Game machine

Abstract

To allow a player to easily recognize counting of the number of tokens when a counting button is depressed in a game machine.SOLUTION: In a game machine, performance control means outputs sound corresponding to information from sound output means on the basis of information regarding counting operation to counting operation means, information regarding counting operation to the counting operation means includes first information regarding an operation state of the counting operation means and second information regarding a counting state of a game value, and the performance control means outputs sound corresponding to operation continuation time of the counting operation means by controlling the sound output means on the basis of the first and second received information, can count the game value in one unit and outputs a predetermined sound when operation continuation time is less than predetermined time, and can count a game value in two or larger predetermined number units and outputs a specific sound different from the predetermined sound when operation continuation time is equal to or more than predetermined time.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 423

Claims

[Claim 1] a game control means for controlling the progress of a game; a game value control means connected to the game control means and performing control relating to management of game values; a counting operation means connected to the game value control means, for performing a counting operation of the game value stored in the gaming machine to transfer the game value to an external device; a performance control means connected to the game control means and controlling the performance based on information transmitted from the game control means; an audio output means connected to the performance control means and configured to output audio; the game value control means outputs information relating to the counting operation of the counting operation means to the game control means; The game control means transmits information regarding the counting operation to the counting operation means to the performance control means, the performance control means controls the sound output means to output a sound corresponding to the received information on the counting operation of the counting operation means, The information regarding the counting operation of the counting operation means includes first information regarding an operation state of the counting operation means and second information regarding a counting state of the game value, the performance control means controls the sound output means to output the sound corresponding to the operation duration of the counting operation means based on the received first information and the received second information; When the operation duration is less than a predetermined time, the game value can be counted in units of one. the performance control means controls the sound output means to output a predetermined sound when the operation duration is less than the predetermined time; When the operation duration is equal to or longer than the predetermined time, the game value can be counted in units of two or more predetermined numbers, the performance control means controls the sound output means to output a specific sound different from the predetermined sound when the operation duration is equal to or longer than the predetermined time; the game value control means is capable of outputting to the external device a first signal whose on state is for a first period when the operation duration is less than the predetermined time, and outputting to the external device a second signal whose on state is for a second period longer than the first period when the operation duration is equal to or greater than the predetermined time; When the operation duration is equal to or longer than the predetermined time, the performance control means starts outputting the specific sound after a third period, which is longer than the first period and shorter than the second period, from the on-edge of the second signal.
