Description

[Detailed explanation of the idea] [Industrial application field] The present invention relates to an electric slot machine.

[Prior Art] Recently, many electric slot machines have been installed in game centers and pachinko parlors, and like pachinko, they have come to play a part in popular entertainment.

By the way, in the case of pachinko, by observing the condition of the nails on the surface of each pachinko machine, it is possible to determine to some extent whether or not the machine produces good balls, and this is one of the criteria for selecting a pachinko machine. It is becoming. However, the current situation is that electric slot machines do not have anything comparable to the nails in a pachinko machine that serve as criteria for machine selection, and it is difficult to know whether or not a machine is popular until you actually play the game.

On the other hand, with slot machines and game machines that combine pachinko and slot machines, the game content is often complex, and players are given information such as betting points, payout in the event of a hit, or the number of remaining pachinko balls or medals. Some games are equipped with a display that digitally displays information important to the progress of the game (Japanese Patent Publication No. 57-26146, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 100841-1982, Japanese Patent Application Laid-open No. 148973-1984, etc.).

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] However, in such game machines, the display itself only provides current information to the player, and does not serve as a criterion for selecting a game machine.

The purpose of the present invention is to provide a means for selecting a machine corresponding to a nail in a pachinko machine for an electric slot machine.

[Means for Solving the Problems] The electric slot machine of the present invention has a display section on the top of each machine that displays the number of hits per day from the opening of the slot by type of win, and further displays the total number of hits. It is characterized by the fact that it is provided.

[Effect] A player who is looking for a machine to play a game should select a machine based on his or her previous experience, referring to machines that have a good number of large hits or machines that have already produced large hits. can do. Therefore, the player's preferences and skill can be reflected in the selection of the machine itself.

[Embodiments] Next, embodiments of the electric slot machine of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings, but the present invention is not limited to these embodiments.

FIG. 1 is a schematic perspective view of an electric slot machine, in which three reels 1 are rotated by pressing a lever 2, each reel 1 is stopped by pressing a stop switch 3, and the combinations of symbols on the stopped reels are Then, pay out the medal. Although this differs depending on the model, the types of combinations of patterns and lines of combinations are usually displayed on the center board 4, and the upper board 5 has notes and various illustrations drawn on it.

The present invention provides a display section for displaying the number of hits of a winning combination up to that point in such an electric slot machine (a display section 6 that displays the number of individual hits and a display section 7 that displays the total number of hits shown in Fig. 2). It is characterized by the provision of . Such a display section may be placed on the upper board 5 as shown in FIG. 1, or may be placed on the top surface of the slot machine as shown in FIG. The important thing is that the number of hits for a winning combination is placed at a position above the table where it can be easily seen by a player looking for the table. Therefore, in a place where a large number of slot machines are arranged or in the case of a table-top slot machine, it is preferable to separately provide a display 8 on the top surface of the slot machine as shown in FIG.

Display parts 6, 7 or display 8 are equipped with LEDs or LCDs.
Or neon tubes can be used.
