  In the present embodiment, the left warp outlet 63 in the accessory device 6 also serves as the third payout opening 18 for winning balls when winning the first and second start winning openings 7, 7, and 8.

  Next, a control flow is demonstrated according to the flowchart shown in FIGS. FIG. 5 shows a flow of the basic process. First, the start winning process (S1) is executed, then the accessory release process (S2) is executed, and then the accessory winning process (S3) is executed. Hereinafter, the start winning process will be described in order.

  FIG. 6 shows the flow of the start winning process. It is determined whether or not there is a winning at the first starting winning port 7, 7 or the second starting winning port 8 (S11). If there is no winning, the process returns. On the other hand, if there is a winning, the start invalid flag is “0”. Is determined (S12). When the jackpot (two types of jackpots) and when the accessory device 6 is being driven, the start winning is invalidated (the start invalid flag is set to “1”). When the start invalid flag is not “0” (during jackpot), the payout opening for the winning ball according to the starting winning is the upper plate 4, and the predetermined number of winning balls (in the present embodiment, the first starting winning ports 7, 7) Alternatively, the number of winning balls at the time of winning the second start winning opening 8 is 5) (S13).

  If the start invalid flag is “0” in S12, the start invalid flag is set to “1” (S14), and a payout time lottery random number and a payout location lottery random number are also acquired (S15, S16). Note that during the jackpot or during the operation of the accessory device 6, all the payout time lottery random numbers and payout location lottery random numbers are not acquired and are paid out to the upper plate 4 (S13).

The payout time lottery and the payout location lottery will be described. In this embodiment, when winning at the first start winning port 7, 7 or the second starting winning port 8, a time for paying out the winning ball and a place (winning ball paying exit) are determined by lottery. In the payout time lottery random number, the range of the counter value is “0 to 2” and is set as follows.
The payout time is immediately after winning the start prize opening (corresponding to the payout time lottery random number “0”)
The payout time immediately after opening the accessory device (corresponds to the payout time lottery random number “1”)
After completion of driving of the accessory device (corresponds to the lottery random number “2”)
It is said.

In the payout location lottery random number, the range of the counter value is “0 to 3” and is set as follows.
Dispensing points in the upper plate 4 (corresponding to the payout lottery random number “0”)
First payout outlet 16 (corresponding to payout lottery random number “1”)
The payout point is the second payout port 17 (corresponding to the payout point lottery random number “2”)
3rd payout outlet 18 (corresponds to payout lottery random number “3”)
It is said.

  Returning to FIG. 6, it is determined whether or not the payout time lottery random number is “0” (S17). If it is not “0”, the process proceeds to S19, whereas if it is “0”, the start winning payout process is executed. (S18).

FIG. 7 shows the flow of the start winning / dispensing process. The start winning / dispensing process is executed in a state where the payout time lottery random number is “0”, that is, the payout time is immediately after the winning of the start winning opening. It is determined whether or not the payout location lottery random number is “0” (S31). If it is “0”, 5 payouts are made to the upper plate 4 (normal payout port) (S32). If the payout point lottery random number is not “0”, it is determined whether or not the payout point lottery random number is “1” (S33). If the payout point lottery random number is “1”, the first payout port 16 (of the left spring member 11) is determined. Two (special prize balls) are paid out from the first payout outlet 16) at the upper position (S34), and three (normal prize balls) are paid out to the upper plate 4 (normal payout outlet) ( S35). In this embodiment, the number of payouts is three in advance for the upper plate 4 (ordinary payout port) and two for the first, second or third payout ports 16, 17, 18 (special payout port). That is, the number of prize balls is divided into five (total prize balls), and three of them are given as normal prize balls to the upper plate 4 (ordinary payout opening) and the remaining two as special prize balls to the first payout opening 16. I am trying to pay out. The ball (special prize ball) paid out from the first payout opening 16 may win a prize into the accessory device 6 via the honey member 11 , rather than the ball (game ball) fired from the launch device 45. Higher opportunities for players.

If the payout point lottery random number is not “1” in S33, it is determined whether or not the payout point lottery random number is “2” (S36), and if it is “2”, the second payout outlet 17 (second start winning prize) Two (special prize balls) are paid out from the second payout outlet 17) above the mouth 8 (S37), and three (normal prize balls) are paid out to the upper plate 4 (normal payout outlet). (S35). The ball (special prize ball) paid out from the second payout opening 17 is more likely to win the second start winning opening 8 than the ball (game ball) fired from the launching device 45, and there is a chance for the player. spread. When winning at the second start winning opening 8, not only the accessory device 6 is opened, but also a payout lottery accompanying the winning is performed, which becomes a chance again. Note that the second payout opening 17 may be provided at a position above the first start winning prize ports 7 and 7.

When the payout location lottery random number is not “2” in S36, two payouts (the number of special prize balls) are paid out from the third payout outlet 18 (the left warp outlet 63 (third payout outlet 18) in the accessory device 6 ) . At the same time (S38), three (normal number of winning balls) are paid out to the upper plate 4 (normal payout opening) (S35). Balls that are paid out from the third payout opening 18 (special prize balls), rather than balls (game balls) fired from the launching device 45, is likely to win the V winning opening 61, the opportunity for the player .

  Returning to FIG. 6, it is determined whether or not the winning of the start winning opening is the first starting winning opening 7 or 7 (S 19). If it is not the first starting winning opening 7 or 7, the start flag 2 is set to “1”. On the other hand, if it is the first start winning opening 7,7, the start flag 1 is set to "1" (S21). In the present embodiment, two types of start winning ports are provided, and the opening mode (opening time and number of times of opening) of the honey members 11 and 11 of the accessory device 6 is changed depending on which one is won, and the first starting winning port 7 , 7, the start flag 1 is set to “1”, and the start flag 2 is set to “1” when the second start winning port 8 is won.

  Next, FIG. 8 shows a flow of the accessory release process. It is determined whether or not the jackpot flag is “0” (S41). If it is “0”, it is determined whether or not the start flag 1 is “1” (S42). If the start flag 1 is not “1”, the process proceeds to S47. If it is “1”, the spring members 11 and 11 of the accessory device 6 are released for 0.4 seconds (once) (S43) and the start is started. The flag 1 is returned to “0” (S44).

  Subsequently, it is determined whether or not the payout time random number is “1” (S45). If it is not “1”, the process proceeds to S47, whereas if it is “1”, the start winning payout process is executed (S46). . That is, the start winning / dispensing process shown in FIG. 7 is executed in a state in which the payout time is immediately after the accessory device 6 is opened. Therefore, for example, when the payout location lottery random number is “1”, the first payout port 16 (the first payout port 16 at the upper position of the honey member 11) becomes the payout port, and the timing immediately after the honey member 11 is opened. The ball is paid out and the winning of the ball into the accessory device 6 is almost certain, which is a chance for the player. As a result, the disappointment due to the time lag after winning the winning prize opening can be eliminated. However, depending on the payout location lottery random number, the first payout port 16 may not be a payout port when the last one is won for starting, and it may be contrary to the player's expectations, making the game interesting. .

  Returning to FIG. 8, it is determined whether or not the start flag 2 is “1” in S47. If it is not “1”, the process proceeds to S52, whereas if it is “1”, the spring member 11 of the accessory device 6 is determined. 11 are opened for 0.6 seconds (twice) (S48), and the start flag 2 is set to "0" (S49). Subsequently, it is determined whether or not the payout time lottery random number is “1” (S50), and start winning payout processing is executed (S51). In this case, the above-mentioned start winning / dispensing process is executed with the payout time immediately after the accessory device 6 is opened and opened twice, and the chances are further expanded.

  Subsequently, it is determined whether or not the opening of the accessory device 6 has ended (S52). If it has not ended, the process returns, while if it has ended, the start invalid flag is set to "0" (S53). Next, it is determined whether or not the payout time lottery random number is “2” (S54). If it is not “2”, the process returns, while if it is “2”, the start winning payout process is executed (S55). . That is, the above-described start winning / dispensing process is executed in a state where the payout time is after the driving of the accessory device 6 is completed. Therefore, for example, when the payout point lottery random number is “2”, the second payout port 17 (the second payout port 17 located above the second start winning port 8) becomes the payout port, and is invalid during the operation of the accessory. The start-up prize is activated, and it becomes a chance for the player. Also, for example, when the payout location lottery random number is “3”, the third payout exit 18 (warp exit 63) becomes a payout exit, and when the bonus release ends and the V prize is released, the player is revived. You can give a chance to win.

  If the jackpot flag is not “0” in S41, it is determined whether or not the accessory device 6 is open (S56). If it is open, the process returns. The release members 11, 11 are released for 1 second (once) (S57), and the release number counter for counting the number of releases is incremented by "1" (S58). At the time of the big hit, the opening time of the honeycomb members 11 is set to 1 second. Subsequently, it is determined whether or not the number of opening of the splash members 11 and 11 of the accessory device 6 has reached the maximum opening number “18” (S59), and if it has not reached “18”, the process returns. When the value reaches “18”, the accessory release end flag is set to “1” (S60).

FIG. 9 shows the flow of the prize winning process. It is determined whether or not there is a winning in the accessory device 6 (S61). If there is no winning, it is determined whether or not there is a payout from the third payout outlet 18 (warp outlet 63) (S62). If not, the process returns. On the other hand, if there is, it is determined whether or not there is a winning in the V winning opening 61 (S63). If there is no V prize, the process returns. On the other hand, if the V prize is won, the jackpot flag is set to “1” (S64) and the start invalid flag is set to “1” (S65).

  If there is a winning in the accessory device 6 in S61, a payout process is executed (S66). As the payout process, payout of prize balls (15 in this embodiment) is performed. Subsequently, it is determined whether or not the jackpot flag is “1” (S67). If it is not “1”, the process proceeds to S63, whereas if it is “1”, the number of winnings in the accessory device 6 is counted. The winning number counter to be incremented by “1” (S68). As shown in FIG. 4B, during the big win, the message display unit 15 indicates that the big hit is being made and, for example, “5” is shown in the winning number display unit 14 of the liquid crystal display unit 12, and the current winning number Represents five. Further, the round number display unit 13 indicates “2”, for example, and indicates that the current round is the second round.

  Next, it is determined whether or not a prize has been won in the V prize opening 61 (S69). If there is no V prize, the process proceeds to S72. On the other hand, if a V prize is won, the number of rounds reaches “8” which is the maximum number of rounds. It is determined whether or not (S70). If “8” has not been reached, the round update flag is set to “1” (S71), and then the process proceeds to S75.

  When the number of rounds reaches “8” in S70, it is determined whether or not the number of winnings to the accessory device 6 has reached “10” which is the maximum possible winning number (S72). If YES in step S75, the process proceeds to step S75. On the other hand, if it has not reached "10", it is determined whether or not the accessory release end flag is "1" (S73). Here, if the accessory release end flag is not “1”, the process returns, whereas if it is “1”, the accessory release flag is returned to “0” (S74).

  Subsequently, in S75, the winning prize counter and the number-of-releases counter of the bonus item are reset to “0” (S75). Next, it is determined whether or not the round update flag is “1” (S76). If the round update flag is not “1”, the jackpot flag is set to “0” (S77) and the start invalid flag is set to “1”. 0 ”(S78). If the round update flag is “1” in S76, the round number counter is incremented by “1” (S79), and the round update flag is set to “0” (S80).

In this way, there are a plurality of prize ball payout ports to be paid out when winning a game ball to the first start prize port 7, 7 or the second start prize port 8, specifically, the first payout outlet 16, The two payout ports 17 and the third payout port 18 are provided at three locations . These prize ball payout openings 16, 17, and 18 are the accessory device 6 (corresponding to the first payout opening 16), the second start winning opening 8 (corresponding to the second payout opening 17), and the V winning opening 61 (third for the corresponding to the payout opening 18), so to payout a ball (special prize balls) on possible winning position at a higher winning percentage than balls (game balls) fired from the launching device 45, a ball onto the game board (Special prize ball) will be meaningful and will enhance interest. Also, the payout time and the payout location are determined by lottery so that the lottery can have a sense of expectation, the payout time is immediately after the release of the spring members 11, 11, and the payout location is the first payout port 16. In such a case, it becomes possible to dispel the disappointment due to the time lag after winning the winning prize opening in the second type pachinko gaming machine.

Further, the number of prize balls to be paid out (the total number of prize balls) is the number of normal prize balls to be paid out from the normal payout outlet, and the first payout outlet 16, the second payout outlet 17 and the third payout outlet 18 other than the normal payout outlet (special payout). The number of special prize balls to be paid out from the exit) is not paid out to the special payout exit, and it is possible to prevent the number of balls from being increased. In addition, for cases where all winnings are made to the upper plate 4 (ordinary paying exit) when a big hit occurs, and the winning at the start winning opening that is a big hit is prohibited (invalid) in the second type pachinko machine Thus, no special prize ball is paid out from the special payout exits other than the upper plate 4 (normal payout exit) , so there is no payout to the prize ball payout exit unnecessary for the player.

In addition, you may add the following deformation | transformation to a present Example.
(1) Although both the payout time lottery random number and the payout location lottery random number are acquired, only one may be acquired and the other may be fixed. For example, the payout time can be fixed immediately after the accessory device 6 is opened, and only the payout point can be determined by lottery.
(2) Although the number of payouts to the payout opening provided on the game board surface is two, any number can be used as long as it is within the predetermined number of prize balls, and the number of payouts on the board surface can be selected by lottery. You may decide.
(3) The payout for the winning ball to the start winning opening is paid out from the board, but the payout may be made from the board to a winning opening other than the starting winning opening.

(4) A cancel button operated by the player is provided so that all payout is performed on the upper plate 4 while the cancel button is pressed or until the cancel button is pressed again. Good (all payouts should be used as an upper plate in case the player wants to get all of the prize balls, for example, when the player moves on the table).
(5) As shown in the display example of FIG. 4A, the payout ball is paid out from the “CHANCE first payout” and the first payout 16 to the payout portion at the time of payout, for example, to the message display portion 15 of the liquid crystal display portion 12. You may make it display that it is carried out. In addition, it may be displayed whether or not the payout for the start winning is over. For example, when the payout has not been completed, it can be indicated by “red” by a liquid crystal display unit or a display lamp, and when the payout has been completed, it can be indicated by “blue”.

(6) During the special game state (for example, during the probability change state), the payout may be made only at an advantageous timing, an advantageous place, or an advantageous payout may be made with an advantageous probability. Further, the payout on the game board surface may be changed. For example, three payouts may be made from the first payout opening 16 immediately after opening the accessory device 6 during the probability change state.
(7) The special gaming state (probability change state) may be determined by lottery at the time of winning the V winning port 61, the first starting winning port 7, 7 or the second starting winning port 8, If there is a payout and a V prize is received, the probability may be changed. Further, the probability change can be made until the next jackpot, or until the number of winnings at the start winning opening reaches a predetermined number.

(8) The payout port is changed when winning at both the first and second starting winning openings 7, 7, and 8. However, the second starting winning prize is only given when winning at the first starting winning opening 7,7. The payout opening may be changed only when winning at the mouth 8 or only when winning at any one of the first start winning holes 7, 7 (for example, the left side).

(9) The payout time is determined according to the payout time lottery random number, regardless of the payout location, but the combination of the payout time and the payout location is determined in advance to give the player a profit. In the case of the combination, the payout is made as it is, and in other cases, the payout time is different from the payout time corresponding to the payout time lottery random number (for example, at the end of the accessory operation). Good. For example, when paying out immediately after the start winning prize, the payout point to which a profit is given to the player is the third payout outlet 18, even if paying out to the upper plate 4 or the first and second payout outlets 16 and 17. Profits cannot be given to players. Therefore, when paying out to the upper plate 4 and the first and second payout openings 16 and 17, a configuration in which the payout time is postponed until the opening operation of the accessory, which is the final payout time, can be exemplified. By doing so, it is possible to maintain a sense of expectation until the end of the accessory operation.

In the special game state, the payout lottery random number and the payout time lottery random number may not be validated, and the combination that gives a profit to the player may be given priority. For example, when a lottery result is paid out to the second payout port 17 immediately after the accessory is released, the payout is made from the second payout port 17 after the operation of the accessory is finished, or the payout is made from the first payout port 16 immediately after the accessory is released. It can be illustrated. As described above, if one of them is made valid and the other has priority, an effective combination can be given to the player as a special gaming state.

(10) The present invention can be applied to a type 1 gaming machine, and a payout port may be provided at a position above the start winning opening to perform the same processing as the present plan. When applied to a type 1 gaming machine, for example, the timing of increasing the jackpot probability is from when a ball is paid out from a special payout opening until the ball wins a start winning opening and / or until a predetermined time elapses (which is the end timing) Either one or both may be provided, whichever comes first), the jackpot probability is changed from 1/300 to 1/30, or the probability of paying out from the special payout port is lower than in the embodiment. Thus, once paying out from the special payout port, it is preferable to pay out from the special payout port to the next jackpot and / or increase the jackpot probability until the next jackpot.
