<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To achieve smooth game progress, to automatically and surely supply a caught game medium to prevent the interruption of game progress and to suppress complication of a structure related to catching detection and an increase in the capacity of a program and a processing load related to the removal of the caught medium. <P>SOLUTION: The game machine includes: a supply regulating means for regulating the supply of game media; a medium detecting means including a pair of medium detecting parts for detecting game media; a passing permission period management means for managing a passing permission period that permits the passing of game media; and a supply control means for controlling the supply regulating means. The most upstream medium detecting part detects the game medium caught by the supply regulating means, and the supply control means terminates supply according to the detection of a basic passing phase by the medium detecting means, detects catching of the game medium based on the detection of the caught medium and detection of the termination of the passing permission period, starts resupply of game media according to the detection of catching, and terminates resupply according to the detection of an irregular passing phase by the medium detecting means. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT |
