Game machine

Abstract

To provide a game machine capable of optimizing a configuration for performing processing based on the number of game values.SOLUTION: In a value number side RAM, a possessed number counter for storing a possessed game value number that is the number of game values possessed by a player is provided. A value number side MPU transmits possessed number classification information setting data to a main side MPU 72. Possessed number classification information corresponding to a possessed game value number stored in the possessed number counter is set to the possessed number classification information setting data. The number of values that the possessed number classification information can take is smaller than the number of values that the possessed game value number can take. The main side MPU 72 executes processing corresponding to betting operation on the basis that the value of received possessed number classification information is equal to or more than "1".SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 215

Claims

1. a customized control means, a specific control means, and is provided with, the specific control means includes a predetermined value number storage means for storing information on a predetermined number of game values, which is the number of game values owned by a player, a predetermined classification information transmission means for transmitting predetermined classification information corresponding to the predetermined number of game values stored in the predetermined value number storage means, and is provided with, the number of values that the predetermined classification information can take is less than the number of values that the predetermined number of game values can take, the customized control means is provided with a predetermined process execution means for executing a predetermined process based on the fact that the predetermined classification information received from the predetermined classification information transmission means is predetermined information. The gaming machine is characterized by this.

2. The data capacity of the predetermined classification information transmitted by the predetermined classification information transmission means is smaller than the data capacity of the information on the predetermined number of game values stored in the predetermined value number storage means. The gaming machine according to claim 1 is characterized by this.

3. The number of values that the predetermined classification information can take is 3 or more. The gaming machine according to claim 1 or 2 is characterized by this.

4. The predetermined process execution means includes a predetermined range corresponding process execution means for executing a predetermined range corresponding process corresponding to the fact that the predetermined number of game values is numerical information included in a predetermined numerical range as the predetermined process. The gaming machine according to claim 1 or 2 is characterized by this.

5. It is provided with a predetermined signal line capable of transmitting a predetermined signal from the specific control means to the customized control means, the predetermined classification information transmission means is provided with means for making a setting so that the predetermined classification information is transmitted using the predetermined signal line. The gaming machine according to claim 1 or 2 is characterized by this.

6. It is provided with "two" or more predetermined signal lines that enable the transmission of "two" or more predetermined signals from the specific control means to the predetermined control means. The gaming machine according to claim 5, wherein the predetermined classification information transmitting means is provided with means for performing setting so that the predetermined classification information in binary is transmitted in a state where "two" or more of the predetermined signal lines are used.

7. The specific control means is provided with means for transmitting specific information different from the predetermined classification information using the predetermined signal line. The gaming machine according to claim 5, characterized in that it is provided with a specific signal line used for transmitting predetermined data specifying information for specifying the type of data transmitted on the predetermined signal line.

8. The gaming machine according to claim 7, characterized in that transmission of specific error information indicating that a specific error has occurred is performed using the predetermined signal line in a state where the specific information is the specific error.

9. The predetermined control means is provided with means for transmitting predetermined control information stored in the predetermined control means to the specific control means. The gaming machine according to claim 5, wherein the predetermined classification information transmitting means is provided with means for making the predetermined classification information transmitted in a state where the predetermined signal line is used based on the specific control means having received the predetermined control information.

10. The specific control means is provided with means for transmitting specific control state information corresponding to the state of the specific control means using the predetermined signal line. The gaming machine according to claim 9, characterized in that the predetermined control means is provided with means for executing a process of acquiring the specific control state information transmitted from the specific control means at a timing earlier than the timing of transmitting the predetermined control information.
