Gaming machine

Abstract

A single processor implements both the performance control means and the image control means, providing functionality equivalent to or better than that of a configuration with multiple processors. [Solution] The sub-control board of the pachinko machine has two frame buffers that store display data for one frame, which can be used as a drawing frame buffer and a display frame buffer, and includes control means for controlling the execution of the performance, drawing means for drawing display data for displaying the performance, and display means for displaying the display data on a display device. The drawing means repeatedly executes drawing control processing and drawing execution processing in parallel on a frame-by-frame basis, and after the step of switching the drawing frame buffer and the display frame buffer is executed in the drawing control processing for each frame, the control means sets interrupt prohibition, clears the watchdog timer, and releases interrupt prohibition before the drawing control processing for the next frame starts.

Claims

[Claim 1] A reel unit comprising a plurality of reels on which reel tapes are attached to a reel frame, The reel tape has an identification mark at a predetermined position on its back surface that allows identification of which of the multiple reel tapes it is. The reel tape has at least a pattern area on which a pattern is drawn, a background area surrounding the pattern area, and an excess area. The excess region includes at least a non-printing region and a boundary region located between the non-printing region and the background region. The excess area is an area where, when the reel tape is attached to the corresponding reel frame, at least the area having the background area is superimposed. The predetermined position is located in the excess area, and when the reel tape is attached to the corresponding reel frame, the background area is located on the outer circumferential surface side of the excess area where the predetermined position is located, and overlaps with it. The ink on the inner surface side of the background region superimposed on the excess region when the reel tape is attached to the corresponding reel frame is substantially white. The reel tape has an adhesive member for attaching it to the reel frame, The width of the adhesive member in the shorter direction is narrower than the width over which the reel tape overlaps with the reel frame. The aforementioned identification display includes at least numerical information, The identification mark is visible from the inner circumferential surface of the reel even when the reel tape is attached to the corresponding reel frame. The predetermined position is a position where the reel tape is attached to the corresponding reel frame and at least a portion of it overlaps the reel frame. In the boundary region, for the multiple halftone dots formed by printing ink, there are multiple patterns of halftone dot pitch widths in the short direction of the reel tape without changing the size of the halftone dots, and the ink is printed such that the halftone dot pitch width in the short direction of the reel tape is larger on the non-printed area side than on the background area side. A gaming machine characterized by the following features.
