<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a pinball game machine that provides a novel latent-mode system, which allows a player to have expectations for the start of a latent mode, in addition to the expectations for the possibility of a variable-probability game. <P>SOLUTION: In the Pachinko game machine 10, a special game execution means 122 enters, if a result of a lottery shows a predetermined kind of winning, a variable-probability game after a special game, while preventing the player from recognizing whether or not the result corresponds to the predetermined kind of winning. Regardless of whether the result of the lottery shows the predetermined kind of winning, the special game execution means 122 determines, at a predetermined probability corresponding to the result of the lottery, whether to start a latent mode indicating that there is a possibility of entering a variable-probability state while preventing the player from recognizing it. If the start of the latent mode is determined, an effect display control means 134 displays a stimulating effect that changes indication as to whether to start the latent mode with time, and the means 134 also displays a latent expectation degree indication effect prior to the start of the latent mode and starts the latent mode thereafter. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT |
