Claims

【Claim 1】 Lottery means for conducting a lottery per hit, A specific start port into which a game ball can enter and trigger the lottery by the lottery means, Storage means capable of storing information related to the lottery up to a predetermined limit number, Counting means for updating a count value based on the entry of a ball into the specific start port, and comprising: It has a normal game state, a first advantageous state more advantageous than the normal game state, and a second advantageous state that is more advantageous than the normal game state but has a different display from the first advantageous state. Based on the count value reaching a specific value, it can be changed to the second advantageous state. The count value can be updated not only so as to approach the specific value when a ball enters the specific start port, but also so as to approach the specific value when a ball enters a non-start port different from the specific start port. Furthermore, within a predetermined time, the change amount of the count value within the predetermined time is larger when there are consecutive ball entries into the non-start port than when there are consecutive ball entries into the specific start port. Furthermore, it has at least a first operation unit and a second operation unit that can be operated by an administrator. After the second advantageous state in which the count value has reached the specific value and has been changed ends and the power is cut off, when a predetermined operation is performed on the first operation unit and the power is turned on, the count value is not in a state where it can be updated. When the predetermined operation is performed on the first operation unit while the second operation unit is being operated and the power is turned on, the count value is in a state where it can be updated. Furthermore, even if the information is stored up to the predetermined limit number, a ball can enter the non-start port, and based on this ball entry, the count value can be updated so as to approach the specific value. Furthermore, the non-start port is configured to be changeable between a first state where it is easy for a ball to enter and a second state where it is difficult for a ball to enter. It is possible to be in the first state when the information is stored up to the predetermined limit number, but it will not be in the first state and will be in the second state when the stored information decreases from the predetermined limit number. Furthermore, based on the count value approaching the specific value and reaching a predetermined value before reaching the specific value after a ball enters the non-start port and the count value is updated, a count display suggesting the difference until the count value reaches the specific value can be displayed on the display means. A gaming machine characterized by the above.
