PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To appropriately perform a power-off saving process even when power goes off in the middle of communication between a sub substrate and a device (peripheral substrate) of a game machine.SOLUTION: A game machine comprises: a power-off preprocessing section that includes a process execution state monitoring part for monitoring an execution state of a communication process, and a time lag setting part for setting a predetermined time lag for the communication process, and allows a power-off processing section to start backup at least after execution of the communication process is completed; and a power-off processing initiating section that allows the power-off preprocessing section to start processing based on a predetermined signal from a power supply section. The power-off preprocessing section is kept on standby after initiation by the power-off process initiating section until a lapse of the time lag, and allows the power-off processing section to start the backup after the lapse of the time lag. |
