[First Embodiment]
Hereinafter, an embodiment of a pachinko gaming machine 10 (corresponding to the “gaming machine” of the present invention) to which the present invention is applied will be described with reference to FIGS. In the following description, “left and right” are left and right when the pachinko gaming machine 10 is viewed from the front.

<About the general structure of the front side of the pachinko machine 10>
The pachinko gaming machine 10 includes a substantially circular gaming area R surrounded by guide rails 12 on the front surface of the gaming board 11 shown in FIG. 2, and the gaming area R is provided on a front window 10W provided on the front surface of the pachinko gaming machine 10. (See FIG. 1).

  As shown in FIG. 1, an operation button 10 </ b> B (corresponding to an “operation unit” of the present invention) that can be operated by a player and a ball tray 13 that can store a game ball are provided at the lower part of the front surface of the pachinko gaming machine 10. Is provided. A launch handle 14 is provided on the right side of the ball tray 13, and the launch handle 14 is rotated to launch a game ball from a launch device (not shown) toward the game area R. Further, the launch intensity of the game ball can be arbitrarily adjusted according to the amount of rotation operation of the launch handle 14.

  As shown in FIG. 2, an odd-shaped display window is formed through the center of the game area R of the game board 11, and a display decoration frame 20 is fitted into the display window from the front side. The display 15 on the back side of the game board 11 faces forward through the display decoration frame 20. In addition, the display decoration frame 20 protrudes from the front surface of the game board 11 and prohibits the game ball from flowing down in front of the display 15. The game area R is divided by the display decorative frame 20 into a left flow area Ra and a right flow area Rb in the left-right direction, and is divided into an upper communication passage 23 and a lower flow area Rc in the vertical direction.

  The upper surface of the lower side portion of the display decoration frame 20 is a stage 21 inclined downward from both left and right ends toward the center, and a game ball flowing down the left flow area Ra on the left side of the display decoration frame 20. Is formed on the inside of the display decorative frame 20 to form a warp path (not shown). The game ball that has passed through the warp road is released from the left end of the stage 21 and rolls left and right on the stage 21. In addition, the game ball that has finished rolling on the stage 21 flows down from the center of the stage 21 to the lower flow-down region Rc.

  In the upper part of the left-side flow-down area Ra, a ball outlet 16 for allowing a game ball fired from a launching device (not shown) to enter the game area R is provided. The upper end surface of the display decoration frame 20 is an inner guide surface 22 extending in an arc shape along the guide rail 12, and the upper communication passage 23 is between the guide rail 12 and the inner guide surface 22. It is sandwiched to form an arc shape, and connects the upper part of the left-side flow region Ra and the upper part of the right-side flow region Rb.

  The game ball launched with a relatively weak launch intensity collides with the obstacle nail provided in the display decorative frame 20 and the left flow area Ra, and flows down the left flow area Ra without entering the upper communication passage 23. On the other hand, the game ball launched with a relatively strong launch intensity passes through the upper connecting passage 23 as it is along the guide rail 12 from the ball outlet 16 and flows down in the right flow area Rb. Hereinafter, a game performed by adjusting the firing strength so that the game ball flows down the left-side down area Ra is referred to as “left-handed game”, and the launch intensity is adjusted so that the game ball flows down the right-side down area Rb. This game is called “right-handed game”.

<Left-side flow area Ra>
A plurality of obstacle nails are distributed throughout the left flow area Ra, and a windmill 17 and a plurality of general winning portions 18 are provided below the left flow area Ra. The general winning portion 18 has a pocket structure, and an open general winning opening 18A is formed on the upper surface of the general winning portion 18 so that game balls can be won one by one in the general winning opening 18A. A predetermined number of prize balls are paid out each time the general winning opening 18A is won.

<About the lower flow region Rc>
In the lower flow region Rc, a center winning portion 31 is provided immediately below the center portion of the stage 21. The center winning portion 31 has a pocket structure similar to that of the general winning portion 18 and has a center start opening 31A that is always open on the upper surface, and game balls can be won one by one in the center start opening 31A. . Each time the center start opening 31A is won, a predetermined number of prize balls are paid out. In the lower flow area Rc, a plurality of obstacle nails are arranged in a row from the windmill 17 toward the center winning portion 31, and a part of the game ball that has flowed down the left flow area Ra by the obstacle nails line. However, it is comprised so that it may go to the center starting port 31A. In addition, the flow direction of the game ball that has flowed down the right flow region Rb is restricted by the obstacle nail, the display decorative frame 20, and the like so that it hardly wins the center start port 31A.

  A special start port 33A is provided on the right side of the center winning portion 31 in the lower flow area Rc. The special start port 33A is open toward the front surface (game area R) of the game board 11, and can be opened and closed by the start port door 33T. The start port 33T is pivotable back and forth around the lower end of the special start port 33A, and is always held in an upright position to close the special start port 33A. The start opening door 33T is tilted forward to open the special start opening 33A, and the game balls can be won one by one with the start opening door 33T as a guide. Each time a game ball wins the special start port 33A, a predetermined number of prize balls are paid out.

<Regarding the right-flow region Rb>
A side winning portion 32 is provided at a lower position of the right flow region Rb. As shown in FIG. 3, the side winning portion 32 has a pocket structure similar to that of the general winning portion 18, has a side starting port 32A that is always open on the upper surface, and one game ball is placed in the side starting port 32A. You can win one by one. Each time the side start port 32A is won, a predetermined number of prize balls are paid out.

  A start gate 30 is disposed downstream of the side winning portion 32 in the right flow region Rb. The start gate 30 is arranged to be spaced diagonally to the lower right of the side winning portion 32 so that the game balls can pass through the inside vertically one by one.

  A second attacker port 35 </ b> A is provided on the downstream side of the start gate 30. The second attacker port 35A is located slightly to the left of the position just below the start gate 30 and slightly to the right from the position just below the side winning portion 32, so that a game ball that has passed through the start gate 30 can win a prize. It has become. Similarly to the special start port 33A, the second attacker port 35A is open toward the front surface (game area R) of the game board 11, and can be opened and closed by the attacker door 35T, and the attacker door 35T that has fallen to the front side. The game balls can be won one by one with the guidance (switching between the impossible or difficult state closed by the attacker door 35T and the possible or easy state where the attacker door 35T has fallen forward). The game ball that has won the second attacker port 35A is once discharged through the back side of the game board 11 into the large winning block 34 described below. In addition, a ball receiving wall 37 is provided on the right side of the second attacker port 35A, and the game ball received by the ball receiving wall 37 is delivered to the attacker door 35T that has fallen forward. Yes.

<About the grand prize block 34>
In the lower right portion of the game area R, a big winning block 34 having a guide upper surface 34B for receiving most of the game balls flowing down the right flow area Rb is provided. The guide upper surface 34B is inclined downwardly to the left, and guides the received game ball to the special start port 33A. It should be noted that the flow direction of the game ball that has flowed down the left flow area Ra is restricted by the obstacle nail, the display decorative frame 20 and the like so that the game ball hardly wins the special start port 33A.

  A portion of the guide top surface 34B of the big winning block 34 that is shifted from the second attacker port 35A toward the special start port 33A is formed with a first attacker port 34A over a range of 2 to 4 times the diameter of the game ball. Usually, it is closed by a shutter plate 34T. Thus, normally, the game ball rolls from the right end to the left end on the guide upper surface 34B and is guided to the special start port 33A as described above. Then, when the shutter plate 34T is opened so as to be retracted rearward from the front surface of the game board 11 and the first attacker port 34A is opened, the game ball that flows down the right flow region Rb and is received by the right end portion of the guide upper surface 34B. Most of the player wins the first attacker port 34A (switches to a winning impossible or difficult state closed by the shutter plate 34T and a winning possible or easy state opened so that the shutter plate 34T retracts backward).

  As shown in FIG. 3, inside the special winning block 34, a normal port 36C, a V confirmation port 36A, and an internal discharge port 35H are provided. The normal opening 36 </ b> C is disposed at the lower left position in the big winning block 34. All the game balls that have entered the big winning block 34 through the first attacker port 34A are taken into the rear side of the game board 11 from the normal port 36C. In addition, each time a game ball is taken from the first attacker port 34A through the normal port 36C to the back of the game board 11, more prize balls are paid out than when winning the general winning port 18A and the starting ports 31A, 32A, 33A. It is.

  The internal discharge port 35H is disposed obliquely above and to the right of the entry restricting member 36B. Then, the game ball won in the second attacker port 35A is discharged into the big winning block 34 from the internal discharge port 35H. The V confirmation opening 36A is arranged at a lower right position in the big winning block 34. Above the V confirmation opening 36A, a closed position where the game ball is prohibited from entering the V confirmation opening 36A and the V confirmation opening 36A. There is provided an entry restricting member 36B that moves back and forth between an open position that allows entry into the ball. Then, most of the game balls that have entered the big winning block 34 through the second attacker port 35A are taken into the rear side of the game board 11 from the V determination port 36A if the entry restricting member 36B is open. When the entry restricting member 36B is closed, the game ball that has entered the big prize block 34 through the second attacker port 35A passes over the entry restriction member 36B and moves to the left in the big prize block 34. It is taken into the back side of the game board 11 from the normal port 36C. Each time the game ball wins the second attacker port 35A and passes through either the normal port 36C or the V determination port 36A and is taken into the back of the game board 11, the general winning port 18A or the start port 31A, More prize balls are paid out than when winning a prize to 32A, 33A.

  Note that an out passage 39 that connects the right flow region Rb and the lower flow region Rc is formed in the outer edge portion along the guide rail 12 of the big winning block 34, and the side start port 32A and the second attacker port are formed. The game balls that have not won 35A and did not fall on the guide upper surface 34B pass through the out passage 39 and are collected in the out port 19 provided at the bottom of the game area R.

<About the flow path of the right flow area Rb>
A common trunk path 50 through which all of the game balls flowing down the right flow region Rb pass is provided above the right flow region Rb. The common trunk path 50 extends in the vertical direction so that only one game ball can pass, and the first trunk down path 51 and the second trunk down path 52 are bifurcated at the lower end of the common trunk path 50. Has been contacted.

  As shown in FIG. 3, a distribution member 53 is provided at a branch portion between the first trunk flow path 51 and the second trunk flow path 52. The distribution member 53 has a first guide position (state shown in FIG. 3) and a second guide position (state shown in FIG. 4) centered on a rotation axis J1 perpendicular to the front surface of the game board 11. It is possible to tilt between. Then, the distribution member 53 is switched between the first guide position and the second guide position by the weight of the game ball, and the game balls that have entered the common basic path 50 are transferred to the first basic flow path 51 and the second basic flow path 52. Automatically one ball at a time.

  The second trunk flow path 52 extends downward along the outer edge of the game area R from a branch portion with the first trunk flow path 51, and the discharge port 52 </ b> B at the lower end thereof is left toward the start gate 30. Open diagonally downward. The second trunk flow path 52 guides the game ball so as not to win the side start port 32A, and the start gate 30, the special start port 33A disposed on the downstream side, the first and second attackers. Direct to mouths 34A, 35A.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the first basic flow down path 51 extends downward from the branch part with the second basic flow down path 52 while meandering left and right, and the passing time through which the game ball passes is It is configured to be longer than the second trunk flow path 52. A side start port 32A, a special start port 33A, a start gate 30 and the like are provided on the downstream side of the first main flow down path 51.

  A ball rotation member 57 is provided in the middle of the first trunk flow path 51. As shown in FIG. 5, the ball rolling member 57 has a receiving wall 57A for receiving a game ball, and a discharge hole 57B that penetrates the receiving wall 57A in the vertical direction and allows the game balls to pass one by one. . The ball rolling member 57 can circulate the game ball around the discharge hole 57B and then roll it down to the discharge hole 57B like a so-called “Kroon”, and the game ball passes through the first basic flow path 51. Change the time irregularly.

  As shown in FIG. 6, at the lower end of the first basic flow path 51, a first guide flow path 61 for guiding the game ball to win the side start port 32A, and the game ball won the side start port 32A. The second guide flow path 62 that is directed toward the start gate 30 and the special start port 33A disposed on the downstream side of the start gate 30 communicates with the second guide flow path 62 that is guided so as not to flow (when the first guide flow path 61 does not flow down). Has been. The side start port 32A is arranged so that the game ball that has passed through the first basic flow path 51 reaches earlier than the special start port 33A, and the game ball that has reached the side start port 32A It is configured not to flow downstream by winning 32A.

  A rolling inclined surface 56 that is inclined downward to the right so that the game ball rolls is provided at the lower end of the first trunk flow path 51. An entrance 61A to the first guide flow path 61 opens upward at the rolling destination of the game ball on the rolling inclined surface 56. Further, a second guide flow path 62 extends downstream from the entrance 61A to the first guide flow path 61, and a lower end portion of the second guide flow path 62 and a lower end portion of the second trunk flow path 52 are Have joined. Here, the discharge port 62 </ b> B at the lower end of the second guide flow path 62 is disposed at a position closer to the start gate 30 than the discharge port 52 </ b> B of the second trunk flow path 52.

  A slide plate 64 is provided at the entrance 61 </ b> A to the first guide flow path 61. The slide plate 64 is linearly moved in the rolling direction on the rolling inclined surface 56, and is opened when the entrance 61A is opened as shown in FIG. 6, and closed when the entrance 61A is closed as shown in FIG. It automatically switches alternately to the state. Further, the opening / closing cycle of the slide plate 64 is set to be different from the continuous firing cycle of the game ball by the launching device (interval when the firing is continuously continued), and the game is performed when the slide plate 64 is closed. The timing of launching the game ball cannot be intentionally adjusted so that the ball passes over the entrance 61A, and the fairness of the game can be maintained. In addition, the launching device of the present embodiment is designed to launch a game ball at a rate of 0.6 seconds, and the slide plate 64 is in a disadvantageous open state at a rate of once every 0.5 seconds. It is a specification that switches to an advantageous closed state.

  As shown in FIG. 6, the side start port 32A is arranged directly below the entrance 61A to the first guide flow path 61, and most of the game balls that have fallen from the entrance 61A to the first guide flow path 61 are provided. The side start port 32A is awarded a prize. In a rare case, a game ball that falls from the entrance 61A and the side start port 32A while falling to the first guide flow path 61 from the entrance 61A enters the start gate 30 or the special start port 33A. Head.

  In addition, by providing the distribution member 53 and the slide plate 64 described above, when the side start port 32A and the center start port 31A are compared, the side start is performed regardless of the gaming state (high probability state and low probability state). The mouth 32A has a configuration in which a game ball is harder to win than the center start opening 31A.

<About right and wrong judgment rights>
When a game ball wins the start gate 30, the center start port 31A, the side start port 32A, and the special start port 33A, a right / no-go determination right is generated, and a right / no-go determination using the right / left determination right is performed. These success / failure determination will be described below.

<About the right to judge small hits>
When the game ball passes through the start gate 30, a “small hit / fail judgment right” is generated, and whether or not to perform the “small hit game” with the special start port 33A open using the small hit / fail judgment right. “Small hit / fail judgment” is performed. The determination result of the small hit / fail determination is notified by the small determination notification unit 30X (see FIG. 17) provided in a part of the display decoration frame 20. The small determination notification unit notifies the determination result of the small hitting success / failure determination after performing the small hitting notification effect over a predetermined “small determination effect period”. In addition, when the game ball passes through the start gate 30 during the “small determination effect period”, the “small hit determination right” for that amount is reserved up to a predetermined upper limit number (for example, a maximum of four). No more, “Small hit / fail judgment right” is not generated. Then, the “right hit determination right” that has been put on hold is used in the order of occurrence (old order).

<Regarding the first right / fail judgment right>
When a game ball wins in each of the center start port 31A and the side start port 32A, a first right / fail determination right is generated, and a big hit / fail determination is performed using the first right / left determination right. The result of the jackpot success / failure determination performed using the first right / failure determination right is notified by the first determination notification unit 15G (see FIG. 2) provided in the upper left part of the screen of the display 15, for example. The first determination notification unit 15G, for example, has three determination symbols that change in the range of 0 to 9 side by side, and when notifying the result of the big hit success / failure determination, the determination symbols fluctuate vertically. A notification effect of stopping display after displaying (for example, scrolling) is performed. Then, when the big win / fail determination is a win, the combination of the three determination symbols that are displayed in a stopped state becomes a hit symbol combination (for example, the number of 3 digits of the gutter) that means a win. It becomes an out-of-order symbol combination (for example, a three-digit number other than a glance) that means out-of-range. Further, while performing the determination notification effect based on the first right / fail determination right (variation display of the first determination notification unit 15G) and while performing a jackpot game described later, the center start port 31A, side start When a game ball wins in the mouth 32A, the first right / fail judgment right corresponding to that is held up to a predetermined upper limit number, for example, up to four, and the first right / fail judgment right is generated beyond that. do not do. Then, the first right / no-go determination right that is put on hold is used in the order of occurrence (the oldest order).

<About the second right and wrong judgment right>
When the game ball wins the special start port 33A, a second right / no-go judgment right is generated, and the big hit / no-go judgment is performed using the second right / no-go judgment right. The result of the big hit determination that is performed using the second right determination right is notified by the second determination notification unit 25 that is integrally provided in the lower right portion of the display decoration frame 20. In the 2nd determination alerting | reporting part 25, after performing a determination alerting | reporting effect, the result of a big hit determination is displayed. The 2nd determination alerting | reporting part 25 is the determination symbol comprised by several LED, and performs a determination alerting | reporting effect by blinking (fluctuation display) of LED. And, when the big hit success / failure determination is a win, all the LEDs are turned on after the determination notification effect, and in the case of being off, some or all of the LEDs are turned off after the determination notification effect. Become.

  When a game ball wins a special start opening 33A while performing a determination notification effect (flashing of LED) based on the second right / fail determination right and during a big hit game described later, The second right / fail judgment right is reserved up to a predetermined upper limit number, for example, a maximum of four, and the second right / fail judgment right is not generated beyond that. Then, the second right / no-go determination right that is put on hold is used in the order of occurrence (the oldest order). In addition, as described above, the determination notification effect is started using the determination result in the order of occurrence between the first determination result right and between the second determination result right, the first or second one The determination notification effect for the other right / left determination right is started regardless of whether the determination notification effect for the right / left determination right is being executed. Hereinafter, as appropriate, the determination notification effect based on the first determination result is referred to as a “first determination notification effect”, and the determination notification effect based on the second determination result is referred to as a “second determination notification effect”. "

<About the type of jackpot>
As shown in Table 1 below, there are two types of “hit / hit determination” using the first right determination right, “no bonus big hit” and “bonus with bonus”. There is only “Big Bonus with Bonus” in the “hit / no-hit determination” using the right. In other words, the probability of becoming a “hit with bonus” is 100% at the time of the second success / failure determination right (that is, the big win when winning the special start port 33A). On the other hand, the probability of becoming a “hit with bonus” at the first right / no-go decision right (that is, a big win when winning at the center start port 31A or the side start port 32A) is, for example, 1/5 (ie, 20 %), The probability of becoming “no bonus with big bonus” is set to 4/5 (that is, 80%).

  If any of the big hits shown in Table 1 is hit, a “big hit game” is executed to open the first or second attacker port 34A, 35A. The “big hit game” is composed of two rounds. In the first round, only the first attacker port 34A is opened, and in the second round, only the second attacker port 35A is opened. Further, the opening of the first and second attacker ports 34A, 35A has a predetermined opening period (for example, 15 seconds) as an upper limit, and a predetermined number (for example, 10) during the opening period. The ball will be closed as soon as the game ball wins. In addition, since it is necessary to make a right-hand hit in order to win a game ball in the first or second attacker port 34A, 35A by the above arrangement, for a player who wants more prize balls, "Right-handed game" is essential.

  During the second round, the attacker door 35T is operated in a preset manner and the second attacker port 35A is opened. In “Big Bonus with Bonus”, a game ball enters the second attacker port 35A (for example, repeating 1-second opening multiple times), while on the right, Even when a hit is made, it is normally set so that a game ball does not enter the second attacker port 35A (for example, release for one second is performed only once). In other words, during the big hit game of “no special bonus”, the setting is such that the game ball does not enter the V confirmation opening 36A substantially. Note that the movement of the entry restricting member 36B that opens and closes the V confirmation opening 36A is constant regardless of whether "bonus with bonus" or "bonus without bonus".

  Depending on whether or not the player has entered the V-determining port 36A during the big hit game, one or both of the “big hit determination probability” and the “small determination effect period length” after the big hit game are changed compared to the normal time. It is like that.

<About probability>
Regarding the “probability of determining whether or not the jackpot is hit”, there are two settings: a “high probability state” having a higher probability of winning than normal times and a “low probability state” as usual. Here, switching from the “low probability state” to the “high probability state” is called “probability change”, and the “high probability state” is called “probability change state”. In the following description, the “low probability state” will be referred to as a “non-probable variation state” as appropriate. In the present embodiment, the “decision probability to be a big hit” is set to 1/10 in the “high probability state” and 1/99 in the “low probability state”. Further, the “probability of determining a big hit” is the same for all of the center start port 31A, the side start port 32A, and the special start port 33A, but as described above, the second hit determination right, that is, the special start port The win when winning 33A is 100% with a “bonus with bonus”, whereas the first right / no-win decision right, that is, when winning at the center start port 31A or the side start port 32A. Has a 1/5 chance of a “bonus with a bonus” and a 4/5 chance of a “bonus without a bonus”. 1/10 in the high probability state and 1/99 in the low probability state. On the other hand, if winning in the center start port 31A or the side start port 32A, it is 1/50 in the high probability state and in the low probability state. 1/495 I would say.

<About time reduction>
In addition, regarding the “small determination effect period”, there are two settings: a relatively short “short time state” (for example, 1 second) and a relatively long “non-short time state” (for example, 10 seconds). In the short-time state, the execution frequency of the “small hit / fail determination” described above is higher than in the non-time-short state, and the frequency of “small hit” is also high. In addition, when a small hit is made in the short-time state, the opening time of the special start port 33A is set longer than when a small hit is made in the non-time-short state (for example, when a small hit is made in the short-time state) 2 seconds of opening for 2 seconds is repeated, and when a small hit is made in the non-short-time state, only 1-second opening is performed) Although no winning is made, if a right-handed game is played in a short time state, a large number of game balls are won at the special start opening 33A. In the present embodiment, the “probability of winning a small hit” is set to be higher in the “small hit determination” than in the non-short time state in the short-time state.

<Regarding whether or not there is a ball entering the V confirmation opening 36A>
Whether or not the “hit determination probability” and “the length of the small determination effect period (length of variation time)” are changed after the big hit game is determined by whether or not the game ball enters the V determination opening 36A during the big hit game. Determined by whether or not. Specifically, as shown in the above-mentioned Table 1, regardless of whether the right or wrong decision right is the first right decision right or the second right decision right, if the bonus hit with the bonus is made, If a game ball enters the V determination port 36A, after the big hit game, it becomes a “probability change state” and a “short time state” (hereinafter, referred to as “short time state with a certain change” as appropriate), and a game is made in the V determination port 36A. If the ball does not enter, it becomes a “short-time state” that is not a “probability change state” (hereinafter referred to as a “short-time state without probability change”). In addition, when a “big bonus without bonus” is reached, if a game ball enters the V-determining port 36A during the big hit game, a “probable change state” (hereinafter referred to as “short-time state”) that is not a “short-time state” after the big hit game. If the game ball does not enter the V confirmation opening 36A, the “normal state” which is neither “probability change state” nor “time reduction state” is obtained. These game states are determined regardless of whether the current state is the “normal state”, the “short state when there is a certain change”, the “short state when there is no certain change”, or the “non-short time certain change state”. However, the “short state when there is no certain change” only ends when the number of missed hits in the big hit determination performed before hitting the big hit is determined to reach the predetermined maximum number of big hit determinations ”.

<How to choose between left-handed and right-handed games according to the game state>
As described above, during a big hit game with “bonus with bonus”, a game ball enters the V final opening 36A if the player makes a right-hand hit. Since the opening timing of the second attacker port 35A and the opening timing of the V confirmation port 36A are set so that the ball does not enter the ball substantially, the “big hit with benefit” is set to “big hit with bonus” If this is the case, except for very rare cases, it will be in the “short state when there is a probability change”, and if it is “a big hit without a bonus” in the “big hit success determination”, it will be in the “normal state” that is neither “probable change” nor “short time” . In the “normal state”, as described above, even if a right-handed game is performed, the special start port 33A is hardly won, and the center start port 31A is easier to win than the side start port 32A. Therefore, in order to start the game in the “normal state” and make “hit / hit determination” to obtain more prize balls, perform a left-handed game aiming for winning at the center starting port 31A. Is the preferred way to hit. As a result, it is preferable to perform a right-handed game in order to win the first attacker port 34A and the second attacker port 35A when a big-hit game is executed and a big-hit game is executed.

  In addition, when winning in the “normal state” at the center start opening 31A, if the winning is “no bonus with no privilege”, the “normal state” is continued. On the other hand, if it is a “big hit with a bonus”, winning the V determination port 36A will promote the player from the “normal state” to the “short state with certainty change” after the big hit game. In the “short state with certainty change”, it becomes easier to win the special starting port 33A this time, so it is preferable to continue the right-handed game. During the right-handed game in the “short state with certainty change”, if the winning is made at the special starting port 33A and the winning is always a “big hit with a bonus”, if the winning is made at the V confirmation opening 36A, the “probable changing” The “short state when there is” will be continued. However, if winning is won by winning the side start port 32A and 4/5 of the probability is a “bonus without bonus”, the transition from “short state with probability change” to “normal state” will occur. . In other words, when winning in the side start port 32A in the “short state with certainty change”, there is no risk of shifting to the “normal state” if it is disengaged, but the risk of “shifting” increases if it is a hit. In other words, when winning in the side start port 32A in “short state with certainty”, a Russian roulette game will be executed with a 4/5 probability of “transitioning” to the “normal state”. become.

  As a result, the psychology of the player who is playing a right-handed game in the “short state with certainty” is awarded to the special start opening 33A but not to the side start opening 32A, and the side start opening 32A is If a game ball wins, it can be directed to hope that it will be missed. Further, a failure of the first right / fail judgment right in the “short state when there is a certain change” can be regarded as a “pseudo hit” that does not shift to the “normal state”.

<About the execution time of the judgment notification effect>
The execution time of the notification effect for determining whether or not the big hit determination is successful (corresponding to the “prescribed effect time” of the present invention) is set as follows according to the gaming state. For example, the execution time of the first and second determination notification effects in the “normal state” is set to 15 seconds to 180 seconds. Further, in the “short state when there is a certain change”, the execution time of the first determination notification effect is set to 80 seconds when the determination result is out of place, and is set to 2 seconds when the determination result is win. In addition, the execution time of the second determination notification effect is set to 0.7 seconds. Also, as described above, between the first and second right / left determination right, the other determination notification effect is started regardless of whether the first or second determination notification effect is being executed. When a right-handed game is being performed in the “short state with certainty”, for example, the second determination notification effect is generated a plurality of times while one outlier first determination notification effect is being performed (80 seconds). Is often executed (see FIG. 12B).

<About the relationship between the jackpot game and the judgment notification effect>
During the execution of the jackpot game based on the right or wrong determination right of one of the first or second, the determination notification effect based on the other right / fail determination right (effect by the first determination notification unit 15G or the second determination notification unit 25) Continued. That is, the first determination notification unit 15G or the second determination notification unit 25 continues to fluctuate. Then, after the jackpot game is over, the variable display is extended by the execution time of the jackpot game and then stopped. That is, the display of the determination result (prohibition display of the determination symbol) is postponed. Details will be described below.

  The execution time of the first determination notification effect is set to a predetermined first determination notification effect time (80 seconds) from the beginning, and when the variation display of the determination symbol is executed as the first determination notification effect, The effect execution time is counted, and the effect execution time is reduced from the initial first determination notification effect time. Here, when the big hit game is executed during the variation display of the determination symbol, the variation display of the determination symbol is continuously performed (the variation display that makes it appear that the variation display is continuously performed is performed. ) However, the production execution time count is interrupted. In other words, regardless of whether or not the big hit game is being executed, the first determination notification effect is executed (the change display of the determination symbol is executed), the effect execution time is counted, and the first determination is made. When the jackpot game is executed during the notification effect, the total execution time of the jackpot game is added after the initial first determination notification effect time, and the first determination notification effect time is equal to the execution time of the jackpot game. Only substantially extended. As a result, after the execution of the big hit game, the determination notification effect is extended from the initial production time by the execution time of the big hit game. According to this configuration, the success / failure determination result is not displayed during the execution of the jackpot game, and the player concentrates on the jackpot game without worrying about the outcome of the other determination notification effect. Can do. FIGS. 8 to 12 show the concept related to the interruption of the effect execution time count. 8 to 11, for convenience of explanation, the ratio of the execution time of the determination notification effect of the second success / failure determination right with respect to the execution time of the determination / notification effect of the first right / failure determination right is larger than the actual ratio. Yes.

  In addition, the determination notification effect according to the present embodiment continues the determination notification effect based on the other right / no-go determination right during execution of the big hit game based on either the first / second right / left determination right. Although it is configured to interrupt only the execution time count, it is not always necessary to have the same configuration as in the present embodiment, for example, when the performance execution time count is interrupted, the other determination notification effect is also interrupted at the same time, or Stop (turn off the displayed variable display mode or make a temporary stop state, etc.), resume the determination notification effect interrupted simultaneously with the resumption of the performance execution time, or execute a new determination notification effect You may comprise.

  Here, if the big hit game based on the second right / fail judgment right is started while performing the first judgment notification effect of losing, the first determination notification effect is extended by the execution time of the big hit game. Accordingly, the digestion of the first right / fail decision right that is held can be delayed. In particular, in the case of “short state when there is a certain change” and “hit” is included in the first right / fail judgment right held, the current “ There is a possibility that the “short state when there is a certain change” will “shift” to the “normal state”. Therefore, it is possible to delay the arrival of a pinch that can be shifted to the “normal state” by assigning a hit with the second right / fail judgment right in the “short state when there is a certain change”.

<About deduplication per hit>
As shown in FIG. 8 and FIG. 9, during the execution time of the determination notification effect based on the right / fail determination right (that is, the determination notification effect performed immediately before the big hit game) with which the determination result is a win, the other right / left determination right When the determination notification effect based on is started, the determination result of the determination notification effect based on the other right / fail determination right is always controlled to be forcibly removed (in this embodiment, the determination is not performed) Configured to be out of place). This prevents the occurrence of a situation in which the jackpot game with the other right / wrong determination right must be started while the big hit game based on the first / second right / wrong determination right is executed. Whether the first and second right / no-go judgments are used immediately after being generated or withheld, whether or not the first and second right / no-right judgment right is hit immediately after the occurrence is determined in advance.

  Also, as shown in FIG. 10 and FIG. 11, the big hit game is started without interruption of the determination notification effect based on the other right / left decision right, and the first and second right / left right decision rights are executed during the execution of the big hit game. When both of the holdings are in a state of being aligned, the determination notification effect is performed in the order of the first winning / failing determination right and the second winning / failing determination right after the jackpot game ends, regardless of which holding has occurred first. It is controlled to be started. At this time, if the big success / failure determination of the first success / failure determination right is a win, a big hit game is performed based on the hit, and the determination result of the determination notification effect based on the second right / failure determination right is an actual success / failure result. Is forcibly removed without regard. Thereby, when it comes to the situation where the determination notification effects of both the first and second right-and-left determination right can be started after the big hit game, it is possible to give the player a thrilling feeling.

  In addition, the gaming state does not shift from the “short state with probability change” to the “normal state” in the second winning / deciding right, but the gaming state is “probable changing” in the first winning / deciding right. Since there is a possibility of transition from the “short state with presence” to the “normal state”, it becomes a situation in which the determination notification effect of both the first and second right / no-go judgment right can be started in the “short state with certain change”. In addition, the gaming state can be easily changed.

<Regarding the production in the short state with certainty>
As described above, when a right-handed game is being performed in the “short state with certainty”, the second determination notification effect is executed a plurality of times while one outlier first determination notification effect is being performed. Therefore, it is possible that the big hit game based on the second right / fail determination right is performed a plurality of times while one outlier first determination notification effect is performed. In other words, while one outlier first determination notification effect is being performed in the “short state with certain change”, it is a “specific hit state” in which a big hit game based on the second right / fail judgment right can be executed a plurality of times. Can be considered. In addition, the “special hit game” of the present invention is composed of a big hit game based on a plurality of second success / failure determination rights executed in one “specific hit state”.

  Here, in the pachinko gaming machine 10 of the present embodiment, an “operation effect” and a “special effect” are performed in order to make it easier to recognize that it is in the “specific hit state”. Below, the flow of a series of those effects is demonstrated.

  First, in the “normal state”, winning is made at the center start opening 31A (see FIG. 12 (A)) and a big hit game is played (see FIG. 12 (B)). After that, for example, the first determination notification effect of detachment is started (see FIG. 12C). During the execution of the first determination notification effect that is out of place, the second determination notification effect (0.7 seconds) whose execution time is shorter than the first determination notification effect (80 seconds) is performed a plurality of times. Then, the big hit game based on the second right / fail judgment right is started.

  At this time, an opening for a predetermined time is provided from when the second determination notification effect is stopped and displayed until the jackpot game is started, and an “operation effect” is performed at this opening (in FIG. 16). * 1). In the “operation effect”, first, as shown in FIG. 12D, three operation suggestion images 15S suggesting that the operation button 10B is operated are displayed side by side. When the player operates the operation button 10B, the operation suggestion image 15S is replaced with characters one by one. In this embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 13A to 13C, the left operation suggestion image 15 </ b> S is replaced with the characters “Bow” in the first operation, and the operation suggestion image in the second operation is displayed. 15S is replaced with the letters “na”, and the right operation suggestion image 15S is replaced with the letters “su” in the third operation. That is, when the operation button 10B is operated three times, the characters “bonus” are aligned on the display 15.

  After that, the big hit game based on the second right / fail judgment right is started, and as shown in FIG. 13D, the characters “bonus time” indicating the “special hit state” are displayed on the display 15. The “special effect” is started (* 2 in FIG. 16). In this “special effect”, the number of executions of the jackpot game is displayed as “1 time”, “2 times”, “3 times”, etc., each time the jackpot game is played. Is performed. Then, at the end of the first determination notification effect of detachment, the determination symbol of the first determination notification unit 15G is stopped and displayed with a combination of detachment (see FIG. 14A), and the characters “bonus time end” are displayed. This completes the “special performance” (* 3 in FIG. 16). Although not shown, in the “special effect”, the background color changes to blue, green, and red with the passage of time, and the end of the “special effect” (that is, the first determination notification effect of detachment). It is suggested that (end) is approaching.

  In other words, in the present embodiment, during the first determination notification effect of one outlier, the “operation effect” is performed when the big hit game based on the second right / fail determination right for the first time is started, and thereafter The “special effect” is performed until the end of the determination notification effect. In the present embodiment, the period during which one outlier first determination notification effect is executed corresponds to the “special period” of the present invention.

  When the first determination notification effect of the first time is completed, the next determination notification effect of the first right / fail determination right is started. When the first right / no-go determination right is also outside, the “operation effect” and the “special effect” described above are performed again (see FIGS. 14B to 14D), and the first determination notification unit 15G The judgment symbol is stopped and displayed with a combination of detachment.

  Then, the determination notification effect of the next first determination result is started, but when the first determination result is “no bonus”, immediately after the determination notification effect starts, “ An “operation effect” is performed (see FIG. 15A, * 4 in FIG. 16). In the “operation effect” at this time, as shown in FIG. 15B, the right operation suggestion image 15S becomes “x” and the characters “bonus” are not aligned, and the “special effect” is not performed. It is suggested. After that, the determination symbol of the first determination notification unit 15G is stopped and displayed in the winning combination (see FIG. 15C), and after the big hit game based on the first right / fail determination right is performed, the gaming state is “normal state” ”.

  Thereafter, the “operation effect” (operation effect performed during the first determination notification effect of losing) in which the characters “bonus” are aligned is referred to as “operation effect (success)”, while the characters “bonus” are not aligned. The “operation effect” (the operation effect performed during the first determination and notification effect) is identified as “operation effect (failure)”. The “operation effect (success)” corresponds to the “start effect” of the present invention. Further, the configuration may be such that “operation effect (failure)” is performed only when the determination result of the first success / failure determination right is “no per privilege”, or “no per privilege” The configuration may be such that “operation effect (failure)” is performed both in the case of “winning”.

  Further, in the present embodiment, during the execution of the first determination notification effect, the “operation effect” to be performed next becomes “operation effect (success)” in which the characters “bonus” are aligned (that is, the first effect effect). The notice lamp effect is given in which the next hold of the right / no-go judgment right is released by the notice lamp 15L. Specifically, in the “short state when there is a certain change”, a warning lamp 15L consisting of the characters {CHANCE} is displayed at the lower left of the display 15, and the warning lamp 15L becomes brighter or darker so that a warning is given. A lamp production is performed. Below, based on FIGS. 12-16, a series of flow of a notice lamp effect is demonstrated. In the following description, when the warning lamp 15L is displayed in a bright state and when it changes from a dark state to a bright state is referred to as “lighting”, it is displayed in a dark state and changes from a bright state to a dark state. This is called “lights out”. In FIG. 13C and the like, the “light-off” state is indicated by hatching.

  First, when a “short state with certain change” is entered and the first determination notification effect is started for the first time, if the determination result of the first determination notification effect is out of sync, a notice lamp is displayed together with the start of display of the variation of the determination symbol. 15L is displayed in a lighted state (see FIG. 12C, * 5 in FIG. 16). Thereafter, when the “operation effect (success)” is performed and the characters “bonus” are aligned, the notice lamp 15L is turned off as shown in FIG.

  Thereafter, a “special effect” is performed. At this time, if the first determination of right / no-go determination (hereinafter referred to as “next hold”) is made, the determination of whether or not the next determination is made and the start of the “special effect”, FIG. As shown in (D), the warning lamp 15L is lit again (* 6 in FIG. 16).

  The notice lamp 15L continues to be lit even after the first determination notification effect is finished and the next off-first determination notification effect is started (FIGS. 14A and 14B). As shown in FIG. 14 (C), at the timing when the “operation effect (success)” ends (the timing when the characters “bonus” are aligned).

  Thereafter, a “special effect” is performed. At this time, if the first right / no-go determination right for the next hold is a win, the warning lamp 15L remains off without being re-lighted (FIG. 14D). reference). Further, while the winning determination notification effect is being executed, the warning lamp 15L is kept off without being relighted (see FIG. 15).

  In other words, in the notice lamp effect, the notice lamp 15L is turned on when the first determination notification effect is released with the notice lamp 15L turned off. The notice lamp 15L is turned off when the “operation effect (success)” is performed and the characters “bonus” are aligned (that is, when it is notified that the result of the “operation effect” is “success”). Is done. When the first determination notification effect of the next change is out of the way, that is, when the “operation effect” to be performed next is also “operation effect (success)”, the notice lamp 15L is displayed at the start of the “special effect”. On the other hand, when the first determination notification effect of the next change is a win, that is, when the “operation effect” to be performed next becomes “operation effect (failure)”, the warning lamp 15L is relighted. It remains off.

  With the above configuration, the notice lamp indicates that the “operation effect” to be performed next becomes “operation effect (success)”, that is, the “special effect” suggesting the “specific hit state” is performed. It becomes possible to give a notice by lighting 15L. Note that the notice lamp 15L is turned on together with the start of the “special effect” after the “operation effect (success)” ends, which corresponds to the “notice effect” of the present invention.

<About the action and effect in the pachinko gaming machine 10 of this embodiment>
The above is description other than the control flow of the pachinko gaming machine 10 of the present embodiment. Next, actions and effects in the pachinko gaming machine 10 of the present embodiment will be described, and then the control flow will be described in detail.

  According to the pachinko gaming machine 10 of the present embodiment, when winning at the side start opening 32A, it may not be a “big hit with bonus”, but at the special start opening 33A, it was won. In this case, it will always be a “Big Bonus with Bonus”, that is, the winning probability of the “Big Bonus with Bonus” will be different between the special start port 33A and the side start port 32A. Thus, it is possible to improve the preference as compared with the case where the winning probability of the “bonus with bonus” is the same.

  Here, in the pachinko gaming machine 10 according to the present embodiment, as described above, during the first determination notification effect of one outlier, after the first jackpot game with the second right / fail determination right is started, The “special effect” is continuously performed until the first determination notification effect is finished. As a result, a series of “special effects” are executed over a number of big hit games based on the second right / no-go decision right. Can be improved.

  Further, it is possible to make the player feel that the game of “specific hit state” has been performed once during the first determination notification effect of one off.

  Moreover, by executing the “operation effect (success)” before the “special effect”, the division of the “special effect” can be easily understood, and the “success” can be performed by performing the operation on the “operation effect”. By doing so, it is possible to make the player feel that the game of “specific hit state” has started, and to feel a sense of excitement.

  Further, the warning lamp 15L is turned on to indicate that the “operation effect” to be performed next is “operation effect (success)”, that is, that a “special effect” is suggested to suggest that the “specific hit state” is to be performed. Since the notice lamp effect for notifying is performed by this, when the notice lamp 15L is lit, the player can feel a sense of expectation.

  In addition, when the first determination notification effect of detachment continues, the notice lamp 15L that has been lit until the end of the previous “operation effect” immediately after the end of the “operation effect” (at the start of the “special effect”) ) Since the display is re-lighted, the player can feel when the “operation effect” continues to the “operation effect (success)”, and the player can feel a sense of excitement. In addition, since the probability that the first right / fail judgment right is lost is considerably higher than the probability that it is a hit (it is 9/10 in the probability variation state), the first determination notification effect of losing is likely to continue. The notice lamp 15L is likely to be turned on again.

  By the way, in a general pachinko gaming machine, the attacker port (the first attacker port 34A and the second attacker port 35A in the present embodiment) is opened a plurality of times during one big hit game, but it is opened. The number of times is expressed as a so-called “round”. For this reason, as in this embodiment, the number of executions of the jackpot game is counted up and displayed by counting up and displaying the number of executions of the jackpot game that is executed during the first determination notification effect that is one off in the “special effect”. Can be felt as a so-called “round” count, and the player can feel the game during the “special effect” as if it was a single big hit game. In the following, what makes a game in a “special effect” feel like a big hit game is called a “pseudo big hit game” in order to distinguish it from a real big hit game.

  In addition, since there are two types of “operation effect (success)” in which the “operation effect” performed before the “special effect” is the “operation effect (success)” in which the characters “bonus” are aligned, When (Success) is performed, it can be felt that the “operation effect” lottery has been won, and as a result of the “operation effect” lottery, the player is made to execute a pseudo jackpot game. Can make you feel. Further, as described above, since the first determination notification effect of losing is easy to continue, the “operation effect (success)” is easy to be executed continuously, and it is made to feel that the “operation effect” lottery has been won continuously. be able to.

<About the electrical configuration of the pachinko gaming machine 10>
Next, electrical control of the pachinko gaming machine 10 will be described. As shown in FIG. 17, the pachinko gaming machine 10 includes a main control board 60 on which a CPU 60A, a RAM 60B and a ROM 60C are mounted, and a sub control board 70 on which a CPU 70A, a RAM 70B and a ROM 70C are mounted. The CPU 60A of the main control board 60 executes the main process PG1 shown in FIG. 18, and the CPU 70A of the sub control board 70 executes the main process PG2 shown in FIG. 46 to control the game. In the following description, the “small determination notification unit” in the above configuration is referred to as “ordinary symbol”, and the “first determination notification unit 15G” in the above configuration is referred to as “special symbol 1 (special symbol 1)”. The “second determination notification unit 25” in the above configuration is referred to as “special figure 2 (special symbol 2)”. The “determination notification effect” for each symbol is called “fluctuation”. The “bonus without bonus” and the “bonus with bonus” are collectively referred to as “hit”.

  As shown in FIG. 18, in the main process PG1, after the pachinko gaming machine 10 is powered on, the initial setting (S1) is performed, and then interrupt prohibition (S2), random number counter update process (S3), and interrupt permission (S4) are performed. ) Is repeated to enter a loop. Each time the random number counter update process (S3) is executed in the loop, a plurality of random number generation counters having an upper limit value and a lower limit value are updated. When the upper limit value is reached, the update is repeated by returning to the lower limit value. It is. Further, since the upper limit values of the plurality of random number generation counters are different from each other, the counter values of the random number generation counters are different from each other.

  The CPU 60A of the main control board 60 executes the main control board interrupt process (S5) by interrupting the loop of the main process PG1 at a predetermined cycle (for example, 4 msec cycle). . As shown in FIG. 19, in the main control board interrupt process (S5), first, a command process (S10) is performed. In the command process (S10), various commands stored in the output buffer of the main control board 60 by each process described below are output to the sub-control board 70 and the like.

  The normal symbol / special symbol main random number update process (S11) performed next is the same as the random number counter update process (S3) performed in the loop process of the main control board main program PG1 described above. That is, the update processing of various counter values is performed within the execution period of the main control board interrupt process (S5) and the remaining process period (after the main control board interrupt process (S5) is finished, the next main control board interrupt The period until the process (S5) is started).

<About the process at the time of winning>
Following the normal symbol / special symbol main random number update process (S11), the start winning a prize opening switch detection process (S12) is executed. In the start winning opening switch detection process (S12), when a game ball passes through the start gate 30, a random number for determining a normal figure is acquired and stored in the RAM 60B, and the game ball is stored in the center start port 31A and the side start port 32A. Is won and stored in the RAM 60B. When a game ball wins the special start port 33A, a random number for determining the special figure 2 is acquired and stored in the RAM 60B. The Note that the special symbol-related random number storage area of the RAM 60B can store up to “4”, which is the upper limit of the number of special symbols related random numbers acquired at the time of winning a prize.

<Regarding determination of success / failure based on normal symbols and opening / closing control of prize opening>
As shown in FIG. 19, the normal operation process (S13) is performed after the start winning a prize opening switch detection process (S12). In this process (S13), a “small hit determination” is performed as to whether or not “small hit game” is to be performed based on a random number value for determining whether or not “normal hit” is determined on the condition that the start gate 30 is passed. Is “small hit”, the start port door 33T provided in the special start port 33A is opened and closed. At this time, the opening / closing time or the like of the start door 33T differs depending on whether or not it is in a time-short state.

<Regarding the control of determination of success / failure by special symbol>
As shown in FIG. 19, after the normal operation process (S13), the special operation process (S14) is performed. This process (S14) is shown in FIG. 20, and the special figure 1 operational status representing the operational state according to the special figure 1 and the special figure 2 operational status representing the operational state according to the special figure 2 are determined, and the jackpot If it is in operation, the special figure 1 big hit operation process (S131A) or the special figure 2 big hit operation process (S131B) is executed. When the big hit operation is not being performed, the fluctuation process and jackpot determination process (S135) in FIG. 1 and the fluctuation process and jackpot determination process (S140) in FIG.

  Specifically, it is first determined whether or not a big hit operation is being performed (S130). When the big hit operation is being performed (Yes in S130), when the big hit operation according to the special figure 1 is being executed, the special figure 1 big hit operation processing (S131A) is executed, and when the big hit operation according to the special figure 2 is being executed. Executes the special figure 2 big hit operation process (S131B) and exits this process (S14). Note that the big hit operation according to the special figure 1 and the big hit action according to the special figure 2 do not occur simultaneously. When the big hit operation is not being performed (No in S130), it is determined whether or not the special figure 2 is “big hit confirmed” (whether the special figure 2 operation status is “3”) (S132). If the special figure 2 is not “big hit confirmed” (No in S132), it is determined whether or not the special figure 1 is changing (whether the special figure 1 operation timer is “0”) (S133). When the special figure 1 is changing (No in S133), the special figure 1 operation timer (fluctuation time of the special figure 1) is subtracted (in this embodiment, 4 [ms] is subtracted) (S134). Next, after the determination in step S133 becomes Yes (when the special figure 1 is not changing) and after the special figure 1 operation timer is subtracted (S134), the special figure 1 fluctuation operation process (S135) is performed. Run. At this time, the operation status of Special Figure 1 is any one of “0” to “3”. Next, it is determined whether or not a big hit operation is being performed (S136). If a big hit operation is being performed (Yes in S136), the processing (S14) is exited.

  After the determination in step S132 is Yes (when special figure 2 is “big hit confirmed”), and after special figure 1 variable action processing (S135), the big hit is not being performed (No in S136). It is determined whether or not the special figure 1 is “big hit confirmed” (whether or not the special figure 1 operation status is “3”) (S137), and if the special figure 1 is “big hit confirmed” (S137) In Yes), this process (S14) is exited. When the special figure 1 is not “big hit confirmed” (No in S137), it is determined whether or not the special figure 2 is changing (whether or not the special figure 2 operation timer is “0”) (S138). When the special figure 2 is changing (No in S138), the special figure 2 operation timer is subtracted by 4 [ms] (S139). Next, after the determination in step S138 becomes Yes (when the special figure 2 is not changing) and after the special figure 2 operation timer is subtracted (S139), the special figure 2 fluctuation operation process (S140) is performed. Run. At this time, the operation status of the special figure 2 is any one of “0” to “3”. Thereafter, the process exits (S14).

  By adopting such a processing configuration, when a special hit is generated in one special figure while simultaneously changing the special figure 1 and the special figure 2, the other is from the big hit determination to the end of the big hit operation. Because the fluctuation of the special figure is extended (it is configured so that the fluctuation does not end by not measuring the fluctuation time, and the next pass / fail judgment is not performed if the fluctuation does not end), both This makes it possible to prevent a big hit from occurring. Further, it is possible to preferentially process the jackpot determination of special figure 1 over the jackpot determination of special chart 2.

<About whether or not to use special symbol 1>
In the special figure 1 fluctuation operation process (S135) shown in FIG. 21, the special figure 1 operation status is determined (S150), and the process branches. When the special figure 1 operation status is “0” (“0” in S150), a special figure 1 standby process (S151) is performed, and when the special figure 1 operation status is “1” (“1” in S150). ) Performs a special figure 1 variation process (S152). When the special figure 1 operation status is "2"("2" in S150), a special figure 1 deviation confirmation process (S153) is performed. When the operation status is “3” (“3” in S150), special figure 1 big hit determination processing (S154) is performed. Hereinafter, each of these processes (S151, S152, S153, S154) will be described in order.

  In the special figure 1 standby process (S151) shown in FIG. 22, when the special figure 1 hold exists, the information on the old special special figure 1 hold is used to determine the jackpot according to the special figure 1 and the special bonus. Information necessary for the variable display in FIG. 1 is set, and when there is no hold in FIG. 1, a standby screen is set. Specifically, first, it is determined whether or not there is a special figure 1 hold (whether or not the special figure 1 hold ball number is not "0") (S200). If there is no suspension in FIG. 1 (No in S200), it is checked whether the display 15 is in a standby screen (for example, a standby flag is ON) (S201). If the screen is a standby screen (Yes in S201), the process immediately exits the process (S151). If the screen is not a standby screen (No in S201), a standby screen setting process (S202. For example, a standby flag is set). ON), the process exits (S151).

  If there is a special figure 1 hold (Yes in S200), whether the special figure 2 is in a fluctuation that is a hit / fail judgment result (hereinafter referred to as a big hit fluctuation) (the special figure 2 big hit flag is ON). (S203). When the special figure 2 is changing the big hit (Yes in S203), the special figure 1 big hit flag is turned OFF (S204). That is, all the special figure 1 retaining balls digested during the big hit fluctuation of special figure 2 are forcibly removed. When the special figure 2 is not changing the big hit (No in S203), the special figure 1 big hit determination process (S205) is performed.

  As shown in FIG. 23, in the special figure 1 big hit determination process (S205), first, for special figure 1 determination acquired (stored in the random number storage area of the RAM) at the time of winning the center start port 31A or the side start port 32A. A random value is loaded (S300). Next, it is checked whether or not the current state is a high probability state (S301). If the current state is not a high probability state (No in S301), the random number value for determining the special figure 1 matches the determination value in the low probability state. It is checked whether or not “big hit” (S302). When the random number value for determining the special figure 1 does not match any of the determination values, that is, when it is “out” (No in S302), the special figure 1 big hit flag is turned off (S303). The process (S205) is exited. In the case of a high probability state (Yes in S301), it is checked whether or not the random number value for determining the special figure 1 is a “big hit” that matches any of the determination values in the high probability state (S304). . If the random number value for determining the special figure 1 does not match any of the determination values, that is, if it is “out” (No in S304), the special figure 1 big hit flag is turned OFF (S305). The process (S205) is exited. As described above, the probability of winning a “big hit” from winning the center start port 31A and the side start port 32A is 1/10 in the high probability state and 1/99 in the low probability state.

  On the other hand, in each step S302, S304, if the random number value for determining the special figure 1 matches the predetermined determination value, that is, if “big hit” is won (Yes in S302 or Yes in S304), FIG. 1 The big hit flag is turned ON (S306), and it is determined whether or not the type of “big hit” is “hit with bonus” that allows the game ball to pass through the V confirmation opening 36A. Setting is made (S307). Specifically, for example, when the jackpot symbol random number is a predetermined value, it is determined that the bonus game is a bonus game with a bonus, and when it is other than the value, it is determined that it is not a bonus game with a bonus game. In the case of “bonus with bonus”, the second jackpot flag is turned on, and when it is not “hit with bonus” (“bonus without bonus”), the second jackpot flag is turned off. Thereafter, the process exits (S205). In this embodiment, in step S307, it is set so as to be determined as a “hit with bonus” with a probability of 20%.

<Determination of changes in special symbol 1>
As shown in FIG. 22, after step S204 and the special figure 1 big hit determination process (S205), the determination symbol to be stopped and displayed on the first determination notification unit 15G is determined based on a random number for determining symbols such as a big hit symbol random number value. Special figure 1 selection process (S206), based on the result of big hit determination, the presence or absence of reach, etc. Special figure 1 for selecting data related to the variation display mode (including the variation time) until the determination symbol is stopped and displayed The variation mode selection process (S207) is sequentially performed, and the variation content of the special symbol 1 is determined.

  Here, the variation time of “probability big hit” set in step S342 is 2 seconds, the variation time of “probability deviation out of reach” and “out of probability change reach” set in steps S344 and S345 is 80 seconds, step S347, The fluctuation time of “normal big hit”, “out of normal reach”, and “out of normal reach” set in S349 and S350 is set to 15 to 180 seconds.

<Regarding advancement of special symbol 1>
As shown in FIG. 22, following the special figure 1 variation mode selection process (S207), a special figure 1 random number shift process (S208) is performed. In this process (S208), after processing the information on the hold of the oldest special figure 1, the process of raising the information on the other special figure 1 is carried out. Specifically, 1 is subtracted from the number of special figure 1 reserved balls, and various random numbers stored in the random number storage area corresponding to the special figure 1 reserved memory in the RAM are shifted one by one to the lower random number storage area. The uppermost (fourth) random number storage area is cleared.

<Regarding control of fluctuations in special symbol 1>
As shown in FIG. 22, after the special figure 1 random number shift process (S208), the special figure 1 fluctuation start process (S209) is performed. In the special figure 1 fluctuation start process (S209), the fluctuation time of the fluctuation aspect selected in the special figure 1 fluctuation aspect selection process (S207) is set in the special figure 1 fluctuation start command, and the special figure 1 fluctuation start command is stored in the RAM. Set to output buffer.

In the time reduction count subtraction determination process (S211), the time reduction count is subtracted using the time reduction counter set in the case of the low probability state and the time reduction state, and the time reduction state is set when the time reduction counter becomes “0”. finish. Thereafter, the special figure 1 standby process (S151) is exited. The above is the description of the special figure 1 standby process (S151).

  Next, the special figure 1 fluctuation process (S152) in the special figure 1 fluctuation operation process (S135) (see FIG. 21) will be described with reference to FIG. In this process (S152), after the fluctuation display of the special figure 1 is finished, if the result of the judgment of special figure 1 is out of place, the special figure 1 operation status is set to "determined out", and in the case of a big hit Sets the operation status of Special Figure 1 to “Final Hit”. Specifically, first, it is determined whether or not special figure 1 is changing (whether or not the special figure 1 operation timer is “0”) (S380), and if it is changing (No in S380). This process (S152) is exited. When the special figure 1 is not changing (Yes in S380), the basic setting of the confirmation process (for example, setting of the special figure 1 operation timer) is performed, and the special figure 1 operation status is set to "2 (determined to be out)". (S381). Next, it is determined whether or not the special figure 1 big hit flag is ON (S382). If the special figure 1 big hit flag is not ON (No in S382), the process (S152) is exited. If the special figure 1 big hit flag is ON (Yes in S382), the special figure 1 operation status is set to "3 (big hit confirmed)" (S383), and this process (S152) is exited.

In this process (S153), after the deviation variation is confirmed, a process for returning the operation status of FIG. 1 to “standby” is performed. Specifically, first, it is determined whether or not a predetermined time has elapsed (whether or not the special figure 1 operation timer is “0”) (S390), and if it has not elapsed (No in S390). , The process exits (S153). When the predetermined time has elapsed (Yes in S390), the basic setting of the standby process is performed, and “0 (standby)” is set in the operation status of FIG. 1 (S391), and the process exits (S153).

  Next, the special figure 1 big hit determination process (S154) in the special figure 1 fluctuation operation process (S135) (see FIG. 21) will be described based on FIG. In this process (S154), after determining the big hit variation, the special figure 1 operation status is set to "big hit start". Specifically, first, it is determined whether or not a predetermined time has elapsed (whether or not the special figure 1 operation timer is “0”) (S400), and if it has not elapsed (No in S400). , The process exits (S154). When the predetermined time has elapsed (Yes in S400), the jackpot operation is set, such as setting a jackpot opening command (hereinafter referred to as “hits OP command” as appropriate) in the RAM output buffer, and the special figure 1 jackpot The flag is turned OFF, the special figure 1 operation status is set to “4 (big hit start)” (S401), and this process (S154) is exited.

<About whether or not you are using special symbol 2>
Next, the variation operation process of FIG. 2 will be described with reference to FIGS. The special movement process of special figure 2 is that the parameters to be referenced and set are related to special figure 2 and that the special symbol and fluctuation mode selection process (S506, S507) is different from that of special figure 1. For example, it is the same as the variation operation process of the special figure 1 shown in FIGS.

  In the special figure 2 fluctuation operation process (S140) shown in FIG. 27, the special figure 2 operation status is determined (S160), and the process branches. When the special figure 2 operation status is “0” (“0” in S160), a special figure 2 standby process (S161) is performed, and when the special figure 2 operation status is “1” (“1” in S160). ) Performs a special figure 2 variation process (S162). When the special figure 2 operation status is "2" ("2" in S160), a special figure 2 deviation confirmation process (S163) is performed. When the operation status is “3” (“3” in S160), a special figure 2 big hit determination process (S164) is performed. Hereinafter, each of these processes (S161, S162, S163, S164) will be described in order.

  In the special figure 2 standby process (S161) shown in FIG. 28, if there is a special figure 2 hold, the information of the oldest special figure 2 hold is used to determine the jackpot and special special figure by special figure 2. Information necessary for the variable display of FIG. 2 is set, and when there is no hold in FIG. 2, a standby screen is set. Specifically, it is first determined whether or not there is a special figure 2 hold (whether the special figure 2 hold ball number is not “0”) (S500). If there is no hold in FIG. 2 (No in S500), it is checked whether or not the display 15 is in a standby screen (for example, a standby flag is ON) (S501). If the screen is a standby screen (Yes in S501), the process immediately exits the process (S161). On the other hand, if the screen is not a standby screen (No in S501), a standby screen setting process (S502. For example, a standby flag is set). ON) and then exit this process (S161).

  If the special figure 1 is on hold (Yes in S500), it is determined whether or not the special figure 1 is undergoing a big hit change (whether or not the special figure 1 big hit flag is ON) (S503). When the special figure 1 is changing the big hit (Yes in S503), the special figure 2 big hit flag is turned OFF (S504). That is, all the special figure 2 holding balls digested during the big hit fluctuation of special figure 1 are forcibly removed. When the special figure 1 big hit flag is not ON (No in S503), a special figure 2 big hit determination process (S505) is performed.

<About the setting of the jackpot operation and control of the top prize winning opening>
In the upper-award winning mouth process (S170, S180) shown in FIG. 35, after the game ball has won the second attacker mouth 35A (denoted as the “upper-award winning mouth” in the flowchart), the V confirmation opening 36A (in the flowchart). Judgment is made as to whether or not it has passed (denoted as “probability variation region”). Specifically, first, it is determined whether or not the second attacker port 35A can win a prize (whether the big hit is being performed and the round counter is “2”) (S710), and the second attacker port 35A is not able to win a prize. (No in S710) exits this process (S170, S180). When the second attacker port 35A can win a prize (Yes in S710), a probability variation region solenoid operation process (S711) is executed.

  In the probability variation region solenoid operation process (S711) shown in FIG. 36, setting whether or not to perform the opening / closing operation of the entry restricting member 36B (denoted as “probability variation region solenoid” in the flowchart) and the passage of the V determination port 36A is performed. I do. After the start of the big hit game, the entry restricting member 36B performs an opening / closing operation over time that is not linked to the opening / closing state of the attacker door 35T. Further, whether or not to detect the passage of the V determination port 36A is also changed over time. Table 2 summarizes the opening / closing operation and detection determination. Validity / invalidity of the open / close state and detection determination is determined by the probability variation region operation counter, and the probability variation region operation counter is counted up when the probability variation region execution time elapses.

  The probability variation region solenoid operation process (S711) shown in FIG. 36 will be described in detail. In the probability variation region solenoid operation process (S711), first, a probability variation region operation counter is loaded from the RAM (S720), and whether or not the operation of the entry restricting member 36B has been completed (whether the probability variation region operation counter is "10" or more). (S721), and when the operation of the entry restricting member 36B has been completed (Yes in S721), the process exits (S711). When the entry restricting member 36B is operating (No in S721), it is determined whether or not there is a remaining time for the current operation (whether or not the probability variation region execution time is not “0”) (S722). If there is time (Yes in S721), the process exits (S711). If there is no remaining time for the current operation (No in S722), the probability variation region operation counter is incremented by 1 (S723), and the probability variation region operation counter after the addition is loaded from the RAM (S724). Next, it is determined whether or not the V determination port 36A detects the passage of the game ball (whether or not the passage determination corresponding to the probability variation area operation counter is valid) (S725), and if not detected (No in S725). , The process exits (S711). When the V confirmation opening 36A detects the passing of the game ball (Yes in S725), the probability variation area valid flag is turned on (S726), and the process (S711) is exited.

  Returning to FIG. 35, in the upper-award winning mouth processing (S170, S180), following the probability variation area solenoid operation processing (S711), whether or not the game ball has passed through the V confirmation opening 36A (whether or not the probability variation region switch has been detected). (S712). If it has not passed through the V determination port 36A (No in S712), the process (S170, S180) is exited. When the game ball has passed through the V determination port 36A (Yes in S712), it is determined whether or not the V determination port 36A detects the passage of the game ball (whether or not the probability variation area valid flag is ON) (S713). ), When the passage of the game ball is not detected (No in S713), the process (S170, S180) is exited. When the V determination port 36A detects the passing of the game ball (Yes in S713), the probability variation area passing flag is turned ON (S714), and the process (S170, S180) is exited. That is, the game ball passing through the V determination port 36A is effective only when the game ball passes through the V determination port 36A and the V determination port 36A is in a state of detecting the passage of the game ball.

  Next, the special figure 1 big hit start process (S172) in the special figure 1 big hit operation process (S131A) (see FIG. 33) and the special figure 2 big hit start process in the special figure 2 big hit operation process (S131B) (see FIG. 34) (S182) will be described with reference to FIG. In this process (S172, S182), the round setting of the big hit game and the setting of the big winning opening corresponding to the round are performed. Specifically, it is first determined whether or not the opening time has ended (whether or not a predetermined time set in the jackpot opening command has elapsed since the start of the jackpot opening) (S730). If the opening time has not ended (No in S730), the process (S172, S182) is exited. When the opening time is over (Yes in S730), a round setting process (S731) is performed.

  As shown in FIG. 38, in the round setting process (S731), first, it is determined whether or not a round remains (whether or not the number of effective rounds is 1 or more) (S740). If no round remains (S740). No), this process (S731) is exited. When the round remains (Yes in S740), 1 is added to the number of rounds (S741), 1 is subtracted from the effective number of rounds (S742), and the process (S731) is exited. In the present embodiment, the initial value of the number of rounds is set to “0”, and the initial value of the number of effective rounds is set to “2”.

  As shown in FIG. 37, next to the round setting process (S731), a special winning opening operation setting process (S732) is performed. In this process (S732), as shown in FIG. 39, first, a special winning opening to be opened is set corresponding to the number of rounds (S750). Specifically, when the number of rounds is “1”, the lower major prize opening (first attacker port 34A, shutter plate 34T) is set, and when the number of rounds is “2”, the upper major prize opening ( The second attacker port 35A and the attacker door 35T) are set. Next, a big winning opening round corresponding to the type of jackpot is set (S751). Specifically, when the second big hit flag is ON (bonus with bonus) and the number of rounds is “2” (upper big prize opening), the long big hit (see Table 3) is set in the RAM and the second big hit is set. When the flag is OFF (no bonus with no special benefits) and the number of rounds is “2” (upper prize winning opening), the short jackpot setting (see Table 4) is performed in the RAM. When the number of rounds is “1” (lower big prize opening), setting for lower big prize opening is performed in the RAM.

  As shown in Tables 3 and 4, at the time of bonus with bonus, the attacker door 35T repeats the operation of closing for 0.1 second after opening for 1 second 22 times. On the other hand, at the time of a big hit without a privilege, the attacker door 35T opens only once for 1 second. In addition, as shown in Table 2, the entry restricting member 36B that restricts entry into the V confirmation opening 36A is opened for about 0.1 seconds after 0.1 seconds from the start of the jackpot, and then closed for about 3 seconds. For about 26 seconds. Thereby, at the time of big hit with a privilege, the game ball that has entered the second attacker port 35A can pass through the V confirmation port 36A with high probability. On the other hand, the entry restricting member 36B is closed at almost the timing at which the game ball can enter the second attacker port 35A at the time of the big hit without a privilege, and the game ball does not pass through the V determination port 36A (difficulty) Is configured).

  Following the setting of the big prize round (S751), it is determined whether or not the big prize opening set in the setting of the big prize round is the top prize winning mouth (whether the number of rounds is “2”) (S752). If the upper prize winning opening is not set (No in S752), the process exits (S732). When the top prize opening is set in the big prize round setting (Yes in S752), the probability variation area operation counter value is loaded from the RAM (S753), and the operation time of the entry restricting member 36B (Table 2). The execution time corresponding to the probability variation area operation counter is set in the RAM (S754). At this time, the probability variation area operation counter has an initial value “0”. Thereafter, this process (S732) is exited.

  Returning to FIG. 37, following the big winning opening operation setting process (S732), the operation status is set to “5 (open big winning opening)” (S733), and the big hit starting process (S172, S182) is exited. The above is the description of the jackpot start process (S172, S182).

  Next, the special figure 1 big win opening process (S173) in the special figure 1 big hit operation process (S131A) (see FIG. 33) and the special figure 2 big in the special figure 2 big hit operation process (S131B) (see FIG. 34). The winning opening opening process (S183) will be described with reference to FIG. In this process (S173, S183), the round end determination and the opening / closing operation of the attacker door 35T are set. Specifically, first, a special winning opening switch detection process (S760) is performed. In the big prize opening switch detection process (S760), as shown in FIG. 41, it is determined whether or not the game ball has won the big prize opening (S770), and if the game ball has not won the big prize opening ( In S770, No), this process (S760) is exited. When the game ball has won a big winning opening (Yes in S770), 1 is added to the number of winning a big winning opening (S771), and this process (S760) is exited.

<End of jackpot operation>
As shown in FIG. 40, next to the big prize opening switch detection process (S760), it is determined whether or not the number of big prize winning prizes has reached the prescribed number (whether or not it is 10 or more) (S761), and the prescribed number. If it has not reached (No in S761), it is determined whether or not the round time has elapsed (S762).

  When the number of winning prizes has not reached the specified number and the round time has not elapsed (No in S761 and No in S762), that is, when the round is continuing, setting of the second attacker port 35A Is determined (whether the number of rounds is “2”) (S763). If the second attacker port 35A is set (Yes in S763), the second attacker port 35A It is determined whether the operating time has elapsed (S764). When the operation time of the second attacker port 35A has elapsed (Yes in S764), the upper prize winning port action counter is decremented by 1 (S765), and whether or not the big hit game at the upper prize winning port has ended. It is determined (whether or not the upper prize winning counter operation counter is “0”) (S766). When the big hit game at the top prize winning opening continues (No at S766), the top prize winning opening / closing setting process (S767) is performed. In the top prize winning opening / closing setting process (S767), as shown in FIG. 42, the top prize winning opening operation counter is loaded (S780), and the second attacker opening 35A corresponding to the top winning prize opening operation counter and the type of jackpot is obtained. Is set (S781), and the upper prize winning opening / closing setting process (S767) is exited.

  As shown in FIG. 40, when the second attacker port 35A is not set, the operation time of the second attacker port 35A has not elapsed, or the upper prize winning port operation counter is “0” (in S763) No, or No in S764 or Yes in S766), the big prize opening process (S173, S183) is exited. In addition, when the number of winning prizes reaches the specified number, or when the round time has elapsed (Yes in S761 or Yes in S762), it is determined that the round has ended, and data on the closing of the winning prize 1 (for example, large The winning opening is closed for 1 hour (S768), the operation status is set to "6 (Large winning opening closed 1)" (S769), and the process exits (S173, S183). The above is the description of the special winning opening opening process (S173, S183).

  Next, the special figure 1 big winning opening closing process 1 (S174) in the special figure 1 big hit movement process (S131A) (see FIG. 33) and the special figure 2 in the special figure 2 big hit movement process (S131B) (see FIG. 34). The big prize closing 1 process (S184) will be described with reference to FIG. In this process (S174, S184), a predetermined time is waited. Specifically, in this process (S174, S184), first, whether or not the 1 hour closing of the big prize opening has ended (after setting the 1 hour closing of the big prize opening, the data of the big winning opening closing 1 is set. It is determined whether or not a predetermined time has passed (S790). If the one-hour closing of the big prize opening has not ended (No in S790), the process (S174, S184) is exited. When the 1 hour closing of the big prize opening is over (Yes in S790), data of closing the big prize opening 2 (for example, 2 hours closing of the big prize opening) is set (S791), and the operation status is set to “7 (big prize winning). Mouth closure 2) "is set (S792), and the process (S174, S184) is exited.

  Next, the special figure 1 big winning opening closing process 2 (S175) in the special figure 1 big hit operation process (S131A) (see FIG. 33) and the special figure 2 in the special figure 2 big hit operation process (S131B) (see FIG. 34). The big prize opening closing 2 process (S185) will be described with reference to FIG. In this process (S175, S185), if there is a remaining round, the next round is set, and if there is no remaining round, the setting necessary for the big hit ending is performed. Specifically, first, whether or not the two hours closing of the special winning opening has ended (whether or not a predetermined time set in the data of the closing of the special winning opening 2 has elapsed since the setting of the two closing hours of the special winning opening) (S800). If the two-hour winning prize closing time has not ended (No in S800), the process (S175, S185) is exited.

  When the two hours closing of the big prize opening is over (Yes in S800), it is determined whether or not there is a round (whether or not the number of effective rounds is “0”) (S801), and the round remains. In (No in S801), as the setting of the next round, a round setting process (S802) is performed, a big winning opening operation setting process (S803) is performed, and “5 (opening a big winning opening)” is set in the operation status. (S804), the process exits (S175, S185). The round setting process (S802) and the big prize opening action setting process (S803) are the same as the round setting process (S731) and the big prize opening action setting process (S732) in the big hit starting process (S172, S182). .

  If no rounds remain (Yes in S801), data is set in the jackpot ending command (hereinafter referred to as “hit ED command” as appropriate) (S805), and “8 (End of jackpot)” is set in the operation status. (S806) The big hit ED command is set in the output buffer of the RAM (S807), and the process exits (S175, S185). The above is the description of the special winning opening closing 2 process (S175, S185).

  Next, the special figure 1 big hit end process (S176) and the special figure 2 big hit end process in the special figure 1 big hit action process (see FIG. 33) and the special figure 2 big hit action process (S131B) (see FIG. 34) The process (S186) will be described with reference to FIG. In this process (S176, S186), after the big hit ending is completed, the game state after the big hit game is set, and the flags and counters used in the big hit operation are initialized. Specifically, it is first determined whether or not the big hit ending has ended (whether or not a predetermined time set in the big hit ED command has elapsed since the start of the big hit ending) (S810). If the big hit ending has not ended (No in S810), the process exits (S176, S186).

<Determination of gaming status after jackpot game>
When the big hit ending has ended (Yes in S810), it is determined whether or not the big hit is a “big hit with a bonus” (whether or not the second big hit flag is ON) (S811). If it is (Yes in S811), it is determined whether or not a game ball has entered the V confirmation opening 36A (whether or not the probability variation area passing flag is ON) (S812). When a game ball enters the V confirmation opening 36A (Yes in S812), data setting with a high probability time is set (S813), and when no ball is entered (No in S812), a low probability time A data setting is performed (S814). If it is not a “hit with bonus” (No in S811), it is determined whether or not a game ball has entered the V confirmation opening 36A (whether or not the probability variation area passing flag is ON) (S815). When a game ball enters the final opening 36A (Yes in S815), data setting is performed with no high probability time (S816), and when no ball is entered (No in S815), there is no low probability time. Is set (S817). In the present embodiment, only when there is a low probability of short time (a big hit with a bonus and a game ball does not enter the V confirmation opening 36A) (S814), the setting for the short time is set (for example, the short time flag is ON). Then, set 90 times in the hourly time counter).

  After setting the game state after the big hit game (S813, S814, S816, S817), the flags and counters used for the big hit operation are initialized (S818), and the main control state command is set in the RAM output buffer. Then, “0 (standby)” is set as the operation status (S820), and the process exits (S176, S186). The above is the description of the special operation process (S14) in the main control board interrupt process (S5).

<Notification to the sub-control board of the number of reserved balls>
Returning to FIG. 19, the description will be continued. Next to the special operation process (S14) described above, the retained ball number process (S15) is performed. This process (S15) includes the special figure 1 reserved ball number (the number of holdings of the special symbol 1 for variable display), the special figure 2 reserved ball number (the number of holdings for the special symbol 2 for variable display), and the normal symbol reserved ball number ( The normal symbol variation display hold count) is loaded from the RAM, and the data of the number of held balls is set in the RAM output buffer as a hold command.

  Subsequent to the reserved ball number processing (S15), other processing not deeply related to the present invention (S16) is executed to exit from the main control board interrupt processing (S5). Then, as shown in FIG. 18, the processing of steps S2 to S4 is repeatedly executed until the next interrupt pulse is input, and the main control board interrupt processing is performed again due to the input of the interrupt pulse (after about 4 msec). (S5) is executed. Then, as described above, the various commands set in the RAM output buffer in the previous main control board interrupt process (S5) are the command processes (S10) of the main control board interrupt process (S5) executed next. Is output at. The above is the description regarding the internal processing of the main control board 60.

<Sub control board main program>
Next, processing of the sub-control board main program PG2 executed by the sub-control board will be described in detail with reference to FIGS. As shown in FIG. 46, in the main process PG2 executed by the CPU 70A of the sub control board 70, as in the main process PG1 executed by the CPU 60A of the main control board 60, the initial setting (S21) is performed. A loop is entered in which interrupt inhibition (S24), random number counter update processing (S25), and interrupt authorization (S26) are repeated. Then, a reception interrupt process (S27), a 2ms timer interrupt process (S28), and a 10ms timer interrupt process (S29) are interrupted and executed for the loop.

  In the reception interrupt process (S27), as shown in FIG. 47, the strobe signal is checked (S271). If the strobe signal is not on (No in S271), the process immediately exits (S27) and the strobe signal is If it is ON (Yes in S271), the command and control data sent from the main control board 60 to the sub control board 70 are fetched and stored in the RAM 70B (S272), and this process (S27) is exited.

  48. The 2 ms timer interrupt process (S28) is shown in FIG. 48. The interrupt is executed at a cycle of 2 msec. First, in the output process (S281), the control created in the 10 ms timer interrupt process (S29) described below is performed. Data is output to a control board such as the display 15. Next, in the input process (S282), the state of various switches of the pachinko gaming machine 10 is read to create switch data. Then, the watchdog timer is reset in the watchdog timer process (S283).

  The 10 ms timer interrupt process (S29) is interrupted and executed at a cycle of 10 msec. As shown in FIG. 49, in this process (S29), a switch state acquisition process (S41) and a received command analysis process (S42) are mainly executed. First, in the switch status acquisition process (S41), the switch data created in the 2ms timer interrupt process (S28) is fetched as switch data for the 10ms timer interrupt process. The switch data includes operation data for the operation button 10B.

<Receiving command analysis processing>
Details of the received command analysis process (S42) are shown in FIG. In this process (S920), first, it is determined whether or not the sub control board 70 has received a command from the main control board 60 (S51). If a command has been received (Yes in S51), the type of the received command (hereinafter referred to as “reception command” as appropriate) is determined, and processing is executed based on the content.

  Specifically, when the received command is the special figure 1 fluctuation command (command for starting the special figure 1 fluctuation) (Yes in S52), the special figure 1 fluctuation command processing (S53) is executed, and the big hit OP command In the case of (a command for starting a big hit game) (Yes in S54), the big hit OP command process (S55) is executed, and in the case of other commands (No in S54), a process corresponding to the received command Is executed (S56). In the hold command process (not shown) executed when the received command is a hold command, the generated hold is prefetched and stored together with the prefetch judgment result.

  Then, after the process based on the type of received command is executed, the process exits (S920). Details of the special figure 1 variable command process (S53) and the jackpot OP command process (S55) will be described below.

<Special Figure 1 Variation Command Processing>
In the special figure 1 variation command process (S53), depending on the game situation, the determination result of the first right / fail judgment right at which the fluctuation is started, the pre-reading determination result of the next hold, etc. To decide. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 51, first, it is determined whether or not the current gaming state is “short state with probability change” (S61). If the current gaming state is not “short state with probability change” (S61). In No), another process corresponding to the received command is executed (S67), and the process exits (S53).

  If the current gaming state is the “short state when there is a certain change” (Yes in S61), is the determination result of the first right-and-left determination right (hereinafter referred to as “the determination result”) on which the change starts? It is determined whether or not (S62). If the determination result is out (No in S62), after turning on the effect flag (S63), it is determined whether the lamp flag is off (S64). When the lamp flag is turned on (that is, when the warning lamp 15L is already lit, No at S64), the process proceeds to step S65, while when the lamp flag is turned off (that is, the warning lamp). When 15L is turned off (Yes in S64), the lamp lighting command is set (S68), and the process proceeds to step S65.

  When the lamp lighting command is set, the warning lamp 15L is turned on immediately after the command is transmitted to the control board of the display 15.

  In step S65, it is determined whether or not the next pending prefetch determination result is a win. If it is off (No in S65), the lamp flag is turned on (S66), whereas if it is a hit (Yes in S65), the lamp flag is turned off (S69). Thereafter, other processes are executed (S67), and the process exits (S53).

  In step S62, when the determination result is a win (Yes in S62), after setting the operation effect (failure) (S70), other processing is executed (S67), and the processing (S53) is exited.

<About jackpot OP command processing>
In the big hit OP command processing (S55), processing for performing an operation effect (success) or a special effect is mainly performed on the display 15. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 52, first, it is determined whether or not the current gaming state is “short state with probability change” (S81). If the current gaming state is not “short state with probability change” (S81). In No), another process corresponding to the received command is executed (S89), and the process exits (S55).

  If the current game state is the “short state when there is a certain change” (Yes in S81), it is determined whether or not the big hit game to be executed is due to the hit in FIG. 2 (S82). If it is according to FIG. 1 (No in S82), other processing is executed (S89), and this processing (S55) is exited. On the other hand, if it is based on the special figure 2 (Yes in S82), it is determined whether or not the production flag is turned on (that is, whether or not it is the first big hit game in the fluctuation of the special figure 1) (S83). . If the effect flag is off (No in S83), other processing is executed (S89) and the processing exits (S55).

  If the effect flag is on (Yes in S83), after setting the operation effect (success) and the special effect (S84 and S85), the effect flag is turned off (S86). Next, it is determined whether or not the lamp flag is turned on (that is, whether or not the next hold is missed) (S87), and if the lamp flag is turned on (Yes in S87). Sets a lamp relighting command (S88), while if the lamp flag is off (No in S87), a lamp extinguishing command is set (S90). Thereafter, other processes are executed (S89), and the process exits (S55).

  When the command for operation effect (success) and the command for special effect are set, the operation effect (success) is started immediately after those commands are transmitted to the control board of the display 15, and the operation effect ( Special effects will be started after the end of (success). When the lamp relighting command is set and transmitted to the control board of the display 15, the notice lamp 15L displayed on the display 15 is displayed at the end of the operation effect (success) (timing when the characters “bonus” are aligned). After it is turned off, it is turned on again immediately. On the other hand, when the lamp turn-off command is set and transmitted to the control board of the display 15, the notice lamp 15L displayed on the display 15 is displayed at the end of the operation effect (success) (when “bonus” characters are aligned). It is turned off and no relighting is performed thereafter. Further, the lamp flag is configured to be always turned off when the “short state with certain change” ends.

  Of the above-described processes, the CPU 60A when executing the start winning a prize opening switch detection process (S12) and the CPU 70A when executing a hold command process (not shown) are the “hold prefetching means” of the present invention. The CPU 70A when executing the special figure 1 fluctuation command process (S53) and the big hit OP command process (S55) corresponds to the “special effect execution means” of the present invention.

[Other Embodiments]
The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment. For example, the embodiments described below are also included in the technical scope of the present invention, and various other than the following can be made without departing from the scope of the invention. It can be changed and implemented.

(1) In the above-described embodiment, one special effect is executed while the first determination notification effect of losing is performed once. However, while the first determination notification effect of detachment is performed a plurality of times. May be executed.

  For example, if the configuration is such that one special effect is executed while the first determination notification effect of detachment is performed twice, the operation effect is executed during the first determination notification effect of the first detachment, and then the special effect is performed. The production starts and ends at the end of the first determination notification production out of the second time. Then, the number of jackpot games based on the second right / no-go judgment right executed during the two first missed determination notification effects is counted up. At this time, the warning lamp 15L may be re-lighted as long as one of the first right / no-judgment rights determined to be true / failed after the two off-first first determination / notification effects is off. It may be done only when there is one continuous deviation. In the case of this example, the period in which the first determination notification effect that is out of place is executed twice corresponds to the “special period” of the present invention.

(2) In the above-described embodiment, the “notice effect” of the present invention is performed by turning on the notice lamp 15L. However, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, even when a specific character is displayed. Good.

(3) In the above embodiment, only the result of the next hold is determined, and only whether or not the “notice effect” of the present invention is performed is determined. The content of the “notice effect” may be different depending on the number of consecutive detachments.

  For example, when the “notice effect” is performed by turning on the notice lamp 15L, the color of the notice lamp 15L may be different, or when the “notice effect” is displayed by the character display, a different character is displayed. May be.

  In addition, the configuration may be such that the content of the “notice effect” differs depending on whether the number of consecutive losing of the first right / no-go determination right after the next suspension is 1 to 3 and 4 times. For example, the notice lamp 15L may be red when it is 1 to 3 times, while it may be iridescent when it is 4 times.

(4) In the above embodiment, the “notification effect” is the “operation effect (success)” in which the next “operation effect” is the “bonus” character (that is, the first right / no-go determination right). The probability that the next “operation effect” will be “operation effect (success)” (that is, the next hold of the first right / fail judgment right). (Probability of losing) may be notified in advance. For example, “50%” may be set when the warning lamp 15L shines blue, “80%” when lit green, “100%” when lit red, etc.

(5) In the above-described embodiment, the “notice effect” is always performed when the next hold of the first right / no-go determination right is removed. (In other words, there may be a case where “notice effect” is performed and a case where it is not performed).

(6) The “notice effect” may not be performed.

(7) In the above embodiment, the requirement for aligning the characters “bonus” in the operation effect is to operate the operation button 10B a plurality of times, but it is also possible to hold down the operation button 10B.

(8) In the above embodiment, the operation effect is an effect in which the characters “bonus” are arranged, but the present invention is not limited to this. For example, a configuration in which other characters are aligned or a configuration in which a battle is won may be employed.

(9) A configuration in which an operation effect is not performed may be used. In this case, for example, the start timing of the special effect may be the start time of the first big hit game during the first determination notification effect of losing, or may be the start time of the first determination notification effect of losing.

(10) In the above embodiment, the remaining time of the “special effect” is suggested by a change in the background color, but the remaining time of the “special effect” may be displayed on the display 15 in a countdown manner. . In the latter case, when the big hit game with the second right / fail judgment right is executed and the first determination notification effect is substantially extended, the extension is displayed by adding “+ ○ second” or the like. It may be configured so that after the countdown of the remaining time of our office (not including the extension), a character such as “soon to end” is displayed, and the character is deleted at the end of the extension It may be configured.

(11) In the above embodiment, during the “special effect”, the count-up effect that counts up the number of executions of the big hit game by the second winning / decision determination right is performed. However, the count-up effect is not performed. May be.

(12) In the above embodiment, the execution time of the first determination notification effect of deviation in the probability variation state is constant, but may not be constant.

  For example, when the execution time of the first determination notification effect is selected by lottery from 40 seconds, 80 seconds, and 160 seconds, the second right / no-go determination right is determined depending on the type of the determination notification effect. The number of executions of the big hit game by (that is, the number of winning balls obtained) will be different. At this time, an effect of notifying the length of the execution time in the next hold (that is, the expected winning degree of the winning ball) may be performed.

(13) A “special effect” can be performed shortly after the start of the first determination notification effect of losing in the probability variation state until the first big hit game based on the second right / fail judgment right is started. An effect that suggests this may be performed (for example, “Preparing bonus time” is displayed on the display 15).

(14) In the above-described embodiment, the second determination notification unit 25 is configured by a plurality of LEDs. However, as with the first determination notification unit 15G, a determination symbol that changes within a range of 0 to 9 is displayed on the display 15, for example. It may be a configuration in which three are arranged side by side.
