in S23 based on the data of the above-mentioned display mode setting table 2, and displays the display mode of the display screen 261. While updating to the jackpot display of the specified display mode, the lighting mode of the light bulb 267 is set to the jackpot lighting state. Specifically, since the number of consecutive resorts A is 1 for the first hit, the display frame color corresponding to the number of consecutive resorts is “None”, so the display frame is not displayed, and the display mode corresponding to the jackpot “Big hit” is displayed in the upper corner of the display screen 261, and further, a display in which the character color is white and the background color is red is displayed on the display screen 261, and the lighting mode of the light bulb 267 is high-speed. The player is informed that a big hit has occurred by turning on and off the cycle.

  And it progresses to S25 and a running signal output process is implemented. In this running signal output process, the running signals are output from the signal input / output units 278e and 278f to the adjacent calling lamp device 200. Thereby, in the adjacent call lamp device 200, a running lighting process of an interruption process described later is performed, all the bulbs 267 are turned on once, and the signal input / output unit on the opposite side to the input side of the running signal When the running signal is output to the next calling lamp device 200 by outputting the running signal to 278e and 278f, the calling lamp device 200 sequentially turns on all the light bulbs 267 once, In the calling lamp device 200, the running signal is output to the signal input / output units 278e and 278 of the calling lamp device 200 that is the output source by outputting the running signal to the same signal input / output units 278e and 278f as the running signal input side. The running signal corresponding to the output running signal The running signal is re-output until the number of inputs reaches the number set in the above-described dip switch 277, for example, three times set by default. Stop output.

  Then, after the running signal output process is performed, the process proceeds to S7 described above, and the new game state “big hit” and the game state data “110” are stored in the game state and the previous game state. After updating and storing the data, the process returns to S1.

  On the other hand, if it is determined in S11 that the previous game state data is not “000”, the process proceeds to S14 to determine whether or not the previous game state data matches “010”.

  If the previous game state data matches “010” in the determination, the process proceeds to S15, where it is determined that the generated jackpot is the “probable change middle jackpot” generated in the probability variation state, and the jackpot The occurrence is registered as the lowest jackpot in the jackpot A history table, together with the current time output from the real time clock (RTC) 273 and the determined jackpot status type “probably changing”. After registering a value obtained by adding 1 to the number of consecutive resorts registered in the jackpot A history table and adding 1 to the number of consecutive resorts registered in the jackpot A history table, the process proceeds to S23, and the processes of S23 to S25 described above are performed. After performing, return to S1 via S7 described above.

  If the previous game state data does not match “010” in the determination in S14, the process proceeds to S16, and it is determined that the generated big hit is the “short time medium big hit” that occurred in the short time state. The occurrence of the big hit is the lowest big hit in the big hit A history table, together with the current time output from the real-time clock (RTC) 273 and the determined big hit state type “short time medium”. And registering a value obtained by adding 1 to the number of consecutive resorts corresponding to the previous jackpot registered in the jackpot A history table, and then proceeding to S23. After performing the processes of S23 to S25, the process returns to S1 via S7 described above.

  Next, if the gaming state data does not match “110” in S10, the process proceeds to S17, and whether the newly generated gaming state data matches “010” indicating the probability variation state. Determine whether or not.

  In the determination of S17, if the game state data matches “010”, the process proceeds to S18, where it is determined that the probability variation state is reached, and the process proceeds to S19, where 1 is added to the number of times of probability change in the game information table. After that, the process proceeds to S20, and the display mode corresponding to the probability variation state set in the display mode setting table 1, specifically, as shown in FIG. “Probably changing” is displayed, and the display of the character color corresponding to the probability variation state is red and the background color is white is displayed on the display screen 261, and the lighting mode of the light bulb 267 is set to the blinking lighting state of the medium speed cycle. This notifies the player that the probability variation state has occurred.

  Then, the process proceeds to S7 described above, and the new game state “probability change” and the game state data “010” are updated and stored in the game state and the previous game state data in the game information table, and then to S1. Return.

  If the game state data does not match “010” in the determination of S17, the process proceeds to S21, where it is determined that a time-short state has occurred, and the process proceeds to S22, where it is set in the display mode setting table 1. A display mode corresponding to the time-short state, specifically, “time-short / medium” is displayed in the upper corner of the display screen 261, and further, a display screen in which the character color corresponding to the time-short state is blue and the background color is white is displayed. 261, and the lighting mode of the light bulb 267 is set to the blinking lighting state of the low-speed cycle, thereby notifying the player that the short-time state has occurred.

  Then, the process proceeds to S7 described above, and the new game state “time reduction” and the game state data “001” are updated and stored in the game state and the previous game state data in the game information table, and then to S1. Return.

  Next, the processing after Sb1 shown in FIG. 14 performed when the setting of the connected model is type A in the determination of S2 will be described. First, in Sb1, the new gaming state generated in S1 is described. It is determined whether the data is “000”, which is a normal gaming state.

  In the determination of Sb1, when the value matches “000”, a game state other than the normal game state, specifically, a state in which the normal game state is newly set from the big hit state “110” or the short-time state “001”. Therefore, all the light bulbs 267 are turned off and the game data is displayed on the display screen 261 in a display mode in which the character color is black and the background color is white. Display (Sb2).

  Then, the process proceeds to Sb2 +, and when the game state is newly set to the normal game state, it is determined that the extended game period has ended. At that time, the extended game number A and the extended game number B are stored in the game information table. After specifying the number of consecutive villas A and the number of consecutive villas B, the process proceeds to Sb3, and the specified number of consecutive villas A is larger than the past maximum number of consecutive villas registered in the jackpot A history table. And whether or not the specified consecutive resort count B is larger than the past highest consecutive resort count registered in the big hit B history table is determined.

  In the determination, when the past maximum consecutive resort number is exceeded, the process proceeds to Sb4, and today's big hit history data including the big hit history of the specified consecutive resort number A or consecutive resort number B is recorded. After updating and registering as the number of times data, the process proceeds to Sb4 +, and if the specified number of consecutive resorts A or consecutive resorts B is less than the highest ever consecutive resort number, the process proceeds to Sb4 + without performing the process of Sb4. In addition, the number of consecutive resorts stored in the consecutive resort number A and the consecutive resort number B in the game information table is reset, and when the reset consecutive resort number A is 2 or more, the previous consecutive resort number A and the previous consecutive number The number of resorts A and the number of resorts B that have been reset are updated and stored in the resort number B, respectively.

  That is, in Sb4 + of the game information update process of the present embodiment, the input of the jackpot signal 2 and the time-short signal as the second game state information in the present invention has not been detected, that is, the game state data is “000”. Based on the normal gaming state that becomes the first consecutive villa occurrence number storage means according to the present invention, the first consecutive villa occurrence number A and the second consecutive villa number that are stored in the game information table. The number of consecutive resorts B, which is the number of occurrences, is reset, and the reset processing according to the present invention is formed by the processing in Sb4 +. The control microcomputer 279 that implements Sb4 + performs the first consecutive resort generation number processing means and the second series. Zhuang occurrence frequency processing means is formed.

  Further, the control microcomputer 279 serving as the first consecutive resort occurrence number processing means and the second consecutive resort occurrence number processing means in the present invention is reset in the game information update process Sb4 + of the present embodiment. The number of consecutive villas A which is the number of times and the number of consecutive villas B which is the number of times of occurrence of the second consecutive villa are updated and stored in the previous consecutive villas number A and the previous consecutive villa times B As shown in FIG. 17, the number B of previous consecutive consecutive times is displayed on the display screen 261 by the control microcomputer 279.

  In the present embodiment, the resetting of the number of consecutive games A, which is the number of times the first consecutive game has occurred, is performed based on the fact that the game state data is “000” as described above. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the resetting of the number of consecutive games A is performed in Sc4, which will be described later, which is determined to have occurred for the first time in the first specific gaming state. May be. In other words, in Sc4, which will be described later as the first consecutive resort determination process in the present invention, the consecutive resort that is the first consecutive resort occurrence number based on the determination that the first hit (the first first specific gaming state) has occurred. The number of times A may be reset.

  Also, in this embodiment, the resetting of the number of consecutive games B, which is the number of times the second consecutive game is generated, is performed based on the fact that the game state data is “000” as described above. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the resetting of the number of consecutive games B is performed in the first big hit (first specific game state) or the first small game in the second consecutive game determination process of Sb7 + described later. Based on the determination that a hit (second specific gaming state) has occurred, the number of consecutive resorts B that is the number of second consecutive resorts may be reset.

  Then, the process proceeds to Sb5, and the new game state “normal” and the game state data “000” are updated and stored in the game state and the previous game state data in the game information table, and then the process returns to S1.

  In the determination of Sb1, if the generated new game state data does not match “000” which is the normal game state, the process proceeds to Sb6 and “110” corresponding to the big hit state or the small hit state. Is determined.

  In this determination, if it coincides with “110”, the process proceeds to Sb7, and it is determined whether or not the big hit B display setting is set according to the state of the No. 3 and No. 4 switches of the DIP switch 277.

  When the big hit B display setting is set in the determination, the process proceeds to Sb7 + and the second consecutive resort determination process is performed. In the second consecutive resort determination process, the big hit or the small hit generated in the corresponding pachinko machine 2 is the first big hit or the small hit generated in the normal gaming state, or a gaming state other than the normal gaming state, that is, It is determined whether it is a big hit or a small hit of the extended resort that occurred in the probability fluctuation state or the short time state. Specifically, when the previous gaming state data in the gaming information table at that time is “000”, the occurrence of the first big hit (first specific gaming state) or the first small hit (second specific gaming state) On the other hand, when the previous game state data is other than “000”, that is, “010”, “111”, “001”, it is determined that the big hit or small hit of the villa is generated.

  That is, in the second consecutive game determination process, when the signal input unit 278a serving as the specific gaming state information detecting unit detects the input of the big hit signal 1 as the specific gaming state information, that is, the gaming state data is “110”. At that time, the input of the big hit signal 2 or the short time signal as the second gaming state information is not detected by the signal input units 278a to 278c as the second gaming state information detecting means, that is, the gaming state data is Based on the fact that it is “000”, it is determined that the first hit (the first specific gaming state for the first time) or the first small hit (the second specified gaming state) occurs, while the big hit signal 2 that becomes the second gaming state information Or, if the input of the time-short signal is detected, that is, the game state data is “010”, “111”, “001”, the big hit of the villa (first specific game state) or Has determined that the generation of the extended game Koatari (second specific game state).

  Then, proceeding to Sb8, from the previous gaming state data in the gaming information table, in which gaming state the generated big hit or small hit is the big hit or small hit generated, that is, the previous gaming state data is “000”. If there is, it is determined that it has occurred in the normal gaming state, and if the previous gaming state data is “010”, it is determined that it has occurred in the probability variation gaming state, and the previous gaming state data is “001”. For example, it is determined that the error occurred in the short-time state.

  The real time clock (RTC) 273 outputs, based on the detection of the input of the jackpot signal 1 and the jackpot signal 2 regardless of whether the gaming state is a big hit or a small hit. Together with the determined time and the type of the determined gaming state (“normal” for normal gaming state, “probably changing” for probability-changing gaming state, “short-time” for short-time gaming state) , Registered as the lowest jackpot of the jackpot B history table, and a value obtained by adding 1 to the number of consecutive hits corresponding to the previous jackpot or small hit registered in the jackpot B history table to the number of consecutive hits of the registration After registration, the process proceeds to Sb9.

  In Sb9, 1 is added to the jackpot number B and the number of consecutive games B in the game information table, and the jackpot probability B is updated from the value of the jackpot number B after the addition and the total start number, and the number of jackpot start times The data of B is updated. Specifically, among the jackpot start times B, each jackpot start is sequentially performed such that the jackpot start 2 start count is the jackpot start 3 and the jackpot start 3 start count is the jackpot start 4. Is shifted (shifted) one by one, the big hit start 1 is reset, and the reset start number of the big hit start 1 is updated and stored in the big hit start 2.

  That is, in Sb9, when the big hit B display setting which is the setting of the second extended resort determination process is set in the dip switch 277 serving as the extended resort determination selection means of the present invention, it is determined as “No” in Sb13. Thus, it is determined that the first hit (first first specific gaming state) or the first small hit (second specified gaming state) is generated by the second consecutive game determination process of Sb7 + performed by the control microcomputer 279. Regardless of whether or not it is determined that a big hit (first specified gaming state) or a small hit (second specified gaming state) of the extended resort, that is, which big hit or small hit is determined. First, based on the fact that the game state data is “110”, the number of consecutive games B (first game) stored in the game information table serving as the second consecutive game occurrence number storage means in the present invention. Extended game occurrence count) are added updated, second communication Zhuang occurrences addition update process in the present invention is formed by the process of the Sb9.

  And it progresses to Sb10, specifies the display mode according to the number B of consecutive resorts after addition update in Sb9 based on the data of the above-mentioned display mode setting table 2, and displays the display mode of the display screen 261. While updating to the jackpot display of the specified display mode, the lighting mode of the light bulb 267 is set to the jackpot lighting state. Specifically, for example, if the number of consecutive resorts B is 3, the display frame color corresponding to the number of consecutive resorts is “blue”, so that a blue frame is displayed and a display mode corresponding to the jackpot is displayed. A “big hit” at the corner of the display screen 261 is displayed, and a display in which the character color is white and the background color is red is displayed on the display screen 261, and the lighting mode of the light bulb 267 is a fast cycle. The flashing lighting state of is notified to the player that a big hit or a small hit has occurred.

  In this way, the control microcomputer 279 serving as the display control means in the present invention is set in the display mode setting table 2 step by step according to the number of consecutive resorts B that is the second consecutive resort occurrence number by executing Sb10. The display mode corresponding to the number of consecutive resorts B at that time is specified from the displayed display mode, and the display is performed in the specified display mode.

  Then, the process proceeds to Sb10 +, the running signal output process is performed, and then the process proceeds to Sb5 described above. After updating and storing the game state and the previous game state data in the information table, the process returns to S1. Note that the running signal output process of Sb10 + is the same as S25 described above, and a detailed description thereof will be omitted.

  On the other hand, if the jackpot B display setting is not set in the determination of Sb7, that is, if the jackpot A display setting is set or the jackpot A / B display setting is set, the process proceeds to Sb11. After starting the big hit determination timer with the aforementioned big hit determination threshold time set, the process proceeds to Sb12, and it cannot be determined at this point whether the generated gaming state is a big hit state or a small hit state. Assuming that at least a small hit state has occurred, the lighting mode of the light bulb 267 is repeated in a small hitting mode in the display mode setting table 1, specifically, two flashing lightings in a medium speed cycle. The two medium-speed cycle flashing lighting states are performed, and the small hit display mode in the display mode setting table 1, specifically, By displaying on the display screen 261 the character color corresponding to white and the background color blue, on the display screen 261, if a small hit has occurred in the corresponding pachinko machine 2, the player is informed that the small hit has occurred. If the jackpot is generated in the corresponding pachinko machine 2 and the jackpot determination timer is determined to be a jackpot when the timer is up, as shown later, the display mode and the lighting mode corresponding to the jackpot are set. By changing, the player is notified of the occurrence of the big hit from the middle of the big hit. Note that the big hit determination timer started in Sb11 is detected in an interrupt process shown in FIG. Based on the detection of the input of the jackpot signal 1 serving as the specific gaming state information in the present invention by the control microcomputer 279 that implements the Sb11, the jackpot determination threshold time is set according to the gaming state data becoming “110”. The clocking of the big hit determination timer is started, and the clocking means in the present invention is formed by the control microcomputer 279 that implements Sb11.

  Then, the process proceeds to Sb13, and it is determined whether or not the big hit A display setting is set according to the state of the No. 3 and No. 4 switches of the dip switch 277 described above.

  If the big hit A display setting is set in this determination, the process returns to S1, while if the big hit A display setting is not set, that is, if the big hit A / B display setting is set, the process returns to Sb13 +. After proceeding to the second consecutive resort determination process (corresponding to the second consecutive resort determination process in claim 4 of the present invention) that is the same as Sb7 + described above, the process proceeds to Sb14 and the previous gaming state data in the gaming information table From which gaming state the big hit or the small hit is the big hit or the small hit that occurred, that is, if the previous gaming state data is “000”, it is determined that it occurred in the normal gaming state, If the previous gaming state data is “010”, it is determined that the occurrence occurred in the probability variation gaming state, and if the previous gaming state data is “001”, the time saving state It determines that obtained by Oite occurred.

  Then, the current time output from the real-time clock (RTC) 273 and the type of the determined gaming state (“normally in normal gaming state”, “in probability changing” in probability variation gaming state, If the game is in the short-time game state, it is registered as the lowest jackpot of the jackpot B history table, and the number of registered consecutive games is registered in the jackpot B history table as the previous jackpot or jackpot. After registering a value obtained by adding 1 to the corresponding number of consecutive resorts, the process proceeds to Sb15.

  In Sb15, 1 is added to the jackpot number B and the consecutive game number B in the game information table, and the jackpot probability B is updated from the value of the jackpot number B after the addition and the total number of starts, and the number of jackpot start times The data of B is updated. Specifically, among the jackpot start times B, each jackpot start is sequentially performed such that the jackpot start 2 start count is the jackpot start 3 and the jackpot start 3 start count is the jackpot start 4. Is shifted (shifted) one by one, the big hit start 1 is reset, the updated start number of the big hit start 1 is updated and stored in the big hit start 2, and the process returns to S1.

  In other words, in Sb15, when the big hit A / B display setting is set in the dip switch 277 serving as the consecutive resort determination selection means of the present invention, the control microcomputer 279 determines that it is “No” in Sb13. It is determined that the first hit (first first specific gaming state) or the first small hit (second specified gaming state) is generated by the Sb13 + second consecutive resort determination process, or the consecutive jackpot ( Regardless of whether it is determined that the first specific gaming state) or the small hit of the villa (second specific gaming state), that is, whether any big hit or small hit is determined, the game state data is “110”. Is added to the game number table B (second game occurrence number) stored in the game information table serving as the second game generation number storage means in the present invention. Has been updated, the second communication Zhuang occurrences addition update process in claim 4 of the present invention by treatment of the Sb15 is formed.

  If the game state data generated in S1 in Sb6 does not match “110”, the process proceeds to Sb17, and the newly generated game state data “010” indicates the probability variation state. ] Is matched.

  If it is determined in S17 that the game state data matches “010”, the process proceeds to Sb18, and is determined to be in a probability variation state. Then, the process proceeds to Sb19, and 1 is added to the number of probability changes in the game information table. Then, the process proceeds to Sb20, and it is determined whether or not the previous game state data in the game information table is “000” indicating the normal game state.

  In this determination, if the previous game state data is “000”, the process proceeds to Sb21, where it is determined that the probability variation state has occurred after a small hit has occurred from the normal game state, and the new game The state “probability change” and the game state data “111” indicating the probability variation state after the small hit are updated and stored in the game state and the previous game state data in the game information table, and then stored in Sb22. Then, the display mode set for the probability variation state after the small hit in the display mode setting table 1, specifically, “probably changing” is displayed in the upper corner of the display screen 261, A display with a green character color and a white background color is displayed on the display screen 261, and the lighting state of the light bulb 267 is set to the blinking lighting state of the medium speed cycle, so that the probability fluctuation state after the small hit occurs. Shi To inform the player that.

  On the other hand, in the determination of Sb20, if the previous gaming state data is not “000”, specifically, if it is “110”, the process proceeds to Sb23 and is a probability fluctuation state that occurs after the probability variation big hit. It is determined that the new game state “probability change” and the game state data “010” indicating the probability change state after the probability change big hit are the game state and the previous game state data in the game information table. In step Sb24, the display mode set for the probability variation state after the probability variation big hit in the display mode setting table 1, specifically, the “probability variation” is displayed in the upper corner of the display screen 261. “Medium” is displayed, and a display in which the text color is red and the background color is white is displayed on the display screen 261, and the lighting mode of the light bulb 267 is set to the blinking lighting state of the medium speed cycle. In, to inform the player that the probability change state after the probability variation big hit has occurred.

  If the game state data does not match “010” in the determination of Sb17, the process proceeds to Sb25, determines that a time-short state has occurred, and proceeds to Sb26. The display mode that has been set, specifically, “short and middle” is displayed in the upper corner of the display screen 261, and further, a display in which the text color is blue and the background color is white is displayed on the display screen 261. After the lighting mode of the light bulb 267 is changed to the blinking lighting state of the low-speed cycle, the player is informed that the time-saving state has occurred, and then proceeds to Sb5 described above, and the new gaming state “Time-saving” ”And“ 001 ”which is the game state data are updated and stored in the game state and the previous game state data in the game information table, and the process returns to S1.

  Next, interrupt processing executed in parallel with the above-described game information update processing by the control microcomputer 279 of this embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. 15. First, in the interrupt processing, SW1 to SW3 By repeatedly executing the processing, the control microcomputer 279 waits for input detection of the start signal, waits for the big hit determination timer to be up, and waits for input detection of the running signal in the control microcomputer 279.

  At this stage, when a start signal is input to the signal input unit 278d, the input of the start signal is detected at SW1 and proceeds to SW4, and normal processing (game information update processing) is temporarily interrupted and interrupted. And proceeding to SW5, adding 1 to the total number of starts today and the number of starts A and B of the jackpot start 1 in the game information table, and then ending the interrupt process and waiting for the SW1 to SW3 Return to.

  In the standby state of SW1 to SW3, when the big hit determination timer is up, the big hit determination timer is detected at SW2 and proceeds to SW6. In addition, the process proceeds to SW7, and at that time, the state where the big hit signal 1 (and the big hit signal 2) is output from the corresponding pachinko machine 2, that is, whether or not the game state data is “110”. Determine.

  In this determination, if the game state data is not “110”, that is, if the corresponding big hit signal 1 (and the big hit signal 2) accompanying the big hit state is not output from the corresponding pachinko machine 2, the big hit Since it can be determined that the gaming state whose gaming state data is “110” at the time of the start of the judgment timer is not a big hit but a small hit, the number of start of the big hit start 1 performed when the big hit state occurs Without executing A reset or adding to the number of consecutive resorts A, the interruption process is terminated and the standby state of the SW1 to SW3 is returned, while the game state data is “110” in the determination of the SW7. In other words, when the big hit signal 1 (and the big hit signal 2) associated with the big hit state is output from the corresponding pachinko machine 2, FIG. It is Sc1 to implement the subsequent processing.

  In this Sc1, first, it is determined that the gaming state whose gaming state data is “110” at the start of the jackpot determination timer is a big hit, and it is determined that the big hit has occurred at the time when the timer is up. , The process proceeds to Sc2 to determine whether the previous game state data registered in the game information table is “000” in order to specify whether the big hit is the “first win” generated in the normal game state. judge.

  In the determination of Sc2, if the previous gaming state data is “000”, it is determined that the big hit is the “first hit” generated in the normal gaming state, and the process proceeds to Sc4 to determine the occurrence of the big hit. Along with the current time output from the real-time clock (RTC) 273 and the status of the determined jackpot status “normal”, it is registered as the lowest jackpot in the jackpot A history table, and the registration sequence After registering “1” as the number of villas, the process proceeds to Sc5, and the jackpot display mode set in the display mode setting table 1 is displayed, specifically, “Big hit” is displayed in the upper corner of the display screen 261. Further, the display on the display screen 261 is changed to display the character color is white and the background color is red, and the process proceeds to Sc6, where the jackpot lighting mode set in the display mode setting table 1 is set. The, by changing the lighting mode of the light bulb 267 to blink lighting state of the high-speed cycle, notifying that the big hit has occurred to the player.

  Then, the process advances to Sc7, 1 is added to the jackpot number A and the extended game number A, the jackpot probability A is updated from the value of the jackpot number A and the total start number after the addition, and the process proceeds to Sc8 to start the jackpot. The data of the number of times A is updated. Specifically, out of the jackpot start count A, the jackpot start 2 start count is the jackpot start 3, the jackpot start 3 start count is the jackpot start 4, and so on. The start number 1 is shifted (shifted) one by one, the big hit start 1 is reset, the updated start number of the big hit start 1 is updated and stored in the big hit start 2, and then the process proceeds to Sc9, where the running signal After executing the output process, the process proceeds to Sc10, and after the new game state “big hit” and the game state data “110” are updated and stored in the game state and the previous game state data in the game information table, The interruption process is terminated and the standby state of SW1 to SW3 is returned. Note that the running signal output process of Sc9 is the same as that of S25 described above, and will not be described in detail.

  On the other hand, if it is determined in Sc2 that the previous game state data is not “000”, the process proceeds to Sc3 to determine whether or not the previous game state data matches “010” or “111”. .

  If the previous game state data matches “010” or “111” in the determination, the process proceeds to Sc11, and it is determined that the generated jackpot is the “probable middle jackpot” that occurred in the probability fluctuation state. The occurrence of the jackpot is defined as the bottom jackpot of the jackpot A history table together with the current time output from the real-time clock (RTC) 273 and the determined jackpot status type “probably changing”. After registering, a value obtained by adding 1 to the number of consecutive resorts corresponding to the previous jackpot registered in the jackpot A history table is registered to the number of consecutive resorts registered in the jackpot A history table. The display mode corresponding to the number of consecutive resorts registered in (the same as the number of consecutive resorts A updated in Sc7) is specified based on the data of the display mode setting table 2 described above. And, the display mode of the display screen 261, and updates to the jackpot display of the specified display mode, the lighting mode of the bulb 267, the lighting state of the jackpot. Specifically, for example, if the number of consecutive resorts A is 3, the display frame color corresponding to the number of consecutive resorts is “blue”, so that a blue frame is displayed and the upper corner of the display screen 261 is displayed. Is displayed on the display screen 261, and the lighting mode of the light bulb 267 is flashing in a high-speed cycle. By notifying the player that the jackpot has occurred, the processing of Sc6 to Sc10 described above is performed, the interrupt processing is terminated, and the standby state of SW1 to SW3 is returned.

  As described above, the control microcomputer 279 serving as the display control means in the present invention is set in the display mode setting table 2 step by step according to the number of consecutive resorts A that is the first consecutive resort generation number by executing Sc12. The display mode corresponding to the number of consecutive resorts A at that time is specified from the displayed display mode, and the display is performed in the specified display mode.

  If the previous game state data does not match “010” or “111” in the determination in Sc3, the process proceeds to Sc13, where the generated big hit is “time-short-medium big-bonus” generated in the time-short state. And the occurrence of the jackpot is determined in the jackpot A history table together with the current time output from the real-time clock (RTC) 273 and the determined jackpot status type “time short and medium”. After registering as the lowest jackpot, and registering a value obtained by adding 1 to the number of consecutive jackpots corresponding to the previous jackpot registered in the jackpot A history table to the number of consecutive jackpots, the process proceeds to Sc12 described above. The display mode according to the number of consecutive villas registered in the jackpot A history table (same as the number of consecutive villas A updated in Sc7) is set as the display mode described above. Table 2 is identified based on the data in Table 2, and the display mode of the display screen 261 is updated to the jackpot display of the identified display mode, and the lighting mode of the light bulb 267 is changed to the jackpot lighting state, thereby After notifying that a big hit has occurred, after carrying out the processing of Sc6 to Sc10 described above, the interruption processing is terminated and the standby state of SW1 to SW3 is returned.

  That is, in the interrupt process of the present embodiment, when the jackpot determination timer that is the time when the time measured in the present invention reaches the threshold time, the signal input unit 278a serving as the specific gaming state information detection means When the game state data is “110” based on the detection of the input of the jackpot signal 1 serving as the specific gaming state information, the point of time when the input of the jackpot signal 1 that triggered the start of the jackpot determination timer, that is, At the time when the game state data becomes “110”, the input of the big hit signal 2 or the short time signal which is the second game state information in the present invention is not detected, that is, the previous game state data of the game state table is the big hit. Based on the fact that the input of the signal 2 or the short time signal is “000” corresponding to the undetected gaming state (the first identification of the first time) On the other hand, the input of the second gaming state information is detected, that is, the previous gaming state data in the gaming state table is detected as the jackpot signal 2 or the input of the short time signal. Based on “010”, “111”, and “001” corresponding to the gaming state, it is determined that the first specific gaming state of the villa is a probable big hit, a short-time middle big hit, and the interrupt processing Thus, the first extended resort determination process according to the present invention is formed, and the extended microcomputer determination processing means is formed by the control microcomputer 279 that implements the interrupt process.

  In addition, in Sc7 of the interrupt processing of the present embodiment, the occurrence of the first hit (first first specific gaming state) in the above-mentioned Sc4, or the probability change medium big hit in the above-mentioned Sc11, the occurrence of short-time middle big hit in the above-mentioned Sc13 The number of consecutive resorts A as the first consecutive resort occurrence number stored in the game information table serving as the first consecutive resort generation number storage means is updated based on the determination, and the processing of Sc7 The first consecutive villa occurrence number addition update process is formed in the present invention, and the first consecutive villa occurrence number addition processing means is formed by the control microcomputer 279 that executes the first consecutive villa occurrence number addition update process.

  Further, in the standby state of SW1 to SW3, when the signal input / output units 278e and 278f detect the input of the running signal from the adjacent call lamp device 200, the input detection of the running signal is detected in SW3. The process proceeds to SW8, interrupts the normal process by temporarily interrupting it, proceeds to SW9, performs the running lighting process in which all the light bulbs 267 are lit only once for a short time, and then proceeds to SW10 to dip. In the No. 8 switch of the switch 277, it is determined whether or not termination is set.

  In this determination, if there is a termination setting, the process proceeds to SW11, and after outputting to the signal input / output unit on the running signal input side, the interrupt process is terminated and the standby state of SW1 to SW3 is returned. Specifically, for example, when a running signal is detected by the signal input / output unit 278e, the running signal is output to the signal input / output unit 278e.

  On the other hand, in the determination of SW10, if there is no termination setting, the process proceeds to SW12, the running signal is output to the signal input / output unit on the opposite side to the signal input / output unit on the running signal input side, and the interrupt processing is terminated. Thus, the standby state of the SW1 to SW3 is returned. Specifically, for example, when a running signal is detected by the signal input / output unit 278e, the running signal is output to the signal input / output unit 278f on the opposite side, and the running signal is output by the signal input / output unit 278f. If detected, a running signal is output to the signal input / output unit 278e on the opposite side.

  Each game information in the game information table updated by the game information update process and the interrupt process is displayed on the switches No. 3 and No. 4 of the dip switch 277 described above by the control microcomputer 279 as shown in FIG. Table data serving as game information corresponding to the setting is displayed.

  Specifically, when the type N is set as the connected model, the control microcomputer 279 performs the total start count and the big hit count A of the game information table by the game information update process shown in FIG. 13 and the interrupt process described above.

  Further, when the player wants to check the occurrence status of the jackpot, it is only necessary to operate the input button 255c corresponding to the menu of the “hit history”, and the control microcomputer 279 causes the control microcomputer 279 to operate the jackpot A The big hit history screen shown in FIG. 18C similar to the big hit history screen described above is displayed on the display screen 261 based on today's data stored in the history table and today's data stored in the big hit B history table. Thus, the player can check the occurrence status of the big hit including the big hit as the big hit and the occurrence status of the big hit not including the small hit as the big hit at a time.

  As described above, according to the first embodiment, when a big hit state (first specific game state) occurs in the corresponding pachinko machine 2, the input of the big hit signal 1 is detected even when the big hit determination timer is up. Therefore, Sc7 in the interrupt process which is the first consecutive villa occurrence number addition update process is performed and the consecutive villa number A which is the first consecutive villa occurrence number is added and updated, while the corresponding pachinko machine 2 has a small hit When (the second specific gaming state) occurs, the input of the big hit signal 1 is not detected because the small hit state has already ended at the time when the big hit determination timer has expired. Since the game state data of the game game data is not updated, the game game machine provided in correspondence with the game game data provided by the game is not subject to the small hit (second specific game). Even pachinko machine 2 for generating state), can be displayed similar to the conventional extended game number.

  The second embodiment corresponds to claim 2, claim 3, and claim 4, and the call lamp device 200 'that is the game display device of the second embodiment is characterized by the call lamp of the first embodiment. In the device 200, if the big hit state in which the input of the big hit signal 1 and the big hit signal 2 is detected at the time when the big hit determination timer set with the big hit determination threshold time is timed up, it is determined that the big hit has occurred. On the other hand, in the second embodiment, these jackpot determinations are made after the input of the jackpot signal 1 is detected and then the input of the jackpot signal 1 signal is not detected, that is, the jackpot signal 1 When the time during which the signal is input is counted and the time is longer than the execution time of the small hit state and longer than the big hit determination threshold time shorter than the execution time of the big hit The other points are the same as those of the call lamp device 200 of the first embodiment, and the description of the same parts is omitted. The game information update process and the interrupt process, which are the characteristic parts of the second embodiment, which are the changed points, will be described below with reference to FIGS.

  First, the game information update process according to the second embodiment performs the process shown in FIG. 13 in the same manner as in the first embodiment. When the type A is set, the process shown in FIG. 14 is performed. Instead, the process shown in FIG. 19 is performed.

  Specifically, in the process shown in FIG. 19, the process of Sb11 + is performed in place of the above-described Sb11.

  That is, in the corresponding pachinko machine 2, a big hit or a small hit occurs, and the big hit signal 1 and the big hit signal 2 are output, so that the game state data of “110” is generated in the aforementioned S1. If the determination in Sb6 is “Yes” and the process proceeds to S7, and the big hit B display setting is not set in the determination of Sb7, that is, the big hit A display setting is set, or the big hit A / B display If the setting is set, the process proceeds to Sb11 +, and starts counting the jackpot determination time for counting the time when the input of the jackpot signal 1 and the jackpot signal 2 is detected, and then to the above-described Sb12. Then, the same processing as in the first embodiment after Sb12 is performed.

  Further, in the second embodiment, as shown in FIG. 19, Sb0 is provided for determining whether or not the big hit determination time at which time measurement is started in Sb11 + is present (during time measurement). When the big hit or the small hit is generated in the pachinko machine 2 and the game state data becomes “110” and the timing of the big hit judgment time is started, then the big hit or the small hit is ended in the pachinko machine 2 When the game state data change is detected in S1 and proceeds to Sb0 via S2, it is determined in Sb0 that the jackpot determination time has been counted, and the jackpot determination process shown in FIG. 20 is performed. .

  In the jackpot determination process of the second embodiment, first, as shown in FIG. 20, the clocking of the jackpot determination time started in Sb11 + is ended (Sd1), and the jackpot determination time at which the clocking is ended is as described above. It is determined whether or not it is longer than the jackpot determination threshold time stored in the EEPROM 276 (Sd2).

  In other words, the control microcomputer 279 of the second embodiment starts counting the jackpot determination time in Sb11 + of the game information update process and ends the jackpot determination time in Sd1 of the game information update process. The time from when the gaming state data based on detection of the input becomes “110” until the input of the jackpot signal 1 is not detected and becomes gaming state data other than “110” is timed. Therefore, the control means 279 for performing the game information update process forms the time measuring means in claim 2 of the present invention.

  In the determination, if the timed big hit determination time is longer than the big hit determination threshold time, the process proceeds to Sd3, and the gaming state in which the input of the big hit signal 1 and the big hit signal 2 that triggered the time of the big hit determination time is detected. In order to determine whether or not the big hit is the “first hit” that occurred in the normal gaming state after determining that the big hit has occurred at the time when the timing is finished and proceeding to Sd4 , It is determined whether or not the previous game state data registered in the game information table is “000”.

  In the determination of Sd4, when the previous gaming state data is “000”, it is determined that the big hit is the “first hit” that occurred in the normal gaming state, and the process proceeds to Sd6 to determine the occurrence of the big hit. Along with the current time output from the real-time clock (RTC) 273 and the status of the determined jackpot status “normal”, it is registered as the lowest jackpot in the jackpot A history table, and the registration sequence After registering “1” as the number of villas, the process proceeds to Sd 7, and the jackpot display mode set in the display mode setting table 1, specifically, “Big hit” is displayed in the upper corner of the display screen 261.
