When managing a game machine installed in a game hall, it is easy to grasp the degree of contribution by evaluating each model based on the sales amount, operating status, etc. as in Patent Document 1, for example.

Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 2000-24277

In a known example, as disclosed in FIG. 11, a model evaluation is proposed by outputting a graph showing corresponding coordinate information based on sales contribution, gross profit contribution, operation contribution, and growth potential. However, if coordinate information corresponding to such a large number of types of game information is arranged, the graph may be difficult for the administrator to see unless the administrator has some experience. In this case, if the coordinate information corresponds to two types of game information, the graph can be easy for the administrator to see, but the amount of information is insufficient with only the two types of game information, and it becomes difficult to evaluate an appropriate game machine. There is also a risk.

The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and an object of the present invention is to provide a playground system capable of reducing the possibility that a graph becomes difficult to see while maintaining an appropriate amount of information.

When the coordinate information corresponding to the first game information and the second game information is output to the graph, the coordinate information corresponding to the model to be compared in different output modes according to the comparison result between the history information and the reference information. Is arranged, so that it is possible to reduce the risk that the graph becomes difficult to see while maintaining an appropriate amount of information.

Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
FIG. 1 is a schematic view showing the overall configuration of the amusement park system. A large number of gaming machines 1 (of a plurality of models) are installed in the game hall A, and a gaming device 2 is installed corresponding to each gaming machine 1. Two of these game machines 1 and two game devices 2 are connected to the relay device 3, and the relay device 3 is connected to the management device 5 (information management means, output means, history management means, first history management means, via LAN 4). It is connected to a comparison means, an arrangement means, an information specifying means, a first setting means, a second setting means, a management means, and a first management means). Further, a POS and a balance settlement machine (none of which are shown) are also installed in the amusement park A, and these POS and the balance settlement machine are also connected to the management device 5 via the LAN 4. Although not shown in FIG. 1, in reality, for example, several hundred gaming machines 1 are managed by the management device 5. The management device 5 is installed in, for example, an office in the game hall A, and is connected to a keyboard 6, a monitor 7, a printer (not shown) and the like operated by the manager of the game hall. By inputting a game signal output from the game machine side (game machine 1, game device 2, etc.), the management device 5 receives game data for each game machine 1, personal data for each member registered as a member, and a game machine. It manages the operating state of 1 and the gaming device 2.

In the game hall system, a game hall having the same configuration as the game machine 1, the game device 2, the relay device 3, the LAN 4, the management device 5, etc. installed in the game hall A is different (in the example of FIG. 1, the game hall). It is also installed in B, amusement park C). Each management device 5 installed in each of these amusement parks A to C is a game information server 9 (a game information server 9) installed separately from each of the amusement parks A to C via a public line 8 such as the Internet or VPN connection. It is connected to the history management means, the second history management means, the management means, and the second management means), and is configured to be able to communicate various signals and various information with the game information server 9 via the public line 8 or the like. ing.

The gaming machine 1 is a CR (card reader) pachinko gaming machine, and has an operation handle 11, an upper tray 12, and a lower tray 13 that constitute a launching device that launches a ball on the board 10, and a liquid crystal display unit on the board 10. It has 14, a general drawing winning opening 15, a first starting opening 16, a second starting opening 17, and a large winning opening 18.

The gaming machine 1 operates as shown below.
(1) The first starting port 16 is a winning opening whose winning rate does not fluctuate (so-called navel winning opening), and the second starting opening 17 is a winning opening whose winning rate fluctuates (so-called electric chew). A big hit lottery is performed according to the winnings (starting winnings) to the starting ports 16 and 17, and the lottery result is notified by the symbol variation performed on the liquid crystal display unit 14, and the jackpot is obtained according to the fluctuation result.

(2) If a start prize is won during the symbol change, the symbol change is cumulatively held up to a predetermined holding upper limit value (for example, 4 each), and the held symbol change is started after the symbol change is completed. If the starting prize is won while the number of pending symbol fluctuations (number of pending symbols) is the upper limit, the symbol fluctuations are not suspended.

(3) The winning probability (big hit probability) of the big hit lottery is 1/260, and the probability change rate, which is the ratio of the big hit to the big hit (probability change big hit) that becomes the probability change state (probability change) after that, is (both normal state and probability change state). ) 66.6%. When a big hit occurs, the big winning opening 18 is opened by the corresponding round (R). The maximum number of winnings in 1R is 9, the maximum opening time is 30 seconds, and 1R ends when either the maximum number of winnings or the maximum opening time is satisfied.

(4) The corresponding round is also drawn in the same way as the big hit lottery, and the distribution rate is 55% for 4R and 45% for 15R when the first starting port 16 is won, but the second starting port 17 In the case of winning a prize, 4R is 10%, 15R is 90%, and the priority of pending digestion of the symbol change according to the prize is set higher in the second starting port 17 than in the first starting port 16. There is.

(5) During the probability change, the jackpot probability is improved to 1/74, and the winning rate for each of the starting ports 16 and 17 is increased, resulting in a time saving state (time saving). Since the probability change continues until the next big hit, it continues until a big hit (normal big hit) that becomes a normal game state (normal state) that is neither a big hit nor a probability change occurs after the big hit, and then a predetermined number (for example, 100 times). ) Will be shortened until the symbol changes.

(6) The second start opening 17 is in an open state with a high winning rate when a normal symbol (general figure) that fluctuates according to the winning of the general drawing winning opening 15 is hit. In this case, the fluctuation time of one normal figure is 30 seconds in the normal state and 3 seconds in the time saving state. Further, the opening period is 0.3 seconds once in the normal state and 5 seconds twice in the time saving state. That is, in the short time state, the fluctuation time of the normal figure is shorter than in the normal state, while the opening period is lengthened or the number of times of opening is increased, so that the winning rate of the second starting port 17 is increased. The above is an example of model A among a plurality of models of gaming machines 1 installed in the game hall A, but for example, model B has different jackpot probabilities and round distributions, and so on. It becomes a specification.

The game machine 1 and the peripheral devices attached to the game machine 1 output the following game signals as the game progresses, such as the player driving a ball and starting a prize at each of the starting ports 16 and 17. ..
Out signal = A signal that can specify the consumption value (out) output from the out BOX that collects the consumed balls. Since one pulse is output for every 10 consumed (used, driven, collected) balls, "the number of out signals x 10" is specified as out. The signal output from the gaming machine 1 may be used.

Safe signal = A signal output from the gaming machine 1 that can identify the winning value (safe). Since one pulse is output for every 10 balls to be paid out, "the number of safe signals x 10" is specified as safe. The replenishment signal output from the replenishment device may be used as a safe signal. In addition, there are an actual safe signal that is output when the ball is actually paid out and a winning safe signal that is output when the payout is reserved according to the winning, but in order to minimize the time lag from winning to output. It is desirable to adopt the latter.

Start signal = Start processing (design variation, character operation, unit game) and start (start processing) in the liquid crystal display unit 14 (feature) that fluctuates (operates) according to the start prize (specific prize) output from the gaming machine 1. It is a signal that can specify the number). Since it is output when the symbol variation is confirmed, the start process is specified according to the signal input, and the "start signal x 1" is specified as the number of starts (number of start processes). It may be used as a signal indicating a prize to the first starting port 16 or the second starting port 17.

Jackpot signal = A signal that can specify the jackpot period output from the gaming machine 1. Since it is a state signal whose level is output during the big hit, the input of the big hit signal is specified as the big hit.
Special state signal = A signal that can identify the special state (sweet middle) output from the gaming machine 1. Since the level is output during the special state (during the time reduction (including the probability change)) in which the winning rate of the second starting port 17 is improved, the input of the special state signal is specified as the special state. Further, the period during which neither the jackpot signal nor the special state signal is input is specified as the normal state.

The gaming device 2 is a so-called lending machine with a counting function for each machine, and is a status indicator 19 indicating the gaming state of the gaming machine 1, a coin slot 20 into which money (money value, valuable value) is inserted, and a player. A touch-sensitive LCD display unit 21 that accepts the operation input of and displays game data such as the number of symbol fluctuations (number of starts) and the probability of big hits as the game progresses. , Valuable value) payout button 22, payout nozzle 23 through which the paid out balls pass, card insertion slot 24 into which general cards and membership cards are inserted, and located below the lower tray 13 of the gaming machine 1. It has a detachable counting tray 25, a camera 26 that captures an image of a player playing the corresponding gaming machine 1, and the like.

The game device 2 has the following functions.
(1) When money is accepted (money acceptance processing), the deposit amount is displayed on both the game machine 1 and the game device 2, and the loan ball (value added) for one unit of loan (for example, 500 yen) is displayed on the game machine. It is made to be paid out from 1 (compensation granting process), and the deposit amount is displayed according to the consideration granting process as the balance excluding the consideration of the loaned ball. Money can be accepted for multiple times of consideration grant processing (for example, up to 10,000 yen).

(2) When the lending button of the gaming machine 1 is pressed (lending operation, granting operation) while there is a balance, the lending balls for one unit of lending are paid out from the gaming machine 1 and the consideration is deducted from the balance. .. In addition, it is also equipped with a so-called counting function for each machine, and it is possible to count the acquired balls acquired by the player and refund the balls again with the counted acquired balls as consideration, excluding the consideration for the refund. It is also possible to specify the number as a ball.

(3) When the return button of the gaming machine 1 is pressed (issue operation) with the balance and the balls remaining, a general card capable of identifying the remaining balls and the balls is issued. It should be noted that split issuance that targets a part of the balance or possession balls is not possible for the sake of simplification of explanation, but it may be possible.

(4) An imaging signal that can identify the image captured by the camera 26 is output.
(5) Through serial communication (output of sales signal) with the relay device 3, the management device 5 performs money reception processing, consideration grant processing, balance and number of lent balls, deposit amount, number of lent balls, and sales that are the consideration for lent balls. It is possible to specify the amount, counting ball, possession ball, refund ball, and reception and issuance processing of general cards, but these can also be pulse signals (for example, 1 pulse for every 1000 yen deposited, 1 pulse for every 100 yen sold, etc.). It can be identified.

The management device 5 inputs various information output from the game machine 1 and the game device 2, and manages the game history and the like for each player shown in FIG. 2 and the normal game information and the like. When the management device 5 inputs an image pickup signal from the game device 2, it detects the player based on the image specified by the image pickup signal, and when it detects the player, it authenticates the face of the player and sets the player. It is determined whether or not it has already been detected (including other units), and if it has not been detected, a player ID is assigned, while if it has already been detected, a previously assigned player ID is assigned. When the management device 5 detects a player, it creates a record in FIG. 2 and records the start time, records the subsequent game information in association with the record, and records the end time when the player is no longer detected. To record. Further, the management device 5 identifies and records the gender and age of the player by face recognition. The meaning of each item in the game history shown in FIG. 2 is as follows.

NO = serial number assigned to the record.
Start = game start time.
End = game end time.

Out, safe, S, jackpot = game information specified by the game signal. In addition, S is the number of starts. In addition, game information that is not illustrated, such as the sales amount, is also subject to management.
Player = an ID that can identify the player given each time the player is specified, and when the same player is specified, the same ID is given.

Gender, age = Gender and age of the player specified by face recognition, etc.
The game time is converted by the game time = out (for example, 1 hour = 5000 out).
The management device 5 manages the game history for each player created in this way and transmits the game information to the game information server 9. The game information server 9 receives and aggregates game information transmitted from a plurality of game fields. The management device 5 does not necessarily have to transmit the game history to the game information server 9 as a transmission target, and any game as long as the game information can specify the game information including the customer information shown in FIG. 6 to be described later. The information may be transmitted to the game information server 9 as a transmission target.

The management device 5 and the game information server 9 manage the model names grouped according to the type such as "Max" according to the characteristics of the model in association with the serial number. In addition, the model name is set with the nationwide introduction date as the first appearance date (common first appearance time), and these are managed in association with the above-mentioned game information.

Further, the management device 5 and the game information server 9 specify the game time by the outs, such as by associating 5000 outs with one hour as described above, and the overall operating time of the game machine 1 and the operation of each player. The customer game time, which is the time, is specified, and the average out, the average operating time, or the average customer game time per player is specified for each model. The game time may be specified in any way, such as the period from the start to the end, without specifying it by out.

FIG. 3 shows an example of an output screen of the position form 1 showing the result of totaling a plurality of game information managed by the game information server 9 specified as shown in FIG. On the output screen of the position form 1, the range to which the first appearance date belongs is selected by the first appearance week selection unit 31a, and the model corresponding to that range is output. In the example of FIG. 3, the model whose first appearance date corresponds to "August 2016-" is the output target. Further, the output selection unit 31b selects a game information aggregation period, and the game information corresponding to the aggregation period is output. In the example of FIG. 3, "3 days after introduction (including weekends and holidays)" is the aggregation period of game information, and "3 days after introduction (weekdays only)", "7 days after introduction", and "8 after introduction". "10th to 10th day", "8th to 14th day after introduction", "14 days after introduction", etc. can be selected.

Either "4 yen pachinko model" or "20 yen pachislot model" can be selected as the type selection unit 31c, and the type of gaming machine, the distinction between pachinko and slot machines, the distinction between unit rental prices, etc. can be selected. .. The selected type is identified and displayed, and in the example of FIG. 3, the "4 yen pachinko machine" is targeted. When "4 yen pachinko model" is selected, the type selection unit 31d is "all", "minimum", "light", "light middle", "middle", or "max" according to the playability. The type can be selected, and the type to be output (see FIG. 2) can be selected. The selected type is identified and displayed, and in the example of FIG. 3, "all", that is, all models are targeted. When such a condition is selected, a model that meets the condition is extracted, and the corresponding game information is output as shown in FIG.

In the graph display unit 31e, which is the left half of the output screen of the position form 1, the horizontal axis (first axis) is the model out (average out per unit, first game information, current game information), and the vertical axis. With (axis 2) as the customer game time (average operating time per player, second game information, customer information), the outs specified for each model and the customer game time are displayed at the corresponding points on the graph. Placed (coordinate information is placed). The center of the graph is the average value of the out and the total guest game time, and the out is specified as "14785" and the customer game time is specified as "1:22" as the average value (numerical display unit described later). See also the bottom row of 31f). Also, when placed on the graph, the upper right side (the division where the out and the customer playing time are high) is green, the lower right side (the division where the out is high but the customer playing time is low) is blue, and the upper left side (the out is low). The lower left side (the category where both the out and the customer game time are low) is colored orange, and the customer game time is classified according to the game tendency. In FIG. 3, these green, blue, orange, and pink coloring categories are indicated by "green", "blue", "orange", and "peach", respectively.

A list of the extracted models is output in the numerical display unit 31f, which is the right half of the output screen of the position form 1, and whether or not to display in the graph display unit 31e is displayed in the check box of the graph display check unit 31g. The classification according to the above-mentioned game tendency is indicated by the coloring of the tendency display unit 31h, the first appearance date (first appearance time) and the model name are shown, and the model name is displayed on the graph display unit 31e. Whether or not to select is selected by the check box of the model name display check unit 31i, and the out and the customer game time are displayed numerically. Among the models to be extracted, the models belonging to the top 10% are colored blue, and the models belonging to the bottom 10% are colored red. In the example of FIG. 3, the out and customer game time of model A, the out of models K, L, and M, and the customer game time of model I are the top 10%, and they are hatched in the upward-sloping direction to be colored in blue. It is shown by. Further, in the example of FIG. 3, it is shown by hatching in the downward-sloping direction that the customer game time of the models N and Q is the lower 10% and is colored in red. Note that the model whose first appearance date is close to the output time (for example, within 2 weeks) or the latest first appearance date is colored in yellow, and in the example of FIG. 3, the output time is "2017/02/07". For example, the model F whose first appearance date is "2017/01/30" is colored in yellow. In the example of FIG. 3, it is shown by a thick frame that it is colored in yellow.

4 and 5 are setting information for changing the output target of the position form 1 of FIG. 3, and show a setting screen displayed by pressing the setting button 31j shown in FIG. With reference to FIGS. 4 and 5, it is possible to set the target items of the X-axis and the Y-axis, the reference point (center of the graph), the maximum value, and the like.

FIG. 7 aggregates game information by unit period (1 week) from the introduction date (game hall unit) of the model managed by the game information server 9 for a plurality of game venues based on the aggregation as described in FIG. This is the completed form (history information). Out (1st history information) and gross profit (2nd history information) indicate the average value per unit of the amusement park on 1 business day, the number of units indicates the number of units installed on 1 business day, and the period average out is introduced. It shows the average value of outs per vehicle for one business day from the day to the end date of the relevant period, and the cumulative gross profit per vehicle shows the average cumulative gross profit per vehicle from the introduction date. The gross profit such as the gross profit of the pachinko machine indicates the profit of the game hall obtained by operating the gaming machine 1 indicated by, for example, "sales amount- (sales ball + safe-out) x exchange unit price". The gross profit is well-known game information indicating the base gross profit per out ball obtained by dividing the base gross profit by the out.

A cumulative gross profit standard value (for example, "300,000 yen") is set for the cumulative gross profit based on the purchase price of the gaming machine 1, and the cumulative gross profit is compared with the cumulative gross profit standard value. When the gross profit reaches the cumulative gross profit reference value, it is identified and output (in the example of FIG. 7, after the 4th week). For out, an out reference value (reference information, operation reference information) is set based on the average value of out for all models to be managed (hereinafter, overall), and the out reference value is set for each unit period, for example. In the 5th week, "17000" is set, and the out and out reference values are compared for each unit period, and when the out does not reach the out reference value, identification output is performed (in the example of FIG. 7, 5 weeks). After the eyes). Gross profit standard values (standard information, gross profit standard information) are set for the gross profit based on the average value of the total gross profit, and the gross profit standard value is set for each unit period, for example, the 8th week. In, "4000 yen" is set, and the base gross profit and the gross profit standard value are compared for each unit period, and when the base gross profit does not reach the base gross profit standard value, identification output is performed (Fig. 7). In the example of, after the 8th week).

In Fig. 7, the end of out contribution is specified in the unit period when the out does not reach the out reference value for the first time from the introduction date (5th week in the example of Fig. 7), while the end of out contribution is specified for the first time after the end of out contribution. The end of total contribution (after the 8th week in the example of FIG. 7) is specified in the unit period when the gross profit on the table does not reach the standard value of gross profit on the table (end of gross profit contribution). In this way, the out-contribution end week (operation comparison result) and the total contribution end week (comprehensive comparison result) are specified as the contribution week (normal information, history identification information, comparison result, satisfaction period) for each model. Here, both the out-contribution end week and the total contribution end week are specified and managed, but only one of them may be specified and managed. Further, in FIG. 7, the 8th week after the end of the total contribution is not included in the aggregation target, but if the game information can be specified, the unit period after the end of the total contribution may also be the aggregation target.

FIG. 8 shows an example in which the output conditions of the position form are changed, such as changing the type to “light middle” from FIG. When a model is selected on the numerical display unit 31f as shown by the blowout A1 in FIG. 8, the corresponding points displayed on the graph display unit 31e are highlighted so as to be surrounded by a blue circle (in the example of FIG. 8). When the point displayed on the graph display unit 31e is selected as shown by the model I) and the blowout A2, the values of the X-axis and the Y-axis are displayed in a separate frame, and the corresponding contribution week explained in FIG. 7 is displayed. It is highlighted so that it is displayed (in the example of FIG. 8, model E, out “19717”, customer game time “2:10”).

FIG. 9 is an enlarged view of a part of the graph display unit 31e of FIG. 8, but first, setting items such as the reference contribution week, which are not described in FIG. 4, will be described. As explained in Fig. 7 above, there are operation contribution week and total contribution week in the contribution week. In the contribution week selection in Fig. 4, the contribution week is not referred to. In addition to "None", the operation contribution week is selected. You can select any contribution week by selecting "Operating" if you want to make a contribution week, and selecting "Comprehensive" if you want to make a total contribution week. In addition, the standard contribution week is an item that allows the standard contribution week to be set for each of the operation contribution week and the total contribution week.

In the highlighting of the graph display unit 31e described with reference to FIG. 8, both contribution weeks are displayed regardless of the selected contribution week, but as shown in FIG. 9, the display mode of the graph display unit 31e is changed for the selected contribution week. Set to. That is, as described with reference to FIG. 7, the display mode is changed depending on whether or not the selected contribution week is determined as the contribution end week. Specifically, if the end of contribution week is not specified, green is used as the output color as contributing, and if the end of contribution week is specified, red is used as the output color as the end of contribution. In this way, when the contribution end week is not specified, green is used as the output color as contributing, and when the contribution end week is specified, red is used as the output color as the contribution end, according to the first comparison result. Corresponds to arranging coordinate information in different output modes. In addition, if the contribution is in progress, the current contribution week is compared, and if the contribution is completed, the contribution end week is compared with the reference contribution week (reference period) set in Fig. 4, and the contribution week, contribution end week, etc. are satisfied. If the period reaches the standard contribution week, half of the dots will be white, and if not, the dots will be filled with the above output color (green or red). In this way, when the contribution week or the contribution end week reaches the standard contribution week, half of the points are made white, and when they do not reach the contribution end week, the points are filled with the above output color, which differs depending on the second comparison result. Corresponds to arranging coordinate information in the output mode. For example, the points shown in the blowout A3 in FIG. 9 indicate that green and white are halved, indicating that the contribution is in progress and the standard contribution week has been reached.

10 and 11 are forms that are switched when the form button 31k is pressed in FIG. 3 and the like, FIG. 10 shows form information, and FIG. 11 shows customer base information. Note that FIGS. 10 and 11 can be switched by operating the changeover button 31l. In FIGS. 10 and 11, numerical values and the like are colored in yellow, blue, and red as in FIG. 3, but all forms including the forms in FIG. 3 and the like are managed by the game information server 9. Since the output can be performed by the device 5, when the output is performed by the management device 5, the model name installed in the corresponding game hall to be managed by the corresponding management device 5 as shown in FIGS. 10 and 11 ★ (model introduced in own store) is attached in front. For the contribution week, the contribution is colored in green and the end of contribution is colored in red. In FIGS. 10 and 11, the items of customer game time, loser game time, customer turnover R, investment amount R, marginal investment, win rate, win amount, number of people divided by age, game time, and number of women are shown in FIG. As shown in 2, the information (customer information) is used after identifying the player, but this information has an upper limit of the appearance aggregation period (for example, 2 months, aggregation deadline), which is the aggregation period calculated from the first appearance date. And the aggregation period of customer information is terminated within a predetermined period from the date of first appearance. This is because the customer information is information indicating the attractiveness (potential) of the gaming machine and tends to decrease according to the elapsed period from the first appearance date.

On the other hand, the normal information, which is the normal game information as shown in FIG. 7, is the history information according to the introduction totaling period, which is the totaling period calculated from the introduction date at the game hall, but is introduced according to the game hall. Since the dates are different, each history information is classified according to the elapsed period from the introduction date at each amusement park. To give a specific example, if the first appearance date is March 6th, and if it is introduced on the first appearance date at the game hall A and on May 8th at the game hall B, the information of the game hall A will be March 6th. Week is divided into the first week, but in amusement park B, the week of May 8 is divided into the first week. The week of May 8th at Amusement Park A will be the 10th week. In this way, since normal information grasps the actual operating status and gross profit status, it is necessary to slide and manage it according to the time of introduction as described above, and manage it regardless of whether or not the aggregation deadline is reached. Manage as a target. On the other hand, since customer information is information that indicates the attractiveness of a gaming machine, it is not managed by sliding it like normal information, but is managed by setting an upper limit for the elapsed period. That is, the customer information is not subject to management even if the introduction aggregation period, which is the aggregation period calculated from the introduction time of the model at the amusement park that is the specific source, has not reached the aggregation deadline. It should be noted that ending the aggregation of customer information after the elapsed period from the first appearance date is not subject to management by the management device 5 at each game hall, and is subject to management by the management device 5, but the game information server. It may be performed by at least one of not targeting transmission to 9 and targeting transmission from the management device 5 but not targeting management by the game information server 9. Further, although the customer information can be selected from FIG. 6, the selection range may be divided and selected in FIGS. 10 and 11. When the graph button 31m is pressed in FIGS. 10 and 11, the process switches to FIG. 3 and the like described above.

12 and 13 are examples of forms displayed when a 20-yen pachislot machine is selected by type selection from FIGS. 10 and 11. Although the type of the target gaming machine 1 is changed and there are differences in the type selection and the like, the display is the same as in FIGS. 10 and 11.

As described above, according to the present embodiment, the following effects can be obtained.
In the amusement park system, when the coordinate information corresponding to the out and the customer game time is output to the graph, it corresponds to the model to be compared in different output modes according to the comparison result between the history information and the reference information. Since the coordinate information is arranged, it is possible to reduce the possibility that the graph becomes difficult to see while maintaining an appropriate amount of information. In this case, since the output mode of the points differs depending on the comparison result of the history information, that is, the degree of contribution to the model, it is possible to grasp the out and the customer game time from the graph after grasping the degree of contribution to the model.

In addition, since it is an integrated output mode that indicates the judgment result of whether the contribution is in progress or the contribution is completed and the judgment result of whether or not the contribution week has reached the reference week, it is determined whether the contribution is in progress or the contribution is completed in the point output mode. You can refer to the graph after grasping whether or not the contribution week has reached the reference week.

Model contribution is game information according to a certain absolute standard common to multiple amusement parks, so it is sufficient to contribute to game information according to a certain standard common to multiple amusement parks and up to this week. Or, it is possible to refer to the graph after grasping the output mode of both points with the game information according to the standard of each game hall, such as the model cannot be said to have contributed unless it contributes until about this week.

By selectively using the operation contribution and the total contribution as the criteria for changing the display mode, it is possible to flexibly output points in different output modes depending on whether the amusement park emphasizes the operation contribution or the total contribution. Can be done.

In addition, when the customer information specified in multiple amusement machines is integrated and managed for each model, the customer information that has reached the aggregation deadline calculated from the first appearance date is not managed (for example, half a year from the first appearance date). Customer information in pachinko machines introduced after a while is not subject to management, etc.), and by cutting off the aggregation period of customer information within a predetermined period from the time of first appearance, it is possible to appropriately manage data showing the attractiveness of pachinko machines. ..

In addition, since normal information, which is normal game information, is subject to aggregation even if the model has reached the aggregation deadline, game information that reflects the current game information is managed as information indicating the operation of the gaming machine. can do.

In addition, when specifying the operation contribution, it is determined whether the contribution is made on a weekly basis according to the elapsed period from the introduction date in each game hall, so that the operation information should be appropriately determined according to the elapsed period. Can be done.

In addition, since customer information, current status out, and contribution week are output in a comparable manner, the model can be evaluated from various perspectives.
In addition, the model that has reached the upper limit of the deadline is not the management target of the management device 5, the transmission target from the management device 5 to the game information server 9, or the transmission target to the game information server 9, so that the customer information is managed. Can be properly excluded from.

The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and can be modified or extended as follows. It should be noted that any combination of the illustrated configurations including the following modified examples may be used, it may not be appropriately adopted, and only one of a plurality of illustrated configurations may be adopted.

As the customer information, it is illustrated that the gender, age, etc. are specified by person authentication. For example, the customer game time, the number of customer rotations, etc. can be specified by detecting the customer change without specifying the player's attribute information. Is. If such customer information is targeted for management, it is possible to manage customer information by detecting customer changes depending on, for example, the reception status of general cards. That is, to detect a player, it is sufficient to detect a change of player or the like without detecting the player himself / herself.

Even when specifying the attribute information, for example, the player may be specified by the membership card, and the attribute information of the player may be specified by the attribute information of the membership card. And not limited to a specific method.

As the current game information, the latest information managed by the game information server, for example, the information of the previous day can be exemplified, but the information of the day may be used, or the information for this week or last week may be the current game status. Any period of information may be used as long as the information indicates. Similarly, the first appearance date does not necessarily have to be limited to days such as the first appearance week if the first appearance time is indicated, and the operation contribution does not necessarily have to be weekly such as 10 days.

It is illustrated that the customer information of the model that has reached the aggregation deadline is not managed at all. For example, the first customer information that finishes aggregation according to the aggregation deadline and the second customer information that aggregates regardless of the aggregation deadline are managed. As a result, only the first customer information may not be subject to aggregation.

As the display mode of the points, only two types of output targets, whether or not the contribution has been completed or whether or not the reference week has been reached, have been illustrated. Half of the points may be colored differently depending on the divergence period from the week. Further, as the output mode, other output modes such as deforming the shape may be used, or other game information may be adopted as long as it can be specified by the comparison result of the history information.

Although it is illustrated that the display mode is changed depending on whether or not the contribution is completed and the comparison result between the reference week and the contribution week, the point output mode may be changed depending on the comparison result of only one of them. Similarly, although it is illustrated that both customer information and normal information are managed, only one of them may be managed.

Although the information of the game information server 9 can be browsed by the management device 5, for example, it may be browsed by a display device or the like that does not need to be installed in the game hall, such as a normal personal computer or a mobile phone. However, it is desirable to be able to specify the target game field by inputting an ID or the like.

Numerical values, the number of digits, items, etc. are examples, and any numerical value may be adopted. Further, the identification output may be any output mode such as adding a symbol other than the example, and print and display output are assumed as the output.

Each setting value can be set by downloading the setting information from an external server (for example, chain store headquarters, etc.) regardless of whether the administrator arbitrarily sets it by operation input or the manufacturer of the management device 5 sets it in advance. You may.

All the illustrated game information may be directly specified by the input signal or indirectly by using the calculation formula, and the mode is not only the operation input but also the game in which the mode can be specified from the game machine 1. Of course, if a signal is output, it may be specified by the game signal. Further, as the model, any classification may be made as long as the type of the gaming machine 1 is shown, such as a maker unit or a spec unit.

Either of the above and the excess may be adopted, and the expression such as "reached" corresponds to either the above or the excess. The same applies to the following and less than, and expressions such as "not reached" correspond to both.

As the target gaming machine 1, a pachinko gaming machine, a slot machine, or the like other than the so-called enclosed type pachinko gaming machine that manages the gaming medium only with data can also be adopted. In consideration of the so-called enclosed type and the like, the game medium is expressed as a game value as necessary.

A part of the processing performed by the management device 5 may be performed by the relay device 3, the game device 2, or the like. Further, the processing performed by the game information server 9 is performed by the management device 5, the processing performed by the management device 5 is performed by the game information server 9, and the statistical information and the like are specified only by the management device 5 without providing the game information server 9. It may be configured in any way, such as specifying the correction output rate.

In the drawing, 1 is a gaming machine, 5 is a management device (information management means, output means, history management means, first history management means, comparison means, arrangement means, information identification means, first setting means, second setting means, Management means, first management means), 9 is a game information server (history management means, second history management means, management means, second management means).
