<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a game machine in which smooth game progress can be secured even when game balls are continuously taken in. <P>SOLUTION: In flowing down of a prescribed number of game balls through a plurality of passages, in a game machine which identifies a passing state of a game ball on the basis of a detection patterns of game balls by a passage detection means including a first and a second detection parts arranged at spacings narrower than a size of a game ball along a game ball flowing down direction, whether a game ball passes through each of the plurality of passages in a normal state and simultaneously whether the passage is a consecutive state are determined. When the passage is in a consecutive state, flowing down of game balls in the passage wherein the consecutive passage is generated is stopped, and then flowing down of game balls through any passage is restarted to complete flowing down of a prescribed number of game balls. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT |
