Gaming machine

Abstract

The purpose is to enhance the enjoyment of the game. [Solution] In a gaming machine, the game control microprocessor comprises a CPU, a program executed by the CPU, a ROM storing information referenced by the program, a RAM capable of storing information updated by the program, a general-purpose register, a data register, and a flag register. The CPU writes first information to the RAM at the start of a variation performance indicating the result of a lottery. When the power to the gaming machine is cut off during the execution of the variation performance and then power is turned on to the gaming machine, the CPU reads the first information from the RAM and transmits it to the performance control microprocessor. When the variation performance resumes after the machine has entered a waiting state for customers, the CPU reads the first information from the RAM and transmits it to the performance control microprocessor.

Claims

1. A gaming machine comprising: a gaming control board equipped with a gaming control microprocessor for controlling the progress of the game; and a performance control board equipped with a performance control microprocessor capable of controlling the progress of the performance based on commands from the gaming control board, The aforementioned game control microprocessor is CPU and, The CPU executes a program, and a ROM containing information referenced by the program. RAM capable of storing information updated by the aforementioned program, It comprises a general-purpose register, a data register, and a flag register. The aforementioned CPU is At the start of the variation animation indicating the result of the lottery, the first information is written to the RAM. When the power to the gaming machine is cut off during the execution of the aforementioned variation effect, and then power is restored to the gaming machine, the first information is read from the RAM and transmitted to the effect control microprocessor. After entering a customer waiting state, when the variable performance is resumed, the first information is read from the RAM and transmitted to the performance control microprocessor. A gaming machine characterized by the following features.

2. A gaming machine according to claim 1, The first information includes at least one of the following: information relating to the game state when the variation performance is performed; information relating to the variation performance that was held in reserve when the variation performance was performed; and information relating to a predetermined counter number stored in the RAM. A gaming machine characterized by the following features.
