<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a counting processor, which performs counting processing in such a manner as to exclude a foul game ball from the number of played balls. <P>SOLUTION: Every time when one game ball is shot from a shooting device, the number of balls in hand of a player is updated by substracting "1" from the number of balls in hand and adding the number of prize balls, and the updated number is displayed on a ball-in-hand number display unit. Particularly, the processor includes a foul ball detection sensor 35 which detects, when a shot game ball 29 is recovered in a foul ball recovery pocket 37 as a foul ball without reaching a game ball, the presence of the foul ball 29; and a game ball data processing unit which adds, when the foul ball is detected by the foul ball detection sensor 35, "1" to the number of balls in hand. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT |
