Gaming apparatus and control method thereof

Abstract

A gaming apparatus of the present invention comprises: a roulette; a roulette; a result determination device for determining a result of a game with the roulette; an expected-number-of-games input device that allows an input of an expected number of games of the identical result determined continuously by the result determination device; a counting device for counting a continuous number of games of the identical result determined continuously by the result determination device; and a first prize-offering device for offering a prize, when the continuous number of games counted by the counting device is identical to the expected number of games inputted through the expected-number-of-games input device.

1 . A gaming apparatus comprising: 
 a roulette;    a result determination device for determining a result of a game with said roulette;    an expected-number-of-games input device that allows an input of an expected number of games of the identical result determined continuously by said result determination device;    a counting device for counting a continuous number of games of the identical result determined continuously by said result determination device; and    a first prize-offering device for offering a prize, when the continuous number of games counted by said counting device is identical to the expected number of games inputted through said expected-number-of-games input device.    
   
   
       2 . A gaming apparatus comprising: 
 a roulette having a wheel arranged with a plurality of number pockets to which identification numbers are assigned;    a pocket specifying device for specifying one number pocket out of said plurality of number pockets;    a winning-number determination device for determining an identification number assigned to the number pocket that said pocket specifying device has specified, as a winning number;    an expected-number-of-games input device that allows an input of an expected number of games of the identical identification number determined continuously as the winning number by said winning-number determination device;    a counting device for counting a continuous number of games of the identical identification number determined continuously as the winning number by said winning-number determination device; and    a first prize-offering device for offering a prize, when the continuous number of games counted by said counting device is identical to the expected number of games inputted through said expected-number-of-games input device.    
   
   
       3 . A gaming apparatus comprising: 
 a roulette;    a result determination device for determining a result of a game with said roulette;    a counting device for counting a continuous number of games of the identical result determined continuously by said result determination device; and    a second prize-offering device for offering a prize, when the continuous number of games counted by said counting device has reached a predetermined number of games.    
   
   
       4 . A gaming apparatus comprising: 
 a roulette having a wheel arranged with a plurality of number pockets to which identification numbers are assigned;    a pocket specifying device for specifying one number pocket out of said plurality of number pockets;    a winning-number determination device for determining an identification number assigned to the number pocket that said pocket specifying device has specified, as a winning number;    a counting device for counting a continuous number of games of the identical identification number determined continuously as the winning number by said winning-number determination device; and    a second prize-offering device for offering a prize, when the continuous number of games counted by said counting device has reached a predetermined number of games.    
   
   
       5 . A control method of a gaming apparatus which comprises a roulette and an expected-number-of-games input device that allows an input of an expected number of games of an identical result determined continuously with said roulette, comprising the steps of: 
 determining a result of a game with the roulette;    counting a continuous number of games of the identical result determined continuously; and    offering a prize, when the counted continuous number of games is identical to an expected number of games inputted through said expected-number-of-games input device.    
   
   
       6 . A control method of a gaming apparatus which comprises a roulette having a wheel arranged with a plurality of number pockets to which identification numbers are assigned, and an expected-number-of-games input device that allows an input of an expected number of games of an identical identification number determined continuously as the winning number with said roulette, comprising the steps of: 
 specifying one number pocket out of said plurality of number pockets;    determining an identification number assigned to the specified number pocket, as the winning number;    counting a continuous number of games of the identical identification number determined continuously as the winning number; and    offering a prize, when the counted continuous number of games is identical to the expected number of games inputted through said expected-number-of-games input device.    
   
   
       7 . A control method of a gaming apparatus which comprises a roulette, comprising the steps of: 
 determining a result of a game with the roulette;    counting a continuous number of games of the identical result determined continuously; and    offering a prize, when the counted continuous number of games has reached a predetermined number of games.    
   
   
       8 . A control method of a gaming apparatus which comprises a roulette having a wheel arranged with a plurality of number pockets to which identification numbers are assigned, comprising the steps of: 
 specifying one number pocket out of said plurality of number pockets;    determining an identification number assigned to the specified number pocket, as a winning number;    counting a continuous number of games of the identical identification number determined continuously as the winning number; and    offering a prize, when the counted continuous number of games has reached a predetermined number of games.
