  In the first special symbol display device 4A, the second special symbol display device 4B, the image display device 5, etc., variable display of the special symbol or the decorative symbol is performed. These variable displays are based on the occurrence of the first start winning due to the game ball passing (entering) the first starting winning opening formed in the regular winning ball device 6A, or in the normally variable winning ball device 6B. Execution becomes possible based on the occurrence of the second start winning due to the game ball passing (entering) the formed second start winning opening. Each of the first special symbol display device 4A and the second special symbol display device 4B is constituted of, for example, LEDs (light emitting diodes) of 7 segments, dot matrix, etc., and in the special view game as an example of the variable display game, identification information ( A special symbol (also referred to as "special image"), which is special identification information), is variably displayed (variable display). The image display device 5 is configured of, for example, an LCD (liquid crystal display device) or the like, and forms a display area for displaying various effect images. In the image display device 5, the variable display of the special symbol (also referred to as "the first special image") by the first special symbol display device 4A in the special figure game or the special symbol by the second special symbol display device 4B ("the second special symbol In correspondence with each of the variable display of “also”, a decorative symbol which is identification information (decorative identification information) is variably displayed in a decorative symbol display area consisting of a plurality of, for example, three variable display portions. The variable display of this decorative pattern is also included in the variable display game.

  In the special figure game by the first special symbol display device 4A or the second special symbol display device 4B, after the variable display of the special symbol is started, when the predetermined time which becomes the special figure fluctuation time elapses, the variable display result of the special symbol The finalized special symbol that will be displayed is displayed in a stopped state (derived display). At this time, if a specific special symbol (big hit symbol) is stopped and displayed as the determined special symbol, it becomes "big hit" as a specific display result, and a predetermined special symbol (small hit symbol) different from the big hit symbol is stopped and displayed. In this case, if the special display other than the big hit symbol or the small hit symbol is stopped and displayed as "small hit" as the predetermined display result, it becomes "loss". After the variable display result in the special figure game becomes a "big hit", it is controlled to a big hit gaming state in which a round game advantageous to the player (also referred to simply as "round") is executed a predetermined number of times. In addition, after the variable display result in the special view game becomes "small hit", the small hit gaming state different from the big hit gaming state is controlled. In the pachinko gaming machine 1 according to this embodiment, as an example, the numbers indicating “1”, “3”, “5”, “7” are the big hit symbols, and the numbers indicating “2” are the small hit symbols, “ The symbol indicating "-" is a lost design. In addition, each symbol such as big hit symbol or small hit symbol in special figure game by the first special symbol display device 4A, such as lost symbol, is a special symbol different from each symbol in the special figure game by the second special symbol display device 4B The special symbol common to both of the special figure games may be a big hit symbol, a small hit symbol, or a lost symbol.

  In this embodiment, among the special symbols indicating the numbers “1”, “3”, “5” and “7” that are the jackpot symbols, 14 rounds of the special symbols indicating the numbers “3” and “7” A big hit design, and a special symbol showing the numbers "1" and "5" will be a 4 round big hit design. In the big hit gaming state (14 round big hit state) controlled after the 14 round big hit symbol is stopped and displayed as a confirmed special symbol in the special figure game, the movable piece (not shown) of the special variable winning ball device 7 is the first period The special variable winning ball device 7 is advantageous for the player by opening the big winning opening in a predetermined period (for example, 29 seconds) or a period until a predetermined number (for example, 10) of winning balls are generated. Round to change to the first state is executed. At this time, the player may be notified that the game ball should flow down to the right gaming area 10b by right-handling by the notification means such as the speakers 8L and 8R. Alternatively, the image display device 5 may display an image indicating that the player should hit the right, and the player may be notified that the game ball should flow down to the right gaming area 10b by hitting the right. In this way, the movable piece which made the big winning a prize opening state in the round receives the game ball which falls the right game territory 10b, after that making the big winning a prize mouth closed, the special variable winning a prize ball device 7 the player The first round is ended by changing to the closed state, which is a second state that is disadvantageous to the player. In the 14 round big hit state, the number of times of execution of the round which is an open cycle of the big winning opening becomes the first number (for example, "14"). The game in the 14-round jackpot state in which the number of rounds executed is “14” is also referred to as the 14-time open game.

  In the big hit gaming state (four round big hit state) controlled after the 4 round big hit symbol is stopped and displayed as the finalized special symbol in the special figure game, the first variable winning ball device 7 is advantageous for the player in each round. The period (the period in which the movable piece opens the big winning opening) is a second period (for example, 0.5 seconds) shorter than the first period in the 14 round big hit state. Further, in the four round big hit state, the number of round executions is the second number (for example, “4”) smaller than the first number in the 14 round big hit state. The game in the 4 round jackpot state in which the number of rounds executed is "4" is also referred to as 4 open games. In the fourth round big hit state, the player may be informed that the game ball should flow down to the right gaming area 10b by right-handling by notification means such as the speakers 8L and 8R. Alternatively, the image display device 5 may display an image indicating that the player should hit the right, and the player may be notified that the game ball should flow down to the right gaming area 10b by hitting the right.

  In the special figure game by the second special symbol display device 4B, the appearance ratio of the 14 round jackpot when the large win is set is set higher than that of the special figure game by the first special symbol display device 4A. That is, the selection ratio of the jackpot having a high degree of advantage is higher in the special symbol game by the second special symbol display device 4B than in the special symbol game by the first special symbol display device 4A.

  Of the special symbols showing the numbers of "3" and "7" that will be the 14 round big hit symbols, the 14 round big hit based on that the special symbol showing the number of "3" is stopped and displayed as the confirmed special symbol in the special figure game After the state is over, as one of the special game states, the variable display time of the special symbol or the decorative symbol is shortened as compared to the normal state (also referred to as the "low probability low base state"). Controlled to a high base state). Here, the normal state is a gaming state other than the special gaming state such as the big hit gaming state or the time saving state, and the initialization state of the pachinko gaming machine 1 (for example, as in the case where the system reset is performed The same control as in the state where the initialization process is executed after the input is performed. The time saving state ends if either of a predetermined number of times (for example, 100 times) of the special figure game is executed and the variable display result is a "big hit" when either condition is met first. Good.

  Of the special symbols showing the numbers of "3" and "7" that will be the 14 round big hit symbols, the 14 round big hit based on that the special symbol showing the number of "7" is stopped and displayed as the confirmed special symbol in the special figure game After the state ends, as one of the special gaming states different from the time saving state, for example, the time saving control is performed in which the variable display time of the special symbol or the decorative symbol is shortened compared to the normal state It is controlled to a probability change state (also referred to as a "high probability high base state") as a high probability gaming state (high probability state) in which fluctuation control (probability change control) is performed.

  After the special symbol indicating the small hit symbol "2" is stopped and displayed as the confirmed special symbol in the special figure game, the small hit gaming state is controlled. In this small hit gaming state, a variable winning operation is performed to change the special variable winning ball device 7 to a first state advantageous to the player, as in the 4-round big hit state. In the small hit gaming state, the player may be informed by a notification means such as speakers 8L and 8R to make the game ball flow down to the right gaming area 10b by hitting the right. Alternatively, the image display device 5 may display an image indicating that the player should hit the right, and the player may be notified that the game ball should flow down to the right gaming area 10b by hitting the right. In the small hit gaming state, an operation of opening the big winning opening over the second period by the movable piece provided in the special variable winning ball device 7 is repeatedly executed until the second number of times is reached. In the small hit gaming state, it may be controlled to repeat the operation of opening the big winning opening for the second period for a plurality of times.

The second hold display unit 46 displays the second special view hold storage number in a distinguishable manner. The second special view reservation storage number is a suspension display number of variable display corresponding to the special view game using the second special view in the second special symbol display device 4B.

  Hold storage of the variable display corresponding to the special view game is performed based on the occurrence of the first start winning or the second starting winning. That is, although a start condition (also referred to as "execution condition") for executing a variable display game such as a special view game or variable display of a decorative symbol is satisfied, a variable display game based on the start condition established earlier is being executed. When the start condition for permitting the start of the variable display game is not satisfied due to the fact that the pachinko gaming machine 1 is controlled to the big hit gaming state, etc., the start condition is still started corresponding to the satisfied start condition. There is no variable display pending storage. If the special drawing game using the first special figure can not be started when the first start winning occurs, the number of the first special figure reservation storage number is incremented by one, and the special figure using the first special figure Execution of the game is suspended. If the special drawing game using the second special drawing can not be started when the second start winning occurs, the number of the second special drawing reservation storage number is incremented by one and the special drawing using the second special drawing Execution of the game is suspended. On the other hand, when the execution of the special figure game using the first special figure is started, the first special figure reservation memory number is decremented by 1 and the special figure game is executed using the second special figure Is decremented by one. In addition, when the first start winning combination occurs, if the number of first special map reservations has reached a predetermined upper limit (for example, "4"), the special drawing game based on the starting winning is invalidated, and the prize is awarded Only the payout of balls may be made. In addition, when the second start winning combination occurs, if the number of the second special view reservation memory has reached a predetermined upper limit (for example, "4"), the special view game based on the start winning is invalidated, and the prize is awarded Only the payout of balls may be made. The reduction of the number of pending storages (the number of first special view pending storages or the number of second special view pending storages) due to the start of the special view game is also referred to as the end of the pending.

The switch circuit 110 takes in detection signals from various switches for game ball detection and transmits the signals to the game control microcomputer 100. The solenoid circuit 111 transmits a solenoid drive signal from the game control microcomputer 100 to the solenoid 81 for the ordinary motorized role and the solenoid 82 for the big winning opening door. The solenoid 81 for the ordinary electric role product makes it possible to change the second starting winning opening formed on the normally variable winning ball device 6B into a state in which the gaming ball hardly passes (or a state in which it does not pass) . The solenoid 82 for the special motorized role product can change the large winning opening formed in the special variable winning ball device 7 between a state in which the game ball does not pass and a state in which it is easy to pass.

  The effect control board 12 is a sub-side control board independent of the main board 11, and based on the reception of the control signal transmitted from the main board 11 via the relay board 15, the image display device 5, the speaker 8L, Various circuits for controlling the rendering operation by the 8R, the game effect lamp 9 and the electric components for presentation such as the LEDs 241 to 249 are mounted. On the effect control board 12 shown in FIG. 2, a CPU 120 for effect control, a ROM 121, a RAM 122, a display control unit 123, a random number circuit 124, an I / O 125 and the like are mounted. The voice control board 13 is a control board for voice output control provided separately from the effect control board 12 and causes the speakers 8L and 8R to output voice based on commands and control data from the effect control board 12 and the like. The processing circuit etc. which perform the audio | voice signal processing for this are mounted. The lamp control board 14 is a control board for lamp output control provided separately from the effect control board 12, and based on commands and control data from the effect control board 12, the game effect lamp 9, the LEDs 241 to 249, etc. The lamp driver circuit etc. which perform lighting / extinguishing drive in are mounted.

  As shown in FIG. 2, detection signals from various switches such as the gate switch 21, the start port switch (the first start port switch 22A and the second start port switch 22B), and the count switch 23 are transmitted to the main substrate 11. Wiring is connected. The various switches may be of any type that can detect a game ball as a game medium, such as a sensor called, for example. Further, the main substrate 11 is connected with a wire for transmitting a command signal for performing display control of the first special symbol display device 4A, the second special symbol display device 4B, the normal symbol display device 20 and the like.

  The gate switch 21 detects the gaming ball (gate passing ball) which has passed through the passing gate 41. Based on the detection of the gate passing ball by the gate switch 21, the variable display of the normal symbol by the normal symbol display 20 can be performed. Such variable display of normal symbols is called a common game. In this common-play game, after starting the fluctuation of the normal symbol, when a predetermined time as the common-pattern fluctuation time elapses, the determined normal symbol as the variable display result of the normal symbol is stopped and displayed (derived display). At this time, if a specific normal symbol (a symbol per common figure) such as a number indicating "7" is stopped and displayed as the determined normal symbol, the variable display result of the normal symbol becomes "per common figure". On the other hand, if the normal symbol other than the symbol per symbol is stopped and displayed, for example, a number or symbol other than the number indicating “7” as the determined normal symbol, the variable display result of the normal symbol is “general symbol lost” Become. In response to the variable display result of the normal symbol becoming "per common drawing", the open control is performed in which the pair of movable pieces (not shown) constituting the normal variable winning ball device 6B opens the second start winning opening. The closing control is performed to cover the second starting winning opening when a predetermined time has elapsed.

  In a definite change state or a short time state, a control for shortening the fluctuation time (common drawing fluctuation time) of a normal symbol in a common drawing game by a normal symbol display 20 than in a normal state or a variable normal symbol in each common drawing game Control to improve the probability that the display result will be "per flat" more than in the normal state, open control of the movable piece in the normal variable winning ball device 6B based on the variable display result is "per flat" The game ball enters the second starting winning opening formed on the normally variable winning ball device 6B, such as control to make the open control time to be performed longer than in the normal state, and control to increase the number of times of opening than in the normal state. Control is performed which is advantageous to the player by facilitating the process and increasing the possibility that the second start condition is established. As described above, the control that facilitates the game ball to enter the second starting winning opening in the probability changing state or the time saving state and is advantageous for the player is also referred to as high opening control. By performing the high open control, the frequency of the open state is increased more than when the high open control of the second start winning opening is not performed. The period during which high opening control can be performed is also called high opening control period, and this period may be the same as the period during which the gaming state in pachinko gaming machine 1 is controlled to either the probability changing state or the time saving state. .

As described above, in order to operate the plurality of movable bodies 220, the game ball may be hit so as to collide with the buffer member 50, and it is necessary to separately provide drive means for the plurality of movable bodies 220 and detection means for the game balls There is no Therefore, the manufacturing cost of the pachinko gaming machine 1 can be suppressed.

  In addition, the player can hit the game ball into the right game area 10b (right-handed), thereby causing the game ball to collide with the buffer member 50 and operating the plurality of movable bodies 220. A right strike is reliably performed by the player turning the hit operation handle to the right to the point where the player can not turn the hit operation handle any more in order to maximize the operation amount of the hit operation handle. Therefore, it does not require a difficult operation to hit the right. Thereby, the player can easily operate the plurality of movable bodies 220.

  In addition, each of the plurality of movable bodies 220 is attached to the rendering device 200 so as to be capable of peristalsis. Therefore, only by causing the game ball to collide with the buffer member 50, the vibration is transmitted to the effect device 200, and the plurality of movable bodies 220 can be operated at the same time. This makes it possible to enhance the rendering effect.

  Further, since the buffer member 50 is configured to be detachable from the game board 2 by screwing, the buffer member 50 can be easily replaced. Thereby, the malfunction which arises in the pachinko game machine 1 can be suppressed.

  Moreover, LED241-249 which radiate | emits light is provided in the back of several movable body 220, respectively. Thereby, light can be emitted from the plurality of movable bodies 220, so that the rendering effect can be enhanced. In addition, since various patterns are formed in the light emitting portion of the plurality of movable bodies 220, when the LEDs 241 to 249 emit light while the plurality of movable bodies 220 are in operation (during peristalsis), the plurality of movable bodies 220 The aspect of the emitted light can be changed. As a result, the player can pay more attention to the operation of the plurality of movable bodies 220, and the effect of presentation can be enhanced.

  Further, by providing the fixed portion between the game board 2 and the guide frame 60 and the fixed portion between the guide frame 60 and the rendering device 200 in the vicinity of the buffer member 50, the game ball collides with the buffer member 50. The generated vibration can be easily transmitted to the rendering device 200. As a result, the plurality of movable bodies 220 can be easily operated (perturbed).

  In addition, a first rendering unit 214 and a second rendering unit 215 are provided in the vicinity of the plurality of movable bodies 220 that operate. Since the first effect part 214 and the second effect part 215 are fixed to the front cover 210, they do not swing. This makes it possible to make the movements of the plurality of movable bodies 220 that move (wobble) more noticeable, and to enhance the effects of the effects.

  Further, the timing at which the LEDs 241 to 249 emit light is matched with the rightward driving period in which the pachinko gaming machine 1 is controlled to be in a short-time state or the like. The right strike period is notified to the player by the speakers 8 L and 8 R and the image display device 5. Therefore, the right strike can be appropriately performed during the right strike period. Thereby, it is detected whether the player is hitting the right or the movable body is oscillating to match the timing at which the plurality of movable bodies 220 oscillate and the timing at which the LEDs 241 to 249 emit light. It is not necessary to separately provide a sensor or the like. Thereby, the manufacturing cost of the pachinko gaming machine 1 can be suppressed.

  Further, since the LEDs 241 to 249 emit light at the timing of the right strike period, the light emitted from the plurality of movable bodies 220 can notify the player that it is the right strike period. That is, the LEDs 241 to 249 can function as notification means for notifying a right strike period, and the game can be smoothly advanced.

  The present invention is not limited to the above embodiment, and various modifications and applications are possible. The ease of peristalsis of the plurality of movable bodies 220 has not been particularly mentioned, but, for example, the one placed farther from the buffer unit 50 may be configured to be easier to oscillate. That is, the second movable frame 232 and the second movable portion 235 have a wider gap than the first movable frame 231 and the first movable portion 234 and are easy to oscillate, and the third movable frame 233 and the third movable portion 336 The gap may be further increased to facilitate swinging. As a result, it is possible to make it easier to vibrate as far as the movable body which is hard to transmit the vibration, and to adjust the size of the peristaltic movement among the plurality of movable bodies 220. In addition, various gaps may be made different among the plurality of movable bodies 220 in order to make the peristalsis different. For example, various gaps between the second movable frame 232 and the second movable portion 235 disposed at the center may be set larger than the other ones to cause different motions among the plurality of movable bodies 220. As a result, the plurality of movable bodies 220 can be operated complexly, and the rendering effect can be enhanced.

  In the above embodiment, it has been described that the left gaming area 10a and the right gaming area 10b are disposed with the center in the left-right direction of the gaming area 10 as the boundary, but the boundary position is not limited to the center, The size of the left gaming area 10a may be different from the size of the right gaming area 10b. That is, when the amount of operation of the hit operating handle is increased and the emission intensity is increased, the gaming ball is driven into the right gaming area 10b, and the amount of operation of the hit operating handle is reduced and the emission intensity is decreased. The aspect may be any mode as long as the gaming ball is driven into the left gaming area 10a.

  Moreover, although LED241-249 is attached to one LED board | substrate 240, the aspect which provides the LED board to which LED was attached for every movable body may be sufficient, for example. Moreover, the aspect which attached LED to movable body itself, and comprised movable body and LED integrally may be sufficient.

  Further, the mounting position of the movable body, the number of mountings of the movable body, and the number of vibration generation sources and generation sources for operating the movable body are not particularly limited. For example, a vibration generated by the collision of the game balls may be transmitted to the guide frame 60, the obstacle nail provided near the rendering device 200, or the passage gate 41 to swing the movable body. Under the present circumstances, you may provide separately the vibration transmission member which connects the guide frame 60, the obstruction nail, or the passage gate 41, and the rendering apparatus 200, and makes it easy to transmit the vibration which generate | occur | produced by collision to a movable body. Thus, by providing a plurality of vibration sources in which the movable body operates, it is possible to set more opportunities for the movable body to operate. In addition, the movable body is attached to the front face of the normal winning ball device 6A so as to be able to move freely, and the game ball flowing down collides with the normal winning ball device 6A or an obstacle nail provided in the vicinity. It may be an operation mode. In this case, it is possible to cause the movable body to swing by colliding with the normal winning ball device 6A when the left hit game ball falls downward. In addition, a movable body may be separately provided in the game frame outside the gaming area 10, and a rendering device having a movable body may be separately provided below the rendering device 200. Thereby, the movable bodies provided at a plurality of places can be operated, and the rendering effect can be enhanced.

  In addition, the movable body may be provided at the upper left portion of the rendering device, and may be caused to swing by the vibration generated when the left-handed gaming ball collides with the rendering device 200 or the guide frame 60.

  In addition, the movable body may be mounted so as to be movable in a presentation device that moves between a standby position where the player is less likely to see and an advance position where the player has advanced into the game area and is easy to see. This makes it possible to swing the movable body at the time of movement of the effect device. In addition, by setting the standby position close to the vibration source (for example, the shock absorbing member 50) and setting the advanced position farther than the vibration source, the movable body of the rendering device in the standby position is largely shaken and moved to the advanced position. The movable body of a certain rendering device can be vibrated small.

  Further, in the above embodiment, a pachinko machine is illustrated as an example of a game machine, but the present invention is not limited to this, and for example, a game ball having a predetermined number of balls is contained inside a game machine The number of balls that are circularly enclosed and added in accordance with the player's request for lending, and the number of prize balls awarded in accordance with winnings are added, while the number of gaming balls used in the game is subtracted. The present invention is also applicable to so-called enclosed game machines that are stored.
