PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent trouble with feeding of the next ball to a shooting waiting position where a ball still remains. SOLUTION: A ball feeder 18 for a game machine is provided with a guiding path 26 which guides balls introduced from the upper side downward in a line; a discharging port 28 which discharges the balls to the shooting waiting position 14; and a ball sending member 32 arranged between the guiding path 26 and the discharging port. The ball sending member repeats rotation between a ball receiving position for receiving a leading ball B-1 from the guiding path to a ball-receiving part 38 and a put-out position for putting out the received balls from the tip 40A of a put-out surface 40 continuous to the ball receiving part to the discharge port to feed the balls one by one to the shooting waiting position. At the upper end of the discharging port, a guide wall 52 having a guide surface 50 inclined from the side of the shooting waiting position upward toward the side of a guiding path is formed.
