Abstract

To provide a game machine capable of setting a stack pointer and executing an initialization process for determining a clearing range of a RAM in an efficient and simple configuration.SOLUTION: A main RAM 4203 includes a game area intended for games and an out-of-region area not intended for games. Further, a stack provided in the game area is utilized by a process pertaining to the game area, and a stack provided in the out-of-region area is utilized by a process pertaining to the out-of-region area. When a process pertaining to the out-of-region area is called, a stack pointer of a stack provided in the out-of-region area is set. When power is turned on, a CRC of a designated region is calculated.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 117

Claims

[Claim 1] A gaming machine equipped with control means for controlling gameplay, A game state control means capable of controlling the game state to at least one of the following game states: a normal game state and a specific game state that is different in degree of advantage to the player from the normal game state; A special game state control means capable of controlling the game to a special game state in which a predetermined game value can be assigned to the player according to the results of the game, A counting means capable of counting information regarding the number of game values ​​assigned to a player, A game stopping means capable of stopping the game based on the information regarding the game value counted by the counting means reaching a predetermined value, A storage means capable of storing information relating to the game value, A notification control means capable of controlling the notification, Equipped with, The notification control means can be controlled to execute a predetermined notification when a predetermined start condition is met, while the information regarding the number of game values ​​counted by the counting means is within a predetermined counting range that has not reached the predetermined value. The predetermined counting range is, It includes at least a first counting range below a specific boundary value and a second counting range from above the specific boundary value to below a predetermined value, The storage means includes an internal storage area and an external storage area different from the internal storage area. The notification control means is, When the information regarding the game value counted by the counting means is within the first counting range and the first start condition is met, it is possible to control the system to execute a first notification regarding a predetermined pre-announcement notification. When the information regarding the game value counted by the counting means is within the second counting range, and a second start condition different from the first start condition is met, it is possible to control the system to execute a second notification related to a predetermined pre-announcement notification. When the information regarding the game value counted by the counting means is greater than or equal to the predetermined value, and the game is not stopped by the game stopping means, it is possible to control the execution of a third notification different from the first notification and the second notification. When the information regarding the game value counted by the counting means is greater than or equal to the predetermined value, and the game is stopped by the game stopping means, it is possible to control the system to execute a specific notification that the game has been stopped. At least the second notification is a notification capable of indicating information relating to the number of game values ​​counted by the counting means, The third notification is a notification that can be executed when the game is controlled to the special game state, but is not executed when the game is controlled to the normal game state or the specific game state. The aforementioned specific notification is, This is a display that can be executed when the game is stopped while the game is controlled to the normal game state or the specific game state, but cannot be executed when the game is controlled to the special game state. The storage means stores the difference information corresponding to the game value counted by the counting means in the extra-area storage area. The control means is capable of transmitting the difference information to the notification control means. The notification control means is controllable to perform the first notification or the second notification based on the received difference information. The difference information is information that includes information on the upper value, which consists of values ​​with a predetermined number of digits, but does not include information on the lower value, which consists of values ​​with a predetermined number of digits. A gaming machine characterized by the following features.
