Abstract:
A pachinko machine having a simulated stage, a simulated launcher and a simulated ball or simulated balls which are to appear on a display screen of an electronic display device upon execution of instructions by a microprocessor; wherein the simulated stage is partitioned into an entry region, an exit region and an intermediate region interconnecting the entry region and the exit region; wherein the simulated ball after entry into the simulated stage is to transit from the entry region to the exit region following a transition path; wherein the transition path is one of a plurality of transition paths available and the transition paths are associated with transition probabilities which are defined in a transition matrix.

Claim (Index 18):
A method of devising a pachinko machine on a machine comprising a processor, a display device, a data storage device and a user interface, wherein the method comprises a processor executing stored instructions:\n to generate a simulated scene on the display device as a simulated playing field, wherein the simulated scene is divided into an entry region, an exit region and an intermediate region interconnecting the entry region and the exit region; wherein the entry region comprises a plurality of entry cells, the exit region comprises a plurality of cells, and the intermediate region comprises a plurality of intermediate cells; and to generate one simulated object or a plurality of simulated objects on the display device, to launch a simulated object into the entry region as a launched object and to move the launched object through the intermediate region and then to exit via or on traversing through the exit region; and wherein the processor is to execute stored instructions to move the launched object into one of the plurality of entry cells upon receipt of a trigger signal, wherein each entry cell has an associated entry probability which is predetermined and the plurality of entry cells has a sum of entry probabilities equals to one; wherein the launched object is to move through the simulated scene in one of a plurality of predetermined transition paths and each transition path is defined by a plurality of field cells each having associated incoming probabilities and outgoing probabilities which are predetermined; and wherein the incoming probabilities and outgoing probabilities are preset or prescribed in a predetermined transition probability matrix.
