Gaming Machine Capable of Executing a Game Consuming Credits and Control Method Thereof

Abstract

A gaming machine of the present invention comprises: a memory; an output device; and a controller programmed so as to execute the processing of: (a) executing a game; (b) determining a payout to be offered based upon a result of the game in each execution of the game; (c) storing payout data showing the payout determined in each the game into the memory; (d) determining whether or not the payout determined in each the game is not less than a prescribed amount based upon the payout data stored in the memory; (e) determining a deduction amount deducted in offering the payout determined to be not less than the prescribed amount in the processing (d); and (f) outputting information on the deduction amount determined in the processing (e) by the output device.

1 . A gaming machine comprising:
 a memory capable of storing data;   an output device capable of outputting information; and   a controller programmed so as to execute the processing of:   (a) executing a game;   (b) determining a payout to be offered based upon a result of said game in each execution of said game;   (c) storing payout data showing the payout determined in each said game into said memory;   (d) determining whether or not the payout determined in each said game is not less than a prescribed amount based upon said payout data stored in said memory;   (e) determining a deduction amount which is deducted in offering the payout determined to be not less than the prescribed amount in said processing (d); and   (f) outputting information on the deduction amount determined in said processing (e) by said output device.   
   
   
       2 . The gaming machine according to  claim 1 , wherein
 said output device is a display capable of displaying an image, and   said processing (f) is processing of displaying on said display an image showing information on the deduction amount determined in said processing (e).   
   
   
       3 . The gaming machine according to  claim 1 ,
 wherein   said processing (f) is processing of issuing a recorded medium, in which information on the deduction amount determined in said processing (e) is recorded, by said output device.   
   
   
       4 . A gaming machine comprising:
 an input device capable of inputting an operation;   a memory capable of storing data;   an output device capable of outputting information; and   a controller programmed so as to execute the processing of:   (a) executing a game;   (b) determining a payout to be offered based upon a result of said game in each execution of said game;   (c) executing switching of an audit mode and a non-audit mode based upon an input from said input device;   (d) storing payout data showing the payout determined in each said game executed in said audit mode into said memory;   (e) determining whether or not the payout determined in each said game executed in said audit mode is not less than a prescribed amount based upon said payout data stored in said memory;   (f) determining a deduction amount deducted in offering the payout determined to be not less than the prescribed amount in said processing (e); and   (g) outputting information on the deduction amount determined in said processing (f) by said output device.   
   
   
       5 . The gaming machine according to  claim 4 ,
 wherein   said output device is a display capable of displaying an image, and   said processing (g) is processing of displaying on said display an image showing information on the deduction amount determined in said processing (f).   
   
   
       6 . The gaming machine according to  claim 4 ,
 wherein   said processing (g) is processing of issuing a recorded medium, in which information on the deduction amount determined in said processing (f) is recorded, by said output device.   
   
   
       7 . A method for controlling the gaming machine, comprising the steps of:
 (a) executing a game;   (b) determining a payout to be offered based upon a result of said game in each execution of said game;   (c) storing payout data showing the payout determined in each said game into a memory capable of storing data;   (d) determining whether or not the payout determined in each said game is not less than a prescribed amount based upon said payout data stored in said memory;   (e) determining a deduction amount deducted in offering the payout determined to be not less than the prescribed amount in said step (d); and   (f) outputting information on the deduction amount determined in said step (e) by an output device capable of outputting information.   
   
   
       8 . The method for controlling the gaming machine according to  claim 7 ,
 wherein   said step (f) is a step of displaying an image showing information on the deduction amount determined in said step (e) on a display capable of displaying an image.   
   
   
       9 . The method for controlling the gaming machine according to  claim 7 ,
 wherein   said step (f) is a step of issuing a recorded medium, in which information on the deduction amount determined in said step (e) is recorded, by said output device.
